The Undying Mecha Emperor

Chapter 168 Show Us That Weapon

"I have Platinum Grade Blueprints." The Ancestor said calmly. "But you won't be getting your hands on them."

"Aww why? I am pretty sure I can make them as well! Let me see pleaaasee…. Just one? And for just five, no, three seconds!!" I begged the Ancestor with all of my considerable begging ability.

But of course he ignored me.

"Show me what you can do." The Ancestor commanded me.

I sighed and pouted lightly before I produced a Sniper Rifle.

The one which was able to fire two hundred forty rounds per minute, or four bullets per second.

Did I mention that it could do so without recoil?

The Ancestor glanced at Bruce Pang, who immediately pressed something on his communicator.

Instantly but noiselessly, I could sense the room moving.

I was impressed.

Bruce Pang's office could actually move around the academy!

"Super cool!!" I remember thinking naively to myself.

After a few seconds, one of the shelf-filled walls suddenly started to sink below ground, and the office became the starting point of a massive firing range!

"Whoa!" I couldn't help but exclaim in pleasant surprise!

"I am sure you're curious how a Gold Grade Sniper Rifle works." The Ancestor said with a smile. "Feel free to try out all the Gold Grade rifle designs while I observe."

Although I knew that the Ancestor simply wanted to see if my ability to create the weapons were standard or not, I couldn't care less.

As he had said, I really wanted to try out the Gold Grade Rifles!

I eagerly held the rifle up and started to aim at the nearest target down the firing range, at around a hundred meters away.

Both Bruce and the Ancestor started to stare at the rifle very intently to see if it could work as it was designed to.

I sighted down the target and very gently, squeezed the trigger once.

Wham!

A relatively soft sound rang out of the rifle and…

BAM!!!!!

The target a hundred meters away literally blew up!

It was hard to explain how I felt at that moment.

It truly was an amazing Sniper Rifle.

With zero recoil and almost no loud sound accompanying that shot, it was able to very accurately hit its target!

Plus, pulling the trigger of that rifle felt really, really satisfying.

"It's awesome!" I couldn't help but exclaim loudly.

"Awesome? You've seen nothing yet kid. Bring in the wind. Max velocity." The Ancestor said smugly.

"Max velocity? That's 600kph!!" Bruce Pang said with a frown.

The Ancestor turned to look at him and rolled his eyes.

"You think I don't know? I am the one who designed this office, remember?"

"Ah hahaha. Yes, yes of course I remember. Max wind velocity it is. Let me apply the anti-wind clear gel first." Bruce Pang laughed sheepishly and pressed several buttons on his communicator.

Immediately, a thin film of clear gel appeared on the place where the wall once was.

"Anti-wind gel!" I breathed out in wonder.

"Indeed. This gel here will automatically repel the wind. Don't ask me how the physics work. I don't really understand it myself. Suffice to say that it works and works very well indeed." Bruce Pang said as he pressed yet another series of buttons.

After he did that, the flags that was placed down the entire line of the firing range to give the shooter an indication of wind speed started to flap vigorously.

"Two hundred kph. Three. Four. Anddd… Six hundred kph winds. These winds can uproot entire full grown trees." Bruce Pang said with anticipation.

"Aim at the furthest target as you would with no wind." The Ancestor instructed me calmly.

"Are you saying that your bullet is wind resistant?" I asked him incredulously.

It was a very common knowledge that all who wanted to shoot at a target at long range had to compensate for the wind depending on its speed, direction and the bullet's weight.

To shoot across 1 full kilometer over 600kph winds was actually a physical impossibility. No sane sniper would take that shot. It would be easier to shoot at the target completely blindfolded after being spun around at high speed!

"I am not saying anything. I will let that rifle do the talking." The Ancestor said with his smug smile still plastered on his face.

I immediately did as he said and aimed at the furthest target as though there was no wind.

At 600kph, I could clearly see the airflow streaking past the clear anti wind gel.

If anybody stuck their hand through the anti wind gel, he would definitely get his very flesh on his hand ripped out of his bones.

In fact, the entire hand would probably get ripped off.

It was that fast.

Wh-wh-am!!

I fired three shots in quick succession.

KABOOM!!!

The target exploded in the next instant.

It was true.

Anti wind sniper rifle!!

"I've never seen that one before." Bruce Pang said admiringly. "I am assuming that the blueprint is actually for mechas?"

"Yes. It is supposed to be for mechas. The technology is far too clunky to be used in human rifles." The Ancestor nodded while looking at the rifle in my hands with a strange expression on his face.

"You can't take it." I immediately said. "It'll just disperse into energy if it gets too far away from me."

"So you're like a portable weapons depot." The Ancestor grumbled.

"And he's far too valuable to be used that way, even for Gold Grade Weapons." Bruce Pang said with a laugh. "But seriously though. This is going to be a game changer. The first few long range sniper assassinations we take during storms will be a guaranteed success. We need to pick our targets carefully."

"Yes. I know. But that's not what I am after right now." The Ancestor said with a gleam in his eyes.

"No? What are you after then?" Bruce Pang asked excitedly.

"Come on. Show us that weapon." The Ancestor urged me.

I smiled at them and with a single thought, I changed the shape of the sniper rifle with a flourish.
