Lu Cheng came to the front of the shield and stretched out his hand to touch the surface of the shield.
The small fireball burned off a cloth emblem on the surface of the shield, but the shield itself was not damaged at all.
"This shield is a gift from the Kingdom of Enkes. The Kingdom of Enkes is famous for forging ironware. Even in our country, it is one of the strongest shields."
General Hubert introduced the origin of this shield to Lu Cheng, which also represented his glorious past.
"Or an epic item? The best shield in the country?"
Lu Cheng reached out and touched the surface of the shield.
Lucheng didn't know much about ironware, but the iron surface of this shield was very smooth, with no bumps or bumps on it, so there should be very few impurities inside.
"Are you sure you want to use this shield to test the power of our weapons?"
Lu Cheng finally confirmed with General Hubert that the shield should be quite old and was also the weapon that the general carried with him.
"No problem, Lord Lucheng," said General Hubert.
"Then please step back."
Lu Cheng directly led them to increase the distance between them and the shield.
Because Lu Cheng considered that this shield was really of epic quality. If the bullet failed to penetrate it and ricocheted, it would be life-threatening.
This kind of rollover situation seemed very small to Lu Cheng. The shield itself was not thick. If the 5.8 caliber bullet from the rifle could not penetrate it...
All Lu Cheng could say was that this was not magic.
There was enough space inside the church, but Lu Cheng still led everyone to the other side of the wall.
Lu Cheng directly loaded the Type 95 rifle in his hand and aimed the muzzle at the shield at the end of the church hall.
The moment Lu Cheng loaded the gun in his hand, Noi, who had been hiding behind the picture, covered his ears with common sense.
On the other hand, Elena and General Hubert stared at the Type 95 rifle in Lu Cheng's hand without blinking, as if they wanted to see clearly every step Lu Cheng took.
Lu Cheng actually wanted to say to them, "Look carefully, don't blink," but there was no need for Lu Cheng to remind her, as Elena was already in a state of not blinking.
In this state, Lu Cheng aimed at the shield in the distance and pulled the trigger of the rifle.
The bullet flew out of the chamber, and the explosive sound of the gun echoed throughout the church.
Even though General Hubert was mentally prepared, when he heard the gunshots at close range, his hands couldn't help but tremble, and his body even subconsciously took a step back.
Elena felt her heartbeat suddenly speed up, and it seemed like it was going to stop the next second. She took a step back slightly, but unfortunately her foot slipped and she sat down on the ground.
Once again realizing her loss of composure, Elena wanted to stand up, but Lu Cheng did not stop firing. After firing the first bullet, he pulled the trigger three times in a row.
Three consecutive and intensive noises made Elena realize that sitting on the ground was actually quite comfortable. Well, to put it bluntly, Elena's legs were a little weak.
General Hubert gradually got used to the sound of gunfire, but his hands still shook with every shot.
Bullet casings rolled down from Lu Cheng's feet. Lu Cheng stopped shooting only after firing the fourth bullet.
At this time, Nuoyi released his hands that were covering his ears with an expressionless face.
"This...is this the sound of thunder?" The expression on Hubert's face seemed as if he was doubting his own life.
"Thunder? This is not thunder. It's a little complicated to explain, but isn't it the power of this weapon that you want to know?" Lu Cheng said, pointing to the shield in the distance.
"General Hubert... let's go and take a look..."
Princess Elena then supported herself and stood up. She was still adjusting her rapid breathing while standing up.
She followed General Hubert to where the shield was.
The shield no longer looked like its original self. Elena reached out and picked up the shield. Although it was still a shield, it had turned into a useless lump of iron.
"Pierced by an invisible force?"
Elena stretched out her hand in disbelief and touched the four irregular gaps on the shield. The four gaps were arranged in a terrifyingly neat "田" shape.
The steel at the gaps had completely collapsed. Elena suspected that if the four gaps were in a line, the shield would be split in two.
"Was it pierced by something? An arrow? Or a crossbow?"
General Hubert took the shield from Elena. He felt the notch on the shield with his hand. The metal used to make the shield had flipped to the other side.
This was obviously the result of being pierced through by something, and even the wall behind the shield had four broken gaps.
But the only thing Hubert could think of at the moment was the siege crossbow, but that kind of crossbow was too huge to cause such a small wound.
If it was an ordinary bow and arrow, Hubert could even block it directly with his arms.
The thing that pierced the shield was definitely not a bow and arrow. Hubert couldn't figure out what it was, but he could imagine the consequences of such a thing hitting human flesh.
Maybe it's not just as simple as having the flesh pierced by an arrow.
This thing can definitely bore a terrible hole in human flesh.
"This is the power of the weapon that killed the Blood Crystal Beast..."
Hubert put down the shield in his hand and looked up at the Lucheng team approaching. He was afraid of this unknown weapon.
But Elena is different... this powerful weapon brings her hope.
"Lord Lucheng!" Elena immediately ran to Lucheng and said, "This thing called a gun..."
"I'm sorry, these are weapons, not our products." Lu Cheng interrupted what Elena wanted to say, "We can provide assistance to your country, but we are not doing arms business for the time being."
"Yeah?"
Being rejected so bluntly by Lu Cheng, Elena felt a little disappointed, but she quickly cheered up.
"I will take you to the capital of our country. I must convince my father!" Elena's tone was very firm this time.
But less than three seconds after Her Royal Highness made up her mind, her abdomen began to growl, reminding her that it was time to eat.
Elena's cheeks turned slightly red, but her cheeks were covered with dust and blood so nothing could be seen.
"Lucheng Pavilion..."
"Don't use any honorifics, just call me by my name. It sounds weird," Lu Cheng said.
"Then... Lucheng?" Elena called out tentatively.
"I'm listening."
"Can I use this earth vein crystal fragment to exchange for some food?"
Elena took out the earth vein crystal fragment that she had shown to Lu Cheng before.
The soldiers who had followed her all the way here were completely awakened by the gunshots just now. However, it didn't take long for them to wake up before fatigue, hunger and exhaustion from injuries caused them to continue to fall into a state of mental depression.
"Of course, but isn't this a sacred object in your country?"
Lu Cheng took the fragment of the earth vein crystal directly from Elena's hand. The magic power in the earth vein fragment was instantly absorbed the moment Lu Cheng touched it.
"Even the holy objects are not important compared to the lives of the people," said Elena.
