Next, Violet took out a red marble and placed it on a stick-like object similar to a fire poker.

As she loaded the projectile, she explained to Iris, "This weapon is called the Divine Gun, and the ammunition is named Armor-Piercing Rounds. Simply pull the trigger lightly, and it can penetrate through enemies wearing armor."

After loading, Violet raised the Divine Gun, aimed at a dummy wearing black armor in the distance, and gently pulled the trigger.

"Boom!" With a muffled sound, the red projectile flew through the air like a bullet, accurately hitting the dummy.

In an instant, a circular hole appeared on the black armor of the dummy.

"Your Majesty, how does it look?" Violet's face was filled with pride, as if she could already envision the vampire army wielding the Divine Gun and sweeping everything in their path.

"Not bad, not bad." Iris smiled brightly, but secretly amazed. Just by pulling the trigger lightly, it could penetrate armor. If aimed at the head or heart, wouldn't it be able to kill enemies instantly?

Did Violet really invent such a complex weapon? Iris acknowledged that Violet's knowledge surpassed her own, after all, she was a genius girl from the Red Moon Academy. However, the Divine Gun was truly a revolutionary creation. While magic required chanting spells, the Divine Gun only required aiming and shooting to kill enemies.

Magicians couldn't continuously cast magic; their magical energy would eventually be depleted. And once magical energy ran out, without abundant magic power, they couldn't even stand.

But the Divine Gun was different. As long as there were enough armor-piercing rounds, it could continuously eliminate enemies.

"Can the Divine Gun be mass-produced, Violet?" Ignoring the strange feeling in her heart, Iris asked.

"Um..." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Violet's face, then quickly disappeared. "Not for now. The main reason is that the materials for making the Divine Gun are highly special, and the secondary reason is that I haven't found a suitable manufacturing method yet."

Her gaze fell on Iris' face, and she whispered softly, "I didn't fully grasp what my master taught me at first. I need some time to figure things out..."

Upon hearing Violet's words, the excitement on Iris' face instantly disappeared.

She felt excited when seeing this weapon, but the result was that it couldn't be mass-produced.

And the primary and secondary reasons were completely reversed. It was obviously because Violet couldn't make it, and the talk about material problems was nonsense. How could the vast territory of the Shuowang Empire not have the corresponding materials?

"Then where did this Divine Gun come from?" Iris pointed to the Divine Gun in Violet's hand and asked.

"It was made by my master. She enjoyed tinkering with eccentric weapons, and when she passed away, she entrusted all her life's research results to me," Violet explained.

"Can the explosive gun be mass-produced?" Iris continued to inquire.

"That's completely possible. As long as our beloved Queen signs the production document, we can start manufacturing. After all, those guys in the arms factory only care about money and nothing else," Violet shrugged.

"I will have Baixi deliver the document to you. I'll leave this matter in your hands," Iris looked at Violet solemnly.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured! Violet will definitely handle this matter well," Violet vowed confidently.

"In the future, showcase the weapons that can be mass-produced, and there's no need to showcase the ones that can't be mass-produced, so as not to make me envious," Iris reminded.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Violet bowed respectfully.

Carrying the Divine Mechanism Gun, Violet walked towards the office and began to study its structure further.

"How good would it be if Violet's master were still alive," Iris sighed sadly.

Violet's master was a dragon, and if they were still alive, Iris would definitely send Violet back to further her studies and inquire about the news of the dragon clan.

Although Violet's teacher was a dragon living in exile, they would at least know the last time they saw other members of the dragon clan.

"Ah..." Iris let out a sigh.

Lilia hid in the distance, secretly peering at Iris. Seeing Iris sigh, a strong sense of curiosity surged in her heart. What was Iris suddenly worried about?

Although Iris had told Lilia that she didn't need to worry, Lilia couldn't help but secretly observe her.

As for Ling, Lilia would still accompany her to play. Little Ling was too sensible, making people want to cherish her.

Iris had said that Ling was also her daughter, and Lilia had verified this with Li Lanzu, confirming that it was not a lie.

Since both of them were her daughters, naturally Lilia would also pay some attention to Ling.

There was still a feeling of owing Iris, and some things were irreparable, giving her an indescribable sense of guilt.

Although she didn't seek Iris's forgiveness, it could still alleviate Lilia's guilt to some extent.

After spending time with Ling, Lilia gradually discovered some peculiarities about her, such as Ling's eyes, which always seemed to be in a hazy state.

Of course, when Lilia asked Ling about her eyes, Ling always shook her head, saying that her eyes were fine.

Lilia didn't delve deeper into it, and she had never doubted what Ling said, after all, she was her own daughter.

Iris walked back to the palace and began to draft official documents, ready to seal them with the imperial seal.

While Iris was preparing the documents, she used the Consciousness Space to summon Baixi to collect the documents.

Baixi received the notification and immediately arrived in front of Iris, waiting obediently. After the lesson from the last time, Baixi was noticeably more honest and no longer dared to argue with Iris.

"Deliver these documents to Violet," Iris handed the documents to Baixi and gave her instructions.

"Yes, Mother," Baixi nodded in agreement and left.

....

In the White Stork Empire, Merice was preparing to find Lessi. Just as she walked out of the palace gates, she bumped into Davis.

The two of them almost stopped at the same time, staring at each other without saying a word.

After a minute of silence, Davis was the first to speak, saying, "You are... Chairman Merice, right?"

"Yes," Merice nodded, "Davis, a fellow student from Night White. I remember you."

"Mhm," Davis responded indifferently, still staring fixedly at Merice. "I never expected you to be a vampire. Ever since you disappeared from the student council, everyone in the school believed you were dead. I didn't expect you to still be alive."

"That's my personal matter, no need to tell anyone," Merice responded coldly. "Besides, your identity is also extraordinary. My younger sister wanted me to tell you that this is a trial where vampires and humans coexist. If anyone dares to break the rules, they will be put to death."

Davis did not answer, he did not understand what the vampire who had defeated him was up to. A pilot project for vampires and humans to coexist? What was the purpose? To eliminate the barriers between them?

Merice left in a hurry, she found Lessi and asked her to inform the troops stationed here to avoid conflicts with humans and be cautious of other forces' attacks.

"Understood," Lessi nodded, indicating her understanding.
