Starting from the awakening of the blue silver grass

Chapter 49 The Eye of Ice and Fire, the Birth of Smokeless Gunpowder

In the valley, there is a small hot spring.

The shape of the hot spring is divided into two parts, and in this oval pool, the colors of the hot spring water are milky white and vermilion respectively.

What's even more strange is that although they are in the same pool, they are clearly separated, they do not invade each other, and they always stay on their side, just like the yin and yang fish of Tai Chi.

Streams of water vapor billowing upwards were generated at the location between the two hot springs. They continued to rise upward until the mountain pass slowly dissipated without being too conspicuous.

Here, it is the Eye of Ice and Fire!

"Well, like a mandarin duck pot, one side is mushroom soup and the other is red soup..."

Gong Teng, who was held in Dugu Bo's hands, touched his chin and said inwardly.

"This is the old man's medicine garden. You can use the medicinal materials in it as you like, but be careful not to damage the environment here, otherwise the old man will be very angry and the consequences will be serious!"

Dugu Bo said with a warning.

Afterwards, Dugu Bo put Gong Teng on the edge of the medicine garden, turned around and prepared to leave.

But in the next second, Gong Teng grabbed Dugu Bo's robe, and immediately took out a piece of paper from his pocket under Dugu Bo's puzzled eyes.

"Wait a minute, don't leave, I still need some materials, you can buy them for me, senior, as a titled Douluo, you should be very rich." Gong Teng let go of Dugu Bo's robe while talking hand, and took out the charcoal pencil to write.

In a short while, a piece of paper was filled with Gong Teng's writing.

I saw that all kinds of metals, jade, crystal, glass, wood, ore, animal skins, and soul guides were densely packed on this paper.

There are more than 100 kinds of materials listed, and behind each material, how many catties and tons are required are marked in detail, even the paper is full.

Originally, Dugu Bo was quite confident about his own financial resources.

After all, in addition to being a titled Douluo, he is also a guest servant of the Heaven Dou imperial family, and even a friend of Prince Xue Xing, who receives a large sum of offerings every year.

However, when Dugu Bo took the paper, he glanced at it and was stunned.

Some of these materials are cheap, but some are expensive.

Especially gold, jade, crystal and soul tools.

The point is, there are some materials that he does not know, has never heard of, and has never seen.

Dugu Bo made a rough estimate, and felt that if he gathered all the materials on this piece of paper, it would cost at least a million gold soul coins, or even more.

Immediately, the way Dugu Bo looked at Gong Teng changed.

That look was weird, as if saying:

You kid is really rude!
If you catch a big family, you'll slaughter it hard, right?
"Tell me the truth, how many of these materials are used for alchemy?"

Afterwards, Dugu Bo pointed to the words on the paper and asked a crucial question.

When Gong Teng heard this, he fell silent...

Dugu Bo: "..."

Snapped!
Seeing that, Dugu Bo threw the paper on Gong Teng's face with his backhand.

Afterwards, he turned around and flew away, leaving only a cold sentence in the air.

"Give me a good alchemy, otherwise don't even think about being the old man's apprentice!"

……

Gong Teng looked up at Dugu Bo's back disappearing on the top of the mountain, and then he sighed slightly.

"It's a pity, but I'm not in a hurry, anyway, I have plenty of time now..."

Gong Teng muttered something to himself in his heart.

Then, he turned and walked into the medicine garden.

Turning around the Binghuo Liangyi Eye, Gong Teng took out a tungsten thermometer, and inserted one end into the red soup of the Binghuo Liangyi Eye.

After a while, he took out the thermometer, glanced at it and muttered: "Why is it only over 2000 degrees, it's just a little bit stronger than magma..."

Gong Teng looked at the liquid in the red soup, and immediately an idea came to his mind.

If oxygen is used to support combustion, can the temperature of red soup be raised?

Afterwards, Gong Teng put away the thermometer and took a stroll around the huge medicine garden instead.

Even Gong Teng, after walking around, couldn't help being amazed, there are many high-level medicinal materials, many middle-level medicinal materials, and low-level medicinal materials everywhere.

Such as Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin, Star Anise Xuanbingcao, Lihuo Xingshu, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, etc. These so-called fairy medicines are naturally the high-grade medicinal materials that Gong Teng said, and they can be used to refine the fifth grade, and even Sixth grade pill.

However, becoming a high-level pharmacist does not happen overnight.

And if the medicinal materials are directly eaten raw, it would be too wasteful.

Therefore, Gong Teng picked a lot of low-grade medicinal materials from the medicine garden.

Even low-level medicinal materials are medicinal materials such as ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, and fleece-flower root.

The quality of the medicinal materials grown near the Binghuo Liangyi Eye is naturally the best among the best.

Ten-year ginseng has a hundred-year quality, and a century-old ginseng has a thousand-year quality. There are even many kings of ten thousand-year ginseng who have grown into human shapes.

Afterwards, Gong Teng came to the edge of the red soup, and plowed a ravine out of the soil with jade objects.

And at the end of the ravine, he dug a small pit.

bang!
The alchemy furnace was taken out by Gong Teng and placed on top of the pit.

Immediately, Gong Teng dug up the other end of the ravine, allowing the heat in the red soup to guide over and slowly gather at the bottom of the alchemy furnace.

For a while, the high temperature rose, and the bottom of the alchemy furnace was quickly burned red.

Fortunately, Gong Teng incorporated tungsten into the bottom material of this alchemy furnace.

Moreover, the core metal plate in the alchemy furnace is also a material with very high refractory properties.

Even the high temperature of the Ice and Fire Liangyi Eye could not melt the alchemy furnace into molten iron.

hum! !

Afterwards, Gong Teng injected his soul power into the core metal plate, arousing the magic circle capable of creating fire with wood.

With the rising of a mass of red light, Gong Teng's soul perception also spread over.

In his perception, the energy of the red soup was directly absorbed by the magic circle, and immediately merged with the energy of the wood in the fire transformed by Gong Teng's soul power, turning into a ball of red high-temperature light.

"No wonder alchemists like to guide the power of earth fire to make alchemy. This method really saves time and effort."

Gong Teng felt that the consumption of soul power was far less than one-tenth of the previous one.

In this way, it will be more convenient and durable for him to refine the elixir.

Immediately, Gong Teng put one plant after another of the medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron for refining.

It was already late at this time, but Gong Teng was so excited that he couldn't sleep, so he directly chose to stay up late to refine alchemy, and refined thousands of medicinal materials in one night.

The next day

When there was a white belly in the sky.

Dugu Bo flew over from the mountain depression.

Immediately, he saw Gong Teng sitting cross-legged near Binghuo Liangyi's red-eyed soup.

As well as Gong Teng's side, there was a pile of ashes.

Dugu Bo, who had secretly observed Gong Teng's medicine refining process, knew that this was the ashes left after refining the medicinal materials, he took the essence and discarded the dross.

However, the pile of ashes was a bit high, making Dugu Bo's heart skip a beat.

However, Dugu Bo did not criticize anything, but took out a soul guide, threw it to Gong Teng, and said: "You need too many materials, I can only get you a few rare ores temporarily , other materials, after you really detoxify the old man, and the soul guide as well."

Gong Teng caught the soul guide, and the soul power invaded it, and immediately saw several rare ores, and found an ore that was very similar to barium, which immediately shocked Gong Teng's mental head.

With the barium, the sulfuric acid he extracted, he could make a hydrogen peroxide solution.

That is hydrogen peroxide.

And this kind of thing can be used to refine plant cellulose.

If plant cellulose is mixed with nitric acid, it is the smokeless gunpowder in the bullets used in modern firearms. It is far more powerful than black powder, and the residue after deflagration is even less pitiful.

"Senior, you really gave this junior a great gift!"

Gong Teng stood up and stretched, looked at Dugu Bo with burning eyes and said.

He spent several days in Tiandou City, but failed to find Ba.

Unexpectedly, Dugu Bo got him barium in just one day.

"Really, what's the use of these broken stones?" Dugu Bo said rather incomprehensibly.

Hearing this, Gong Teng took out a revolver from his pocket, and said: "This thing is called a revolver, senior, you must have seen its power."

Dugu Bo nodded, he had naturally seen the whole process.

This weird weapon can burst out a small metal bullet, which is fast and powerful, even the soul king can't block the blow.

But it is only limited to the soul king, at least it is not enough to watch the soul emperor.

"The power of a firearm depends on the bullet, and the power of the bullet depends on the gunpowder. The gunpowder prepared by the junior is only the worst black powder, but with the barium metal that the senior helped me find..."

When Gong Teng said this, he suddenly paused, and looked up at Dugu Bo.

I saw that the other party's eyes were already full of impatience.

"Don't worry, senior, it won't delay alchemy, just treat it as a pastime after rest."

While talking, Gong Teng took out various containers and instruments, and began to extract barium.

Hearing this, Dugu Bo glanced at the ashes next to the alchemy furnace, and his eyes softened slightly.

He was actually very satisfied with Gong Teng staying up all night to refine medicinal materials.

Afterwards, Dugu Bo stood beside Gong Teng, observing Gong Teng's operations.

I saw that as the barium was extracted, Gong Teng began to heat the barium.

The heated barium produces barium peroxide.

Then Gong Teng put on a mask and poured in sulfuric acid to make a hydrogen peroxide solution.

After making this solution, Gong Teng summoned his own Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, directly tore off the rattan of the Blue Silver Grass, and used the Blue Silver Grass as the raw material to extract a large amount of cellulose.

This cellulose is slightly different in color from ordinary cellulose, showing a blue-gold color.

"What's the use of this thing? Cotton?"

Dugu Bo couldn't understand even more, he stretched out his hand to grab a ball of blue-gold cellulose, and said.

"Of course it works. This is the key to the power of a gun." Gong Teng took out the nitric acid as he spoke, and began to fuse the nitric acid with cellulose to produce nitrocellulose.

Dry the nitrocellulose and make it into granules.

Gong Teng took out a lot of shell casings and warheads, and loaded them with gunpowder.

In a short while, a batch of bullets of smokeless gunpowder was produced.

Moreover, the models of these bullets are all 12.7mm large-caliber bullets.

Click!
Gong Teng loaded the new bullet into the revolver.

Immediately, he took out an automatic rifle and a sniper rifle that he had made a long time ago from his pocket.

The 12.7mm bullet is also suitable for such a sniper rifle named Barrett.

After Gong Teng loaded the bullets into the Barrett sniper rifle.

When he looked at the automatic rifle, he frowned slightly.

Automatic rifles are suitable for bullets with relatively small calibers. They don't have enough damage to a single target. If they are used to clean up small soldiers, they are a must.

However, for the time being, Gong Teng doesn't need this kind of firearms for cleaning up soldiers, his eyes are only on high-ranking soul masters at the present time.

"The automatic rifle is not needed for now, let's change it into the most powerful sniper gun!"

In a flash, Gong Teng took out a forging hammer and some refined iron from his pocket, and began to completely remodel the automatic rifle.

Gong Teng didn't shy away from anything, and let Dugu Bo watch from the sidelines.

After a while, a sniper rifle named XM109 came out.

This sniper rifle is said to be a gun, but because the bullet caliber is the largest model of 25mm, it is a medium and long-range launcher instead.

Although the range is not as far as the regular Barrett, its power is large enough.

Therefore, this kind of firearm is also called a sniper gun.

Gong Teng made some 25mm caliber bullets and loaded them.

In the end, three types of firearms were placed in front of Gong Teng.

The largest caliber revolver, Barrett sniper rifle, and the strongest sniper gun.

"Senior Dugu, are you interested in trying the power of these firearms?" After finishing the adjustment, Gong Teng turned his head to look at Dugu Bo beside him.

Hearing this, Dugu Bo reached out and picked up the revolver.

He has personally seen how Gong Teng uses this thing.

I saw that Dugu Bo handed the revolver to Gong Teng, and said: "Come on, little guy, let me try these gadgets you made!"

hum! !

In the next second, circles of spirit rings appeared under Dugu Bo's feet.

And, the pitch-black fifth soul ring suddenly lit up.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Snake Python Sky Shield!"

hum! !

In an instant, a rich green light erupted from Dugu Bo's body, and quickly condensed around his body, turning into a huge protective shield.

But then, under Dugu Bo's control, the protective shield condensed again, turning into a shield with green glow floating in front of him.

At this moment, Dugu Bo has full confidence in his own strength.

Although he was using the fifth soul skill, with his Title Douluo's cultivation, the power gathered by this fifth soul skill was far inferior to the fifth soul skills used by soul kings and soul emperors.

boom! !

In the next second, Gong Teng decisively pulled the trigger.

I saw, accompanied by golden flames bursting from the muzzle of the gun, and a loud noise burst out.

The powerful counter-shock force that the left wheel endured even made Gong Teng's wrist jerk violently.

And a bullet turned into a streamer that was almost invisible to the naked eye, quickly tore through the air, and slammed into the green shield with high-speed rotation, directly hitting a small sunken crater.

This small hole is not big, only half an inch deep.

But this is the title Douluo's defense, and it is also the defense displayed by the defense system soul skills.

But at this moment, Dugu Bo stared at the revolver in Gong Teng's hand, and said: "The power has been increased several times, at least it can kill the Soul Emperor!"

"Besides, the old man is talking about the soul emperor under full defense. The power of your weapon, in terms of penetrating power, is not weaker than the full blow of the soul saint. Maybe even the soul that has not activated the soul avatar Holy, it is possible to die at gunpoint."

Hearing this, Gong Teng was overjoyed, and immediately set up the sniper gun, and said, "Senior Dugu, let's try this weapon again!"

Barrett's bullets have the same caliber as revolver bullets, so the power is naturally similar, but sniper rifles are better at long-range attacks.

As for the real frontal power, it depends on the sniper cannon.

Bang Bang! !

As Gong Teng pulled the trigger, the powerful counter-shock force made his body tremble violently.

This shows the power of this bullet!

And in the next instant, the high-speed rotating large-caliber warhead directly advanced in the golden flames, like a galloping lightning, fiercely tearing the air, and directly smashed into the green shield with the most violent momentum. the depths.

In the end, the warhead shattered in the depths of the green shield, but hit a depth of several inches...
