Nothing Is Impossible in the Future

"Whoosh!"

A normal gunshot makes a 'bang' sound, while the Infinite Gun's firing is more like an arrow being released from its sheath.

A one-millimeter-long steel needle, as thin as a hair, is the bullet for the Infinite Gun.

Although it combines kinetic and electrical energy, this firearm's firing power is lackluster; its only advantage lies in its extremely high magazine capacity.

"If used properly, this gun has extremely high limiting capabilities, giving it an advantage against both single and multiple opponents, and even the ability to fire three shots at once!"

Above the arm guard, when the thin membrane shell used for charging is removed, three small barrels are revealed, and the direction can be adjusted by bending the fingers.

As Zhou Yueyan explained, this gun can indeed fire three shots at once.

However, the downside of firing three shots at once is that the effective range is only 100 meters, while firing two shots at once can achieve a range of 200 meters, and firing a single shot has the longest effective range of 300 meters.

No matter how Zhou Yueyan explains it, it can't escape the feeling that the Infinite Gun is a useless feature.

"What was the designer of this infinite gun thinking? Hitting someone is already difficult enough, but hitting vital organs like the eyes or throat is even more difficult," Zhang Xuezhou complained. "So, if you're using this gun in a shootout, if someone shoots me dead, I can just inflict some minor scratches!"

"Young man, do you know what the biggest problem is in wilderness survival?"

Before Zhou Yueyan could reply, the old man who had accompanied Pei Jinghong to test the gun became displeased.

"The biggest problem in wilderness survival is resupply!"

"Ordinary firearms only have thirty rounds of ammunition, and even the most powerful ones will be quickly depleted. Replenishing ammunition in the wild is not an easy task!"

"The Unlimited Gun not only has a 300-round ammunition capacity, but its emergency reloading capability allows it to be loaded directly from objects of similar size, such as wooden spikes—something currently difficult for other firearms on the market to do!"

"Its lack of kinetic energy and impact is a disadvantage, but it's also an advantage when loading ammunition!"

"It even has a thin solar panel to continuously replenish the firearm's power, allowing it to fire effectively even if the kinetic energy device fails!"

"As long as you shoot accurately enough, this is a firearm with unlimited ammo for wilderness survival!"

The old man pointed at the Infinite Gun that Zhang Xuezhou had casually fired, clearly dissatisfied with Zhang Xuezhou's understanding of firearms.

"Many of those who ventured into the Qin Meng ruins perished due to lack of supplies," the old man said. "But this 'Infinite' weapon truly has unlimited ammunition, ensuring a worry-free supply!"

"This is Professor Gao Qiang, the designer of the Infinite Gun," Zhou Yueyan introduced.

The research institute produces some strange and unusual weapons every year.

At first glance, it seems to make perfect sense, but it's completely unsuitable for normal people.

Let alone normal people, even someone like Zhang Xuezhou, whose shooting skills are outstanding among the younger generation, is not doing well at this time.

Although it's described as a firearm, it's more like a genetically engineered weapon.

"Have you ever thought about this," Zhang Xuezhou reminded him, "That if you have enough accuracy, it would be easier to just grab a handful of pebbles from the ground and throw them?"

"Uh-huh!"

Professor Gao Qiang thought a lot about firearms, but various design theories couldn't compare to the most primitive methods.

Zhang Xuezhou's argument made him turn pale and then red, and finally he grabbed his hair and stormed off in a huff.

"I knew Lao Gao's gun design was impractical!" Pei Jinghong said excitedly. "With your words, my automatic aiming rifle won't be ranked last in the research institute anymore!"

"Your gun is pretty good; it even has an infrared instant aiming feature!"

Zhang Xuezhou did not use the ability to lock onto targets, which made his accuracy during the test shots laughable.

However, Zhang Xuezhou still had some confidence in the Infinite Gun. This type of weapon had a certain degree of stealth, and its ammunition capacity was indeed an advantage.

Having experienced long-term life in the wild in another world, Zhang Xuezhou truly felt that resupply was an important subject.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have pursued the Golden Crow Great Emperor's feathers, Grain Avoidance Powder, Grain Avoidance Technique, and other means to enhance his endurance in the wild.

As for using small stones for throwing, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he couldn't even achieve an effective attack within 30 meters, and that firearms would be more convenient for him in this regard.

His only problem right now is that he is unwell, and Zhang Xuezhou has no plans to survive in the wild for the time being.

Zhang Xuezhou then took the Infinite Gun and went to watch the show with Pei Jinghong's gun.

"Infrared pointing and shooting is quite accurate, but the current scope can't distinguish between humans and animals, and the aiming range is limited. Of course, there are also serious issues with the shooter's shooting adjustment and support!"

Pei Jinghong, however, was self-aware enough to reveal the flaws in the rifle he held.

Without the sight, his rifle is a conventional rifle, and all research efforts are focused on the sight.

"I heard you and Song Xianzong had a shooting contest. Is he really able to retaliate just by aiming at something?" Pei Jinghong asked.

"That's right," Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "He definitely has that skill. My aim was deflected, and if I hadn't been wearing a BB732 bulletproof vest beforehand, I would have been dead!"

"Then you're wearing the thickest armor!"

"That's right!"

"The existence of Gene Fighting Technique far surpasses that of ordinary people; controlling them is extremely difficult. What will become of this human world in the future..."

Pei Jinghong shook his head.

Current Gene Fighting Technique are on a fast track forward, with everyone aiming to push the limits of humanity and become extraordinary.

But no one considered how ordinary humans should deal with extraordinary humans.

The balance maintained by self-discipline and mutual restraint will eventually be broken. The current hierarchical balance is still manageable, but once one enters the Eighth Sequence or Ninth Sequence sequence, or even becomes a higher sequence holder, Pei Jinghong finds it hard to imagine such a situation.

They are creating a god out of thin air.

But once they opened Pandora's box of genes, the subsequent developments were no longer up to them.

If you don't study, others will; if you don't move forward, you'll suffer.

As they continue to push forward, Lineage that monopolize resources will rise to the top, until one day they can command the wind and rain, and even have the possibility of restoring a feudal dynasty.

"Time is always fair," Zhou Yueyan replied softly.

"What if someone solved the problem of time?" Pei Jinghong asked. "Can you imagine a powerful Sequence Master living forever, firmly controlling a nation, or even a civilization?"

"That's impossible!"

"Although I may not see that future, nothing is impossible in the future!"

Pei Jinghong was disheartened.

Clearly, conflicts of ideas still exist in the advancement of genetics.

Pei Jinghong is just one example.

"Humans had the same thoughts when they first encountered firearms!"

Only after Pei Jinghong walked out of the shooting range with a worried look on his face did Zhou Yueyan offer her rebuttal.

"The great era of genes is destined to be the collective evolution of all humanity, not just limited to certain Lineage or individuals," Zhou Yueyan said. "And no one can ignore the human race; Luo Zhong is a prime example!"

"Sister Zhou is right!"

Zhang Xuezhou clapped his hands, indicating that he agreed with Zhou Yueyan's idea.

"But Pei Jinghong is right about one thing," Zhou Yueyan said, "Nothing is impossible in the future. Maybe one day you will also be able to complete the 'Theoretical Development of Kunpeng Fighting Technique'!"

"Perhaps!" Zhang Xuezhou, shrugging.

"If you can truly reach the theoretical level, you might be able to recreate Luo Zhong's former glory of suppressing all sides!"

The theoretical development of Kunpeng Fighting Techniques faces numerous obstacles, not only for Zhang Xuezhou but also for others with similar genes.

This is a deduction of quantitative change leading to qualitative change, which is not only applicable to Kunpeng fighting techniques, but also has the same effect on other fighting techniques.

But if things really reached that point, Zhou Yueyan couldn't help but wonder if people at that stage would still be considered truly human.
