Chapter 4661 — The Intelligent Armor and the Laser Cannon
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 3
Dongfang Guo smiled faintly and gave a soft clap of his hands. At the sound, two young servants came in from outside, carrying a large chest half a man tall and looking very much strained by the effort.
Kang Jingming stepped forward impatiently and opened the chest. The moment he saw what lay inside, he drew in a sharp breath. "Holy shit! Isn't this a laser cannon? Good heavens above, and a suit of intelligent armor too?"
Even in the secular world, these two items were absolute rarities few could ever lay hands on, let alone out here on Cloud-Tier Island. The Center truly was formidable—they could even get hold of such things!
"These two should lend you a helping hand. Allow me to wish Brother Kang here every success!" Dongfang Guo offered the compliment with a smile.
"Hahahaha, that's a given! With gear like this, what have I got to fear?" Kang Jingming was overjoyed. When strength falls short, equipment makes up the difference. With a laser cannon and intelligent armor in hand, he would not fear even a face-to-face clash with Wei Zhao!
Seeing Kang Jingming so excited, Xu Lingchong was instead full of puzzlement. He looked the laser cannon and intelligent armor up and down and said, baffled, "What? Are these things really that useful?"
As a member of the Center, he had of course seen plenty of technological products from the secular world. But those things had only ever struck him as novel—convenient enough to use, perhaps, but to call them powerful would be nonsense. The so-called high-tech weapons especially could be summed up in four words: flashy but hollow.
They sounded impressive, but that only held among ordinary people. They would struggle even against a skilled Foundation Establishment cultivator, let alone a Nascent Soul cultivator who stood far above that realm. Could these two things really play any role in the West Island Trial?
"Young Master Xu, you mustn't underestimate the secular world's high-tech weapons, especially this laser cannon and intelligent armor. Their power and effect are simply beyond imagining until you've seen them with your own eyes." Kang Jingming's eyes shone as he looked at the two pieces of equipment. They had arrived at just the right moment—it was as if they had been tailor-made for him.
"You're not exaggerating, are you?" Xu Lingchong remained half doubtful.
"Heh heh, Young Master Xu, there's something you don't know. Don't listen to all those people in the secular world who say a Heaven-Tier grand completion cultivator is a walking atomic bomb—that's pure bluster. At most it's a matter of frightening destructive power and deterrence! But this laser cannon is one of the rare ultra-high-tech weapons of the secular world. Its power far exceeds that of ordinary technological weapons. I'd say never mind a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like Wei Zhao—even a Xuan Sheng cultivator could likely be pierced clean through with one blast!" Kang Jingming declared with absolute certainty.
"Really?" Xu Lingchong's eyelid twitched at the words. A Xuan Sheng cultivator pierced clean through with one blast—wouldn't that make this a top-tier weapon of mass destruction? If that were true, its value would be immense. The higher-ups had truly spared no expense for this West Island Trial.
