Chapter 403 The Firepower Revolution of the Magic Gun
On the high platform of the service hall, Youzan Gululu rolled in.

Artur hurriedly reported: "Teacher, there are 210 and seven teams registered for individual magic weapons, and the number is still increasing. Most of them are magic craftsmen inherited from the mainland, and some magic craftsmen from Shadow City."

"These teams came up with all sorts of strange ideas based on the Fini magic gun. The 79 teams in the hall now either have very interesting ideas worth exploring, or have very mature plans that can be finished soon, or have an understanding of magic technology. It’s very deep, but I haven’t found the right direction yet, and it’s worth investing in them.”

Artur said in a regretful tone: "It would be great if the chief cardinal was here. He sees farther and deeper than us, and should be able to see at a glance which solutions are the most valuable."

"It's not what it used to be, Arthur, the Chief Cardinal can no longer work with you on design, and he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to the details of technology research and development." The Lich Heroic Spirit said seriously: "Trust the masses, the wisdom of the masses is infinite. .”

Looking down at the thousands of people busy around the workbench in the hall, You Zan sighed with satisfaction: "This is the momentum that the pursuit of truth should have. Thinking about the past, uh... I can't bear to look back."

It said again: "The focus of my attention is the enchantment and the magic cannon. I can only take a brief look here and talk about the most valuable solution."

Artur nodded and said: "The biggest problem with the magic gun is that it doesn't do enough damage. Most of the improvement plans have chosen the continuous firing route. Two of the plans are the most eye-catching. One is Mikhail who claims to have the inheritance of the god of dwarves. , one is Stoner, that is, the Stoner who made the illusion series of "Magical Aesthetics", and he is still on the wanted list of the Mage Union."

"I think there is another plan that is very promising." Hrizar, the person in charge of the individual weapon group of the research institute, disagreed: "The wizard apprentice named Ma Xisen proposed the concept of the Void Spirit Magic Gun. The spirit replaces the magic circle and breaks the..."

Artur interrupted him: "We have been doing pre-research on Void Spirit technology. Of course, we know that the direction of Void Spirit has a great future. But each Void Spirit core is different. Before the Void Spirit language is fully formed, Voidling programming is very troublesome, and there is no way to use it on a large scale. You can’t train every user to be a wizard or a summoning magician first, right?”

"Hrizar, your problem is that you always look far away and don't pay attention to your feet. Now we need new weapons that can be put into mass production immediately!"

Being reprimanded by his former junior, Hrizar dared not express his dissatisfaction.Artur is now the vice president of the research institute and the chief member of the Magic Work Committee.And he is just an ordinary committee member, still working hard to perform, hoping to vote for Youzan's school and become Arthur's junior.

"Artur is right, don't be so ambitious," Youzan said, "You spent so much time getting some red armaments, but it didn't help this war."

It whimpered its semicircular head a few times, and it didn't know what emotion it was expressing: "Chief Cardinal, sometimes you can't avoid slapping your head when you make a decision. After all, you are a mortal."

Hrizar still wanted to defend himself, but Youzan even sprayed on Li Qi, so he had to shut up obediently.

You Zan said again: "Since that Maheson understands Void Spirit, he should be recruited into the research institute."

"That guy's origin is unclear, and the standard-bearer's review found that he is not only a wizard apprentice, but also may have mixed with an arcanist." Artur said: "I still let him join, and observe for a while."

"Well, we must maintain such vigilance," You Zan said righteously: "Our pursuit of truth is to benefit mortals and make the world a better place, not just to satisfy curiosity! Those who want to oppress mortals and destroy the world And the guy who studies the truth is an evil enemy that we must completely eliminate!"

Artur and Hrizar held their chests high and answered in unison.

"I'll leave it to Ferizal here, Artur, you accompany me up to see the progress of the magic cannon and enchantment technology."

Youzan took Artur away, and Hrizar held on to the railing, overlooking the busy scene in the hall, and the grievance and unwillingness in his heart gradually dissipated.

Indeed, the most important thing now is to obtain new weapons that can be mass-produced immediately, and this important task is falling on his shoulders.

………………

Marie Square, the basement of the Adventurer Service Center, the hall originally planned to place the portal, has now been changed to a magic gun testing ground.

Some design teams came with a molding plan. After a little adjustment, they quickly produced a prototype gun and came here for testing.

Khrizar and the members of the project team are reviewing the works of Mikhail's workshop.

"Aka on top..."

The owner of the workshop, Mikhail 51, chanted the name of the god of dwarf craftsmen, and kissed the sample gun in his hand: "Bless my Mikhail incarnate thousands of times, and reappear the brilliance of your skills in the world!"

Looking at the sample gun in his hand, Hrizar frowned slightly. It looked too bad, and it was too bulky.

The chubby receiver is thicker than an arm, and the magic diffuser used to absorb the impact of magic power behind the receiver is also made stupidly big and clumsy.The flame suppressor in front of the receiver is directly square, and the magazine placed horizontally under the receiver is also square and straight.Only the trigger, grip and butt looked pleasing to the eye, but they were imitated from the old model of Fini magic gun.

"Mikhail Automatic Magic Gun Test Type [-]", the technology unique to Mikhail's workshop is the receiver, including "Mikhail's Simplified Wind Arrow Array" and the magic device that realizes continuous firing.

In addition, the magic disperser, flame suppressor and general-purpose magic-god switching device integrated on this sample gun are the crystallization of wisdom of other magic craftsmen.

The magic diffuser is the inspiration obtained by magic craftsmen from the "Law of Origin Stone Sensing Area". The magic metal is made into a layer-by-layer scroll-shaped device, which increases the area where the magic metal contacts the magic impact, so that the magic impact User impact is greatly reduced.

The demand for the flame suppressor stems from the fact that the magical flame of the magic gun is too obvious, which easily exposes the target, making it difficult for professionals who are good at hiding to use this civilian magic weapon.

Smart magic craftsmen discovered that making the magic diffuser into a barrel and installing it in front of the receiver can not only effectively reduce the magic flame, but also block the interference of the external magic field and improve shooting accuracy.

These two improvements appeared last year, but because magic metals are expensive, they cannot be popularized on a large scale, and only a few rich-pocketed magic gun enthusiasts can enjoy them.

Now Fei Gong claims that copper and mithril can be used casually in the design, and the craftsmen naturally take it as standard.

The universal excitation device is the direction that magic craftsmen have been working hard on. In the past, the conversion of gods and demons with magic tools had to be limited to specific magic.If regardless of the specific divine technique, as long as the divine power of the same attribute can activate the magic circle, then not only will it be more convenient, but it will also make the application of the magic circle's divine power more diverse.

Magic craftsmen have also proposed many solutions before, but the designs are too complicated and consume a lot of magic metal, and some solutions even use ethereal spirits, which cannot be applied on a large scale.

After Li Qi obtained the low-level technical information on the conversion of gods and demons in the Storm Islands, the design of the general-purpose device became more concise, but it still required a lot of mithril.Based on the previous price, an activation device would cost dozens of gold bushels, far exceeding the price of a magic gun.

This new design was released by Fei Gong for free, and the price of Mithril has dropped to the level of black iron, so it has become a standard part of the new magic gun.

"For my Mikhail automatic magic gun, the receiver is divided into two layers. The inner layer and the outer layer are connected by bearings. Two Mikhail streamlined wind arrow arrays are installed on the inner layer."

"After the first magic circle is activated, it can not only push the bullets to fly out, but the remaining power of the wind element can also push the inner layer to rotate, allowing the second magic circle to turn down and connect with the bomb supply device."

"The trigger controls the burst state. If you don't pull the trigger and use instant spells, it will be in a single shot state. If you pull the trigger and use continuous spells, it will be in a burst state."

Mikhail's explanation made Khrizar's frown deepen, and he asked: "Is this part still not improved? With continuous spells, it only takes effect at the moment when the magic circle is in place, which means that there is a big difference." Part of the power was wasted. A trainee superhuman can only shoot up to fifty consecutive shots with the Fini magic gun, can you shoot fifty bullets in a row with your gun?"

"More than a hundred shots!"

The thick and bearded man grinned and said: "If it is less than the single-shot magic gun, then it is a failure of the automatic magic gun! The power consumption of continuous spells is less than that of instant spells. My gun is still A bigger and better magic diffuser is installed, and the impact on the user is smaller!"

It's just an initial test, and it's still too early to be finalized. Khrizar didn't say much, and asked Mikhail to start the test.

Holding the rough "Mikhail automatic magic gun" with alternate squares and circles, the big man aimed at a target about 100 meters away, pulled the trigger, and let out a dark red light from the palm holding the handle.

The buzzing sound of the magic gun was the rapid rotation of the inner layer of the receiver.A series of light blue rays of light kept flickering at the muzzle of the gun, firing out rounds of bullets.

Although it is known that the biggest feature of the new generation of magic guns is continuous firing, this speed still makes Ferizal and his subordinates, as well as other people watching by the side, gasp.

Originally, the "burst" understood by most people is at best one shot per second. If it can reach two shots per second, it is already terrible.

Think about it, a three-level wind arrow every second is enough to make it difficult for a hero-level transcendent to parry.If the speed is doubled, even if you wear a full-body mithril armor with a hardening spell attached, or prop up a spell barrier, it won't last long.

But now this automatic magic gun is so fast that it is difficult to distinguish the flames of each shot, it is estimated that there are at least four or five shots per second.It is equivalent to four or five people shooting at the same time with a magic gun that shoots once per second. What a terrifying thing this is! ?
In less than half a minute, perhaps less than 20 seconds, the magazine with a capacity of one hundred rounds was empty.

Mikhail shook his body, let out a mouthful of foul air, and laughed loudly: "How!? How!?"

Looking at the wooden target in front, there are only bare shelves left, and the stone wall behind the target is dotted with large bullet holes.

Wait, spread out?
Hrizar used Bili-Boy to enlarge and project the situation on the stone wall into the air. At least half of the bullet holes were far away from the target, and the farthest was about ten meters away.

Facing Khrizar's questioning eyes and other people's low-pitched comments, Mikhail said awkwardly: "That... the receiver needs to rotate, and it is really difficult to control the accuracy."

He said confidently again: "Anyway, it's about fighting the undead. There's a big area everywhere, and you can hit them no matter what!"

Indeed it is...

Hrizar didn't delve into it, and asked again: "How heavy is it?"

The big man flung the automatic magic gun lightly: "It's only sixteen kilograms."

Hrizar twitched the corner of his mouth, that's all?

"Daniel, try it," he said to the youngest subordinate, "don't force it."

Daniel Conrad jumped out excitedly. Although he was still studying in the preparatory school of Scarlet University, he was already a senior magic gun tester, and he was involved in the initial magic gun test.

Mikhail replaced Daniel's crimson divine power grip with the magic gun, loaded the magazine, picked up the gun and handed it to him, and said worriedly: "Little guy, can you do it?"

Daniel said contemptuously: "When I tested the magic gun, you didn't know what the magic gun was."

With a whoosh, the little boy picked up the magic gun and pointed it at another target.For him with extraordinary strength, it is not too heavy a burden to carry sixteen kilograms for the time being.

Daniel pulled the trigger and cast a continuous purification technique. He only knew this first-level divine technique.

The muzzle spewed out a light blue flame, and the humming sound and the clanging sound of bullets rubbing against the receiver mixed into a palpitating continuous whistling.

The violent shooting made Daniel scream excitedly, but the scream soon became sharper.

He couldn't control the direction of the muzzle...

The rapid rotation of the receiver caused the body of the gun to vibrate violently, and the blue flames from the muzzle of the gun violently froze, drawing irregular lines on the wall.At this time, it was impossible to say that it was accurate, and Daniel's body was shaking.

Hrizar yelled, "Stop it—!"

Mikhail yelled: "Release the trigger—!"

When they called, both of them subconsciously propped up the protective barrier, and at the same time squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.Those who did not have protective spells fell directly to the ground.

Daniel's eyes stared straight, and he couldn't stop at all. The magic gun fired back and forth between the ceiling and the floor, splashing clouds of smoke and dust.

Just over ten seconds seemed as long as a whole day. When the gunfire stopped, Daniel smiled blankly and fell straight to the ground.Foaming from the corner of the mouth, and twitching of the limbs, it is obvious that the divine power was exhausted.

Asking someone to send Daniel to the temple for treatment, Hrizar said: "The direction is fine, but the gun is too heavy, at least it must be reduced to less than ten kilograms. Moreover, the power consumed is too large, and a first-level transcendent can only fire one bullet." Box, that's not enough."

Mikhail defended weakly: "The automatic magic gun is not for such a child..."

A cold voice sounded: "Wrong! As long as they have extraordinary power, even children should be allowed to use automatic magic guns!"

A thin middle-aged man appeared, holding a magic gun in his hand: "Stoner's advanced automatic magic gun, inspire everyone's strength!"

"Your sample gun is also ready?"

Hrizar is very happy, this progress is really good.

"I have already had the idea of ​​forming the mechanical part, and there has been no breakthrough in the magic circle," Stoner said: "I didn't design a new magic circle until Master Artur proposed the law of the magic circle."

Mikhail looked at the magic gun in his hand, shrugged and said, "Can this kind of magic gun fire continuously?"

From the appearance, Stoner's magic gun has not changed much from the previous Fini magic gun. Ni 26 type.

If you look closely, there is still a clear difference.The receiver is a bit thicker, with a magic diffuser and a flame arrester installed, and the gun body is much longer.The overall shape is refined, exuding a delicate and harmonious atmosphere.

"Things that can be done with the help of magic circles, there is no need to use machines." Stoner said with a faint smile: "Your problem is that you rely too much on machines. My advanced wind arrow magic circle uses the principle of magic backflow to achieve Automatic continuous excitation."

Realize automatic bursts through the magic circle! ?
Not only Khrizar was surprised, everyone including Mikhail was shocked.

Mikhail snorted, "It's not very useful, you'll know when you shoot it."

Stoner chuckled and handed the gun to Ferizal: "Please find a first-level professional to test fire."

This time it was a girl, who skillfully put on her own divine power grip, and her shooting posture with her shoulders and head tilted was also very standard.

Squeeze the trigger, the gun flame flashes.The previous vibrating sound was gone, and the muzzle of the gun was also extremely stable, and the blue light went straight to the target. It was not stable, but the rate of fire was slower.

After experiencing the shock of the high rate of fire of Mikhail's automatic magic gun, everyone felt that the rate of fire of Stoner's gun seemed too slow.Of course, there is actually a speed close to three rounds per second. A magazine of thirty rounds can be fired in about ten seconds, but compared with the violent firepower of a hundred rounds that can be fired in a little longer, it is much worse.

"this is not bad!"

Hrizar applauded on the spot, and said to Stoner: "Let me see your magic circle design."

Stoner handed over a recording chip, and Hrizar inserted it into Bili-Boy, opened it, and took a deep breath.

Stoner proudly said: "The four magic circles are combined into one magic circle group, and the core is Zolder's enhanced wind arrow array. As long as it continues to be activated, it can automatically and continuously generate enhanced wind arrows."

"Too complicated," sighs Hrizar.

Stoner was puzzled: "Didn't you say Mithril can be used casually?"

"But the man-hours for engraving the magic circle have increased a lot, and there are so many detailed designs that are easy to wear and tear." Hrizar shook his head: "If you can't fire a few hundred rounds, there will be problems, and it will be very troublesome to repair."

He made a judgment on the spot: "It needs to be revised again to reduce the complexity of the magic circle and improve reliability."

"Both of your plans are good. Take out the improved sample gun in two days at the latest and continue testing."

Hrizar’s words made the other designers on the sidelines cry out with both envy and lamentation, which meant that Mikhail and Stoner took the lead in entering the next link.

The bidding for the design of the magic gun organized by the Fei Gong this time is not a monopoly, nor is it a one-off sale.If there is a good and mature design, it will be put into production immediately, and it will continue to be tested on the battlefield.

"Is it reliable?"

Holding his own magic gun, Stoner's eyes flashed with heat.

Mikhail raised his sample gun and muttered, "Is it really heavy? Can a child use it?"

Their eyes met inadvertently, as if sparks burst out in the air.

After leaving the test site, one of Khrizar's subordinates suddenly said, "Stoner's plan is quite good, but I think Mikhail's plan has even greater potential."

Hrizar said casually: "How to say?"

The subordinate who looked like a young apprentice said: "If Mikhail's plan is enlarged a little bit, bullets with larger calibers can be fired and placed on the fortress and the parapet..."

Hrizar's eyes lit up: "Yes! Fix it with a bracket, and the weight problem is not a problem! It doesn't matter if it consumes a lot of power. If it's just for defense, the shooter can be replaced at any time!"

The subordinate hesitated again: "But in this way, it is not considered an individual weapon, right?"

Hrizar said loudly: "How can we stick to this? As long as it helps to win this war and improve combat effectiveness, there is no limit to what department it is!"

While talking, the ex-magician thought to himself, this plan must be firmly grasped. In this way, the individual weapon project team can become... the small weapon branch, right?

He eagerly said: "You are very good, what's your name? You will be responsible for this plan, and I will take the lead to support you. Don't make any noise. We have achieved results, and we will surprise Dean Arthur!"

"Thank you committee!"

The joy of the young men was beyond words: "My name is Maxine Harlem."
