"This is a Smith & Wesson Model 500 hunting revolver."
Xie Yuan directly handed each of them a large silver revolver with a long barrel. These weapons were all loaded.
Xie Yuan also held one in his hand and showed the two people the action of opening the bullet chamber. Five huge bullets fell from the bullet chamber onto Xie Yuan's palm. They were 0.50-inch Magnum high-power pistol bullets.
0.5 inches or 12.5mm caliber. Because it is such a huge bullet, generally speaking, the standard six-round revolver magazine only has 5 rounds here.
This is not a military pistol, but a civilian pistol specially used for hunting, and because of its large amount of powder, it is still lethal to giant beasts such as elephants and grizzly bears.
The disadvantage is that the recoil of this gun is too great. Many people have even been hit on the head by the muzzle after pulling the trigger, and some even have their wrists broken.
Geralt suddenly looked worried after listening to the introduction: "In that case, what makes you think we can control this gun easily?"
"Then when you use it, try to hold the gun with both hands, like this." Xie Yuan made a gesture of holding the gun with both hands, virtually pressed the trigger guard with his hand, and then feinted the gun with both hands, " This is the power that normal people feel with guns, but are we normal people?”
After saying that, he just put the gun into his waistband like a gun.
Lambert's eyes lit up. "You're quite handsome like this," he said before trying to make a shot of himself.
Not to mention, he is a well-coordinated demon hunter.
"How's it going?" Lambert inserted it into his belt handsomely, imitating Xie Yuan's actions just now, and looked at Xie Yuan proudly.
"Not bad, not bad." Xie Yuan clapped his hands to show encouragement, "That's it..."
"Just what?"
"I'm not a professional performer, I'm a warrior, and I don't often use tricks." Xie Yuan pointed to the M500 in his hand, "And this is not my usual weapon."
The chat between Xie Yuan and Lambert ended here, and the next step was the daily chat between Lambert and Geralt.
how to say? It's very boring and boring, because he has a bad relationship with Vesemir, so he only does some carpentry work every day, or fishing - this master-student relationship will never be harmonious on the surface.
Soon the opportunity for the M500 pistol came, and a group of human-faced monster birds suddenly flew above them.
The human-faced demon bird has a face like a human woman and a body like a bird. Her appearance is very ugly, and she can make chilling screams. Her whole body exudes a stench like a corpse, even in the feces and garbage. The living mice are also reluctant to approach the nest of the demon bird.
Lambert was very curious and eager to see the power of the revolver. Then he stared directly at one of the monsters, aimed like a crossbow, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" Huge flames burst out from the muzzle, and the recoil directly caused Lambert's wrist to snap. This made the M-shaped bald demon hunter's face change slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.
However, the effect of the human-faced demon bird being hit quickly eliminated the slight swelling and pain in Lambert's wrist, and the human-faced demon bird was directly beaten into a ball of scum.
The effect is remarkable. This attack power is even more effective than a silver-plated sword slashing at the human-faced demon bird. The huge kinetic energy does not even need to consider the monster's ability to recover if it is strong - after all, the body is broken and it is impossible to put it back together. of.
This is a monster, not a vampire that heals and regenerates quickly.
"It's great!" Lambert directly aimed at the flock of human-faced demon birds and continuously pulled the trigger. Each loud bullet caused the death of a human-faced demon bird.
"Click! Click!" However, this is an M500 with five bullets after all, and soon Lambert fired the shot.
But it doesn’t matter, Xie Yuan immediately handed over another M500. On the other side, Geralt also pointed at the monster and pulled the trigger secretly. Soon after he finished shooting, Xie Yuan handed over another M500. gun.
Twenty or so human-faced monster birds were gradually killed in the constant gunshots, and none of them escaped - the demon hunter had no intention of letting these monsters go.
After finishing the gun practice, Lambert looked at the "murderous weapon" in his hand lovingly. He imitated Xie Yuan's reloading action and released the cartridge case. The steaming cartridge case rolled out and fell onto his hand.
Xie Yuan took the copper cartridge case from his hand and prepared to refill some propellant to assemble it into bullets when he had time that day.
Lambert held an unfired bullet with two fingers. He looked at the gap with almost no trace of fit, looked at the round copper cylinder body, and touched the thin copper wall inside. With reluctance: "Isn't it difficult to assemble this thing?"
"Fill it separately?" Xie Yuan took the bullet and took a look, "It can contain some propellant and percussion powder. It is not particularly difficult to configure. With the alchemy methods here, it should not be the same to configure substances of the same nature. It’s a difficult thing—just like a warhead can be reproduced.”
"But..." Lambert picked up the thread.
"But don't underestimate the chrome plating on this bullet and these guns... These are made with very advanced processes and very detailed estimates."
Xie Yuan shook the cartridge case and gun in his hand: "Both of these things are unlikely to be easily replicated in this world."
"What a pity!" Geralt and Lambert were a bit unsatisfied. The former was also the guy who just had a lot of fun with the gun. "This means that after you leave, we will no longer be able to use it."
"You don't have to worry about that." Xie Yuan waved his hand indifferently, "Before I leave, I will make you pull the trigger until you vomit - I will definitely give you a hard time."
"Then I'd like to see it first." Lambert obviously didn't believe it.
The journey continued. After descending the hillside, the group began to follow the slope to the river. Looking around, they saw fog all around, but Lambert's boat that originally docked here was missing.
Geralt wondered if it had rained recently and blew the boat away. Lambert thought about it and admitted that there had indeed been a rainy season recently.
Then the next step is to find the boat.
In the end, it was discovered that it was actually the Swamp Witch who towed the boat away and hid it. As soon as they saw it, Geralt and the three came to find them, and they immediately emerged from the mud and pounced on them.
"Bang!" A bullet hit the swamp witch directly in the chest and abdomen, causing her attack to stop abruptly.
"Bang!" Another bullet hit her brain directly, shattering it into dregs.
"Plop!" The swamp witch fell to the ground and died.
"I love this thing so much." Lambert touched the M500 in his hand lovingly and couldn't help but like it in his tone.
"In the future, people who need weapons will also choose to equip such a large-caliber pistol... but they will have to endure the severe pain in their wrists." Xie Yuan put away the pistol and explained to Lambert.
The death of the swamp witch triggered the arrival of a large number of water ghosts, but no one was using guns this time, because for demon hunters, water ghosts have always been the raw material for potions and a symbol of money bags.
After clearing the water ghosts, the three of them took out the boat, then moved to the water and boarded the boat. Lambert, the maker and owner of the boat, took the helm - this was his unavoidable initiative.
Geralt and Lambert made jokes along the way, while Xie Yuan listened quietly. After he restrained everyone's sense of existence, Geralt and Lambert even sometimes took the initiative to ignore You Xie on the way. Yuan is such a person.
Soon, everyone came to an important part of the trial road: Old Spearhead.
Old Spearhead - "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt"
Old Speartip is a famous Cyclops who lives in a cave north of Kaer Morhen. It was once part of the Alpine Trial of the Witcher Trials: would-be witchers were required to enter its cave and attempt to pass through it. Such an adventure is obviously very risky, as the old ballad goes: "Old spearhead who is sleeping soundly, if anyone wakes him up, he will sleep more soundly than he does."
Geralt is shocked that the monster is still alive, but Lambert seems to be worried about it.
Only two of the group of boys when Lambert accepted the trial escaped from the trial unscathed, and the unlucky Wodehe died in the hands of the old spearhead. This trip also had a profound impact on Lambert. It had such a huge impact that even after many years, Lambert is still worried about it today.
When entering the cave, I suddenly heard a cry of "Ah!!!".
Geralt immediately looked at Lambert, but the latter confirmed that it was an hallucination - there was no longer a witcher training here, and there was no way there would be any children here.
But Geralt insisted on taking a look, and as expected, the result was that it was an illusion magic cast by the mist demon, and the boy had already died in the distant past - after finally killing the mist demon, Geralt, as expected, Lambert laughed at him.
"Why don't we kill Old Spearhead today?"
Xie Yuan suddenly raised his hand and suggested: "Since this Cyclops has hurt so many children - taking him in will end this grudge."
"But we should..."
"now it's right!"
Before Geralt could finish his refutation, Lambert interrupted him directly: "There is no reason to keep this beast alive, and it should be done for Wardhe."
"Hmm..." Xie Yuan thought for a moment and took out another smart folding space melee weapon - the Fusion Blade. This was his favorite gun, second only to the one he captured from the assassin. Samurai sword.
The Fusion Blade consists of a plasma-heated metal core located in a miniature magnetic field, capable of destructive melee attacks and setting enemies on fire - not necessarily more lethal than force field weapons, but equally capable of cutting. .
"The silver sword causes at most magic damage," Xie Yuan activated the fusion blade, and the bright blue blade immediately reflected light, "but this knife can cut through most things in the world, and it can also ignite them."
Xie Yuan solemnly handed the Fusion Blade to Lambert: "Now you can make him suffer."
Finally, another reminder: "Don't touch the blade, you will be seriously burned."
Looking at the blade of the faint blue light, Lambert motioned for Geralt to stay: "Leave this fight to me!"
After saying that, he went straight into the cave entrance.
"You shouldn't be like this." Geralt looked at Xie Yuan with some dissatisfaction, "We should be like completing another trial, but you are completely ruined like this."
"However, if Lambert's shadow for so many years can be eliminated a little bit," Xie Yuan looked at the deep hole in front of him, "wouldn't it be better than a physical test?"
Geralt didn't answer again, either because he was convinced or because he didn't want to argue.
A thick roar came randomly from the entrance of the cave, which was the Cyclops Old Maotou waking up - but soon the angry roar turned into a hysterical wail, and finally stopped abruptly and became silent.
Just as Geralt stepped forward a little worried, Lambert appeared at the entrance of the cave: "Hurry up, why are you lingering?"
"Thank you for the sword. I'll give it back to you." As soon as Lambert came up, he handed the sword with the metal core closed to Xie Yuan. It seemed that he already knew the trick of opening and closing the sword, but at this time, shock and fear still appeared. On Lambert's face, "The power is simply terrifying. I think it would be better if there should be no more swords like this in the world."
Only after entering the cave did everyone know what happened.
There is only a pool of liquid material left on the ground, emitting blue light. This... looks like the object has been heated by plasma and restored to a plasma state... a huge pool, you can imagine the huge size of this guy - but it's a pity. Mortal body.
In addition to the mountain trial, the three of them then encountered a group of trolls who could throw stones. After approaching them, Geralt, who insisted on not killing intelligent creatures, finally persuaded the stinking Lambert to store the sword here, and then Go to the energy gathering platform empty-handed.
As for Xie Yuan? He was clean at the moment.
Lambert struggled to recall the sequence, and then asked Geralt and Xie Yuan to light the surrounding braziers. The heat would gradually activate the place and guide the magic power to fill the storage box placed in the center of the stage.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lambert also wanted Geralt to review the past: his alcoholic father came here reluctantly and narrowly escaped death and became a demon hunter - he never had a choice, but he didn't want this at all. destiny.
Unlike Geralt, who had long since gradually surrendered to his fate.
After completing the energy gathering, Geralt put away the box and went down the mountain with Lambert to get his sword back from the troll - interestingly, it was Lambert who took the initiative to speak this time and also imitated the giant sword. The devil looks very funny.
It seems that after talking to each other, Lambert's mood has calmed down a lot.
The three of them returned to the castle along the same route, and Geralt could finally proudly head to the tower to submit the results to Yennefer.
Lambert, Eskel and Vesemir are also busy with their own things: one is practicing swordsmanship, the other is dissecting a dead vampire, and Vesemir...well, he has been testing since they met until now. Uma’s feedback capabilities.
As for Xie Yuan, he himself has nothing to do now. He is using a universal tool to analyze a common rune of a demon hunter: Alder.
This is an active attack seal, a release type of telekinesis, used to repel, stun, knock down or even disarm opponents. Alder can even be used to destroy obstacles, such as crumbling walls and piles of barrels - Geralt did this just now when the three of them entered the mountain.
Why does Xie Yuan want to analyze Alder? The reason is that he feels that Alder's power can be concentrated on one point to hit the enemy - which is much more powerful than overturning the enemy.
Yes, to put it simply, Xie Yuanxiang created an Alder beam that fired concentrated power - or an Alder gun.
Judging from his current assumptions.
