Chapter 4661 — The Intelligent Armor and the Laser Cannon
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 3
"Absolutely true. Young Master Xu, the most feared technological weapon in the secular world is the atomic bomb, but that thing is only good for killing ordinary people. Ordinary cultivators may not be able to withstand it either, but against a skilled hand of the Nascent Soul level, I'd say it would be of no use at all. This laser cannon is different!" Kang Jingming licked his dry lips, face alight with excitement. "The laser cannon isn't a weapon of wide-area destruction like the atomic bomb. It concentrates all its power into a single point. The terrifying point-to-point penetration and lethality are beyond imagining. Nascent Soul cultivators can't withstand it, and Xuan Sheng cultivators likely can't either. I even suspect there isn't a cultivator in the world who could!"
"That's impossible. The truly top-tier experts are beyond anything you can imagine. No matter how powerful a technological weapon is, it's just a pile of scrap metal before them—otherwise the secular world would be invincible." Xu Lingchong curled his lip.
He had never had much regard for the so-called technology of the secular world. To be precise, he looked down on the secular world entirely, and his understanding of true experts was far beyond that of a lowly half-baked sort like Kang Jingming. No matter how powerful a cultivator was, they couldn't withstand this tiny laser cannon? Nonsense!
"Yes, yes, Young Master Xu is right. Still, the laser cannon's lethality truly cannot be underestimated. I guarantee it will handle Wei Zhao without a problem!" Kang Jingming fawned with an awkward laugh.
"Mm. What you've said does sound a little interesting. But what's this 'walking atomic bomb' business? What is that supposed to be?" Xu Lingchong asked suddenly.
"Uh... it's one of the most powerful technological weapons in the secular world. It's hard to explain in a few words. Simply put, if West Island were hit with a heavyweight atomic bomb, it would probably vanish from the map of Cloud-Tier Island forever..." Kang Jingming thought for a moment and explained.
"That formidable?" Xu Lingchong was startled. "That's unbelievable. West Island has all kinds of top-tier defensive formations. Once they're all activated, even a Mountain-Opening stage magnate couldn't do a thing. You're joking, aren't you?"
"Heh heh, I was just making a comparison. If West Island had no defensive formations and was full of ordinary people, then one atomic bomb would leave it either sunk or ruined forever. That's why this thing carries such terrifying deterrence in the secular world." Kang Jingming explained.
"Is that so? Then it's no small matter. I didn't expect the secular world to have such tricks up its sleeve—able to build even something like this." Xu Lingchong nodded.
"Heh heh, Brother Kang here seems quite knowledgeable about these things. You've opened my eyes as well." Dongfang Guo chimed in with a smile from the side.
"Oh, he came up from the secular world. It'd be strange if he didn't know about these things." Xu Lingchong curled his lip.
"Oh oh oh, forgive my disrespect. No wonder Brother Kang is so familiar with the laser cannon and intelligent armor. Then Brother Kang surely knows more than I do, so I won't waste time introducing them and make a fool of myself! To be honest, I don't quite understand these things myself. Thank goodness I've met someone knowledgeable like you, Brother Kang!" Dongfang Guo said with a breath of relief.
"No problem. Isn't there a manual here anyway? There's still some time before the trial starts, so I'll just study it a bit. Leave it to me, haha!" Kang Jingming smiled smugly, then impatiently began tinkering with it. This was his capital and his reliance for dealing with Wei Zhao—whether he could ascend to the heavens in one step and win Ning Xuefei this time all depended on whether this thing was up to the task!
