"Big Brother's protective spirit power was actually broken!"
"And it was a precise hit on the target from over a kilometer away!"
"What an amazing spirit tool!"
"Second Brother, what was this long spirit tool called again?"
"barrett."
Several Enshrined were all shocked by the power of the barrett.
Who was Qian Daoliu?
He was a Level 99 Peerless Douluo.
Even an ordinary Titled Douluo might not be able to break through his protective spirit power.
But now, his defense had been breached by a spirit tool.
This was simply unprecedented.
Golden Crown stood up from the ground, taking out a notebook to record while saying, "The barrett, when combined with spirit tool technology, can penetrate the defense of a Limit Douluo. Its power is decent."
"I'll strive to develop the Cannon Sniper as soon as possible."
As he spoke,
Qian Daoliu had already flown back from a kilometer away.
Through Qian Daoliu's personal experience,
Golden Crown had a precise understanding of the power of the several guns currently developed.
The one with the least power was the ordinary pistol.
Its range was roughly between thirty to fifty meters.
The damage from a single bullet posed a lethal threat to a Level 50 Spirit King.
Rapid fire could cause damage to a Level 60 Spirit Emperor.
As for the pistols combined with spirit tool technology,
their power was even more formidable.
The damage from a single bullet posed a lethal threat to a Level 70 Spirit Saint.
Rapid fire could force a Spirit Saint to unleash their Martial Soul True Body.
As for the barrett combined with spirit tool technology, that went without saying.
A single shot directly broke the defense of a Level 99 Peerless Douluo.
According to Qian Daoliu,
if an ordinary Titled Douluo were caught off guard and hit in a vital spot by the barrett,
they would be killed instantly.
After Golden Crown finished recording, he twirled his pen and said, "Alright, I have a general understanding of the power of these guns. Thank you, Great Grandfather, for helping me test them."
"No need for thanks."
"If you really want to thank me, lend these guns to your Great Grandfather to play with for a few days."
Qian Daoliu's eyes were full of curiosity.
Especially towards the barrett.
He had lived for over a hundred years.
He had seen countless spirit tools.
But there had never been a spirit tool that could make him feel a sense of crisis.
At this moment, Qian Daoliu really wanted to take the barrett apart to see its internal structure.
To see how it could have such immense power.
Golden Crown put away the barrett and said, "The pistols are no problem; I can even give one to Great Grandfather. But there's only one barrett, and I might need it for the subsequent batch production."
"So I can't lend it to you."
Seeing that he couldn't borrow the barrett he wanted to play with most,
Qian Daoliu wasn't angry. After all, didn't Golden Crown say so?
There would be batch production later.
He could just get one then.
"Fine then, I'll take this pistol." Qian Daoliu took one of the golden desert eagles.
As for why he chose this one?
The reason was naturally that it matched him very well.
"Sure." Golden Crown agreed without a second thought.
Seeing this, the other Enshrined also gathered around.
"In terms of relationship, Xiao Mian and I are the closest. After all, I've always carried Xiao Mian on my back while flying in the sky."
"Speaking of that, I disagree. When Xiao Mian wet the bed as a child, I was the one who changed him."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't forget I was the one who..."
In an instant,
the several Enshrined began to reveal Golden Crown's embarrassing childhood secrets.
Jin E did not join this dispute.
After all, this was his own grandson. Would he not give one to him?
Seeing these people about to reveal all his secrets,
Golden Crown quickly stopped them: "Stop! Everyone gets one, everyone gets one."
In truth, with the strength of the several Enshrined, pistols were basically optional for them.
The reason they wanted them was also out of curiosity for something new.
However, before the several of them left, Golden Crown said again, "The matter of the guns must be kept secret. It's limited to just us several knowing about it."
"Additionally, I want to manufacture the guns in large batches."
"I'll need a lot of materials as well as money..."
Before Golden Crown could finish,
Qian Daoliu generously said, "Materials and money are small issues. You make a list, and I'll send people to buy them for you."
"As for the money, you write the report, and I'll sign the slips."
The experienced Qian Daoliu
had already seen the strategic value of these guns.
If a hundred-man squad armed with guns were formed, they would definitely be an invincible existence on the battlefield.
Not to mention that the method of using these guns was also very simple.
If ordinary people held guns, they could probably also contend with powerful Soul Masters.
Afterward, he warned the other Enshrined with a serious tone.
"Remember what Xiao Mian said; the matter of the guns must be kept strictly confidential."
"Absolutely no information must be leaked out."
"Yes" x6
...In Nuoding City.
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang had just received this month's gold coin subsidy from Spirit Hall.
Looking at the gold coins in his hand,
Tang San lamented, "Spirit Hall really takes good care of us commoner Soul Masters, actually giving us subsidies every month."
"Back when I was in Saint Spirit Village, sometimes I couldn't even afford to eat."
Unexpectedly, after Yu Xiaogang finished listening,
disdain and coldness were revealed in his eyes.
He said with a sharp tone, "Little San, your thinking is too naive."
"You can't even imagine Spirit Hall's true purpose."
Tang San was startled, very puzzled: "What purpose could there be?"
Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly, his eyes revealing a chill: "Think about it, where in this World are there nobles who are good to commoner Soul Masters?"
"The small amount of gold coins Spirit Hall distributes may seem like they are helping us, but in fact, they are just using the guise of helping commoners to win over people's hearts."
Tang San was confused: "But Teacher, even if Spirit Hall is winning over hearts, isn't it fine as long as the money is distributed into the hands of Soul Masters?"
"This is why I say you are naive." Yu Xiaogang continued to retort, then asked a question: "Do you know where the subsidies distributed by Spirit Hall come from?"
Tang San shook his head.
Yu Xiaogang said in a heavy tone, "These so-called subsidies are actually funded by the Two Great Empires, Heaven Dou and Star Luo."
"And Spirit Hall is merely overstepping its bounds, distributing this money under its own name."
"To make the commoners think that this money is given by Spirit Hall."
"Over the years,"
"Spirit Hall has relied on this method to win over a large number of people's hearts."
"And those commoners only know to be grateful to Spirit Hall, not knowing that the ones truly giving them money are the Two Great Empires!"
Speaking to this point, a sharp look suddenly flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
"The Soul Masters on the continent should have been loyal to the two imperial families."
"But since Spirit Hall appeared, this rule was broken. They have tightly bound Soul Masters under their own banner and required Soul Masters to maintain absolute loyalty to Spirit Hall."
"And once a traitor is discovered, they are hunted down and exterminated."
"What they are doing, how is it any different from rebellion!"
Yu Xiaogang spoke with impassioned fervor.
In his words, Spirit Hall had already become a most heinous power.
As if it simply shouldn't exist in this World.
After Tang San finished listening to this explanation from Yu Xiaogang, he lowered his head and fell into deep thought...
