This brave man is a scumbag

Chapter 446 Jigsaw Puzzle
In fact, many times, recognizing distant relatives is a very embarrassing thing.

The blood of close relatives is thicker than water, so the process of his recognition of relatives will be drawn in by the deep blood relationship between each other, so that he does not have to face the embarrassment left by not seeing each other for a long time.But distant relatives are not the same. The blood relationship of distant relatives is relatively weak, and embarrassment is inevitable.

Alyosha and Arthur belong to the latter.Their blood relationship is far away. Apart from the same surname "Morgan" and those eyes containing magical power, the gap between the two is ridiculously large.An orphaned cowboy with a gray business in the wild west, and a country girl with both parents winning a lot of money, the difference is like the Joker and Batman.You say they're essentially the same in a sense, but the Joker isn't an orphan.

So, this meeting was very embarrassing.But fortunately, Zhou Li saw this kind of embarrassment, and the bad thing was that Zhou Li liked to see other people's embarrassment.

After the silence, Arthur looked at Zhou Li for help, and said, "You have come from a long way, and I will do my best to treat guests..."

Seeing the roaring legion behind Zhou Li, Arthur fell silent again in embarrassment.It is said to be the number one gang in the West, but the Van der Lin Gang is actually just a small settlement with less than 100 members.In their gathering point, except for themselves, the top fighting force, everyone else lived in tents.Of course, few people complained about this. Without Arthur, the Van der Lin gang would have died in the siege in a previous Blackwater River event.Therefore, in their settlement, there is no so-called guest room at all.

If anything, the only guest room was Arthur's cabin.But half of his cabin has actually collapsed, and you can't say that his house has four walls, because he only has two walls left.So, when it came to hospitality, Arthur was embarrassed.

Then there is a way, this is not the old BJ.

"It's okay, I understand."

Zhou Li saw his embarrassment, patted him on the shoulder, and waved his hand. Under the watchful eyes of those Van der Lin gang members who were secretly watching the crowd, these legions immediately dispersed, and the silent tacit understanding allowed them to move in precisely. A rune stone was placed at the pass of each level. After the rune stone was activated, the tents inflated.

This.
Looking at such a convenient and easy-to-use tent, Dach was a little greedy for a while.He looked at Zhou Li, and when he was about to say something, Arthur secretly gave him an elbow.

Put away your ideas!

"I just want to buy a few."

Dach rubbed his chest after receiving an elbow, and muttered twice with aggrieved expression.Arthur, on the other hand, looked helpless, patted him on the shoulder and said, "We can't get ten gold coins together as a whole gang. This thing looks ridiculously expensive. You really can't sell me."

Dach sighed, knowing that his idea might not come true.Then he began to think about the idea of ​​selling Arthur and then snatching it back. Fortunately, John found out early.

"bring it on."

Finding an open space, Zhou Li stretched out his hand, and a stone that was obviously bigger than the other rune stones appeared in his hand.Zhou Li threw the stone casually, and the stone fell to the ground. Accompanied by the sound of squirming, a house that was not luxurious but comfortable enough appeared in front of everyone.

"Let's have a chat."

Zhou Li didn't look at the astonished expressions of Da Qi and the others behind him, he pushed open the door and walked in.And the three country cowboys glanced at each other, scratched their heads, and followed behind Zhou Li.

The wooden house is a two-story structure, and Zhou Li set the living room on the first floor.After taking out ten chairs, a table, two sets of tea sets and a set of coffee equipment from the Void Rune made by Kaya, Zhou Li and Erma directly arranged the living room under the numb gaze of the three of them.

You two might as well move Mosk here.

He secretly complained in his heart, but Dach still had to maintain his awareness as a gang leader, and praised with a smile: "Your Excellency Brave, you have a great trick, this treasure is really exquisite."

"Want one?"

Zhou Li raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.Dach shook his head and said seriously: "This is your thing, I'll forget it."

Dach also knows the saying that every man is innocent and he is guilty. In the west, you can have guns, bullets, and money, but you just don't have anything to do with magic.Everyone knows that Jing Gui's favorite is mana.

After taking their seats, Zhou Li put a large pot of coffee in the middle and asked everyone to get it.After each poured a cup, Zhou Li put the coffee cup in front of him, and then said, "Arthur, do you know why I'm here this time?"

After hearing Zhou Li's question, Arthur looked at John, then Dutch, then he shook his head and said honestly, "I don't know."

"Silver Lord is dead."

Four words, directly shocked Arthur and others.In the west, you may not know who Emperor Tariq is, but you must know the name of the Silver Lord, the behind-the-scenes leader of the Pinkerton detective who supplied 80.00% of the weapons, bullets, and food in the west, and who is also the cowboy.

But now, Zhou Li first found Arthur.When the two had only met each other once, it was said that Yin Jue was dead.

Arthur's first reaction was that Zhou Li wanted to catch a scapegoat, and he was the lucky one.But after he calmed down, he realized that Zhou Li didn't need to take the place of the dead ghost at all, or in other words, he didn't have the potential to take the place of the dead ghost.

A wildling from the west is not eligible to enter the sunshine of Taric.

"This time, I want to ask you a question."

Zhou Li opened the holster on his waist, pulled out his little helper, and placed it in front of Arthur.He looked at Arthur with no expression on his face, "Remember this?"

A little confusion appeared in Arthur's eyes when he saw the legendary exquisite artwork.He slowly stretched out his hand, touched the handle of the pistol lightly, and suddenly withdrew his hand as if he had been scalded.

"If I'm not mistaken, you helped her, didn't you?"

Zhou Li looked at Alyosha at the side, then at Arthur, and said, "You have used this little helper before, right?"

"little helper"

Unconsciously repeating these three words, Arthur covered his forehead, and black halos kept flickering in his eyes.After a while, Arthur raised his head with a heavy voice.

"I've used this pistol before, but it's not the first time."

Arthur's words not only surprised Alyosha and the others, even Zhou Li frowned rarely, with a puzzled look on his face.

"This pistol... actually doesn't belong to this world."

After a long time, Arthur picked up the little helper in front of him. He knew that this pistol had been completely blocked by Zhou Li. If he pulled the trigger, he would be the first to suffer.He held up his little helper, and in the light, the pistol, worthy of a work of art, exuded an alluring yet dangerous beauty.

"gunpowder."

After a long time, Arthur spoke, seemingly speaking to the little helper, but also to Zhou Li: "This gun should be powered by gunpowder."

gunpowder!

Not black powder!
When he heard these two words, Zhou Li's spirits lifted immediately.This made him feel a throbbing in his heart, he resisted the desire to ask, took out another pistol, and put it on the table.

"What about this one?"

Looking at this revolver is so different from any other pistol type in the world, from the trigger to the hammer, it reveals a simple and rustic feel to the revolver.Arthur felt a trance.

It's not a product of this world.

It cannot be activated by magic, it cannot be activated by professional energy, and there is no trace of any magic energy.

He is like a bow and arrow, a simple bow and arrow.But it was such primitive bows and arrows that gave Arthur a chill in his heart.

It was as if something was staring at him in the sky.

"Redemption."

Confused and fearful, Arthur said the name of the gun.Like the instinct engraved in his blood, Arthur took the pistol, pressed the catch, and flicked it to the left, and the empty revolver magazine appeared in front of his eyes.

A revolver magazine that cannot be activated by mana or professional energy.It seems that there should be bullets in this magazine.

Soon, Arthur was amused by his ridiculous thought.how is this possible?If there are bullets in the magazine of the pistol and revolver, where is the professional energy?Where is the magic mechanism installed?
Can.
Holding the pistol tightly, Arthur seemed to feel an ancient call from his blood.He accidentally raised the pistol, aimed it at the window beside him, flicked the pistol, and there was a crisp click sound from the magazine and the gun body.

boom!
Pull the trigger and the hammer fires.

But no bullets came out.

Arthur clearly felt that this pistol couldn't hold energy at all.But when he gripped the pistol tightly, Arthur suddenly felt his heartbeat.

Crazy, cheering, jumping hearts.

As if he should hold this pistol.

"gunpowder."

After a long time, Arthur spoke and repeated the two words again, "This gun needs gunpowder."

Yes, gunpowder.Something that doesn't exist in this world.

Everyone says that the traveler has three treasures, gunpowder, glass and papermaking.But in this world, the glass and paper industry has surpassed the earth. After all, the earth does not have platinum workers who rub glass by hand and magic factories that can manipulate runes.However, there is only gunpowder in this world.

The only one that has anything to do with gunpowder is called black powder.But this kind of black powder is completely extreme, extremely unstable, and extremely explosive.This kind of thing that can't be finely used at all is completely different from the gunpowder in Zhou Li's impression.

Only after his investigation did Zhou Li clarify his point of view.In this world, there is no such thing as gunpowder.Gunpowder would be impossible without sulfur and saltpeter.

Therefore, when the pistol named Salvation appeared in front of him, the first reaction in Zhou Li's mind was that there were other traversers besides himself.

Of course, he knew that there were many traversers in the previous brave men.Chonghuang himself is one of them, and he is also a fellow of his own.

But the problem is that Chonghuang is unique, just like himself.In an era, there can only be one.But if a pistol called Salvation contains substances that do not exist in this world, and it was held by Alyosha's great-grandfather at the same time, it means that at a certain time, at a certain place, the traveler on the earth There will be many.

The only thing Zhou Li wanted to know was where this group of people went.

This is not just pure homesickness, nor is it for encountering old acquaintances in other places.What Zhou Li wants to know is why the brave men of this world must be earthlings.

What does the earth have that the world needs?Earthlings, what's special?
Zhou Li really wanted to find out about this matter. He believed that this matter was a typical example of knowing things through subtlety.What lies behind this is why the gods wanted to kill Elma and themselves in the last life.

"How do you know about gunpowder?"

Zhou Li stared at Arthur, and asked in a deep voice, "Why, you know this pistol needs gunpowder?"

"Blood."

Arthur gave the answer, an expected answer, "Guns are something engraved in the blood of the Morgan family. Since I was nine years old, I can smash glass bottles 50 meters away with a rough revolver, At the age of 25, I could break marbles 500 meters away with a pistol. This is not the result of my hard work, it is simply my talent."

"Me too."

Alyosha on the side raised his hand, and then added: "But I may be different from Arthur. I have a high talent for modifying and making firearms. Just like a little helper, if the gun is handed over to Others, they will never be able to detect the restrictions my grandfather left on it for the rest of their lives."

枪吗
"Arthur, what else do you know?"

Zhou Li picked up the redemption, he looked at Arthur, and said solemnly: "I can tell you that the word gunpowder is extremely important to me and to the twelve quarters. More importantly, he is very likely to have a relationship with Jingyu. There are relationships."

Jinggui is likely to be a monster born from the combination of brilliant crystals and humans.The Shining Crystal was something Taric developed back then.After Tarik researched the shining crystal, Tarik seemed to have a conflict with the first Death Eye because of a research, and the Death Eye left Tarik.

So what exactly were they studying?What exactly did they study, so that Tarik parted ways with the first Dead Eye, a comrade in arms who was closer than relatives, and made the Morgan family make a declaration that they would never return to Tarik?
Now it seems that the answer is obvious.

Sensing the prying eyes of the gods, Zhou Li, who had maintained a barrier to prevent the prying eyes of the gods from the moment he entered the door, squinted his eyes and kept thinking.

The forgotten places of the west of Taric.

Gunpowder, gunpowder belonging to earthlings.

Shining crystal, shining crystal that belongs to this world
Jing Gui, a group of Jing Gui who seemed to be watching over something.

Countless clues gathered together, and in a blank space, the clues waited quietly.They're waiting, waiting for the last piece of the puzzle to appear.

grave.

When these two words appeared in Zhou Li's mind, all the clouds and mist dissipated.When he looked at this land abandoned by civilization again, these two words came to his mind.

A guarded grave.
