Chapter 790 - 666: The Giant Cannon (4K)
Hello? Hello?
The recording stopped abruptly, causing Li Cheng to scratch his head in frustration.
On this end, after transmitting Wan Ling, the God of Mankind sent back an epic quality weapon, sealing the deal without any intention of further conversation—the recording only captured this brief segment.
"My Lord?"
The Mechanical Swarm asked softly, its claws hidden under its carapace, carrying the Eight Diagrams Demon Cannon.
Li Cheng was not entirely convinced by the God of Mankind’s words, so he was prepared with a backup plan. If the other party attempted to use the super long-range teleportation gate to locate the slum’s position, he was willing to self-destruct to destroy the teleport black stone.
"The recorder and weapon are fine, put them away."
He paused and instructed, "Also, get some sand and reinforced concrete to rebury the black stone."
After some loud construction work, the black stone was finally reburied, and he embarked on his return journey.
The way back was more relaxing than the outgoing trip. Steering the boat along the path they came by, they set the radar power to the maximum.
Once the signal was received, they traced it to an unmanned base station set up by former people, referred to the map, headed to the nearest phone booth, teleported to Fiery Flame Bay, returned the boat, and went back to the slum.
Acquiring epic equipment, as usual, it needed to be tested. Gray Rain, having discarded all electronic cigarettes and betel nuts, turned his grief into motivation and volunteered to spar with Li Cheng.
As for the results...
The epic quality [Wolf Mad Demon Axe] indeed surpassed the perfect quality [Skull Shattering Power Hammer] by a margin, boasting four special effects.
Special Effect 1, Fenrir Wolf Kiss, refers to the Fenrir giant wolf from Nordic mythology capable of devouring gods,
its effect being that hitting a living target would massively peel away the flesh around the contact point, and the wounds would be difficult to heal.
Just a light graze to the nail could cause the flesh of the entire palm to peel away, bleeding profusely. The hemostatic injectors produced by GS Biotechnology or the Healing Magic Potions from the Witch Alliance couldn’t stop the bleeding,
even the micro life potions from the killing field could at most block the wrist arteries.
It just so happened to counter those large-sized monsters with high-speed regenerative abilities, such as the Big Stomach in Cai Anjie’s secret realm.
Incidentally, it could also counter individuals like Gouchen, who would use dozens of potions in a battle, the affluent pay-to-win players.
Special Effect 2 blinds the target, and Special Effect 3 heals oneself; both are useful, with the two effects only usable during the day and night, respectively. Special Effect 4 removes both restrictions when used.
Relying on the [Knight Never Dies Unarmed] skill, Li Cheng quickly mastered the martial arts related to dual-wielding hand axes, then turned around and busied himself with preparations.
First, he bought a skill scroll for Gray Rain.
[Skill Scroll Name: Judge Ghost Hand]
[Attribute: Learning Type (Limited to once)]
[Type: Spiritual Energy/Fighting]
[Usage: Active]
[Quality: Fine]
[Special Effect: Ghost catching. Actively releasing it allows both hands to touch and damage non-substantial spiritual bodies, lasting 15 minutes]
[Consumption: 150 Spiritual Power Value, 99 Sanity Value]
[Cooling Time: 1 hour]
[Use Conditions: Capable of lifting a hot-rolled steel coil]
[Note: "Infinite Heavenly Venerable, as a Taoist of the Zhengyi Sect, exorcising ghosts and warding off evil is inherently my duty. I only caught a few water ghosts after descending the mountain, what business does the government have arresting me?" The Daoist, with an immortal demeanor, confidently raised the Rolex Submariner on his wrist when facing the police.]
Indeed, this skill is mainly for Gray Rain’s self-defense.
Her strength and resilience are unmatched in her tier, but her only shortcoming is unable to hit non-substantial spiritual bodies (although spiritual bodies aren’t good against nanomachines),
Now, with the [Judge Ghost Hand] skill, she can pull out the Copper Head Belt and whip the likes of Kayako, Zhenzi, Chu Renmei, and Freddy, making them spin like tops.
After remedying Gray Rain’s shortcoming, Li Cheng went to the slum market, spending fifty thousand game coins to arm the Mechanical Swarm.
It was a massive cannon system, a metal wonder constructed from sixteen naval gun barrels of varying lengths from 18.5 to 20.7 meters,
with all barrels, along with the breech, welded onto the heavily reinforced bearing rings. The bearings have top and bottom parts, with a sleeve-structured recoil loader on top.
The shape resembled a grand and sacred church pipe organ.
[Item Name: Barbados Pipe Organ]
[Type: Weapon]
[Attack Power: Very High]
[Quality: Perfect]
[Special Effect: Doomsday Gun. Converts from single-shot to rapid three-round burst, significantly enhances barrel heat resistance, reduces firing interval, lasts for 4 minutes]
[Consumption: 1000 Physical Value]
[Cooling Time: 70 minutes]
[Use Conditions: Cannot be mounted on any vehicle, must be hand-held, shoulder-carried, or back-carried]
[Note: The Barbados Pipe Organ weapon system has an automatic loading system capable of loading one shell every 5 seconds. All shells must be self-manufactured and meet the 406mm caliber standard]
[Note: "I’ve seen many gunners, but they all call me the Cannon King of Canada."]
Uh... The killing field notes remain entertaining as ever, but the Canadian Cannon King here refers not to some unnamed, imprisoned Canadian electric eel,
but to Girard Bull, born in Canada in 1928, a renowned artillery scientist.
This man was dubbed the cannon madman, obsessed with bigger and better artillery. Supported by the United States Army Research and Development Bureau and the Department of National Defense, Canada, he once conducted the "High-altitude Flight Research Program" project,
