Chapter 360 Railgun Blaster
?Having checked the ammunition was made with the common uranium material, Shi Tian didn't bother to inspect further.
Since the ammunition was made with cheap materials. Then naturally the effect wouldn't be that ideal.
However, that still doesn't answer the question of the current circumstances.
As cheap as the material may be, a ton of uranium-made ammunition should still deal quite a load of damage to the Gilaso variants, and not be completely ineffective.
'Seems like I need to do a thorough analysis.' Shi Tian sighed softly, knowing that things would surely not be easy for him.
Ignoring his surroundings, Shi Tian began analyzing all of the Railgun Blaster's features. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Looking at the firing mechanism, he realized it was not a simple pull of the trigger and it fired.
To fire, the user aims the blaster at the target and activates the trigger. And what made it so special was that the electromagnetic coils instantly released a burst of energy, propelling the bullet down the conducting rails.
The rapid acceleration due to the electromagnetic forces sends the bullet hurtling toward the target at hypersonic speeds.
Essentially, this meant that the bullet should have been quite lethal, and penetrated some of the Gilaso variant's tough skins. Yet the expected outcome didn't happen and the Gilaso variant came out unscathed.
'The firing mechanism works properly, so it's not this either.' Shi Tian concluded. Both the ammunition and firing mechanism were functioning as it was meant to be, meaning the problem was something else.
"It's been 5 minutes already," Theobold said, feeling uneasy at how Shi Tian was just inspecting the same thing they were inspecting a while ago.
"Relax, Commander Theobold. Didn't Nathan say 10 minutes?" Vanessa responded.
A few seconds later, Shi Tian breathed in relief when the integrated chip responded rather quickly with the status screen appearing in front of him.
Description: The host had only checked the ammunition, firing mechanism, and the three features of the Railgun Blaster. But has the host ever thought about the advantage of the Railgun Blaster?
'The advantage of the Railgun Blaster?' Confused, Shi Tian quickly pondered over the advantages of this type of weapon.
Just like there were three features, Shi Tian was able to think of the three main advantages of the Railgun Blaster.
High velocity and kinetic energy: The bullets can achieve speeds several times faster than conventional firearms, enabling high penetration and impact.
Minimal projectile drop and faster target acquisition, thanks to the impressive velocity of the bullets.
Efficient in various environments.
'What's there to be concerned about these three advantages?' Shi Tian then questioned the integrated chip, clearly confused by its reminder. These were merely advantages and didn't affect the functionality of the Railgun Blaster itself.
Description: The host can sometimes be really ignorant. Didn't the host just mention the possibility of how the Gilaso variants were able to avoid detection?
Reading it, Shi Tian suddenly thought about the underground. If even the integrated chip was bringing it up, then it meant his guesses had just been confirmed to be true.
Moles were indeed being utilized to dig a large underground area for the Gilaso variants to reside.
And since underground relates to terrain and terrain correlates with the environment. Then the hint that the integrated chip gave him was regarding the final advantage of the Railgun Blaster.
'The environment is filled with pollution and more impossible things that corrupt the landscape itself which would have never occurred if it weren't for the fissure crack in the sky. So if this relates to the environment, then it could only mean that...' Shi Tian thought to himself and finally understood the integrated chip's meaning.
As Shi Tian figured out the main cause, Theobold suddenly arrived behind him, and his expression was solemn.
"Times up, Nathan! Have you figured out the problem yet, or are you just fooling me?" He asked in a somewhat threatening tone.
