Chapter 124 Experimental Musket (Part 1)

“My lord is joking, I have to many thanks fief lord, if it wasn’t for the gold coin you gave me, I wouldn’t even be able to eat!”

Bu Laien is now holding a large piece of meat, full of energy, and a silk blouse. If he is a nobleman, no one will believe it.

“Sir, would you like to sit with me for a while, I just bought a piece of meat from a country hunter, do you want to taste it!”

“many thanks for your kindness” , Bu Laien, I don’t dare to go to your place, the last time I went back, it cost me 4 gold coins, haha!”

Seeing Bu Laien’s elated expression, Gervais remembered going to get the long sword that morning. When Bu Laien was eating breakfast, hard brown bread was his only food, because black bread was too hard to swallow, and he needed to add a bowl of boiling water and eat it while soaking.

“Cough…cough…fief lord, the 4 gold coins I charged you last time were really the cost of strengthening materials. I didn’t charge you an extra copper plate.”

Bu Laien blushed instantly, obviously embarrassed by what Gervais said.

“Just kidding, kidding! Bu Laien, you don’t have to take it seriously.”

Seeing Bu Laien’s reaction was so intense, Gervais remembered that this is another world, not like the one on Earth On the other hand, everyone is accustomed to casual jokes between friends since childhood. In this world, neither nobles nor commoners have the concept of a sense of humor.

Speaking, Gervais raised the musket in his hand and politely declined Bu Laien’s invitation: “I have business now, and I will definitely come to sit with you when I have time in the future.”

“Hey! fief lord, what is in your hand?”

After listening to Gervais’ explanation, Bu Laien finally got rid of the embarrassment, and suddenly saw Gervais shaking the musket and let out a startled sound Hey, I couldn’t help but take two steps forward, my eyes widened, looking towards the musket in Gervais’ hands.

“A musket, a weapon, but it’s just finished and I’m about to test its formidable power!”

Hearing Bu Laien’s surprise, Gervais laughed Up, Bu Laien is unlucky, but his alchemy skills are really nothing to say. Gervais guessed that he must have seen the materials for making muskets, so he was so surprised.

“My lord, is this ‘weapon’ forged with mithril?”

Hearing Gervais say it was a weapon, Bu Laien’s eyes brightened, as an excellent alchemist Master, when he first saw the luster emanating from the barrel of the musket, he concluded that it must be Mithril forging, but he couldn’t imagine why such precious Mithril was used to forge this peculiarly shaped thing without a cutting edge. No spikes, just a Fire Burning Stick.

“Yes, Bu Laien, you read that right, this musket is made of mithril!”

Gervais laughed nodding to Bu Laien, giving him an affirmative answer.

“My lord, can I go and watch you experiment with this weapon.”

Bu Laien is really curious, why Gervais is willing to use mithril to forge this Fire Burning Stick, so that From the appearance, just to forge this Fire Burning Stick-like weapon, it takes Mithril worth 3 gold coins, so he wants to see what kind of formidable power can be exerted by such a price weapon.

“Of course Bu Laien, I will go to the open space outside the castle to experiment now, you can come and watch!”

Bu Laien is also a talent, and a desperate man. Talent, of course Gervais would not object to such a request, so he readily agreed to Bu Laien’s request.

“Thank you fief lord, then I won’t delay you fief lord, I will come and watch when I go back and put the meat away!”

With Gervais’ permission, Bu Laien was very excited, So he gave a salute to Gervais, and quickly moved towards his stone house with a piece of meat.

After Bu Laien left, Gervais didn’t stop and drove directly to the castle. After a short delay in meeting and talking with Bu Laien, Anna’s little maid had already left the castle. He got what Gervais ordered, and waited for Gervais to arrive under the gentle slope of the castle.

After meeting with Anna, Gervais called Ike again and asked him to take ten members of the Guards to watch it, I believe that when they saw the formidable power of the musket, they would understand the training What’s the point of the gun action.

As for the other ordinary guards, today Laurie’s squad is in charge of guarding the castle, while Audrey’s squad is already wearing equipment, according to the items requested by Gervais, and went to the edge of the mountain range to practice the rushing under the load.

Under the leadership of Gervais, the entire group once again came to the open space of the last experimental grenade. The huge explosion crater in the open space has not been filled, because this big crater was caused by Gervais. With the incredible feat of Gervais, no one will spoil the appearance of this place until Gervais gives an order.

“Anna, give me the vest (combat vest) and leather armor first!”

Arriving at the location, Gervais dismounted and came to Anna’s side.

“Here, my lord!”

Ana heard Gervais’s instructions, and quickly took off the battle vest and leather armor from the saddle and handed them to Gervais.

“Ike, send two people to set up a stake next to the big pit and fasten this leather armor to the stake.”

Take over the battle from Anna Vest and leather armor, Gervais turned around and began to tell Ike, the leather armor in his hand was the spoíls of war when he intercepted the Lenny team last time, because Bernard’s recent construction period was full, so these dilapidated The leather armor hasn’t been sent for processing yet, and Gervais just took the leather armor to test the formidable power of the musket.

“Yes, sir!”

Ike took the 10-person bodyguard aside, and after he stood at attention for a while, he heard Gervais’ order and immediately stepped forward to take it After grabbing the leather armor in Gervais’ hands, he ordered two team members and moved towards the center of the open space.

After Ike took away the leather armor, Gervais took out a small leather bag from a pocket of the combat vest. The skin bag was crescent-shaped, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. The round iron tube, which is the characteristic bladder used to hold the gunpowder, unscrewed the seal on the bladder, and Gervais began to reload the musket.

When Gervais was loading the musket, Bu Laien, who had put the meat home, also arrived. Seeing that Gervais was operating the mithril ‘weapon’ with his head down, he took a few steps forward cheekily. , carefully watching Gervais’ every move.

It was also the first time for Gervais to reload a musket, but he had already tried his best to recall the descriptions he had seen online in his previous life a few days ago.

Gervais poured gunpowder into the muzzle first, because it was the first test, Gervais didn’t dare to pour too much, and stopped pouring after a little.

After the gunpowder was filled, Gervais used the iron rod removed from the musket to poke the barrel of the gun forcefully, compacting the gunpowder in the barrel, and after confirming the compaction, he took out a small ball of cotton. It was stuffed into the barrel and compacted again with an iron drill.

After the above work is completed, it is time to put the lead shot into the barrel. After the lead shot is put into the barrel, in order to prevent the lead shot from rolling out when the muzzle is down The lead shot is stuffed with a ball of cotton, which is then compacted with an iron drill.

Rao is that Gervais had already conceived it in his mind many times before, but now, when he did it himself, the process of loading the ammunition took him five minutes. When it was inserted back into the musket, Ike had already returned with two team members. A wooden stake had been erected in the distance, and the leather armor was fixed on the one-meter-five-high stake.

The ammunition was loaded and the target was up. Gervais poured a little gunpowder on the fire door at the end of the barrel, then lit the match, ready to start experimenting with this world’s first musket.

“Anna, Bu Laien, you two cover your ears! Others are not allowed to cover their ears”

Before raising the gun, Gervais suddenly glanced around and commanded road.
