Chapter 114 Mass Evolution (9)
Chapter 114 Mass Evolution (9)
It took some time, my internal systems saying that it took a month but it had felt as if only seconds had passed. I could say that only seconds passed, however I wasn't going to do that. Instead I was going to stick with hard logic rather than some gut feeling that was inevitably wrong.
Looking down at my arm, I reattached the system that I had integrated the chip into and immediately my senses bloomed.
It was like I was looking through murky glass my whole life but now it had been broken down.
Equations that once took dozens of seconds now only took nanoseconds.
I could calculate the optimal range and place where I would need to be to engage in combat in moments instead of the seconds.
Looking back at the rifle that I had put aside, the equations flew past my mind and were integrated into the chip which then spat back out more accurate solutions.
Immediately, without wasting any time I worked to integrate these into the rifle.
…
BANG BANG BANG BOOM
Three bullets were launched at once before the rifle exploded in my hands.
Again I backpedaled to get out of the range of the explosion.
I smiled, this was only the first try and already the rifle was able to shoot off three shots before it exploded.
The new chip had allowed me to run through numerous more calculations before I had to gather more data. This was my first attempt at gathering data, I was not expecting it to work this well but already I was filled with more calculations, each one more precise in finding the error.
Once more I surprised myself, I wasn't expecting some technology that I had picked up on a whim to work so well.
I nodded to myself affirming my pride with a praise of 'Good job' in my head.
Placing one of my stickers on my arm, I smile to myself at a job well done. Soon though I get back to work, the calculations having gone as far as they could with the data that I had gathered.
Again I constructed the updated blueprint and again it failed.
However I was seeing progress after this try too, which was better than the spontaneous successes that I had.
I preferred the methodical progression that I had now. Before when I was researching it was a process of failing and seeing what worked and I was fine with that, it didn't always mean that I was going to progress but it was steady. But now that I could simulate all of the factors with the right data I could cut out 90 percent of the process speeding up my research.
With those thoughts in the back of my head I started the process of data gathering and calculations.
…
BANG BANG BANG
BANG BANG BANG
I smiled, placing a sticker on the gun, I had succeeded. That was the fifth test, and so far the rifle had held up. The metal holding the insides may have been weathered but that was only because I had chosen the lowest quality metal on purpose.
The reason for that being that if it worked with low quality materials then the high quality materials I would use for my actual rifle would give it extra durability and reliability.
Other than that the mechanisms inside had not been damaged at all, the functions that they had were created for working just fine.
Looking down at my personal rifle, the calculations and blueprints for an upgraded form running through my head, I pick it up.
With a reverence that I reserved for only my own personal equipment I start to dissasmble it.
Piece by piece, the rifle started to dissemble itself under my deft fingers. Parts were being taken out and placed in neat piles according to what I was going to take out entirely and what I would upgrade with new pieces.
…
I gazed at my new rifle, the upgraded parts had allowed it to be even more deadly than it previously was.
Aiming at a random distance, for there were no objects to target in the distance, I pulled the trigger.
BOOM
The bullet flies, the rate at which it accelerates allowing for it to be fast enough to evade my regular sensors.
However when I turned to my combat sensors I was able to accurately find the bullet, it had already traveled over 4 miles in the second that I had changed from when I had initially shot it.
"Hm" I hum outloud feeling a weird sensation overtake my body.
'Wait, I've felt this' I thought to myself correlating the feeling to when I had first arrived.
"NO, NO, NO" I desperately shouted, I did not want to go. Despite the great advancements that I had made, I could make so much more if only I had been given more time.
But whatever was pulling me out cared not for my pleading as soon after my sensors was filled with a void. Not nothing, a void. Interspaced between the nothings of the void were patches of some sort of energy though I could not pick up on what it was.
As soon as I sensed that I was gone, it was as if hundreds of hours had passed and none at all. It was weird.
Immediately after I could, I consulted my internal clock but it had as much of a clue as I did.
"Tsk" I click my tongue. Looking at Darwin, who had barely moved from when I had left, I should know as I had cataloged his position as part of my experiment, I moved towards him.
However before I could talk to him my babbling disciple had rushed to me with speed that was uncharacteristic of her and shoved a notebook in my face.
It looked like she wanted to say something but the excitement was not allowing her to, my guess was that whatever Rhea wanted to say was written in this notebook.
