Chapter 279 – Thunder Assembler Rifle

“This type of special weapon is called Magic Energy Equipment, a high-tech weapon with high destructive force, but this is not a technology that originated from Earth.”

“Brother, can you simplify the explanation?” a slightly embarrassed Xiong Gang asked.

“For example, the Cold Weaponry of the Post-Apocalyptic Era is like the machete of our Civilized Age, Magic Energy Equipment will be akin to the firearms of the Civilized Age. The technology also possesses support-type equipment, you can think of them as the lightbulbs we use in the Civilized Age.”

During the war-torn Post-Apocalyptic Era, the most important types were still Magic Energy Equipment used for fighting; this was also one of the reasons the Gunmaster profession came about. Or else, the crafters would be called Magic Energy Masters, and not Gunmasters. 

“Oh, so that is how it is.”

Looking at Xiong Gang’s enlightened look caused Yang Tian to break into a cold sweat, the alluring woman beside Xiang Gang was displaying a pondering look.

There were a total of forty-six organizations within the meeting room, but only eight of them have Magic Energy Equipment, allowing everyone to clearly see who were the ones.

“Sir, did you gather us to meet these eight organizations?”

Everyone present was smart individuals and knew that this was not Ji Hou Tao’s only motive, they only asked the question so that he would continue.

“Haha, I called everyone here today to showcase the might of these special weapons that I mentioned.”

The windows on both sides of the meeting room opened, revealing six target boards hanging in the air outside the windows. The target boards were pulled up by Flying-Type Beast Metahumans, and tied onto these target boards were Mid Rank 3 insects on their dying breaths.

The twelve soldiers within the meeting room all went to the windows.

High Rank 3 Magic Energy Weapon, Thunder Assembler Rifle

A Thunder Assembler Rifle suddenly appeared in the hands of each soldier, the thick energy of electricity were gathered on the muzzle, causing the metahumans within the meeting room to shudder.

The twelve soldiers were only Rank 2, this was something they noticed earlier and caused them to ignore them. However, when the Thunder Assembler Rifle appeared in their hands, they all felt some threat coming from them.

“Fire.”

Twelve bluish-white light shot out from the Thunder Assembler Rifle and struck the insects, despite their carapace protecting them, the might of the rifles still took away their lives. Their flesh was also cooked from the attack.

Only now, did the metahumans finally understood how powerful these special weapons that Ji Hou Tao mentioned were.

“Enough.”

Ji Hou Tao waved his hand, and the windows closed again. The twelve soldiers also kept their Thunder Assembler Rifles.

Xiong Gang asked Yang Tian again:

“Brother, Magic Energy Equipment is this powerful?”

“The ones in they are using are High Rank 3 types, each blast is equivalent to a full-powered attack of a High Rank 3 metahumans. However, the cost of producing this level of Magic Energy Equipment is high, C City likely did not have many of them!”

This information was still enough to shock Xiong Gang. However, as Yang Tian was still not familiar with Xiong Gang, therefore he did not reveal everything.

The Thunder Assembler Rifle could easily deal with a High Rank 3 insect at full power. However, because the users of the weapons were only Rank 2 metahumans, they lacked the energy to supply the weapon for it to display its full might. For the sake of producing the desired effect, the military could only use Mid Rank 3 insects.

The energy within the twelve soldiers was completely depleted, they stood at the side of the stage with pale faces, but not many people noticed their current condition.

“As everyone noticed, they are only Rank 2 but can kill those Mid Rank 3 insects due to the power of these special weapons. This is the power of technology, there is also a name for these weapons, they are called Magic Energy Equipment.”

Due to the showcase earlier, except for a rare few, including Yang Tian, everyone became very focused when Ji Hou Tao spoke.

“Sir, can we know where we can get these Magic Energy Equipment?” some organizations could not help but be interested.

“No need to rush, the reason everyone is gathered today is to discuss Magic Energy Equipments. However, teaching a man to fish is better than giving a man a fish. That is why we will only share the method to craft these weapons and not provide the weapons itself.”

“Real… really?”

The metahumans could not help but be surprised, the might of the weapons were displayed clearly earlier, yet they were able to obtain the method to manufacture this technology so easily.”

“Of course. However, you must sign an agreement with us.”

“That is only natural.”

Many metahumans expressed their agreement to such a requirement.

Seeing so many organizations agreeing, Ji Hou Tao knew that the meeting today was a success, but there were still some who did not agree immediately. None of the eight organizations in the front row replied, they were also the eight strongest organizations recognized by the military.

Signing an agreement with the military also meant that their organization will be fettered to the military, this was not something they wish to see. However, they were also very interested in Magic Energy Equipment and because of that, they were hesitating.

“It was hard for everyone to gather here today, we can bring everyone to visit the factory that made the Magic Energy Equipment and see its manufacturing process.”

“Thank you, Sir Ji.”

Other than Yang Tian, the other seven organizations were glad to be able to observe the manufacturing process, thinking that they might be able to learn the technique by watching.

Ji Hou Tao and Yang Tian had naturally caught on to what they were thinking, but as people who knew about Magic Energy Equipment, they knew that it was impossible to learn anything if without the drawings for the Core and Supplementary Spell Formations.

Jiang Lie’s Blazing Lava City might have Magic Energy Equipment, but they were all purchased from the military, Blazing Lava City did not have anyone who knew how to manufacture Magic Energy Equipment.

The doors of the meeting room opened, and the organizations were led to observe the manufacturing of Magic Energy Equipment.

Ji Hou Tao and his people were the first to leave the room before the first organization within the meeting room started exiting. Before Yang Tian left, he made sure to keep all the leftover fruits before he left.

Everyone present possessed some form of storage equipment, so no one would develop greed towards the Archaic Bronze Ring.

There was an independent factory zone constructed after the apocalypse, but the equipment within this zone was not crude or retrogressive, it was very advanced instead.

Upon entering the factory district, the organizations noticed ranks of completed Gun-Type Magic Energy Equipment
