Chapter 229 Lou Gao Surrenders, Hot Weapons Are the Future!

Gengxin City, the headquarters of the Blacksmiths Guild.

In the laboratory.

When he saw that the bullet from the flintlock actually penetrated the target and then shot into the steel wall, penetrating a thickness of more than five centimeters, Lou Gao couldn't help but be shocked.

After reacting, Lou Gao's fat face suddenly turned red due to excitement and excitement. He turned his head and asked Liu Fan hurriedly.

"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, what kind of weapon is this and how was it made?"

Although he knew nothing about the principle of the flintlock gun, he discovered that the bullets fired by the flintlock gun could penetrate steel walls with a thickness of up to five centimeters.

This has exceeded the thickness of ordinary armor plates!

This undoubtedly proves that flintlock bullets can easily penetrate armor!

Compared with ordinary crossbows, which are basically unable to penetrate armor, the power of flintlock guns simply shocked Lou Gao.

After the shock, I was extremely excited!

Of course, Lou Gao didn't know anything about why the blacksmith's status had always been so low.

But I know that this is mainly because the weapons made by the blacksmith are still too weak.

No matter how sharp and strong the weapons made by the blacksmith are, they are often of little help to a powerful soul master, and are of greater use to the army.

But in the world of Douluo Continent, it is the soul master who decides everything.

In other words, a powerful soul master!

If their blacksmiths can only create weapons and armors that are of great help to the army, but cannot create weapons that are of great use to soul masters.

The status of the blacksmith on the mainland is definitely not comparable to that of the soul master, let alone being taken seriously by the soul master.

But if their blacksmiths can create weapons that can be effective against soul masters, or in other words, weapons that can allow ordinary people to threaten soul masters.

This will undoubtedly enable their blacksmiths to be taken seriously by soul masters from now on.

After seeing the power of the flintlock gun in Liu Fan's hand, Lou Gao immediately realized.

The future of blacksmiths may well lie in this strange weapon!

This naturally made Lou Gao very excited and excited.

But in response to Lou Gao's excited and eager inquiry, Liu Fan smiled lightly and said.

"President Lou Gao, I can tell you the name of my weapon. It's called a musket. Specifically, it's a flintlock gun in the musket. But if you ask how you know it, I can't tell you."

"After all, this weapon is a secret of our Star Dragon Sect. If you are not from our Star Dragon Sect, how can I tell you?"

As he said this, Liu Fan couldn't help but show a half-smiling expression.

At this time, Lou Gao also calmed down and couldn't help but feel a little tangled in his heart.

Thinking that Liu Fan had just asked about the blacksmith's future, and then displayed this weapon called a flintlock gun, it was obvious that he wanted to use the flintlock gun to lure him.

But Lou Gao really does this!

Even if the weapon called the flintlock in front of me is not that powerful, it does not contain any information about the future of the blacksmith. It is just a weapon with great power and extremely exquisite design.

Lou Gao will also be extremely curious about this and want to understand its principle.

Even if you want to know the principles, you need to leave the Blacksmith Guild and join other forces.

no way!

The reason why Lou Gao became the president of the Blacksmith Guild was not only his strength, but also his incomparable curiosity and desire to explore various weapons.

After some struggle, Lou Gao couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly.

"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, you win!"

"Your weapon called a flintlock gun is simply too exquisite and too powerful. It is a weapon that I have never seen before. Its principle is probably very different from all the previous weapons of our Blacksmith Guild."

"I really want to understand the principles behind this and how it knows it, but there is still no way to ask the Blacksmith Guild and Gengxin City to join your Star Dragon Sect. I can only join your Star Dragon Sect myself."

"Blacksmith Guild and Gengxin City, our Star Dragon Sect does not require you to join us."

"But it's not just you, President Lou Gao. You, President Lou Gao, also need to promote the flintlock gun to other senior blacksmiths in the Blacksmith Guild."

"If there are other senior blacksmiths who want to learn and research flintlock guns and join our Star Dragon Sect, President Lou Gao, you can't stop them!"

Realizing that Lou Gao couldn't bear it anymore and chose to surrender after seeing the flintlock gun, Liu Fan smiled slightly, but added another sentence.

As for Liu Fan's request, Lou Gao thought about it and chose to accept it.

The principle of this flintlock gun must be very special, and he may not be able to study it alone.

If you want to innovate and use the principle of this flintlock gun to create a more powerful weapon of this kind, I am afraid it will be more difficult.

It might be better if other blacksmiths studied with him.

"Silong, come here!"

After deciding to join the Star Dragon Sect, Lou Gao couldn't help but want to step down from his position as the president of the Blacksmith Guild, so he turned around and yelled at the door.

Soon, amid a burst of hurried footsteps, the door to the reception room was suddenly pushed open.

Outside the door, a strong man quickly ran over and asked quickly.

"Teacher, what do you want from me?"

"It's nothing. From now on, you will be the president of the Blacksmith Guild. I am tired of being in the guild. I am going to travel across the continent to find a future as a blacksmith!"

Lou Gao said impatiently.

"Also, go and inform all the blacksmiths in the guild who are above the senior blacksmith level who are still in Gengxin City. I will hold a meeting in the blacksmith guild tonight!"

"Teacher!"

Silong was confused and wanted to ask what was going on.

But Lou Gao fooled Silong in a few moves and asked Silong to go and inform people.

After Silong left, Lou Gao's fat face was full of excitement and excitement. He rubbed his hands, turned his head and looked at Liu Fan, and said directly.

"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, I have now resigned from the position of president of the Blacksmith Guild. From now on, I will join your Xinglong Sect!"

"Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, can you tell me the general principle and design of this flintlock rifle now, and tell me how it was made?"

"Hehe."

Liu Fan smiled softly and did not hide it anymore.

"The principle of the flintlock is not difficult, but its driving force has changed."

"Ordinary crossbows essentially rely on human power to pull the bowstring to shoot arrows, but one is instant, and the other can temporarily retain the arrow, making it easier to aim."

"But the power of the arrows that can be shot by ordinary people alone is still limited."

"So I want to change a method, such as making a sturdy iron cylinder first, putting a small steel cone similar to an arrow in it, and then putting something that can cause an explosion at the end."

"After the thing that can cause an explosion is detonated, the power of the explosion pushes the small steel cone in the iron cylinder, and the small cone is shot out. Isn't the power generated greater than the arrow shot by human power pulling the bowstring?"

"And this flintlock is the result of this weapon design principle."

"The main body connected to this iron cylinder, I call it a musket, the explosive inside, I call it gunpowder or dynamite, and the small metal cone Cone, I call it a bullet. "

"The earliest muskets used a matchlock to ignite the explosive inside. I call this kind of musket a matchlock gun, and the current musket uses flint to ignite, so it is called a flintlock gun. "

"And this kind of weapon that uses explosion as power, I call it: thermal weapons! "

"Compared to bows and crossbows that are limited by materials and user strength, thermal weapons are powered by the explosion of explosives. "

"And this kind of explosive that can produce explosions is more powerful, and can be stacked, so the power can be said to be infinite! "

"The flintlock gun uses explosives to explode in the iron barrel, pushing the bullet inside and shooting it out, but the barrel of the flintlock gun is still too small, and the gunpowder that can be loaded is relatively small. "

"President Lou Gao can think about it. If you make a fist-sized metal ball, fill it with explosives, and then throw it out to detonate, will it be more powerful? "

"In my opinion, thermal weapons are the future of blacksmiths! "(End of this chapter)
