Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 404 Combat System Optimization
The work in recent days has been fully arranged, but it is more like paying off debts than working.

After leaving the Medical Department, Xia Shou immediately went to the Logistics Department and told the people in the Logistics Department about the emotional materials he would need to open the door. The reply was that he would need to wait in line, but it could be done within half a month.

Afterwards, Xia Shou hurried to the equipment department.

The Equipment Department arranged a project for him to make iron mirrors by himself so that he could pay off the debt owed to [Future Prefabrication].

Except for today, he will come here every day to do the mirror polishing work until the cost is completely paid off.

Xia Shou has always had doubts about the skill of [Future Prefabrication].

This skill requires one to make the props by hand, but there is no definitive definition in the skill description as to what extent is considered to be made by hand.

If I use a grinder to grind a piece of iron until it is smooth, does that count as doing it by hand?

If it counts, then if he builds an assembly line for automatically grinding iron sheets and then personally presses the button to start production, would that also count as doing it personally?

In addition, the determination of raw materials is also a topic worthy of study.

If gun parts can also be used as raw materials, then does Xia Shou, who assembled the parts with his bare hands, count as having made a gun?

If the criteria for process flow and raw materials of [Future Prefabrication] are very loose, there will be no pressure to repay the cost in the future.

Xia Shou can even become an artificial military factory, producing large quantities of military equipment and weapons at any time.

In order to verify his idea, Xia Shou and the people in the equipment department learned the most basic pistol assembly, but found that they were unable to make a pistol using [Future Prefabrication] at all.

This means that simply assembling parts into a gun cannot be considered manufacturing. Perhaps one needs to learn how to use a lathe to process pistol parts to master the manufacturing skills and use [Future Prefabrication] to manufacture a pistol.

Seeing that one approach was blocked, Xia Shou immediately changed the direction of his research. He gave up on using thermal weapons as a sample for [future prefabrication] and turned his attention to the production of extraordinary props.

After consultation, he learned that there are two types that are easier for novices to make and more practical.

One is an enchanted block of iron, nicknamed "Iron Block Thunder Gun".

After the power is activated, the iron block is crushed into iron atoms, which act as carriers of the electric arc and form the shape of a spear. Being poked by it is equivalent to being struck by lightning, and it can also be used for throwing.

However, if the user is not a believer of the Splitting Shears, he must resort to the Splitting Ritual and consume a large amount of mental energy to activate it.

And to make it, one must be a believer of the tinker.

Even if you are not a believer of the Tailor, you must use the Tailor's rituals to "sew" the conceptual power of lightning and thunder together with the carrier of iron.

The iron lightning gun made by the Tailor's followers is several times more powerful than those made by ordinary people.

In addition, Xia Shou also knew about extraordinary props such as cursed nails and solid wind blade bullets, but these props were not mass-produced.

Because ordinary people cannot use it, and even first-level employees would have to expend a lot of energy to use it.

Moreover, the number of rituals required to mass-produce them is too large, which will lead to the gathering of a large number of anomalies and cause various abnormal phenomena.

Therefore, everything is made on demand.

"Is there any more powerful tool?"

Xia Shou asked, chasing after the researcher beside him.

The researcher took a deep breath and tried to be as patient as possible.

The Mr. Trump card in front of you is a rookie who has attracted much attention from the leaders and must be treated well.

The researcher pushed up his glasses, put away his usual bad temper towards ordinary fighters, and tried to use a gentle and patient tone to carefully explain: "For more powerful ones, you need to find a more special producer, or you need special superpowers.

For example, the iron lightning gun I just told you about, hitting someone is almost the same as being struck by lightning. There are ways to optimize it, but the manufacturing process will become much more complicated.

It must be made into an iron block first, and then a blood brand can be stamped on it.

In this way, when you shoot out, all the relatives of the person you shot within three generations will be attacked at the same time, no matter where they are in the world. What do you think of the effect?"

"It's really powerful, but such indiscriminate attacks are not very practical. Are there any other types?" Xia Shou asked interestedly.

The researcher couldn't help but laugh. He was just joking with Xia Shou, but he didn't expect the other party to take it seriously.

“Do you know how to obtain the qualification for the bloodline brand?
All relatives of that person within three generations, at least thirty people, must have shared senses for more than ten years.

Only if you can do it, you will be qualified to be branded.

You may not understand what it means for thirty people to share senses.

That means if one of them is sick, everyone will feel uncomfortable. Some among the thirty people will be full and some will be hungry. The feeling of these two feelings combined is something that ordinary people like us cannot imagine.

I was just joking. The level of stuff you want is impossible to mass-produce. That kind of prop is no different from a personal item.

Although it was made, it can definitely be called a banned item!
The example of the lightning gun I just mentioned is the one numbered [33-790: Genocide Lightning Gun] kept by the bureau. If you are interested, you can go and take a look.

Sorry, I'm getting busy here. If it's not urgent, let's talk next time."

After saying that, the researcher smiled at Xia Shou and went back to minding his own business.

Xia Shou felt embarrassed to continue disturbing the other party, so he lowered his head to look at the two manufacturing manuals he got from the equipment department.

Although it is not a powerful attack item, its lethality is no different from that of thermal weapons.

What Xia Shou lacks now is this kind of simple and direct means of attack.

As long as he can raise his combat power to an acceptable level, he can use [Future Prefabrication], in conjunction with Dorian Gray's pocket watch, to multiply his ultimate combat power several times!
The pocket watch consumes self-portraits, which happen to be the simplest to make.

Apart from wasting time, there is no cost at all for Xia Shou.

It can be said that Xia Shou can paint as many paintings as he wants.

With the [Future Prefabrication] self-portrait in advance, you can even achieve total damage immunity during the battle.

Now that I think about it, this may be the reason why the director forbade him to use Dorian Gray's pocket watch in the movie.

Xia Shou pinched his nose bridge and felt a little tired after running around several departments all morning.

But sometimes, people just have to be a little harder on themselves!
Xia Shou took out "An Actor's Self-cultivation" from his backpack and encouraged himself in his heart.

All it takes is five minutes of courage.

Use these five minutes to write down everything you want to do in the future, and you will become an extremely self-disciplined striver.

Xia Shou stared at the self-discipline notebook for a full half minute, then silently put it into his bag.

"We should think long-term and finish the minister's job first."

At ten o'clock, Shangguan Yan sent a text message, asking him to take Li Ming to 678 to bring back thirty kilograms of disaster crystals and to do daily dormitory cleaning for 678.
