After solving his own problem, Fang Zheng left Lizbeth's workshop. Of course, before leaving, Fang Zheng did not forget to remind Lizbeth to keep it secret for the time being, and Lizbeth nodded and agreed like a chicken pecking at rice. She was not stupid and knew what this meant, so she naturally did not dare to cause any more trouble.

However, Lisbeth didn't know that the reason why Fang Zheng didn't make better guns was not because he couldn't do it, but because he didn't want to make them.

Can't Fang Zheng make an M16? Can't he make a howitzer? Can't he make a Gatling gun?

Are you kidding? How could he not be able to do it?

But why does Fangzheng do this?

Weapons with long range and fierce firepower may sound powerful, but Fang Zheng knows that such things are basically useless to ordinary players.

The reason is simple: they are facing a digitized boss, not a real creature.

If it is an ordinary creature or monster, you might be able to kill it by lining up a bunch of people. But facing a monster that relies on health, this advantage is basically zero. Even if you find a hundred people and shoot the boss with AKs, the boss only needs to use a piercing move, a charge, and then a sweep, and I'm afraid half of you will die immediately.

How can you resist an attack when you have a gun in both hands? Hit me with your head?

Not only that, what worries Fang Zheng even more is that the emergence of this kind of weapon will give players a mysterious sense of confidence and will also cause many dangers - the proliferation of guns is a very serious problem in the real world, and it will only be more serious in the game world.

So after thinking it over again and again, Fang Zheng chose the hunter musket he had seen in Yharnam as the target for manufacturing - this musket itself was not very powerful and had a short range, so it was not worth using alone, but when used with melee weapons, it could help those powerful players reduce risks. This not only minimized the problems that might be caused by the proliferation of guns, but also reduced their appeal.

After all, the requirements for this kind of weapon are still very high, and it is useless for ordinary players.

As for whether others would imitate him because of his prompts, Fang Zheng was not worried at all. Although he only drew the blueprints with a few strokes, the precision of the parts drawings drawn by Fang Zheng was industrial grade, not a millimeter off. Fang Zheng felt that few players had this ability, and this was not a two-dimensional drawing, but a 3D model, which was even more difficult.

Even if someone really made an M16, Fang Zheng would not be afraid. As mentioned before, in this game world that relies on HP instead of physical damage, the power of guns is basically just for show. Fang Zheng can just rush forward and take a volley of bullets. As long as he gets in front of the opponent, he won't even have a chance to fight back.

When Fang Zheng returned to the guild headquarters, everyone who had gone to investigate according to Fang Zheng's order had already returned, and even Gabriel handed in her ten investigation reports with a bitter face. Fang Zheng did not waste any time and immediately opened them one by one and started reading.

Perhaps because most of the people in Fangzheng Guild are girls, everyone has their own hobbies and clubs to join. Of course, there are also some otakus - just look at Gabriel lying on the table like a silly Husky.

After looking through the list, Fang Zheng also made a decision.

"Let's do this. Notice them that starting tomorrow, we will set aside 120 minutes every afternoon for them to do what they want to do... Just like club activities, they can freely form teams according to their own ideas and do some interesting activities."

In Shana's world, Fang Zheng had once worked as a teacher in a Japanese high school for a period of time, so he had some understanding of the living habits of Japanese students.

"Is this necessary?"

As expected, the first person to object to Fang Zheng's decision was Asuna.

"We don't have enough manpower at the moment. Shouldn't we let them take on more combat and production tasks?"

"It is also important to combine work and rest, and..."

Having said this, Fang Zheng paused.

"If we can resume our daily activities in the real world to a certain extent, it will help people relax. The production team doesn't need to participate in the front-line battles, just don't forget to upgrade your levels. The combat team needs to work a little harder, but don't push them too hard. Currently, there are only a few of us in the front-line strategy team, so we don't need to accumulate too many resources. We just need to ensure the healthy growth of the entire guild. If we push them too hard all of a sudden, it will be counterproductive."

“…”

This time Asuna didn't say anything, but just stepped aside silently. Seeing that no one else had any objections, Fang Zheng waved his hand.

"Let's go, let's go conquer the maze copy on the second floor!"

The map of the second layer is not much different from the first layer, except that unlike the forest terrain of the first layer, the second layer is mostly flat terrain such as grasslands and wilderness. The advantage is that it is basically impossible for monsters to hide and attack, but the disadvantage is that once they are surrounded, it is very difficult to escape with the help of the terrain.

Most of the monsters that survived on the second floor were powerful monsters. Of course, they were not difficult to deal with for Fang Zheng and his companions, but for Fang Zheng, he brought everyone here to hunt not just to increase their level.

“——!!”

The bull-headed monster with a naked upper body rushed towards Fang Zheng with a big stick raised high. Facing the bull-headed monster in front of him, Fang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, then he suddenly raised the huge and strangely shaped machete in his hand and swung it forward.

“Crack!!”

The huge machete instantly stretched and split with Fang Zheng's swing, turning into a huge blade whip that hit the minotaur. Then Fang Zheng whipped out with his backhand again, completely repelling the minotaur in front of him, who was tall enough to play basketball as a power forward.

However, at this moment, the other two minotaurs surrounded him from the left and right. However, at the moment when they launched the attack, Fang Zheng suddenly withdrew his sword and rolled to avoid the attacks of the two minotaurs, and then swept out with the sword in his hand again.

The blade whip transformed into a giant python mercilessly lashed the bodies of the two minotaurs, smashing them into pieces.

Fang Zheng stood up and slammed the sword in his hand on the ground, transforming it from a whip into a one-handed sword. Then he suddenly jumped up and struck hard at the third minotaur that he had repelled before...

"Bang!"

Accompanied by flying debris, the last monster was completely defeated.

“So amazing…”

The girls stared at Fang Zheng blankly with their eyes wide open. In fact, when Fang Zheng demonstrated the transforming greatsword in front of them for the first time, everyone was shocked. And now, after watching it all the way, they felt more and more the power of this transforming weapon.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, where did you buy this weapon?"

At this moment, Black Cat finally couldn't help but stepped forward to inquire. As a person with a deep-seated chuunibyou, Black Cat had to admit that this one-handed greatsword that looked bloody, violent, and handsome looked really evil!

…Although there are a lot of messy adjectives in it, just pretend you didn’t see them.

As for why Black Cat was so sure that the sword was purchased and not dropped by monsters... well, after being with Fang Zheng for so long, almost everyone knew about his Black Face Aura Buff.

There's no need to go to such lengths.

“I made this myself.”

Fang Zheng glared at Black Cat unhappily. Even if I couldn't make a two-handed sword, you wouldn't be so sure that I bought it. Don't I have any face?

"Hey? Mr. Fang Zheng, you are not a blacksmith, right?"

"I learned a hidden skill - mapping."

Fang Zheng certainly would not hide these little things from his companions.

"This skill allows me to create my own weapon blueprint. Of course, my level of drafting is very low, and the materials I use are very common, so it doesn't have special properties like your weapons. I can only get a feel for it from this aspect."

“But it looks handsome!”

At this moment, Youji also came over excitedly, looking at the big sword in Fang Zheng's hand curiously.

"But it just... feels a little too vicious."

"If you want, I can also customize weapons that can transform for you."

Fang Zheng didn't care about it. On the contrary, he was trying to persuade her patiently, like a weird uncle who tricked the little girl into seeing the goldfish with a lollipop.

"How is it? Doesn't it look cool? It's more convenient to use? Not only can it take into account the speed of a one-handed weapon, but it can also increase the attack range and damage after transformation. If you don't want to use ordinary materials, you can go find rare materials to make weapons? Black Cat, do you want a sickle? I can help you?"

"Really?"

As expected, the black cat, who was already a middle school student to death, suddenly lit up his eyes when he heard about such a middle school weapon.

"I want it! Mr. Fang Zheng, please give me this blueprint! I want to name it myself... Well, let's call it the Scythe of Severing Destiny!"

"Then... Brother Fang Zheng, can I have one too? The one-handed sword I have now doesn't look that good..."

"Me too, Mr. Founder!"

With the black cat's lead, the other girls naturally gathered around without hesitation. In fact, they had long coveted Fang Zheng's transformable giant blade. However, they originally thought that Fang Zheng had bought it from someone, but when they found out that Fang Zheng had made it himself, they immediately became excited.

"No problem, leave it to me."

Looking at the girls swarming over, Fang Zheng patted his chest. This was also his plan - since he couldn't find any weapons, then everyone should just use custom weapons! As for the dropped equipment, just sell them all for money!

As the saying goes, what is worrying is not the lack of weapons but the inequality of distribution. I can't be the only one who can't get my hands on a weapon!
