Chapter 9: In Search of Money!
1154 Words
Ten Days has passes... It's half the time that I need to go back to Engineas... I'm still on top of the sea, flying quite slowly... I've been using my time very effective... I've been training using the Dojo equipment and also information that the Screen has given me...
I do power training, agility training and also endurance training... There's a lot of thing that I've done the past ten days...
I've been studying the Rhea Weapon Catalogue in my Room... It seems like Rhea Kingdom and my brain has some sort of connection... Because there's something that I want to made, that actually been catalogued into the Weapon book...
The Railgun. Something that has been inside my mind for a long time... A weapon that uses the Combustion of Explosive Powder... That launches a Metal Rod that can move exceeding the speed of sound... Depending on the Rod...
Of course, Normal Railgun in the Catalogue only uses normal metal rod. Because their knowledge and creativity limits them...
I've made the ammo already... Remember the Rod of Lyssa? It's a good thing that comes out from a failed project of Railgun Ammo...
My Railgun Ammo, Is much Slicker. The Combustion that is going to happen on my Railgun is going to be even stronger. Because it's more compact, but less in quantity...
That's going to make Railgun much more useable due to the easier reload...
The Ammo is also easy to make now that I understand how it works...
The tip of my Railgun ammo is easily detachable. So I can make it with other thing as well... Explosive Powder, Poison, Paralysis Effect, and of course... A plain Sharp Steel if I don't want to use any of that special effect...
"Hmm... But I do wonder if I can make it stronger again..."
As usual, I make my weapon with the principle of Combos. Since Railgun is useful against big opponent, I can also make a normal small bullet.
Apparently, it's called a Railgun Sniper in the catalogue of Rhea Weaponry... It seems like they use those two things as two different weapon... While for me, I want to make it as one weapon...
Anyway... As I'm looking at the Rhea Weapon Catalogue... I hear Chreation send a warning.
'Captain. Warning ahead. A Sea Dragon has been detected by the radar... It seems like the Sea Dragon is planning to attack a nearby island that is reachable within three hours....'
Hm? Sea Dragon you say?
My Eyes shines with Money! I smell money! I need Money! For this project, it will needs a lot of mineral for me to process! So I need a lot of money to buy the Mineral!!!
"Really? Okay then."
Now. This past ten days, I also been learning a lot about Rhea Absolut... I go out of my room and then head straight to the Lift...
"Take me to the Captain's Deck."
'Understood.'
The Lift falls down to the First Floor. The very top of the first floor... And then, the Lift was ejected forward toward the Captain's Deck... A Secret room underneath the floors that can bring you anywhere in the ship... Except the first floor... Since it's dangerous to put any secret space underneath the floor. Because it can mess up the Storage system and the Engine...
The Lift bring me straight into the Captain's Deck and then it comes out of the middle of the room... The door opens and then I come out... The lift disappears behind me and then I sit down on my Chair...
I look at the Radar and the Map simultaneously... What Chreation detects are true... An ADULT water dragon is worth gold medals... A lot as well... As long as it's still intact... It's going to go in the market at a high price... Also, Auction can also be held for this thing... And I will get more money!!!
Well then... Let's devise some hideous plan then...
This Sea Dragon is going to attack an island three hours from us... It's filled with local tribe that will be destroyed if this Water Dragon reach them...
Now, I can't risk losing my Rod of Lyssa... But I can use some of the Railgun Ammo... Since It's easy to make...
It's strange huh... The fact that Rod of Lyssa is just an after product, is actually more complex than the Railgun Ammo itself.
I push a button on the side and then take control of the First Harpoon Gun... I control it through the deck and then aim it straight at the Sea Dragon Head... I know that this will hit the body... I can't risk alarming the Sea Dragon by trying to hit it straight on the head.
It might kill him in one hit... But I doubt that it's possible though. It is an Adult...
Anyway... I aimed the first harpoon gun there... And now, come the second Harpoon gun...
I aim it a bit forward from his head... With me controlling two controller at the same time... It shows Chreation that the Captain is controlling the battle perfectly...
I shoot the first Harpoon gun... It hits the body as expected...
*HHYYAAAAAAGHHH!!!*
The Mighty Sea Dragon Roar in pain as his body was stabbed by a Harpoon gun. Latched onto his flesh, and pulling on the inside of his scales...
And now, its movement was hindered in an instant... I press the Second Harpoon Gun without any hesitation and then it just shoot another Harpoon straight to the head... It only graze the head...
As expected, the Crown of a Dragon is hard... If that's the case...
I pull the Second Harpoon back to its shooter... And then the Sea Dragon try to break free from the harpoon. It still doesn't know what attacks him. And even if he try to attack us, We're still in the Cloaked Mode... So anything it throw at us is going to phase through...
Now... I need to do this fast!
I aimed the second Harpoon back at the back of the Sea Dragon and without hesitation, launch it... And it do the same thing as the first harpoon. It pierces through and then latched on to the scales...
I go straight to the Third Harpoon launcher and then open the back of it... I pull the Chain as hard as I could and then pull the Harpoon out... I quickly take a new ammo that I made for the railgun... It's the detachable Explosive Chamber...
I quickly tied the Chamber on the edge of the Harpoon... I calculate the impact that it needs to take to explode...
With the speed of the harpoon... It should be enough to shatter the crown with the Explosive Chamber... And then, the Harpoon can follow up the rest. It will digs straight into the Sea Dragon defenseless head and kill it...
That's... A Nice strategy ain't it?
