Chapter 38 The Ultimate Weapon Arrives

"Did you get it?"

Shen Xing's eyes lit up as he read the message, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Because it was much faster than he had expected.

Although I haven't been urged or asked for a specific time these past few days, it doesn't mean I'm not in a hurry.

After all, the sooner we get this stuff, the better!

"I just got it, but boss, things might have taken a little wrong." Xiaoling's text message seemed to reveal some worry.

Shen Xing made a voice call directly.

"Boss?" came Xiaoling's panting voice and the sound of running.

"How are you now? Are you safe?"

"It's very safe, thank you for your concern, boss." Xiaoling seemed a little touched.

It's rare to find a boss who prioritizes employee safety.

"So, what happened?" Shen Xing asked, letting out a sigh of relief.

"Those guys, we had agreed on a price, and I even paid the deposit, but then they suddenly changed their minds." Xiaoling still seemed quite angry when she talked about it. "They realized I had connections, and they wanted me to introduce them to the source of the basic essence liquid."

"You're paying with basic elemental liquid?" Shen Xing understood.

"Well, for these hyenas, basic elemental liquid is more attractive than money, because even if they have money, they can't easily buy resources in large quantities," Xiaoling explained.

"Judging from your expression, you obviously didn't agree." Shen Xing narrowed his eyes slightly. "But you still got something."

"Yeah, I used a fake account to pretend to be my supplier and then tricked them into buying the goods," Xiaoling said crisply. "Those guys even had people lying in ambush at the pickup location, but luckily I was quick-witted and probably didn't get caught."

"."

For a moment, Shen Xing didn't know what to say.

Even though Xiaoling made it sound simple, he could tell that the process was probably not simple at all.

They were completely outmaneuvered.

"Don't worry, boss, it won't involve you." Xiaoling thought Shen Xing was worried, and her tone became a little nervous.

She didn't have to explain so much to Shen Xing, since she had already gotten the items.

But I told the truth anyway.

It can be said that Shen Xing is the person she cares about most right now—because Shen Xing may be her only chance to change her fate.

"Do you think I'd worry about a bunch of thugs who can only hide in XZ?" Shen Xing chuckled twice. "I'm just praising your abilities."

This is the truth.

When he first heard Xiaoling say that "something has gone wrong," he was prepared to step in and salvage the situation.

But to my surprise, she solved everything herself.

This ability truly impressed him.

"Hehe, isn't it because we have the boss backing us up?" Xiaoling chuckled twice, offering a flattering remark.

Clearly, her gamble paid off this time. Just as she guessed, her boss was not someone who was afraid of trouble.

As long as she can get what she wants, what she did is nothing.

"What is it?" Shen Xing began to become interested in what she had received.

"The boss will be absolutely satisfied!" Xiaoling's tone brightened. "Those guys really got their hands on some good stuff this time. I'll have someone deliver it to the vicinity of the boss's residence first thing tomorrow morning. There will be a complete set of instructions inside, and the boss will understand once he takes a look."

"Still playing mysterious with me?" Shen Xing laughed. "Alright, I'll look forward to it... Also, in the regular academies, aren't there many students with considerable martial arts skills who were just rejected by the martial arts academy?"

"Of course, that's what the boss wants," Xiaoling seemed to realize something, and her voice couldn't help but rise a little.

"Okay, I'll give you a batch of special resources later. You can recruit some people and then expand the business," Shen Xing said. "It was your idea of ​​armed forces that gave me the inspiration. I have the resources here, and you don't need to rob anyone. Just expand your influence and protect the sale of resources."

This was indeed a thought that arose after learning of the existence of armed gangs.

I was initially worried that expanding my subordinate forces would attract the attention of Academy City.

However, even those people in Academy City don't care much, so what's his little commotion?

More importantly, having such a group of subordinates makes many things much easier.

For example, this time.

Without Xiaoling, if he relied on himself, who knows how much effort and time he would have had to expend.

Xiaoling was naturally very excited.

She knew that this meant not only that her rights and wealth could increase further, but more importantly, it meant that she had truly come to the boss's side, and was no longer just a supplier who could be replaced at any time.

"I'll work hard and won't let the boss down!"

Shen Xing could hear Xiao Ling patting her chest.

"Alright, it's already flat. If you keep shooting, it might dent." He chuckled and joked. "Keep it up. Don't neglect your martial arts skills either. You might get some surprises in the future."

"Uh-huh!"

After ending the communication, Shen Xing began to look forward to what Xiao Ling had obtained.

For Xiaoling to describe it in that tone, and even keep it a secret, it must be something special.

They continued their practice until the second day.

After receiving Xiaoling's message, Shen Xing went downstairs and, sure enough, found his own package at the pickup point.

It was quite large, reaching all the way to his chest, and at least 1.3 to 1.4 meters tall.

After eagerly taking it back to the dormitory, opening the package, and seeing what was inside, even Shen Xing couldn't help but gasp.

This is a long, rectangular piece of equipment. At the slightly thicker end is a turbine engine wrapped in a fine mesh, while at the thinner end is a muzzle about fifteen millimeters in diameter.

That's right, this is a fully automatic cruise drone equipped with a large-caliber electromagnetic gun muzzle!

"A true weapon of mass destruction."

Shen Xing picked up the instruction manual and looked at the various parameters, becoming more and more amazed.

Its maximum flight altitude can reach over 2,400 meters, and its maximum speed is a whopping 720 kilometers per hour, which is 60% of the speed of sound! The initial velocity of the bullets fired from the muzzle is as high as 1,100 meters per second! The magazine capacity is as high as 600 rounds, and the maximum rate of fire can reach 200 rounds per minute!

In addition, there's the 15mm bullet diameter.

Drones + Barrett missiles + machine guns?

Shen Xing could already imagine its power.

If this were an open area, and someone were firing down from a high vantage point, they would die, let alone someone in the Marrow Refining stage, even someone in the Dirty Refining stage!

However, Shen Xing also knew that in the Human Federation, or even just on the Academy's home planet, such weapons were nothing. Drones would be detected as soon as they took off and easily interfered with. In addition, kinetic weapons were easy to defend against. Not to mention those field defense devices, even some good protective suits could block them.

At most, they can only launch a sneak attack.

It's not surprising that it ended up in the hands of a group of students.
