Release that Witch Chapter 166: The eve of the final battle
By the fifth day as agreed, Roland has finally prepared all the raw materials for making lint.
When electrolytic salt water was electrolyzed, he also had a serious leak. He used Anna to cut the remaining copper strips of the bullet as an electrode. As a result, the electrode was dissolved and a pot of brine wasted. In order to prevent chlorine from dissolving in water during electrolysis, The electrolyte is usually saturated salt water, and salt was not considered a cabbage price in this era. Therefore, when draining the waste salt water that was mixed with copper ions and precipitated debris, Roland felt that it had thrown away several gold royal in vain, and finally replaced the electrode with a carbon rod to solve the problem.
Boil the oil with caustic soda and water to remove the fat. After getting the absorbent cotton gauze, he took the remaining caustic soda to the chemical laboratory together.
The esterification of cotton wool is the most important step in the production process. The principle is not clear. He only knows that the gauze must be soaked in the mixed acid solution, and it can be taken out after the nitration is complete. The solution ratio and reaction time are unknown. Roland allowed Cam to be divided into several groups for testing. The hourglass was used to control the time. The small piece of gauze after soaking was repeatedly washed with water, and then soaked in sodium hydroxide solution to reflect the excess acid. The wet product was transported back to the castle and handed over to Wendy. Air dry.
Due to the higher concentration of fuming nitric acid used in the esterification, most of the prototypes can be quickly ignited, and the one with the nitric acid and two sulfuric acid soaked the best results. After obtaining the approximate formula, the laboratory started mass production of immersed and washed lint, and it was immediately transported by the soldiers of First Army. Even the chief alchemist did not know what purpose they made.
The air-dried gauze was cut into nail-sized cubes by the maids, packed into Northern Slope Mountain, and finally filled in the backyard of the firing room. In the absence of a machine-equipped situation, this set of procedures can only be completed by humans. Dry one personal guard and sit apart. Put the glued cotton wool gauze gently into the bottom of ammunition case with a wooden stick, seal the opening of the ignition hole, and then pour the granular black gunpowder into the ammunition case with a funnel. Fill as much as possible.
The last step is to press on the warhead. The warhead processed by Anna and ammunition case have a high degree of fit. After pushing in with your bare hand, you can hit it with a hammer a few times.
The efficiency is a bit low, but it can produce hundreds of rounds a day. By the sixth day, Carter finally used the completely new weapon. As an Chief Knight with excellent physical qualities, his hit rate has been greatly improved after several days of repeated practice. Compared with the shooting performance during Roland military training, it is completely different from cloud mud.
After changing the fixed bullet, Carter finally does not need to hold firearms in the strange shooting posture of the wrist. As long as the sealed cotton is not broken, the bomb nest can be kept clean, and its sensitivity to Mars is The black gunpowder has several times, and the firing rate is also guaranteed.
Taking advantage of the last day, Roland let Carter Lannis practice the quick-draw and double-gun shooting of 12mm caliber pistols. Even with the black gunpowder, the recoil is very considerable. It is difficult to guarantee the hit rate of the second shot with a single-handed gun. In the Roland plan, this was accidentally counterattacked by the backwater behind Ash.
Carter will carry two guns, go on stage. In a tug-of-war, ten bullets are enough to separate the victory and defeat. If he is approached shortly after the opening, he can quickly pull out another gun to fight back. And considering that the opponent's weapon has a certain defense ability, the ten bullets Roland deliberately selected a steel warhead that is not easily deformed, which increases the penetration and reduces the lethality of the cavity. Coupled with the smelting technology of this era, most of the Ash's swords are exaggerated shapes made by pig iron and will not lead to the improvement of qualitative. On the contrary, the large iron weapon cannot be fully forged. The stress distribution is more uneven and cannot be called a good shield. According to Roland's point of view, the big sword at most counts the whiteboard weapon. If the luck is not particularly bad, the possibility of jumping is very low.
Ash wants to beat Carter, you must first approach Knight, which is a natural disadvantage of cold weapons against Firearm. As long as there is no exaggeration to the point where the ballistic Orbit can be seen and the bullets are hidden for an instant, this distance is an insurmountable gap.
*******************
Until it was getting late, Ash did not wait for Macy to fly back to the room.
"Why are you coming back late these days?" she asked, closing the window.
"Lightning took me to catch the birds," Macy turned back into a human shape, took out a roasted bird leg from the waist bag, and the overflowing fragrance filled the room. "I reserved it for you."
"I have eaten it," Ash shook his head, "Is Lightning the witch of Cooperation Association?"
"Yeah," she nodded strongly. "The ability is like me, but also flying, but it is much easier to use." After a pause, she asked, "Sister Ash, do you have to play this game? I think ... they won't follow you, and they live well here. "
Ash startled, without answer.
"Because I even want to stay here," Macy sat down on the bed and said to himself, "The bed is soft and the food is plentiful. When I saw lunch, feudal lord set the table specially In the backyard, I ate with the witches after practice. Everyone said and laughed, he occasionally inserted two sentences, which is completely different from other noble hate. I was also pulled by Lightning to play Gwent card in the afternoon, just two people Ten cards were drawn against each other, and the final point victory was very interesting. They also gave me two sets of cards, Ash sister, would you like to play one? I will teach you. "
"No ..." Ash shook his head, take a deep breath. She also noticed changes in for several days Macy, but it was only then that she suddenly realized that her thoughts seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
Most witchs steal their lives in a day of panic, and a stable and comfortable place is all they seek. For example, Macy, before being accepted by Tilly, has been hiding in the thatched house in the Kingdom Capital slum, like a real bird, curling up in the slits of the roof beams to spend every night. Even if Tilly decided to cross the sea to the east, Macy traveled around and contacted the hidden folk witch, which has not stopped for half a year. It is the first time she has experienced such a peaceful life.
Why is that not the case? It wasn't until she met Tilly that she lived a life that she never dared. Used to the relatively peaceful life of the palace, she ignored the appeal of small town to the meaning of this group of witches. In the eyes of witch, it has always been unparalleled. They want to stay here, they want to protect the territory, it's like they want to protect Tilly ...
If Roland Wimbledon can really resist the crazy God Punishment Army like he said, there is no doubt that this is a better choice than the fjord to go to a completely strange land to build the country of witch. No one can predict how much tribulation will be suffered on the planet.
But if he cannot resist, should witches leave?
Ash suddenly calmed down.
Thinking from another angle, if Tilly cannot stand on the fjord, I am afraid that I will choose to stand by her and guard her to the last moment. As the person who gave herself home, she had no reason to leave first.
"Here we are under the threat of Church's all the time, we can't stop God Punishment Army, Border Town will be destroyed sooner or later."
This test is indeed unnecessary ... but she still decides to complete it, just to be alert or to prove it.
"What if they can stop it?" Macy muttered.
"I hope so, so I will verify this for them." Ash whispered.
She closed her eyes and was ready to go all out. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start casting, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please read.)
