I Want You to Create a Handgun but You Give Me a Mechanical Armor Instead - Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Davis’ Revelation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After they gathered in the factory building, Steven, who was standing in front of everyone, also got to the point. “Listen up! The Imperial Intelligence Department has confirmed that those bastards from the Atlan Kingdom are here again! The second battalion has already started a conflict with them at the border! Our superiors have ordered us to produce a batch of large caliber pistols within half a month. This will be of great help to our brothers on the front line in close combat. I will also join everyone!”

After that, he deliberately paused, and a strange smile appeared on his face. “Of course, if we can’t complete the mission of the corps within fifteen days, or if we can’t produce the pistols we need, we might have to go to the battlefield together to defend against the enemy. In short, even if all of our corps are dead, we can’t let the Atlanteans cross the defensive line!”

Davis placed the spare parts on the table and whispered, “Damn it, those lunatics from the Atlantean Kingdom should find a remote island and build a mental hospital to lock them all up…”

The others’ expressions were as disgusting as if they had eaten a fly.

Rayen agreed with everyone’s feelings.

Just as Fatty Davis said, the Atlan Kingdom was a bunch of lunatics!

This empire was very old, but it existed even earlier than the Sapphire Blue Kingdom, which had a history of 800 years. Their royal family had existed for at least 2,000 years.

The two countries were originally very unfamiliar, and they did not have many interactions.

However, when a technology company discovered that there were rich crude oil fields in an unclaimed land at the border between the two countries, war inevitably broke out.

For this resource, the two countries had invested more than 500,000 soldiers in various locations over the years. The battle was abnormally intense, and no one was willing to give in.

When the Sapphire Blue Kingdom’s soldiers fought with them on the battlefield, they were surprised to find that the war method used by this country with a long history was actually an ancient cold weapon battle!

Therefore, there were few firearms in their army. The weapons in the hands of the soldiers were all spears, swords, axes, bows and arrows made by high-tech means.

However, this did not mean that their combat strength was weak. In fact, during the eight-year-long confrontation between the two sides, the Sapphire Blue Kingdom’s army had lost more than they won.

The key problem was their armor. The design of the armor of the Sapphire Blue Kingdom was top-notch, and its bullet-proof effect was outstanding. It could even withstand the impact of rocket launchers, but at the same time, it did not affect the flexibility of the warriors, so it ensured that they could face the rain of bullets and charge forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the other party.

This kind of magical technology made Rayen very interested. Two years ago, he had wanted to get a piece for his collection through the black market, but in the end, because the price was too high, he did not get it.

Now that he knew that the weapon he made was about to fight the other party, a unique pleasure was sweeping through his mind.

At this time, the Foundry Battalion Commander, Major Li Qiang, also hurried into the workshop. He handed the box in his hand to Steven, then he said to the recruits, “Guys, I believe that the squad leader has already told you about the situation. The other squads have already begun their research and development. Time is limited, so I’ll get straight to the point.”

As he said this, the large screen of the workshop was turned on by the remote control in his hand.

On the screen, an Atlan warrior wearing a red retro armor and a helmet appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The armor of the Atlan warrior was very exquisite and gorgeous. It had the appearance of an ancient battle armor, and at the same time, it also had the technological feel of a modern armor.

The beautiful armor protected every inch of the art warrior’s skin, and the armor on his chest was inlaid with a black crystal.

Rayen was entranced and thought, ‘It’s so beautiful, it’s practically a work of art…’

“Ahem…” Li Qiang coughed twice and said, “After all, the two countries have been fighting for eight years. I believe that you, as civilians, have more or less heard about the battlefield characteristics of the Atlantean Kingdom. Their armor and weapons are very lethal.

“However, that’s not the only thing that’s truly terrifying. As their armor technology is very outstanding, every country has sent spies to seize one or two pieces or seize them on the battlefield, but in the end, they’ve all returned empty-handed. The reason is that their armors all have a unique ID device. Once their owner dies, or if they are too far away from their owner, the miniature bombs embedded in the various parts of the armor will activate, and anyone who gets close to it will die.”

Hearing this, Rayen sucked in a breath of cold air. He sincerely thanked his past self for not buying this lethal thing, or else he would have gone to reunite with his father right now.

At this time, a recruit named Taro Honda raised his hand and asked, “Sir, what is the pistol plan we are going to make? How is it going to meet the standard? Can it penetrate the armor of the Atlanteans?”

The recruits were very concerned about this problem because, as Steven had said before, if the handguns were not effective, once they were sent to the battlefield, they did not have the confidence to survive the opponent’s terrifying charge.

Li Qiang could sense their thoughts from the expressions of these recruits. After all, he had also gone through when he was younger.

“Don’t worry, guys. There is good news.” As he said this, Li Qiang raised his chin at Steven who was beside him. The latter understood and opened the box that was given to him.

When he looked at the thing inside, one of the recruits shouted, “That is the armor of the Atlantean Army!”

This news made all the recruits retreat a few steps, afraid that this thing would explode!

“Look at your guts!” Steven cursed at everyone, then took out the armor from the box one by one.

Obviously, this thing did not explode.

Everyone looked at Battalion Commander Major Li, not knowing what was going on. After all, there were no Atlantean soldiers around.

Li Qiang explained, “Everyone, don’t be nervous. I guarantee that this armor is very safe. This is because this is the research material provided by the surrendered Atlantean soldiers for our corps. Everyone, get ready. I will provide everyone with a plan to make pistols based on the characteristics of the Atlantean armor.”

After saying that, Li Qiang took the helmet of the Atlantean armor and walked to a control panel. He placed this thing on the electronic control panel and began to use the machine to read the data in the armor.

“Attention!” Steven’s roar brought everyone’s attention back to him, “Now, ten people go to the warehouse to move some dark steel, and ten people prepare the ammunition and other accessories! Rayen! All of you take the remaining people to be responsible for the production of the main accessories. Tomorrow morning, the Battalion Commander and I will attend the division meeting, and you will be responsible for everyone’s assembly and start work.”

“Yes, sir!” Although everyone’s response was loud and clear, they were not confident at all.

After all, they had only been here for less than a month. It would still be alright if they were asked to do some physical work to maintain their guns. How would they know how to develop handguns that were tailor-made for close combat?

However, with the order in front of them, everyone could only brace themselves and start the work in their hands.

“Do we really have to go to the battlefield?”

“The corps doesn’t raise trash. If we can’t make a good pistol, we can only go to the battlefield as cannon fodder. Who knows, we might even be the first batch…”

“I’ve never even touched a woman. I don’t want to die yet!”

Davis and the rest held their heads as they sat by the operating table.

Only Rayen had a smile on his face, because this was the opportunity he had been waiting for!

“Finally, there’s an opportunity…”

Rayen knew that as long as he came into contact with the Atlantean armor, he would be able to know the secrets of this thing, and he would be able to create a weapon that could penetrate it according to its characteristics!

This was the powerful strength that the God of War had bestowed upon him!
