Chapter 223
In order to cool down her body and try out the feel of the new weapon, Elena planned to go outside with Melissa to get some fresh air.
As soon as she walked out of the forging room and came to the hall where the apprentices were training, she saw the blacksmith with his hands on his hips, cursing and pointing.
"Look at you, you made the same mistake again. I have taught you so many times but you still don't understand. Why are you so stupid?"
It seems that the blacksmith was resentful because he failed to teach Elena personally. He couldn't take his anger out on Elena or his daughter, so he could only find other unlucky people to vent.
"I've often told you that forging is like treating a woman. You need to have a meticulous heart, then use your blazing passion to melt the other person, and finally use your hard hammer to transform the other person, and finally you can get the fruit of love!
Tell me, forging is love!"
"Forging is love!!!"
The old blacksmith seemed to be having some fun, leading the apprentices to shout out meaningless words.
And Elena had every reason to suspect that the old guy was making dirty jokes, but he had no evidence to expose it.
Melissa stood aside with a black face, obviously she also understood what her father was saying, her fiery red hair fluttered slightly, like a burning flame that made it difficult for people to approach.
But because the other apprentices were watching, as a daughter, she didn't want to embarrass her father, so she could only pull Elena's hand and walk outside with an angry face.
Coming to the open space dedicated to sword testing, there is a row of straw dummies in the center. Generally, blacksmiths or apprentices will test the power and feel of weapons when they are satisfied with them.
Now it is just right to use it to test the gun for Elena, even if the straw dummies are damaged, no one will feel sorry.
Standing about 30 meters away, Elena aimed at the dummy with one hand, feeling the feel of holding the pistol, and frowned subconsciously.
Even before shooting, the touch of the hand made Elena feel a strong sense of disobedience, and the feeling of discomfort surged in his heart. It was completely different from the comfort of holding modern firearms.
Bang!
With the action of pulling the trigger, the hammer hit the magazine, and the bullet shot out with black smoke from the muzzle.
Under Elena's terrifying accuracy, the bullet accurately hit the scarecrow's head and penetrated it completely.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He pulled the trigger again and fired three shots in a row. The bullets still landed accurately on the scarecrow's head, and the funny smiling face was completely blown to pieces.
The continuous firing performance was normal, and the rotation of the magazine did not stop at all. It seemed that everything was going so smoothly.
But Elena did show a very dissatisfied expression. In his opinion, the weapon in his hand was a semi-finished product, which was far from what he expected.
First of all, there was the stability problem of the gun itself. The whole gun was shaking when it fired a shot, and there was friction and collision between parts, and even a harsh sound could be heard.
The occurrence of this situation means that the durability of this pistol is extremely low. Even if it is well maintained, it may not be able to support a few battles and will disintegrate by itself.
There was also a problem with the trajectory of the shooting. Although Elena was very accurate, in fact, Elena was aiming for all the bullets to fall at the same point at the beginning.
In fact, he fired four shots in total, but the bullets were scattered in different places on the scarecrow's head. The shooting error was relatively obvious. When shooting at a high-speed moving target, there would definitely be a miss, even if Elena aimed very accurately.
The feel was also very poor, the recoil was very large, and the grip felt very uncomfortable. The polishing of these details was too poor.
It can only be said that this is just a "homemade gun" after all. Compared with the guns designed by professionals from a professional perspective and professional industrial technology, the performance gap in all aspects is too large.
These are all things that require time to polish, and they are still problems that cannot be solved in a short time.
However, putting aside these minor problems, it is still qualified as an unexpected weapon. Elena can imagine the panic expression of his future opponent after being knocked down by his shot.
"I didn't expect this little thing to be so powerful."
Melissa on the side loosened her hands that were blocking her ears. Although she was well prepared when Elena fired the first shot, she was still startled by the huge noise.
At the same time, she was a little worried that this thing would explode like the previous magic pistol, and she was afraid that Elena would stab her again.
But fortunately, everything seemed normal, the bullet was fired smoothly, the power was guaranteed, and it looked like a normal long-range weapon, unlike the half-finished magic pistol.Like the guided pistol, it can only be used as a self-destructing artifact close to the face.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
But seeing Elena's dissatisfied expression, Melissa was really puzzled. She didn't know much about these things, but just looking at the movement, it was no problem to use it to kill ordinary monsters, so why was Elena still so dissatisfied.
"Nothing, just some details are not good enough."
Elena didn't want to explain too much. There were too many things that needed to be improved, such as shock absorption, barrel modification, and the most important overall coordination of the firearms, which basically needed to be overturned and redone.
This thing was completed by him and Melissa. Elena didn't want to be too extreme and make Melissa and himself depressed.
"This is a good thing. Being able to detect where it is not good enough means that there is still room for improvement. This is the first pistol you made. There is definitely no way to be perfect. Don't think too much."
However, Melissa had already seen Elena's concerns, and reached out to pat Elena's head and said comfortingly.
She was not comforting Elaina without thinking. What she said made sense. No one could do things perfectly right from the start.
Even if there really was such a person, such a person was definitely abnormal.
"Well, thank you."
Elaina was not the kind of person who was stubborn. She would slowly improve the dissatisfied parts in the future. There was nothing to worry about.
What really made people crazy was the situation where they knew there was a problem but didn't know where the problem was. Now it was really lucky to be able to figure out where the problem was.
After testing the weapon, Elaina and Melissa returned to the blacksmith shop. They stayed in the blacksmith shop for lunch at noon, which was also to maintain the relationship with Melissa and the blacksmith.
The blacksmith welcomed Elaina to come and eat. He never stopped talking during the meal, but most of the time he kept instilling his forging ideas into Elaina under the pretext of eating and chatting.
This made Melissa roll her eyes. She didn't want to see Elena standing in the open space like her father one day and shouting "forging is for women", which is a very infuriating thing to hear.
