Regardless of whether they were worried or excited, the high monks returned with minds full of novelty and plans.
As for Horn, he had nothing scheduled for the afternoon, so he simply stayed to watch the bayonet drill at the shooting range.
These bayonets were longer than those on Earth, reaching a terrifying 90 centimeters, and due to the addition of Mithril, they were even lighter.
The weight of a 90-centimeter bayonet could even be maintained around 1.5 pounds.
A rifle barrel of 1.6 meters paired with a 0.9-meter bayonet roughly totaled 2.5 meters, which bore resemblance to the proportions of Song Dynasty sabers.
Horn once assumed Mithril was aluminum, but it proved otherwise.
Mithril itself is not light; only its alloy or solution, or rather compound, becomes lighter.
Once the weight issue is resolved, the strength problem is naturally handled by the lightning furnace.
