"Sorry to keep you waiting," Li Xiang said apologetically to Number One as he walked out of the shop with a large bag of components.
Number One shook her head and said, "Master Li Xiang, where are we going next?"
The fact that Li Xiang was able to buy components from that person showed that he was not an ordinary person. Number One gradually gave up on her original thoughts and started to serve him with all her heart.
"I'm going back to rest. I'll have to trouble you to continue shopping with me tomorrow." Li Xiang's mind was filled with the design concepts he had discussed with Ye Yu. He was not in the mood to think about purchasing equipment. After he finished speaking, he walked towards the lounge.
Starting from the 21st floor, every floor had its own lounge. The environment and other aspects were better than the lower floors, but the energy consumption was also higher.
He walked into the lounge and lowered his head to think. Suddenly, he noticed that Number One had followed him in.
"Hmm?" He looked at Number One in confusion.
Number One's cheeks were slightly red. She slowly closed the door and suddenly unbuttoned the front of her shirt. Li Xiang was startled. Only then did he remember what Ye Yu said before he left.
"Master Li Xiang, I, I have to live with you …" Number One's appearance and appearance were inclined towards the style of an older sister. At this moment, she was showing the attitude of a shy little girl, which actually had a different style.
He was stunned and quickly waved his hand.
"Uh, I'm not in the mood tonight." Li Xiang was not a conservative person. However, he already had someone he liked. He did not want to mess around with this kind of thing. Moreover, Ye Tong's matter was like a Sword of Damocles hanging over his head. He was not in the mood to have fun.
Number One's eyes were wide open. This was the first time she had been directly rejected by someone. Her appearance, figure, and skills were all top-notch. In the past, there had been countless competitors who wanted to get close to her, but she had always been the one to reject others. She had never had the experience of being rejected.
She did not know whether to laugh or cry. She had made up her mind to spend the night with Li Xiang, but this brat had directly rejected her. She had been constantly conflicted on the way here.
"You sleep in the living room and I'll sleep in the bedroom. That's all. Goodbye." Li Xiang dashed into the bedroom, leaving Number One standing alone in the living room, feeling confused.
The lounge was very large, and even the living room was more luxurious than the average room. However, Number One couldn't help but laugh at his strange way of thinking. What an interesting young man.
Inside the room.
Li Xiang shook his head and got rid of all his messy thoughts. He took out a pen, paper, and metal workbench and began to think of a new Black Serpent blueprint.
After his conversation with Ye Yu, he realized that the Black Snake had many shortcomings in design and practical application. After all, it was his first time designing a gun, and he was still too inexperienced.
Although Ye Yu was not a real gun designer and was only a gun maker, his 30 years of hands-on experience made him much better than Li Xiang. The points he raised were all of the most important.
Recalling every sentence and point Ye Yu had said, Li Xiang's pen did not stop. With the help of various tools, he quickly drew up a rough sketch.
Although he lacked experience, his talent was indeed shocking. It was not difficult for him to draw inferences about other things. Combined with Ye Yu's suggestions, the concept of this new gun gradually took shape. However, the more he thought about it, the more the gun's direction deviated from the original design of the Black Snake.
Two hours later, Li Xiang looked at the blueprints all over the floor and the pile of discarded materials on the metal workbench. He felt both mentally and physically exhausted, and he kept rubbing his eyes.
Designing gun blueprints consumed a lot of mental energy, and it was even more exhausting than fighting. Even he would find it difficult to concentrate so much on thinking for a few hours.
Just as he was resting, a strange light suddenly flashed in his mind. Following that, the original Black Serpent blueprint unexpectedly entered the rows of gray grids. The eye-catching white was in stark contrast to the gray basic steam pistol blueprint in the first grid.
Back then, he hadn't put the Black Snake blueprint here. The reason was simple. The Black Snake was his design, and he didn't need to use Origin Substance to master it. Now, however, it had actually entered the box on its own.
Just like before, a small, light red plus sign appeared in the upper right corner of the box. Could it be that he could use Origin Substance to master the blueprint he had designed?
Li Xiang's heart was filled with questions.
He currently had 73.6% of the Origin Substance. The Origin Substance provided by the attribute-less resonance stone had already been absorbed, and there was still some left over from Ye Yu's shop.
With so much Origin Substance, it shouldn't be a problem to give it a try, right?
As he thought this, he silently pressed the small, light red plus sign.
Then, the small white box suddenly flickered, and the color slowly turned agate green. It was particularly eye-catching among the gray and white boxes.
A huge amount of information crazily surged into Li Xiang's mind. That amount of information was simply too much. If he hadn't known about his brain's magic circuits beforehand, he might have been turned into an idiot!
Too dangerous!
This information wasn't given to Li Xiang without considering whether or not he had the ability to instantly absorb it. This ability allowed him to completely analyze blueprints and knowledge in an instant, which was equivalent to completing several years of homework in one go. It was easy to imagine how much of a burden it would place on his brain.
If it weren't for the fact that his physical body was outstanding and his foundation solid, the impact of this information would have easily damaged his brain.
Li Xiang felt a lingering fear in his heart. He glanced at the gray-white scale. The Origin Substance had actually dropped to 61.2%. The amount of Origin Substance he had consumed this time was comparable to the amount he had consumed when he had received eleven books in one go!
In addition, after 50%, the Origin Substance would become even more condensed, which meant that the amount of Origin Substance consumed would be even greater.
However, when he thought back to all the information that had entered his mind, he knew that it was all worth it.
Too worth it!
[Black Snake X, White Snake X Blueprint], Quality: Excellent
[Basic Steam Pistol Blueprint], Quality: Trash
[Encyclopedia of Gun Structure Theory], Quality: Normal
.....
When he touched the small boxes, row after row of steam characters appeared. They were descriptions that he had never seen before.
Previously, the steam characters would only react to mechanical devices. Normally, they would give a detailed description and a durability rating.
Now, however, there was also a quality rating.
However, as far as the eye could see, all of the quality ratings were trash.
"The gray ones are trash, the white ones are normal, and the green ones are excellent." Li Xiang immediately understood how the quality ratings were categorized. More accurate information would allow him to better understand the quality of the mechanical device.
This Black Snake X, White Snake X was the upgraded version of the Black Snake that he had previously designed. Because he had suddenly come up with the idea of creating two guns, he had also been thinking about helping Ming Xu create a bullet gun. However, he had never come into contact with two guns before. Even after spending two hours, he still hadn't been able to complete the design.
He hadn't expected that after using this ability, he would be able to integrate his thoughts and everything else. It was simply inconceivable.
"This is like a processing accelerator. It integrates my thoughts and accelerates the production of the finished product, reducing the amount of time that should have been wasted." Li Xiang concluded. This ability was based on himself. If one looked closely at the blueprint, they would be able to tell that every bit of it was Li Xiang's idea and design.
However, this ability allowed him to integrate all of his scattered thoughts, saving him the time to integrate them himself. The energy source used was the Origin Substance liquid.
At the same time, the completed blueprint would be deeply engraved in his mind, becoming a part of his knowledge. The knowledge and experience generated from the blueprint would also be fed back to him. This was also why Li Xiang's brain almost didn't have enough capacity.
Not only was this a processing accelerator, but it could also speed up his learning!
It allowed him to save who knew how many years of research time that he should have spent in the future.
Li Xiang sighed with emotion. His thinking was indeed correct. This ability was heaven-defying. It wasn't purely about using the Origin Substance liquid in battle. Even though throwing it all out could be as earth-shattering as when he had dealt with the Kuang Tie, it was just a way for a nouveau riche to spend money.
This was the true use of this ability!
He turned around to look at the new blueprint.
Black Snake X and White Snake X were a pair of twin guns. Their designs were very similar, one black and one white. The black one was like a venomous snake hidden in the night, causing people's hearts to palpitate. The white one was like a python hissing under the scorching sun, causing people to feel terrified.
One was normal, one was strange, one was dark, one was bright. Wasn't this just him and Ming Xu?
At the same time, probably because of his impression of them, Black Snake X's appearance was exquisite and gorgeous, like a work of art. On the other hand, White Snake X was majestic, simple, and bold. It vaguely corresponded to the Dong Ling Clan and the Bai Clan.
The more Li Xiang looked at them, the more satisfied he became. Unfortunately, the parts he had before were far from enough. Tomorrow, when he went to purchase other equipment, he would ask Ye Yu about it. However, he firmly believed. As long as he could create these twin guns, his combat ability would definitely skyrocket!
The only pity was that he had used up so much Origin Substance liquid. He didn't know how long it would take to reach 100%.
In addition, Li Xiang had another guess about this ability, which was that it could grow. Why hadn't something like this happened before? When he thought about it carefully, the change had only occurred after he had obtained those eleven books, studied them, and talked to Ye Yu about it.
In other words, as he grew, this ability would also grow.
Then, in the future, when he learned more, would his blueprints have a chance to advance to a higher quality?
Just thinking about it made him feel incredibly excited. He felt as if a brand new world and path were opening up for him. This was a path that other Gunners had never walked before.
