Tokyo underground city

Chapter 302 Iron-making Angel

The person who appeared in front of Lin Huaien was a young man in his twenties.

But unlike ordinary Tokyoites, he has a dark complexion and the facial contours and features of Southeast Asians.

Combined with what he said was his "mother from Bombay", Lin Huaien immediately realized his identity:

"Mixed?"

"Ah, yes, I'm a quarter Sikh."

Hojo Nobugo nodded. He was wearing a heavy engineer's uniform and oil-stained insulating gloves on his hands. Only his upper body was exposed and he only wore a vest——

"Sister Xuan and the others have already told me your purpose of coming. Come in first."

"'already told'?"

Lin Huai'en was a little shocked. He had been by Chi Yechen's side and had no impression of her picking up the phone.

"It's my men."

Kaoru nodded and reminded him with a smile.

Lin Huai'en then remembered that there were several members of the inconspicuous [Red Leaf Group] in the war room at that time.

But...it seems to be called [Crimson Chun King] now?

Lin Huai'en thought for a moment, and just as he was about to open his mouth, he saw the scene in the factory. He was shocked -

"this is……?!"

"That's right, the [Armor] version without increasing the price when the quantity is increased."

Hojo Nobugo stroked the red armor beside him, looking at it as if he was looking at his lover.

Lin Huai'en looked at the individual combat armor that was more than three meters high and looked like a [big armor] in front of him, and his heart was mixed with shock and speechlessness——

Originally, he thought that Mr. Big Head's "Mingguang Armor" was already quite handsome, but he didn't expect to see even more in Tokyo -

[Excellent murder weapon].

"This kind of thing shouldn't be usable in the dungeon, right?"

Lin Huai'en just calculated the combat consumption and understood the purpose of this individual exoskeleton, which is about 3 meters tall.

"Of course."

Hojo Shingo glanced at Lin Huaien and nodded:

"The so-called [Ascending Suppression] is nothing more than magic power deficiency syndrome. As long as the magic power concentration is increased in the exoskeleton, even a purple card explorer like Sister Xuan can use her full strength on the ground."

"It was invented for the sole purpose of killing the purification troops of the Black Diamond Group!"

When Hojo Shingo mentioned the Black Diamond Group, he showed gnashed hatred.

But when Lin Huai'en immediately turned to look at Chiyechan, the red-haired female commander just looked at Lin Huai'en and nodded:

"For the time being, we are only using it as a defensive weapon."

Lin Huai'en nodded, already understanding what Chi Yechen meant:

"Then what's the method you mentioned to reforge the [Martyr's Sword]?"

“We’re going to use industrial forging presses.”

Hojo Shingo took over what Akaba Cheng said: "The difficulty of blacksmithing is that it requires continuous input of magic power in conjunction with skills during forging."

"But it doesn't limit what kind of tools are used when forging."

"So strictly speaking, equipment such as casting blast furnaces and 10,000-ton forging presses are [forging tools] that are no different from [hammers] in the eyes of blacksmithing."

"Industrial forging!"

Lin Huai'en gasped and immediately understood what was going on.

"The forging technology of [Black Armor] only uses ordinary industrial forging. Parts involving key parts still require manual loading by magic pattern masters."

"But here in Xinwu, we have completed [Collaborative Forging]."

Akaba Kwan pointed at the [Iron Angels] members on the forging bridge in the factory: "They can now use forging technology just like they use [collective magic], so this is also the reason why we dare to challenge 'Darenji Musashi' ."

In Lin Huai'en's eyes, the three "blacksmiths" were concentrating on taking care of the heavy forging machine in front of them. The expressions on their faces were no different from Kamiya Chun in the workshop——

It's just that the tools they use to forge steel are different.

Amidst the roar of the 10,000-ton forging press, Hojo Shingo took a look at the silver flash ore in Lin Huaien's hand and threw it into the crucible. The industrial-level forging firepower was unmatched by the Tianshui family's blacksmith furnace. It quickly melted into a ball of silver molten iron.

"What you want is a katana that can be used to perform [Drawing Technique], right?"

The dark-skinned mixed-race young man took the [Martyr Sword] from Lin Huai'en and looked at it: "This thing was melted by the thunder element. Did you use it to connect the arc gun?"

"It's [Rainbow Skill]."

Lin Huai'en didn't know how to explain [Imitation] and [Eight Divine Thunder] to him, so he could only vaguely mention it to it.

"[Rainbow Skill]?! Being able to survive a lightning strike of this intensity...is indeed the person that Sister Xie has taken a liking to."

Hojo Shingo didn't know what he had made wrong, but neither Lin Huai'en nor Akaba Kawan had any intention of explaining.

Because it can be seen from the young man's eyes that he is very interested in this newly taken over topic:

"If you use [Drawing Sword Technique], the weight of this long sword will be too light."

"...'Use magic power to bear 50% of the physical consumption.' This long sword was originally intended to be a lightweight combat weapon. Are you planning to use it as a conventional weapon?"

"No, I want it to be a disposable ejection device."

Lin Huai'en thought for a while and replied.

When fighting on the ground, [Shadow Stealth] and [Azure Dragon Twist] are relatively restrictive, and [Drawing Sword Technique], as "a special combat technique that can develop the scabbard", has strong potential that can be tapped.

Considering the performance conflict of Gray-Green Fury, what Lin Huai'en wants most is to make the Martyr's Sword into a [special equipment] specially prepared for the sword-drawing technique.

"Special equipment..."

Hojo Shingo understood Lin Huaien's thoughts just by hearing his description.

He lowered his head and thought for a while, and suddenly made a decision:

"Since it is a special equipment for drawing swords, it is almost necessary to gain weight——"

"Then the weapon form is the katana. Although the long sword is good, it is still too slow for the sword drawing technique."

"And because when the blade melted, part of the thunder element penetrated into the inside of the sword, then I will help you make the blade into a magnetically sensitive material, then wrap a magnetic induction coil and a high-flux capacitor inside the scabbard, and finally connect an external lightning Elemental crystal nuclei serve as energy supply facilities.”

"In this way, when you use [Drawing Sword Technique], you will be able to gain additional power through the thunder element crystal core!"

Lin Huai'en was dumbfounded when he heard Hojo Shingo's manufacturing plan.

Judging from his description, he did consider Lin Huai'en as a dungeon explorer, but the new [Martyr Sword] sounded unusually bloated.

"I'm not making mecha weapons, I'm just equipping them for people..."

Lin Huai'en somewhat helplessly reminded Hojo of his enlightenment.

However, the young man just patted Lin Huai'en on the shoulder with some pride——

"Don't worry, I will set the lowest power level so that you can use it with bare hands!"

.

"Sorry, Hojo is too used to developing [armor] equipment."

Walking out of the [Ironmaking Workshop] together with Lin Huai'en who was a little exhausted, Chiye Xuan looked at Lin Huai'en's expression and felt slightly apologetic.

"No, it's nothing. It's still within the acceptable range."

Lin Huaien shook his head.

Hojo Shingo's final reason for persuading Lin Huaien was not to ensure that the power of the new weapon would be within the range that he could control.

But——

"Such equipment is not uncommon in mid-level dungeons."

Hojo Shingo shook his head and rejected Lin Huaien's idea of ​​"making it lighter".

He looked at Lin Huaien's eyes sparkling:

"I know that an explorer like you must have set the deep dungeon as the end point."

"But there is also a strong competitive relationship in the middle-level dungeon. If you don't think about how to deal with those [robbers], you will lose your troops in the middle-level dungeon!"

Lin Huai'en understood what Hojo Shingo said.

Although the exoskeleton is only useful on the ground, it can still play a certain role at the depth of 20 to 25 floors.

This is like a sailing warship intended for long-distance transportation encountering a rowing pirate ship that only considers short-distance raids. It is normal to suffer a hidden loss when the size is similar.

"…Also, in addition to [writing], I really need to add some combat skills against armored units."

Lin Huai'en recalled the hard days when [Curse Return] was ineffective.

At that time, he could only use "Star Deer Forest".

So after much thought, he accepted Hojo Shingo's approach.

"If you want to do it, do it to the extreme. The worst is, unless you use the sword drawing technique, you will never take out the [Martyr Sword] again."

Lin Huai'en reorganized his fighting system in his heart, and returned to the slums with Chiye Xuan.

To be honest, the resting place that Akabahachi arranged for him was much cleaner and tidier than he imagined.

Through the broken windows at night, you can see a slum that looks like a rust plain. Due to the lack of a strong enough steel support structure, except for a few places like the [Armed Armor] factory, most ordinary Shinjuku residents can only live in In a shack with only one floor.

"Everyone lives with relief supplies, and the government distributes second-hand mobile phones to residents in Shinjuku City, so they can still live in a state of drunkenness and dreams."

Looking at Lin Huai'en's gaze, Chi Yeqiu said calmly: "But a small number of people still want to live more like human beings, so we stand up to fight against the government."

"...In the end, we don't want to change anything, and we can't change anything."

Akaba Cheng sighed: "We are just showing our value to the superiors..."

"Then I hope that when the power of the superior person changes, I can get something that belongs to me."

.

"Then, there's only so much we can do to help you."

Hojo Shingo's work was very efficient, and he completed the design and manufacture of the new weapon in just one night.

When the newly forged [Martyr's Sword] was delivered to Lin Huai'en, there was even heat from the forging still remaining on it.

The person who handed [Chidori] to Lin Huaien was a forger of [Iron Angel]. He was wearing a dirty engineer uniform similar to that of Hojo Nobugo, and his face was full of vigor and hope:

"Master Hojo went to bed. He asked me to tell you that the name of the new weapon is [Chidori], and it can be used with [Superman Arms] used in conjunction with exoskeletons."

"[Chidori]...[Raikiri]?"

Lin Huai'en understood the reason why Hojo Shingo named the "New Martyr's Sword" "Chidori".

Both the material and design principles of the new weapon are very suitable for this new name.

After getting the [Chidori], Lin Huai'en only used one knife to cut off the wrist-thick alloy trial stakes on the [Self-Police Group] training ground.

According to Akaba, this test beheading pile is made of soft exoskeleton-like metal, and its toughness is equivalent to the limbs of a black armored exoskeleton.

"This power... is almost superior to my [Red Lotus Flower] ordinary strike."

Chiye Xuan looked at the broken pile in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

Lin Huai'en looked at the broken pile in front of him and was a little surprised:

"This power is indeed beyond my imagination."

You know, strictly speaking, he has not yet used the enhanced skill of [Drawing Sword Technique].

It was just a simple test of the [Electromagnetic Ejection] performance of [Chidori] itself.

However, Lin Huai'en looked at his right hand, which was painfully twisted by Chidori, and frowned:

"However, for now, I can no longer enhance the attack power of [Chidori]. Just controlling its current power is already approaching the limit of my skills."

In other words, if it cannot hit anyone, then the power of [Chidori] will be useless.

However, [Drawing Sword Technique] has an advantage.

As long as it is related to the scabbard, it can be infinitely strengthened.

Whether it is a pressure-assisted sword-drawing technique or an electromagnetic ejection-type sword-drawing technique, as long as the corresponding magic pattern materials are available, it can be made——

"Although compared to the pneumatic ejection-type sword-drawing technique, the electromagnetic ejection-type sword-drawing technique is more than several times more demanding..."

"But the power is also increased several times."

Lin Huai'en looked at the prerequisites for [Electromagnetic Strengthening] and couldn't help but sigh.
