Five days passed in a flash. Ye Zi received a call from an unknown number, but judging from the caller ID, it was someone from inside the Gates of Hell.
After the call was connected, the person on the other end said:
"I'm the mechanic. Your machine gun is ready. Come over and test it when you have time."
Ye Zi perked up immediately upon hearing this and said:
"I'm coming over now."
Upon hearing Ye Zi's reply, the mechanic hung up the phone immediately.
Ye Zi immediately changed direction and drove towards the suburbs.
Upon arrival, the same two security guards were still at the entrance. Ye Zi rolled down the glass to show her face, and the guards nodded before opening the gate.
The car entered smoothly. There were no cars in the yard, so I parked wherever I could find a spot. When I got out of the car, I casually took out the double maces and carried them into the villa.
There were no young people in the living room; instead, several middle-aged men were chatting idly.
He nodded to the group as a greeting, and then nodded back to the person facing Ye Zi.
They took the elevator downstairs, and as soon as the elevator doors opened, Wang Baozhang came over, and then they went to the mechanic's place together.
Upon arriving at the destination, Ye Zi looked at the items laid out on the ground and exclaimed in surprise:
"Modified?"
"I made some minor changes," the mechanic's calm voice came from behind the bar.
Ye Zi examined the equipment on the ground, and the mechanic came out from behind the counter to introduce it:
"The domestically produced rotary machine gun has a caliber of 5.8 mm. It is not widely used in China and is mainly exported. It is suitable for off-road vehicles, pickup trucks and light armored vehicles."
The rate of fire starts at 2,500 rounds and goes up to just over 5,000.
The one in front of you has been fixed at 3,000 rounds. I removed some parts to reduce the weight and simplified the operation.
The mechanic squatted down next to the machine gun and began to explain: the power switch, the idle switch, the firing switch, the maintenance switch, and how to load bullets.
After explaining all this, the mechanic looked at Ye Zi and gave her a look that said, "Did you remember?"
Ye Zi smiled and said:
"I've got it, but I'll need some time to learn how to do the maintenance."
“Of course,” the mechanic replied, then continued to explain the ammunition box.
"This is a modified helicopter ammunition box, 30,000 rounds per box, enough for you to cause trouble for ten minutes. If you can't solve the problem in ten minutes, then you'll have to find a solution yourself."
Ye Zi grinned and said:
"If this box of bullets still can't handle it, then I have more faith in my hand-to-hand combat skills than in the machine gun. Besides, there's still another box."
"That's what I wanted to say too. A box of bullets can only last for ten minutes, and a battery can only last that long."
When you change the ammo box, you also need to change the battery.
However, the battery and ammo box are connected together, so all you need to do is…” the mechanic explained while demonstrating.
After performing the entire procedure once, Yezi nodded, indicating that she understood.
Then the mechanic said:
"Let's go, let's try out the gun."
Ye Zi first tied the double maces to her lower back, then put the ammunition box on her back. She felt it was okay; although the double maces were pressed down by the ammunition box, it didn't prevent her from pulling them out.
He then hung the spare ammunition box around his neck, moved around a bit, and tested whether it would interfere with firing.
Then he grinned and said:
"Looks like I'm still short two boxes of spare ammunition."
"Let's try it first. I can prepare ten for you, but only if they don't interfere with shooting."
Ye Zi raised an eyebrow, giving the mechanic a "we'll see" look.
After the three arrived at the shooting range, the mechanic signaled to Ye Zi that they could begin.
Ye Zi chose a 200-meter human-shaped target, powered it on, let it spin freely, and then fired.
The first humanoid target was shattered into pieces within three seconds, then the second, the third, the fourth, and the fifth.
Ye Zi shattered all five humanoid targets with burst fire, and then began to unleash her full power on the sixth humanoid target.
He didn't stop until the ammunition box on his back was emptied.
He then slung the empty ammunition box off his back, put down the ammunition box on his chest, quickly changed the feeding chain, and finally put on the second ammunition box to continue firing.
This time, the target was not a human-shaped target, but a range target, which is usually used for practicing with rifle grenades or hand grenades.
But Ye Zi gripped the machine gun, aimed at the target, and fired.
The first burst of bullets went outside the target area because this was a test of the bullet impact point; the remaining bullets were all hit within the target area.
The machine guns ceased fire, and Ye Zi couldn't help but shout:
"Cool."
Wang Baozhang, with an expression of looking at a new recruit, leaned closer and asked:
"A Gatling gun blazing, that's the dream of so many people. You fired for twenty minutes straight, 60,000 rounds of ammunition, each round costing eight dollars, and that's how you spent 480,000 dollars."
"But twenty minutes of pleasure is definitely worth it for a multi-millionaire like you."
Ye Zi paused for a moment, then asked in return:
"Do I have to pay for these bullets? Didn't you come here to test the gun?"
It wasn't that Ye Zi was stingy with the money, but rather that there would be plenty of opportunities like this in the future, and there was no need to waste her own money on this.
“No need,” Wang Baozhang said matter-of-factly.
Ye Zi rolled her eyes at him and said:
Why are you telling me this when I don't need to pay the bill?
"It's just my personality; when I see you're too happy, I can't help but want to pour some cold water on you."
While Ye Zi and Wang Baozhang were chatting idly, the mechanic put down his binoculars. The target was covered in dust, and it took him a little while to see the result.
I raised my other hand to check the stopwatch.
"Twenty-eight minutes and nineteen seconds, that's a good speed. As a beginner, you're quite qualified," the mechanic praised.
Ye Zi grinned and said:
"Give me some time, I'll practice reloading."
The mechanic nodded and said:
"You will receive two carry ammunition boxes, two spare ammunition boxes, and one secondary spare ammunition box, for a total of 150,000 rounds of ammunition."
That's enough for you to cause trouble for an hour.
"Thank you then."
The mechanic nodded, then turned and left the firing range.
To be honest, the two boxes of bullets are quite heavy. Each bullet weighs 13 grams, so 30,000 bullets would weigh 390,000 grams, or 780 jin (340 kg).
The weight of the box itself, the battery, and the ammunition belts connecting the bullets adds up to around 1,000 kilograms.
Ye Zi needs to carry two boxes at a time, which is 2,000 jin (1,000 kg).
Adding the weight of the double maces, the weight is terrifying, but it's not difficult for Ye Zi.
Ye Zi possesses immense strength, equivalent to five tons, while all the weapons and ammunition combined amount to just over one ton.
This is like an adult with 100 pounds of strength carrying a 20-pound backpack on a long journey. The distance is long, so it will be stressful, but not too much.
As for the other three ammunition boxes, no matter what operation Ye Zi is participating in, there will definitely be someone to meet her, and there will definitely be transportation before she arrives at the mission location. Ye Zi does not need to carry five ammunition boxes at once.
If you're traveling alone, it's even easier; you just need to put it in the storage space.
Let alone 150,000 rounds of ammunition, I could easily get five more boxes.
