Chapter 1536 Harpoon Gun

In this era, ordinary firearm-type thermal weapons are simply impossible to use underwater, and will directly misfire.

But the harpoon gun is different. It is said to be a gun, but in fact, this weapon does not use gunpowder at all.

Glancing at the tank that looked like an oxygen tank, Luo Ji probably already knew how it was used.

As for Luo Ji's name of 'harpoon gun', Ye Xuan, who was standing there, tilted her head with a thoughtful expression on her face.

To her, this was obviously a word she had heard for the first time, but the name Harpoon Gun was quite appropriate, so she simply called it that.

After entering the actual operation, in order to see clearly, Luo Ji obviously wanted to follow them and dive into Mingjing Lake.

For this reason, the people in the Ordnance Research Department have already prepared oxygen tanks and diving suits.

Although these devices had been built many years ago, Luo Ji was wearing it for the first time, and it was a bit heavier than expected.

It is not easy for normal human beings to dive into the sea wearing this suit and perform some simple underwater work.

In this way, the person responsible for operating the harpoon gun underwater is a soldier from the Lizardman underwater combat unit.

He was wearing a special battle uniform and a full set of gear for the harpoon gun. After all the preparations were done, everyone including Luo Ji dived into the water one after another.

In order to ensure the safety of their Majesty the Emperor, the people from the Ordnance Research Department also specially found two lizardmen soldiers to guard them.

To be honest, Luo Ji thought this battle was a bit of a fuss.

Doesn't he know how to swim? Let alone wearing a diving suit and carrying an oxygen tank, could he still drown?

After complaining a few words in his heart, Luo Ji, who was too lazy to continue entangled, quickly turned his attention to the scenery under the lake.

The weather today is very good, it is a cloudless sunny day, therefore, the visibility under the lake is also quite high.

From the surface of the lake, the scenery of Mingjing Lake can be said to be unbelievably beautiful, and under the surface of the lake, at a glance, Luo Ji feels as if he is in another beautiful world of blue water.

Of course, at this time, he was not immersed in the beauty of the water, and he forgot about business, and his entire attention was quickly shifted to the lizardman soldier equipped with a harpoon gun.

They didn't dive too deep. Even in this sunny weather, once the dive was too deep, the underwater visibility would begin to plummet, and in the end they couldn't reach their fingers, because the depth that sunlight could reach was limited. For this reason, the experiment of the harpoon gun can be maintained at an appropriate depth.

At this time, it can be clearly seen that in order to carry out this test, the people from the Ordnance Research Department have made some simple arrangements at the bottom of the lake in advance.

Looking from a distance, Luo Ji saw at a glance that in the lake water, there were two targets, one near and one far away, suspended there in a special way.

After diving to a certain depth, the lizardman soldier turned his head and looked in Luo Ji's direction.

In response, Luo Ji made a 'start' action quite simply.

The trial of the harpoon gun officially began at this moment.

The lizardman soldier, apparently familiar with the entire operation in advance, unscrewed the equipped gas cylinder quite neatly, and filled the barrel with a special harpoon.

Afterwards, he picked up the big harpoon gun quite neatly. After taking aim a little, he pulled the trigger, and accompanied by a burst of bubbles, the special harpoon shot out with the water flowing directly. Shot at the closer target.

Because it was in the water, during the entire process, Luo Ji could be said to have seen the ballistics of the harpoon gun clearly, with a different kind of beauty.

At the same time, the attacking principle of the entire weapon was indeed the same as Luo Ji expected.

The general firing principle of hot weapons is to propel and fire according to the high-pressure gas generated by the rapid combustion of gunpowder, and the harpoon gun is more straightforward, and it is directly propelled by the gas in the high-pressure gas cylinder!

This is also the main reason why the harpoon gun can be used underwater.

And just as Luo Ji was thinking about it, the harpoon that flew out had already hit the target in the distance.

Although the size of the target is not small, it still shows considerable accuracy when it can hit.

After that, while the lizardman soldier was reloading the harpoon gun, another lizardman quickly swam to the side of the target and picked it up.

It wasn't until the target was brought in front of him that Luo Ji finally saw it clearly. The wooden target, which was almost five centimeters thick, was directly penetrated by the harpoon!

At the same time, what must be mentioned here is that, as a user of magic weapons, Luo Ji can make a clear judgment. The attack of the harpoon gun just now did not trigger the magic spell on the gun at all!

Sure enough, after completing the loading of the second harpoon, the lizardman soldier turned around again and asked Luo Ji for instructions.

The farther target is undoubtedly prepared for the next spell attack!

After getting Luo Ji's permission, on the harpoon gun that was held up again, the water-blue magic crystals had already started to glow, and then, the entire circle of mysterious incantations around the water-type magic crystals lit up... …

The next second, the harpoon that flew out directly surprised Luo Ji.

"So fast!"

I saw that the speed of the harpoon was astonishingly fast at the moment when it came out.

In just a blink of an eye, the harpoon that flew out already had an amazing momentum and hit the target located farther away.

You don't need to confirm the power, just the speed of fire, plus the attack range of more than 300 meters, is enough to make Luo Ji amazed.

As expected of a magic weapon, there is really nothing to say in terms of performance. According to the rate of fire and the range, as long as the attack is launched while aiming at the target, the average murloc may not have time to react at all, and will not be shot?

As for power...

Just like before, the lizardmen under water quickly picked up the target.

Unsurprisingly, the harpoon pierced the target again.

However, Luo Ji, who was quite focused, quickly discovered a problem. The thickness of the target seemed to have become thinner...

Afterwards, Luo Ji, who seemed to realize something, hurriedly motioned everyone to return to the shore.

And after taking over the target and making a second confirmation, he clearly found that the thickness of this target is indeed not as good as the previous one.

If the previous one was more than five centimeters, then the thickness of this target should be only three centimeters visually.

However, this target is metal...
