I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

Four days later,

Gene Warrior Training Hall

Far away, at the door of Xu Rong's office.

Han Liu chuckled as he pushed open the door, gave Lin Xuankong a military salute,
"Master Lin, all the automatic and heavy machine guns in the shelter have been repaired, and their performance and reaction speed are completely fine!"

He placed a remote control covered in buttons on the desk in front of Lin Xuankong and said:

"This is the controller for all automatic weapons."
It can be voice-controlled or manually controlled; it's quite intelligent!

Lin Xuankong pushed the remote control back to Han Liu.

I don't need this remote control.

All fire control in the shelter
"You and Han Bao can take turns managing it!"

For Lin Xuankong
Although the numerous automatic and heavy machine guns in Vault 36 have fierce firepower, they can even withstand the attack of a single Tier 7 Tyrannical Source Beast to a certain extent!
However, with his Water Drawing Technique and Ice Blade Technique, Lin Xuankong's personal firepower, attack capabilities, and suppression capabilities are not inferior to, and may even be slightly stronger than, the firepower of all the automatic weapons in the entire No. 36 Shelter!
After all, if he went all out, Lin Xuankong could fight off the attacks of a seventh-tier tyrannical source beast from a distance for a period of time on his own. Lin Xuankong was confident enough in this regard!

The biggest difference between Lin Xuankong and a seventh-order tyrannical source beast is actually in terms of speed, burst damage, and defense. If we talk about the density, range, and suppressiveness of their attacks, then it's not necessarily a matter of who is stronger!

Once Lin Xuankong can lock onto a seventh-tier tyrannical source beast, he should be able to hold it off for a while using the same move he used to kill Xu Rong!
of course,

If it's one-on-one,
If the fight continues,
The powerful combat strength, defense, speed, and terrifying recovery ability of a seventh-tier tyrannical source beast are definitely beyond what Lin Xuankong, an eighth-tier life form, can handle!
If the battle continues and the seventh-tier tyrannical source beast is cunning enough, even if Lin Xuankong has a large number of eighth-tier source stone crystals, he will inevitably fail in the end!

Just like when Lin Xuankong was at the peak of the ninth rank and fought against that predatory python, if that predatory python hadn't been so careless, it definitely wouldn't have fallen into Lin Xuankong and Han Liu's trap!
Han Liu saw Lin Xuankong push the remote control back.
He didn't refuse, simply stuffed it into his pocket, then scratched his messy hair and said with a grin:

"Teacher Lin, you won't believe it until you see it, it's quite a shock!"

If I hadn't been on this mission to repair automatic weapons with Lu Ye, I wouldn't have known that there were so many experts in the automation and electronics industries in our Shelter No. 36. Especially Lu Ye, who actually served as a senior researcher at the Tang Dynasty's Stone City Weapons Research Institute.

"If it weren't for these weapons experts, it would have taken who knows how long to repair those automatic weapons whose control parts were eaten away by my Void Eaters. I doubt I could restore them myself in a hundred years, let alone get them all sorted out in a few days!"

Lin Xuankong nodded slightly and said:

"I never expected that the refugees in Shelter No. 36 would be such hidden talents!"
This shelter number 36 housed biologists like Mr. Li Pingfei, as well as many weapons experts and metallurgical experts.

However, upon closer reflection, it becomes clear that the Source Beast Disaster, a massive catastrophe that destroyed a stone city with tens of millions of inhabitants, is extremely terrifying for ordinary people. Those who survive such a terrible disaster and are able to enter the shelter must be, apart from a few extremely lucky individuals, the rest must be elite talents from the Tang Kingdom!
When the rescue teams that set up the shelters entered Shicheng, their first priority was to rescue people with important professions and those who possessed important skills!

However, as the genetic warriors in the shelter grew stronger, Xu Chong, Xu Rong, and other genetic warriors began to take these old-era technical talents less seriously!

In my opinion, even if the future belongs to gene warriors, and even if everyone can become a gene warrior, the Tang Dynasty will still need a large number of weapons experts, biologists, and scientific research talents in various fields! Those like Xu Chong and Xu Rong, who believe they can control and sweep away everything with individual military force, are ultimately too naive!

Upon hearing this, Han Liu nodded thoughtfully, though he was actually quite bewildered.

Han Liu readily agreed with whatever his teacher Lin Xuankong said that he could understand, and he also directly acknowledged the things Lin Xuankong said that he didn't understand!

In fact, Lin Xuankong's understanding of those statements was very clear and certain!
Because talent is extremely important not only in a world where scientific knowledge can play a significant role, but in any world, talent is crucial in all aspects!
For example, in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm
For example, in the Supreme Primordial Realm
The individual strength of Earth Immortals and Celestial Immortals is enough to overturn the heavens and earth with a wave of their hands.

However, in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm and the Supreme Yuan Realm, those who excel in auxiliary cultivation methods such as alchemy, array formation, and weapon crafting can still achieve higher combat abilities and status than ordinary Earth Immortals and Heavenly Immortals through weapon crafting, array formation, and the consumption of special pills!

The same applies to this primordial universe; even a top-tier eighth-order dragon-elephant gene warrior like Xu Rong could easily crush an ordinary person.

However, when facing an opponent who is also at the top level of the eighth tier, the first method he wants to use is still the automatic machine guns and heavy machine guns of Vault 36!

Of course, Xu Rong probably felt that once he reached the seventh level of life, he wouldn't need to care too much about these automatic machine guns and heavy machine guns!

But what if humans were able to kill a large number of Tier 7 Tyrannical Source Beasts in the future, and then the weapons experts among these humans were able to refine a large number of Tier 7 SW Alloys?
By then, the heavy machine guns will be able to carry a large number of Tier 7 SW alloy high-explosive bullets, thus threatening the lives of Tier 7 Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors!
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

Just as Lin Xuankong finished speaking, there was a knock on the office door. Han Liu opened the door and chuckled, "Lu Ye, what brings you here? I just reported the good news to Master Lin about repairing those automatic weapons, and he's praising you guys right here!"

The middle-aged man, Lu Ye, saluted Han Liu and Lin Xuankong, then said with some excitement, "I have some good news to report to Director Lin!"

Since Lin Xuankong swept through the Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors of Shelter No. 36 a few days ago and distributed a large amount of supplies to the refugees, many refugees have started to call Lin Xuankong "Director Lin." The term "director" naturally refers to the shelter! These refugees used this title instead of Xu Rong's original title of Captain, which clearly shows that they have more respect and affection for Lin Xuankong.

Lin Xuankong gestured for Lu Ye to sit down at the desk. "What good news?"

Han Liu also leaned closer, his hair in a mess, looking curious.

Lu Ye, a middle-aged man who used to be a senior researcher at a weapons research institute,
He took a shiny bullet from his purse, held it with some effort in both hands, and placed it on Lin Xuankong's desk, then said:

"Most of the automatic and heavy machine guns in our shelter are made of Tier 9 SW alloy."

Of the heavy machine guns, only two are equipped with fewer than four hundred Tier 8 SW alloy bullets!

Although the SW alloy bullets of the ninth tier can generate huge kinetic energy under the impetus of high explosive gunpowder, which can penetrate the defense of the ninth tier source beast and have a certain impact on the eighth tier predator source beast, they are not very effective against the top-tier eighth tier predator source beast. They can only suppress the opponent's approach or hit the opponent's vital position by chance!

The number of Tier 8 SW alloy bullets, which can break through the defense of Tier 8 Predator Source Beasts and suppress Tier 7 Tyrannical Source Beasts, is far too small, with less than four hundred of them!

These past few days, my companions and I have been processing the scales and bones of the one ton of Tier 8 Predator Pythons at the forestry station. Today, we finally succeeded in extracting the SW alloy from the scales and bones, and manufactured about five hundred bullets. This is one of the Tier 8 SW alloy bullets!

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong's eyes lit up. He picked up the eighth-order SW alloy bullet, examined it carefully for a few moments, and then squeezed it a few times. He nodded and said, "In terms of strength, density, and toughness, it has already reached the standard of eighth-order SW alloy. Lu Ye, your professional skills are beyond my expectations. You were able to refine the SW alloy so quickly!"

Han Liu couldn't help but come closer, taking the bullet from Lin Xuankong's hand and examining it carefully. He clicked his tongue in amazement, "Not bad, not bad. Before, our SW alloy weapons in Shelter 36, whether they were Tier 8 or Tier 9, all had to be transported from Shelter 1. And Shelter 1 also needed the Tang Kingdom Gene Organization to allocate them from other cities! Now it's different. Our shelter now has its own SW alloy material production base!"
"Lu Ye, I still have quite a few scales and materials from the Tier 8 Predator Python. I'll give them all to you later. Let's see how much Tier 8 SW alloy material you can refine for the shelter!"

Seeing Lin Xuankong and Han Liu so delighted, Lu Ye gave a military salute and said earnestly:

"Actually, when Xu Rong was managing Vault 36, I repeatedly suggested to him that we could try refining some SW alloy! But Xu Rong didn't trust me and the other researchers, and he was unwilling to hand over the source beast materials he hunted to us for experiments! Later, after Xu Chong became a gene warrior, the atmosphere among the gene warriors in Vault 36 became utterly disgusting, and my fellow researchers and I never mentioned it again! And later still, Xu Chong even..."

At this point, Lu Ye looked at Lin Xuankong with reddened eyes, "If it weren't for Director Lin eliminating Xu Rong, Xu Chong and other Dragon Elephant Gene Warriors, we disaster victims would have been tortured to death by these inhuman bastards sooner or later, and I would have had no chance to avenge my wife!"

Upon hearing this, Han Liu said, "Brother Lu Ye, with Master Lin here, even if many disaster victims become gene warriors in the future, the old atmosphere and things will never happen again! Besides, Brother Lu Ye, don't worry, Master Lin will definitely value and make good use of someone as talented as you, and your treatment will be no worse than that of any gene warrior!"

Lu Ye actually managed to refine the eighth-order SW alloy so quickly, which made Han Liu, who was always a bit arrogant, quite impressed. At this moment, he became much more polite when speaking, and started calling Lu Ye "Brother Lu Ye" all the time!

When Lu Ye heard Han Liu say this, he shook his head and said, "Mr. Han, you flatter me too much. In the big cities of Tang, there are quite a few researchers like me. In those weapons factories, at least every weapons factory has at least a few researchers or managers like me!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong stood up, walked to Lu Ye's side, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled:

"How many researchers like you there are in Tang Guo is none of my business."

The defense and safety of my shelter now have a lot to do with you!
Lu Ye, from today onwards, you will be a professional in this shelter, just like Mr. Li Pingfei, and will receive the same treatment and benefits as the gene warriors! In addition, I will also assign other mechanical and metallurgical talents in this shelter to your command!

Next, a dedicated weapons laboratory will be established, and you will be its head manager, responsible for the refining of all SW alloys and the development of new weapons!

Lu Ye's face lit up with excitement. "Director Lin, I am truly grateful for your high regard for me."

Lin Xuankong waved his hand, "No need for thanks. Just find a way to refine more SW alloy, get more Tier 8 SW alloy bullets, and more high-explosive ammunition. As for the resources you need, just go to Han Liu. He should have all the resources you need. If he doesn't have them, let him figure it out!"

Hearing this from the side, Han Liu tossed his messy hair and said, "No problem, no problem. As long as it's the material Brother Lu Ye needs, if I have it here, I'll give it to you directly. If I don't have it here, I'll just take the Princess to the ruins of Stone City to find it!"

For Han Liu, the Stone City ruins are now almost risk-free. After all, he has the Void Devouring Worm with him. Wherever he wants to go, he can have the Void Devouring Worm devour a passage deep underground and arrive at that location silently!

Lu Ye nodded vigorously, a glimmer of hope in his eyes. For the first time in two years since the Source Beast Disaster, he felt that same urge to throw himself into weapons research without hesitation. He understood that this enthusiasm stemmed from hope in life, from his own optimism for this shelter and for its leader, Lin Xuankong! (End of Chapter)
