Chapter 4 The Magic Stone
1164 Words
"Ha, hit! Sheriff, you've got great marksmanship!"
It was Cai Zheng who fired. 600 meters was far too easy for a 98k.
One shot killed the bandit. Cai Zheng reloaded and aimed again.
"Bang!"
Another shot rang out. Another robber was killed!
"You guys get ready too. We're about to enter your range."
"Yes, sir!"
"Use your sabers when you get close!"
"Understood!"
As the horses moved quickly, they entered the M1987's range, and the officers opened fire.
The M1987 had a significant advantage: it could be c****d with one hand, allowing for rapid firing even on horseback.
Moreover, it was a rifled gun, with a range and power far exceeding the long guns and left-handed rifles used by the Bald Eagle Gang!
Of course, it also had a very obvious drawback.
Because this type of gun uses a cylindrical loading system, bullets are prone to deformation and jamming if left inside for too long.
Fortunately, the bullets produced by the arms industry are of very high quality, so this problem is much less of a concern.
Cai Zheng's sudden attack caught the bandits off guard. With a burst of gunfire, one bandit after another fell into the pool.
The power of a rifled gun is considerable; the cavitation created by its bullets almost always results in an instant kill!
"Quick, counterattack!"
"Hurry!
There are only five of them, take them out!"
The bandits, realizing what was happening, hastily returned fire, but the range of their left-handed rifles was only twenty or thirty meters, while the M1987's range was 150 meters!
Therefore, the bandits could only take the hits.
By the time they were within range, the police officers had already drawn their sabers; a distance of thirty meters, covered in an instant by fast horses!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
"Thud!"
A violent impact, the silver blade gleaming coldly beneath, the dazzling edge instantly slicing through the bandits' bodies. In a single charge, over a dozen bandits fell to the ground!
"Damn it, they're too fast! We can't hit them!"
"Run! Run!"
Just five men had routed this group of robbers, who fled in panic, terrified.
But no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't outrun a horse, and were quickly all killed, while the Dilis police officers only suffered minor injuries.
This was the power of cavalry.
Even with firearms, cavalry remained a formidable force, unless you had overwhelming firepower to counter them.
Clearly, they didn't!
"I am the sheriff of Dilis town, you are saved!"
Cai Zheng stopped his horse and walked up to the group of merchants, flashing his police badge.
"Thank you, thank you so much!"
"Great, we're saved!"
"Thank you, thank you!"
The rescued merchants were all moved to tears.
They had given up hope, but Cai Zheng had given them a glimmer of hope.
"Where are you going?"
Cai Zheng asked.
"We were on our way to the town of Dilis, but our luck ran out, and we ran into those damned bandits, the Bald Eagle Gang!"
The caravan leader said, "Ugh, their firepower is too strong. We don't have as many men or guns as them, and our guards have all been killed!"
"Don't worry, it's alright.
I'll protect you from now on. Our reinforcements will be here soon!"
After they were safe, the caravan members began treating the wounded and burying them.
Meanwhile, the police officers were searching through the bandits' graves for loot!
"Sheriff, come quick! I found something good!"
Suddenly, one of the officers searching through the graves said.
"What did you find?"
Cai Zheng walked over!
"Quick, look!"
The officer led Cai Zheng to a spot and pulled out a golden stone!
"This, what's this?"
Cai Zheng had never seen gold before and thought it was real gold!
"A magic stone! A magic stone that can be used to forge magic-powered guns!"
The officer exclaimed excitedly.
"A magic stone!"
Cai Zheng suddenly remembered.
The weaponry system had mentioned that there was a very powerful gun in this world called a magic-powered gun, possessing various special abilities.
And magic-powered guns were made from magic stones.
However, magic stones were extremely rare, therefore magic-powered guns were also extremely rare!
He hadn't expected to be so lucky; there was actually a magic stone here!
"Chief, this magic stone is for you!"
The officer handed the magic stone to Cai Zheng without hesitation and then turned to leave.
"Hey, this guy!"
Cai Zheng suddenly felt that this officer had a lot of awareness.
Hmm, worth training!
Under police escort, the caravan safely arrived in the town of Dilis.
Having witnessed the power of the new firearms, the caravan specifically purchased 20 M1987 rifles and 500 rounds of ammunition from Cai Zheng.
As for the hand grenades, due to limited materials, Cai Zheng did not sell them, intending to use them as weapons!
However, selling these weapons still made Cai Zheng a profit!
Having resolved the caravan's matter, Cai Zheng began to think about how to process the magic stone.
He planned to use the magic stone to forge a gun; judging by its size, it could only be used to forge a pistol.
Unfortunately, Cai Zheng had not yet unlocked the blueprints for pistols.
So, in the end, he could only make a left-handed gun himself!
Because the construction of a left-handed gun is very simple.
“Hey system, if I have the blueprints, can you make the gun?”
Cai Zheng asked, opening the weaponry system.
“As long as you have the blueprints, I can make it!”
The system said confidently.
"Alright, let's begin!"
Cai Zheng took out the golden magic stone and blueprints, which the system then automatically absorbed simultaneously.
"Ding!
Completed. Please name it!"
In less than five minutes, Cai Zheng's self-made left-handed gun was finished.
"Wow, so fast!"
"Of course, this system is very efficient.
And it's a left-handed gun with such a low-level structure!"
The weaponry system said disdainfully.
Cai Zheng picked up his self-made left-handed gun, which he had modeled after the Colt Cobra King.
However, the barrel was longer than the original Cobra King.
"Hmm, I'm very satisfied!
By the way, produce some more bullets of the corresponding caliber."
Cai Zheng picked up the pistol, very satisfied.
"Okay, the caliber of this gun is the same as your M1911, and the bullets are interchangeable!"
"Hmm, let's call this gun 'Golden Flash'!"
Cai Zheng said.
"Ding!
Naming complete. All attributes of the weapon are as follows!
Furthermore, a damage index has been created by comparing it with magic-powered guns in this world!"
Golden Flash Type: Left-handed pistol Loading method: 7-round cylinder Range: 100m-600m Special feature: Chargeable Ore type: Attack type, Attribute Damage index: Six stars (maximum ten stars)
Description: Golden magic stone, containing a high concentration of attribute magic power.
It can increase the muzzle velocity based on the user's magic power, thereby increasing range and power.
"Wow, that's powerful.
This, this range is practically a sniper rifle among pistols!"
