Quan Yi touched the scalding barrel of the machine gun, glanced down at the scattered countless bullet casings, and felt extremely happy.
The degree of joy was even no less than the feeling when he obtained the External Soul Bone.
Machine gun, a well-deserved weapon of slaughter.
Historically, a team of fifty people, carrying four heavy machine guns, repelled the attack of an army of five thousand people. In this battle, three thousand of the five thousand soldiers died under the guns.
An ultra-long range of more than one thousand meters, an ultra-fast rate of fire of more than six hundred rounds per minute, Quan Yi's Third Soul Skill, Scorching Ray's longest range was only this far.
After Quan Yi calmed down, he asked Blacksmith Yuan for specific details.
"How many machine guns can we produce per day at this stage?"
Blacksmith Yuan replied, "Without affecting the production of Bicycles, we can produce ten units per day."
After thinking for a moment, Quan Yi immediately instructed, "Starting today, immediately start the Production Line for machine guns and matching bullets."
"Yes!" Blacksmith Yuan paused, and asked Quan Yi, "Young Master, how many units do we need to produce specifically?"
Quan Yi smiled, "Let's tentatively produce one thousand machine guns first. As for the matching bullets, the more the better. I will use half of the research and development funds to purchase materials.
In a few days, these materials will be continuously transported here."
Blacksmith Yuan's heart suddenly shook upon hearing this. Half of the research and development funds was not a small amount.
Their annual research and development funds were more than ten million Gold Soul Coins, and half of that was five million Gold Soul Coins.
The cost of a machine gun, even if made with expensive materials, was only about one thousand Gold Soul Coins.
One thousand units would be about one million Gold Soul Coins.
As for the bullets, they were even cheaper. The cost of one bullet was only about ten Copper Soul Coins.
The remaining four million Gold Soul Coins could be used to create four billion bullets.
Although Blacksmith Yuan didn't quite understand Quan Yi's idea, he still chose to obey Quan Yi's orders.
Blacksmith Yuan's attitude of obedience was an important reason why Quan Yi entrusted him with important tasks.
After informing Blacksmith Yuan of the future production plan, Quan Yi looked at the machine gun again.
At this moment, a peculiar idea arose in his heart.
Immediately, he asked Blacksmith Yuan, "Are there any remaining bullets? I want to continue testing the performance of the machine gun."
"We still have a few boxes of bullets, about eight thousand in number. However, the Steel Plate used for testing has been shot through. We can't make Steel Plate for testing in a short time."
Blacksmith Yuan somewhat underestimated the terrifying power of the machine gun, so he didn't prepare spare Steel Plate.
However, Quan Yi suddenly crossed the shooting platform and walked towards the front of the machine gun.
While walking, Quan Yi said to Blacksmith Yuan, "You can leave the matter of the target to me, you can adjust the bullets and guns first."
After Blacksmith Yuan received the order, he immediately moved the remaining bullet boxes to the side, and then re-added water to the barrel.
At the moment Blacksmith Yuan was preparing, Quan Yi had already reached the position of the Steel Plate.
He witnessed the terrifying power of the machine gun at close range.
Quan Yi squatted down, his palm gently stroking the fallen Steel Plate. He saw that the several-centimeter-thick Iron Essence Steel Plate was shot through by bullets, leaving only uneven holes.
This level of Steel Plate was several times thicker than the armor worn by soldiers. The fact that the machine gun could penetrate the Steel Plate meant that it could also penetrate the armor of soldiers.
Quan Yi walked past the first Steel Plate and walked towards the second Steel Plate. Here, it could be found that some of the bullets failed to penetrate, leaving only dents.
This part was the special traces caused by the bullets that lost their power after passing through the second Steel Plate.
The remaining perforations were caused by the bullets shooting straight after the first Steel Plate fell.
It could be seen that the penetrating power of the bullets was also limited. After penetrating a Steel Plate, the kinetic energy would be greatly reduced.
However, the limitations of a single bullet could be supplemented by a large number. Quan Yi was very satisfied with the test results of the machine gun.
Just as Quan Yi was admiring the gun marks, Blacksmith Yuan in the distance shouted to Quan Yi, "Young Master, it's ready."
Quan Yi turned around and walked towards Blacksmith Yuan, but when he reached a position about five hundred meters away, he suddenly stopped.
In Blacksmith Yuan's puzzled eyes, Quan Yi told Blacksmith Yuan his suggestion.
He shouted, "Blacksmith Yuan, set up the machine gun and shoot at me!"
Blacksmith Yuan instantly doubted his ears, saying in disbelief, "What? Young Master, what are you saying?"
Quan Yi roared again, "Shoot at me!"
Immediately afterward, Blazing Sun Gauntlets appeared on Quan Yi's hands, and six Soul Rings floated behind him. The powerful aura emanating from his body caused Blacksmith Yuan's heart to tremble violently.
Blacksmith Yuan swallowed nervously, and under Quan Yi's command, he gripped the gun handle with difficulty.
He shouted loudly at Quan Yi, "Ready..."
"Start!"
"Tat-tat-tat"
In the next moment, Blacksmith Yuan decisively pulled the trigger, and countless bullets formed a line, shooting towards Quan Yi.
Quan Yi stared directly at the muzzle. After reaching the Soul Emperor level, his dynamic vision had reached a terrifying state.
He could barely capture the beautiful initial velocity of the bullets, which was over seven hundred meters per second.
Moreover, in order to capture the trajectory of the bullets faster, Quan Yi used his mental power to probe in front of him.
The combination of dynamic vision and mental power allowed Quan Yi to capture the position of every bullet.
However, being able to perceive them did not mean that Quan Yi could dodge them.
At least ten bullets per second were shooting towards Quan Yi. With Quan Yi's physical speed, he simply couldn't dodge them.
Even if he managed to dodge the first few bullets through prediction, Blacksmith Yuan could easily catch up with Quan Yi by slightly moving the muzzle.
But being unable to dodge didn't matter, as Quan Yi had never intended to dodge from the beginning.
As the bullets rapidly approached, Quan Yi clenched his hands, and the black Soul Ring behind him lit up.
In an instant, red light surged from under his feet, and vast Soul Power erupted from Quan Yi's body.
A huge Dragon Head, four meters high, rose from the ground.
As it rose, the Dragon Head opened its mouth, swallowing Quan Yi in one gulp.
In the next instant, the fired bullets crashed into the Dragon Head of the red dragon.
"Clang clang clang"
The dull impact echoed in the underground space.
The bullets, which could easily penetrate Steel Plates, were directly deflected when they hit the Dragon Head, unable to leave a mark on its surface.
Blacksmith Yuan saw the red dragon swallow Quan Yi to protect him and instantly understood that this was Quan Yi's Soul Skill.
At the same time, he also saw the defensive power of Quan Yi's Soul Skill. The heart that was hanging in his throat finally settled down, and he began to test the Machine Gun without any scruples.
Standing in the transparent Dragon Head, Quan Yi felt as if he was wrapped in warm pool water, isolating him from external harm.
Looking at the bullets blocked by his Sixth Soul Skill, Scarlet Dragon Descent, he revealed a satisfied smile.
Scarlet Dragon Descent, application skill, partial summoning.
By consuming very little Soul Power, he could also summon a part of the Scarlet Dragon.
Although it was only a part, its strength not only did not weaken but would instead be strengthened due to condensation.
The bullets that could penetrate Steel Plates were useless against the Scarlet Dragon's defense.
