Chapter 240: Rewriting the history of inventions
There was a metal target suspended in the wide open Yun Sect testing grounds.
The target was created from an iron alloy with a melting point of over three thousand degrees, far surpassing normal metals.It was around four times harder than normal iron and was the most common material used to make armours for soldiers.
The metal’s thickness was more than ten centimeters, around six times thicker than normal armours and helmets.
If a cultivator at the 3rd Awakened Soul Layer did not have any special defensive cultivation techniques, their defense would be around the same level.
Chu Tian had specially made this target just to test the might of the new weapon.If the Source Energy Pistol could deal enough damage to this target, this meant that Chu Tian’s weapon could kill any soldier and even had the ability to harm a cultivator at the 3rd Awakened Soul Layer.This would be a milestone setting large invention!
“Please stand back, otherwise you’ll be injured.”
Chu Tian was wearing a set of protective gloves and had released the Starlight Immortal Body to protect himself.
After all, this gun was newly made and was only a test product.Chu Tian did not specialize in making weapons and if itdid explode, then it would cripple his hands, so he had to properly protect himself.
“Look carefully!”
Chu Tian raised the Source Energy Pistol and aimed it at the metal target before pulling the trigger.
A dazzling light came from the gun’s muzzle.What shocked everyone was that the stable Source Energy Battery was quickly depleted.The runes on the gun light up and several source energy arrays began to turn, condensing a terrifying power.
Peng!
A flash of light appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.
The metal target was sent flying by the explosive might and four-five red hot pieces fell to the ground.The part in the center that had been hit showed signs of being melted!
Everyone was stunned staring at it!
A target that was six times thicker than normal armour was instantly torn apart!
What kind of power was this?
Instantly melting an alloy that had a melting point of three thousand degrees.
What kind of energy was this?
The ball of source energy released from the Source Energy Pistol had a strength that was equal to an attack from a cultivator at the 4th Awakened Soul Layer.The energy instantly reached a temperature that was over ten thousand degrees!
Everyone was petrified.
“So strong!So strong!”Meng Yingying had the strongest mind and recovered the quickest.She immediately applauded and shouted, “Chu Tian, you have to make one for me!”
“God!”Meng Qingwu’s beautiful eyes went wide, “How is this possible?”
Yun Tianhe found this unbelievable, “How did you achieve this?This might is just too strong!If this weapon could be mass produced, then just thinking about it would fill a person with fear!”
The one that was most shocked was the Divine Wind Marquis.
“This, this…..isn’t a dream!”
The Divine Wind Marquis walked over in a daze to the broken metal target.He didn’t care about how hot the debris was as he picked it up.Feeling a sharp pain, he knew that this wasn’t a dream!
His wide open eyes stared at the iron allow fragment, as if he could not believe the fact in front of him.
Damn!
Why couldn’t this fellow be born a few years earlier?
If he could have been born earlier, the Southern Summer Country wouldn’t have had to sacrifice so many lives on the battlefield!
The entirety of the Divine Wind Marquis’ direct family died on the battlefield.His big brother, little brother, father, and even his wife had all died to the spirit beasts!
On the final battlefield, his wife had used her life to attract the attention of the spirit beasts which allowed the Divine Wind Marquis to survive and destroy the spirit beasts’ army in one fell swoop, allowing him to become one of the Eight Marquises!
The honour of being a Marquis, how many people dream of this!
However for the Divine Wind Marquis, to trade the lives of his family and wife for it, it was nothing more than a heavy burden!
It was because of this that after the Divine Wind Marquis isolated himself in Central State, he no longer seeked fame and fortune, living an easy life.
If this weapon could be distributed to the Southern Summer Country’s army.
Then would the Southern Summer Country have to pay with such heavy casualties?
Would the spirit beast kingdom act so arrogantly and approach their borders like this?
Everyone looked at the Divine Wind Marquis who was dejected for a while and then excited for a while.Sometimes he was talking to himself and sometimes he broke out in laughter.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
What happened to the Divine Wind Marquis?
Could it be that he couldn’t handle this stimulation and it had turned him crazy!
The Divine Wind Marquis took a long time to come back to his sense and also understood why Chu Tian was so assured the Calm Martial Ruler would help him.
The Calm Martial Ruler was the military god of the Southern Summer Country and the commander in chief of the northern spirit beast front, battling the spirit beasts for many years now.For the Calm Martial Ruler, this Source Energy Weapon was more precious than anything!
“This is an invention that will change history!”The Divine Wind Marquis then asked, “When can this weapon be mass produced?”
“Not right now.The barrel melted and the rune was destroyed, so this front part needs to be strengthened.”Chu Tian shot it once, the front part of the pistol had changed shape, “I have to find a better material for this.As for production cost, it doesn’t cost much, so it can be mass produced in a factory.The key part is that the source energy arrays need to be hand engraved.”
The Divine Wind Marquis was filled with excitement.
If this kind of weapon could be mass produced, it would definitely change the northern battlefront.
