People in Mondstadt, starting to develop black technology

Then he stuffed a standard bolt bullet into the magazine, loaded the magazine back into the bolt rifle - Reaper, pulled the safety, pulled the bolt to load the chamber, aimed at the steel plate fifty meters away, and pulled the trigger.

Along with a dull firing sound, a violent explosion occurred on the steel plate twenty meters away, and the fireball formed by the explosion reached a diameter of three meters!

When the smoke cleared, everyone was shocked to find that the bullet had penetrated the first two layers of steel plates and exploded between the second and third layers. Within half a meter of the explosion center, the two steel plates had melted half their thickness due to the high temperature. The strong shock wave also caused them to bend outward, and a half-meter-long crack was torn on the second layer of steel plate that was penetrated by the bullet from the bullet hole!

"This is the power of a standard bolt round. The effective range of the 'Reaper' is two thousand meters. If it is accurate, it can cause this level of damage within 1,500 meters. Beyond 1,500 meters, the bullet's penetration will gradually weaken, but the power of the explosion will not be affected."

Amber exclaimed, "This... this is the only damage I can cause with a single arrow of my full strength!"

Although the explosion power is not as high as that of Count Bunny, and the overall damage is not as good as her elemental burst, you have to know that it is a weapon that ordinary people can use! It is amazing to reach this level!

Then Shen Qin showed them the sea monster armor-piercing bullet that could penetrate four layers of steel plates. Its powerful penetrating power shocked everyone again. Its power completely exceeded the ordinary attacks they launched with all their strength!

"Diluk, please cover the surface of the steel plate with a layer of fire elemental shield and do your best to protect it."

After Diluk was ready far away, Shen Qin loaded the Ten Direction Thunder Bombs into the Death God, aimed, and shot in one go. A high-voltage minefield with a diameter of three meters instantly appeared on the surface of the fire element shield, and the thunder and fire elements instantly overloaded.

Diluk groaned, and the fire elemental shield was destroyed, and the remaining lightning directly hit the steel plate.

"The lightning energy that bursts out instantly from the bullet is too great. It reacts directly with the fire element on the shield. The consumption rate of the fire element exceeds my transmission rate, so it is able to break the shield easily." Diluk concluded.

Next, Shen Qin asked Kaeya, Lisa, Jean, and Albedo to help, and demonstrated the shield-breaking effects of the Ten Direction Thunder Bomb, the Purgatory Explosive Bomb, and the Zero Degree Ice Bomb on different elemental shields. During this time, he also asked someone to call Barbara in the church to hold up a water shield.

Even the rock shield and wind shield that cannot react directly to other elements can be broken by attacking with three elemental bullets.

The weapons display is over, and now it's time for Qin and the others to make a decision.

Chapter 92: This thing is much more useful than a one-handed sword

Shen Qin did not participate in their discussion. His development of the grenade launcher represented his attitude. Now the choice is in the hands of these powerful people.

About half an hour later, they finally made a decision.

"We have decided to put the bolters into battle immediately, but we still need your permission to allow the Thousand Rocks Army in Liyue to be equipped with the same weapon."

Qin and Keqing came to Shen Qin together.

Shen Qin smiled and said, "Of course no problem."

This is a very smart approach. If Mondstadt is the only country with the bolter, then the pressure from other forces will be concentrated on Mondstadt. However, if Liyue is brought in as an ally, it will not only share the pressure on Mondstadt, but also make other forces less likely to act rashly.

They have to consider whether they dare to become an enemy of the powerful Liyue.

"Also, we hope you can add a binding function to the bolt gun. After binding, only the bound person can use it."

Shen Qin: "I have thought about this issue. The binding function has been implemented inside the grenade gun, and each gun has a unique number. It and the identity of the binder will be recorded in the Sentinel system."

Qin suddenly realized that every time a new alchemical product came out, it seemed that he had taken all factors into consideration. From this respect, he was less like a pure alchemist and more like a politician.

But this is just Shen Qin's advanced thinking influenced by the Internet and advanced society.

She continued, "At present, we plan to temporarily delay the offensive and let half of the knights return to the city for shooting training, while waiting for Diluk to set up a production line to produce enough bolters. When the knights equipped with bolters return to the battlefield, we will withdraw the other half of the knights for training. After the war is over, we will issue strict gun management rules and open up the right to purchase guns to some trustworthy adventurers."

Keqing added, "There's no rush for our Liyue bolters. We can still make arrangements after the Mondstadt operation is over. We will also enact corresponding laws by then."

"By the way, there is one thing I can assure you." Qin said to Shen Qin sincerely, "After being equipped with the bolt gun, Mond will never take the initiative to wage war against other legitimate countries or forces. The bolt gun is only used to defend our country and people."

Keqing nodded: "The same is true for Liyue."

Since everyone agrees, let's get started! However, before the Knights actually put the bolter troops into the battlefield, everyone was strictly required to keep it secret.

Shen Qin assisted Diluk in setting up the production line. In order to ensure the yield rate of parts processing, he also designed a micro terminal at each workstation. The terminal would scan the parts in the alchemist's hands in real time and display on the virtual screen what adjustments needed to be made to the parts until the parts were adjusted to an acceptable level.

The first batch of bolt guns and bolt bullets that the factory worked overtime to produce have been sent to the Knights to train the knights' shooting skills. Unfortunately, Shen Qin is also a layman in shooting and combat, so he can only let Haro intelligently analyze the training methods of shooting skills, and then slowly adjust and improve them in actual training.

Five days later, the knights who had mastered basic shooting skills were thrown into the battlefield. Actual combat is the best way to improve shooting skills!

"Brother, what are these things on you? How come you went to the city and returned to the battlefield without even bringing your weapons?" An adventurer greeted a knight he knew.

The armor on the knight's body was much smaller, and his movements were much more flexible than the old-style armor. In addition, there were many bulging bags on their chests, waists, and thighs, which were filled with magazines of various explosive bullets.

The knight held the Grim Reaper on his back with one hand and protected the Hellhound at his waist with the other to prevent the adventurer from pulling it out.

One of the gun rules is never let anyone take your weapon.

Although they are bound to the holders and others cannot use them even if they get them, if an emergency occurs and you are unable to take out your weapon in the first time, you may be in danger.

The adventurer ignored his actions and said, "Captain Kaeya's order today is so strange. He doesn't want us adventurers to participate in the battle. Do we have to rely on you knights for the whole process? You know, today's target is the largest group of monsters we have encountered so far!"

"All knights, gather here!" Kaia flew to a high place on a flying skateboard. He was wearing a magazine vest and belt today, but unlike ordinary knights, he still carried a one-handed sword. After all, elemental power is sometimes very useful.

"Brother, times have changed." The knight stepped on the flying skateboard and said this to his adventurer friend, then flew into the air to form a team.

Kaiya counted the number of people and said loudly, "Today is the first appearance of the grenade launcher, and everyone has some understanding of its power. In the next battle, I have two requirements - do not let any monsters escape, and do not accidentally hurt any companions. Now it's time to test the results of these days' training. Let's go!"

The knight team flew directly to the monster camp without any disguise.

An adventurer exclaimed: "Are they crazy? They are so blatant, are they going to fight the monsters head-on?"

An older adventurer thought absentmindedly about the weapons on the knights and muttered to himself, "Could those be... How is it possible..."

The adventurers also got on their skateboards and chased after the knights, wanting to know what the knights relied on to fight alone.

The monster camp soon appeared in everyone's eyes. It was a super large Hilichurl camp with an area of ​​more than 500 acres. There were nearly a thousand Hilichurls living in it, as well as dozens of Hilichurl thugs. Most importantly, there was a king of the Hilichurls in the camp - Hilichurl King Leidou!

It is one of the top elite monsters, and has already stepped half a foot into the level of a leader monster. It takes at least three holders of the Eye of God to work together to deal with it. In addition, there are other hillbillies in the camp, so the Knights are not sure and have not taken action here.

"Yika! Yika! (Enemy attack! Enemy attack!)" The archer Hillilman standing guard on the watchtower saw the humans in the air and immediately sounded the alarm. At the same time, he shot the crossbow in his hand into the sky, but the arrow flew more than 20 meters high and was pulled down by gravity.

"Yika! Yika!"

"Yika! Yika!"

The sounds spread throughout the entire camp, and all the hillbillies gathered in the direction where the humans were attacking.

"Carry out the plan and lead them to Hukou!" Kaia gave the order.

"Yes!"

The knights spread out, at intervals of ten meters, and surrounded the Hill Culvert camp in a semicircle in the air.

Kaia pulled the safety, pulled the bolt to load the gun, and aimed the muzzle downward at the outermost Hilichurls.

"This thing is much more useful than a one-handed sword."

Chapter 93: Gun? Isn't a gun a long-handled weapon?

"Bang!" The standard explosive bullet exploded after hitting the Hillilchurl, blowing its body into pieces.

As Kaeya fired the first shot, all the knights pulled the trigger in their hands. Suddenly, continuous explosions advanced from the periphery of the camp to the center.

They all used Reaper rifles and fired from a high position. Each shot could take out a Hillilkhorn. Even if the bullets missed their targets, the shock wave from the explosion would still dazzle them.

Of course, the Hilliard Thug holding a shield can easily block standard bolt bullets. Even if the bullets hit the ground next to it and explode it, it can only be pushed back. After it extinguishes the flames on its hair, it can continue to hold the shield in front of it.

At this time, the knight will switch to the Sea Monster armor-piercing bullets. The bullets will penetrate the shield and embed into the body of the Hilliard Thugs at the same time, and then blow their bodies apart from inside!

When the adventurers, whose flying speed was slower than that of the knights, arrived at the battlefield, they saw the knights, who were like gods, floating in the air fifty meters high, raining down balls of sky fire with the weapons of judgment in their hands. The lives of the hillbillies were mercilessly devoured by the exploding flames.

At a height of fifty meters, they had no way of fighting back and could only helplessly wait for death to fall upon them.

The axe-wielding Hillilman roared and threw a giant axe taller than a man into the sky, but the knight dodged it nimbly. The next second, the explosive bullet exploded in its body.

"This, this is a gun!" An experienced old adventurer finally determined what those strange long weapons were.

"Gun? Isn't a gun a long-handled weapon? Do you think I'm blind?" The young adventurer thought he was making it up.

"This gun is different from that gun. This gun is a long-range weapon that is more terrifying than a crossbow or a bow..."

Seeing that they were only going to be beaten, the remaining Hilichurls fled in all directions, running away in the opposite direction of the knights, but the Hilichurl King Raidou, who was twice as tall as the Hilichurl thugs, went in the opposite direction of the Hilichurls and walked towards the knights step by step.

Its body is covered with a thick lightning element shield. Explosive arrows and sea monster armor-piercing bullets cannot penetrate that shield, and even its fur cannot be damaged.

"Load the Inferno Bombs and Zero Ice Bombs!" Kaeya roared, unloading the magazine loaded with standard bolt bullets, pushing the Inferno Bomb magazine in, and then pulling the trigger at the Hilichook Raido King.

Red flames and white ice mist exploded on the shield of King Lei Dou of Hill Climb. The ice mist was evaporated by the flames, and the entire area below was filled with white water vapor.

"Roar!!!" A roar came from the fog, and a tall black shadow suddenly rushed out of the thick fog, jumped more than fifty meters high, and punched a knight.

The knight looked at the Hillock Thunder King in horror. The thunder shield on its body was gone, its fur was burnt, and some of its hair was still stained with ice crystals. However, with its tall body and hideous mask, the horrible sense of oppression rushed straight to the knight's face. In panic, his body froze, not knowing how to react.

"Bang!" A sea monster armor-piercing bullet hit its armor from the side. The violent explosion blew its body one meter away, just passing by the knight.

"Don't be dazed on the battlefield next time!" Kaia moved the gun away.

"Thank you, thank you!" The knight finally came to his senses.

At this time, King Leidou of Qiuqiu had fallen heavily to the ground, and was beaten half to death by the other knights with sea monster armor-piercing bullets.

It turned around to look at the people of its tribe, but saw in despair that an even more violent explosion had erupted over there. A sea monster armor-piercing bullet shot into its brain, blowing its head to pieces.

The headless corpse knelt down in the direction of his people.

Over there, two sickle machine guns were firing two-and-a-half-centimeter-caliber reinforced bolter shells at a high frequency, reaping the lives of the Hill people like a sickle reaping wheat.

In just two minutes, the two sickle machine guns consumed more than 3,000 rounds of bullets and wiped out all the hill people driven over by the knights. Wherever the bullets passed, the ground seemed to have been plowed back and forth several times, and it was a mess.

At this time, there was no complete body of a Hillichul man in the camp below, almost all of them were broken limbs and arms.

Next, the knights descended to a low altitude of about ten meters and began to check if there were any fish that had escaped the net. Sporadic gunshots continued to sound in the camp.

Kaia saw a small hillman with a severed hand and a severed foot placed on a mass of flesh, and on that mass of flesh was a bloody and broken mask.

He sighed, but pulled the trigger on it anyway.

On this day, Eula, Amber and Kaeya launched large-scale combat operations in the Valley of Falling Stars, the Howling Slopes and the Blue Wind Highlands respectively, and won perfect victories without losing a single soldier. When the victory news from the battlefield was passed back to Mondstadt, the people of Mondstadt took to the streets to sing and dance to celebrate the great victory on the front line.

The spies also quickly passed the specific intelligence from the front line to the leaders of various forces in Mond.

Rosaline naturally also received the intelligence. In order to avoid the reconnaissance of the Sentinel system, she had to go outside the city to contact the spies.

"What?! Those ordinary knights easily destroyed the top elite monsters with a weapon called a grenade launcher? And they won with fewer people in the battle, and no one was injured?"

Rosalin looked at the spy with some suspicion. No matter how she looked at it, this sensational news seemed like a fantasy and could not possibly be true.

At this time, another spy came from Mondstadt and handed her a piece of paper: "Reporting to the Executor, the Knights' Captain Jean has publicly posted relevant information about explosive weapons in the city!"

Rosaline took the paper, which said that the bolter was invented by that abominable Shen Qin, and there were three different models. The Knights announced the horrific lethality data of the weakest Cerberus pistol and five different types of bolter bullets, and announced that Liyue would also introduce complete bolters, and the two sides officially became allies!

"Shen Qin! It's you again!" She gritted her teeth and cursed the Liyue man who had gone against her time and time again.

"Send this information back to Zhidong and have the headquarters send someone else to handle this matter." She decided not to get involved in anything related to him. Besides, her own mission had not been completed yet, and if she delayed any further, the chances would get smaller and smaller.

After the Knights have cleared out the monsters and the Cult of the Abyss in Mondstadt, they will go to the ruins of the Wind Dragon to solve the problem of Tevarin. Once its problem is solved, it will be difficult to find the God of Wind and take away His Heart of God!

With the support of the grenade launcher, the Knights' operations progressed extremely quickly, and Shen Qin had already begun to prepare to research real strategic heavy weapons.

Bolter and Dragoon I are good enough to deal with combat forces below the leader level, but they are not enough to deal with demons of Tevarin's level. We must have some real "national-level weapons"!

When he proposed this idea to Jean, she was still a little hesitant. The promotion of the grenade launcher was already stressing her out, not to mention a strategic weapon that could be used to deal with the demons.

"You can discuss it with everyone in the Knights Templar and see what they think. If most people disagree, I will give up this idea." Shen Qin said with some regret.

If he cannot develop it in Mondstadt, then he can only go to Liyue to do some research and development temporarily. I believe that people like Ningguang and Keqing will definitely have the courage to do so.

Chapter 94 I Really Hope You Can Blow Up the Cathedral

Qin first went to ask Albedo, Lisa and Sucrose. Except for Sucrose who was worried, Albedo and Lisa both agreed with Shen Qin's research plan.

After Grand Captain Falga left with the expedition team, Mondstadt has been lacking top combat power. In recent years, it has been somewhat unable to cope with various emergencies, and the actions of unfriendly organizations such as the Fatui have become more rampant in Mondstadt.

Tevarin's attack on the city revealed Mondstadt's last fig leaf. If Shen Qin and the wind god Barbatos had not been present, Mondstadt would have suffered even more serious losses.

The bolter has greatly improved the mid-range combat power of the Knights. It can even be said that in a large-scale war, the Knights equipped with bolters have been ranked in the first tier of all military combat power rankings.

At present, Mond still lacks leader-level combat power.

Albedo said, "Captain Jean, you don't need to worry too much. Mondstadt now has the strength to compete with other forces on the front battlefield. If we continue to become stronger on this basis, other forces will be more wary and will not choose to be our enemy."

"That's right. Strategic weapons that can be used against demons are more of a deterrent, so that our enemies don't dare to use their leader-level combat power." Lisa also agreed with the research and development of strategic weapons. "But if we still only have elite-level combat power, like the previous dragon disaster, when the enemy deploys leader-level combat power, we will lose the initiative."

Although they can deal with it at a cost, the cost will definitely be very high.

"But, but, the Sky Shield, Sentinel System and Bolt Gun recently developed by Shen Qin have attracted the attention of other forces. Forces like the Fatui regard him as a thorn in their side. If he develops weapons that can deal with the leader level... I am very worried about his safety!" Sugar said worriedly.

She also understood the importance of strategic weapons to Mond, but she was also very worried about Shen Qin's personal safety.

Albedo trusts Shen Qin very much: "Since he has proposed this idea, he must have considered various situations."
