Release that Witch

474. Chapter 474 Killing Machine

    Two days after the end of the enlarged meeting, Iron Axe received another command for a new weapon test.

    Since the northwest side is likely to be attacked by the Evil Beast at any time, the new shooting range is located on the opposite side of the Scarlet Water River. When the Iron Axe arrives, the prince’s personal guard has surrounded the hemp rope and red flag around the open space, and in the steel. A checkpoint is set at both ends of the bridge to prohibit unrelated personnel from passing.

    Obviously, His Royal Highness is very valued for this weapon test.

    Quickly walking in the depths of the snow, looking at the friendly eyes cast by the guards, Iron Axe could not help but think of the first time when he participated in the fire test. At that time, she was just a little-known foreigner Sandpeople. The people of Greycastle always showed suspicion and vigilance to him. Even if they lived in the small town for five years, they touched the surrounding hunter with the exquisite Archery. In the old district, no one would look at him more.

    He had thought that he would have been living in this barren land as a hunter. He was not dead in bed, or died under the claws of Evil Beast or prey. I didn’t expect His Royal Highness to look at himself as Sandpeople. I have seen the power of Skyfire and Thunder. The next change was so fast that he made a dilemma. From the formation of the Militia team to fight Evil Beast, to the Border Town First Army, he was hopped by the Hunter team Captain to become the First Army commander. What is even more surprising is that because of his attitude towards the witch, he also saw the heir of Brave Sand Clan again in the small town, Drow Silvermoon, to make up for his biggest regret in this life. Iron Axe has vowed on the bottom of heart for this trust and appreciation, as well as compensation for his own destiny, to dedicate everything to the new owner.

    Approaching the center of the test site, Iron Axe saw the portrait of His Royal Highness Roland. To his surprise, there were several Sleeping Island witch besides His Royal Highness and Chief Knight.

    “His Royal Highness, Iron Axe reports to you!”He went up two steps and marched toward the prince.

    The latter nodded. “Since everyone is here, we can start.”He sent two long shots to Iron Axe and Carter. “This is one of my newly developed weapons. I am still in the prototype stage of the model. I have a limited number. Let’s take a try.”

    Iron Axe took a closer look at the new gun in his hand – its shape is very similar to the revolving rifle, the only difference is in the loading position: the new gun does not have a nest.

    He groaned. Is this gun the same as the earliest rifle, which needs to be filled from the front end of the barrel?

    “It’s called bolt action rifle,” Well, the Highness quickly explained, “The bullet uses the latest smokeless double-base emission* drug, with a caliber of 8 mm, although less than 12 mm of revolving rifle, but the power is even more Big.”He turned the gun over. “The ammunition is inserted from the front of the trigger. Each bullet clip can be embedded with five rounds of bullets, but it can’t be fired continuously like revolving rifle, requiring manual shelling and loading.”

    According to the demo of His Royal Highness, Iron Axe quickly understood how the new rifle was operated, and fired a gun with a clip–the new gun had a lot of momentum, and every time he pulled the trigger, he could feel the butt pair. The impact of the shoulders, and the sound is much brighter than the revolver.

    After five shots, he noticed that there was almost no smoke in front of the muzzle. If it was replaced with an old-fashioned rifle, the smoke from the five rounds of bullets would be enough to cover the line of sight. This is probably the credit of the so-called “smoke-free ammunition”. However, the gun itself has nothing unique. Compared with the huge gap between the revolver and the flint gun, the new rifle does not say no progress. Iron Axe even thinks it still Not as good as revolver. The most obvious thing is that the rate of fire is slower.

    Compared to the former, which can be fired continuously after the target, the new gun is very inconvenient when standing shooting, the gun body still has to be re-aimed after the hand, although the process is much faster than the Longsong, but it takes a short time to suppress the enemy-for example, when cleaning up the Stronghold rebellion Noble, The new rifle is far less useful than revolver in a near-distance encounter on the street corner or in the house.

    After Iron Axe uttered his test experience, Carter expressed the same opinion.

    The prince nodded. “It is not as convenient as revolver, but the advantages are obvious. Andrea, let’s demonstrate,” he handed a rifle into the hands of the witch. “Remember to use the ability to shoot. ”

    “Uh huh,” the blonde witch took the gun and was skilled in loading and loading. She could see that she was not the first to contact the weapon. “Look at it!”

    With three thundering shots, Iron Axe was surprised to find that the three wooden targets placed at the farthest point fell in turn—the bullets not only hit the target with only the nail size, but also hit the target below the target. The pole.

    Be aware that they are at least four hundred meters away from the target!

    “His Royal Highness, this is…”Carter didn’t dare to set the channel.

    “Andrea’s branching ability allows her to hit the target accurately, whether the weapon is a bow or a gun,” The Prince laughs, “but it does not directly work on the crossbow or the bullet, but rather on the precise mastery of the weapon performance-in other words, if the stone is thrown by itself, Estimates can only hit 10 meters or so of the target, and cast out if only birds, it is likely to hit nothing. ”

    “what do you mean……Ordinary people can reach this level as long as they are trained. ”

    “Yes, this is the biggest advantage of the bolt action rifle. It doesn’t leak because of the gap between the nest and the barrel, which greatly increases the range and accuracy.”Roland nod. “When paired with the scope, even in the hands of ordinary soldiers, it can accurately kill enemies around 400-500 meters, and the revolver’s precise shooting distance is less than 100 meters.”

    Iron Axe suddenly understood the terrible thing about this weapon. Most people wouldn’t be wary of a sneak attack at this distance. If you hide in a dwelling or highland, you can easily take away the life of the important target. If it is Lady With Nightingale, almost no one can guard against bullets shot from the corner.

    “His Royal Highness, you have to give me a hand when it comes to mass production,” Andrea said.

    “Of course,” Roland took back the two rifles and went to the other side, uncovering a raised piece of cloth. “In fact, the bolt action rifle is just an appetizer before the test. This is the focus of today’s test.”

    When the weapon underneath the burlap reveals the true body, Iron Axe instantly likes it – compared to a rifle made of wooden handle and iron pipe, the new rifle is black and black, as if the whole body is made of metal, volume It is also much larger, plus the triangular bracket below, almost half a person high. The long barrel has half the thickness of the wrist. The shiny bullet is densely attached to a tape and connected to the Large receiver. Its shape and posture are completely different from the previous weapon.
