The strongest lord system

Chapter 52 Gunpowder Test
Allen walked near the soldier training ground unknowingly. From a distance, he saw that Karl was directing the soldiers to conduct drills, holding a sword or gun in his hand, and kept performing several seemingly simple but very important actions.

Karl saw Alan coming from a distance, and he shouted at the team: "Everyone is there, stand at attention."

despair.

The soldiers quickly held the weapons in their right hands and put them down on the hem of their trousers. Their steps were very neat, and all of them stood straight with their heads held high.

"Take a break."

despair.

The movement of the feet is also very neat, there are no other redundant movements.

"Now rest where you are."

"Yes." The soldiers shouted, then sat on the ground, wiped the sweat off their bodies, and took a rest.

Carl jogged to Alan's side, and said respectfully, "Master City Lord, do you have any orders here?"

Allen shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just came out and wandered around. By the way, I remember that I arranged for you and my soldiers to go out for a day's vacation. Why didn't you go to rest?"

Karl rubbed his head and smiled, "Because I haven't trained for several days. As the captain, I don't want to get too far away from the soldiers, so I came to train by myself."

Allen nodded, patted Carl on the shoulder, and praised: "Not bad, but you must also pay attention to your body. Well, I just need someone to help me with some things later. You go and explain it, and come with me later."

Carl hesitated for a moment, but still raised his right hand to salute Allen: "Yes, my lord, please wait a moment, I will make arrangements." Then he ran back to the team.

Allen looked at Carl's military salute to him, which he specifically instructed Carl to continue, so that all soldiers should be able to use this military salute, which is a kind of soldier etiquette.

Soon, Karl finished explaining, a person who seemed to be the deputy captain walked out of the team, gave Karl a military salute, and began to train soldiers instead of Karl.

Carl ran back, gave a military salute to Allen, and said, "My lord, I have finished explaining everything. Please tell me if you need anything."

Allen said, "Just follow me."

With that said, Allen was about to go back to the City Lord's Mansion, and now he was going to start the most important thing of the day.

"Yes." Carl was a little curious, but he still followed Allen.

"What the hell is going on, is there something wrong?"

"Hoohoo, that city lord, what exactly is this going to do?"

Two people in a state of distress ran out of a small room. There was a pungent and pungent smell everywhere in the room, and there was also a strange smell of burning.

These two are Alan and Carl, but now they look so embarrassed, they look like two black people.

Allen sat dejectedly on the stone bench in front of the house. Regardless of the blackness of his hands, he scratched his hair vigorously: "Where did I go wrong? Is it because my steps are wrong, or the proportion is wrong."

Karl exhaled black air from his mouth, and he said to Allen: "My lord, you... what are you going to do?"

"I can't explain it clearly to you. You quickly dissipated the black air and smell in the room. Let's try again later." Allen took out a charcoal pencil and started drawing directly on the ground.

Karl glanced at one of the strange figures he didn't recognize, and he said, "Master, should we do it again? We have done this several times." Karl only saw the city owner doing those few things these few times. materials, but the city lord always put them in front of him after preparing them for some strange experiments, which made them look like this.

"Don't talk nonsense, just do it quickly." Allen said without raising his head.

Carl picked up a careful blower-like thing, walked into the hut that was still emitting black smoke, and began to clean up the "mess" inside.

Allen looked at the data on the ground: "What didn't work well, what's wrong."

Allen felt that his brain was going to explode now, and he only hated that he didn't listen well when he was in school.

He grabbed a few more from the bags of raw materials piled up in the yard, and kept looking at them in front of his eyes. "The materials should be fine, although they are not exactly the same as those on Earth, but the reason is similar."

Allen's eyes were on the last snowstone: "Is this snowstone really not the saltpeter on the earth? Is it because I made a mistake?"

"My lord, the house has been cleaned up." Carl walked out of the room with a disheveled face. He is very proficient in doing this now. He failed to clean up the "battlefield" a few times before. Up to now, he still can't figure out what the city lord wants to do with that pile of black things.

"Okay! I'll experiment again." Alan picked up the materials he needed and walked into the room to continue his experiment.

Carl sighed, put down the blower in his hand, and walked into the cabin.

call!
"Failed again, come again."

"Yes!"

In this hut, black smoke kept coming out.

I don't know how long it has passed, but the sun has started to slowly set from the high overhead.

At this moment, cheers broke out in the small room.

In a wasteland in the City Lord's Mansion, Allen and Karl in armor were preparing something here.

"Master, what's the use of you being so excited to make this thing? And why do you want me to wear such a thick armor?" Karl looked at Alan's current appearance, if it weren't for the city lord, he could still speak normally. He thought the city lord was crazy!
"Wait a minute and you'll find out."

He already understood the reason for the failure before, because although this snow stone is similar to the saltpeter on the earth, they are still a little different, so there have been some changes in this ratio, but after Alan tried repeatedly, he finally mastered it. The correct proportions for crafting gunpowder.

Allen prepared the gunpowder according to the calculation and formula before, that is, a pile of black granular powder wrapped in a sealed animal skin, tied up with a rope, and then he took a gunpowder that was used as a lead wire. Rope, plug it in.

"Carl, come with me." Allen yelled, he ran to the center of the open space, and put this simple version of the explosive kit on the ground.

"Go get a few wooden targets and put them around here, each with a different distance." Allen shouted to Carl.

"Yes!" Carl quickly moved several wooden targets and placed them around the cloth bag, each with a different distance from the cloth bag.

Allen took out a fire folder, and said to Carl behind him, "Come here."

"My lord, what are your orders?"

Allen handed the sparkling fire folder to Carl, and he said to Carl cautiously: "Listen to my order later, and you can ignite the fuse on this cloth bag. I calculated the burning time of this fuse, and it takes about five Seconds. You light this fuse and run away to find a place to hide, or lie on the ground, you know?"

Karl nodded, but he was still a little strange, why the Lord City Lord asked him to light a fire so carefully, and it would be fine.

Allen had run far away at this time, hiding behind a bunker, and he shouted to Carl: "Remember what I said, hide immediately after lighting it. Now you can light the fire."

Karl shook his head helplessly. He looked at the armor on his body. The city lord was too cautious. He lit the fuse with a torch. Although he felt that the city lord was too cautious, he still walked away, but He didn't go as far as Alan, he just stood in the distance casually.

Boom
Carl instantly regretted his arrogant behavior. He felt a heat wave blowing against his face, and the huge explosion made his ears buzz.

The smoke and dust from the explosion had dissipated, and Karl was still sitting on the ground in a state of confusion. Because of the protection of the armor, although he didn't dodge, he still didn't suffer much injuries.

"Are you okay, didn't I tell you to hide?" At this moment, Allen came over, patted Carl on the shoulder, and said.

"City...City Lord...My lord, the one just now was..." Karl still looked at the big hole in front of him in a daze.

Allen was also a little shocked. He didn't expect that the crude gunpowder made of materials in this world would be so powerful.

A big hole had been blown out where the explosives had been placed, and the surrounding wooden targets had disappeared.

Carl couldn't believe this kind of thing in his mind, such a small cloth bag could explode such a movement like the wrath of Thor.

"This..." Carl looked at Alan who was full of surprise. At this moment, in his eyes, the city lord was like a god, because he could use the "power of the gods".

Allen walked to the center of the explosion, and the big pit still smelled of gunpowder smoke from burning gunpowder.

It seems that my own "gunpowder" has been successfully developed!
