Chapter 359 Fixing
?"F-Fix the weaponry?" Theobold twitched his mouth, seemingly in a daze by Shi Tian's suggestion of his plight. The battle was happening right now, so just how long would he need to get it fixed?
Was he trying to fool him?
Or was he planning to have them all fixed once his soldiers had already fallen in the battle?
Nevertheless, Theobold managed to compose his emotion, subsiding the anger from within him.
"How long are you going to need to fix them, Nathan?" Theobold asked, his tone very mild– to the point that it was quite terrifying.
As for Vanessa, she was somewhat worried for Shi Tian. He was clearly testing Theobold's bottom line repeatedly.
"Mary, shouldn't you do something?" Vanessa whispered to Mary and asked her to defuse the situation. Her identity was special, so she couldn't afford to step in at the moment.
Meanwhile, Mary was still lost in thought, her eyes fixated on her Cellos device. It seemed as if she was trying to investigate something and all other noises were blocked off from her.
Seeing Mary's state, Vanessa realized it was dumb of her to ask her to intervene.
'Whatever, if Theobold is truly enraged and acts irrationally, then I'll just step in.' Vanessa exclaimed inwardly.
She truly wanted to intervene, but Shi Tian told her to trust him, so she could only wait by the sideline and see what kind of plan he was cooking up.
Let him cook!
"It won't take long, Commander Theobold." Shi Tian chuckled softly and responded. There was zero hint of fear in his tone.
"What do you mean by that?" Theobold continued to question, clearly wanting an estimated time and not some superficial words.
"10 minutes, that's all I need."
"10 minutes only?"
After all, the Pain Tolerance was granted to him when he was on the verge of dying, and when he was still in a deep slumber, it was the integrated chip that rebooted him back to life.
Arriving at one of the supporting soldiers, Shi Tian merely tapped on his soldier and waved his hand, a signal equivalent of telling him to fuck off.
The soldier was at first confused, before turning into rage for being rudely interrupted by some brat. He was busy assisting his fellow comrades, and Shi Tian was wearing normal clothes instead of a military uniform.
Just who does he think he was?
It was hard to blame the soldier for reacting so strongly since not everyone had seen or interacted with Shi Tian.
However, the soldier quickly calmed down when he heard a cough and realized Theobold was by the side.
Theobold made a side-eye gesture once he caught the soldier's attention, and simply tilted his head slightly to order the soldier to make way.
With the soldier promptly moved aside, Shi Tian ignored the soldier and kept his eyes on the weaponry.
"So this is the railgun blaster..." Shi Tian mumbled, having learned of the weaponry name because of the integrated chip.
The Railgun Blaster design had a sleek, ergonomic design, typically constructed from lightweight but highly durable alloys and reinforced polymers.
Its appearance was streamlined and sophisticated, featuring a blend of matte and metallic finishes.
The gun's structure contains intricate circuitry and power lines running along its frame, allowing it to harness immense electromagnetic energy.
This high-tech weapon operates by using a series of electromagnetic coils and conducting rails to accelerate solid metal or composite bullets.
When activated, a powerful electrical current is generated and directed through the coils, creating a powerful magnetic field. This magnetic field propels the bullets forward at tremendous velocities.
Admiring its design and operation function, Shi Tian proceeded to check on the ammunition, given that the ammunition was what caused the struggle to happen.
According to the information he had absorbed, the Railgun Blaster uses specialized, aerodynamically designed bullets made of advanced materials like depleted uranium, tungsten, or other dense alloys. These bullets are loaded into a magazine or an internal chamber, ready for firing.
Unsurprisingly, Shi Tian realized the bullets were made of uranium and not tungsten.
'Make sense... uranium is way more common, unlike tungsten.' Shi Tian thought to himself.
