Disaster Artist

Chapter 52 Customization
The ability of rust to corrode fire is quite suitable to Bai Zhe's liking.

People with NEIR are often called hominids, or apes.The rusty fire can turn everyone into primitive people, and then Bai Zhe can use his rich primitive experience to beat the enemy.

It sounds a bit dark and twisted, but in fact it is not upright.

Of course, the above are just beautiful theories.How to apply his abilities in actual combat gave him a headache.

The corrosive power of Rusty Flame is extremely strong, but it must be released at extremely close range.In this age, who is still fighting with you in close combat?

Rusty Slag can barely be considered a long-range attack, but its range is extremely limited.With Bai Zhe's arm strength alone, it would be great to be able to throw him five meters away.

He tried to squeeze the rust slag vigorously, but it was only slightly formed, and it was a little easier to throw it away.

The key problem is that using abilities in this way is a waste of status:
Someone Bai yelled: "Hey boy, I'm going to put some ashes in your eyes!"

Then he shook his hand vigorously, and his face was covered with rust. His opponent screamed and his body was covered with sparks.This is the limestone of the cyber age.

Flame's attack range was probably hopeless. He had to find a way to increase Rusty Slag's attack range and accuracy.

Start by eliminating all electronic devices.If a drone is used to drop rust slag, the drone transporting the rust slag will be scrapped first.

Is it possible to put rust residue into bullets and shoot them out with an old-fashioned gun with a purely mechanical structure?No, the effect of rust slag can only last for one or two minutes, and it will be useless by the time it is made into bullets.

Bai Zhe began to consider weapons with simpler structures, such as bows and arrows and slingshots.The painting style gradually became primitive.

But it seems to work.Create rust, load it into arrows or projectiles, and shoot quickly.Bai Zhe had heard that some high-pound compound bows could shoot up to 300 meters.

He first recorded this plan as a backup.Bai Zhe has never learned bow and arrow, and fighting with cybernetics while carrying a bow is somewhat of a performance art.

Loading projectiles
He thought of a special kind of bullet, a shotgun shell, or a shotgun shell.The rust residue after he squeezed it seemed to be similar to the small metal pellets in the shotgun bullets.

Although the shotgun has a shorter range and an inaccurate hit range, it is definitely better than throwing it with bare hands or shooting with a bow.

In a gun shop in the border area, Bai Zhe saw the master in the shop making homemade shotgun shells.

The 3D printed red cartridge case has a primer and propellant underneath, and a bullet holder in the middle.After fixing it with glue, the master will fill it with projectiles according to the purpose.

There are single-headed projectiles, several-headed projectiles, and more than a dozen projectiles.The materials include lead bullets, tungsten bullets, plastic bullets, and some exclusive and secret ones with strange shapes.

After loading the projectiles, the master sealed it with glue and plastic discs, and a shotgun shell was rubbed out by hand.

An experienced hand can fill it quickly, but the final sealing process will take some time.After solving this problem, he can rub rusty shotguns with his hands.

Bai Zhe has a good impression of shotguns.In the past, when fighting in the Colosseum, the organizer would usually give the human side a weapon, otherwise there would be no fighting.

The weapons assigned generally pursue expressive appearance, such as maces, chainsaws, katana, two-handed swords and so on.Among the mess of weapons, the shotgun loaded with two bullets is definitely the best.

After having an idea, he immediately contacted Rogge and asked him if he knew any reliable gun dealers, preferably those selling old-fashioned guns.

The maintenance engineer said that there are too many of these people near Kite Street. You should be more specific.

[I want to buy an old-fashioned shotgun without any circuit structure.The structure is simple and durable, and the range is as long as possible]

[Oh, the gun is just included.Mainly buying semi-finished shotguns and tools that can quickly seal shotguns]

【? 】

Rogge felt that this person was becoming more and more abnormal.That kind of old-fashioned gun can only be used to scare people. It may not be able to penetrate the shell of a Class C prosthetic body within a distance of 5 meters.

There is no need to rub bullets by hand, it can only satisfy the joy of doing crafts.

[I can make semi-finished shotguns in my shop.Why are you buying a shotgun? 】【Forget it, I'll give you Old Lyon's contact information, you can ask him.He is obsessed with old-fashioned guns all day long, and even sells revolvers]

After Bai Zhe thanked Rogge, he contacted Lao Lyon.

Hearing that he was here to buy an old-fashioned shotgun, the old man was very nice.There are not many young people today who have this insight.

Those new guns have all the bells and whistles, such as smart locking, automatic correction, heat dissipation and anti-shake, and smart voice.If you accidentally knock it twice, it will easily malfunction and be hacked.

Bai Zhe then asked if there was any tool that could quickly seal shotguns, and Old Lyon immediately doubled his favorability.

It's good to make your own bullets, the weight and feel are just different.Using homemade bullets for a long time makes it easier to bond with the gun in your hand and let the gun give birth to a soul.

There were a lot of questions in his mind as he listened, feeling that the old man's problem might be more serious than his own.

[If you want to load shotgun quickly, I usually use this]

Leon sent a picture.The photo shows a device about the size of a toaster, with six grooves at the bottom. Judging from the size, it should be used to hold shotshell shells.

[Like this, after loading the projectiles, put them in and press hard on them.There is a sealed plastic lid inside, which can be quickly sprayed with glue and air-dried after pressing it on]

After 2 minutes, Old Lyon sent a demonstration video.The working principle is quite simple, a bit like a plastic sealing machine.

It's a nice thing, but it's a plug-in one and he can't use it.But the ideas can be learned from.

[Is there a smaller version of this sealing machine?Can be carried anywhere, no need to plug in]

[This kind of small thing is not for sale. I asked a mechanic to make it.If you want, you can ask Roger for help]

Looks like I have to harass the maintenance guy again.

Leon: [But why do you carry this with you?Do you want to load ammunition on site, ready for use? 】

Bai Zhe: [Almost]

Leon: [Young people have ideas!Only the bullets fired in this way have souls!I also have a revolver in my hand, that one has more feel.If you don’t like revolvers, consider using a flintlock gun]

flintlock?
Bai Zhe's mouth twitched, and Ye Ming replied.

[Please help me choose a shotgun.Simple and durable, easy to load】

[This one, I call it the air hammer.It can hold 6 rounds at a time. You can install it now and use it. This capacity is just right.

The range is 50 meters, but you can’t say that with homemade bullets.The tube next to it is used to automatically eject the shell and load the gun, and can fire continuously]

【How many? 】

[2000, for the sake of your knowledge, 1600]

This price is quite affordable.It was his fault that he was poor, not the gun.

[I’m going to discuss with Rogge the machine for sealing bullets. If there’s no problem, I’ll buy it]

Bai Zhe harassed Rogge again and asked him if he could imitate the style used by Lyon and make a small, purely manual packaging machine.

The maintenance man said it was not difficult and didn't bother to ask him why.The charge is 400, and the goods will be picked up within three days.

Funding - 2000.
