Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire

"What does mortal magic mean?" Grace

was a little surprised, magic that mortals can use, and at the same time, she also had some logical doubts, mortals can use magic.... Isn't that a magician?Cole

pulled out a pistol, loaded

it with ammunition, and then handed it to Grace, pointed to the trigger and said, "Don't use magic, just pull here!"

Grace looked at the pistol carefully, and then pulled the trigger as Cole prompted.

The flint and steel fell quickly, and the resulting sparks ignited the gunpowder, and with a loud bang, a buckshot flew out at a rapid speed.

Grace wrapped the pistol in magic energy in surprise, the residual heat on the barrel did not have a trace of magic fluctuations, she looked at Cole in amazement and said

, "Holy Lord Goddess

, there is no magic explosion? What is that?" Grace looked at the small bottle that Cole had just taken out, and she had just seen that it was the explosion caused by the thing Cole had filled in.

Cole poured the gunpowder from the bottle on the ground, and Grace immediately picked up a little with her fingers curiously, and then slowly injected magic into the gunpowder.

But she didn't get the feedback of magic, it was an ordinary substance, which did not contain any magical energy, and then she released high-temperature energy, and the gunpowder ignited instantly, but the violent reaction did not have any magic fluctuations.

"Hey, there's such a thing! it's amazing!" Grace

was very curious about the thing, and started playing with it a little more. Cole explained to her, "

It's called gunpowder! It's a mixture of several natural substances that explode when it comes to fire!" "You don't need any magic to mine it, make it, and use it!"

How did you find out?

" Grace asked curiously, Cole took a deep breath, touched his beard and said,

"It's a long story......

Cole began to tell Grace about the rise of Su Zheng and the story of Su Zheng's independent state.

Su Zheng captured a kingdom in just one month with only 10,000 people, which surprised Grace a little, and it seems that gunpowder is a war that completely changes mortals.

Grace also realized that this thing would make the fight between mortals even bloodier, even as bloody as the war between the two small kingdoms of Middle-earth.

"By the way, what does Sovietism mean? Freedom... What does this mean?"

asked Grace, confused, and Cole laughed

, "Haha, that's kind of funny..."

In the evening, in a room in the palace, the high-level officials of the Xinqiong Empire and the Xingnuo Empire sat around the table and talked, but not only was there no tense atmosphere, on the contrary, several people were talking and laughing.

Several maids at the door were shocked by the scene in front of them.

Their empress, Grace, changed her usual cold posture and talked happily with several other people, laughing from time to time.

Losing the entire empire, the empress and the enemy who occupied the empire pushed the glass and exchanged glasses, and drank and talked, which really made people's jaws drop.

This group of people is like a class reunion, without any relationship between superiors and subordinates, which is actually the case.

They even drank beer brought by caravans from the Free Federation, with pizza and sausages on the table, and talked about the various situations they encountered in governing the country.

Their tone and posture were as if they were talking about some trivial family matters, but they were talking about national affairs in a down-to-earth manner!"

"Seeing that the momentum was not right, this Margaret Empire retreated fifty miles back from the troops stationed on the border, and then sent envoys to want peace talks.

Taylor took a sip of beer and said, Cole sneered when he heard this,

"Hmph, what did they do earlier? They came to intervene while labor and management couldn't take care of them, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they wanted to pat their butts and leave? Hmph, impossible!"

he took a sip of beer, then picked up a piece of pizza and ate it.

Grace's best friend took a bite and asked suspiciously

, "Hey, why doesn't he expand this Su Zheng?"

I don't know, it stands to reason that he can use the weapons in his hands to expand quickly, subdue one empire after another, and finally build a huge empire!"

Taylor shook his head and said, Cole also showed a puzzled expression, scratched his head and said

, "It's really strange, everything Su Zheng does is strange........ It is rumored that a magician who uses a large number of spells suddenly appeared in the royal guard of the Purple Cloud Empire, and according to the description, it can be judged that it should be a musket.

"Ah, what kind of operation is this? If Su Zheng wants to expand, the Xinqiong Empire and the Purple Cloud Empire are his first choice for attacking, but he just gave you and the Purple Cloud Empire muskets....."

Grace's best friend said puzzled, Taylor seemed to think of something, and said to Cole with a slight frown:

" By the way, Cole, speaking of Su Zheng, there is something very strange, Margaret's envoy suddenly withdrew not long ago, I sent spies to investigate, it is said that Su Zheng asked them to cooperate, and signed a "Suma Non-Aggression Pact"!

" Taylor's words made Cole stunned for a moment, he frowned and put down the food in his hand, and began to think:

"Ah, Su Zheng and Margaret have no border, and they are so far apart, why do you sign this agreement?"

yes, one to the north and one to the south..."

"Hey, wait!" Cole

stood up suddenly, his face a little solemn.

"Something is wrong... Something is wrong, something is wrong..."

Taylor also realized the seriousness of the problem:

"Hey, this... Could it be... Su Zheng plans to join forces

with the Margaret Empire to attack us?" "But the question is, how dare the Margaret Empire cooperate with Su Zheng? Could it be that Su Zheng also gave the musket to the Margaret Empire?" "

It's possible! Don't they also give it to the Purple Cloud Empire?"

"Hiss... What the hell does Su Zheng want to do?"

everyone was puzzled, and Su Zheng's operation was really so true that they couldn't understand it.

"Did you want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight? He didn't give us the way to make gunpowder, he only allowed us to buy the finished product.

Taylor said to everyone, Taylor said to everyone Cole nodded slightly and said,

"Oh.... It's also possible to say that..... Not only can we fight each other, but he can also profit from it!It's just that he didn't expect us to be able to reverse the way gunpowder is made!

""It's just that I still don't understand, why doesn't he just expand? He can expand quickly with a musket?"

Grace's best friend still asked puzzled, Cole waved his hand and said

, "Forget it, I don't want to think so much, let's take a step at a time!" In short, as long as I make gunpowder, I will no longer be held back by him!".
