Transmigrator's Guide to Conquering Another World
Chapter 212 199: The First Spiritual Energy Weapon Debuts! (Double-Length Chapter)
So far, we can only apply it on a very small scale to psionic bullets; amounts exceeding 3 milligrams lead to its disorderliness—meaning that beyond 3 milligrams, it cannot be vaporized.
Even if grouped according to measurements and gathered together through the equipment, it doesn't work; the minimum spacing distance must be two meters. This might involve some kind of microstate issue, similar to the penetration traits of neutrinos.
In short, it's a conglomerate similar to many microstates locally. The physics team is currently researching other applications of monster crystal. At this stage, our 12.7mm psionic armor-piercing bullet is the only mature outcome."
Lin Li was not an expert in molecular science, so he had no clear understanding of what Tang Pin mentioned. He was more curious about another matter:
"Academician Tang, what realm of monster or cultivator can a 12.7mm psionic armor-piercing bullet kill?"
Tang Pin flipped through the report in front of him, handed one page to him, and said at the same time:
"According to our field tests, the current limit this armor-piercing bullet can kill is...
Early-stage of level three, equivalent to the first or second layer of Core Formation Realm, and within a thousand meters, the target has no place to hide.
Because their divine sense response feedback isn't fast enough for their body to react immediately.
But at about two thousand meters, it's not so certain.
Cultivators above the Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer can basically evade, while below that, the fatal rate is around 85%. Nevertheless, it's already several times better than our previous firearms."
Lin Li heard this and nodded slightly, a hint of excitement showing in his eyes.
As Tang Pin mentioned, the previous firearms of the rabbits could kill cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm Sixth Layer, but those bullets only had an initial velocity of over 800 meters per second, which is one-fifth of the current new bullets.
Therefore, aside from cultivators trapped in specific areas, the previous bullets could only stably kill cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm first or second layer within 500 meters, which might not make a hit if faced with extreme defense.
Within 200 meters, it could kill cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm Sixth Layer, but for cultivators, sniper ranges of 200 meters were already rather useless — in such a distance, either the opponent was killed by close defense artillery, or he rushed into the position first and caused massive damage before death.
In either case, the previous sniper rifles couldn't exert their effect.
It's something you can use, but there are far more useful and convenient things compared to it.
But this psionic armor-piercing bullet is different, with a peak speed of 4100m/s, it can almost instantly kill any cultivator or monster within level three across a thousand-meter range. How many times is this improvement?
Lin Li then turned to Lin Ziming, saying:
"Colonel Lin, how's it going, are you tempted? Do you want to try one?"
Although Tang Pin didn't say it directly, bringing Lin Li and Lin Ziming to the shooting range instead of the lab today to see the data suggested quite clearly what he meant.
This also proved Tang Pin's confidence in this firearm and the new 12.7mm psionic armor-piercing bullet.
Hearing Lin Li's words, a rare trace of anticipation appeared on Lin Ziming's face.
Military men, who doesn't love knives and guns?
Actually, during Tang Pin's introduction of the firearm, he was a bit impatient, if it were GTA5, he might have... cough cough.
Tang Pin clearly noticed Lin Ziming's eagerness as well, smilingly handing him the gun:
"Colonel Lin, hold it steady; it weighs over twenty pounds."
Lin Ziming carefully took the JS05, weighed it against his chest; although he had used many sniper rifles, it was his first time handling a west-specific JS05:
"Wow, it's indeed not light."
Then, under Tang Pin's guidance, he loaded the bullet into the calibration, walked from the gun storage station to the shooting platform within the range.
Since the Damo Realm didn't have to consider about architectural density issues, the military base designed the shooting range very open, with a diameter close to three kilometers, fully functional.
At this moment.
A high platform a kilometer outside the shooting platform was placed with a monster carcass from the early-stage of level three.
Even though the dead monster had no spiritual energy to protect its body, its bones were many times tougher than its surface defense.
Once everything was ready, Lin Li carried the gun to the target.
As the captain of the special operations team, he was very skilled in handling this firearm, prepared before lying down and aiming at the target, pulling the trigger.
Boom—
The JS05 without a silencer roared, the strong recoil made Lin Ziming, now a cultivator of the Qi Cultivation Second Layer, feel a bit overwhelmed, his shoulder sank heavily.
When he regained composure, the monster's skeleton a kilometer away had been shattered by the armor-piercing power.....
Beside him, Lin Li was stunned for a few seconds, suddenly turned his head, and asked Tang Pin:
"Academician Tang, how many of these psionic armor-piercing bullets can a single monster crystal make?"
Tang Pin thought for a while and said:
"Around two hundred, after all, the monster crystal itself isn't heavy, plus its inside isn't entirely spiritual energy crystal, there are also other components."
"A single monster crystal from a level three monster can make two hundred 12.7mm psionic armor-piercing bullets. One armor-piercing bullet can kill a level three monster....."
Lin Li softly whispered and exchanged a glance with Lin Ziming, both of their eyes lit up simultaneously.
