Chapter 167: Chapter 121: The Fourth Reincarnation, Activate
After composing the message, Li Chang’an sent it to the group chat.
When they saw the scorched-black willow tree and the rows of unassuming Super Electromagnetic Cannons, the group chat fell silent.
The torrent of criticism came to a halt.
It was as if everyone had been seized by the throat, left speechless for a moment.
…
…
Cangxuan City.
After sending the photos, Li Chang’an had no intention of explaining further.
He had already said all that needed to be said.
Any further explanation would only make him look insecure.
In the end, the facts would speak for themselves.
At that moment, Su Ruobing finally snapped out of her shell-shocked daze.
She snapped her head up, glanced at the Super Electromagnetic Cannons behind Li Chang’an, and asked, “Aren’t the Super Electromagnetic Cannons still in the laboratory phase? How can the ones in your city output such terrifying destructive power?”
As the eldest daughter of the Su Family and the President of the Linjiang Reincarnator Association, Su Ruobing, despite being a Mage, still had a rudimentary understanding of various tech-based weapons.
Thus, once she came to her senses, she immediately pinpointed the crucial question—the Super Electromagnetic Cannons being researched by the major Reincarnator Families hadn’t even made it out of the lab!
Yet now, not only had Super Electromagnetic Cannons appeared in Li Chang’an’s Cangxuan City, they had even unleashed the terrifying power of a Tier Six or even Tier Seven weapon.
This was no simple matter.
Li Chang’an didn’t intend to hide anything. “I brought the technology back from a Rebirth World,” he explained. “The components were custom-ordered and assembled.”
Su Ruobing had guessed as much, but she couldn’t help but retort, “But aren’t you a Martial Arts Evolver?”
Li Chang’an rubbed his nose. “Is there a rule that says Martial Arts Evolvers can’t use technology? I dabble in a bit of everything. In fact, I’m planning to turn Cangxuan City into an arsenal and start producing military-grade equipment!”
Su Ruobing fell silent, recalling what Li Chang’an had said before.
He wanted to compete with the Gu Family for business.
To follow in their wake and pick up the scraps.
’So, the question is, can these Super Electromagnetic Cannons and Energy Particle Beam Cannons actually do that?’
’Yes, they can!’
’They absolutely can!’
’If he plays his cards right, this is about more than just picking up scraps.’
’He could strike a vicious blow right at the Gu Family’s heart!’
Taking several deep breaths to calm herself, Su Ruobing realized she might have underestimated just how formidable Li Chang’an truly was.
This super-genius didn’t just have limitless potential on the Martial Arts Evolution Path; he also possessed a talent in other fields that was beyond the imagination of an ordinary person!
At this thought, Su Ruobing’s heart soared.
After all, she and the Gu Family had always been at odds. Due to pressure from her own family, she had been forced to retreat to Linjiang and enter a wager with Gu Ruilong over who could better manage their respective territories.
But now, Li Chang’an could actually produce weapons more advanced than those from the Gu Family’s own factories. If these could truly be mass-produced and distributed, it would be tantamount to plunging a dagger into the Gu Family’s lifeline.
The resulting impact would be staggering!
In a flash, Su Ruobing had already weighed the pros and cons. She asked eagerly, “So, if I wanted to order some Super Electromagnetic Cannons, how much would you sell them for?”
Li Chang’an did a quick mental calculation.
His tone was a little uncertain as he said, “Right now, all the components for these weapons are procured from external suppliers, so the assembly cost is relatively high…”
Su Ruobing immediately understood what he meant.
’Cangxuan City only has the core technology but lacks a complete production line. This means production costs are high, and they’re always at risk of having their supply chain throttled by others.’
For her, however, that wasn’t a problem.
Su Ruobing said at once, “As for a production line, I can free up a factory for you in Lijiang City. Go ahead and run the numbers again. If the price is right, the impact of this could be no less than that of the Martial Arts Evolution Path you uploaded… maybe even greater!”
After all, while the Martial Arts Evolution Path had drawn a lot of attention, it was ultimately a good thing that grew the pie for everyone.
It didn’t threaten the interests of the vast majority.
But an arsenal was something else entirely. This act of snatching market share from the Reincarnator Families would undoubtedly cause a massive uproar throughout the entire city-defense-equipment industry!
…
Three days later, the overwhelming tide of Dark Energy finally receded.
The Exotic Beast Tide was over.
But the discussions sparked by the name Li Chang’an were far from over.
The day after the Exotic Beast Tide ended, nearly half of all Reincarnators from Linjiang flocked to Cangxuan City. When they personally laid eyes on the giant peach tree that stood nearly a hundred meters tall, the crowd of Reincarnators couldn’t help but gasp.
Its absurd size, its omnipresent and oppressive aura…
Everything about it showcased the terror of a special Tier Five Extraordinary Beast!
Yet such a terrifying existence had now fallen at the hands of a Newcomer Reincarnator. No matter how you looked at it, the whole thing seemed utterly preposterous!
Under the personal guidance of Su Ruobing and Li Chang’an, the group of Reincarnators proceeded to the city’s barbican, where engineers provided a detailed overview of the information and parameters for the Super Electromagnetic Cannon and the Energy Particle Beam Cannon.
When they discovered that the two weapons produced by Li Chang’an were a full twice as powerful as externally available models, yet cost less than twenty percent more, many of the Reincarnators immediately expressed their intent to order Energy Particle Beam Cannons and Super Electromagnetic Cannons.
