Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 456 - 455: Battle Blade

Since the form of the long blade is quite suitable, Jiang Cheng decided to use the long blade as the shape of the weapon.

After confirming the shape of the weapon, it’s time to consider the material.

Of course, the destructive power of the weapon is also a very important aspect.

If it’s just about crafting a simple long blade, it can hardly penetrate the defense of Humanoid Armor.

If the destructive power is insufficient, it would be like scratching an itch in front of Humanoid Armor.

No matter how sharp ordinary cold weapons are made, breaking through Humanoid Armor’s defense is still very difficult.

This problem is a bit tricky; even Jiang Cheng finds it not easy to solve.

Cold weapons, after all, are unlike firearms; you can only work on shape and material rather than improving certain dynamics.

The defense of Humanoid Armor cannot be mimicked by ordinary firearms, let alone cold weapons.

Wanting a long blade’s destructive power to break through Humanoid Armor’s defense is a very challenging task.

If someone else researches this, they might just be dumbfounded.

However, such a tricky problem does not stump Jiang Cheng; he has ways to overcome the limitations of cold weapons’ destructive power.

Ultimately, Jiang Cheng finalized the weapon manufacturing plan, which is to add some features to the long blade to enhance the weapon’s destructive power.

Since a mere cold weapon cannot achieve such destructive power, additional technology must be incorporated to make the destructive power sufficient.

The technology Jiang Cheng prepared to use is plasma technology, intending to affix plasma onto the long blade to strengthen its destructive power.

Plasma can cut many objects, and its cutting power can even penetrate steel.

However, ordinary plasma cannot break through Humanoid Armor’s defense, as the armor’s hardness far exceeds that of steel, requiring some workaround at this point.

Once the plasma’s frequency is raised to the limit, it can cut very hard objects, damaging even the armor shell.

After half a day of research and design, Jiang Cheng finally solved all issues, determining what kind of melee weapon to manufacture.

With the final design plan decided, Jiang Cheng began the manufacturing process. Days later, Jiang Cheng looked at the long blade in front of him with a satisfied smile.

This long blade is the result of his hard work over the past few days, but in the end, the effort was worthwhile.

This long blade was named "High-Frequency Plasma Battle Blade" by Jiang Cheng, with its form and weight optimized through simulations.

The main body of the long blade is crafted from Gold-Titanium Gold, exuding a sleek streamline.

Jiang Cheng gently pressed the handle of the blade, which emitted a slight vibration followed by a gentle humming sound.

Next, a delicate blue radiance appeared on the blade, enveloping the entire edge.

This pale blue glow is the high-frequency plasma; don’t be fooled by its mere blue light emission.

Any object approaching those blue lights would be ruthlessly cut.

After storing the long blade, Jiang Cheng returned to the base once again, prepared to let the Fungus Faction test the power of this blade.

In the testing field, the soldier from last time held a long blade in hand.

After he firmly gripped the handle, the entire surface of the long blade turned a delicate blue.

Then with strong determination, he swung the blade hard towards a massive piece of steel in front of him, exceeding a height of 10 meters, resembling a small mountain.

After a flash of Sai Light, the huge piece of steel was split directly into two halves. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

After splitting the enormous steel, the soldier sheathed the long blade and returned to the field side.

"What a good blade!" The soldier said excitedly as he approached Jiang Cheng.

"Of course it’s a good blade, it’s called the High-Frequency Plasma Battle Blade, hope you like it." Jiang Cheng calmly said while looking at the soldier.

The items that come from Jiang Cheng’s hands are certainly excellent!

The test results of the Takasu Plasma Battle Blade highly satisfied everyone in the Fungus Faction.

This close-combat weapon is not only powerful but also not very heavy, making it convenient for Humanoid Armor to carry.

After reviewing the test results, the Fungus Faction formally determined the weapons for steel armor and the main combat methods.

The main weapon is called the ’Gauss Rifle,’ additionally equipped with a Takasu Plasma Blade.

This way, when enemies are at a distance, steel soldiers can suppress them with a Gauss Rifle.

And when enemies get closer, they can switch to the High-level Plasma Blade to engage in melee combat.

This weapon configuration for both long and close range is quite reasonable.

It fully considers various combat environments, basically meeting all combat needs.

With these two weapons, steel armor is like a tiger given wings, with little that can stop them.

After settling the weapon configuration, Flame Country immediately began the tense production work.

Now there are over a thousand steel Humanoids accumulated, yet this equipment still lacks any armament.

Without weapons, routine training can’t proceed, as many exercises require weapon configurations.

It’s not just about having enough steel Humanoids and enhanced soldiers.

The Steel Armored forces need rigorous training to form adequate combat capability.

Currently, Flame Country has only one prototype of each weapon, far from fulfilling the demand for thousands.

Jiang Cheng has no intention of manufacturing a second but merely provided the manufacturing technology to the Fungus Faction.

It’s not that Jiang Cheng couldn’t keep all this technology to himself, but making such weapons is not something private enterprises can participate in.

Flame Country has stringent gun control laws, prohibiting any company other than those in the Fungus Faction from producing weapons and ammunition.

Not to mention things like the Gauss Rifle or High-Frequency Plasma Battle Blade.

Even though his factory cannot produce them, Jiang Cheng doesn’t feel any regret.

The production of these items is very complicated, involving too many aspects.

Jiang Cheng doesn’t have the energy to engage in skirmishes with those departments, preferring to hand over technology directly to the Fungus Faction.

Anyway, even if he could produce them, he probably wouldn’t make much money from it.

If the sale price to the Fungus Faction were too high, even Jiang Cheng would feel embarrassed.

After all, this project is personally overseen by high-ranking leaders, with detail known to principal officials.

Jiang Cheng’s contributions in this matter are recognized by both the Fungus Faction and Flame Country leaders.

Having completed his responsibilities, Jiang Cheng is not afraid of not receiving adequate benefits.

In the future, Jiang Cheng has many ways to obtain compensation from the state, not to mention the benefits.

At the very least, given Jiang Cheng’s connections with the Fungus Faction and high command in Flame Country, no one can lay a finger on him within its territory.
