Chapter 474 (2/2)

He could fire continuously while standing with a revolving rifle, but it was inconvenient to do so with the bolt rifle, since he had to reload the gun by hand and then raise it back up to aih this process took much less ti the enemy in a short time For example, it was obviously less practical than a revolver in battles—like the ones against the noble rebels in Longsong Stronghold with close combat in the streets or indoors

Iron Axe told Roland his honest opinion, and Carter voiced a similar view

The prince nodded and said, ”Yes, it's not as convenient as a revolver, but it also has a great advantage Andrea, coave the rifle to the witch and said, ”Re your ability”

”Uh-huh” The blonde witch picked up the gun and skillfully reloaded it They could tell that this was not her first ti this neeapon ”Noatchshots, Iron Axe was shocked to see the three farthest wooden targets fall down in turn Her bullets shot the targets that looked as sernails at the distance, on their thin sticks below the target boards

They were standing at least 400 hness, it's” Carter stuttered in disbelief

”Andrea's derivative ability enables her to accurately hit the target with a gun or a bow,” the prince explained with a smile, ”but her ability works on neither bullets nor arrows It only gives her proficiency for using weapons For exaet ten meters away if she throws a stone at it, but if she throws a bird at it, her ability just won't work”

”You mean ordinary people can also achieve that kind of proficiency through training?”

”Exactly The greatest e and accuracy Unlike the guns before, there's no gap between the barrel and the cartridge, so there's no air leak in this new rifle,” Roland nodded and answered ”With a telescopic sight on it, any ordinary soldier can use it to precisely shoot down enemies around 400 to 500 meters ahile a revolver can only shoot accurately within 100 meters”

Iron Axe instantly realized why this weapon was so deadly Most people would never be on guard against attacks fro distance If the shooter hid hiher point, he could easily kill his target And if the shooter was Lady Nightingale, nobody could survive bullets coreed to give me one when it's put intoher mouth

”Of course,” Roland said and put the two rifles away He walked to the other side and re ”In fact, bolt rifles are just the beginning This one is the focus of today's test”

Iron Axe took to the newly unveiled weapon as soon as he saw it Different froun seeer than all the other guns Including the tripod beneath it, it was about half of his height Its long barrel was half as thick as his wrist Connected to the big gun, a long, thin piece of cloth carried shi+ning bullets It was obviously nothing like the guns before in both design and size
