Chapter 99: Deputy Director, Where is my Barrett Cannon? Build it for me!
While the other Soul Fighting Beasts were doing the handover work, You Chen walked straight into the research institute alone.
He went straight to the deputy director he had appointed and threw out a ring-shaped storage soul guide: "Lin Zhi, this is the record of the performance data of the Black Fire Crossbow that I recorded during this trip. It's all in here."
"Okay, Chief."
The young man named Lin Zhi, whose head was obviously bigger than that of ordinary people and looked a little bloated, just nodded woodenly and accepted the storage ring, looking a little stupid.
But You Chen knew that this guy's wisdom in some areas was no less than his own!
Lin Zhi, 18 years old this year, has the spirit of wisdom forest owl.
What is this wise forest owl? You can simply understand it as "a smart owl".
The most notable specialty or characteristic is the extraordinary intelligence and mental strength.
Before You Chen helped him solve the problem of his beast transformation, Lin Zhi's head was so big that it was scary, and even his daily life was obviously affected.
Even if he was able to practice normally and his symptoms were greatly alleviated, they were still obviously greater than those of ordinary people. The impact of his brain on his ability to move made it difficult for Lin Zhi to make great achievements in the direction of a combat soul master.
Lin Zhi is 18 years old, which is considered older among all the Soul Fighting Beasts.
However, considering his relatively old age, after investing a lot of cultivation resources, his soul power level has just reached level 33. It seems very good, but this is the result of a large amount of resources being tilted. The resource investment is no less than that of Youchen before, but with only this level, normal investors will feel that it is a bit out of pocket.
But You Chen didn't care about Lin Zhi's combat power. Improving his cultivation would only increase the upper limit of his mental power that he could normally bear, and indirectly improve his research ability.
The fact is, without Lin Zhi's help, You Chen would not have been able to develop the black firearm in such a short time as his energy was dispersed across multiple projects.
Next, You Chen also planned to hand over the subsequent development of the black firearm to Lin Zhi, and transfer the corresponding time and energy to the development of the second ring of the soul power borrowing method.
“How is it? Although it is just the most crude black firearm, it has proved that it has the ability to kill Soul Emperor or even Soul Saint.” You Chen praised Lin Zhi as he reviewed the data.
In a sense, Lin Zhi is the half-father of Black Fire Crossbow.
After hearing You Chen's exaggeration, Lin Zhi said calmly, "The bearing design cannot withstand the impact of the crossbow arrows, and the wear is too severe. After reloading a Black Fire Crossbow twice, there is a risk of explosion when it is used later. In other words, after six shots, it is basically scrapped. The efficiency... is too low."
"Don't take it too seriously."
You Chen patted Lin Zhi on the shoulder. Even though Lin Zhi's tone was flat, You Chen had been with the original Soul Fighting Beasts for many years and treated them like his own children. He could clearly see the implicit loss in Lin Zhi.
He consoled her, "To put it bluntly, this thing is just a transitional piece of equipment for you to practice with and verify its feasibility. Take a look at this."
As he spoke, You Chen handed over a stack of brand new drawings.
That was the first draft of a blackfirearm designed based on the structure of a modern rifle.
At just one glance, Lin Zhi was deeply attracted by the exquisite mechanical structure. He didn't even bother to be polite. He directly grabbed the drawing handed over by You Chen and looked at it quickly.
Swish, swish, swish. With Lin Zhi's super fast thinking speed, he completed the preliminary browsing in just a few minutes.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at You Chen as if he was seeing a god: "Chief, these... were all designed by you? I will definitely work hard to help you bring them to this world!" "No, it will no longer be us together, but you. Lin Zhi, these things will be fully developed by you in the future."
"Ok?"
Lin Zhi rarely showed a panicked look, and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I can't do it! Without you as the original designer, if I were to develop it alone, there would definitely be mistakes -"
"It seems that you still don't have a clear understanding of your own abilities."
You Chen interrupted Lin Zhi and said, "Lin Zhi, you are good in every way, but there is one problem - you are too unconfident!"
Lin Zhi just stammered and said nothing after hearing this. Obviously, even if You Chen said this, his thoughts would not change just because of this.
You Chen was not discouraged or helpless because of this. He just smiled and patted Lin Zhi on the shoulder, saying: "If you can't believe in yourself, then believe in me who believes in you! Lin Zhi, I think you have this ability!"
"'Believe in me who believes in you'..."
Hearing this, Lin Zhi fell into a trance for a short time. When he came back to his senses and saw You Chen's encouraging eyes, he finally nodded vigorously: "Leader, although I still don't think I am qualified. But... I will work hard! I will also believe in you who believe in me!"
"Hahaha, this is too confusing. How can ordinary people understand what you are saying?"
You Chen looked at Lin Zhi's dull yet determined expression and laughed out loud for the first time.
Then, with a determined look on his face, he solemnly instructed: "You should have read the drawings I sent you. You can put aside other 'guns' for the time being, and first make that 'Barrett sniper rifle'! Don't consider the cost and consumption, I only ask you to make a qualified product within three years! Can you do it?"
"'Barrett sniper rifle'..."
Lin Zhi suddenly recalled the design drawings he had just browsed, and then his pupils shrank, and he suddenly pulled out a drawing from the stack.
He carefully rubbed a few lines of text with his fingers, muttering to himself in shock: "It's true. This is, this thing is the ultimate weapon for sniping Title Douluo-level strongmen!"
Speaking of this, Lin Zhi imagined in his mind the scene of an ordinary spirit master holding a Barrett and shooting the supreme Titled Douluo, and he couldn't help but feel fear, trembling, and... ready to make a move!
Hand tremor!
His hands holding the drawings couldn't help but tremble violently!
It was as if what he held in his hand was not a thin piece of paper, but a time bomb that was about to explode at any time!
"The ultimate weapon?"
You Chen shook his head, too lazy to explain further.
After all, for a Soul Master, a weapon that can kill a Titled Douluo can indeed be called "ultimate".
So, he just asked, "Are you sure?"
Lin Zhi swallowed his saliva and instinctively wanted to say "no" as usual, but he recalled You Chen's trusting look just now, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "I will try my best!"
