Bizarre Realm-Chapter 210 - 29: Explosive Gun Concept

"Mr. Shawn!"

Succubus - Veronica was evidently meticulously dressed tonight. She wore a deep red gown that resembled an evening dress, adorned with delicate lace edges. Her chest revealed a deep, white, lush valley, and the slit of the gown extended to nearly the waist, exposing long white slender thighs that were full of power, seemingly capable of easily strangling a strong man. Around her fair neck hung a finely crafted ruby necklace, while the faint purple demon tattoo on her collarbone made her appear especially enchanting and beautiful.

Veronica used the Transformation Treasure Pearl to conceal her demon side, retracting her Demon’s Wings, and her stinger-tipped tail was nowhere to be seen. Her feet mimicked human appearance, revealing slender and petite ankles.

After this transformation, she seemed to diminish somewhat the dangerous aura of a demon, adding a touch of womanly delicacy and intoxicating allure.

Shawn nodded slightly, saying, "Please, come in."

They were probably visiting today regarding the business deal with Hellfire. Shawn had already disposed of plenty of Extraordinary Relics he acquired last time; the most valuable were the relics from the Lizardman Leader and the Ancient Race, amounting to over twelve thousand Soul Stones.

In Abyss City, when there are too many Soul Stones, they are exchanged for equivalent Curios and Relics, and sometimes Soul Gems are used as higher-value currency.

Soul Gems mostly come from upgraded Transcendents, valued from hundreds to thousands of Soul Stones.

Compared to Soul Stones, which are fairly ordinary, the souls of mortals, animals, and some odd souls may all nurture Soul Stones. Soul Worms can also be ritualistically turned into Soul Stones through mass ’Alchemy of Flesh and Blood.’

Legendary Soul Crystal Stones are difficult to value.

Compared to the rather crafty Succubus - Veronica, the Fire Burning Demon seemed much more direct. It did not sit on Shawn’s sofa because it would burn the furniture; its body temperature was too high. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

This Fire Burning Demon eagerly said to Shawn, "Mr. Shawn, having a stake in Hellfire poses absolutely no issue."

"I also happen to need considerable funds for research."

"Moreover, I’m very intrigued by the Explosive Gun you mentioned. This firearm is unheard of, even in the Dorne Region."

Upon hearing the Fire Burning Demon’s words, Shawn immediately shifted his gaze away from the Succubus’s proud peaks.

He tossed aside the Succubus and eagerly walked to the desk, where the Invisible Hand picked up a pen and drew on the blueprint, speaking in a deep voice, "This is a bold concept."

"Conventional firearms are already ineffective against high-tier monsters."

"Thus, we need something with greater power."

"The Explosive Gun, as its name suggests, is a firearm whose bullets explode; it would be heavier than ordinary firearms, needing to be paired with a bit of Extraordinary Relic ammunition. Recently, I researched some Alchemy Materials from the Fire Element Plane and found that some Elemental Materials are quite suitable as explosives."

"Of course, it’s not that stable."

Due to the blessing of Reading Magic, Shawn learns anything quickly; he can memorize an entire book in ten minutes, although digesting it takes more time.

With the upgrade in his brain’s hardware, Shawn’s understanding ability also improves; he feels his brain is almost evolving into a low-end biological computer.

The Fire Burning Demon listened intently, nodding while posing its own questions.

In truth, Shawn had conceived the idea of the Explosive Gun long ago.

Initially, when he was in Dorne City, he acquired some special bullets from the logistics department of the Night Watcher, under Hank’s guidance. Using Extraordinary Relics and Alchemy Marks, the power was considerable, resembling a cannonball with each bullet fired, very fierce.

However, these bullets are rare and cumbersome to produce, and the real world doesn’t possess so many Extraordinary Relics.

Back then, Shawn pondered why conventional firearms were used to fire these bullets, and why a larger caliber couldn’t be used, why not design a specialized large firearm for firing such bullets?

Shawn was limited by his cognitive thinking back then and didn’t delve deeper into these questions.

Now, having reshaped his self-recognition, he feels that everything can be realized, and bullets produced from the Alchemy Path already serve as the foundational design for the Explosive Gun.

"An Alchemy Demigod can design something like an Antimatter Rifle, why can’t I develop a high-power Explosive Gun?"

"I’m an Earthling."

"Well-versed with firearms, and the traditional casting combat mode may not suit me, so I need more powerful firearms."

"If possible, I’d even like to create a railgun."

Not far away, Succubus - Veronica bit her seductive red lips. Initially, she clearly noticed Shawn’s gaze drawn by her proud figure. As an upgraded Succubus, she was very confident in this aspect, because she’s a world’s supreme enchantress to men, capable of granting them unprecedented pleasure and joy, albeit with a small price to pay (Constitution absorption).

However, before she could deploy her charm techniques, Shawn was captivated entirely by a sentence from the Fire Burning Demon, and the two men were eagerly discussing the Explosive Gun concept, completely leaving her aside.

She is not a Succubus who relied solely on charm tactics to carve out a foundation; Transcendents who cross-path advance to Charm Mage possess extraordinary willpower, as cross-path advancement itself is quite challenging.
