The weapon Feng Yi observed was the epitome of cool, a rifle so silver and sleek that it was almost metallic, with detailed descriptions of its characteristics and parameters. Unlike a conventional sniper rifle, its ability to transform was its distinct feature, maximizing the portability and saving space to carry it. By simply pressing a tiny button in front of the trigger guard, it would perform its miraculous transformation, with the gun barrel and stock shrinking into the body of the gun.
This anti-material weapon could carry 30mm armor-piercing bullets and was primarily used to inflict lethal damage on mobile soldiers. It was regrettable that such a weapon could only appear in Black science base, incapable of being genuinely used on the battlefield. Its structure was too intricate, adding weight to the gun, significantly impairing a soldier's mobility. Using a Recoil Reducer couldn't fully counteract the recoil either.
In other words, excluding the first-shot hit rate, maintaining successive shooting accuracy was nearly impossible - at least not for an ordinary person, unless you were a weapons expert with a profound understanding of firearms, known in the military as the "King of Soldiers".
The problem lies in managing the recoil. Finding a 'King of Soldiers' is not easy. These critical assets are often on the front lines. Even in military regional command, the numbers of such high-caliber soldiers are extremely limited. General Karl Haf at the Roland Frontline and Major Huang Zhennan are good examples, with Feng Yi being the only one to rival them in terms of firearms prowess.
However, even Feng Yi wouldn't dare to assert superiority over the pair. They were indeed perfect shooters. So when comparing factors such as drawing speed, reloading, and timing, Feng Yi stands at an advantage.
Feng Yi observed for nearly two hours, and apart from the four pieces of equipment, he was not particularly interested in the other treasures.
By this point, it was getting dark in Eden. Dr. Trister and Eggy were still busily engrossed in their work... From the villa, the sound of an old and a young voice could frequently be heard, usually when the puzzles that took Dr. Trister several minutes to days to solve were tackled by Eggy in a breath's time. The old man couldn't appreciate Eggy more.
Eggy, who had been treated like a big brother for the entire day, was only too happy to indulge in Dr. Trister's orders. The latter was at his beck and call, treating him like royalty.
"Doctor, can I please try out that necklace?"
"Go ahead, go ahead, don't bother me. I'm super busy..." Wait, what? A Necklace?
Once Dr. Trister realized that Feng Yi had disappeared, he instantly regretted his decision. That necklace was made using the most advanced bioelectric wave magnetic field identification system in the world. Once it came into contact with the skin and resonated with Feng Yi's magnetic field, it had essentially recognized him as its owner. This was akin to forming a blood bond.
Unless the microchip memory was formatted. Formatting, however, meant re-entering all various program codes along with lots of other miscellaneous things. It was not as simple as copying data. The bioelectric wave memory exhibited highly intelligent characteristics. It would be quicker to spend a few months crafting a new piece than attempting to format it. The suit was intended to be brought onto the world stage to challenge those old ghosts.
Dr. Trister rushed into the second floor of the villa. But it was too late. By the time he reached, a virtual projection had already sprung up before Feng Yi, displaying the details of his size, bone frame, appearance, and other collected values. Then, the necklace hanging around his neck started to slowly creep down his chest towards his body, covering him completely.
Seconds later, Feng Yi looked as if he was wrapped up like a dumpling. Of course, that's an exaggeration. However, Feng Yi's typically tight clothes now had an extra layer that added a touch of bizarreness to his appearance.
By this time, Dr. Trister was in tears. Upon seeing this scene, he sighed heavily and repeatedly muttered "fate, fate…".
"What are you standing there for? Take off your clothes immediately!"
"Take off?"
Dr. Trister explained the combat suit's functionalities in detail to Feng Yi. In essence, he said that once you're wearing this, you wouldn't need any other clothes except for underwear. Actually, when designing the suit, he considered integrating underwear functionality as well. However, for various reasons, he didn't go that far. He purposely set the default outer appearance of the combat suit to sleek black for the sake of aesthetics.
Feng Yi looked at himself in the mirror and found that he looked pretty cool. However, he wondered, why was he wearing a mask?
Dr. Trister's explanation was simple, "The suit changes shape freely according to the consciousness of your magnetic field." In other words, when Feng Yi first put on the combat suit, his mind imagined a design that included a face mask. As Feng Yi's thoughts shifted, the mask retracted back into the necklace.
Feng Yi couldn't understand why a small necklace could transform into a body-hugging combat suit.
Hearing Feng Yi's question, Dr. Trister, who didn't want to elaborate any further, said that the necklace was a mixture of ultra-metal and micrometre fiber.
In fact, the density of this necklace was incredibly high. Still, because ultra-metal is inherently light, it felt no different from regular metal accessories. It's important to note that although ultra-metal isn't hard, when viewed under a super-microscopic display, one would find it constituted thousands of layers. This represented the transformative result of quantitative change to qualitative change.
"You can keep the suit. As a trade-off, you'll have to leave Eggy with me."
How could Feng Yi possibly agree to Dr. Trister's request? Eggy was simply too valuable. After all, it was the only fortune Lasso had left him, not to mention his sole companion and friend. Although the two often quarreled in their day-to-day life, it's said, disagreements breed creativity. To Feng Yi, Eggy's importance surpassed anyone else, and the same goes for Eggy's perception of Feng Yi.
