Chapter 634 Three New Weapons
In less than two minutes, the fat man had found a large stack of unused papers.
He shared a portion with Xiao Zhao, and the two of them each lay on a table, diligently drawing the design blueprints for their new weapons.
In less than five minutes, Xiao Zhao finished his work, grabbed the blueprints, and skipped over to the experienced craftsman, excitedly exclaiming.
"Master, Master, look at the appearance of this weapon. Can it be manufactured?"
The experienced craftsman reached out and took the blueprints, examined them carefully, and then nodded.
"No problem, leave it to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a circuit breaker snapping suddenly rang out, the roof lights flickered, and then the scene fell silent.
After the power test was completed, the main power switch was quickly switched back on. This time, the lights illuminated the entire factory building, and the indicator lights on the large machines on both sides lit up one after another. Power was back on!
...
Everyone's faces lit up with joy. Without saying a word, the old master craftsman took the drawings made by Xiao Zhao, turned around and walked to the machine to start working.
He started typing furiously on the machine's keypad, rediscovering the familiar feeling of his work, and his body trembled with excitement...
Before long, the weapon design on Xiao Zhao's paper was copied onto a screen by the master craftsman.
Then, he continuously fine-tuned the various parameters according to the appropriate proportions.
The design on the screen was sometimes stretched and sometimes shrunk, showing that he was really putting a lot of effort into designing the new weapon that Xiao Zhao needed.
...
Meanwhile, the other technicians Hank brought back also began working.
Some people went to obtain the strongest and most resilient materials; others were adjusting and designing the proportions of the various components in the alloy to be optimal.
To forge a good weapon, it is obviously not possible to use only one type of material. Only by adjusting the components in the most reasonable proportion can the final weapon be both strong and tough!
In addition to these, some people preheat the crucible; others adjust the machine parameters and design new injection molds... and so on. A series of preliminary preparations are being carried out simultaneously...
These experienced workers have worked together for so many years that they don't need much verbal communication to know exactly what they should be doing; their teamwork is truly remarkable.
Although it was their first time forging weapons, it was a career change without a change of profession. They had many things in common and both required strong technical support.
Everyone wanted to showcase their talents at this moment, using all the knowledge deeply rooted in their minds to provide the best technical support to Han Shuo and his team who had been kind to them!
...
Han Shuo, standing to the side, watched the experienced workers smiling and bustling about, and before he knew it, he was deeply infected by this positive atmosphere.
He instinctively walked over and inadvertently saw the design drawings of Xiao Zhao's new weapon on the screen.
"oh?"
He let out a soft "hmm," stared intently for a while, and then nodded with a smile.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad, this is interesting."
He sighed silently, noticing that Xiao Zhao's new "military shovel" had a very peculiar appearance.
The overall length of the handle has been increased by more than two times, which shows that Xiao Zhao clearly understands the hard truth that when fighting zombies and alien species, an inch longer means an inch stronger.
Apart from these, the appearance of the top has not changed much, only a few minor adjustments have been made. The two ends of the blade are smooth and sharp on one side, while more small serrations have been added to the other side.
In fact, when Han Shuo saw the design drawings, he thought that this peculiar weapon could no longer be considered a military shovel.
As for what it should be called, he couldn't say for sure; it was like a halberd with a shovel attached.
Clearly, Xiao Zhao had lengthened his new weapon, merging the two weapons together...
...
After standing there for a while, Han Shuo felt a great curiosity.
He turned around and walked behind the fat man, also wanting to see the sketches the fat man was drawing of the new weapon...
At the same time, just as the fat man crumpled up the unsatisfactory sketch in his hand and threw it aside, he heard footsteps coming from behind him.
The next moment, he instinctively turned around and asked.
"What are you doing? What do you want to do?!"
Han Shuo casually replied and bent down to pick up the crumpled paper from the ground.
"Let me see what your new weapon looks like."
Before he could finish speaking, the fat man was one step ahead of him. He hurriedly picked up the crumpled paper from the ground and hid it in his pocket, pouting as he spoke.
"Get out of here, you brat! You can't watch!"
...
"you!"
Han Shuo paused for a moment, about to unleash his furious tirade, but then stopped himself from speaking.
"Alright, alright, this fatso is still being so mysterious."
"If I don't want to see it, I don't want to see it. Anyway, I'll see it sooner or later once the new weapon is completed."
After muttering to himself for a moment, he felt a little bored, so he rolled his eyes at the fat man and turned to leave.
...
Before we knew it, it was afternoon.
Meanwhile, Xiao Zhao's new weapon had already begun to be forged, while the fat man's design sketches were still not finished.
He casually tossed crumpled pieces of paper onto the ground, clearly indicating that this kid had a problem making choices.
In Han Shuo's eyes, this person seemed to be sick, because he was just too conflicted.
Is it really necessary to take so long to design a new weapon?
Look at Xiao Zhao, how fast he is!
...
Han Shuo was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He found a slightly cleaner room and started to rest.
Another hour passed, and the fat man finally handed the two sketches to one of the master craftsmen.
Yes, there are two sketches. His great shield was destroyed in the last great battle, and besides a new axe, he also wants a new great shield...
Next, it was time for these experienced craftsmen to get busy.
The forging process of the three weapons was slower than everyone had expected.
A group of people worked until midnight that day, but they still hadn't finished. It wasn't until the evening of the next day that the three freshly made weapons were handed over to Xiao Zhao and Fatty.
At the same time, Han Shuo finally saw the true face of the three new weapons!
...
Leaving aside Xiao Zhao's side, he had already seen the design drawings. After the final product was completed, there was not much difference between the two. Simply put, it was a new military shovel in the shape of a halberd.
The fat guy's version is a bit more exaggerated...
His new axe was alright, it was just a bit bigger, and he had replaced the single-edged axe with a double-edged axe.
As for his other large shield, its appearance has been completely changed.
The shape changed from oval to... round at the top and conical at the bottom, and the hand-held side was covered with crisscrossing, irregular, textured stripes.
That's not all. In addition to these exaggerated decorations, the other side of the shield is also densely covered with countless small spikes.
Seeing this, Han Shuo patted his forehead as if in a headache.
"My God, is this kid not satisfied with just one double-edged axe? Is he planning to attack with a big shield from now on?"
...
