Few people in this world want to die, at least not Lukla.
Gronn lashed out with the whip of the stone-toothed weapon. Although the desperate pain did not destroy Lukla's body after shielding the pain through secret methods, the feeling of life passing by crazily directly destroyed the young man's original self. It cannot be called a firm will.
Instinct told Lukla that if he continued to stand here, the only outcome waiting for him would be death after Goron wielded three whips. Compared with death, the threat from the official members of the fairy tale seems not so scary...
Without any warning, the ninth trainee who was whipped by Goron didn't speak, didn't look back, and didn't make any unnecessary moves. He stepped out and rushed out of the tent.
His actions surprised Goron. As an ogre, in Goron's subconscious, there was no such concept of willpower collapse and escape. In addition, the whip was really unsatisfactory, so Goron failed to stop Lukla's escape in time and asked him to rush out of Black Jack's camp. Speed is not the ogre's strong point, so Goron could only look at Lukla's back with a little regret, thinking in his mind whether he should make one more trip tonight.
The magician Black Jack remained silent and walked slowly outside the camp door. He turned his palm and a double-barreled dwarf pistol appeared in his hand. Black Jack raised his hand and slowly aimed at Lukla.
Gronn shook his head secretly. There were a lot of dwarf muskets in the Black Hand Ogre's warehouse. They were even one of Gronn's most important toys when he was a child. The skinny Gronn still imagined that he could use this simple and easy-to-use weapon. , even the weapons he could master became a little more powerful, and in the end he was naturally disappointed. No matter how close it was, it could not penetrate the thick skin of ogres or high-level monsters, and it was different from Amazons. Compared with the centaur's bow, arrow and javelin, the musket is just a pile of scrap metal.
Therefore, Goron is very familiar with the power of this thing. The effective killing range of the dwarf spear does not exceed one hundred meters, and the range of the pistol is only 25 meters. In fact, the dwarf pistol with extremely poor accuracy can target targets beyond five meters. It's already hard to hit the target.
As a dark walker, Lukla's speed was his specialty. In the blink of an eye, he had already run at least eighty meters away. Coupled with the fighting spirit in him that had regrouped, it was impossible for the musket in Black Jack's hand to harm him at all. , Groron has even thought that his master actually wants to let Lukla go, and now he is just pretending to show it to him. After all, although guns are useless to the real strong, they can be very powerful. It efficiently kills ordinary human civilians, so like the giant weapons that ogres can use, it is one of the dangerous items controlled by the state. Not every teenage child knows much about it.
Touch~~~!
Although it sounded like there was only one gunshot, Gron, who had a particularly keen hearing, was able to tell that these were actually two gunshots in a row. However, because the frequency of the gunshots was too fast and the intervals were too short, the gunshots were almost connected together. , it will be as if only one shot was fired.
This is exactly what happened. From the muzzle of Black Jack's gun, a little spark and a little cold light as big as peas were shot out, and they were shot at the roots of Lukla's legs. Goron's dynamic vision was excellent. Almost at the same time, the scene of two bullets being blown away by Lukla's fully inspired fighting spirit was generated in his mind.
If the bullet can fly eighty meters.
but…
An incredible scene happened. The two bullets were neither deflected by Dou Qi nor penetrated into the human body. Instead, they exploded into a large ball of fireball and ice blast respectively. Lukla, who was hit in both legs, was directly blown into the air. When he fell to the ground, he couldn't even scream.
Goron stepped forward to check and saw that one side of Lukla's entire lower body was burned to coke, and the other side was frozen into ice slag. The parts below the buttocks, including the little brother, were completely blown to pieces. The bones were completely exposed, and the flesh and blood were blurred. Even if Goron was willing to use secondary treatment waves to treat him, it would be impossible to save him. However, because the wound was either burnt or frozen, he could survive for a while without a lot of bleeding.
Goron's heartbeat accelerated when he saw it. Black Jack's two shots just now were clearly the fireball and ice blast techniques in magic. Although they are both elementary magics and their power seems to have shrunk a bit, compared with the magic that a magician uses to release magic, These two magic bullets do not require chanting spells, and they do not require mana consumption. More importantly, Black Jack who fired these magic bullets does not know any magic at all, but in an instant, he will be an elite trainee with first-level average strength. Lukla was beaten to such a desperate state that there is no doubt about the power and practical value of this weapon.
"Now that you have completed the training of hiding objects, we can start the next stage of the course, which is about the application of these 'small props'." Black Jack said absently, while holding the dwarf pistol in his hand. The barrel of the gun was opened, and two cylindrical metal bullets were ejected from the inside. The bullets' warheads were two white turbid crystals.
Although the color is different, for some reason, Goron felt that the texture of the bullet's warhead was somewhat similar to the two Ai Zhe red stones in his hand.
Black Jack neatly put the white bullets into his arms, and like lightning, took out two bullets with golden rays and pressed them into the barrel of the gun. He closed the barrel with a snap and pointed the muzzle straight into the distance. a shadow.
"Big stupid pig, if I were you, I would not do anything impulsive, because that may be a decision that you will regret for the rest of your life."
As Black Jack's words fell, the seemingly empty void suddenly became distorted, and then a short and fat figure appeared out of thin air. It is Lukla's teacher, the pig boss among the three clowns.
This was the first time that Goron took a closer look at this guy. The first impression he gave people was naturally that he was fat. The length of this funny clown with pig face paint on his face was probably longer than his height when viewed horizontally. His neck and waist were completely retracted in his chest and abdomen. The end of his stubby limbs close to the body was thick and fat, but the end connecting the wrists and ankles was thin and small. In addition, his hands and feet were also unusually small. As a result, his entire body looked like a big ball of flesh with four conical sprouts sticking out.
But Gron, who had seen him take action with his own eyes, knew that in addition to being a circus clown, he was also a top assassin with a strength close to that of a war king.
At this time, the fat on the pig boss's face was twisted into a ball, and the originally funny paint looked particularly ferocious. His eyes looked back and forth between Lukla lying on the ground and the unharmed Goron, and finally He fixed on Black Jack and said viciously: "Black Jack, what do you mean?"
Black Jack snorted coldly and said: "It's just that your apprentice wants to play a game with Goron. When he loses, he wants to run away, so I will give him a lesson."
"Hmph~~~! I don't believe it anymore. If you didn't cause trouble, how could Lukla lose? I think it was you who deliberately set up the game to kill my apprentice."
The Pig Boss's speculation was illogical and almost unreasonable. However, Black Jack did not refute or deny the Pig Boss' frame-up accusations. He just had a sneer on his face and kept pointing his gun at the Pig Boss.
"Hmph, Black Jack, don't think your magic missiles can threaten me. Those little tricks and stinky toys of yours can only be used to bully the little devils at best."
"You are right, the magic missile does not threaten you, but I was too abrupt. I'm really sorry..."
Black Jack smiled apologetically and flipped his palm. The beautifully decorated golden flintlock short gun had disappeared, and was replaced by a single-barreled pistol with a simple and ancient structure without any decoration.
"If the 'Magic Missile' can't deal with you, what about the 'Magic Seed Bomb'?"
The Pig Boss's expression suddenly changed, and there was still a hint of fear. This was almost unimaginable to Gron. The musket recognized on the mainland as only capable of bullying civilians could actually make a top killer cower in fear in the hands of Black Jack. . Magic missiles should be the special bullets that can stimulate magic just now, and what are those called 'magic seed bullets'.
To Goron's disappointment, the pig boss did not give Goron a chance to see the power of the magic bullet. Without saying a word, he flicked the flying rope in his hand and pulled Lukla on the ground. The pig boss will The disciple who was seriously injured and died frequently was tucked under his arm and looked at Gron. The cold murderous intent in his eyes was terrifying. Apparently, he blamed all the humiliation and anger he suffered today on the little ogre who was unlucky to be lying in the gun. This made Goron couldn't help but frown. Although he can use assassination to solve "trouble" of this level like Lukla, when faced with a real strong man, a formal member of the Fairy Tale Circus, Goron has no way to deal with it.
After the pig boss left, looking at Goron who was looking down thoughtfully, Black Jack smiled coldly and said, "Why, you're scared."
"Yes." Goron did not deny it and said straightforwardly: "That Mr. Clown wants to kill me, and I have almost no means of self-protection."
"Hmph, although your life and death has nothing to do with me, if you are willing to pay the price, then I can guarantee your safety for a period of time, or teach you the means of self-protection. What will you choose?"
"What price do I have to pay to learn how to protect myself?" Goron's words were always simple and direct.
"Do you want to learn how to protect yourself instead of seeking my asylum? You know, even if you can learn something from me, it is not enough to guarantee your life."
"But you can't protect me anytime, anywhere, let alone for a lifetime." Goron lowered his head and said.
Black Jack nodded and did not continue the topic. Instead, he said: "In this case, you come in with me. We can discuss the price later..."
... ...
In the tent, Black Jack sat on the ground, placed a dwarf musket and a few bullets on the ground, and said casually: "Looking at your reaction just now, if I'm not wrong, it shouldn't be the first time you've seen someone else use Killing with a musket, oh, I almost forgot that you were born into a family of executioners, of course you have seen this kind of thing, but can you use it?"
Gronn nodded, and under Black Jack's gaze, he picked up the short gun from the ground. It was different from the performance pistol he had used to practice hiding. This was a real pistol for killing people. The manufactured weapon, and although this gun is very similar to the toys that Goron played with when he was a child, many traces of manual modification can still be seen.
Gron skillfully picked up a gunpowder bullet from the ground, loaded it, took aim, and shot a small rubber ball five meters away with a clean movement.
Gronn used to be lawless with the plundered dwarf muskets in the Black Hand tribe. He could hit wherever he wanted and whoever he wanted. He couldn't break the thick skin of the ogre anyway, but he still managed to get a bunch of fat blue chickens. In the end, it was not until he almost blinded King Mogar's one eye with one shot that Gronn was pulled by the giant demon Rafanara and spanked him severely. Only then did he stop. Later, he became obsessed After reading stories and cooking, I never touched this toy that I once loved so much.
"It seems that you have indeed played with muskets before, and you are very skilled at it. Is it possible that the executioner family is studying the use of muskets for executions? Forget it, it saves me a lot of trouble anyway." With that, Black Jack took out another one A special bullet about the size of a thumb with a whitish turbid crystal warhead was handed to Gron.
Gron took this magical bullet that once released real magic and studied it carefully.
Ordinary dwarf musket bullets are loaded with black gunpowder, and the warheads are round lead pellets. After the gunpowder explodes in the barrel, the lead pellets are pushed out of the barrel to achieve the purpose of killing targets at long distances.
But the bullet that Black Jack handed to Goron had a warhead made of this low-quality crystal that looked very fragile and cheap. After removing the crystal, the bullet was filled with some unknown liquid.
"Try pressing the warhead crystal with your thumb, and then activate your secondary healing wave magic."
Gronn followed Black Jack's instructions. While chanting the divine incantation, he immediately felt that the healing magic was directly sucked into the crystal warhead. When the incantation was completed, the turbid crystal that was originally white in color turned out to be It turns into a top-grade gemstone with green, crystal clear texture and faint brilliance of natural divine power.
"This is an energy-infused crystal, also known as the Mayan white stone. It is of equal value to the Ai Zhe red stone. Its function is to store the magic power of the sequence, that is, the magic or magic that has been formed. The effect is similar to the magic scroll, but even without magic power It can be stimulated. Try again, press the tail of the spring with your thumb, and press it as hard as you can. "
This time, it was not the magic power that was sucked away by the bullet, but his physical strength. It was not until Gron became tired as if he had run around the playground for more than ten times that the weird bullet finally stopped absorbing his energy. Strength, and the liquid-like substance previously contained in the bullet has solidified into a transparent powder.
"This is the 'Power Storage Magic Powder', which can store pure kinetic energy and release it in one breath when needed. Just when you pressed down on the miniature magic array pattern engraved on the tail of the bullet, your power was sucked into these magic powders. , will eventually become the driving force of magic. In other words, the stronger you are, the farther the range of the magic missiles you launch will be. Maya White Stone can store magic, and power-storing magic powder can absorb power. This is originally the case. The research results of alchemy masters hundreds of years ago, but due to the high value of Mayan white stone, it is far inferior to the low-cost sheepskin magic scrolls in terms of storing magic, and the power-storing magic powder is even more useless for weak magicians. , until the dwarf alchemist Vegapunk Black Barrel improved the dwarf muskets and created a new generation of magic cannon based on these two technologies. Therefore, five years ago, a new combat class called the magic cannon user was born. Finally appeared... "
