Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 29
I took the scope and placed the onto the top hole of the rifle, after I did that I looked towards Long tian and saw that he had placed bottles a mile away. However, my voice could not reach him, this was about to be a problem until Lou Gao came over and gave me a small device. He then told me to speak into it and I could get Long tian to hear what I wanted to say.
Oscar: Hey tian’er can you hear me
Long tian: Loud and clear big bro
I was amazed at what this Old man could build with his knowledge, I then prepared myself to getting ready to shoot. I then told Long tian through the walkie-talkie device and the only three places and ranges that I wanted him to place the bottles in.
Oscar: Alright that’s good enough
Lou Gao: Here
I looked towards the old man and saw a case of designed bullets he had made for me, I took one and put it into the action. I then looked through the scope and saw that there was a line bottles placed over the 2-mile range, I slowly took my time and prepared myself to shoot. So, I held the stock close to my ċhėst, looked through the scope and placed my right index finger close to the trigger. After confirming the shot and target, I pressed the trigger and felt the recoil hitting my ċhėst. This actually felt more like the punch of a spirit elder because I almost literally flew back from it. I then got up and saw that the bullet did not just land on the target, but it actually created a god-damn hole on where it landed.
Oscar: What kind of bullets are these old man
Lou Gao: Hahaha, those are trinitrotoluene bullets which I had made just this morning
Oscar: YOU FUCKING PUT TNT INTO THE DAMN BULLETS
Lou Gao: Amazing right
I looked at the destruction and saw long tian and long Yun waving at us and then speaking through the walkie-talkie.
Long tian: Big bro, what the hell man
Oscar: Sorry about that
Oscar: Hey old man what do you calculate that damage could do
Lou Gao: By my calculations that explosion itself could probably fatally injure a spirit king
Oscar: Holy shit
Lou Gao: Test the bullet out on something else
He then pointed at the metal post which we brought and told me that it’s defence was strong as well, and so I aimed and fired at it with the TNT bullet. There I saw the dent on the metal post through the scope which was very large but did not make it bend over or break at all. We, then kept on testing the other bullets, which hurt like hell from the ricochet, and we also managed to reach the 4-mile range which actually surprised me as the bullet kept on going. However, after testing out one other bullet the Old man made at that point we just left it at that and packed everything.
As we got home we all had a serious expression on our faces, as little over 20 minutes before we left the old man gave me one bullet in which I thought looked kind of strange. Since it had a bluish colour around it, I then took the bullet and inserted it into the action and fired unconsciously. What happened was me breaking both my shoulder and… the sound barrier, and now there was an even bigger hole than before.
I mean this was not like a hole at all, in fact it looked more like a crater instead with a 100-meter radius. I then told Lou Gao and the long brothers to pack everything because we needed to leave now, they nodded their heads and we left as fast as we could.
Oscar: Old man what did you make that last bullet out of
Lou Gao: I made it out of a metal which was sold to me by a friend, but it seems that it was not so normal after all huh
Lou Gao: The thing is I did, but
Oscar: But what
Lou Gao: All that came up was nothing, as it did not give any reaction to whatever I did to it in order to examine it
Oscar: Well whatever it was, it gave the bullet I shot a powerful boost that could…
Long tian: That could what big bro
Oscar: That could potentially hurt a titled Douluo or even more
As soon as I said that the two brothers fell on their buŧŧs and started to mutter something about killing a titled douluo. Meanwhile in my mind I was wondering how the author was going to explain this shit, I mean first he tells me I can’t be OP and now a completely OP weapon falls into my hands.
Oscar: Hey old man you got anymore of that metal
Old man Lou only shook his head and rubbed his forehead
Oscar: Great
Well I guess the author limited that potential of me getting an Op weapon, (A.N: You got that right, whooh, I would not want anyone else to complain about that now would I).
Oscar: Guys there is something I have to beg of you three
Lou Gao: What is it Xiao O
Oscar: We must never make a weapon like this
At first the two brothers were shocked but after looking at my face they understood the gravity of the situation and did not speak any further. I then took the M40A5 and the case of manufactured bullets and put it into my storage space, I looked back towards the others only to see a look of surprise on their faces. I then explained to them how my storage space worked, and after our conversation and promising the secrecy of this weapon and the unknown metal, and also never to manufacture another like this unless we wanted to be responsible for the cause of war on the combat continent.
Just like that days slowly went by, and it seemed that after completing the M40A5 my proficiency in the blacksmith manual had reached 65%. I then helped the Long brothers invent the perfect engine for their airplane, but this also helped my blacksmith proficiency increase as well to a 70% now. Then weeks passed, and the long brother had now completed their engine and the first step to aerodynamics. At that point, I decided that it was time for me to leave and ȧssemble the aven-… sorry I meant the devils, so I went back to the fortress to pack my stuff.
Oscar: Man, it’s going to be hard not miss this place
Lou Gao: Oh, shut up and just leave already
Long tian: Do you really have to go big bro
Oscar: Yeah, I have done what I came here to do
Long Yun: Will you visit us
Oscar: At some point
I then embraced the two brothers who I had called my own brothers, I then looked towards the old man who had misty eyes as well. Over the past 11 months which I had spent here, these three are the closest thing to family. I then took my bags and inserted them into my storage space, after that I patted the old mans shoulder and thanked him for everything.
Oscar: Thanks
Lou Gao: Don’t mention it, just remember you always got a home here as well
Oscar: Yeah, I know
Lou Gao: So, what are you going to do with that weapon of yours
Lou Gao: See you later brat
Oscar: You too, take care old man
I then left and headed out of Gengxin city with the sun setting in the west and the wind blowing towards the east as it ruffled my silver hair, I did not want to admit but damn did I look cool. I then headed towards my first location the forest in the star Luo empire, that was where I would get my 5th spirit ring and find my first teammate, “Dai mubai”.
