Loli Yinglong's Journey to Another World

Chapter 172 The Beginning of Technological Change

When Hu Tao heard Xiao Yuan's name, her face changed, and she smiled. She looked at Xiao Yuan and said curiously, "Hello, Sister Diana. I've always heard Annika mention you before. I heard that you are doing scientific research. Is that true?"

Walnut had always admired scientists before he came into this world.

After coming to this world, she originally thought that this world was a magical world and that no one would study technology. Later, after learning from Xu Yuan that Xiao Yuan was doing scientific research, she developed a little admiration for Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan greeted Hu Tao and said, "Hello, Hu Tao. It's true. I'm the director of the scientific research department. Would you like to see the latest research results of our scientific research department?"

Hearing this, Hu Tao was stunned for a moment, and asked excitedly: "Really, is it really possible?"

"Of course." After saying that, Xiao Yuan used his ability to make a weapon that looked like a pistol.

Walnut saw the gun and was full of questions. Wasn't she in the magical world? Could this thing really be useful?

Xu Yuan and Xu Yan were also a little surprised. They had paid attention to the Research Department before, mainly in the areas of life technology, but later they didn't pay much attention to it. After all, they felt relieved with Xiao Yuan there.

Now Xiao Yuan took out a military-tech pistol, which surprised them a little.

Now the Research Department is indeed focusing on military technology. The main reason is that Xiaoyuan doesn't want to take care of it. Although now she only needs to provide funds and materials, she feels that this still compresses the time she and Xu Yuan spend together.

So she planned to let go completely, let the Research Department focus on military technology, and let the prince see the value of the Research Department.

Previously, those life technologies were mainly for the convenience of the people and had little impact on the prince, nobles, and high-ranking officials, so they did not care about them and did not take the scientific research department seriously.

But now the research department focuses on military technology, which has produced remarkable results and attracted the attention of some bigwigs.

Recently, the staff of the Scientific Research Department made a rifle-like weapon based on the information provided by Xiaoyuan, which attracted the attention of the prince.

The staff of the weapons research department named it the Cloud Piercing Gun. It has extremely strong penetrating power and a range of ten kilometers. It can even break the defensive shield of a special tenth-level magician within a range of one kilometer.

The magazine of the Cloud Piercing Gun is an energy bar condensed by a special method. The energy bar can be replenished by replacing it or injecting magic power into it. The maximum capacity is the magic power of the tenth level of the special grade.

A full-magic energy bar can probably fire more than a hundred times.

The method of using the Cloud Piercing Gun is also very simple. You just need to pull the trigger and no extra magic power is required.

The most important thing that the Prince will pay attention to in the scientific research department is that the Cloud Piercing Gun can be mass-produced.

This is very important. The most common ones in the army are special grade, but not everyone has the strength of the tenth level of special grade. However, if everyone has the Cloud Piercing Gun, the gap between them can be almost ignored.

It can enhance the overall strength of the kingdom's army, and can also appropriately lower the requirements for conscription, making the kingdom's army larger.

The emperors and princes of kingdoms throughout the ages all had one ideal, which was to unify the human race.

Because of this, the Research Department finally got the attention of the prince and obtained more funds, materials and talents, and no longer needed Xiaoyuan to provide funds and materials.

Now Xiaoyuan is just holding the title of Minister of Scientific Research Department.

Xiaoyuan doesn’t care about how the scientific research department will develop in the future. Anyway, she has done what she should do.

The pistol that Xiaoyuan is making now has no name.

As for why she wanted to do this, it was because she felt that Hu Tao was too weak. After all, she was Xu Yuan's friend. Although Luo Cheng was safe, it would be bad if something unexpected happened and she died. So she planned to give this pistol to Hu Tao for self-defense.

The power of this pistol can shatter the shield of a king-level second-order magician. It will produce a small-scale explosion when hitting an object. Its usage is the same as the Cloud Piercing Gun.

There is also a shield function and a magic detection function. The shield function can be triggered by just clicking the button on the side of the gun handle.

The magic detection function will automatically activate the shield when high-energy magic reactions are detected in the surroundings.

Hu Tao does have some talent for magic, but she just doesn't practice seriously, which results in her magic level being only at the elementary fourth level. Xue Li is helpless about this.

Xiao Yuan introduced the use of the gun to the three people. Hu Tao was shocked after hearing it, she could not believe that a pistol could have such great power.

"This gun hasn't been tested yet. Do you want to see the power of this gun?" Xiao Yuan looked at the three kids and asked.

Xu Yuan and Xu Yan could feel the magic of the pistol, but they were still curious about its power. After all, it was the first time they had seen it, so they nodded.

Walnut naturally wanted to see it too, but this was her home, so she asked, "Sister Diana, may I ask where we can test the power?"

"Outside the city." Xiao Yuan replied.

"That's good. I want to see it too." Hu Tao nodded and said happily.

Since the Hall of Rebirth was some distance away from the city gate, Xu Yan used his spatial authority to move them out of the city.

Hu Tao was not surprised when she experienced teleportation again. After all, she had experienced it once before from Xue Li. However, when she saw that everyone around her knew this trick, she thought that all king-level magicians traveled in this way.

After arriving outside the city, Xiao Yuan picked up a pistol and fired a shot at the ground not far away.

The red light bullet was fired and exploded upon contacting the ground, creating a large pit twenty meters deep and thirty meters in radius.

Walnut saw the power, swallowed, and asked doubtfully: "Is this really a small-scale explosion?"

"This range is already very small." Xiao Yuan said, looking at the deep pit.

After saying that, Xiao Yuan waved his hand and the pit returned to its original state.

"It's indeed very small, but it's quite powerful." Xu Yuan commented.

"The range is indeed small." Xu Yan agreed.

After hearing what the three said, Hu Tao felt that she was from a different world from them.

Xiao Yuan looked at Hu Tao and said, "Hu Tao, take it. Next, let's test its defense capabilities."

After that, Xiao Yuan threw the pistol to Hu Tao. With Xue Li's help, Hu Tao was able to catch the pistol. Then, she looked at Xiao Yuan and asked in confusion, "Sister Diana, why did you give me the gun?"

"You are the weakest person here, so using you as a test subject can better prove the defensive capabilities of this gun. So next I will attack you, and you use the shield of the pistol to block my attack." Xiao Yuan replied.

Hearing this, Hu Tao became a little nervous and said, "Then I won't..."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Xiao Yan and I will be watching over you." Xu Yuan looked at Hu Tao and gave a reassuring smile.

Seeing Xu Yuan's smile, Hu Tao felt much calmer. She opened her shield and said through gritted teeth, "Come on, then."

A white shield appeared on Walnut's body. Seeing this, Xiao Yuan first tested it with super-powerful magic, and then slowly increased the power. Until the power reached the fourth level of the king level, the shield finally couldn't bear it and shattered.

With Xu Yuan and Xu Yan around, Hu Tao was not hurt.
