Chapter 130 The Production Team's
"What's the matter, little brother?" Ben looked at Liu Chi.
Liu Chi crouched down again, took out a pen and paper and began to draw the gun parts he designed.
Janet looked at Liu Chi, shook her head, and waved her hand, and a round table and a chair with an armchair suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Let's do this. Squatting is so tiring."
Hearing Janet's voice, Liu Chi turned his head and without thinking much, sat down next to Janet.
That's how Janet was able to see the gun diagram drawn by Liu Chi, but she didn't understand what it was.
In order to keep it secret, Liu Chi only drew part of the pistol first.
"Uncle Ben, please help me do these first. I have marked the consumption of three pieces of metal above."
As a master craftsman, he understood what Liu Chi meant at a glance when he got Liu Chi's professional drawings.
Take a small part from each of the three pieces of metal and make three accessories as shown in the picture.
I don't know what's on the blueprint, and I think Liu Chi wants me to make a magic prop.
Soon Ben got to work.
Liu Chi continued to draw the remaining gun parts drawings, putting each one into the space ring after finishing it, without giving Janet any chance to figure it out.
Ben took the three parts and handed them to Liuchi who was rummaging through a pile of ore.
"Master... little brother, I have finished what you want. Take a look and see if it is like this?"
Liu Chi looked up and saw Ben holding a wooden tray with three parts neatly arranged on it.
After confirming that everything was correct, Liu Chi directly put the parts into the space ring, then took out two parts drawings and placed them on the wooden plate.
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding. They didn't say anything, but understood everything.
Ben happily returned to his own refining furnace with the parts diagram.
As for Liu Chi, he was looking for the raw materials for gunpowder. In this world, due to the existence of magic, gunpowder has not even been invented yet, and the few raw materials can only be used as a catalyst at most.
Referring to Zhu Xiu's memory, although it was impossible to perfectly replicate the gunpowder in the bullet, it was already possible to produce the most basic explosion. Liu Chi put several different large pieces of ore into the space ring, then walked to Ben who was refining the weapon and took out the stone.
"What are you doing?"
Ben looked at the large pieces of ore, wondering what Liu Chi was going to do.
“Uncle Ben, help me purify it and give me some charcoal powder.”
"What are you doing? Are you preparing to refine weapons?" Ben's face turned into one of shock and surprise. He thought Liu Chi was going to use these things to refine weapons, and what he was asked to process were just scraps.
Seeing Ben's thoughts, Liu Chi smiled and said, "I do want to make something, but I want you to handle it all, Uncle Ben. I trust you!"
I thought Liu Chi said this to me out of consideration for Janet and wanted to hide his strength in front of her.
Putting this aside, having a sacred weapon master who can guide them in refining weapons and let them process them is undoubtedly the dream of countless craftsmen. It can also be said that it is something that only happens in dreams. You have to know that there are no sacred weapon masters in the entire continent.
The current situation of this continent is that the gods who have entered the realm of immortality have long since left this plane. After reaching the god level, the magic elements of this continent can no longer satisfy the practice of the god-level strongmen.
In ancient times, fifty thousand years ago, the magic element in this world was quite abundant, enough to support many powerful people. Later, the magic element began to dry up, and a group of god-level masters began to look for other planes.
At the beginning, some very strong people were unwilling to leave, but if they continued to stay, the magic energy they consumed for one day was equivalent to the magic energy of tens of thousands of people.
The last group of people left about two thousand years ago. Since then, there have been no more god-level masters on the continent, and the departure of the god-level masters also took away most of the knowledge and technology.
In today's world, after more than two thousand years of cultivation, the depletion of magic essence has gradually improved and maintained at a constant level.
To reach the level of a master craftsman, in addition to having strong personal strength, one must also have enough time to refine equipment and grow. Many people cannot even achieve the first item, so the master craftsman is called the ceiling for civilians.
Most of the best weapons on the continent are made by dwarves. The dwarves' great strength, endurance and long lifespan give them a unique advantage in weapon refining and wine making.
Ben threw the ore that Liu Chi brought over into several refining furnaces on the side. It can be said that refining is the first step in learning to refine equipment, and it is also a relatively important step in the early stage. The quality of the refined product directly determines the quality of the subsequent finished product.
Liu Chi stood behind Ben and watched him refine the weapon.
In terms of theoretical knowledge, Liu Chi can easily get full marks, but in practice, Liu Chi obviously has no experience.
After several rounds of handover of drawings, all the spare parts of the three pistols were collected by Liu Chi into the space ring, and the next step was to prepare to make bullets.
The raw materials for gunpowder have been refined, and Liu Chi persuaded Ben to continue alchemy.
Ben had no idea why Liu Chi needed so many metal cylinders, so he could only obey and smelt two thousand in two pots.
Then something even more outrageous happened. After refining two bullet shells, Liu Chi asked Ben to refine two thousand warheads. After that, he asked Ben to engrave spells on the bullet shells and warheads.
This huge project made Ben sweat profusely. He thought it was over, but Liu Chi asked him to grind the ore he had just refined into powder, mix it with charcoal powder according to the proportion, and finally put it into the small cylinder and cover it with a small iron block.
Fortunately, Ben knew magic, had enough patience and was careful enough, so he regarded this work as a test for Liu Chi to accept him as his apprentice.
If the full score is 100, then the completion of this book can reach 200.
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Janet took out her crystal ball early to watch the freshman game.
At lunch, Janet took out some snacks from her space ring and shared them with the two.
Ben, who couldn't get used to sweet food, generously took out the top-grade monster meat that he had treasured for many years. It was cooked in advance just like ham, and could be eaten after just slicing.
Ben did this had nothing to do with Janet, he just wanted to please his future master.
Janet didn't say anything about it. She had already noticed that Ben was not acting normal today.
After lunch, Ben continued to process two thousand bullets, and Liu Chi sat behind Ben to "supervise".
Time passed minute by minute, and after handing over the last batch of bullets, Ben breathed a sigh of relief. Just when he thought everything was over, Liu Chi made another request.
Continue making a thousand bullets, but without enchanting them.
Although Ben was very tired, he quickly got into work mode.
After delivering the goods again, the additional thousand bullets were also completed, and it was already evening by this time.
Janet put away the crystal ball and felt sleepy as she looked at the two of them.
"Is there anything else to do? Master!"
Ben shouted excitedly, which brought Janet back out of her daze.
"Ah!? Are you done?"
Janet responded and said to the two of them.
"Well, it's over. I have to thank Uncle Ben for helping me so much."
Ben was like a child being performed, with a smug look on his face.
"Then let's go!" Janet stood up and put all the tables and chairs into the space ring.
"I'm really sorry to bother you today, Uncle Ben!"
Seeing Liu Chi and Janet leave, Ben stood there, stunned for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he immediately started making weapons for the contestants in the freshman competition while the refining furnace was still warm.
Liu Chi and Janet walked out of the courtyard with the word "Jing" placed on the door, and Janet was the first to ask questions.
"It's getting late. Why don't you finish eating before leaving? I haven't had a chance to talk to you alone. I helped you, so you should respond to me, right?"
"Well then! I, Zack, am Her Majesty's man today, and I am willing to obey your orders."
Seeing that the queen wanted him to stay, Liu Chi decided to try to complete the side quest given by the system. Although he didn't know what the reward for the quest was, there is a saying that goes, even a small amount of money is worth a lot.
Janet couldn't help but smile when she saw Liu Chi still calling himself Zack. He is quite good at acting!
"Well, come sit at my place."
"it is good!"
Liu Chi followed Janet to her residence, which was the most prominent and central castle among the three castles of the royal palace.
Because Janet has no children, only a few royal family members who have a good relationship with Janet live in the huge palace. Janet's other brothers and sisters are serving as "little kings" and "little queens" in other territories of the Sunset Empire.
Janet's boudoir was not as big as Liu Chi had imagined. It was less than ten meters deep at the entrance and only six meters wide. It was simply furnished with two beds, one large and one small, and a coffee table across the corridor in front of the beds.
If you didn't know, you would think this was a servant's room in a palace.
"Does the queen live here on weekdays?" Liu Chi asked.
"You didn't expect a queen like me to live here, did you? But this is where I live."
Janet said.
She had lacked a sense of security since childhood, so she forced herself to practice hard. Even after becoming a great magician at the age of eighteen, she still felt insecure, so she continued to live here. The small bed over there was where her personal maid slept.
"No wonder the Sunset Empire has become the largest country in the West. Her Majesty is so frugal, which is much better than the extravagance of other countries."
"Haha~ There's no need to talk about flattery. Now that we've finished watching, let's go to the restaurant to eat."
"it is good!"
Liu Chi followed Janet to the restaurant she mentioned. The Queen's restaurant was not as luxurious as Liu Chi had imagined. It was just a small square table with rounded corners that could just seat two people. There was a crystal chandelier above and a window that offered a view of the city. There was nothing else.
After the two of them sat down, the food slowly began to arrive on the table, with Liu Chi and Janet each having two steaks.
After knowing that Liu Chi couldn't drink alcohol, Janet asked her personal maid to pour juice for Liu Chi, while she continued to drink.
"You and your dad are so alike. Even your movements and expressions when eating are the same!"
Liu Chi looked at Janet and found that she was looking at him with a smile. Although he knew long ago that Janet might have recognized him, when this layer of window paper was really broken, Liu Chi found that he could no longer act.
"Queen, do you know my father?"
Liu Chi responded to Janet with a smile, and their eyes met.
