98 – Episode 98 Food Independence

[Completeness: 23]

“I finally turned 20.”

Completion level of early guns 9.

Trigger gun perfection 15.

Completed a new blueprint with a completeness level of 8.

“If this continues, will both accuracy and destructive power increase?”

Previously made guns were referenced to modern Korean rifles.

Of course, it looks like a rifle seen in a drama,

The size of the bullet, stock, and aiming followed those of modern Korean rifles.

That was the only time I saw a gun in real life.

On the other hand,

The gun I made this time was completely changed.

First, I raised the bullet.

Accordingly, the barrel was also widened.

The length of the barrel was also increased.

Not only this, the barrel was made thicker.

The chamber containing the gunpowder was also made more sturdy.

In short, it means that it has become bigger and stronger than before.

“Accuracy was improved by increasing the length, and the amount of gunpowder was increased by increasing the overall size of the gun.”

There are also disadvantages.

The point is that the gun has become larger and heavier.

“I guess I’ll have to make it first to find out.”

The city train was also completed.

Now the time has come to leave.

.

.

City Iron.

“So. “Are you telling me to make this gun?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you suddenly change like this?”

“We made a stronger gun.”

Deves frowned.

“From bullets to firearms. I made a mold to fit all sizes. “Do you really need to change it?”

“Of course.”

It’s not that I don’t understand his feelings.

What can we do?

What I need.

“… I understand.”

From Noble mtl dot com

“Oh, and first, just make it look decent and make it quickly.”

Dbe, who was carrying the blueprint, flinched.

He stopped and slowly turned his head.

“I understand. Master.”

‘Why are you being polite?’

.

.

No matter what, Debé had good skills.

Because he created a gun that looked similar to the blueprint.

When I first picked up the gun, the feeling was ‘heavy.’

It was heavier than just being heavy.

‘The gun weighs 10 kg? Is it heavier than that?’

Because the basic form was the same, it behaved like shooting.

First load,

It was quite heavy, but I was able to load it.

To be precise, it was a reloading motion.

Because it is not a real gun that only looks good.

Pick up your gun and take aim.

The aiming line is shaking wildly.

The hand holding the gun was strained.

The gun I made now is quite long.

Hold the end of the gun, not the center.

It is easy to lift an iron pipe by holding the center, but it is quite difficult to lift it by holding the ends.

That principle was at work here.

It was a gun that weighed about 10 kg, but it was difficult to lift it by holding only one side.

I even had to hold and aim like that.

“This won’t work?”

He extended his left hand further to support the gun, but it was just as heavy.

“I’ll fire a few shots, but anything more than that will be difficult.”

Then you are giving up one of the advantages of the gun.

Unlike a bow or crossbow, a gun consumes little stamina even when fired multiple times.

But with its current shape and weight, it would have consumed a lot of stamina.

“Should we reduce the size?”

If you reduce the size,

Accuracy and penetration power decrease.

‘With old guns, you can only kill trolls at close range.’

The fact that you can kill a troll with an ordinary soldier is amazing.

I want more than that.

A musketeer who catches trolls from a distance.

‘We absolutely have to improve.’

The trolls are not the end.

There is an ogre above it.

If you go north, there are many stronger monsters.

‘We can’t give up accuracy and penetration. If I had raised it more, I would have grown it.’

I leaned the heavy gun against the wall and sat down next to it.

If the size cannot be reduced,

Convenience must be increased.

‘First… Let’s make a strong strap so you can carry it on your shoulder.’

Shooting is a problem, but carrying it around won’t be easy either.

I need to make it so that I can carry it on my shoulder while marching.

‘And again…’

I applied a few things that came to mind.

But in the end, the important issue is the moment of shooting.

You will only be able to hit the enemy if your aim is stable.

I picked up the gun again.

I held the gun with both hands firmly.

I looked at the scale and aimed at the target.

Little by little, the aiming line wavered.

It took strength to withstand the weight,

At the same time, the arms and guns were shaking.

‘That’s not possible either. ‘I need a solution.’

10Kg.

Even if you hit it a lot, it will still be around 13kg.

‘It is not difficult for an adult male to lift 13 kg.’

If you ask me to lift a 20 kg steel pipe right now, I can lift it.

However, if you ask them to hold the end as if holding a gun, it will be difficult.

‘In the end, we have to support it from the other side.’

I approached the low wall nearby.

I raised the tip of the gun there and took a shooting stance.

‘It’s comfortable.’

The aiming line does not shake.

I didn’t feel any heavy weight.

‘If there is a place to support it, this is useful enough. So should it only be used for defense?’

It is difficult to wear something outdoors like now.

It’s not just one or two people, but more than a hundred people will have to search at the same time.

‘Why not make a portable support instead?’

It doesn’t have to be a wall like it is now.

Anything to support the weight of the muzzle is sufficient.

‘It would be much more comfortable if there was just a wooden stick. Does that make the musketeer too uncomfortable?’

You have to carry a gun that weighs over 10kg and an additional wooden stick.

In the end,

Convenience vs Firepower

It is a fight between the two.

With current technology, it is impossible to create a firearm that is convenient and has excellent firepower.

‘If I had to give up one of the two… It would probably be convenience.’

We didn’t make gunpowder weapons simply to kill goblins and orcs.

Trolls and ogres must also be captured.

That way I will be safe,

Furthermore, the whole of Ireland will become a better place to live.

Cult of the Moon.

Office of the 9th Cardinal.

“Failure again?”

There was deep anger in the cardinal’s voice.

“I’m sorry.”

Even the high-ranking priest’s apology fell on deaf ears.

Failure. Failure. Failure.

Everything we do to deal with Elwin is failing.

First, I approached Elwin’s subordinate.

I contacted not only the knight Hans, but also everyone who held important positions under him, including Isaac, Russell, and Aine.

However, there was no gap visible.

Rather, we ended the operation early for fear of being caught.

‘That could be so. ‘These are key subordinates.’

So I changed my goal,

He approached the lowest class of serfs and slaves.

I said so.

‘Even they are deeply loyal. What on earth happened to this land?’

So I tried a new method.

“But it’s a failure again? How can that be? Benia, the eldest, and Alencia, the second, must be in competition, right?”

A force that can directly influence the Frontier.

Ireland’s loser.

Attempted to move the Vampires family.

Especially because the two princesses are competing for the position of successor.

“Both princesses declined our offer.”

Bam!!

“So. “You asked how that could be possible!”

Currently, two powers exist beneath the surface of Ireland.

1 Those who follow Princess Benia,

2 Those who follow Princess Alencia.

If you are Irish, you must choose one of three.

Benia / Alencia / Neutral

If Elwin is neutral, the princess has no reason to refuse.

Instead of helping to kill Elwin, you can get help in becoming his successor.

If Elwin follows either Benia or Alencia,

The remaining princesses must accept our proposal.

Because you can get help from the church while eliminating enemies.

‘But. They both refused. Why? ‘Why on earth?’

“Cardinal, if you approach Duke Vampires…”

“What!? Duke?”

The Duke cannot be touched.

Due to the nature of the empire electing the emperor,

Dukes are the highest level beings in the empire.

Even if they were cardinals of the Order of the Moon, they were burdensome.

Besides, the Duke of Vampires doesn’t serve the moon goddess.

‘Should we move the noble family that serves the goddess again?’

“That’s annoying.”

If there were no other denominations, you could move directly and eliminate Elwin.

Because self-author So Young-ju is nothing but a weak entity in front of the Moon Church.

“Find another way. If there is no way, then at least find a reason to attack him!”

The high-ranking priest trembled at the cardinal’s shouting.

The Order of the Moon has a strict hierarchy.

Even high-ranking priests can be demoted to priest status if they fall out of favor with the cardinal. It was common for people to even be kicked out of the church.

“What are you doing?”

“Yes… Yes!?”

“What are you doing! “I told you to come find me right away!”

“Ah… I understand! “Cardinal!”

The high-ranking priest hurriedly left the office.

The moment I came out into the hallway,

My frustrated mind felt much better.

“Huh…”

Recently, it is difficult every time I see the Cardinal.

I even started to feel sick as the report got closer.

This pain did not get better even when I used divine power.

Jeobbuk. Jerk.

I feel relieved for a moment,

I got nervous again.

‘What kind of method are we looking for?’

Not even Elwin’s subordinates,

Not even a subordinated serf or slave.

Not even Benia.

Not even Alencia.

But moving the nobles of the continent makes things more complicated.

Frontier is located on Monster Island,

To get there, you have to pass through the Duchy of Vampires.

‘Why is it so difficult to kill just one self-authored lord?’

While I was worrying, I arrived at the priest’s office.

Once inside, the priests’ bodies stiffened.

“Everyone come into the room.”

Inside the annex room,

There is another small room used by high-ranking priests.

The priests gathered there.

Boom!

“The Cardinal was angry. If I don’t do this, not only me, but you and everyone else will be lost. Know!?”

“I’m sorry.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Find a way to kill Elwin right now! I mean, find it by any means possible! If that doesn’t work, at least give us a reason to attack him!”

The high-ranking priest who was speaking flinched for a moment.

Because he was imitating the actions of the cardinal he hated so much.

I saw the priests standing in front trembling.

Just like myself a little while ago.

“That’s enough. “Go out.”

The priests left the room one by one.

However, one priest did not leave and remained inside.

“What? “Didn’t you hear me tell you to get out?”

“That is… I have one piece of information.”

“What is it?”

“This is news about Elwin’s younger brother, Gibson Frontier.”
