Zola slowly raised her head, her eyes lingering slightly between Liya's face and the pistol in her hand.
The gun barrel seems to be made of a special material, with strange and delicate red lines engraved on it, like blood veins.
On the handle, a deep black rose is engraved on the frosted textured handle, revealing a hint of mystery and nobility.
Her thoughts went blank for a moment, and her eyes were filled with incredible light.
What on earth is this little gadget? Is it magic?
She didn't even see clearly just now. In just a moment, the wall collapsed by her.
Feeling the slight recoil from her arm, Zola still seemed to be in a dream until now.
Victor's fiancée just said this thing is called, "gun"?
She really didn't see why this thing was called a gun.
At this moment, Liya pointed to the gadget in her hand and explained with a gentle smile on her face.
"The thing in your hand, from my understanding, should be called the magic engine assembly push launcher."
Simply put, black pellets are loaded into this launcher, called a pistol.
And the stored natural magic power is used as kinetic energy to push and launch it.
The force generated is enough to blow down a wall.
“This is the first generation product our family has produced.”
This was after the firearm was obtained from the Reiser family. After a series of assembly improvements.
Eventually, it became a generational product of the Cravenna family.
First generation?
Hearing Liya's words, Zola's body couldn't help but tremble.
She immediately realized the value of it.
Because she noticed what Liya said.
It is not a separate magic prop or a weapon that is difficult to make.
This is a "product".
As long as it is a product, it is possible to have mass production capabilities.
And the power of this small weapon is obvious to all.
And very suitable for the Chamber of Commerce.
Let’s not talk about anything else for the moment. In fact, there are many big figures in the Cassidla Chamber of Commerce, and they are all ordinary people.
Perhaps it is because their talent for making money conflicts with their own talent for fighting.
Or maybe it was God’s curse when he left in the first place.
All in all, many wealthy people in the Cassidla Chamber of Commerce have no power themselves.
Therefore, these rich people need to spend more money to hire some strong people to serve as their guards to ensure their personal safety.
In fact, this is the original intention of the Chamber of Commerce.
Why should Victor join the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce?
For now, the power Victor has shown is definitely that of a world-class mage.
If such a mage joins the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce, even in name only, it will frighten the enemies of the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce.
And the Cassidla Chamber of Commerce has never forgotten it from beginning to end.
God's threat back then made everyone feel that this was not just a simple joke.
If you want to fight against the gods, you must have strength.
And the person who has the best chance to fight against the gods right now.
They can only place their hopes on Victor.
Meanwhile, Zola came to her senses.
As Liya said, the transaction is essentially a reciprocity for both parties.
If you want Victor, or even the entire Cravenna family, to join the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce must also provide corresponding rewards.
Likewise, what is the value of the Cravenna family and what can they bring to the Chamber of Commerce?
Obviously, it was the weapon called "pistol" in her hand.
A small self-defense weapon.
It's simple to use, but not so powerful.
And when caught off guard, no one will defend this weapon.
perfectly worked.
This is a unique bargaining chip in the hands of the Cravenna family.
However, when Leah revealed this bargaining chip, the Chamber of Commerce almost had to consider including the Cravenna family.
Therefore, they may have to pay more than originally expected.
Zola narrowed her eyes slightly and asked curiously and tentatively:
"Miss Liya, can this weapon really meet the standards of mass production?"
Liya smiled softly, crossed her legs, put one hand gently in front of her belly, and held the tea cup elegantly with the other hand, and took a slow sip.
When Zola raised this issue, it meant that her negotiations with the Chamber of Commerce had gradually developed in a favorable direction.
"Miss Zola, although we also want to tell you that this weapon can be mass-produced, but..."
She smiled pretending to be helpless.
"Because of materials and engineers, we don't have enough production capacity."
"Every day, we can only make dozens of them."
A few dozen is already a lot.
However, if this weapon is really going to be sold as a commodity...
Liya seemed to see through Zola's thoughts and said lightly:
"I'm sorry, Miss Zola. I understand your thoughts."
"But even if we can produce it in large quantities, we don't plan to sell it outside."
Zola was stunned for a moment, but before her mind could begin to think about the pros and cons, Liya continued:
"You have to know that the one in our family is a member of the Mages Council."
The Council of Mages has always been known for its extremely high level of justice and morality.
Don’t forget, even the goddess of justice has appeared in the capital of mages.
Zola thought for a moment and understood a little, but she didn't fully understand what Liya meant.
So, Liya gave her a simple explanation:
"Once this weapon is publicly available, it will be available to everyone, regardless of class, regardless of intent."
"The lords have weapons and their rule will be more stable, but it is based on violence."
Indeed, anyone who disobeys will be shot.
Bullets are much cheaper than hiring guards.
"And once the enemy has weapons, they will only think about which enemy to attack first the next day."
For civilians without strength, this weapon is extremely deadly.
The weapon has no eyes, not to mention that this kind of gun only needs to pull the trigger. It can kill a person from a very long distance.
"If everyone has a gun, the outcome will only be more chaotic."
Just because everyone has weapons doesn't mean everyone doesn't have weapons.
Ordinary people with no supernatural powers are given weapons that could kill extraordinary people.
What will they do?
It is impossible to predict the human nature, just like a dog without a leash.
You say it doesn't bite, does it really mean it doesn't bite?
Therefore, dogs with leashes and mouths tied are often the safest.
For the same reason, such weapons must not appear in the hands of commoners and lords.
Simply put, it should never be sold openly.
"We don't want to plunge a village or a city into chaos because of our weapons."
"There are many people in the world who are greedy for money, but we will not do such things for money."
After finishing speaking, Liya gently placed the teacup on the mahogany coffee table.
Seeing that his mind was blank and unable to say a word, Zola smiled slightly.
"I hope you understand, but if we do join the Chamber of Commerce, these weapons may appear among the top brass of the Chamber of Commerce."
"As a little gift to protect yourself, I think this is perfect."
Zola came back to her senses and finally understood what Liya meant.
They will not sell this kind of weapon, but they are willing to give it to big shots who need self-protection for free.
But, will this weapon really be free?
Don't forget, this kind of weapon is only owned by the Cravenner family.
And Liya just said that this is only the first generation product.
In the future, there will be second and third generations.
Those big shots, even if they don't need Victor's protection.
After experiencing the sense of security brought by this weapon, they will inevitably move closer to the Cravenna family and develop friendly relations with them.
As long as no one else can develop such a weapon.
The Cravenas completed their monopoly.
And maybe others have already developed the second and third generations.
What she sees so far is only what Liya wants her to see.
Speaking of which, in fact, it is no longer up to her, Zola, to decide whether the Cravenna family can join the Chamber of Commerce.
She lowered her head and looked at the exquisite and small but powerful pistol in her hand.
As long as this small pistol appears in the homes of those big shots that night.
Early the next morning, they all had to beg Cravenna to join the Cassidra Chamber of Commerce.
Zola was completely caught.
She couldn't imagine that the woman in front of her, who looked almost the same age as her, would crush her in just a few words.
It even made her heart beat violently.
Zola endured the emotions in her heart, her palms trembling.
Fearing that the pistol would suddenly go off, he placed it on the table.
Then he raised his head and said to Liya solemnly.
"Miss Liya, I need to ask my father, President Nanade, about this matter."
"I think I need to stay in the empire for a few days first, and we should discuss the future matters in detail."
At this point, she planned to leave.
Because her current rank is too high, she has been led by Liya.
She was completely out of control on her own.
If she continued like this, she was afraid that she would give the entire Chamber of Commerce to Cravenna.
But Liya didn't want to let her go. She covered her mouth and smiled softly, and said with the smile in her eyes:
"In that case, why not go to Brighton to stay for a few days?"
"You know, that is our Cravenna territory, and it is also the only territory with foreign surnames allowed in the entire empire."
"My original intention was to have a detailed discussion with you in Brighton, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly. It just so happens that we also need to go back to Brighton, so we can go together."
Zola thought, after all, Brayston is so far away from the royal capital, so she just thought of saying no and visiting again in a few days.
As a result, Liya suddenly shouted upstairs.
"Victor!"
Zola's heart trembled violently.
This unceremonious tone was just like when she was at home.
Her mother had exactly the same attitude when giving orders to her powerful father!
This is definitely a tone that can only be achieved between intimate partners.
No wonder, after all, Victor is even willing to let the woman in front of him manage everything in the house. They must be very loving between them!
Thinking of this, she looked expectantly at the stairs upstairs.
Until the moment the familiar black windbreaker appeared, Zola was suddenly stunned.
The stern man was holding a sleeping girl.
The girl looked young, with a small figure. She had her head resting on Victor's shoulder, and her face couldn't be seen clearly.
It just feels like the ears are pointed and long, but they look just like humans.
But at that moment, perhaps the suppression caused by being led by Liya reached its limit.
Her brain was completely shut down, and she said without thinking:
"Are all your children already this old!?"
Liya: "?"
