11 PM.
"Hey, Junior Apprentice Brother, look at this." Ye Yu stretched lazily. Crafting the Hell Ghost had taken more time than he had expected, but he had finally finished it today. "And this."
He picked up the brand-new Hell Ghost from the metal workbench and placed it in front of Li Xiang. He then pulled out a backpack full of black bullets from his drawer. These were all part of his stockpile.
"So pretty." Li Xiang stopped what he was doing and caught the Hell Ghost. As soon as he touched the gun, he felt his hands sink. The heaviness was almost unreal. Most firearms were made with light weight to reduce the burden on the user. Very few were made with such a heavy weight.
He weighed it in his hand and found that it probably weighed more than a hundred kilograms. Such a heavy shotgun was comparable to some heavy machine guns. It was as if he was carrying a voluptuous young woman on his back every day. It had probably been greatly modified.
The gun's body was not smooth, but it had a nice texture to it. The butt of the gun was decorated with mink fur, and the unique three-canister system was installed inside the gun. It was not exposed to the outside.
Ye Yu's style of crafting was somewhat similar to Dong Ling's, but it was not as luxurious.
"Haha, do you feel it? This is the improved version of the Hell Ghost that I specially made for you." Ye Yu smiled proudly. This Ghoul was the one he was most satisfied with among all the Ghouls he had made so far. "I increased the mass of a few key parts and coated the outside with a layer of metal. This way, even with the strength of your fingers, it will be difficult to crush it in an instant."
"Also, the core part is this thick, dark body. Aren't the patterns on the outside very special?" Ye Yu smiled as he looked at Su Chen.
After being reminded by Ye Yu, Li Xiang suddenly understood. "Senior Apprentice Brother Ye, you used a special kind of metal. With such a tough outer shell, no wonder it's so heavy."
"That's right. I've thought about it. With your strength, this little bit of weight is nothing. However, with this, you should be able to use Gun Kata without any worries in battle." Ye Yu took out a yellowed book from the drawer. The words "Gun Kungfu" were written on the cover of the book.
Li Xiang immediately flipped through it.
This was the introductory chapter of Gun Kungfu, which was widely circulated in the market. However, any combat skill books could only be found in the black market before entering university. He was not the kind of person who frequented the black market, so naturally, he was not familiar with it.
Thinking back, Baimiya had used a heavy Origin Substance sword and a heavy-duty Origin Substance spear in battle. The heavy-duty Origin Substance spear in her hands was no less powerful than a normal cold weapon.
If firearms were to be used in close combat, then they naturally had to be heavy and sturdy.
"I'll give this to you. You're about to participate in the ultimate trial, so the more you learn, the more insurance you'll have." Ye Yu tossed the Gun Kungfu book to him. Li Xiang could easily find such a book if he put in some effort.
Li Xiang nodded his head in thanks and put away the Gun Kungfu book. His attention returned to the layers of bullets. These bullets were made of excellent quality, and he could feel their texture. They were completely different from the trash that could be found in the black market.
"Senior Brother Ye, the process of making bullets is …" Li Xiang threw out a few of his core doubts, and Ye Yu immediately answered them. He immediately understood that there was no difference between this world's bullet production and his previous world's!
The only difference was that this world had a higher level of special bullet production process.
"Yes. In theory, according to the process you mentioned, it is possible to mass produce bullets. However, I've never heard of the mechanical devices you mentioned." Ye Yu was shocked when he heard this. Li Xiang was only explaining a concept, but it made him feel that there was a possibility of mass production.
In this world, there were very few bullet producers. After all, there was not much demand for bullets. Currently, there was no way to mass produce special bullets. There were very few users of normal bullets, and there was enough on the market. A few individual producers were also able to handle large orders.
However, if there was really a way to mass produce bullets, perhaps this small market could be firmly grasped in the palm of his hand.
It was a pity that no one had researched this kind of mass production mechanism. He had tried it before, but he was not professional enough and was unable to develop it.
Li Xiang laughed in his heart. Of course you haven't heard of it. It was a mechanical device that he had developed in his previous world. It was specially made to mass produce high-quality bullets for tarot cards.
"I also don't know if it can be realized. In any case, it's just an idea that I came up with when I was bored. It will be done soon." He drew a rough diagram. For the time being, he could not give the complete blueprint to Ye Yu. Otherwise, it would be too amazing.
However, the diagram he drew was enough to prove its feasibility.
After Ye Yu saw it, he could not help but sigh. Had he really been a frog in a well for too long? Such a young genius had actually appeared in the outside world!
"It's possible, very possible! According to Junior Brother's idea, the possibility of it being realized is extremely high! " Ye Yu said excitedly. "However, since you haven't come up with a complete blueprint, I can't do anything for the time being. When the time comes, don't worry and leave it to me. I have a few good friends who also know about this. We are completely capable of dominating the bullet market."
Li Xiang nodded silently. For the time being, he did not care about dominating the market. What he needed was a stable and secret source of high-quality bullets. Not only him, but Ming Xu was also an expert in bullet guns. In the future, their consumption would definitely be huge. If they kept buying bullets of unknown origin from the black market, it would not be worth it in case something happened in battle.
He had too many trivial matters to deal with, and it was impossible for him to spend his time in the near future building a military factory for himself. He would consider Ye Yu's character for a period of time.
"Junior Brother, you give me a surprise every time you come. It's really the new generation surpassing the old. I have no choice but to be convinced." Ye Yu sat beside him and began to give him pointers.
The design of Black Snake X and White Snake X adhered to Li Xiang's usual philosophy. His wild imagination and incomparably precise thinking made Ye Yu's scalp tingle when he saw some of the details. A normal mechanic would probably be defeated at the sight of the blueprint, but Li Xiang had been calmly making it step by step. His composure was truly terrifying.
People with perseverance and neither arrogance nor impatience were the most terrifying.
In Li Xiang's eyes, it did not matter if he failed once or a hundred times. He could still slowly explore and continue to make it until he succeeded.
Time flew by, and after midnight, Ye Yu waved his hand to chase him away. Li Xiang could only reluctantly leave and prepare to visit again in the morning.
There was no one outside, and the countdown on the giant screen showed 166 hours, 45 minutes, and 22 seconds. Time was running out, and he had to hurry up to the next floor and reach the 50th floor before the countdown ended.
He carried You Gui and a large bag of bullets to the resting room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Number One sleeping on the sofa. She was in a deep sleep and did not notice Li Xiang at all.
Li Xiang looked at the blanket that was scattered all over the place and sighed. He freed a hand and covered her with it. At that moment, he suddenly remembered that when they lived in the basement, Ye Tong had the habit of kicking off the blanket every time she slept, and he would always wake up in the middle of the night to cover her.
Looking at Number One's face, he could not help but fall into a daze.
In this life, after coming to this world for so long, he still separated from Ye Tong due to various reasons. It was the same with Fei Yujing, and they could not be together. It seemed like he had given them a second chance, but he always felt that the trajectory of fate was still the same. If he was not careful, the things that he cherished would slip through his fingers.
However, now that he had the power, he would not easily give in to anyone or anything.
Li Xiang stood up and returned to his room. As soon as he left, Number One woke up. She burrowed into the blanket with only her head sticking out. She looked at Li Xiang's disappearing figure with a complicated expression. Her gaze was uncertain.
Once he returned to his room, Li Xiang tried to place the Gun Kungfu into the rows of boxes. Since reading books on guns was useful, would books on combat techniques be useful as well?
As he thought of this, a white light flashed, and the Gun Kungfu became part of one of the boxes. It was a gray trash grade, and did not consume much Origin Liquid to learn.
Unfortunately, he did not have enough relevant knowledge, so he could not upgrade it as simply as he did with blueprints. If he could, he would be able to come in contact with more advanced chapters. After all, only the introductory chapters were circulating on the market.
"If the Gun Kungfu works, then …" Li Xiang suddenly had an even bolder idea. He spread out a piece of paper and began to write down the main points of the Serpent Assassination Technique that Yu Yi had taught him.
During the second phase of training, he and Ming Xu had spent most of their time learning this technique. This was especially true for Ming Xu, who had a foundation in assassination techniques and was able to learn them with ease. In terms of actual combat, he was far better than Li Xiang.
Very quickly, an entire Serpent Assassination Technique manual was written down.
He organized it into a book and tried to place it into the gray box.
It was easier to place books that he had already learned. The Serpent Assassination Technique was white, normal grade, which meant that he had only learned it to this level. If it were Ming Xu, he would probably be able to reach excellent grade.
He still could not upgrade it.
He knew too little about assassination techniques. However, after placing it into the box, all the knowledge would automatically flow into his mind and become a knowledge base. It would be easier to use it.
Before going to bed, he opened the Polar night communicator as usual. There was a lot of messages that had accumulated throughout the day. He flipped through them and found a reply from the Night Guardian at the bottom!
