Chapter 308 The little golden retriever who is very good at pictures
After a while.
There were footsteps outside the hospital.
Miss Crown Guard came in with a yawn and a sleepy look on her face.
Lu Qi was not surprised when he saw this.
This guy updated seven or eight WeChat Moments in one night. He wanted to take pictures when he looked at the stars or when he had a midnight snack. He also pretended to dig out a literature book from somewhere and sent it to his friends. Circled.
It also needs to be paired with a paragraph of text "late night reading time".
All in all, this little golden retriever is pretty good at taking pictures.
"Good morning."
Raising her eyelids and lazily saying hello to Lu Qi, Lux lay down on the rocking chair, planning to take another nap.
This guy is the kind of person who wakes up even halfway through his sleep in order to have breakfast.
Needless to say, Lu Qi still admired her in this aspect.
At least he doesn't have such perseverance.
After thinking for a while, he said: "You won't be able to sleep for long now. You will have breakfast soon."
"I can't help it. I can sleep for a while."
Lux adjusted a comfortable position in the rocking chair and yawned again: "I chatted with Kashina and the others until midnight last night."
Lu Qi wanted to ask what topic could be so easy to talk about, but then he thought that girls seemed to be able to talk about any topic for a long time.
Turning around, I saw that this girl had already fallen asleep. She looked like a kitten while sleeping, with her body curled up, making the rocking chair look very big.
But his sleeping face was extremely peaceful, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, as if he was having a sweet dream, which no one could bear to disturb.
Lu Qi thought about the fact that they had formed a small group of their own, and then thought about being excluded.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, then stood up and slowly walked to the kitchen.
Also wearing the same style of dark circles was Kashina, who also looked sleepy.
As for the other girls, Fiona and Sona were used to staying up late from time to time. As an excellent Ranger prospect, it was normal for Quinn to stay up late. Poppy is a yordle, even if he doesn't sleep for two nights, it's no problem.
But despite this, everyone didn't have a good breakfast.
But despite this, Operation CD-ROM was still resolutely implemented.
After finishing breakfast, they packed their equipment and prepared to go back to sleep.
As a result, Lu Qi became a person with nothing to do, wandering around the yard boredly, taking a walk after dinner.
The breeze blowing in the yard is very comfortable. The weather these days is really good, neither cold nor hot, which always makes people feel extra calm.
Although for him, it would be a good choice to go and take a nap.
However, he did not do this. Instead, he prepared the carriage and headed all the way to the R\u0026D base of the Research Institute.
The Research Institute has recently added a lot of people, all of whom are smart talents recruited from all over the country. When you walk inside, you can always feel the prosperity and prosperity.
The most important thing is that these people are really hardworking and hardworking.
"Your Highness."
Wynward knew the news of Lu Qi's arrival in advance, so he waited this morning.
"Hello, Dean."
Lu Qi said hello, and then the two of them walked side by side towards the inside of the Research Institute. He asked directly: "At what stage are the gunpowder equipment prepared?"
Wenhua De heard this and replied: "It can already be used as a weapon."
"Yeah."
Lu Qi's eyes flashed.
Wynward continued: "I asked people to search for it earlier, and this search was really shocking. It turns out that this kind of firearms have already been used in some places."
The Noxians next to them didn't know, but Wynward was sure that they must also be studying gunpowder secretly.
The two sides are actually playing a game of chasing each other.
If it had been slower here, Demacia might have been bombarded in the last battle at the Gate of Sorrow.
What is even more astonishing is that gunpowder, which even Noxus has not fully mastered, has actually been used by some.
Since news of the lifting of the ban on Demacian magic spread in Runeterra, many Demacians who were away have returned.
At the same time, they also brought back a lot of news.
For example, there is a pirate island called Bilgewater located in the Sea of Watchers.
There, firearms using gunpowder as ammunition have become popular.
Not to mention the famous progressive city, Piltover.
(Digression: This technology was previously in the hands of a few high-end technical talents. The more sophisticated the firearms, the fewer people would make them. Basically, they are mainly small workshops, and the firearms are obtained by custom-making. The more famous one is Miss Fortune’s mother was a famous female gunsmith. She was a legend in the gun-making industry, and it was precisely because of this that she attracted Gangplank’s covetous attention, and eventually suffered a fatal disaster.)
Thinking about it this way, Demacia's technology in this area is really lagging behind.
The reason is that they were too closed to themselves before and had little communication with the outside world.
When one day, while they were still immersed in their personal powerful force, the enemy attacked with high-end weapons, Wynward had no idea how to respond.
Fortunately, they now have the ability to solve this problem.
While chatting, Wynward took Lu Qi to the workshop where the firearms were stored.
There is a set of manufacturing equipment here, which is very complete. Lu Qi had told us about Wenhuade a long time ago.
Gunpowder is definitely an excellent weapon species, whether as shells or bullets.
Even in Runeterra, it's very useful.
Because after all, not everyone has unpredictable strength. A normal person would still roll on the ground in pain after being shot.
Winward opened the warehouse where firearms were stored, then opened the first box and took out a shotgun that looked similar to the 686.
"This is a short-range combat firearm. Its power is very huge. Basically, no ordinary armor can withstand its power. But the disadvantage is that it is not suitable for long-distance combat."
After a brief introduction, Wynward opened the second box.
"This is a mid-range combat firearm. It is a submachine gun made according to His Highness's wishes. It has basically stable ballistics and is not as powerful as a shotgun, but it is also suitable for short-range combat. The rate of fire is fast enough and the magazine capacity is not small. As a mid-range weapon Weapon, it has a lot of advantages that a shotgun doesn’t.”
After Wynward finished the introduction, he put down the submachine gun in his hand and opened the third box.
"This is a long-range combat weapon, a long gun. It uses larger bullets and is not low in power. It can easily penetrate ordinary armor, but the recoil is stronger."
Lu Qi watched him put down the weapon that was exactly the same as the AK47 in his impression, and felt in his heart that the progress of the scientific research institute was really not slow at all.
When these high-end talents know the path they want to take next, what they do next will be much simpler.
That’s how to solve the problems on this road.
In particular, having Demacia do this job is actually a completely professional counterpart.
"Also, we have improved the artillery barrel, which can fire farther and make the artillery more powerful."
Wenhuade said again: "If these weapons are used properly, it will be equivalent to adding a lot of troops out of thin air."
You know, extraordinary armor is not something everyone can wear.
Not to mention, not all places like Demacia are rich in fine armor and weapons.
Most places, even Noxus, use armor and weapons made of ordinary materials.
Because Noxus has so many people, it is impossible for them to provide all the soldiers with the equipment they need at the same time.
In other words, these guns and artillery shells are definitely easy to use.
Moreover, in Winward's view, firearms and artillery shells still have a long way to go.
If he continues to develop it, sooner or later he will be able to develop a more powerful weapon with a longer range.
Lu Qi nodded and asked aloud: "Have the soldiers been trained to use these weapons?"
Wenhua De replied: "A group of them have been trained."
"That's good, let them know and get ready."
Lu Qi nodded again and said.
Wenhuade's eyes froze and flickered slightly. He did not continue to speculate on Lu Qi's thoughts and responded: "Yes."
Sensing signs that Lu Qi was about to leave, Wenhuade thought of something and said, "Your Highness."
Lu Qi stopped and turned around in confusion.
"I had a long chat with Frey from the Mage Association last night and found many places where we could have a good conversation."
Wenward said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Lu Qi couldn't help showing a strange look in his eyes and looked at Wenhua De.
you two?
Noticing Lu Qi's eyes, Mr. Wenhuade blushed: "It's not what His Highness thought, it's about exploring scientific research. Your Highness is right. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can find that magic and technology go hand in hand. The place."
Lu Qi nodded and continued to listen carefully.
"Such as firearms and gunpowder. I'm wondering if magic bullets can be developed. Magic bullets have stronger armor-breaking effects and damage."
Winward expressed his thoughts: "Later, we found that this is indeed feasible."
Hearing this, Lu Qi showed a smile on his face: "This is the reason why I got along with you. The coordination between technology and magic is not as simple as we think. Take Piltover as an example, where magic and technology are now developing together. , prospering, we can naturally do the same.”
Wenhua Dequan noticed what Lu Qi said about "stuck together" and always felt that His Highness's statement was strange.
But what he cares more about at this time is the so-called technology and magic.
After his chat with Frey last night, he saw too many possibilities.
"This all depends on your imagination. I believe that with the talents of the two of you, you will not be disappointed."
Lu Qi smiled and said, "I have to go to the palace, so I'll say goodbye first."
"Well, Your Highness, walk slowly."
Wenhuade nodded and said goodbye to Lu Qi.
Returning to the R\u0026D base, he really began to think seriously about magic and technology.
He only felt that Demacia's future ambitions were getting bigger and bigger, and then he thought of what Lu Qi had just vaguely revealed.
After leaving the Research Institute, Lu Qi went all the way to the palace.
After arriving at the palace, he made his way to Jarvan IV's office.
"Brother!"
"Second brother?"
Jarvan IV, who was immersed in his work, was a little surprised when he saw Lu Qi arriving: "You are not common."
"It's not that uncommon."
Lu Qi sat across the table.
Jarvan IV said: "Your secret key is really useful, but it's a bit disrespectful. Last night I posted it on WeChat Moments, but my father caught me doing it."
He said with a slight sigh.
This is indeed an annoyance.
After catching fish at work, it was already midnight when I got home, so I secretly posted on WeChat Moments.
Within two minutes, he was caught by Jarvan III.
It’s true that my father stayed up most of the night, just checking Moments.
Hearing this, Lu Qi smiled and said: "Someday I will think about a function that can be secretly prevented from being seen by others."
Jarvan IV's eyes lit up when he heard this: "This function is great, study it quickly! By the way, what are you here to do today?"
"I want to see if you have any information here."
Lu Qi asked casually: "How is the tension between Noxus and Ionia going now?"
"Just in time, I just received the news." Jarvan IV heard the news and said: "Noxus is still unwilling to give up, and it seems that it is not willing to surrender. They continued to dispatch troops to Ionia, and also replaced I forgot what the new general was called."
He thought about it but didn't remember it.
However, it is basically true that Noxus continues to send troops to attack Ionia.
After listening to this, Lu Qi became thoughtful.
Not long ago, Noxus and Ionia fought in Presidenton and were defeated.
This move basically sealed the outcome of the eight-year war.
However, Noxus remained stubborn and continued to send troops to support the defeated army, seeming to have plans to regain its strength.
But for now, they still occupy a lot of land in Ionia, and there is indeed hope.
As a traditional invader, it is indeed a good character of Noxus to never give up.
After thinking about it, he raised his head and looked at Jarvan IV: "Brother, don't you think this is an opportunity for us?"
Jarvan IV couldn't help but be startled when he heard what he said. When he reacted, his expression became serious: "What do you mean?"
"good."
Lu Qi stood up and took two steps back and forth: "Last time Noxus attacked our border, they came when they wanted and left when they wanted. If we hadn't reacted quickly enough, there would have been more casualties. To be honest, this tone I can't swallow it."
After he finished speaking, Jarvan IV slapped his palm heavily on the table.
Instead, Lu Qi was shocked.
Jarvan IV also stood up with an angry look on his face: "To be honest, I can't even swallow this breath!"
He naturally knew that if it weren't for Lu Qi, he alone would probably suffer a big loss.
Not to mention retaking the fallen Gate of Mourn.
Since returning, Jarvan IV has been holding his breath in his heart.
But soon, he calmed down, sat back on the chair, adjusted his mood, and said slowly: "I understand what you mean, second brother, but have you thought about the cost of doing this? During this period, you may It’s a lot of pressure to bear, and you have to carry more than just a moment of anger.”
Lu Qi came back to his senses and looked at Jarvan IV with the same serious face: "I have thought about it. It is precisely because I have thought about it that I came today."
