How powerful is gunpowder?

I haven't seen it with my own eyes, at least, not on Earth, firecrackers don't count.

This time, in the city of Dasai, I finally had the privilege of seeing the power of gunpowder.

That's really a ...... Very terrible power.

Just a dozen round balls the size of tennis balls, in an instant, can blast the ground out of an oval crater with a radius of three meters and a depth of more than one meter!

I was stunned as I heard a scorn from the goblin assist team members, and when I turned my head to look at them, their eyes were filled with disappointment and anger.

"My friend, can you tell me why you're displeased?" The city lord said sincerely.

The members of the Goblin Assist Team didn't speak, but looked at me in unison.

I shrugged my shoulders and made a 'please' gesture.

The team leader said, "Dear City Lord, the reason why we are displeased is not because of your hospitality, but because your students' performance has disappointed us very much!" ”

"My student?" The city lord glanced at the martial arts arena and said, "I think their performance is very good, and the power of the explosives is very great, even far beyond my imagination." ”

"No, it's not enough," the team leader said seriously: "It's not enough!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at me again, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Uh...... "To tell the truth, I'm confused, you can do whatever you want, for Mao always wants to see me?" Flowers on my face? Or do I look like a flower?

In desperation, I had no choice but to spread my hands and make a 'please' gesture again.

The team leader let out a low cry of excitement, then raised his arms, and all the goblin assistance team members got up from their seats, lined up in two teams, and drove with him into the exercise grounds.

The city lord smiled slightly and said to me, "An Xiaoyi, you have a lot of prestige among the goblins. ”

I scratched my head and said in distress, "It's okay, that's it anyway." ”

"I've never seen goblins have such respect for the Terrans, and you're the first," the lord praised.

I laughed dryly twice, but didn't answer.

"Can you tell me the story between you and the goblins when you have time?" The city lord said, "I'm interested. ”

"This ......," I paused, "and excuse me, because that story is really, really boring, and it will involve some personal aspects...... Uh, what, you know, it's a ** kind of thing. ”

"Hehe, I see," he smiled, not angry, not disguised, just a very peaceful smile.

The lord of Dasai City has a big heart, if his smile is the same as his heart.

......

......

This was the first time I had seen goblins design gunpowder with their own hands, and they were so skilled that it took less than a fifth of the time for the orcs to complete all the steps.

Aligning the spherical metal containers, they pulled out the lead and hid in bunker.

After a bell rang, a huge explosion resounded throughout the martial arts arena.

The smoke dissipated, and a huge crater four or five meters deep with a radius of seven or eight meters appeared.

The same material, the same capacity of the container, there is an explosion of different power, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it is unbelievable.

The team leader inspected the pit, nodded with satisfaction, and walked back to the audience with the rearranged line in two columns.

They first saluted me, and then said to the city lord, "Lord of the city, please take a look." ”

The city lord stood up and nodded slightly at the team leader: "My respected friends, you are right, compared to your skills, my students are indeed not worth mentioning. ”

His words made the orc students present very discouraged, and they all hung their heads.

"But," he continued, "I believe in my students' ability to learn, and I am confident that they will progress in your direction." ”

With two words, the hope of the orc students was ignited, and their eyes were full of light again, like torches that had been lit again.

"I hope it's as you say," the goblin leader lowered his head and said, "After all, they are also my students, and they have not reached our level, and to a certain extent, we have been derelict in our duties. ”

"Please don't blame yourself," said the city lord's wife, "My husband and I have seen your efforts and the results that have surprised us, and we are very satisfied, thank you, thank you." ”

The two teams thanked each other endlessly, and I was a little tired of listening to it, and finally, the city lord said: "Tonight, I will put on a celebration banquet to thank you for your hard work in the past few days, and the hard work of my students. ”

The lord of the city said it to them, but his eyes looked at me.

To be honest, I'm resistant to this kind of boring banquet, especially now that I'm eager to return to Moonlight City and reunite with my family.

Moreover, the time set by me and Yang Jiao is one week, and the longer it drags on, the more compensation Yang Jiao will give them.

That's all money!

I feel distressed!

......

......

That was true, but in fact, I still couldn't refuse the Lord's invitation, especially after I got home and told me about it, and Phoenix and Cagalli suggested that I go to the feast.

Although they said that neither of them would go with me, but planned to lie down and chat at home.

I really can't understand the girls' minds, what's so fun about chatting, is it really more fun to be entertained?

In particular, the banquet was held in the royal palace, and there must have been a lot of delicacies, and it was served unlimitedly.

Thinking of this, my foodie psychology began to swell.

Sure enough, the moment I entered the banquet hall, a dazzling variety of delicacies abounded.

However, we are not allowed to move our chopsticks until the lord of the castle has finished his opening speech.

So, I had to hold the plate, hold the fork, and swallow while staring at the food around me.

I didn't even eat dinner for this meal, and my stomach was already rumbling.

I thought that the speech of the city lord of Dasai City would not be very long, but the reality directly shattered my illusion - the opening speech was not only long, it was no different from making a report at a meeting!

For a moment, I turned my head to look at the steak and chicken thighs on the table, and my eyes lit up.

When the opening speech was finally over and the banquet had finally begun, I threw myself straight to a table of barbecue and bacon, and ate my heart's content.

Obviously, I behaved in a manner that was no different from the courtesy of others, and soon I was the center of attention.

But fortunately, I have a thick skin, thicker than the city wall, so I can continue to eat delicious barbecue and bacon in peace.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the city lord to come to my side and talk to me with a smile on his face.

That kind smile, that friendly face......

How do I look and feel hideous—you're here to stop me from eating!
