#60 - Dark Flame

Researching firearms was the result of careful consideration by Quan Yi.

Although he hadn't revealed his true purpose to anyone yet, Quan Yi had indeed chosen to establish this research institute to manufacture firearms.

The Quan family was a Soul Master family with less than a century of development.

Before the Black Iron Gauntlets came into being, the Quan family was just an ordinary family living in Quan Family Village.

However, the appearance of Quan Yi's grandfather, Quan Li, changed this situation.

After graduating from the Advanced Soul Master Academy, Quan Li did not accept the title of nobility, but instead returned to Quan Family Village and led the entire village to develop together.

Because the White Gloves lacked attack power and Soul Power, this talent could not be used in battle.

However, this talent showed unique advantages in making high-quality handicrafts. Whether it was textiles or weaving, as long as the goods were made by hand, the Quan family's products possessed extremely high quality.

Under the protection of powerful force, the advantages of the White Gloves were brought into play, and the entire family also found its own path of development.

After the development of Quan Li and Quan Yue for two generations, the family was also growing stronger.

However, this growth was more reflected in financial resources.

In terms of force, although the Quan family was a Soul Master family, there were only five Soul Masters in the family, including Quan Yi.

Quan Yi, Quan Yi's parents, and Quan Yi's grandparents.

Although there were few, each person's strength and talent belonged to the upper class on the continent.

But from the perspective of the family as a whole, the current Quan family was actually still in its initial stage, and could not compare with the top families and forces on the continent.

As the next head of the family, Quan Yi would inherit the family in the future, and it was Quan Yi's duty to seek development for the family.

Without relying on powerful forces, if Quan Yi wanted to lead a group of clansmen to continue to develop, he had to integrate all available forces.

Establishing a research institute was an attempt. The role of blacksmiths was limited in this world, but Quan Yi was confident that he could give full play to their true abilities.

Although they could only manufacture "empty shell" firearms now, this was only the first step.

Through this attempt, Quan Yi clearly felt the possibility.

Now that the research institute was still in its initial stage, Quan Yi had high hopes for this research institute.

Today was the first step towards the future.

At this moment, Quan Yi's heart was full of anticipation for the future.

Quan Yi picked up his beloved gun and carefully examined it again.

The dark color and coldness brought Quan Yi a sense of intimacy and security.

Moreover, this time, in order to create a perfect work, Quan Yi specially spent a lot of money to purchase precious metals.

Under the excellent materials and superb skills, this terrifying weapon in his hand was finally born.

The overall hardness far exceeded the previous simple iron bucket. Although it had not been tested yet, theoretically it could withstand hundreds of explosions.

"Are there any trial stones here?" Quan Yi couldn't wait any longer.

"Yes, outside the forging room." Yuan Xing led Quan Yi out of the forging room. Several half-person-high stone piers stood in the middle of the backyard.

The stone piers were covered with scars, all of which were traces of weapon hacking.

"Weren't you curious about what this weapon is used for before? I'll show you its effect now."

Quan Yi walked forward and stopped ten meters away from the stone pier.

Yuan Xing and his son Yuan Fei also curiously widened their eyes, wanting to see how Quan Yi would use the uniquely shaped "iron rod" in his hand.

"Blazing Sun Gauntlets."

Quan Yi took out an iron ball, engraved it with the Rhino Seal, put it into the empty magazine, and then loaded it, aimed, and completed the action in one go.

"Be careful of the fragments." Quan Yi finally reminded the two people behind him.

The Yuan family and his son were also frightened by Quan Yi's battle, nervously swallowed their saliva, and then obediently took a few steps back.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a loud noise was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, frightening the two of them to close their eyes involuntarily.

However, the explosion came and went quickly. When the two of them recovered from the shock and reopened their eyes, the scene in front of them made them feel terrified.

They saw that the stone pier in front of Quan Yi was covered with dense fragments, and the fragments even extended to other stone piers around, and even to the ground.

Although they didn't know what the principle was, it must be that Quan Yi used his Martial Soul to do something, otherwise, the "iron rod" alone would not be able to produce such lethality.

After Quan Yi tried a shot, he was very satisfied with this gun, especially the part of the gunstock perfectly fit the body, which played the role of dispersing the recoil.

Moreover, the most important part of the barrel remained motionless during this explosion. With such quality, in the end, as long as he collected the most important fragment, Quan Yi's dream would definitely be realized.

"Blacksmith Yuan, I am very satisfied with this weapon. I will arrange for Uncle Ying to reward you two later." Quan Yi, who was overjoyed, lavishly rewarded the two.

This was talent, and they had made such a contribution, so of course they had to be greatly rewarded.

"Thank you, Young Master." The Yuan family and his son were overjoyed. After joining the Quan family, they not only received huge funds for selling their shops, but also received a fixed salary every month.

They didn't expect that in less than a week, they would receive an extra bonus.

Moreover, they could use free high-level materials to exercise their skills. At this moment, the two people's loyalty to Quan Yi reached its peak.

"In the next few months, I may not be able to appear in the forging room. I would like to ask you to continue to build this weapon."

"Yes, Young Master."

A week later, Blazer Forest, the final destination of Quan Yi's trip.

Outside Blazer Forest, there was a small village. Most of the villagers lived by hunting Soul Beasts, and most of them gathered here from other places, so

At night, the accommodation in the village.

"Xiao Yi, I missed you so much."

Hearing the news of Quan Yi's arrival, Su Ling'er rushed out of the room eagerly.

Quan Yi, who had just gotten off the carriage, was hugged by Su Ling'er with tears in her eyes.

After a long separation, the warm embrace, Quan Yi's longing for his family was finally released at this moment.

Quan Yue, who was standing behind Su Ling'er, also had red eyes, but he was not as direct as Su Ling'er, and could only quietly watch Quan Yi.

"Mother, Father, long time no see, I miss you too."

Su Ling'er, who was hugging Quan Yi, could clearly feel the changes in Quan Yi's body at this moment.

Physical fitness, height, the aura revealed on his body, and Soul Power fluctuations, far exceeded those of a year ago.

Although Quan Yi's growth made Su Ling'er feel gratified, at the same time, she also felt distressed. She could imagine what kind of life Quan Yi had experienced this year.

"It's getting late today, and everyone is tired from the journey. Let's have a good rest tonight, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow."

Quan Yue considered that Quan Yi and his party had been on the road all day, so he immediately arranged for everyone to rest.

After all, there were more important things waiting for them tomorrow.

The next day.

Inside Blazer Forest, Quan Yi, Quan Yue, and Su Ling'er, lightly armed, were rushing through the forest.

Quan Yue had investigated the situation inside the forest in advance, and the goal of this trip was very clear, so there was no need to carefully investigate.

An hour later, Quan Yi discovered the target of this trip from a distance.

Ears as big as fans, limbs as thick as cylinders, a long nose and white tusks, but the overall skin was dark red.

The four immediately stopped moving, hid in the dark, and secretly observed this huge target.

Dark Flame Elephant, fire attribute, power-type Soul Beast, estimated to be at least nine hundred years old.

Perfect.

The moment Quan Yi saw the Dark Flame Elephant, he determined that his second Soul Ring was it.
