Chapter 144 - Choosing Weaponry

Chapter 144: Choosing Weaponry

“There are mainly two things to discuss for the meeting today!

“Firstly, I’d like to inform you of the decision that the Twin Dragon Mount fort will start a company on Earth and work with Su Mingcheng’s company to study the Black Mud and the Stone Milk. You’re free to offer your suggestions on this matter.

“Secondly, we need to discuss how we should deal with the Eagle Men for the Ten-Species Competition quest!”

In the conference hall on the Twin Dragon Mount, Ji Ye spoke from the host’s seat.

On the fifth day after the second batch of players had spent a full month in the game, a meeting exclusively made of Chosen Ones was held in the Twin Dragon Mount fort!

On this day, everybody who was qualified to attend the meeting was back online. Nobody was absent.

In fact, according to Ji Ye’s plan, they were actually the first batch of personnel who would be entitled to the profits from the cooperation with Su Mingcheng’s company.

“We’ll start a company on Earth?”

Most people seemed surprised to hear what Ji Ye said.

“Su Mingcheng’s company? That’s a familiar name.”

Some locals from Yang City remembered the company, and Elder Jiao, Elder Meng, and other people who knew Su Nongying’s connection to the company glanced at her who was sitting next to Ji Ye.

“Well… This is about the terms of the cooperation. Theoretically speaking, everybody here is entitled to share the profits of the company!”

Then, Su Nongying told everybody the details of the partnership as well as the plan for the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s future development on Earth.

Most players were excited after hearing her out.

It was not just because of the pecuniary prospect, but also because the Twin Dragon Mount fort had started planning on Earth, and maybe some of them would grow into important celebrities on Earth someday!

But the discussion on the planning on Earth soon came to an end, because it was only just a blueprint at this moment, and it could only be realized if the Twin Dragon Mount fort persisted here!

Therefore, everybody soon focused their attention on the Eagle Men, who were the human beings’ only competitor at this moment.

“According to Chief Ruan, the Eagle Men had no unusual action or mobilization in the past days. They only seemed to be defending themselves on high alert!”

“Maybe it’s because they knew that their spy had been killed by Brother Ji,” said Su Nongying.

“Are the Eagle Men concocting a scheme?”

“I have the same question. Considering how unrestrained the Eagle Men are, they should’ve tried to kill some of us for revenge after knowing their Commander was killed by us, right?”

“That’s right. I saw on the forum that the Eagle Men that other settlements ran into were both strong and brutal. I don’t think our Eagle Men are reacting normally!”

Many people were confused about the Eagle Men’s reaction.

“In fact, this is the right thing to do for the Eagle Men!

“Firstly, in terms of the speed of the settlement’s advancement and the number of alien territories one occupies, we are faster and more than the Eagle Men. After their spy died and we had grown vigilant, they might suffer a loss and lose the ability to compete with us if they broke into our territory recklessly!

“Secondly, they lost a great treasure after the failed sneak-in. Now, they have to worry that we might sneak into their territory. So, their reaction isn’t weird.”

Elder Meng, however, stroked his beard and inferred what the Eagle Men were thinking.

“Thirdly, the Eagle Men are aggressive to other human settlements only because those settlements aren’t the Twin Dragon Mount fort!”

Ji Ye opened his mouth and added.

“In fact, we needn’t speculate what scheme the Eagle Men is concocting because it’s hard to guess what is in another civilization and species’ mind.

“We might as well focus our attention on the combat abilities of human beings and the Eagle Men and consider how we can gain advantages in individual battles. We now have a bigger population. If we’re also stronger than them individually, it will be impossible for them to defeat us!”

It was obvious that those who logged offline had looked up information on the Eagle Men on the forum.

Then, it was inevitable that they were more or less intimidated by the Eagle Men who had won most encounters with human beings.

However, the Twin Dragon Mount didn’t have to fear the Eagle Men at all!

Not only did the fort have dozens of Extraordinary soldiers, but it also had almost ten Commanders!

Besides, those Commanders were all above the rank of Excellent, not to mention that Wu Song had successfully reached Extraordinary Rank-5 the previous day too.

When they had absolute advantages in strength, odds were slim for the Eagle Men to win a battle with a scheme.

Actually, Ji Ye was more worried about the possibility that the Eagle Men would simply hide in their settlement, which would make it harder to finish them off.

While the quest of the Ten-Species Competition had been announced, judging from what happened to the first settlement’s quests, the quests on the Land of Inheritance weren’t compulsory.

If the Eagle Men didn’t care about the quest and simply adopted a defensive strategy, the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s only choice would be to attack, and the case would be different if they had to break into the Eagle Men’s territory.

“The golden light on each of the Eagle Men is strongly protective, and their green light can significantly improve their speed and make arrows fly more than three hundred meters while maintaining their momentum and precision.

“Besides, they must be in possession of a certain technology that can allow the regular Eagle Men to make use of those extraordinary powers too!

“It’s safe to say that they have natural advantages to defend their settlement. Their advantages are even greater than the Metal Men’s!” said Ji Ye.

The second conclusion was drawn from Wu Xiong.

“Wu Xiong” was originally an Ordinary Rank-6 soldier. Even though he was possessed by the Commander Eagle Man, he shouldn’t have been able to use the golden light and the green light, which were the Eagle Men’s exclusive skills, because they weren’t exactly soul skills.

The fact that he used those skills proved that the Eagle Men had ways to let ordinary members make use of the Extraordinary power indirectly!

However, the earthlings also had ways to make ordinary people indirectly control Extraordinary power, and those ways were guns!

“Therefore, our most important task right now is to manufacture guns as quickly as possible.

“Also, based on our current intelligence, the guns against regular Eagle Men need a destructive range of at least two hundred meters, and those against their Commons should be highly destructive and precise with a range of more than five hundred meters!”

“My suggestion is that we focus on rifles and put machine guns and pistols aside for now.

“The shooting range for pistols is too short and can’t kill the Eagle Men, and the machine guns will consume too many bullets. The red gunpowder that we have is refined from the ores from the Sludge Monsters’ territory. It’s an Extraordinary resource, and its productivity isn’t high enough for machine guns yet.”

After receiving a hint from Ji Ye, Li Qing, who had been given the task to collect gun-making technologies before he got offline, began to speak.

“Also, I suggest we build special sniper rifles against the Extraordinary Eagle Men. I’ve written some specifications on guns. You can tell me which of them will be the best prototype.”

Li Qing took out a piece of paper where the parameters and performances of certain guns were written and gave it to everyone.

It was worth mentioning that a player who worked in a toilet paper factory had found a purpose for the green trees, which had the largest number in the Sludge Monsters’ territory. Those trees were particularly suitable to be toilet paper materials.

At the very least, the players at the Twin Dragon Mount fort didn’t have to worry about going to the toilets as those from other settlements did.

“AK47. Effective shooting range: 300m. It’s sturdy and has a low faulty rate. It can be used in various environments, and it’s easy to make. Shortcomings: the high recoil and the lack of precision when fired consecutively…

“Barrett M82A1. Effective shooting range… It’s astonishingly powerful and penetrative. Shortcomings: Low shooting speed, and heaviness…

“M16, AWM sniper rifles…”

The information of more than ten guns was written on the paper that Li Qing took out!

“You’ve got the designs and the technical details for so many guns?”

Shang Yan’s eyes widened.

She wasn’t really surprised at Li Qing’s knowledge of the confidential information.

In fact, under the Confederate government’s Honor System, one could even get the technologies to build nuclear bombs if they had enough Honor.

Some companies, to win the players’ favor, offered information on their products for free and even sent staff for personal guidance!

However, while it was one thing to gain access to the information, it was another thing to remember it and bring it back to the Land of Inheritance.

“Well, I synchronized some of my memory abilities with the Rare Honor before I logged off,” Li Qing nodded and said.

The Stone Milk in the Twin Dragon Mount fort could build up one’s mind. As a veteran scout, Li Qing had good memories in the first place, and after synchronizing these abilities, while he dare not say that he could remember everything he saw, he was confident of copying the designs after trying to memorize them!

In fact, not just Li Qing, Elder Jiao, Elder Meng, and the other people who were given specific tasks had also synchronized their memory abilities, which had been enhanced by the Stone Milk.

Since it would consume the providence of the settlement for them to log off, this could maximize the returns for each log-off they made.

Ji Ye was quite delighted about that. With everyone thinking about the future of the Twin Dragon Mount fort, how could the Eagle Men defeat them?

“Okay, I’ll leave the guns to you and Elder Jiao,” Ji Ye looked at Li Qing and said.

“I’ll ask Tang Long and Ling Zhen to work with you. Just apply to Nongying if you need materials or parts that have to be transformed through the Stones of Civilization. There’s no need to let me know.

“Let’s try to manufacture guns before the final battle against the Eagle Men!”

Li Qing’s main task when he was offline was to learn the structure of guns, whereas Elder Jiao was asked to learn about the machines that they could use to make guns.

Since the very beginning, the Twin Dragon Mount fort had never intended to build one or two Extraordinary guns manually. They aimed to manufacture guns in bulks.

They were confident in doing so because “electricity”, an important prerequisite for industrialization, had partly been taken care of.

Actually, after conquering the Metal Men’s territory, the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s spoils included not just the metal materials.

The lake of Silver Liquid, which used to be the Metal Men’s settlement core, could generate electricity continuously. When some of the Silver Liquid was taken out, it could even be used as a power source, and when the electricity in them ran out, it could be recharged in the lake again!

“Also, because the Metal Men’s territory is very far away from the Eagle Men’s, we can totally build a real workshop in the Metal Men’s territory and turn it into our industrial base.”

Elder Jiao’s face was filled with excitement. He seemed to have turned into the hardworking young man he used to be.
