"Show me this weapon."

After regaining consciousness, Terembe took the musket from Bray and held it in his own hand to examine it carefully.

After a while, he couldn't help but sigh: "I just realized that the workmanship of this musket is so exquisite. I wonder if our craftsmen from the Caleb Holy Kingdom can imitate it?"

"Does the Marquis of Essen mind if he is so eager to imitate the muskets made in Border Guard Town?" Lemy asked.

"Marquis Aisen doesn't care at all." Bray responded, "He said that the core technology is difficult to imitate."

Bray didn't know that Owen's confidence was actually that he had more advanced musket design drawings and didn't care about this front-loaded flintlock gun.

"That's the reason. Just imitating a musket is useless."

Freya handed the disassembled paper-cased bullets into Terembe's hands and pointed out clearly: "You must first figure out the formula of black powder. This is the most critical thing."

After confirming that they wanted to cooperate with Border Guard Town, the group returned to the central hall to continue the discussion.

In the end, it was decided to let the local Bishop Flynn act as the agent to cooperate with the Marquis of Eisen.

…

Return to Border Guard Town.

Now that you have obtained acid slime from the Twin Chamber of Commerce, let's try to breed it.

Since there was only one acid slime and it was very precious, and no one had ever bred it, Owen didn't want to leave it to anyone else, so he decided to take care of it himself.

I plan to sum up a set of experience myself first, and then hand it over to others to breed on my behalf.

Winston is also very interested in this and will do research and records through Owen's vision and provide some help.

Before starting, first read the precautions provided by Heint to understand the habits of acid slime.

Like other slimes, it doesn't like to be exposed to sunlight and prefers to stay in dark and humid places.

So, Owen built a simple breeding house in the corner of the castle courtyard. After confirming that the acid slime in the clay pot had calmed down, he opened the lid and released it.

This is the first time Owen has seen its appearance. It is the same as ordinary slime. Its body is jelly-shaped, but the difference is that it is yellow in color and the core sphere in the middle is orange.

[It turns out that slime looks like this, and it looks very similar to the orange jelly snack we have here, and it looks delicious.] Winster said in his mind.

This looks delicious? Owen begs to differ.

Although it looks silly and cute on the outside, acid slimes are still wild monsters after all.

As soon as it was released from the clay pot, it immediately regarded the humans present as enemies, its jelly-like body kept shaking, and it sprayed acid in the direction of Owen.

[Careful!] Winster exclaimed.

Fortunately, Owen was prepared and immediately released a fire shield in front of him, blocking the acid attack.

Seeing this, Mapel reacted very quickly. He pulled out his magic sword and almost used an ice blade to attack the slime. Fortunately, Owen raised his hand to stop him.

"Wait a minute, Mapel, acid slime is a very important monster, don't hurt it."

"yes."

Although she was a little worried, Mapel put her sword back and stared at the slime warily.

The two of them tentatively stepped back until the acid slime no longer warned them and their emotions calmed down.

Winster calculated a safe distance and quickly told Owen that as long as he was four meters away, the slime would not attack people.

Seeing that the slime also had such a strong sense of attack, Owen secretly sighed, good guy, fortunately he was able to block the attack himself. If it were directly handed over to others to breed, wouldn't it be a disaster for them?

Even if there are priests here who can save their lives, they will still leave ugly scars.

However, acid slimes are always low-level monsters with low intelligence. They seem to rely on monster instincts to survive in this world.

After feeding him food several times, he gradually became less vigilant about Owen and seemed to know that this human was no threat to him.

Let me mention here that slimes are omnivorous monsters that can eat anything and dare to eat. Owen simply uses the leftover meals in the castle every day to feed them.

The way to eat is to swallow all the food in the body, and it will be completely digested after a while, very quickly.

After Yukina returned to the castle from school, she found that Owen was obsessed with studying slimes, and she immediately became interested and occasionally helped to feed him food.

Within a few days, the acid slime even began to actively kiss Owen and stopped spraying acid randomly.

This shows that safety problems during the breeding process can be avoided as long as you have a good relationship with slimes.

After confirming that it was safe, Owen decided to touch the acid slime with his bare hands, which frightened Mapel.

"Sir Owen, you must not do it! What if it corrodes your hands? At least, it will be safer to wear gloves."

"Don't worry, it's okay." Owen reassured.

Because Owen insisted on touching him, Mapel couldn't stop him and could only watch nervously. If something happened, he would take action immediately.

Reach out and touch it gently, you will find that the appearance of strong acid slime is extremely tender and smooth, full of elasticity, and feels very good to the touch.

After touching it, there will still be a layer of transparent mucus left on your hands, which is slippery.

Sure enough, Owen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, just like the conclusion given by Winster.

The mucus secreted by strong acid slime is weakly acidic, with a pH value of only six points, and will not cause harm to the skin.

Only when it encounters danger will it take the initiative to eject the strong acid stored in its body, but it will not normally do so.

"Mr. Owen, are you okay?" Mapel asked nervously.

"fine."

Owen smiled calmly and said: "The acid slime doesn't see me as an enemy, so it won't spray acid. Mapel, it doesn't seem to see you as a threat. How about you touch it too?"

"Uh... let's forget it."

Of course, Owen has not forgotten why he cultivated acid slime, just for the acid it produces.

And what kind of acid this acid liquid is composed of needs to be identified.

It is relatively easy to obtain the acid. With a little stimulation, it will spray acid.

Put the acid slime back into the clay pot and shake it vigorously, you can feel it spewing acid madly inside. Then open the lid a crack and find a container to collect the acid.

Finally, put the clay pot in a dark corner and let it sit for a while, waiting for the acid slime to subside before releasing it.

Since the temporary laboratory in Irving had just been built and lacked various experimental equipment and chemical reagents for identification, the first batch of acid obtained was transferred to Winster for identification.

The identification results came out quickly, but they were a bit unsatisfactory.

[Oops! Owen, the composition of the acid you transferred is really too complex.] Winster said regretfully.
Chapter completed!
