Chapter 215 Ammunition depot, Muggle wand
·
Jing Shen Tian Si
Compared with last year, Aaron's summer vacation this year is much easier.
The teacher is no longer so strict, and the time is looser, and I can even spare two or three hours a day to go around Diagon Alley.
It took him six days to get used to the new tutoring life, until Jins brought him to the armory on the seventh day.
"I'm ready." Aaron warmed up confidently, "What is today's after-dinner exercise? Earthquake, tsunami, volcanic eruption or high-altitude free fall?"
"None." Jins shook his head lightly, and took out the gray key engraved with the number three. "It's enough to experience the second stage once or twice. If you really get used to it, it may not be a good thing."
Aaron raised his eyebrows, looking thoughtfully at the third key in Jins' hand, "So I'm entering the third stage?"
"of course."
Jins inserted the key into the lock in the wall.
With a click, the entire secret room underwent earth-shaking changes.
The first is that the space has expanded more than ten times, the second is that the ceiling has turned into blue sky and white clouds, the ground has also become a lawn, and the most important thing is that all the weapons on the shelf have been changed.
Bows, hammers, armors, swords, and spears all disappeared, replaced by a variety of hot weapons, pistols, rifles, sniper rifles, grenades, bazookas, and so on.
Gollum!
Aaron swallowed, staring blankly at these modern hot weapons, speechless in astonishment.
This arsenal is definitely worthy of its name, but their wizarding family that has been passed down for thousands of years has learned this... can it be used?
"I believe the young master has a certain understanding of these weapons, but understanding is just understanding. Whether you can use it or not is another matter."
"Um... I understand the truth, but this, this... does it make sense?"
"Of course it makes sense." Jinnes said patiently, "These weapons are Muggle wands, although they have a single function, they are enough to take the life of a wizard.
Based on this alone, you must learn to use them, young master. "
Aaron curled his lips. In his opinion, there was not much difference between sword practice and gun practice.
He picked up a revolver from the rack, flipped it open, and it was loaded with six rounds.
"It's quite new!"
"This is a newly replenished product last year." Jinns said with some pride, "a batch specially customized by Gaius Industry."
boom!
Aaron accidentally pulled the trigger, "Don't tell me that Gaius also produces munitions."
"A company established almost in the last century can be regarded as an old-fashioned arms dealer.
However, the purpose of your great-grandfather's development of the military industry was just not to let the Gaius family fall behind the times, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and he ranked among the top [-] in the world. "
The corner of Aaron's mouth twitched violently. He knew that the Gaius family had a lot of property, but he never expected to do this kind of business, and it looked like it was flourishing.
"My great-grandfather is really treacherous, bah, old schemer, it's not right, he is really far-sighted!" Aaron sighed, "His decision at the beginning gave us three generations of grandparents and grandchildren extra training in the third stage."
"To be precise, it was two generations of father and son. At that time, the old patriarch was already an adult, and his fate with these guns and ammunition was not too great.
In fact, the young master still took advantage of it, at least your training conditions are much better than that of the master. "
"But I don't think so." Aaron gave Jins a hard look, "At least I have to learn more than Vico, and it's also more difficult."
"You don't need to be so serious." Jinns teased, "Master, you are a wizard after all, you just need to know how to use these weapons, and you don't need to be as proficient as a professional soldier."
"Huh? I can barely accept this, but can you tell me why you lowered your requirements?"
"Because the Muggle world is developing rapidly, and weapons are being updated very quickly.
And young master, you are a wizard, and magic is the path you are destined to take. There is no need to strive for excellence in Muggle weapons.
They are eliminated very quickly, and there will be no qualitative breakthrough in a short period of time. It is enough to understand the specific operation. "
"I see." Aaron nodded thoughtfully, expressing his understanding.
Jins took out his wand, waved it with one hand, and a row of targets appeared on the grass in front of him.
"They are ten meters, 20 meters, and 50 meters. After that, there will be a new target every 100 meters. The range of various guns is inside. If you get tired of playing, you can change it to a moving target.
There is an instruction manual under each weapon, the young master can practice by himself, as for the bullets..." Jins glanced at at least three ammunition boxes stacked next to each shelf, "Create whatever you want, and you can use it anytime after you finish shooting restock. "
Aaron: …
I guess I haven't finished playing, I can't even hold the wand in this hand.
At this moment, he only feels a lot of pressure. He is also somewhat interested in these weapons, but there are too many things.
Fortunately, the requirements for this course are not high, otherwise he would not be able to graduate in a year or so.
"Uncle Jins, you are someone who has experienced it. Did my father have any tricks when he was training?"
"Yes." Jins nodded seriously.
Aaron immediately beamed with joy, and couldn't contain his excitement.
He just asked casually, and he didn't have any hope, but he didn't expect it to be rewarding.
"Why didn't you say such important information earlier."
You didn't ask either!
Jins secretly complained in his heart.
But he also knew that he couldn't say that. After all, his young master was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so he might write it down in his notebook.
"I just wanted to tell you." Jins puffed out his chest, acting righteously.
Aaron took a deep look at him, always feeling that something was wrong.
"What's the trick?"
"Master, do you try injecting magic power?"
When Aaron heard this, he immediately became interested. Could it be that this is also a magic weapon?
He did so immediately, and with the input of mana, a light white magic circle appeared on the barrel of the revolver.
As a gun holder, he immediately understood that this magic circle could adjust the angle of bullet firing, and the hit rate could be increased by at least 20.00%.
"My dear!" Aaron couldn't help sighing, "I love magic to death.
However, with so many guns and ammunition, it is a luxury to change a batch every six months. "
"It's not that troublesome." Jinns explained, "This is just the simplest enchantment, and it can be done in a day with a few professional wizards, and it happens that Gaius Industry has cultivated talents in this area."
Aaron also felt that his question seemed a little stupid, and this consumption was not even a drop in the bucket for Gaius, who had a big family and a big business.
"Is there any other function besides improving the accuracy?"
"It can also increase the power." Jeans pointed to a bazooka, and said solemnly: "If the wizard uses it, it can increase the destructive power by at least [-]%."
"Thirty percent?" Although Aaron was a little surprised, he was not very satisfied with the number. "Just thirty percent?"
"This is not too low." Jins said speechlessly, "First of all, these are just ordinary materials, and they can only be enchanted once, either to increase the power or increase the accuracy.
Secondly, these weapons are only prepared for your own training, young master. Except for a few wizards who make a living in the Muggle world, almost no one will order enchanted guns.
Again, Muggles cannot activate the formation above without magic power. For them, these weapons have no special features, and it does not help the export of products from Gaius Industry.
The most important thing is that weapons also need to be maintained, and the same is true for enchanting magic circles. The rewards of investing in research in this area can be imagined.
Of course, if Lord Weihet is willing to make a move, then the situation is another matter. "
Aaron smiled contemptuously upon hearing this.
It's a beautiful idea, Wilhelm won't waste time on Muggle weapons, unless it's an artifact, it's wishful thinking to ask him to help.
"Alas! Later I have to learn the magic of enchanting.
Based on my talent, I should be able to increase the accuracy or power by [-] to [-]% on the current basis. Aaron shrugged, then picked up the revolver and fired five shots at the target ten meters away.
Thanks to the physical fitness far beyond ordinary people, he aimed and shot in one go, and all five shots hit the bull's-eye, fifty rings.
The corner of Aaron's mouth raised slightly, but within three seconds of being happy, there was a sound next to him.
"The young master's shooting talent is good, but the third stage is not so simple.
A good gunslinger is fed bullets, and a terrible gunslinger is fed guns. Jins put a stack of bullet boxes in front of him, and also brought all kinds of pistols, "Try every weapon!"
I have set a small target for you, young master. Each type of gun has to finish a magazine, and the accuracy rate of the ten-meter target cannot be lower than 50.00%. "
Aaron glanced at the guns piled up into a hill, and smiled forcedly.
There are at least a hundred types of guns here, and he needs to fire about a thousand rounds of bullets in one class.
"Are you trying to tire me out?"
"This subordinate dare not." Jins skillfully took out a bottle of cyan potion, "This is specially prepared by this subordinate for you, Lord Lante, just rub a little to relieve fatigue."
Aaron: …
"It's really thoughtful."
"This is what subordinates should do."
Aaron rolled his eyes, threw the revolver aside, and drew another pistol casually.
boom!boom!boom...
For more than two hours, the gunfire did not survive.
When Aaron exhausted a magazine, Jins would hand him a brand new pistol in time, and the target that would return to its original shape no matter how he hit it, made him feel like everything was in an endless loop.
Rant's potion did play a big role, his arms and fingers didn't feel the slightest fatigue, but the mental exhaustion could not be easily compensated by potion.
Moreover, he used the magic weapon intermittently for more than two hours, and the continuous consumption of magic energy made him, a mid-level mage, a bit overwhelmed.
Throwing away the last pistol, Aaron cleaned up the dense pile of bullet casings piled up under his feet, and collapsed powerlessly on the lawn.
"It's over."
"The accuracy rate is about 80.00%." Jins recorded in the small notebook, "Congratulations, young master, you barely passed the pistol part."
Hearing this, Aaron turned his face away angrily, "Stop being sarcastic, try firing a gun for more than two hours in a row, and you will be bored to death if you don't get tired.
And it's the first time I use a gun, so it's not bad to have this result. "
"Master, this is a little self-deprecating." Jins said with some dissatisfaction, "I still remember your performance in Ollivander's wand shop two years ago, all the wands showed surrender to you.
A mere Muggle wand..."
"Get lost!" Aaron grabbed a handful of bullet casings and threw them over, "Give back the Muggle's wand, do you think it's a magic wand with an enchantment?
I'm 13 years old, don't take me for a fool! "
The teacher is no longer so strict, and the time is looser, and I can even spare two or three hours a day to go around Diagon Alley.
It took him six days to get used to the new tutoring life, until Jins brought him to the armory on the seventh day.
