Hey guys it’s me again!! Ahahaha! Aaah running out of original ideas for my authors intro. Well putting them all to my book isn’t a bad thing but I don’t wanna be one of those “the book is good but this author has no soul” type of thing ya know? AND THIS IS ONLY THE 10TH CHAPTER!!! Ugh. Aaanyway hope you enjoy this chapter! I really love talking about guns and their alternate world types. IT’S SO FUN!!!

Chapter 10

-Me(how to blow shit up)-

The decent to the basement took a while. Well you know, when you have to travel about a mile underground at a leisurely pace, of course it’s going to be slow. However, when we got there their eye grew to the size of freakin stars. Stars?? Well I can understand them, I mean the lab is ginormous. You have a firing range, a research division, a black forge, a coolant sector, and an experimental weapons testing grounds in here. All in all, the place covers a 4 square mile distance so yeah, big.

As I led them to the experimental weapons site their eyes wandered all over the place with excitement. What did you guys never have such tech before? Is this new? Really? Well if you’re the peaceful race I think you are than I guess that would be natural but still, to not have any tech cool looking like this is kind of… well not brilliant. You’re relying too much on the good nature of others. Not everyone is a good person you’d like them to be. Honestly, more people have a wretched personality than benevolent. A sad truth to the world.

When we arrived I gave them the intro one needs to give when introducing badass weaponry. What? Badass weaponry is badass. If this shit could be implemented, heh, I could rule the world if I wanted to. Though I don’t. let me say it again. I DO NOT WANT THE WORLD. Way too much of a pain in the ass. That’s for those uptight goody two shoes type. Meh continuing on.

“Alrighty everyone! This is my experimental site! You have weapons here ranging from using a liquid energy to rapidly melt, or implode, really almost anything, you can zap your enemies with a high…. Fuck it, you can shoot lasers, glowy liquid shit, high powered rail guns, and explosives here. Ah speaking of glowy liquid shit look.” I said and pointed to a translucent vat of glowy liquid shit. “It’s highly condensed pure energy… I’m done with these smart ass comments, it’s plasma, and it’s blue. Aaand it glows.” I put my face and a hand on the vat and with the other hand pointed at it. “Ahhhh glowy liquid shit is the best.” I turn to see some, odd gazes. Don’tyoujudgeme. This shit is cool! AND IT GLOWS!!! How often can you shoot glowy liquid shit at people? Not often I’ll tell you that! actually this is the first vat of this plasma stuff anyway.

“Uuuuuh moving on then!” I lead them to where my experimental weapons were laid and showed them the first one. “Though I have twenty different types right now this is the first of them.” I pick up an assault rifle. It had a slick black chassis with some bulk requiring two hands on it at all times. It had one small barrel on the top and one large barrel under it. The sights were the type that when you brought it up it would register as you trying to look down the sights and bring up a variable zoom reticle. You also had to put your whole hand into the bulk of the weapon in order to fire it. Though it does require two hands if you are strong enough it can be done with one. “This is what I call the X01. It’s a new weapon that I’m currently testing that combines both the railgun principles and plasma shot principles. Is it difficult to combine? Mother fucking yes. You have no idea how hard it was to combine them. Ah enough talking I’ll just show you what it does.”

I walked over to the experimental weapon, which shall now be called EW, testing site and brought up a target. I placed my hand in the gun and took aim at the target. After a moment of silence, I pulled the trigger. The barrels lit up in a bright blue flash then a projectile shot out. At the chance you could see it it looked like an oblong ball of swirling energy encasing a smaller piece of metal. When it made impact with the target it created a small corona of energy then shortly after caused a massive explosion of blue fire and plasma. The target existed no longer.

“So what it does is once it makes contact with the target the energy breaks open releasing the metal ball for the penetrating effect then with that open wound the plasma and fire rapidly invade the body causing a small discharge, then, after a few micro seconds, from the compression of the opening/wound the shot causes an explosion. The less compression the more fire will be generated, and opposite to that the more compression the more the plasma will be released. It’s meant for destroying anything other than people. Sure it could kill a person, well melt them to be exact, but it’s effectiveness is shown through armorcrafts. It’s severely inefficient for anti-personnel. Still fun to shoot though.” I explained to them.

Afterwards I show them a few of the others that range from being able to split upon contact and tracking another target to firing a constant stream of high intensity highly, condensed fire, at unreasonable distances. When I finished showing them that I brought them to my personal favorite.

“I call this Despair Incarnate.” I pointed at the weapon. It was a seven barrel gatling railgun. “You see the problem with most railguns is that it takes a while for the discharged energy to be recovered. Well I removed that problem with this, though it does take a bit for the charge so it can actually shoot. This thing can fire a round similar to the T-168 rifle only it’s power is on par with a PAG. The speed of which is 1 shot per second after the initial 5 second prep charge. It can switch between three different modes. First is the normal rounds with massive penetration, the second being explosive rounds which it explodes for every target it passes though, and the third being combined fire. It’ll shoot seven shots in the option of spread, narrow, or normal. It alternates, from each shot, between normal railgun shots and explosive.

Heh heh heh, this thing will rip through even Tyrandyl. Well it’ll take a couple shots but it’s still possible. When it goes into overheat you can switch the mode to fire off plasma which uses the excess heat as both a propellant and for power. Though you’ll only get about two shots off, they are just as strong as the railgun. After this you’ll enter a cooldown of about two minutes. This thing’s only drawback is that you can only fire it for about two minutes so it overheats quickly.

I need an ice core of sorts in order to eliminate that, only the core can’t be made on this continent. I need to go to the mainland of Beria, this is Corg by the way, in order to make it. When I do it’ll reduce the coold down to 30 seconds and increase firing time to six minutes. Oh aaand the ammo is auto generated. I copied a core from some genius that when you put matter in the same matter can be taken out. It has a limited capacity in which you can replace the old with new or recharge with energy, of which it uses light and/or electricity to recharge, the intensity of light obviously increases the recharge, so it can replicate another for use. Its capacity is enough for six uses of six-minute firing. Or you could just use another ammo to place in it to replicate the same amount. Either recharge if you run completely out or replace if you have spare.

I, and my parents, have spent a long time on this project. It’s the ultimate game changer for our race for this time period. All I need is the ice core to complete it, and we’ll get that when we go to make peace with the other countries.” I say as I finish the display show. Phew, that left me a little winded. “Damien you’ll be the one to lug this around. I’ll personalize it for you and I can add a few mods for your own tastes if you want. I personally can’t even lift it without my suit so this is definitely your weapon.”

“Alright. I assume I’ll be learning about it soon enough?” Surprisingly he seemed a little into it. Dude we may become gun buddies!! If he gets into guns as I it’ll be so freakin cool!! Please, please fall into gun nuttiness. I beg of you!!!!!

“Yup, I’ll train everyone to their respective weapons for the next five days and after those who are not reverting shall be further trained, only a little harsher than now. Though I know you all want a demo I can’t allow the use of the DIe in here because it’ll pierce even these walls, soooo no, but don’t worry, I predict at least one country is going to give us problems so you’ll get to see it in action then.” I said with a slightly twisted smile.

I certainly hope it’s this country though. If the others were to deem us as an issue it’ll be a problem, like BIG problem. This country does, in fact, have a strong military force, however their numbers are significantly lower than on the mainland so that gives us the advantage for now. If they are able to receive reinforcements than things are going to look a little grim for us. Though this is the most hated country at the moment, I still don’t think they’ll be abandoned so I shall prepare for them to receive reinforcements.

This is actually scary. I really don’t want to lose a single Syrlyn but shit happens and sometimes you don’t have a choice. Damn. Trying to take in account of every situation is so... unfortunately impossible. I know nothings happened yet but now that it's almost time to enact the plan I'm getting nervous. Why? I shouldn't be this attached to them. I should not be this worried at all so why? Ugh, emotions are such a pain in the ass.

Anyway, as I was deep in thought the others were talking amongst themselves about the weaponry they'll be using soon. I let out a sigh and spoke up to everyone "Alright, since there's nothing else to do for the rest of the day I guess we'll start the training now." No need to fret over the future now. Prepare for later so that now can be saved I guess. However, what's this damn bad vibe I'm getting?

-Them-

"Sir I have reports of some disappearances in a small town college and village." a secretary like man addressed another behind a desk.

"Oh? And what significance is that to me? Some small town backwash doesn't even affect my great city so what do I care?" the man replied with a heartless look on his face.

"Well it was quite a few that disappeared." the secretary advised.

"How many?" the man asked with the slightest hint of interest.

"About 400, give or take 20." the secretary answered

"Oh? That is a rather large number. So? What's your point?" the man asked indifferently.

"I had thought it would be good to let you know sir. It is unusual for so many to disappear in only a couple days." the secretary stated.

"So what if a couple hundred country bumpkins go missing. It's of no consequence to us so unless you have something pertaining to the city get out of my face." the man commanded coldly.

"Yes sir." the secretary obeyed and took his leave.

"400 huh? Well I guess it won't hurt to keep watch. If it can happen there, it's possible to happen here." He said to no one in particular.
