Chapter 253 Are you kidding me?


    Duanmuhuai didn''t know what the Wei''an Government Alliance was thinking, but in fact Presco did guess Duanmu Huai''s thoughts. Through the decryption of orbital satellite intelligence, Duanmu Huai also had a certain understanding of the Wei''an Government Alliance. He didn''t intend to get too close to the other party. Otherwise, he could have contacted the other party directly instead of doing his own thing. But it''s obvious that Duanmuhuai still has his own ideas.


    ?At present, the Astra Militarum is taking the stronghold as the center and spreading out in all directions to sweep away the Orc soldiers inside. There are battleships monitoring them, so it is not difficult to locate the Orc soldiers. The next step is for the Astra Militarum to attack.


    As for Duanmuhuai...


    “Is this the latest development?”


    Looking at the bolter in front of him, Duanmuhuai picked it up curiously and asked.


    ?Ever since he confiscated this weapon underground that day, Duanmuhuai has always felt that this combination of chain sword + firearm is very good, especially for the Star Realm military. So he handed the weapon to the weapons research team headed by Kurala and asked them to use it as a blueprint to modify the bolt gun.


    The weapon used by the Astra Militarum is the storm bolter, which has two parallel barrels and fires standard .75 caliber bolt rounds. Therefore, strictly speaking, the Astra Militarum''s bolter is thicker. The width of the gun body is basically as thick as two guns glued together. The gun body itself is not too long. Compared to the Astra Militarum, it is more like It is the length of a thickened version of a miniature submachine gun.


    But after Kurala and the others modified the bolt gun, it has become completely different. Its width has not changed, but its length has increased. It is basically the same length as a traditional assault rifle. Under the barrel, a powered chain saw is installed, integrated with the barrel itself.


    ?As a result, what originally looked like a thickened version of the slightly punched bolter now looks like a huge, thick, rectangular box equipped with a chainsaw.


    Or it can be said that you can just shoot a muzzle directly on the chain saw.


    However, there is also a problem, and this is the reason why Kurala called Duanmuhuai over.


    That is about the power and energy of weapons.


    According to Kura La''s design, the current explosive chain saw gun has two routes.


    One way is to continue to equip explosive bombs as a means of attack, and then add additional power to activate the chain sword.


    ?Another option is to change the attack method of the bolt gun, transform it into a laser gun, and then share the energy battery with the chain sword.


    ??The advantage of the former is that the two sides are separated. After the bullets are fired, you can still use the chain saw to chop directly. In the latter case, once the energy is exhausted, they can only wait for death.


    But in comparison, after being transformed into a laser gun, the number of energy batteries that can be carried is greatly increased. One energy battery can emit about one hundred and fifty beam rays. As long as you carry three energy batteries, it is basically equivalent to that of a bolt gun. The number of bullets.


    However………


    “Flashlight……”


    ? Duanmu Huai raised his gun, aimed forward and pulled the trigger. Soon, a red beam of light shot out from the muzzle, missed the target, and then hit the wall behind.


    …………”


    ?Looking at this scene, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes silently.


    Forget it, my shooting skills are just like this.


    When he was shooting at the night market, Duanmu Huai fired ten shots but missed one of them. The boss had to give him a prize and asked him to leave. Otherwise, when others saw Duanmu Huai shooting, they would think that the boss had done something to him. As for my limbs, I can''t even do business anymore.


    It is too exaggerated to miss even one out of ten shots.


    Of course, Duanmu Huai said that he was not completely unable to hit. If it was a large-scale attack method such as a shotgun or a grenade gun, he would still have no problem, but when it came to something like a sniper gun or a rifle that needed to be aimed... He was blinded.


    Simply put, the bolter version is more powerful but has fewer bullets. The flashlight version is less powerful, but has more bullets.


    However, if Duanmuhuai had to choose...


    “Let’s continue to use the bolter equipment.”


    Putting down the chain saw gun in his hand, Duanmu Huai made a decisive decision. The reason why flashlights were used in the Empire era was because the empire had too many armies and the quality of its personnel was uneven. In this case, reliability, stability and loading capacity were the most important. Therefore, laser weapons became the standard configuration of the Imperial Army. However, Duanmu Huai''s Astra Militarum followed the path of an elite battle group like the Astartes, and did not need a large amount of cannon fodder to attract hatred.


    In this case, power comes first.


    After all, many of the enemies faced by the Astartes are thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and laser guns cannot penetrate them at all - otherwise, why would players always jokingly call the laser weapons of the Imperial Army flashlights?


    ??Isn’t it just that the metaphor has no use other than to shine a bright light on the other party?


    Moreover, based on Duanmu Huai''s tactical thinking, the future Astra Militarum fighting style will be long-range bolters, close-range chain saws to smear the face, and running out of ammunition and food, directly rushing towards and self-destructing - what will the Astra Militarum fight under this kind of thinking? Need to use a flashlight?


    It’s not necessary at all.


    “Yes, sir.”


    Hearing Duanmuhuai’s decision, Kurala nodded, and then she seemed to think of something. "Ah, by the way, Mr. Buddy sent a message not long ago, saying that the new vehicle manufactured for you has been completed. Please accept it."


    “Oh? So fast?”


    Hearing this, Duanmu Huai was a little surprised. He originally thought that the dwarf technician would take a while, but he didn''t expect that he was very fast... But thinking about it carefully, Duanmu Huai himself said that he needed consumables, and he definitely didn''t. It will be like the previous Metal Mystic Dragon.


    ?Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai immediately came to the Holy City, and then met Buddy, who took him to the huge warehouse again.


    “Okay, Mr. Buddy, what surprise did you bring me this time?”


    “This time I designed and manufactured it according to your ideas.”


    The dwarf technician looked very proud. He turned on the light and illuminated the dark warehouse. Then, Duanmuhuai saw a huge object covered with white cloth in the center of the warehouse. Although you can''t tell what it is from its appearance, but... this thing does at least look huge.


    “So, what is this?”


    “Hahaha, watch it, boy!”


    ?Hearing Duanmuhuai''s inquiry, Buddy showed a proud smile, then he stepped forward and pulled off the white cloth.


    Soon, a mechanical giant appeared in front of Duanmuhuai.


    ?It has thick limbs, its entire body is black, and its body is covered with thick armor. In front of its huge head, there is a sharp horn standing upright! The limbs of this giant steel beast are extremely thick, and there are even huge steel barriers erected like fences on both sides of its body in front of it.


    This is a rhinoceros!


    ]]


    Seeing this thing, Duanmu Huai almost spat out a mouthful of blood.


    “Damn it, the Inquisition, what the **** is this?”


    “How about it, this time it meets your requirements.”


    ??Buddy smiled and reached out his hand to knock the mechanical rhinoceros next to him.


    "It must be very suitable for you to sit on it, and I also specially designed it with a modular design. Although this rhino is a bit larger, it is fast, powerful, and not afraid of being destroyed. How about it?" Isn’t it awesome?”


    Looking at the triumphant Buddy, Duanmuhuai rolled his eyes and sighed silently. Then he stretched out his hand, and soon, a soul card appeared in front of Duanmuhuai.


    【Magic Electromagnetic Giant Rhinoceros (Legend)】


    【Consumption: 7】


    【Attack: 0】


    【Defense: 7】


    【When attacking, add three (magical electromagnetic giant rhinoceros) cards to the hand, gain +X/+0 effect when entering, X is the number of creation cards remaining in the hand (rush)】


    …………”


    How can I put it... This card does meet the "consumables" required by Duanmu Huai. Although it does not have the ability to be immune to physical attacks like Metal Mystic Dragon, every time this rhinoceros attacks, three more cards will be acquired. Card, from this point of view, even if it is damaged, Duanmuhuai can continue to summon another card directly from his hand. Moreover, its attack power is determined based on the number of creation cards in its hand. From this point of view, the attack power of this giant rhinoceros is super strong. Even without BUFFs such as physical immunity, the attack power of this giant rhinoceros is super strong. On its own, it is enough to cause a serious blow to enemy troops and targets.


    As for the flying itself, it is not a problem. As long as Duanmuhuai uses his gravity gloves to act on the mount, he can make it fly directly. To put it bluntly, it is artificially exerting anti-gravity. For Duanmu Huai, this is not a difficult thing.


    ?However, the biggest problem is...


    “Why rhinoceros?”


    Duanmuhuai looked at the magic electromagnetic giant rhino in front of him speechlessly. Duanmuhuai was about to cry without tears. He stared at Buddy, even a little doubting whether he was a believer of an evil god. Why did he always make a mount for himself? Trap yourself? And I don’t know if it is to match Duanmu Huai’s armor. The carapace of this mechanical rhinoceros is also engraved with a huge skull pattern, which looks full of a terrifying sense of coercion. Coupled with the rhino’s The small eyes, which are also shining with red light, only make people feel more and more terrifying.


    Imagine yourself sitting on this huge mechanical rhinoceros, holding a thunder hammer...


    ?Hmm...this is really...that something.


    “Because you are relatively large, I thought an animal of the same size would be more suitable. I originally wanted to use an elephant, but that one seems a bit too big. Isn’t this just right?”


    …………It’s really going well.”


    ?At this moment, facing Buddy’s answer, Duanmuhuai was completely speechless.
