?Having checked the ammunition was made with the common uranium material, Shi Tian didn't bother to inspect further.

Since the ammunition was made with cheap materials. Then naturally the effect wouldn't be that ideal.

However, that still doesn't answer the question of the current circumstances.

As cheap as the material may be, a ton of uranium-made ammunition should still deal quite a load of damage to the Gilaso variants, and not be completely ineffective.

'Seems like I need to do a thorough analysis.' Shi Tian sighed softly, knowing that things would surely not be easy for him.

Ignoring his surroundings, Shi Tian began analyzing all of the Railgun Blaster's features.

Looking at the firing mechanism, he realized it was not a simple pull of the trigger and it fired.

To fire, the user aims the blaster at the target and activates the trigger. And what made it so special was that the electromagnetic coils instantly released a burst of energy, propelling the bullet down the conducting rails.

The rapid acceleration due to the electromagnetic forces sends the bullet hurtling toward the target at hypersonic speeds.

Essentially, this meant that the bullet should have been quite lethal, and penetrated some of the Gilaso variant's tough skins. Yet the expected outcome didn't happen and the Gilaso variant came out unscathed.

'The firing mechanism works properly, so it's not this either.' Shi Tian concluded. Both the ammunition and firing mechanism were functioning as it was meant to be, meaning the problem was something else.

"It's been 5 minutes already," Theobold said, feeling uneasy at how Shi Tian was just inspecting the same thing they were inspecting a while ago.

"Relax, Commander Theobold. Didn't Nathan say 10 minutes?" Vanessa responded.

"I didn't expect Commander Theobold to be an impatient man."

"..."

As much as Theobold wanted to shout that his soldiers were slowly being overwhelmed by the Gilaso variants at this very moment, he could only suppress his emotion temporarily.

However, he might have suppressed his emotion, and Vanessa could discern that Theobold was on the verge of erupting in anger.

Interacting with people like Shi Tian and Mary truly helped her greatly in reading people's thoughts, regardless if they showed it on the surface or not.

'But seriously Nathan. You only have half the time left. It's going to be difficult for me to bail you out if you fail to accomplish it.' Vanessa prayed silently, hoping that Shi Tian could truly do what he had stated.

Although she was going to bail him out anyway, the problem was that it wasn't going to be easy, given Theobold's personality. (f)reenovelkiss.com

While Vanessa was starting to become concerned but kept a calm expression on the surface, Shi Tian was beginning to inspect the interior parts.

"The Railgun Blaster has three features, and each of them is inherently unique." Shi Tian mumbled, narrowing his eyes.

Variable firing modes: single shot, burst, or continuous fire, depending on the user's preference and the model's design.

Adjustable muzzle velocity: Users can often adjust the firing speed of the bullets for different purposes, from precise targeting to long-range assaults.

Energy cell or power source: It may use rechargeable energy cells or advanced power sources capable of providing sustained firing.

Checking thoroughly, Shi Tian didn't find any fault in either of these three features. They were all working perfectly fine.

'Hey, are you positive that the weaponry is indeed faulty? If not, then I'm really screwed here.' Shi Tian communicated with the integrated chip in his mind.

Despite having the information, Shi Tian was more disheartened than happy to find zero fault in any of the intended functions.

Time was ticking down, and he had less than 2 minutes now to find the problem out. Otherwise, Theobold would surely give him a good beating for wasting his time while acting somewhat haughty.

A few seconds later, Shi Tian breathed in relief when the integrated chip responded rather quickly with the status screen appearing in front of him.

Description: The host had only checked the ammunition, firing mechanism, and the three features of the Railgun Blaster. But has the host ever thought about the advantage of the Railgun Blaster?

'The advantage of the Railgun Blaster?' Confused, Shi Tian quickly pondered over the advantages of this type of weapon.

Just like there were three features, Shi Tian was able to think of the three main advantages of the Railgun Blaster.

High velocity and kinetic energy: The bullets can achieve speeds several times faster than conventional firearms, enabling high penetration and impact.

Minimal projectile drop and faster target acquisition, thanks to the impressive velocity of the bullets.

Efficient in various environments. 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝑚

'What's there to be concerned about these three advantages?' Shi Tian then questioned the integrated chip, clearly confused by its reminder. These were merely advantages and didn't affect the functionality of the Railgun Blaster itself.

Description: The host can sometimes be really ignorant. Didn't the host just mention the possibility of how the Gilaso variants were able to avoid detection?

Reading it, Shi Tian suddenly thought about the underground. If even the integrated chip was bringing it up, then it meant his guesses had just been confirmed to be true.

Moles were indeed being utilized to dig a large underground area for the Gilaso variants to reside.

And since underground relates to terrain and terrain correlates with the environment. Then the hint that the integrated chip gave him was regarding the final advantage of the Railgun Blaster.

'The environment is filled with pollution and more impossible things that corrupt the landscape itself which would have never occurred if it weren't for the fissure crack in the sky. So if this relates to the environment, then it could only mean that…' Shi Tian thought to himself and finally understood the integrated chip's meaning.

As Shi Tian figured out the main cause, Theobold suddenly arrived behind him, and his expression was solemn.

"Times up, Nathan! Have you figured out the problem yet, or are you just fooling me?" He asked in a somewhat threatening tone.
