Chapter 475 Mushroom Cloud
Although the distance was not the longest, Hayata was the last to return to the village due to the overland journey and the two days of recovering from injuries in the camp after the hunting.
Seeing that she was not seriously injured, Gordon was completely relieved.
Pandan inevitably received a round of ridicule from Pork Chop. The hair that was half bald due to the flames of Sakura Fire Dragon cannot grow back in a few days.
It is estimated that it will take another month or two before it can confidently say "I am the cutest!" with arms akimbo as before.
The materials for blending the high-density dragon-killing carbon have been collected, and the next step is for Pig Chop to take action.
Pork Chop first carefully counted the quantities of various materials, "Five gunpowder rocks, six units of blaster dragon's bone marrow, four units of fire dragon's bone marrow, and ten units of dragon-killing fruit."
Hum, Meow Meow Meow, according to the formula, the ratio of materials required for high-density dragon-killing carbon is about one to one to one to three Meow. If it doesn't fail, you should be able to mix three parts of Meow.
Since it must be mixed on site, I hope to test it once first. In this case, there will only be two copies that can really be used."
Anhil, who was watching from the sidelines, suggested, “The quantity is limited by the dragon-killing fruit, but the role of the dragon-killing fruit should only be to provide dragon-attribute energy, and not affect the blending of the explosives?
Is it possible to not use the dragon-killing fruit in the test, or only use one, so that three copies can be used, and the certainty is greater. "
“That makes sense, meow!”
Zhupa nodded heavily, "I've never dealt with dragon-killing fruit before, but it shouldn't be too complicated. Having one to practice with is probably enough, meow!"
“Huhu, I can teach you this, it’s very simple.” Hilda said with a smile.
Different from Gordon and Hayata who could only watch, the two shooters usually had a lot of experience in mixing explosives, so they could make some suggestions and help at times like this.
“The transportation of gunpowder rocks is also a big problem.”
Anhil looked at the big round stones, "A bottle of bone marrow is only about 500 milliliters, and the dragon-killing fruit is not big, so it is not difficult to carry, but this gunpowder rock
It can’t even be stuffed into a luggage, and it’s still explosive. You can’t carry it into a hunting ground alone. It’s too dangerous. "
“Is it possible to preprocess it in advance?”
Hilda came to the soft cushion on which the gunpowder rock was placed and observed carefully, "Most of it should be sand, limestone and other impurities. There shouldn't be too many real active ingredients. Find a way to extract it?"
"It should be possible, but the extraction process needs to be very careful. Maybe you can soak it in water? It shouldn't change when it comes into contact with water. It doesn't matter if it dissolves in water. You can dry it out later." Pork Chop He kept scratching his beard and thinking hard.
Anhir nodded his chin, "You have to try it. There are just as many gunpowder rocks as there are. We can split one and try it a few more times. If we can extract effective substances, not to mention being easy to carry, the final product should also be powerful." Improved.”
“But it’s not without its shortcomings, meow”
Pork Chop almost pulled his beard off, "The original gunpowder rock is so explosive. Once the effective substances are extracted and the impurities are lost, the instability will be greatly increased."
Hilda moved her gaze away from the gunpowder rock and said with a smile: "Just like Ancier said, divide it into small portions and try it a few times. Even extremely unstable substances that can explode when exposed to air can be found. method to save.
Water immersion, oil immersion, freezing
If you really can’t find a way, then consider how to transport the complete gunpowder rock. "
In the following days, Pig Pork, Anhil and Hilda took various tools and headed into the small valley outside the village.
When conducting experiments in the village, I am afraid that the house will be damaged.
A few days later, Pork Chop and the others finally got results, but the cost was that half of the hair on the former's body was burnt.
Xianglan: Happy!
From a single gunpowder rock with an average weight of more than 20 kilograms, about three to four kilograms of dark red powdery substance was extracted.
According to Pork Chop, even without the addition of fire dragon bone marrow, the explosive power of this extremely unstable powder far exceeds almost all known gunpowder formulas.
Such a dangerous thing cannot be just put into a cloth bag and carried away. They kept the powder in a sealed glass bottle filled with kerosene without leaving a trace of air.
After handling it in this way, as long as you carry it carefully, there will be no big problem.
Hilda and Ancil were of little help in the next part of adjusting the high-density dragon-killing carbon, which required more professional knowledge of explosives.
Ordinary people, even hunters who often use various explosive bombs, may accidentally make a mistake.
Another day passed, and the hunters saw the finished product in the small valley.
“I thought it would take more time.”
Gordon asked curiously: "After all, it took more than half a week to purify the gunpowder rock. Why is it so fast?"
Pork Chop put his hands on his hips and said: "That's because the process of preparing dragon-killing carbon is not complicated. It only takes more than half an hour to master it. You just need to be extremely careful."
“Half an hour is enough?”
This statement made Gordon quite happy. Since it requires on-site deployment, the faster the speed, the lower the probability of problems.
“So where is the finished product?”
“That’s it, meow!”
Pork Chop pointed at a clay pot on the ground that was not much larger than an ordinary small barrel of explosive bombs. It contained, or rather contained, a sticky and pungent orange-red gelatinous substance.
Looks a bit like lava.
“Why is it liquid?”
Ancier couldn't help but ask: "High-density dragon-killing carbon, it sounds like it should be a solid substance. Is there really no problem with the blending process?"
Pork Chop, who was questioned, said angrily: "No, meow! Because the impurities in the gunpowder rock have been removed, the purity is actually higher, meow!"
And it’s a ‘prototype’ high-density dragon-slaying carbon, trial type meow! It is because the semi-fluid is not stable enough and is inconvenient to store and transport, and must be mixed before use, so it is called a trial type! "
Gordon pulled Ancil to the back and said a little excitedly: "Ignore him, this guy is just suspicious, hurry up and see the effect?"
He wants to see Big Bang Bang!
Pork Chop looked around, "Where can I try it?"
Gordon casually pointed to the cracks in the rocks on the side of the cliff, "Where are you going to go?"
“No, meow! I’m going to blow up the landslide, meow!”
“It’s not that bad.” Gordon didn’t believe it.
Hayata also looked around. She pointed to a relatively flat area in the distance and suggested: "How about placing it in the center of the flat land?
We just want to see the explosion effect, not really blowing anything up. We should be able to judge the power by looking at the explosion crater left on the ground. "
“Good idea meow.”
“I’ll move it!”
Gordon excitedly wanted to move the clay pot, but was driven away by Pig Chop waving his claws.
“Don’t touch meow!”
Gordon retracted his hand, and Pig Chop finally held the clay pot himself, carefully placed it in the center of the flat ground, then took a can of gunpowder and poured out a fuse that was thirty meters long.
“You guys stay away, meow.”
“The lead wire has been stretched thirty meters, isn’t it enough?”
"Not enough meow! Far from enough, at least a hundred meters meow!" Zhupa bared his teeth and claws, leaving no room for anything.
Gordon was a little reluctant. He wanted to watch Big Bang up close. Fortunately, Ancil, Hilda and Hayata were all relatively cautious.
Forcibly dragged him far enough.
At the end of the gunpowder line, Pig Chop took a deep breath and scratched the ground with his paws. The sparks ignited the gunpowder, and he immediately turned around and ran wildly.
Ten seconds later, the flames reached the clay pot.
The intense firelight, comparable to a flashbang, dazzled the eyes of everyone in the distance, and a golden-red mushroom cloud rose from the depths of the small canyon.
“Boom, boom—!”
