Struggle in the Steam Age

　　 At eight o'clock in the evening, the sky was completely dark. Under the dim light of the oil lamp in Lawrence's room, he read the last page of the thick book in his hand, and then closed "Introduction to Alchemy."

Thanks to the knowledge and proficiency of the Baize bloodline, he can read this "Introduction to Alchemy" in just four hours. Of course, this is also a real introductory book with this book. Lots of pictures related.

　　 After taking a few sips from the water glass next to him, Lawrence put the book on the bed and emptied the tabletop. Then he took out several packages under the table and opened them one by one.

　　 Except for the gun repair box and the bullet box, the rest is a bunch of weird items he just bought from the logistics.

　　Silver powder, holy salt, garlic essence, rose seeds, mistletoe leaves... In addition to these materials, there is a complete set of simplest alchemy vessels. After checking the items he bought before, he grabbed a handful of golden bullets from the bullet box and arranged them on the table.

　　 This is Lawrence's task tonight. According to the suggestions of those seniors, he is going to use the method of making enchanted bullets to improve combat effectiveness in a short time.

　　In fact, Lawrence has been in a state of anxiety since he came to the world. After all, the previous attack that caused him to cross has been warning him that even if the world is still calm on the whole, there are still many dangerous and evil things secretly. If you don't want to be involved in an attack inexplicably and lose your life, making yourself stronger is the only way out.

　　 The fastest way to become stronger in a short period of time is to use firearms. Of course, it is too difficult to transform firearms or create a magic firearm, and it requires too much professional knowledge. For Lawrence now, it is the most suitable way to modify the bullet according to the method written in the book "Introduction to Alchemy".

　　 "Huh—" Lawrence took a deep breath, and then sat on the chair by the table. After catching that set of alchemy props, he moved into action.

　　 Crush, stir, mix, and distill. After a series of operations, he obtained a small bottle of a syrup-like viscous silver-blue liquid with silver powder as the main material.

"Okay, the ingredients are ready, the next step is to engrave the runes." After extinguishing the alcohol lamp on the table and packing up the alchemy utensils used just now, Lawrence leaned heavily on the back of the chair and rubbed his temples. , And then moved his finger.

　　 Rested for a few minutes, after confirming that he adjusted to the best condition, Lawrence began to enchant the bullet. He first took out a bullet and fixed it on the wooden fixture with the bullet head up. Then adjust the position of the mirror-like headband similar to the dentist that you just bought, and fix the reflected light on the bullet.

　　 After that, he took out the rune-engraving pen he had just bought. This was the part that spent the most money on buying this set of alchemy tools. If you look closely, you can see a little silver-blue light on the nib.

　　 "That's why the mithril plus simple enchantment cost me 30 yuan, which is still a discount on the internal price." After voicing, he dipped the pen nib into the viscous liquid just made.

　　 Dip the liquid, Lawrence put magic power into the enchanting pen. Under the effect of the magic on the pen, those viscous liquids immediately became as smooth as ordinary ink, and at the same time, they emitted a faint blue cold light. Seeing the liquid whose state was changing, he took a deep breath and quickly sketched it on the bullet.

　　 An uncomplicated rune appeared on the bullet with the movement of the pen tip, and finished with the last stroke. Lawrence immediately took out the holy water mixed with holy salt and sprinkled it on it.

　　 After a burst of light, the rune on the warhead slowly penetrated into the bullet. In just one breath, the rune disappeared, but the entire bullet turned silvery white.

　　 "Awesome!" Lawrence clenched his fist and cheered softly, then took off the bullet and performed an identification technique. As a result, the feedback he received clearly told him that he had obtained an evil bullet.

　　 Then Lawrence began to do the same with the remaining bullets, but unfortunately not every bullet succeeded. After he consumed all the potions he prepared, he produced a total of eight ordinary exorcism bullets and four enhanced exorcism bullets. In addition, he wasted six bullets because of his unskilledness at the beginning.

　　The enhanced version of the exorcism bullet was that when he was halfway through the production, he suddenly remembered that the book pointed out that if some special raw materials were added, the effect of the potion might be changed, but the prerequisite was that the added thing must be the same as the original potion.

　　 Then, Lawrence cut his finger away on a whim and dripped a few drops of blood into the potion. Because of the exorcism effect of the Baize bloodline itself, after adding blood, the effect of the whole medicine becomes stronger.

　　 However, in contrast, the failure rate of making bullets has greatly increased. Only two of the previous ten ordinary exorcism bullets failed, but only half of the eight enhanced bullets succeeded.

　　 In short, with the addition of Shirasawa's wisdom and the talent of the samurai muscles and bones, Lawrence produced a total of twelve alchemy bullets tonight. In addition to the previously purchased bullets, he now has a total of eighteen ordinary exorcism bullets and four enhanced exorcism bullets.

　　 After putting the manufactured bullets into the bullet box of the waist leather. Lawrence put those failed products aside and prepared to throw them into a special place tomorrow. After all, after the production failed, the bullet head was as pitted as if it had been corroded by sulfuric acid, and could only be thrown away as a dangerous waste.

"God, it's 11 o'clock, now I have to go to bed quickly." Looking at the wall clock hanging on the wall, Lawrence quickly packed up a pile of things on the table, UU reading www.uukanshu.com then climbed into bed after washing up. He turned off the oil lamp he had brought from the table to the bedside table and fell asleep.

　　 Lawrence got up early the next morning. Because yesterday he promised Sergeant Hans to visit his home, he needs to get up early to have enough time to solve the problem.

　　 After entering the cafeteria as usual, Lawrence happened to meet the middle-aged priest who received him in the Faith Department yesterday and recommended him to "Introduction to Alchemy".

　　 "Ha, good morning!" After seeing Lawrence, the priest proactively greeted him. It was obvious that the priest was a warm and friendly person by nature.

　　 "Good morning, sir." Lawrence greeted him quickly when he saw him greet himself. Then the two people sat at a table and chatted.

　　 During the chat, Lawrence learned that yesterday's case has now been resolved due to timely information. The police, with the cooperation of the Church of Knowledge, captured the murderer early this morning. The murderer was a dancer of the victim. She has admitted that she killed the lead actor out of jealousy and hoped that she had used torture. Get the favor of the devil.

"But after our inspection, we found that ordinary people are no different, and there is no trace of pollution from the lower space. It's just that as we brought her into the police station, she kept proclaiming that she was favored by a great being." The priest said. "I think she may just have some hallucinations. After all, this ceremony is not always successful in historical records. But for safety reasons, we finally put her in a special cell in the police station."

　　 "That's good." Lawrence nodded, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. It is indeed a pleasant thing to prevent the spread of evil for one's own reasons.
