Chapter 495: Heavenly Mandate Weapon
In the past two or three years, Wren has not only been working on the downsizing of the Titan Forge but many other things, one of which is the Blaster, second only to the Titan Forge in terms of time and energy, which started much earlier and eventually yielded fruitful results.
The Blaster looks like a submachine gun with two circles enlarged, but the two operate in very different ways, and their power is very different!
Its biggest difference is the ammunition.
A huge ammunition with a caliber of more than two centimeters appeared in Wren's hand, also five centimeters long, thicker than an adult's thumb, comparable to the ammunition of a shotgun.
The reddish shell is made of phlogiston, which is hard and light, and the phlogiston still acts as a fuse, but it is no longer the propellant in the previous caseless bomb that ignites, but a solid propellant hidden at the bottom of the warhead, which explodes violently and launches the heavy warhead.
This is also the reason why the blaster fires with a deafening sound of gunfire.
The propellant in the rear half of the warhead is a peculiar metal, which Wren can't name, and is extracted from a green ore. According to its characteristics, Wren speculated that it was likely to be "beryllium" in the previous life, and after adding a catalyst, it could be used as fuel for rockets at high temperature and high pressure, releasing huge heat to form thrust.
Under the huge thrust, the speed of the alloy slug made of blue iron skyrockets several times, and it has terrifying lethality, easily penetrating metal plate armor.
In addition, the warhead is equipped with a hybrid high-energy explosive charge that produces a devastating explosion when the bullet hits the target or is subjected to pressure.
This is the "Octotojin" that Wren has been groping for more than two years and just made last month, which is the explosive with the best comprehensive performance in the previous life, and the power is half higher than that of the "King of Explosives" of TNT, and it can be used as an additive for propellants, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
As a result, Wren created a terrifying bullet with a high rate of fire, high penetration, and high explosive energy, and named it "Burst Bomb"!
He controlled the charge with precision, and after repeated tests, the power of a burst bomb was roughly equivalent to that of the three-ring spell "Flame Orb".
The Flame Orb consumes the same amount of soul power as the Three-Ring Fireball Technique, but its fame is much smaller than that of the Fireball Technique, and its killing range is smaller, no more than two meters at most.
However, the flame temperature and lethality generated by the Flame Orb are more than those of the Fireball Technique within two meters.
Exploding Bullets are extremely similar to Flame Orbs, and can even be said to be identical, but the range, speed, and frequency of Burst Bullets are much higher than those of Flame Beads, and the soul power consumption is only a few tenths of that of Flame Beads.
Wren put the blaster into "burst" mode, aimed at the target next to him and pulled the trigger.
Boom Boom Boom ......
The muzzle of the blaster erupted with reddish flames.
A series of violent explosions echoed through the mechanical alchemy chamber, as if standing next to a continuously firing cannon, and the eardrums tingled. The recoil of the blaster caused a shock wave, and the walls made of boulders roared and shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
The three targets at the indoor range were shattered in an instant, and deep craters were punched out of the stone walls, and the rubble was everywhere, and the smoke and dust billowed out, as if they had been bombarded by artillery.
In fact, the blaster fires a small cannonball!
Wren stopped the test shot.
In just three seconds, he unleashed fifteen bursting bullets, each of which was as powerful as the three-ring spell "Flame Orb", and the temperature around him rose by a few degrees.
The blaster also became hot, the heavy body of the gun was extremely strong, without a trace of looseness, and the cooling rune circle engraved on the inside took effect automatically, reducing the heated barrel, making a sizzling sound, and wisps of white smoke came out of the muzzle.
"It's all money!"
Wren sighed lightly, the blaster is good for everything, the biggest drawback is that the bullet is too expensive.
The cost of a burst bomb is roughly a gold shield!
In burst mode, 300 bullets can be fired in one minute at the rate of fire of the blaster, which is 300 gold shields, and each bullet fired emits the smell of gold shields.
To shoot a gun is to make money!
Even if he has money, he can't withstand such consumption, if the four companies of Ultramarines have a blaster in their hands, completely unlimited, and fire as much as they want, they can bankrupt themselves in a few hours......
And that's not even counting the cost of the blaster.
A blaster is made of about 5,000 gold guilders, more than half of which is worth its dimensional magazine, which is also one of Wren's research achievements, with a maximum ammunition capacity of 12,000 rounds, and is divided into five independent spaces inside, which can be loaded with five different ammunition and can be switched at will when firing.
A Dimensional Magazine full of ammo plus a blaster is worth nearly 18,000 gold guilders, which is enough to buy a relatively mediocre epic weapon!
Wren's own labor costs are not counted.
It has been more than a month since he completed the design of the blaster and he has not yet implemented it for the Ultramarine, just thinking about how to reduce costs.
In addition, the structure of the blasting bomb is complex, and the manufacture is laborious and time-consuming.
Wren and Reslin, the main body and the avatar use "activated metal" together, working overtime day and night, and can only produce a maximum of 3,000 bursting bombs a day, which is only enough for a blaster to fire for ten minutes.
Submachine guns also consume shellless bullets, and more than 1,200 gun-winged knights, each with one hand, have to shoot out tens of thousands of bullets every day of training alone. In the past two years, in addition to meditating and building spell models, Reslin has spent the rest of his time making bullets and repairing submachine guns, and has completely become a tool man.
This is also the reason why Wren changed his mind and decided to cooperate with the mechanical union in the production of submachine guns.
The first is to avoid outsiders from coveting submachine guns; and the second is to reduce their own manufacturing burdens.
When talking to Acaland just now, Wren didn't say all his thoughts, he was going to design a production line that would allow a small amount of labor to make bullets in large quantities, but the problem was how to control phlogiston to form cartridge casings.
At present, only "Activated Metal" can do this, and he has not yet found an alternative, only a few eyebrows, and is not sure if it will succeed.
If you go one step further and hand over the synthesized propellant to the mechanical union, sooner or later someone will make pure gunpowder bullets that will spread among ordinary people and impact the pattern of the transcendent world.
"This problem is not easy to solve!"
Wren frowned, feeling tricky.
In the future, the army under his command is getting bigger and bigger, it is impossible to provide logistics supplies by himself, the entire military industrial system is maintained on his own person, too tired not to mention, if he has an accident and can't get out, Glamorgan's extraordinary army will collapse overnight.
But this question is no less difficult than the Titan engine, and there is no answer for a while.
"It's a long way to go......"
Wren thought about it for a long time, and was just about to put away the blaster when he saw Sicarius poking his head at the door of the mechanical alchemy room and asked loudly, "Boss, is something wrong?"
"It's okay, just testing a new gun. ”
Wren could see at a glance that Sicarius was knowingly asking.
Each symbiote can sense the state of the original body at all times, and the mechanical alchemy room is equipped with a soundproof magic circle, and only the vibration of the shooting of one branch is transmitted, and this guy Sicarius happens to be on duty in the castle and immediately senses the opportunity.
Ever since he saw the prototype of a blaster three years ago, he's been obsessed with it.
"New guns!"
Sicarius's eyes lit up, and when he saw the blaster in Wren's hand, he immediately took off his helmet and ran in, and asked expectantly: "Boss, this is what you said before, right, it's already usable?"
Seeing his curious appearance, Wren couldn't even take his eyes off it, and said with a smile: "You came just in time, come and try your hand." ”
He handed the blaster over.
Sicarius felt different from the start, the heavy body of the gun was just right for his strength, and he could use it to smash people even if he couldn't fire.
The handle on the back of the gun is just the right size, and it feels great in the hand, and when you hold it, you have a strange feeling, this is a weapon tailored for yourself, like a part of the body, as if the extreme warrior exists to be able to use it one day, and it matches it perfectly.
This is the Destiny Weapon of the Ultramarine!
He didn't rush to shoot, but carefully admired the blaster in his hand, his eyes full of intoxication.
Weighing less than a hundred pounds, the gun can be held in one hand, and like Rambo's gun, it is cast from a single piece of magic alloy, and the only thing that can be removed is the curved magazine.
The barrel is large and thick, which means strong firepower!
The silver-gray body of the spear is engraved with the golden emblem of the Augustan family, surrounded by red runes and energy lines, and penetrates deep into the body of the spear, which is very extraordinary.
The design of the new gun was domineering and ferocious, and Sicarius immediately fell in love with it.
He suddenly felt inexplicable excitement and excitement, blood in his brain was rushing, and he raised his blaster and pulled the trigger on the target wall that had been blasted.
Click!
There was a soft mechanical sound, but no bullets were fired.
Sicarius blinked, pulled the trigger a few more times, and clicked a few times without an answer. He turned his head back in confusion and asked depressedly, "Boss, is this broken?"
"It shouldn't be bad, it's one thing I've forgotten. ”
Wren took back the blaster and said with a smile: "It can only be used by the people I designate, even if it falls into the hands of others, it can't shoot bullets without my permission." ”
"It's so amazing!"
Sicarius's eyes widened, completely ununderstanding how the boss did it.
Wren didn't explain, and said that Sicarius didn't understand either.
This secret lock is his original technology, and a "spirit stone" that can record soul waves is embedded in the inside of the dimensional magazine, which is connected with the rune circle of the magazine to form a key function similar to that of the previous life. When the blaster is wielded, when the trigger is pulled, a trace of soul power is drained to unlock the dimensional magazine, from which the bullets are released.
This trace of soul power is not much, and it must match the soul wave frequency recorded in advance in the carved spirit stone before you can use the blaster gun.
If the soul wave frequency does not match, no matter how many times you pull the trigger, it is useless.
Even if you destroy the dimensional magazine, you can't get the bullets.
A carved spirit stone can record up to twenty different soul wave frequencies, and the permission to enter new wave frequencies only belongs to the first soul wave frequency, which is decided when making the dimensional magazine, that is, Wren himself, and no one else can add, delete or replace.
The Carved Spirit Stone is also a soul stone, but it is not commonly used and has a medium value.
Regarding the function of the Engraved Spirit Stone, as well as the secret of the Soul Wave, it is impossible to crack the Blaster and Dimensional Magazine unless someone can also have the Soul Eye.
Wren is extremely confident in this, and is not afraid of the blaster falling into the hands of outsiders.
He held the blaster in one hand and pressed it on Sicarius's body with the other, and entered Sicarius's soul wave on the carved spirit stone inside the magazine, which was completed in just a few seconds.
"You try again. Wren laughed.
Suspiciously, Sicarius grabbed the blaster and fired at the wall, this time finally reacting.
Rumble!
The thunderous sound of the gunfire startled Sicarius, and the huge recoil almost made him lose his gun, and he took two steps back before stopping.
"Gilleman is on top!"
"This ...... It's an artifact!"
Sicarius was dumbfounded, looking at the hole in the opposite wall, and then at the blaster in his hand, almost in disbelief. You know, it's been three years since he was promoted to a legendary warrior, and he just got to level 11 not long ago, and his strength element reached level eight, and he almost couldn't hold it when he fired the gun!
The power of this gun is many times higher than that of Rambo's gun!
Boom Boom!
Sicarius couldn't wait to fire a few shots in succession, and the deafening sound of gunfire did not make him feel any discomfort, but instead boiled with blood.
He has been using firearms for several years, and he has also learned a lot of knowledge about firearms, the bullet speed of the blaster, the recoil of the gun, the explosive power, and the soul power consumed per round of ammunition is lower than that of the Rambo gun, all of which shocked him incomparably.
Without Wren's reminder, he switched to burst mode.
In an instant, the sound of a huge gunfire became even more violent, almost like thunder exploding in my ears.
The blaster shot out tongues of fire more than a meter long, the surrounding temperature soared, the heat wave was rolling, and the recoil from the barrel of the gun continued, and Sicarlius's right hand had to be held with all his strength to ensure that the muzzle of the gun was stable and not to be shocked backwards.
Bang......
After more than ten seconds of strafing, the stone wall more than three meters thick on the opposite side of the shooting range was actually shot through, and half of the wall collapsed, alarming the extreme warriors standing guard outside, and rushed in.
"That's it. ”
Wren told Sicarius to stop and waved for the Ultramarines at the door to go out.
However, these extreme warriors are all knowledgeable, and at a glance they saw the blaster in Sicarus's hand, as well as the collapsed stone wall, and suddenly their eyes were straight, and they looked at Wren with a "I want to try" expression written on their faces.
"Hahaha......" Sicarius shouted happily, "Boss, when will I be given a blaster? With it, I dare to slay the dragon alone!"
Wren couldn't hear it.
Sicarius is too floating, and with the power of a blaster gun, he can create a big threat when he encounters a dragon above the legend, but it is still difficult to break through the dragon scale and dragon skin, and it is only possible to shoot four or five shots in a row at the same point.
"I built a blaster. Wren said to the hungry Ultramarines, "It costs a gold shield for one piece of ammunition, and I can't make much, so you can wait." ”
"So expensive!"
Sicarius was shocked.
The strafing shot he had just fired and knocked out at least fifty pieces of ammunition, that is, fifty gold shields, which could buy a lot of food and supplies for the tribe, and he suddenly felt very distressed, shrunk his neck a little weakly, and quickly returned the blaster to Wren, and said with a dry smile: "Boss, I didn't mean to." ”
The other Ultramarines were also taken aback, and their desire for blasters subsided quite a bit.
"Don't worry, I won't let you pay, sooner or later I will give each brother a handful. Wren put away his blaster and said with a smile.
"Long live the boss!"
The Ultramarines shouted in unison, and Sicarius shouted even louder, his face full of eagerness and anticipation.
