Lu Ning never expected that he would accidentally come up with such a dangerous thing.

And his original goal seems to be to blend new fertilizer?

Lu Ning was a little dumbfounded.

But in any case, this is also a breakthrough result.

The importance of gunpowder obviously does not need to be said. It has a very outstanding effect both in production development and in persuading surrender by force.

And this gunpowder-like powder also gave Lu Ning an extra trump card for survival.

After feeling happy, Lu Ning began to think.

This kind of "gunpowder" is obviously too violent. It does not even require the "ignition" step of normal gunpowder on Blue Sea Star. As long as the powder is mixed together, it will explode.

The two types of iridescent stones, red stone and bluestone, are obviously responsible for this phenomenon.

"Did the explosion occur because virtual energy was obtained from the fragments of iridescent stone?"

Lu Ning touched his chin and made a guess.

"More than that. Obviously, the iridescent stone itself participated in the explosion process." Ghost said, "Captain, it seems that our previous speculation was correct. The iridescent stone can not only be used as a source of charging virtual energy, they

The properties themselves will also affect the properties of virtual energy."

The mixture of charcoal and silver thread grass produces an incomplete virtual energy phenomenon. The explosion occurs only after mixing two kinds of iridescent stones. This is already very illustrative of the problem.

"This ship believes that iridescent stone plays a 'catalyst' role in this process." Ghost put forward his own analysis, "Items that do not have complete virtual energy properties can show stronger virtual energy under the catalysis of iridescent stone.

energy phenomenon.”

"Catalyst..." Lu Ning repeated the word in a low voice, "Maybe."

Lu Ning shook his head to throw out some of the inexplicable messy thoughts he had in his mind, and turned to look at the other materials piled next to him.

"The thing that ignites this 'gunpowder' is not the flame, but the virtual energy in the iridescent stone. Therefore, as long as the debris of the iridescent stone comes into contact with other substances, it will explode immediately. So if we want to use this thing, we must let it

The iridescent stone, charcoal, and silver heart grass are kept separately and mixed when needed..."

Lu Ning tapped his temple.

"Make it a pull-string type? No, it will explode the moment it is pulled open, and you won't be able to throw it out in time."

“How can we achieve safe delayed excitation?”

Lu Ning struggled for a whole day but couldn't think of a suitable solution.

Based on the nature of this thing, it seems that only if it is made into a mine or a trap, its effect is suitable.

But at night, another thing diverted Lu Ning's attention.

Ye Rang Qin Ke and Li Yuanzhou came back.

"Boss Ye, Brother Li!"

Lu Ning and three other people came forward to greet them.

Ye let Qin Ke wave to them and park the car aside.

"This journey has exhausted us." Ye asked Qin Ke to greet them, "Brother Lu, we are going to have a big meal tonight."

At Lu Ning's insistence, Ye Rang Qin Ke finally stopped calling Lu Ning "benefactor" and instead called Lu Ning brothers.

"It should be." Lu Ning agreed wholeheartedly, "You can eat the stewed meat and fish soup until you are full."

Then Lu Ning looked at Li Yuanzhou, who was a little embarrassed at the side, and extended his hand to him: "Brother Li, you are welcome to officially join our Yongle tribe."

"I will do a good job." Li Yuanzhou held Lu Ning's hand and smiled honestly.

"Yongle tribe?" Ye Rang Qinke was curious, "Brother Lu, have you officially established a tribe?"

"Yes, although the number is a bit small." Lu Ning nodded and admitted, then joked: "Why, do you have any rules for forming a tribe?"

Ye let Qin Ke touch his chin and said something that surprised Lu Ning: "There is indeed a rule. If you want to establish a tribe, the leader of the tribe needs to go to the nearest temple to report. Only after passing

After reporting, the temple will register the tribe’s information in the register, and then the temple and each tribe can officially recognize the existence of the new tribe.”

"Oh?" Chang Jiang came over and expressed confusion: "Do they still need to admit it? We just established it ourselves. If we don't register it, what can they do?"

"It has a great impact." Yerang Qinke said, "Tribes that are not recognized by the temple are theoretically 'non-existent' tribes. Other tribes can launch attacks at will, and the temple will not interfere. The people of the tribe

They cannot serve in the temple, nor can they ask for any help from the temple. There are no seats for such tribes in the temple's fire-watching ceremony.

"We generally call these tribes that are not under the control of the temple 'barbarian tribes'."

"Fire-watching ceremony?" Lu Ning keenly caught an unfamiliar new word, "What is that?"

"The Fire Watching Ceremony is an annual sacrificial ceremony held by the temple." Ye Rang Qinke introduced the relevant details of the Fire Watching Ceremony to Lu Ning and the others.

In this world, temples hold many rights.

Of course, these rights do not come out of thin air.

The temple is the palace of the god, and the sacrifices are the eyes and ears of the god.

The temple manages the mortal tribe on behalf of the gods, punishes those who are lazy and lag behind, and rewards those who work hard.

The Fire Watching Ceremony is an event held by the temple at the end of each year to reward and punish all the tribes under its rule.

According to the goals issued by the temple in the previous year's ceremony, tribes that fail to reach the goals will fall into the "Year of Darkness" within the next year.

Grain production is reduced, rivers are drying up, wind and rain are irregular, disasters are rampant, and diseases are spreading.

The tribe that reaches the goal will enter the "ordinary year". It will not be cursed, but there will be no additional rewards.

Tribes that significantly exceed the target will receive different rewards based on their ranking and enter the "Year of Abundance."

In a year of plenty, everything will go well for the tribe, food production will increase, fishing and hunting harvests will increase, and everyone will be strong and healthy, bathing in the blessings of the gods.

Even if there is an irresistible snow disaster like the one some time ago, the tribes that have entered the year of abundance will suffer less damage than other tribes.

"Our Fengsong tribe has been in a 'year of darkness' for seven consecutive years." Ye Rang Qinke sighed, "This year was the year with the best hope of returning to an ordinary year, but unfortunately we encountered this rare event in a thousand years.

Snow disaster, I'm afraid we are going to have another dark year."

"This doesn't seem to be a good thing..." Chang Jiang said.

"This is all a test from the gods, but we have disappointed the gods." Ye Rang Qin Ke made a gesture of worship to the gods, "Let's not talk about this anymore. In any case, I still suggest that Brother Lu, you go to the temple to do it

A registration, even if it is not officially registered as a tribe, at least brother Lu, you also have a name under our Fengsong tribe, so that items are allowed to be traded in the tribe. I came here this time to talk to you about this matter, brother Lu.

of."
