If normal "politeness" doesn't work, then it's just...

Ceremony first, funeral later!

Fortunately, after four punches, the kobold became much more honest.

"You asked him why he came here? Is it just to find me?"

"Wow wow wow!"

"Wow woo woof woof..."

Seeing that Oreo and the Kobold were trying to communicate, as if they were communicating in one dialect and another in Mandarin, Su Mo had no choice but to sit on the sidelines and wait.

With a simple sentence, Oreo communicated for a full four to five minutes.

"Wang?"

"You said he didn't come to see me?"

Seeing the expression of Oreo shaking his head and the undead and fake look on the Kobold's face, Somo felt a headache.

"Ask him what he's skulking about in our bushes!"

Originally, Su Mo thought that the Kobold came here by following the traces, but after looking at it this way, it was not the case!

"It seems that I was too cautious..."

"Perhaps... the kobolds sent several teams to look for things, but this team just happened to be encountered by me?"

After thinking for a while, Su Mo chose to wait for the result of the Oreo exchange.

This time, the conversation lasted longer, about ten minutes or so, and Oreo got the news until his mouth was dry.

"Wang..."

"Wang!"

Seeing that Su Mo couldn't understand the meaning, Oreo simply ran to the debris pile and rummaged through it, and finally pulled out a wooden stick.

It is a tool used by kobolds to cast spells!

"There is something wrong with this wooden stick? But the system can't scan its attributes at all?"

Picking up the wooden stick and putting it under the light bulb, Sumo began to examine it carefully.

Back in Vault Two, he had inspected the kobolds' wands that seemed to be used to cast spells.

After all, who doesn't have the desire to be a magician~

It's a pity that this magic wand not only has no attributes, but also doesn't have the ability to emit fireballs with a single wave.

Now, under Oreo's reminder, Su Mo looked carefully again, and immediately found clues.

There is a small opening at the top of the stick, which seems to be sealed with wood. No matter how you look at it, it is not something that can grow naturally.

Putting the wooden stick not far from his nose, Sumo fanned the air with his hands, and used the wind to gather the smell from the wooden stick to his nose.

"This smell..."

A familiar memory circled in my mind.

Fumbling for the stick, Su Mo found a button-like thing under the center of the stick.

Press lightly, and the small closed mouth at the top of the stick opens, and the smell inside becomes more intense.

"Is this... gunpowder?"

Chapter 49 Wasteland Week One, Hope Germinates

The small hole that blocked the smell was opened, and the smell wafting out could not be restrained, allowing Su Mo to determine the ingredients almost immediately.

gunpowder!

Or to be more precise - black powder!

Carefully pour the black particles from the stick onto the table, and an extremely pungent sulfur smell wafts out.

"Does the kobold need black powder to release the so-called fireball technique?"

Su Mo felt a little unbelievable when he got this news all of a sudden.

In the No. [-] shelter before, the warlock kobold first waved his wooden stick before releasing his fireball.

At the time, Su Mo thought it was a spell-casting action, or the attribute of the stick.

I didn't dare to think, so the Kobold released a fireball and respected science?

"So... black powder is what the kobolds are looking for?"

Hearing Su Mo's muttering, Oreo nodded quickly, indicating that Su Mo understood correctly.

The kobold who was tied up in front of the table seemed to resign himself to his fate after seeing Su Mo pour out the black powder, and continued to chatter.

I didn't care about the communication between Oreo and the Kobold.

Su Mo clicked on the game panel, clicked on resource scanning, and ticked the raw materials for black powder preparation on the resource option.

[Record]: A small sulfur mine was detected in the southeast of the player's current distance of 465 meters

[Record]: 2/3 times today

"Sure enough, what they are looking for today is this natural sulfur mine"

There was neither sadness nor joy on Su Mo's face, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.

The modern process of extracting sulfur has already been innovated many times. Even after the steps of atmospheric pressure and vacuum, catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and delayed coking, the sulfide in the oil is separated to make sulfide sewage. The sulfur in the process is recovered and processed to produce finished sulfur.

And in ancient times without this technology, people wanted to prepare sulfur:

One is to find a way to exploit natural sulfur mines like those near the refuge.

The second is to extract the sulfur inside by smelting pyrite.

Kobolds have the ability to judge and find sulfur mines, which proves that they have touched the edge of science.

It is very likely that they already know these things, and after mixing them in a certain proportion, they will make such amplified gunpowder, which will be catalyzed by spells to increase the power of the fireball.

"Wang?"
