Xia Chujian did not play the "guessing game" with Huo Yushen.
She sent Huo Yushen a video call invitation.
When Huo Yushen appeared on the virtual display screen before her, Xia Chujian said bluntly, "Mm, I just went to Master Su's place and discussed modifying new-type weapons ammunition with him."
"We'll soon have thermal weapons specifically designed for the Zerg."
"We won't need to count on scavenging parts from the Zerg to make cold weapons anymore."
Huo Yushen remained calm and collected. "...Master Su made another breakthrough?"
Xia Chujian said, "With my help, he did."
"I found several kinds of exotic metal that have remarkable effects against the Zerg..."
"As long as you add just a tiny amount to ordinary thermal weapons ammunition, it can inflict fatal damage on the Zerg!"
Huo Yushen was somewhat surprised. "...You found exotic metal with remarkable effects against the Zerg?"
"How much is there? How much weapon ammunition can it modify? How long will it take?"
His questions cut straight to the heart of the matter. They were all practical questions.
He did not ramble on asking where she had found it, how she had found it... questions that were purely matters of personal privacy.
Xia Chujian greatly appreciated that about Huo Yushen.
She did not need to explain anything and said easily, "There isn't much, but it's enough."
"Because with this stuff, just a tiny amount—a nano-level amount—is enough."
"The power is astonishing."
"If you want to know more, you can ask Master Su directly."
"I don't really understand those technical issues either."
As Xia Chujian spoke, she could not help yawning.
Weariness surged over her, and she truly could not hold on any longer.
Including the time before she came here, she had gone nearly a full day and night without sleep.
