Dragon's Origin
#624 - Revisiting the Core Area (Part 1)
Everyone thought this was already a sufficiently insane weapon, but when they returned to the Marquis's residence and Wang Sheng stated the requirements for the arrows he used, everyone realized that the real madness was waiting here.
The arrow design had already been decided, with the weight, dimensions, center of gravity, and everything else finalized. Everyone thought this was the final requirement, but Wang Sheng added some more on top.
Heavy armor-piercing arrows were a must. Such heavy arrows, all metal, and using the hardest metal that could penetrate several layers of iron armor without deforming, were definitely armor-piercing arrows.
However, Wang Sheng also demanded some modifications to the arrowhead. The shape of the armor-piercing arrow was changed from the original bullet shape. Because the weight had increased twentyfold, the length also had to increase, with the pointed tip also becoming several times longer, reaching over three inches.
Wang Sheng required a formation to be embedded in this three-inch pointed tip. The specific function of the formation was to explode. Without spiritual Qi input, the formation would detonate upon impact, similar to the shield on the wall of the Linglong Pavilion Master.
Because the formation was at the tip, it wouldn't touch the barrel. Moreover, Wang Sheng required a certain amount of impact force; ordinary cocking or loading into the magazine wouldn't trigger the formation. The formation would only explode under one condition: when fired at high speed and penetrating anything by three inches.
If the target was a human body, the tip would already be three inches inside, followed by an explosion. Just imagining this scene made all the grandmasters shudder. It was simply deadly!
But thinking about it the other way around, Wang Sheng was making such a heavy sniper crossbow precisely to take the enemy's life. Adding such a safety feature meant that even if some legendary experts had a slim chance of clamping the arrow with their muscles, the subsequent explosion would still be fatal. Penetrating three inches and then exploding was basically a design that left no chance of survival.
Was it vicious? Yes, it was vicious! Would they do it? Yes, they would!
Everyone was just doing their job, and Wang Sheng was the boss, so of course they would listen to the boss.
The first heavy sniper crossbow was an experimental product. The ones made next would be Wang Sheng's real weapons. Wang Sheng directly ordered two hundred of those custom-made armor-piercing arrows. Over a hundred pounds of special metal materials were used, with more than fifty pounds going into the arrows, and the rest were sealed and stored in the Marquis's residence, waiting for Wang Sheng to need them again.
Two hundred armor-piercing arrows were ordered, and Wang Sheng ordered five hundred ordinary refined steel arrows, all inspected and delivered by Old Tie, for dealing with ordinary experts. In fact, these ordinary refined steel arrows were sufficient for dealing with seventh and eighth level experts. The power of these arrows was not small; the only problem was that they could only be used once. For Wang Sheng, this was not a problem.
For the grandmasters involved, this time they thoroughly enjoyed the convenience brought by standardized production. Each component was not produced by the same person, but as long as the dimensions were specified, anyone could produce them and they could be used.
In particular, the use of high-precision measuring tools allowed everyone to see the advantages of precision manufacturing. To put it bluntly, if they were still using the original size rulers, even if everyone was a grandmaster, it would be impossible to make such a powerful heavy sniper crossbow.
In addition, during the manufacturing process, Wang Sheng gave several suggestions and created several simple and practical simple machines. For example, a machine for pulling rifling, a grinding machine, a fitter's workbench for fixing at various angles, and even a rudimentary machine tool that could only be used for simple cutting, as well as a drilling machine for drilling the inner wall of the barrel.
In order to create an absolutely straight inner wall of the barrel, Wang Sheng had to explain the method of grinding a reference plane with three metal plates to create a foundation.
For Wang Sheng, these machines were extremely rudimentary, but for these grandmasters who had been crafting all their lives, it was as if they had seen a new world. In Wang Sheng's words, any of these machines, if they could study one of them to the extreme, they would have the opportunity to become industry leaders surpassing the grandmasters.
The first heavy sniper crossbow was disassembled, and everyone checked each component one by one to see if there was any excessive wear and tear after hundreds of shots. In addition, they had to fine-tune certain components according to Wang Sheng's usage habits.
After the inspection, Wang Sheng was also relieved. There were no major problems. Basically, the components of the first crossbow, after careful maintenance, could be used as spare parts for the real heavy sniper crossbow.
The remaining work was proceeding in an orderly manner. While waiting for the new weapon to be released, Wang Sheng did two things. The first was to personally visit the opposite door and discuss with Steward Zhou the personnel requirements for the royal family to enter this time.
To put it bluntly, because they were going to the core of the Thousand Soul Land, they should try to reduce the scale as much as possible. Quality over quantity, and it was best to limit the number to within five. Too many would be a big target and difficult to take care of. They must all be self-sufficient experts, who could not be easily dealt with by a few eighth or ninth level monsters. It was best if they were all legendary realm.
The most critical requirement was to obey orders without question. This was an iron law. Entering the Thousand Soul Land was an iron law. Not to mention entering the core of the Thousand Soul Land, even a little carelessness inside could be fatal. Since they were勉强 considered their own people, they had to make this clear first, so that they would not have any other thoughts like that Liu commander back then.
The second thing was to try to determine the conditions for the Prisoner Dragon Transformation. This was the foundation for future advancement in cultivation, and it was also Wang Sheng's capital to survive in this world. How could Wang Sheng keep it idle all the time?
The Prisoner Dragon, shaped like a small yellow dragon with scales and horns, loves music all his life and often squats on the head of the zither to enjoy plucked and bowed music. Since he likes music, Wang Sheng almost didn't need to confirm that the Prisoner Dragon's promotion must be related to rhythm, maybe he would have to listen to more than a thousand beautiful songs.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
To verify this, Wang Sheng specially asked Mei'er to invite a singing troupe to listen to. As a result, Mei'er pouted her small mouth and was angry for a long time, but still invited a troupe to the mansion to perform for Wang Sheng.
When he saw the singing troupe, Wang Sheng was dumbfounded. All the singers were young and beautiful women, dressed in cool and seductive clothes, wishing they could jump into your arms with just one look. No wonder Mei'er was unhappy after hearing Wang Sheng's request.
Fortunately, when Wang Sheng pulled Mei'er to listen together, Mei'er smiled again. Wanting to cause trouble near Mei'er, these ordinary singers were still too tender.
