Release that Witch Chapter 1073: Frozen Flame
After visiting the farm, Roland came to the rubber bug laboratory.
The alchemy room, which is only thirty years old, is lined with a row of plastic barrels filled with slime. The solidified milky white glue is everywhere. The cauldron was full of burnt gum, and it was emitting an unpleasant smell. God knew what they had put in it.
The long spoon, bucket and stirring stick used in the experiment deepened this feeling. If you add a few toads and bats, it will be a perfect restoration.
"Your Majesty," Cam Schuire simply nodded to salute, "I think I have found what you want."
Roland noticed his pale face and gauze wrapped around his fingers, "Are you injured?"
"A little problem, it doesn't matter," he waved his hand, and then handed over a cup of light-colored slime, "Your Majesty, see."
Cam turns the cup upside down, but the liquid does not spill, but slowly creeps along the wall of the cup, forming a soft hemisphere at the mouth of the cup
Roland's eyes lighted, and he reached out to catch the jelly-like substance, but was stopped by the chief alchemist.
"No, Your Majesty!" He retracted the cup. "This thing is corrosive."
"I remember the rubber worm slime should be non-toxic and harmless," Roland raised an eyebrow. Otherwise it will not be used for food packaging bags and straws.
"But after mixing blood, it did change properties."
"Blood?" Roland froze slightly, could not help looking at his fingers, "Is the wound on your hand for experimentation ..."
“Of course not, it ’s just an accident,” Cam laughed with a beard. “Even if I ’m crazy, I ’m not going to take myself to do experimental chemistry. It ’s so long. I hope I can go further. Some of them. "
After listening to the explanation of the other party, Roland finally understood the discovery process of the new colloid.
The coagulability of the rubber worm slime comes from the mixture of glandular secretions, and according to the difference in the ratio of the two, bio-rubbers of different hardness can be formed, but they are not fluid and cannot be changed once consolidated.
Cam started from the experience of chemical experiments, grouping various elemental elements or acid-base solutions of joining, but the final results could not be reversed.
After that, the selection of materials was further relaxed. From complex inorganic salts to organic matter, they were thrown in to observe the effect. Although a lot of interesting special colloids were also found during this process, the new gel that Roland wanted was not always obtained.
Until an accident occurs.
He accidentally cut his finger while cutting the waste strip, and the dripping blood contaminated a glass of experimental sample to be consolidated. There was a lot of white gas in the cup, and the Bird Mouth Mushroom in it was dissolved into a pool of yellow water.
The solution also turned into a semi-condensing gel.
"Its biggest feature is that it can retain the characteristics of the mixed material." Cam threw the gel into the stove, and it immediately emitted a bright light, and the flames rose up several meters high. Instead of slowly turning black like the previous rubber block, it turned into a pool of powder. "I only have a spoonful of grease in joining inside. It may not achieve this effect by burning alone. It can be said that it is better than what you ask for!"
Although the old alchemist's voice seemed a bit tired, his tone was full of excitement. Looking at the strong fire, Cam's eyes seemed to have a flame burning. He had clearly conceived in his mind the scene when this gel was used in large quantities.
gasoline gel / napalm is what Roland is trying to make.
It was originally made from gasoline and special thickeners. It is much safer and more lethal than a liquid fuel with extremely low flash point, flammable and explosive, and difficult to attach. With the ignition of explosives, a large area of burning can be created instantly. Once attached, it is difficult to get rid of it. At the same time, the blazing fire will also accelerate the consumption of oxygen, which will cause people to suffocate.
When he saw that the rubber worm slime has similar solidification characteristics, he was thinking of this aspect. If slime can be fully fused with the lighter and allowed to burn fully, a simple and rough one can be obtained. weapon.
red mist is afraid of fire after all.
In the Taqila era, the biggest headache for Federation is the outposts that have been built. The small-scale coverage of red mist allows Holy Army to cling to its hands. It can only rely on witch with isolation or clearance capabilities to take everyone slowly forward. The task of dismantling Mist Storage Tower falls on the mortal army. Often after World War I, Holy Army will pay a great price because of its inflexibility, and mortals will never return.
It is under such a cruel exchange ratio that each establishment of an outpost by Devil can weaken the power of Federation, until the latter can no longer prevent the other party's actions, and is eventually dragged down by Devil from all sides.
If you have the ability to arbitrarily set fire, the threat of enemy outposts will be greatly reduced, and the red mist on which Devil depends will also become a noose to tighten their necks.
Probably because of defeat. impression Too deep, Pasha They ’re so attached to rubber bugs, especially Elicia , Right from the beginning Border Town No.3 There are some criticisms of bugs raised from unknown sources, since Roland Solid fuel weapon After stating her conception again, her attitude changed 180 degrees, and she even mentioned the bug differently.
Roland does not need to bite the bullet and compete with Devil at close range now. He will never let First Army leave the cannon cover until all active targets have disappeared. Therefore, the incendiary bomb is more of a supplementary offensive method. It belongs to the product of "the eggs are not placed in a basket". It will not affect the entire strategic plan. With it, it can save the next part of gunpowder and reduce the production of chemical plants. pressure.
Under this premise, Cam Schuire can find something better, but the problem is ...
"Blood is not a convenient raw material."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty," alchemist replied, "It is not necessary to have human blood ... The blood of cattle, sheep and other livestock can also change its nature, which I have tested. Only The premise is that it must be just released. "
This reassures Roland a lot, but the second question follows, "Why blood?"
"This ..." Cam temporarily becomes silent.
"I think it may have something to do with the bug itself." Pasha replied, "Although it doesn't have the control of that many-eyed monster, but the instinct still exists, that is to capture and store prey, fresh blood is probably among them A trigger. "
This speculation is quite reasonable, he thought, many-eyed monster obviously is not food, so the storage as it is or gel, there is not much difference between them.
"Then start the weapon test as soon as possible," Roland instructed, "Since the ideal raw materials are available, the next step should not take much effort. You can leave the next Kingdom Capital colleagues to do the next thing, after all, you also Having said that, the road to chemistry is still very long. Paying attention to rest is justification. "
"As you bid, Your Majesty." Cam strokes the chest.
"I have another thought," Pasha said suddenly.
"What is it?" Roland looked at her.
"weapon may be able to bring a special audience during the test." She swayed main tentacle Road.
Roland immediately realized who Pasha was referring to. "That guy is alive?"
Since he didn't ask for more information during the chaotic period of soul fusion, he didn't expect to pry open high rank Devil again. Now falling into the hands of Taqila witch, he either chose to commit suicide or was tortured to death by the hatred of the world. He thought that the other party had long become a ghost.
"It doesn't have a hunger strike, as long as it is delivered, it will eat cleanly without any residue." Pasha said briefly.
This shows that it doesn't mean to die at all.
Neither surrender nor confess.
It is waiting for the moment when humans fail completely and they regain their freedom.
Even if hope is slim, it persists.
Is it because it feels too bad to die in the hands of the worm?
"I see," Roland raised his lips, "then bring it with you."
