The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse - Chapter 734

Chapter 734: Chapter 595, Blushing Maid Bella (One update today). Chapter 734: Chapter 595, Blushing Maid Bella (One update today). “Even if it could be useful, given the current environment, it probably wouldn’t be of much use,” Qi Hancai expressed her thoughts.

Even though Qi Hancai hadn’t paid attention to the electromagnetic cannon.

After the news came through, there had been some discussions within the base.

After all, someone had seen related news.

A simple explanation of its use could clarify the general principle and function.

In the current environment, firearms are not very effective against zombies, not to mention weapons that require a large amount of electrical energy for power.

Most importantly, they were still in the research and improvement stage.

They hadn’t been deployed at that time, let alone now.

On Wu Heng’s side, the considerations were a bit different.

The first thing that came to mind was its use in the Otherworld.

Installing it on a warship or for positional defense were both good choices.

The main issues were the supply of electrical energy and whether this weapon could be used stably.

“Can the skeletons rescue them?” asked Wu Heng.

Qi Hancai nodded, “That shouldn’t be a problem, but we have to change the original plan and cross the border to rescue them.”

“At this point, what borders are there left? Let Li Yahong organize a rescue. Even if the electromagnetic cannon isn’t useful, they are still cutting-edge researchers, and might be useful to us,” Wu Heng said.

“I will notify sister Yahong right away to organize the rescue,” Qi Hancai readily agreed.

She also understood the importance of talented individuals.

The base was unable to proceed with several projects precisely because they lacked the relevant technical personnel.

After discussing the electromagnetic cannon, Wu Heng asked, “Is there anything else?”

“Nothing else, everything at the base is normal.”

Wu Heng nodded, stood up, and said, “Come on, take me for a tour around the factory.”

Qi Hancai also stood up, taking her small owl along as they walked outside.

It was still raining outside, and the two walked out of the dormitory building under an umbrella.

First, they headed to a factory building.

Upon entering the main gate, they saw several humanoid wooden targets placed at the entrance.

The targets were wearing stab-proof vests, which were covered in scratches.

“King, Sister Qi,” Qiangzi greeted, walking over.

The other personnel behind him also stood up and saluted.

“How is the stab-proof gear?” Wu Heng asked.

It was evident from the scene that Qiangzi and his team had not been slacking off; the pile of worn-out stab-proof vests had formed a small mountain.

“Come this way,” Qiangzi led them further inside to a wooden target.

The vest on the target had numerous cuts, but only the fabric had been split open, no major threading had come undone, nor had the iron plates inside fallen out.

“This is our improved fabric, and it has performed the best. We increased the fabric’s toughness, and on the inside of the iron plate, we added a net of iron wires woven together with the fabric, preventing any unravelling or falling off,” Qiangzi explained, showing a prototype for demonstration.

The front side was an iron plate, and the inward side was welded with some wires, woven together with the inner fabric.

It was quite an innovative approach.

After finishing, he added, “There is still some gap compared to the original stab-proof gear.

“Kerim!” Wu Heng called out.

The skeleton attendant Kerim stepped forward with his sword, slashing diagonally.

A harsh metallic squeal rang out.

The stab-proof vest was marked with a fine, long scratch, but the iron plate was still inside and hadn’t fallen out like before.

Wu Heng pondered for a moment.

This method had resolved the issue of the iron plate falling out but had added an extra step to the process.

It was much more complex than the initial concept.

“Document the materials and processes, and I’ll have someone produce a few samples to see how they perform. Continue improving, and let Qi Hancai and Li Yahong coordinate the personnel and materials you need,” Wu Heng finally decided.

Qiangzi’s eyes lit up.

The others also showed expressions of surprise.

It seemed that their efforts over this period were not in vain and had been recognized.

“We’ll write it up tonight and hand it over to you tomorrow,” Qiangzi promised.

“Good!”

Wu Heng agreed and left, as Qiangzi and his team immediately began organizing materials and writing down the processes.

After leaving the factory, Wu Heng followed Qi Hancai to visit Gao Rong’s mechanical research lab and the bullet production workshop.

He took a look at each, effectively making his presence felt.

Finally, they ate lunch in the cafeteria.

Then he returned to his room and went back to Gold and Silver Island.

…

Exiting the boundary door.

After releasing all the ghosts, Glenda went off to work on her articles, and Xiao Xiao pouted, translating two newly purchased Bard Skill Books.

Bella watched as the two ghosts busied themselves with their tasks.

Wu Heng opened the door and went downstairs to the courtyard.

The maids were playing shuttlecock in the courtyard.

The three domesticated Flying Dragons, like household dogs, lay in their cages watching the people laughing and playing.

As Wu Heng came out, the maids waved and greeted him.

“Carry on, I’ve got nothing to do!” Wu Heng said directly.

The maids nodded and continued kicking the shuttlecock.

Wu Heng walked to the other side of the courtyard and directly activated the “Mansion Skill.”

A crack and a stone door appeared.

It revealed the artillery behind it and the crowded skeletons in the Hidden Arsenal Cave.

The number of skeletons in the cave had increased due to the clearing of the Heaven Destiny Cult.

It was now bone to bone.

“All of you, come out,” Wu Heng ordered.

With a clatter, the skeletons jostled out of the Hidden Arsenal Cave and stood on the open ground of the courtyard.

Wu Heng began making some arrangements.

The Mutated Skeletons re-entered the Hidden Arsenal Cave, and the remaining skeletons were kept by Wu Heng.
