Rifle charge in Ark, but without a mount

"There is no problem in purchasing materials. I can find channels for all the materials on the market now. It's just that you need to bear the specific funds."

"It's no problem. We made some money doing business with Inam's Chamber of Commerce. We'll just use it on Dachou anyway, so it won't cost us much."

"Compared to this, Miss Zumama, I have another proposal that will benefit both of us."

Claude looked at the other party with a determined smile on his face.

Casimir's New Chapter: Chapter 204 is about the possibility of mechas being deployed in the army.

"proposal?!"

A curious look appeared on the face of the Phidia girl, waiting for Claude's next words.

"Ms. Zumama, your work is the big ugly one. I think it has great potential. You may have made it for fighting or logging, but its structure has great value. It is not only simple to make, but also strong and durable. If it can be mass-produced, it can play a significant role in all walks of life."

"Does that mean we need to make more clowns? ... That's not a problem."

Zumama still looked a little confused. She still couldn't figure out what to do with her more ugliness.

"To put it simply, if there are hundreds of these big ugly machines, the fight will be very intense, right? This is what I want."

"If you are willing to cooperate, I can provide you with free materials and equipment to transform this mecha into a universal tactical equipment. I will provide all the funds, and I can also give you a lot of compensation. This special machine, the Dachou, can also become popular in this world."

"But in this case, you may need to leave your hometown temporarily and go to my mobile city, so that you can mass-produce and improve this mecha... What do you think?"

Claude looked at the other party expectantly. Of course, there were more advanced mechas in this world, such as Victoria's Steam Knight. This heavy mecha operated by a single person had terrifying combat power. It was certainly not comparable to Dachou, but Dachou also had its own advantages, which was its sufficiently low cost and simple structure.

There are only a few Victorian steam knights left now. It is not certain whether there are any in any country. Not to mention its high cost, even in Victoria's heyday, there were not many in the whole country. And once the complex parts are damaged, they need highly skilled craftsmen to repair, which further increases its maintenance cost.

But the Big Chou is tough enough, and has good mobility and attack power. In addition, its simple structure can be manufactured in any city with heavy industry, which makes its cost-effectiveness reach a considerable level. In Claude's plan, it can even be used as a fire support unit for the squad.

Yanshi ⑦ Four Bars ② Qi 800

Of course, if it succeeds, it will still need some improvements, after all, the current shape is still a bit too simple.

"Mr. Claude, do you mean that I can go to the mobile city? No one will stop me?! And I can do countless ugly things?"

After some thought, Zumama's eyes suddenly lit up. It seemed that Claude's proposal was exactly what she wanted.

Claude, who already understood the girl's personality, smiled and said:

"Of course, no problem. If you are willing, I can hire you as our chief engineer for the project. At that time, not only can you use all kinds of equipment and factories, but also all kinds of materials. Not only Dachou, but you can also make something bigger than Dachou. You can also visit and study all kinds of machinery at will."

Zumama's face flushed red, and she was about to open her mouth to agree, but the high priest suddenly pecked the back of her hand from behind, calming her down temporarily.

"Hey, young man, even though you said such wonderful things that even I am tempted, it is only your one-sided statement after all. If you lie to us again, then we country bumpkins won't be able to survive outside... You understand, right?"

This high priest was obviously an elder to the girl, and Claude was well prepared.

"Of course, I understand your concerns. I am not prepared to convince you with just my words. Although I cannot prove it to you on the spot, the information in this terminal should be able to give me some persuasiveness."

As he spoke, Claude handed over his terminal. His terminal had a very powerful encryption program, which was specially added by the technicians of the Integration Movement. If any unauthorized person tried to open the terminal, it would explode on the spot, so in order to prevent others from being injured, he had to give the other party authorization first.

After a series of tedious operations, Zumama finally gained access to the terminal, and then she saw the heavy industrial city of Chernobyl and the prosperous Casimir. Claude, who had been prepared for this day, stored a lot of technical data and video images in his terminal, just in case he met some technical talents outside, and used them to prove that what he said was true.

The arsenal in Chernobog is researching new equipment. Claude already knew this before coming here. Now that he has met two such talents, he certainly has no intention of letting them go. He fully uses his eloquence to introduce all aspects of Chernobog's situation.

Because people in the Akahura region regard oripathy as a disease on the same level as fever and colds, the condition of the infected people in Chernobyl is not very attractive. Claude emphasized the local developed heavy industry and large machinery, because he had long seen what the girl in front of him really liked.

Seeing that the other party was still hesitant, he decided to use his trump card.

"In fact, there are many talking machines in this city. They have intelligence similar to that of humans. If you want to study them, I can also provide convenience for you."

In fact, there is no such thing in the city now, but it can be. This is not too difficult for Chernobog's technology. After all, this world already has quite advanced AI technology, and the technology tree is ridiculously biased.

“Can it really talk? Can it talk like a human? How did you do that? Did you put a person inside? Can you show it to me now?!…”

As expected by Claude, after he said this, Zumama quickly agreed to join his engineering team, and immediately packed his luggage, wanting to set off immediately to see the human-like machine that Claude mentioned. He even didn't want to care about the election for the chief here anymore.

Claude, who was still on vacation, stopped the other party. There was only this short 7-day vacation once in a few years, and there was certainly no need for him to disturb his companions for this matter.

After they have finished their own vacation, they can take Zumama with them and hitchhike to Rhodes Island, which can save a lot of effort.

Casimir's New Chapter: Chapter 205: A Mess

Although he successfully found a talent for Chernobog's arsenal, Claude did not disrupt his original plan and returned to his cabin at night. Because he had not cleaned his house carefully due to dealing with Hart's mess, he had to get busy again, throwing out all the messy little animals in the house and cleaning the floor carefully.

Just as he built a frame with a few wooden boards, spread out his bedding on it and prepared to go to sleep, he suddenly stopped, turned around and opened the bolt.

Ten seconds later, with two crisp knocks on the door, the door slowly opened, revealing Gavial who was a little unprepared outside. It seemed that she didn't expect that the door would open just after she knocked twice. The green-haired Adaklis girl was stunned for a moment, then came in.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Mr. Claude. Are you going to bed so early? Everyone is having fun."

She found a place to sit cross-legged in a very familiar manner, and her strong and powerful tail flapped unconsciously on the floor, showing that she was not so calm in her heart.

Claude also sat down on his bed and reached out to unfasten his belt. The sound of the buckle being unlocked was very harsh in the silent night because neither of them spoke. And the shoulder armor on his body. In order to get used to the days without armor, Claude deliberately put on the armor on his left arm. It had no other use except to look handsome.

"You should have followed us right after we left. Wouldn't Dr. Kal'tsit blame you? After all, I think she's pretty strict."

After taking off his arm armor, Claude finally spoke. Contrary to Gavial's expectations, he did not take off his shirt. While she was relieved, she actually felt a little regretful.

…………

Claude looked at Gavial and suddenly shook his head, feeling a little puzzled.

"It's okay, it's okay. Didn't I leave a note for Dr. Kal'tsit when I left? She should have seen it a long time ago... Anyway, I'm only back for two days, and I'll go back with you guys then!!"

"Are you here to say hello? Actually, I knew you followed me a long time ago, after all, you didn't try to hide it."

"Ahahaha... That's exactly what I meant. I also know that I can't hide it from you, Mr. Claude. But I suddenly came here because I found something strange and wanted to ask you to take a look... No one in the tribe knows what that thing is..."

"weird stuff?"

Claude frowned, his intuition told him that this was another troublesome matter, but looking at the other party's expectant eyes, he still sighed and put on the shoulder armor and belt that he had just taken off. Fortunately, he hadn't taken off his boots yet, so he could stand up and walk now.

"Come on, take me to see that thing."

…………

The drop of this waterfall is hundreds of meters, and the amount of water is astonishingly large. It falls from a great height and hits the pool heavily, making a huge noise and splashing water all over the sky. There is lush vegetation growing around the waterfall. For some reason, it is too lush, making it difficult for people to walk here.

Still using his sharp sword as a tool to clear the way, Javier followed behind him. The two men moved forward all the way and came to a huge puddle next to the waterfall. There was a narrow wooden bridge on it, built with unpeeled wood and vines. The splashing water from the waterfall made the bridge damp all the year round, and a lot of mushrooms grew on it visible to the naked eye.

As soon as he entered the rainforest, Claude discovered that there were all kinds of mushrooms growing here, and there were even giant mushrooms that were taller than humans. These giant mushrooms were no longer fragile, but were full of tough lignin, enough to support the weight of a person. Even if you wanted to cut it down, it would take some effort.

The two crossed the small bridge and began to climb up the cliff along the vines beside it. It was not easy to climb here because the waterfall had been eroding it for years and it was slippery and there was no place to stand. They could only rely on the strong strength of their arms to grab the vines and climb up.

But fortunately, this was just a small matter for both of them. Gavial still had a tail to help him, so it didn't take long for the two of them to successfully reach the top, and Claude also saw the strange thing that Gavial mentioned.

…………

"It's really strange..."

This was a huge pink fleshy object without a fixed shape. There was a lot of transparent mucus on it, and it was wriggling slightly like a living thing. To be honest, it looked pretty bad, and made Claude think of something in some special cultural works.

As soon as Gavial came back, she greeted everyone and started strolling around, so she discovered such a strange thing at the root of the big tree. Out of curiosity, she punched the thing hard several times, but it didn't have any effect. This thing was extremely elastic and tough, and it easily dissipated the force of her fist.

And after being beaten by her, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but the thing actually had a tendency to grow bigger. In order to prevent it from getting bigger, she didn't continue to do it, but hurriedly went to find someone to help, and then somehow, she found Claude.

But Claude couldn't recognize where this thing came from at the moment. It looked like a living creature, but apart from pink flesh, it had no other organs and no eyes to observe the outside world. It was just a large mass of meat gathered together.

Claude took a deep breath, and a strong fishy smell came from his nose. This smell was not only the stench of flesh and blood, but also a pungent smell unique to chemical solutions, just like a fresh corpse soaked in formalin.

The taste was terrible, but it brought Claude a lot of information. At least now he understood that this thing was not born naturally, otherwise there would not be that pungent smell of medicine. But this was also not good news. Terra's technology tree was very biased. This was very likely something that was made in a laboratory. Those crazy scientists might not be able to create anything.

Claude drew out his sword and carefully stabbed it into the huge piece of meat in front of him, wanting to see how it would react.

The sword in his hand began to vibrate wildly, and a large amount of blood continued to spread from the flesh to the blade. Mercy was drinking the blood in big gulps, constantly conveying joy to Claude, and seemed extremely satisfied with the flesh and blood.

The lump of meat began to struggle instinctively, and a pool of pink muscle condensed into a huge ball that smashed down towards Claude, but before it hit him, Gavial jumped up and kicked hard in the air. The moment it collided with the lump of meat, a huge sonic boom was heard, and the huge lump of meat also fell back heavily at an even faster speed, and its huge weight broke a thick tree behind it in half.

Gavial landed on the ground, his tail keeping him balanced nimbly, and Claude didn't move at all. He already knew how much strength the girl next to him had. If she wanted to, she could easily lift this piece of meat and throw it over the waterfall.

The sword in his hand melted like mercury, and exploded into countless metal spikes like a hedgehog, piercing deeply into the flesh, absorbing blood at a faster rate, and the color of the blade quickly changed from silver-white with a hint of blood to blood red.

This was of course only temporary. Claude knew very well that within two days, once it had digested all the blood, the sword would turn silver-white again, and the large piece of meat in front of him would begin to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, changing from a healthy pink color to a dull grayish white.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before this strange creature would die under his sword. Unexpectedly, this time it was solved unexpectedly easily, which made him feel better.

A minute later, the huge piece of meat completely turned into a pool of dead meat, with no signs of life at all. Claude also pulled out the sword in his hand. The extremely sharp blade was now bright red like blood, looking weird and dangerous. Even the thorns wrapped around the sword guard were the same color.

This was the first time it felt satisfied since it got the sword of Mercy. It stopped muttering in Claude's ear and became completely quiet.

"Okay, that's it. The wild animals in the rain forest will take care of the remaining flesh and blood. What happens next has nothing to do with us."

The sharp sword rubbed against the scabbard, making a slight metallic friction sound, and then with a click, the sword guard and the scabbard fit together tightly. Claude also turned around and prepared to climb down from the vine. It was already late at night, and the moon was in the center of the sky, casting silver light to illuminate the rain forest. Except for insects, most animals in the rain forest had fallen asleep.

“…………Maybe there are still some issues that have not been resolved…”

Gavial's voice stopped Claude who was about to leave. Looking at the direction the other party pointed, a pink shadow was in the distance, crawling towards the depths of the jungle at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye, as if it was just an illusion they had just created.

"How many of these things are there? ... Where did they come from? ..."

Claude pulled out his sword speechlessly and chased after him. Since he had seen it, he had no choice but to ignore it, otherwise he would not be able to sleep tonight.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The pink piece of flesh was constantly squirming. It slowly wrapped around a big tree, and with a little force, it broke the thick tree. The tree was sinking into the huge piece of flesh at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was swallowed by a swamp. It disappeared in the blink of an eye, and this huge piece of flesh also grew a little bigger visibly to the naked eye.

As the piece of meat rolled, even the weeds on the ground it passed by were swallowed into its body, leaving only a bare flat ground as if it had been burned by flames. A sleeping feathered beast woke up from the grass next to it because of the shaking of the trees. Before it could make a panicked cry, a fleshy pink tentacle wrapped around its body. The transparent mucus on it was like glue and had great stickiness. In the blink of an eye, it was pulled into the huge pink mountain of meat.

If you raise your perspective and look at this dense rainforest from the sky, you can see a small pink dot that is constantly growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Wherever it passes, there is only bare land, just like a blackboard eraser erasing chalk writing, constantly erasing the green that represents life.

…………

A black boot stepped on the thick humus. This was the depth of the rain forest, where plants were renewed very quickly. Plants kept dying and fell at the feet of the victor. After rotting, they turned into this thick layer of humus. The rich nutrients allowed more plants to thrive.

An orange-yellow tail was swaying slightly, with many bony spikes on it. It looked extremely dangerous. Just a slight swing could cause terrible trauma to the body.

The Vaifan woman with long white hair was concentrating on the instrument in her hand. The graph on it was constantly fluctuating, and dozens of data were displayed next to it. It looked extremely complicated. No one with a doctorate on their academic certificate was qualified to use this thing.

After looking for a while, Saria, who didn't know why she came to this rainforest, reluctantly put the instrument into a black bag, and then carefully put the bag into the sidecar motorcycle next to her. Yes, this was the motorcycle that Claude gave her. Because it couldn't hold too many things, it underwent some modifications.

Kong Shou broke off some small trees nearby and used these lush plants to cover her motorcycle. Saria began to look carefully for traces in the jungle, but the rainforest in the Akahura area was so lush and vast that it was naturally difficult to gain anything by searching aimlessly. Saria's expression became more and more anxious.

The fingers wearing tactical gloves grasped the tree trunk next to her. With Sariaya's subconscious force, she easily broke off a large piece of the hard wood just like breaking off a piece of tofu. As if to relieve her anxiety, Sariaya continued to break the tree trunk while thinking. As the wood chips continued to fall to the ground, the trunk became thinner and thinner. Finally, with a click, the dozens of meters high tree fell heavily on the connected tree crowns because the remaining part could not support its huge weight, crushing many small trees.

The loud noise of falling trees attracted Saria's attention. She suddenly thought that she might as well ask the local indigenous people. After all, there were still many people living in this area. If they saw any signs, they could provide her with some clues.

Casimir's New Chapter: Chapter 206: Chaos

The rainforest is not suitable for traveling because the vegetation here is too lush, but if you are determined to sacrifice your clothes, it is no problem to rush through with your powerful strength.

Claude didn't care about his pants because he knew that the barbed vines had already torn them to pieces. But he had no way to stop now, the huge pink piece of meat was making more and more noise, and its size had increased to be taller than the tree canopy.

The two men rushed through the rainforest, breaking trees like biscuits, and chased the huge piece of meat in the shortest straight line, but the clothes on their bodies were not that tough, and there were many things in the rainforest that could damage them. Gavial was okay, as she was wearing very little and was not easily scratched.

But Claude's newly bought clothes couldn't hold up, and soon they were about to turn into a pile of cloth strips. Although it was a pity that the gift given to him by others was about to be ruined, the sound of the pink piece of meat, which had become as huge as a mountain, rolling on the ground was deafening, and fires began to light up in the surrounding villages.

Because they came out in a hurry this time, Claude did not bring his javelin. Now they had no suitable long-range means to stop this thing, so they could only rush into the village at a faster speed and let the villagers leave here in advance to avoid being swallowed by the huge pink thing.

When there were no more villages on their route, Claude turned around to face the huge piece of meat and slowly drew out his sword.

…………

He raised the sword high up, then swung it down with all his strength, inputting surging ether into the sword. The sky was illuminated by the sword light, and the earth seemed to be divided into two halves. The huge pink piece of meat was neatly divided in the middle, and the smelly blood-red liquid flooded the jungle like a flood. The sound of the two huge pieces of meat falling to the ground aroused countless flying birds, which crushed the two vast jungles.

The groove cut on the ground was filled with blood in an instant. Claude quickly approached the fallen piece of meat. His intuition told him that this thing had not lost its vitality, and it had no internal organs at all. Even if it was cut in half, it would not necessarily hurt the vital parts.

Sure enough, when he was one step away from the two pieces of flesh, countless tentacles suddenly stretched out from the pink flesh and blood, extending wildly in all directions, rolling up everything it could reach, whether it was soil, rocks, or crushed trees, pulling them all into its body, and then the two pieces of flesh fled in two directions at an astonishing speed.

…………

Now one trouble turned into two. The two men looked at each other and quickly separated to chase after it. The entire Akahura area was in chaos because of this thing. Every village had lit torches, especially the Anaconda tribe, which had now gathered into a fire dragon and was moving towards this direction.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, no one can fall asleep.

………………

Saria took a look at the huge piece of meat and silently put her terminal into her pocket. It seemed that there was no need to ask for directions. The thing she was looking for seemed to have gotten out of control, and she had to stop this experiment first.

He silently moved his hands and feet, and wrapped the bandages on his wrists around his fists. The next moment, the trees in the jungle were easily broken, and a tall figure surrounded by white enamel rushed towards the squirming meat mountain in the distance.

…………

For the time being, Claude didn't dare to use Mercy to cut it off. This thing didn't look like it could be solved by simply chopping it into pieces. It might even become more. Fortunately, its size had become much smaller now, so he could find a way to stop it. Claude made up his mind and began to speed up. Relying on his strong jumping ability, he jumped onto the treetops from time to time. In this way, he quickly surpassed his target and blocked the direction of the piece of meat.

The sword in his hand melted like mercury again, and then continued to become thinner and longer, and finally turned into a three-meter-long steel spike. It looked like a strange spear, shining a sharp and somewhat dazzling light under the moonlight. It pointed this sharp long spike at the mountain of flesh that was crushing towards him, and the next moment... that huge figure completely covered him.

This huge mountain of flesh had a terrifying sense of power, and it seemed that nothing could stop its advance. Claude, who was trying to stop a chariot with his bare hands, was pressed into endless flesh and blood at this moment, as if he would become a part of the mountain of flesh in the next second. The Vaifan woman who saw this scene also happened to recognize Claude.

Seeing him covered by the pile of flesh, the anxious Saria quickened her pace and rushed to the front of the indescribable thing in the blink of an eye. The enamel that multiplied rapidly like frost covered her fist. The moment she stopped, she twisted her waist and punched, hitting the middle of the flesh mountain hard.

The blow seemed to be accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder. Compared with this huge mountain of flesh, such a delicate fist was like a blockbuster bomb, which created a huge cavity in the thick flesh and blood. Countless flesh and blood were beaten into fine meat paste by the powerful force of this blow, and sprayed out from the other side. A thick layer covered a large area of ​​woodland.

The heavy meat mountain shook violently because of this blow and fell backwards, revealing Claude who was unharmed. The sharp thorn in his hand pierced deeply into the meat mountain. A large piece of flesh and blood was turning gray and white, and it spread rapidly throughout the meat mountain like a virus.

The squirming monster soon lost the strength to struggle. It was unclear whether it was Claude's sword or Saria's fist that caused it more damage. Although its tentacles were still grabbing anything it could devour, the speed at which its flesh and blood lost vitality far exceeded the speed of regeneration. In just a minute or two, it completely turned into a huge pile of dead meat.
