Chapter 21: Derek Grande

Windy City, Count Ross's Mansion, Weapons Testing Ground.

Derek stood on the experimental field wearing a set of magic armor similar to "Infinite Stratos", this experimental field was set up by Derek, but because of the reason that he was on duty in the royal capital, it was usually a place used by goblin masters to experiment with their various magical brains, and it was the first time he used it.

The daily maintenance cost of this experimental field accounts for two-thirds of the daily expenses of the entire Earl's Court, and for this reason, the butler Tam often writes to his young master to complain.

Derek looked at the fact that although it was often maintained, the ground was still densely covered with craters, and thought to himself, "It's good that the textbook I gave to the goblins only talked about high school, and deleted all the information related to nuclear physics, otherwise I'm afraid my Earl's Court would be gone, right?"

"What are you doing here?"

"This ...... This, young master, you know, my son Hans has been working for the young master in the workshop of the royal capital, and the letter sent back before said, young master, you once mentioned a weapon called a cloud burst bomb, so we tried to make one according to the principle you said...... The young master's idea is really unusual......"

Master Einstein said hesitantly.

Wait, I remember the day the little princess won the party, she seemed to be partying with the goblin masters in her workshop, and then, Princess Wei'er thought that Napoleon's cannon was not powerful enough, of course, what kind of bicycle do you need for a small competition? I have cloudburst bombs here, do you want ?...... I don't remember anything the next morning, what else did I say?!

"Master Einstein, did Hans mention anything else to you?" Derek asked with some trepidation, with the weirdness of alchemy, I can't figure out how the atomic bomb really came out, hey, Derek doesn't want the world to develop in the direction he least wants to see.

Derek is a pure military fan, in the eyes of military fans, the emergence of the atomic bomb and precision guidance technology is simply the end of the art of war, since then the war has become boring, either each other 800 miles away to refrain from throwing missiles, or a brainless leader, with nuclear weapons with everyone to play.

I want a giant ship cannon! I want a gundam! I throw nuclear bombs and play with yarn!

Of course, the main reason is that Derek has discovered the magic that pervades this world, and although it is unclear what it is until now, one thing is certain, all indications are that it is undoubtedly a high-energy, harmless radioactive element for carbon-based life, and extremely unstable!

If it really comes out, it is very likely that some strange reaction will happen, and it is not impossible to destroy the entire wizarding world, so since discovering this possibility, Derek immediately decided to bury it in the deepest corner of his heart, absolutely not.

"Hans boy also said that the young master has always said that he wants to grow a mushroom for His Majesty the King to see or something, young master, does His Majesty the King like mushrooms very much......?

"No need," Derek shuddered in fright, no wonder he always felt that Fermi's name sounded a little familiar, could it not be familiar?, the father of atomic energy in his previous life, the head of the Manhattan Project, "What's going on with these little craters, I remember that the explosion of a cloudburst bomb only produced combustion and shock waves. ”

Master Einstein pointed to a shy and glasses-wearing short, stocky goblin and said: "Oh, this is Master Zola's suggestion, add another layer of outer grams to the outside of the cloud burst bomb, and fill it with steel balls in the middle, in addition, about soldiers, Master Zora also has an idea I want to communicate with you, young master." ”

What? Hydra is coming, too? Mess with me?

"Young master, I have an idea, what do you think of the artificial puppet soldiers? they will not be afraid and tired, the most important thing is to absolutely obey orders...... " said the shy little fat goblin.

Fortunately, it wasn't a super soldier or a clone project, Derek decided to try the weapon first, but we could talk about it later, "I'm very interested in this idea, you write a plan, how about I give you manpower and funding?"

"Thank you, young master. Master Zola said gratefully.

"Master Einstein, I can't wait, where do we start?" Derek said excitedly.

"First of all, young master, you said that the anti-infantry armament, we tried to produce two models according to the young master's ideas, namely the Gatling machine gun and the Mark machine gun, I really don't understand why the young master gave them such a name......

In the midst of Master Einstein's chatter, Derek casually picked up a Gatling gun and fired at a distant target.

Da Da Da ~ A burst of bullets swept by, and there were several more bullet holes on the wooden large animal target, but there were more bullets on the protective circle in the back, and sure enough, the accuracy was still too poor, no wonder the Mark Secret Machine Gun couldn't compete at the beginning.

There are many friends who learned about this weapon through the game and always thought that this machine gun appeared very late, and even many people thought that it was made after World War II.

In fact, it was even more than ten years earlier than the appearance of the Mark, but due to its bulkiness, slow rate of fire, and the instability of manual rotation, it was gradually eliminated by the Mark, and it was not until later that it returned to the battlefield with the progress of materials science and the application of small motors.

The magic modification in Derek's hand obviously has the same problem, and the Gatling rate of the special version of the Earth Spirit Research Armor that still uses the hand-cranked mode is not ideal.

Da Da Da ...... Sure enough, the rate of fire and accuracy of the Mark-Pyre machine gun were much stronger, but perhaps because of the caliber, the power was a little weaker.

"Master, have you decided which one to choose?" asked Master Einstein.

Derek didn't answer, to be honest, both weapons were good, but he still couldn't choose "After this, what should I try next?"

"The following is the anti-Warcraft armament, we have made a total of three, namely, the revolver-type grenade launcher, which can fire armor-piercing and high-explosive shells, the Iron Fist individual bazooka, although it can only be loaded with a single shot, but it is very powerful, and finally, the Barrett anti-materiel sniper rifle, which uses special ammunition ......"

Boom! Boom!

Derek almost loves the explosion of this heavy fire weapon, as a Celestial Empire person in his previous life, you must know that there is no chance to touch guns at all, let alone guns now, there is no shortage of cannons!

"Finally, it's a melee weapon, sorry young master, I couldn't make the kind of lightsaber you wanted, but we also have two pieces of equipment for you to choose from, a chainsaw sword with magic power and a thermal axe. ”

However, as if he hadn't heard, Derek was intoxicated by the happy fantasy of a Gatling in his left hand, a grenade in his right hand, and a rocket launcher on his shoulder, when Master Einstein's obnoxious voice rang out, instantly pouring cold water on Derek.

"Young Master, I have to remind you that although these weapons come from your genius design, their cost is not cheap, and it is extremely difficult to manufacture, the cost of machine gun bullets alone has reached thirty copper coins per round, and the others are even more expensive! Not to mention some of them, young master, you worked hard just now, and the ammunition money alone cost almost fifty gold coins!"

Master Einstein's stingy nature out of goblin instinct attacked, but Derek had to face this problem, this is just himself, if according to his original plan, the magic knight is organized into a team of three, and each team is equipped with a group, then Derek will go bankrupt after almost 10,000 battles!

Derek instantly changed his name to Derek Grandet.

"So, in addition to your equipment plan, young master, we have also prepared another option for young master. At this moment, Derek felt that the voice of Master Einstein was like heaven!
