Beginning with the Ubume Bird Chapter 286

Chapter 286: Chapter 12 Crazy Shocker

Li Yan had long stopped pursuing the accuracy of firearms, for with his superficial understanding of war guns, he couldn't bring out the power of these fine weapons anyway.

He could also give up on the requirement for range, for he did not lack means of assault at present.

What Li Yan wanted was still more pure and direct destructive power.

Even though the Tiger Head Great Spear was enough to crack the Yan Fu fruit core, it did not mean Li Yan's destructive power was truly sufficient.

Gunblade, Blood Dip, Hidden Flight, the combat techniques Li Yan took pride in, all assumed that the enemy possessed a body of flesh and blood. Even if the enemy truly was as hard as alloy, or could even turn into water and fire, they would completely collapse before the power of Blood Dip.

However, renowned for breaking magic, slaying Filthy Gods, killing demons, exorcising spirits, and corroding Dragon Tiger Qi, Blood Dip had one fatal flaw–it only affected living beings.

In a world filled with tin can adversaries, even Li Yan often found himself at a loss. Striking tanks with heavy guns did not only seem as ludicrous as the Boxer Rebellion, but Li Yan's palms also couldn't bear it.

Therefore, what Li Yan needed wasn't some famous craftsman's precise fine gun, but rather a high-powered firearm specifically designed to blast through iron armor.

That is to say, the so-called anti-materiel firearms.

This kind of gun was generally very expensive.

Except for this one.

What Li Yan referred to was an extremely oddly shaped firearm,

It was just over forty centimeters in length, with an interweave of brass and silver, and a barrel diameter exceeding fifteen centimeters, almost the size of a large apple!

This made the entire gun look top-heavy and oddly misshapen, similar in design to the early German hand cannons.

Especially since this gun also bore stains and obvious signs of wear, it looked particularly shabby and ugly among a variety of firearms.

“This gun…” Wei Dan seemed like she wanted to laugh, tilting her head: “It's also quite suitable for you.”

[Crazy Shocker]

Category: Shotgun

Quality: Rare (Damaged)

The drum can hold 108 rounds, and pulling the trigger will discharge all bullets at once, enough to cause fatal damage to any known armor!

But even when it was intact, there was still a considerable chance of the barrel bursting.

Note: This is the wild flight of fancy created by Shock, the eventual chief designer of the Wild Yak Series, after the night when he transitioned from boy to man. This one-of-kind piece was dismissed by the Raine Brothers for production due to the “absolutely no accuracy, too much recoil, laughable range, too much load on the barrel, few uses before it is scrapped.” comments. Due to its age, it is already damaged.

Boss, guess where I got the inspiration for designing this gun?

-Shock

“If you want this thing, eight hundred is enough, but don't say I didn't warn you, this thing is broken, it doesn't shoot bullets.”

Li Yan picked up this odd-looking “hand cannon” and without looking up, asked, “Do you have any disassembled firearm parts here?”

“Of course, we have machines and custom parts won't be a problem, but there might not be enough time.”

Li Yan quickly dismantled the [Crazy Shocker] into pieces.

“That's not necessary. I'll do it myself if needed. Take me there.”

Li Yan's mouth curled into an indescribable smile.

“Your Special Expertise: Magic Motion Technology (50%) is activated!”

“Given enough parts, you can modify any electronic product, firearm, or even large industrial machinery, but the results are unknown, it might be scrapped.”

After about four busy hours, during which there were several mistakes that nearly led the gun to be completely scrapped, but bumbling through, and with the help of the people at Kuang Zhuoma who processed a few special parts for a trial, Li Yan ultimately still succeeded in bringing out the effects of Magic Motion Technology.

Li Yan picked up the [Crazy Shocker] once again, and it seemed not much had changed from the beginning. Only a few worn parts were replaced, and it had been polished. Besides, on the barrel as thick as an apple, a layer of black steel ring had been added.

[Crazy Shocker] (modified)

Type: Scattergun

Quality: Rare

The magazine can hold 108 rounds of high-explosive scatter shells, which can be discharged all at once by pulling the trigger, causing fatal damage to any known armor!

Its recoil has become even more terrifying!

Now its range is only fifteen meters!

Note: This is the work of a naive pursuit of destructive power, disregarding everything else, but a simple otherworldly modification has transformed this gun.

To blow up Black Buddha with one shot… wait, how do I get close?

_The inner thoughts of a guy who failed to take on a heavy fighter.

“How much?”

After more than four hours of busy work, Li Yan let out a satisfied sigh and asked Wei Dan, who had been standing by his side for half the night, in a drowsy tone.

“Including labor and materials, three thousand four. On your next mission, you just need to scrounge up something to cover the costs.”

Wei Dan's face showed dark circles under his eyes, his expression a bit dull.

“Then thanks.”

Li Yan put away the gun, intending to take a nap in his room before the details of his assignment came in.

“Hold on~” Wei Dan frowned, his face thoughtful.

“Is there anything else?”

Li Yan asked as he turned around.

“…Ah, never mind.” Wei Dan yawned, shook his head with a smile: “I was actually thinking of taking a nap too, but I totally forgot after all that fuss.”

Li Yan paused for a moment, blurting out, “I thought you were…”

He caught himself in time, gave Wei Dan a long look, and said with a laugh, “Maybe some other time.”

“Sure.”

Wei Dan's tone was as casual as if discussing what to have for breakfast.

Li Yan walked out the door, murmuring to himself, “That's right, I'm in high demand…”

“I need you to give me an explanation.”

“I had too much to drink.”

Yin Xiong glared, his muscular arms crossed over his chest, “We're already short on manpower as it is; otherwise, we wouldn't be calling up people from outside of Kuang Zhuoma, but you've crippled Abaningma. That puts me in a tough spot.”

“I can do his part too, would that work?”

Yin Xiong was silent for a moment before saying, “The assignment is to clear the ruins of the city center around Great Demon Lake. Before the bitter winter, it was an important strategic base deployed by a certain superpower, but later it became a prime bombing target of the enemy forces, and the radiation is astonishingly high. Even third-tier soldiers must not take it lightly.”

“The armored vehicles from headquarters will arrive at nine o'clock, eighty people in total, led by ten third-tier special soldiers, this team is the core, and I'm also in it. In addition, including you, nineteen people, mixed with the direct guard and Wilderness Hunters, will be divided into ten groups to explore the periphery.”

“The known condition of the ruins is that they are occupied by a great number of living dead. These monsters can withstand continuous fire from automatic weapons, and they are very tough. As long as you can clear your assigned peripheral area, the mission will be considered complete. Any questions?”

“Not at all.”

Li Yan replied with a smile.
