It was from that day that many of the villagers went to the village chief to plead, hoping that their children could study under Little Chen.
Alfonso had also adjusted the center of gravity of the gun to make it more energy efficient.
The weapon that Chen Mu had made had shaken the whole village.
Everyone knew that Mr. Chen had made a weapon with unprecedented power.
If it weren't for the state of emergency, Chen Mu's lab would have been surrounded by countless villagers.
But, as famous as the weapon's terrifying power was its ugliness.
Every villager who had seen Chen Mu test the weapon with their own eyes had exaggerated it to the extreme, which could be summed up in one sentence: it was really too ugly!
Everyone realized that danger was getting closer and closer.
Even Bo Wen, who had been disapproving of the gummy cloud layer, didn't say anything.
Chen Mu was making cards every day, and his level of card making was far beyond what it had been.
On top of that, he had the "weak water" pen set, which was like adding wings to a tiger.
And he had given the preparation of the card ink to the students.
Although they weren't very old, they were meticulous in their work.
And, Chen Mu had discovered that as long as he gave instructions, they would remember everything he said, and he didn't need to worry at all.
What a good kid!
Chen Mu was sighing with the attitude of an old man.
Alfonso had also made a new optimization of the small cluster cannon, reducing its weight by nearly a third.
Alfonso prostrated himself in admiration of Chen Mu.
Teacher Little Chen was able to design two powerful weapons with just a few simple moves.
To be able to design two completely new weapons in two or three days was a speed they had never heard of.
Alfonso was very clear about the difficulty of designing new weapons, and as he saw it, Little Chen was as calm and relaxed as raising his hand!
"How many of these weapons can we have?" Conrad asked coldly, asking the question that everyone was concerned about.
None of the students in the laboratory had any doubts about Teacher Little Chen's strength.
Little Chen was more awesome than the most awesome card master in the village up to that point, and his skill was something they could only look up to, and it filled them with awe!
The most inconceivable thing was that Little Chen wasn't much older than they were, and everyone, including the villagers, firmly believed that Little Chen had an incomparably glorious future.
Apart from the Blue Moon gun, Chen Mu had also designed a small cluster cannon, which was an improvement on the cluster cannon that Alfonso had made.
It only needed an adult man to carry it, and its mobility was greatly improved.
Its damage output was around 500, and it was an AoE attack.
However, it also consumed a lot of energy, and it consumed a lot more energy than the Blue Moon Spear.
The only thing that made Chen Mu feel that the Blue Moon Spear wasn't completely useless was that ordinary people could use it.
If the firepower was low, then so be it. If the firing rate was slow, then so be it. Even a hero couldn't hold up against so many people. If everyone was equipped with one, then they would be able to form a certain amount of combat strength.
Anyway, they weren't going to challenge professional card artisans.
That greatly increased Chen Mu's efficiency, and the difficulty of those incomplete three-star cards was a lot less than that of the ordinary three-star wavy blade cards.
For Chen Mu, it was a very simple matter.
In a day, he could create forty Blue Moon Gun Core Cards and two Small Cluster Cannon Core Cards.
He did not need to worry about the other parts at all. Alfonso was impeccable in this aspect.
In order to increase production, the chief added a group of villagers who were more meticulous in their work.
There was a small Moonstone mine near the village, and it was the only energy mine in the area.
The main material of the Blue Moon Spear's energy box was the Moonstone.
The Blue Moon Spear's energy utilization rate was very low. If it weren't for a critical situation, Chen Mu would never have made such a weapon that was so low in value to performance ratio.
Card artisans generally used more than eighty percent of their energy.
The Blue Moon Spear only used forty percent.
Chen Mu didn't stop there. In those few days of free time, he was working as hard as he could to make three-star power cards!
For card artisans, power cards were equivalent to their food and ammunition, and he needed to make his final preparations.
But, Chen Mu could only compromise.
One-star power cards contained too little energy, and they couldn't be used in battle.
Apart from himself, there was no one else there who could make two-star and three-star power cards.
Chen Mu had no choice but to use the energy box technology.
That energy box technology was still the village's technology, and Chen Mu was just using it.
In twenty days of work, he had produced eight hundred Blue Moon Guns and forty Small Cluster Cannons.
Every weapon that was produced would be immediately sent to the hands of the warriors in the village, who needed to get used to the new weapon as quickly as possible.
"What do you think of this weapon?" the chief asked elder Bafu, his tone showing an unprecedented importance.
In front of them was a brand-new Blue Moon Gun.
The design was simple and smooth, and the weapon was new and unique, which attracted everyone's attention.
They had long heard rumors about the weapon, but it was the first time they had seen the finished product.
It was really too ugly!
Having seen its power, Alfonso couldn't tolerate such a powerful weapon being so ugly.
In some sense, Alfonso was a good comrade with a good sense of aesthetics.
From Chen Mu, he had a detailed understanding of the function of each component, and he had quickly mastered all of the weapon's structure, except for that little card.
Just the day before, a mass of gummy cloud with a diameter of about ten meters had suddenly dropped from the sky, which had scared everyone.
The pace of work was immediately accelerated, and the chief ordered that the first team would set out in five days.
Everyone had packed their luggage, and the busiest people were the villagers who were collecting supplies, making their final sprint.
All of the students, including Alfonso, had resolved that if Professor Chen ever came up with any new work, they would never take it out of the lab without improving it!
That had nothing to do with secrecy, and they firmly believed it would make them lose all face.
"Production is limited."
The chief was rubbing his brow with a headache. "The other components are easy to handle, but only Mr. Chen can make the core component, that magical card."
Because of Chen Mu's age, everyone was used to adding the word "little" in front of his name when they called him.
The wavy blades launched by the Blue Moon Gun had a damage value of about two hundred, which could only be considered passable as far as he was concerned.
The terrifying shooting speed in the eyes of the villagers wasn't even worth mentioning in Chen Mu's eyes.
Any random professional card artisan would be able to release wavy blades at a much faster rate.
There was no need to doubt Professor Chen's power and knowledge.
What was just as famous as Professor Chen's power was his ignorance when it came to aesthetics, as well as his clumsiness when it came to craftsmanship.
The original form of that terrifyingly powerful weapon was shockingly ugly, and it had long since become the stuff of jokes among the villagers.
The body of the Blue Moon Gun wasn't blue, but pure black.
According to what Alfonso had said, he had used some kind of some kind of alloy. Chen Mu couldn't remember that long string of names even after three tries.
The body of the gun used a frosted technique, which gave it a nice texture to the touch. What Chen Mu appreciated the most was that it didn't reflect light at night.
Elder Bafu was an authority in that regard, and after playing with it for a while, he quickly grasped how to use the Blue Moon Gun.
What Chen Mu appreciated most about the improved version of the Blue Moon Gun was its weight.
Compared with the prototype he had made, which could only be called a model, the weight of the new Blue Moon Gun was only half that of the former.
By that time, it had already been almost a month since the strange state of the gummy cloud layer had been discovered.
The gummy cloud layer.
