Chapter 327 Weapons
She was so excited chatting that she didn't even hear him come back so loudly.
"Perfect timing, you can join us for a chat too," Yufei patted the seat next to her, gesturing for him to sit down.
After Cui Yu'an sat down, Yu Fei asked with great interest.
"When I was doing my mecha test today, I heard that there's a 'Golden Beauties Ranking' in this world, which ranks all the most famous and capable girls in all the bases. I wonder if you guys have one?"
"Yes! I heard it's called the Hidden Dragon Ranking, I only heard about it from others." Cui Yu'an nodded. He had heard from his classmate that he had made it onto the Hidden Dragon Ranking, ranking 9th.
He remembered the list because his classmate looked so excited when he talked about it.
However, he didn't mention that he was on the list, feeling that saying he was on it would sound like boasting, and there was no need to say so.
"I'm curious to know who these amazing and decisive people are on these two lists."
There's someone in our grade who's currently ranked 8th on the Elite Ranking, and I heard their ranking will improve after passing the mecha test.
However, that girl didn't seem to like me much, and there was no need for me to try and win her over. It's just a pity that I can't get close to someone ranked so high on the list of beauties.
Yufei said with a hint of regret
He Junlin and Xie Yiren were also hearing about the Heavenly Pride Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking for the first time, and they were quite interested in these things that only appeared in novels.
However, upon hearing that there was someone on the Heavenly Prodigy Ranking at this base who wasn't very kind to Yufei, he also became indignant towards Yufei.
"She's definitely jealous of you. Don't be sad, my little Yufei."
After Xie Yiren finished speaking, she pressed herself against Yufei tightly.
"Hahaha~ Sister Yiren is itchy~ And how could I be? That person is a favored daughter of heaven, I only passed the mecha test, there's no need to be jealous."
Yufei is extremely ticklish, and Xie Yiren's rubbing against her face made her feel all itchy and numb, causing her to laugh uncontrollably.
She also responded to the suggestion that the girl might be jealous of her, saying, "How could that be? That girl seems much more outstanding than her on the surface; the possibility of her being jealous is very small."
After all, she hasn't even shown her full strength yet! If she can so keenly sense that she's a potential rival, it can only mean they admire each other.
At this moment, Yufei remembered their boys' "Hidden Dragon Ranking".
"By the way, Xiao Cui, you've been fighting in this mecha world for a year, and you've fought quite a few battles, big and small. I wonder if you've made a name for yourself on the 'Hidden Dragon Ranking' among the boys?"
Yufei asked in a cheeky manner
"Hmph~ Of course I am! Who am I? I'm an outstanding representative of our Blue Star, I have to be on the list! I'm ranked 9th, but I'll strive for first place!"
Seeing Yufei like that, Cui Yu'an was suddenly seized by a playful impulse and said mischievously.
"Wow, our Yu'an is amazing! He must be popular with a lot of girls. If he can even get a wife from another world, that would truly bring glory to our planet!"
"I wonder if any girls are interested in me. You know I'm not really into this kind of thing, and I'd never date someone from another world."
Cui Yu'an sounded a little unhappy here.
Yufei thought to herself, "Oh no! I got a little too excited. What did that liar just say?!" Yufei gave an awkward smile and looked around, trying to find other things to talk about.
"Okay, stop fooling around~ It's almost time for Sister Yiren's live stream~ Let's go watch the live stream, haha!" With that, Yufei ran off irresponsibly.
Cui Yu'an shook her head helplessly, calming her slightly angry mood. Forget it! That heartless girl! Getting angry over her will drive me crazy one day.
Cui Yu'an also decided to watch Xie Yiren's live stream.
Time flies; they spent a lot of time just on weapon ideas and paper designs.
The live stream is almost over, and Xie Yiren's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" series is nearing its end.
In a moment of joy, she told her audience several more stories today, making them so happy they practically cried out that it was a holiday.
This caused the big spenders who regularly watched her live streams to shower her with gifts.
The day's earnings alone could buy one-tenth of the mechs, and the day passed in such a pleasant atmosphere.
The rest of the group worked together to continuously improve their weapons, and Cui Yu'an, as someone with experience, offered many valuable suggestions.
For example, adding barbs and a health bar to the nine-section whip would increase its damage against Zerg.
For example, He Junlin's idea of a hammer combined with lightning is excellent, but it would be even better if the lightning could radiate outwards upon impact.
They spent a whole week refining their weapons before finally finalizing the design. Then, each of the three of them acquired a mech.
They then handed over their mechs to private mech manufacturers for modification.
Although He Junlin and Yu Fei's weapons were only considered standard weapons on Blue Star, they had undergone minor modifications and incorporated some advanced technology.
But these two weapon blueprints did cause quite a stir among the master craftsmen in the mecha workshop.
Especially Yufei's nine-section whip; the master who saw the blueprint was utterly astonished. This thing called the nine-section whip was something they had never seen before.
Whips are indeed very ancient weapons; there are even lightning whips used on the battlefield today.
However, this whip is far less agile than the nine-section whip. Ordinary whips are difficult to control accurately. Don't be fooled by the fact that whips are flexible weapons and seem simple to operate.
But actually, this weapon is the most difficult to use. If you don't apply the right amount of force, it becomes weak and ineffective, unable to cause any damage to the incredibly tough Zerg.
The nine-section whip is different; it divides the entire whip into nine sections, each with its own point of force application, allowing the whip to generate greater force.
Furthermore, it can change the attack range, making it more suitable for combat than a traditional whip.
The instructors, who frequently handle weapons, could immediately recognize its advantages, and they certainly wouldn't want to give up such a weapon.
"Young lady, can I buy the production rights to it? Don't worry, you name the price, I won't treat you unfairly."
In this world, weapons cannot be manufactured casually, especially weapons created by others, which are subject to copyright.
Manufacturing a weapon without the consent of the person who conceived it will result in severe punishment.
If the weapon's owner is pursued, they could face financial ruin at best, and imprisonment at worst.
Therefore, if the master wanted to make a nine-section whip, he had to obtain the authorization from Yufei.
Yufei thought about it for a moment and readily agreed. This weapon wasn't particularly difficult to make, and if it could increase damage against the Zerg, it would be a good thing for humanity's survival.
And you get paid for it, so why not? But you should still fight for what you deserve.
"Sure, but besides a base salary of 1 million, I also want commission. For every whip sold, I want a 1% commission."
This price isn't considered high for their private mecha workshop; after all, weapons are very expensive in this mecha world.
Needless to say, especially with specially customized weapons, aside from the expenses for Yufei, they can still make a hefty profit.
Therefore, they definitely had no objection to this at all, and were even particularly afraid that Yufei would suddenly change her mind.
The drafting and signing of the contract were completed in one smooth motion. After signing the authorization agreement with Yufei and He Junlin, the owner of this private mecha workshop carefully and discreetly put the contract away.
In a great mood, he waved his hand and gave He Junlin and Yufei a free meal.
