Quan Yi touched the scorching hot gun barrel with his hand, glanced down at the countless scattered shell casings, and felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

The joy was no less than the feeling of obtaining External Soul Bone.

Machine guns, true Slaughter machines.

Historically, a squad of fifty men, armed with four heavy machine guns, repelled an attack by an army of five thousand. In that battle, three thousand of the five thousand soldiers perished under the gunfire.

With an ultra-long range of over 1,000 meters and an ultra-fast firing rate of over 600 rounds per minute, even Quan Yi's Third Soul Skill, the Scorching Ray, has a maximum range of no more than this.

After calming down, Quan Yi asked Blacksmith Yuan for the specific details.

"How many machine guns can we produce per day at this stage?"

Blacksmith Yuan replied, "We can produce ten bicycles a day without affecting Bicycle production."

After a moment 'Quan Yi immediately instructed, "Starting today, immediately start the Production Line for machine guns and their ammunition."

"Yes!" Blacksmith Yuan paused, then asked Quan Yi, "Young Master, how many units do we need to produce?"

Quan Yi smiled and said, "We will tentatively produce 1,000 machine guns for now. As for the ammunition, the more the better. I will use half of the research and development funds to purchase materials."

In a few days, these materials will be delivered steadily.

Upon hearing this, Blacksmith Yuan was suddenly shocked. Half of the research and development budget was no small amount.

Their annual R&D budget is over ten million Gold Soul Coin, half of which is five million Gold Soul Coin.

Even if a machine gun is made with expensive materials, the cost is only about one Gold Soul Coin.

One thousand units would cost around one million Gold Soul Coin.

As for bullets, they are even cheaper, costing only about ten Copper Soul Coins per bullet.

The remaining four million Gold Soul Coin can be used to forge four billion bullets.

Although Blacksmith Yuan didn't quite understand Quan Yi's ideas, he still chose to obey Quan Yi's orders.

Blacksmith Yuan's submissive attitude was an important reason why Quan Yi entrusted him with such an important task.

After informing Blacksmith Yuan of the future production plan, Quan Yi looked at the machine gun again.

At that moment, a peculiar idea arose in his mind.

He immediately asked Blacksmith Yuan, "Are there any bullets left? I want to continue testing the machine gun's performance."

"We still have a few boxes of bullets, about eight thousand in total. However, the steel plate we used for testing has been pierced, and we can't make a new one for testing in a short time."

Blacksmith Yuan underestimated the terrifying power of the machine gun, so he did not prepare spare steel plates.

However, Quan Yi suddenly crossed the firing platform and walked directly in front of the machine gun.

As they walked, Quan Yi said to Blacksmith Yuan, "You can leave the target to me. You just need to get the bullets and guns set up first."

Upon receiving the order, Blacksmith Yuan immediately moved the remaining ammunition boxes aside and then refilled the gun barrel with water.

Just as Blacksmith Yuan was preparing, Quan Yi had already reached the position of the steel plate.

I witnessed the terrifying power of the machine gun up close.

Quan Yi squatted down and gently stroked the fallen steel plate with his palm. He saw that the Iron Essence plate, which was several centimeters thick, had been pierced by bullets, leaving only uneven holes.

This type of steel plate is several times thicker than the armor worn by soldiers. If a machine gun can penetrate the steel plate, it means that it can also penetrate the armor of soldiers.

Quan Yi walked past the first steel plate and onto the second. Here, it became clear that some of the bullets had failed to penetrate, leaving only dents.

This part shows the distinctive marks left by a bullet that lost power after passing through the second steel plate.

The remaining holes were caused by bullets firing in a straight line after the first steel plate fell.

This shows that the penetrating power of a bullet is also limited; once it penetrates a steel plate, its kinetic energy will be greatly reduced.

However, the limited quantity of a single bullet could be compensated for by a large quantity, Quan Yi was very satisfied with the test results for the machine gun.

Just as Quan Yi was admiring the gun marks, Quan Yi the Blacksmith Yuan shouted to him from afar, "Young Master, everything is ready."

Quan Yi turned and walked toward Blacksmith Yuan, but when he was about 500 meters away, he suddenly stopped.

Amidst the Blacksmith Yuan's puzzled gaze, Quan Yi presented his suggestion to Blacksmith Yuan.

He shouted, "Blacksmith Yuan, set up your gun and fire at me!"

The Blacksmith Yuan immediately doubted his ears, asking incredulously, "What? Young Master, what are you saying?"

Quan Yi shouted again, "Shoot at me!"

Immediately afterwards, Quan Yi's hands produced Blazing Sun Gauntlets, and six Soul Ring appeared behind him. The powerful aura emanating from his body greatly shocked Blacksmith Yuan.

The Blacksmith Yuan swallowed hard in fear and, under Quan Yi's command, gripped the gun handle with difficulty.

He shouted loudly at Quan Yi, "Ready!"

"Start!"

"Put-put-put"

The next moment, Blacksmith Yuan decisively pulled the trigger, and countless bullets shot in a straight line toward Quan Yi.

Quan Yi stared directly at the muzzle of the gun; his dynamic vision, after reaching the Soul Emperor level, had reached a terrifying level.

With a beautiful initial velocity of over 700 meters, Quan Yi could barely catch it.

Moreover, in order to more quickly track the trajectory of the bullet, Quan Yi used his Divine Power to sense the area in front of him.

The combination of dynamic vision and Divine Power allows Quan Yi to pinpoint the location of every single bullet.

However, being able to sense it doesn't mean that Quan Yi can dodge it.

At least ten bullets were fired at Quan Yi every second, and with Quan Yi's physical speed, he simply couldn't dodge them.

Even if he manages to dodge the first few bullets by anticipating their movement, Blacksmith Yuan only needs to slightly move the muzzle of his gun to easily catch up with Quan Yi.

However, it didn't matter that he couldn't avoid it, as Quan Yi had never intended to hide from the beginning.

As the bullet hurtled closer, Quan Yi clenched his fists, and the black Soul Ring behind him lit up.

In an instant, red light surged beneath his feet, and a surge of immense Soul Power erupted from Quan Yi's body.

A giant dragon head, four meters tall, rises from the ground.

As it climbed, the dragon head opened its mouth and swallowed the Quan Yi.

The next instant, the fired bullet struck the Red Dragon's head.

"Clang clang clang"

A dull thud echoed from the ground.

Bullets that can easily penetrate steel plates were deflected upon impact with the dragon's head, leaving no mark on its surface.

When Blacksmith Yuan saw the Red Dragon swallow Quan Yi Quan Yi to protect him, he immediately understood that this was Quan Yi's Soul Skill.

At the same time, after seeing the defensive power of Quan Yi's Soul Skill, he finally felt relieved and began to test the machine gun without any scruples.

Standing on the transparent dragon head, Quan Yi felt as if he were enveloped in warm pool water, shielding him from external harm.

Looking at the bullets that were blocked by his Sixth Soul Skill, Scarlet Dragon Descent, he revealed a satisfied smile.

The Scarlet Dragon Descent, employing its skills to Partial Summoning.

It is possible to summon a portion of the Scarlet Dragon by consuming a very small amount of Soul Power.

Although it is only a part, its strength does not weaken; on the contrary, it is strengthened by condensation.

Bullets capable of penetrating steel plates are useless against the Scarlet Dragon's defenses.
