Chapter 195
The argali cub had experienced the incident with the gale lizard and had an instinctive fear of this kind of sound, but he was surrounded by his friends and familiar adults, and there were cheers all around him.
The retracted hooves relaxed again. The argali cubs saw the little snow wolf and the dwarf child running towards the charred area after the explosion. The curiosity in their hearts overcame their fear. They struggled to jump out of the adults' arms and skipped to keep up with their companions.
Bombur was also very excited, "Finally it's stable, and the effect is even stronger than before!"
Before this, the two of them had conducted countless experiments at the coal mine. They made gunpowder into many shapes and changed the shell materials many times. Finally, they decided to make it into the shape of black beads and then carved auxiliary magic patterns on it. The power of the gunpowder increased several times.
"Isn't this a souped-up version of Thunderbolt? Oh my god, you dwarves are so strong!"
Yu Sui muttered to himself in amazement, this appearance, this power, is even cooler than the thunder bombs he saw on TV.
He was standing very close to the dwarf. Bombur's ears twitched and he said with delight, "That's a good name! We were just thinking of a name for it!"
Barlow's face was also filled with joy. "Yes, that's right, let's call it Thunderball. What a powerful name! I originally wanted to call it Thundergod's Wrath..."
Yu Sui choked up, uh, this name is too shocking...
"Thunderbolt sounds better. What a crappy name you came up with, Barlow," Bombur complained.
When Barlow heard this, he put his hands on his hips and began to refute.
These two people were still dangling in Xu and Xiangcao's hands, yet they were still quarreling. It was really strange.
Yu Sui was a little speechless about the two people, and followed his tribesmen to the explosion site to take a look.
He saw that the large pile of bricks and stones that Lanlos had pushed down as a favor had been blown into countless pieces and were flying everywhere.
Today is a very important day for the tribe. All the tribesmen are here, even the warriors.
Qi and other soldiers scattered around just in case. Now that the crisis was over, they gathered together to observe the explosion site.
Yu Sui was holding a blackened brick in his hand, marveling at the power of the thunder bomb when he suddenly felt a warmth on his back. He turned around and met Qi's gaze.
The two of them haven't seen each other much in the past few days. At first, Yu Sui was embarrassed to see Qi, and later he was busy making vermicelli and was delayed for a few days.
Recently, Yu Sui is planning to take some time to talk it out with the other party. No matter what the result is, he can't keep dragging the other party like this. This is not his style.
However, although he noticed Qi's focused gaze, Yu Sui didn't say anything as there were so many people around him. He just scratched his cheek uncomfortably when he was surrounded by the dwarves.
Uncle Robert came closer and said, "You were the one who came up with the idea of gunpowder, right? I heard from Barlow that it's so powerful, can you really let other dwarves use it?"
"That means the other dwarf tribes can protect themselves even without the help of orcs. At least they don't have to be afraid of low- and mid-level monsters."
"Of course not. Maybe we can even hunt monsters and eat them."
The other dwarves were also discussing with each other. Although the Tu tribe was protected by the snow werewolves, the other dwarf tribes were still living in dire straits.
I've heard Bombur mention before that if the research on gunpowder is successful, they can share it with other dwarves, which would be a great help. Although Yu Sui is now their chief, he is still a snow werewolf. How can they not be moved when he cares so much about the dwarves?
"This way you won't have to worry about the lives of other dwarves all the time. At least they'll have weapons to protect themselves."
Yu Sui said, even though dwarves are masters of weapons and can create high-level weapons and even artifacts, it does not mean that they can use them.
The higher the level of the weapon, the more powerful the energy required, otherwise it cannot be activated.
Many magic props require magic power to activate, and the materials needed are very precious. For example, the spiritual wood that Shuyu found in the snow werewolf's firewood pile would cost hundreds of gold coins in human society.
Gunpowder is different. With the improvements made by Bombur and Barlow, it only needs a little energy to activate it. Its power is comparable to that of a third-level advanced fire explosion magic, and the raw materials used to make it can be described as cheap.
If saltpeter mines could be found, even the most daunting step of refining saltpeter soil could be omitted.
The appearance of gunpowder - officially renamed thunder bombs - excitedly made a group of dwarves start singing and dancing around the ruins, singing ancient songs in the dwarven language.
The orcs were also happy for them. After getting along with the argali people for a while, they found that the dwarves were no different from them in character except for their height. It was just that everyone had their own strengths, and now they were happy for them.
Ak looked at the dwarves dancing happily, and then looked at the snow werewolves around them. Everything was very peaceful, but he felt a pang in his heart.
Since his mother and warriors died in battle, the Argali people are now leaderless and follow the Snow Wolf people to do all the work, but this is not a long-term solution.
Ak is very self-aware. Although his mother is the chief of the tribe, he himself does not have the ability to be the chief of the tribe. He originally wanted to let his most powerful warrior and best friend Asa be the chief of the tribe, but was flatly rejected by the other party.
The two of them and Lily discussed it and finally decided to let Uncle Qi, the oldest remaining member of the tribe, be the chief and lead the remaining Argali people to live a good life. However, Uncle Qi was unwilling to do so and asked them earnestly to ask the young chief of the Heitu tribe for his opinion.
Ak and Asa both admired Yu Sui. Although Yu Sui was not the most powerful snow werewolf and was even a cub in poor health, he was able to manage the tribe in an orderly manner, which subverted their cognition.
After all, the living standards of most orcs are quite backward now, which is why the orcs in the Golden Kingdom started a war to establish a country.
Since the Argali Tribe did not join the Golden Kingdom, they also disagreed with the actions of those orcs. In their hearts, those orcs in the Golden Kingdom had betrayed their orc ancestors and turned closer to human life, and were no longer worthy of being called orcs.
So even though the orcs in the kingdom lived a richer life than them, the Argali people looked down on them.
The Black Map Tribe is different. Ever since he came to this tribe, Ak's cognition has been constantly refreshed. It turns out that orcs can live like this, and dwarves can do many things that orcs cannot do.
Ake compared himself who was at a loss after losing his mother, and then looked at Yu Sui who was full of energy and busy for the tribe every day, and felt ashamed.
