Lord Harland.

Chapter 91 Explosion Rune
Baron Paul's grandfather was once a four-ring magician in the Celtic United Kingdom.

The magical organization active in the Celtic United Kingdom is called the Heart of the Elements.

Although the Elemental Heart is not as powerful as the Makholm Kingdom's magic conference, it is also a super organization in the magic field.

The national strength of the Celtic United Kingdom far exceeds that of the Grant Kingdom, and is almost comparable to the entire Orc Empire.

Paul's grandfather's job was to make magic bombs for the Elemental Heart.

It's a pity that Paul's grandfather lost his life because of the explosion experiment, and caused trouble by blowing up the three-story mage tower.

The family had to leave the Celtic United Kingdom and took refuge in the Grant Kingdom.

Paul's uncle became a wild magician, and he was still serving the royal family of Grant in the royal capital, so he didn't dare to continue researching alchemy bombs.

Because of the psychological shadow of the alchemy bomb, Uncle Paul, who was involved in the alchemy bomb, did not read the research notes and magic books left by Paul's father at all.

This scroll is from Baron Paul's mother.

Her mother has no magical talent, but she likes magic from the bottom of her heart.

After decades of research and reading of his father's notes, the magic runes inscribed on the magic bomb were restored through the knowledge recorded in the notes.

This scroll records the magic runes.

To make a magic bomb, you need to configure explosives first, and then engrave explosive runes on the magic metal.

The explosives are then wrapped in magic metal and ignited with a fuse.

Explosive runes and explosive formula are two difficulties in making magic bombs.

The better the dynamite recipe, the closer the magic rune is to its essence, and the stronger the explosive power of the magic bomb.

Paul's grandfather was in danger of his life in a magic experiment in order to research a better explosive formula.

This scroll only records the explosive rune, there is no formula for explosives, and it cannot be used to make magic bombs.

Paul has no magical talent, and he doesn't like magic very much.

Although this scroll is very precious to magicians, it has no practical value to Paul.

It is very cost-effective to exchange blueprints for heavy trebuchets that are of great significance to the territory.

Richard and Sophia are both magicians. In Grant Kingdom, learning any magic knowledge is very difficult.

Even Sophia had never seen the explosion rune before. The two of them looked at it for a while, and immediately felt itchy and addicted to magic knowledge.

Although they didn't know the authenticity of the explosive rune, Richard and Sophia immediately agreed to Paul's request.

The two parties immediately completed the transaction, and both felt that they had made a good deal.

Paul didn't even eat lunch, and hurried back to the territory, fearing that the other party would repent.

"Sophia, I know a formula for explosives, and I don't know if it can be used to make a magic bomb? If the magic bomb is successfully made, it will become the most lethal method for the territory. The help that the magic bomb brings to the territory should be It is stronger than the heavy trebuchet."

"I heard that the manufacture of magic explosives requires a precious mineral called flint. This mineral is scarce, and almost all of it is found in the dwarves' territories of the Western Continent. How much flint do you need for the explosive formula you know?"

"The recipe I know only uses sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal. It's quite simple to make, and doesn't need to use fire spar."

"I have seen scenes of magic bombs exploding several times in the Kingdom of Makholm. Now that the territory is ready, a testing ground can be established immediately, and magic experiments can be started immediately."

After getting the explosive rune scroll, Li Cha and Sophia discussed it and immediately started making magic bombs.

The territory of Harland can produce some low-level magic metal blood steel, which can just engrave explosive runes.

After more than ten days of research, Sophia used magic to create a small steelmaking furnace. Using the energy of the magic spar to smelt blood steel into molten steel, she used the lost-wax method to cast thin-skinned steel balls the size of watermelons. Magical runes are engraved on it.

Li Cha also made the gunpowder known in his previous life, put it inside through the small hole on the blood steel ball, compacted it carefully, and finally installed the fuse.
When it was time to test the power of the magic bomb, Richard and Sophia came to a deserted place, and immediately avoided it after lighting the fuse.

There was only a rumbling sound, and rubble from the explosion splashed from all around.A small tree nearby was actually blown off.

"The power is far inferior to the magic bomb that uses flint stone as the explosive. But the advantage is that the explosive is cheap to manufacture and can barely be used in actual combat."

The black powder made by Richard is the original black powder formula, one nitrate, two sulfur and three charcoals.

The quality of this black powder is poor, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

There is no shortage of sulfur ore in the northern region. This mineral is widely used as a dye and the price is very low.

A sulfur mine was also discovered on the edge of Harland's territory, near the United Territory of Shaprafair.

There is no shortage of charcoal in northern Xinjiang.

Richard is going to purify the sulfur first, and then use charcoal made from various trees to do experiments.

Which charcoal works best?
There is not too much shortage of nitrate mines in northern Xinjiang, and there are large areas of nitrate soil resources on the two riverbeds in the territory.

In addition, places such as house corners and walls, livestock pens, public toilets and other places can produce some nitrate soil. With the development of the breeding industry, there will be no shortage of manure.

With the manure, the composting method can be used to make nitrate fields.

There is no shortage of raw materials, Li Cha is constantly improving the formula of explosives, and the process of producing gunpowder is also constantly changing.

In the end, Li Cha discovered that the charcoal fired from alder trees was the best for making gunpowder.

With this set of techniques, the power of the explosives has become very impressive.

After Sophia's appraisal, it can already reach half of the genuine magic bomb.

Although the dynamite was successfully produced, the output of the magic bomb was very low.

Including Wendy, there are only three magicians in Harland's territory, and they can draw up to a dozen explosive runes every day.

In addition, the manufacture of blood steel shell is also more difficult.

The production of blood steel is insufficient, and it is necessary to make enchanted armor, and the craft of making bomb shells is also relatively difficult.

On average, Richard, Sophia, and Wendy together make two or three magic bombs a day.

Although the daily output is very low, it has accumulated over time.

By the time the orcs invaded, the number of magic bombs saved was already very impressive.

If thousands of magic bombs were thrown into the battlefield at one time, it would be enough to severely damage a main orc army.
