Chapter 259 Winter City Doesn’t Separate Houses
David tried a few more times. With the crosshair on the glasses to assist aiming, it became extremely easy to hit the target, even easier than when he was playing games back then.
"Would you like to try it?"
The women look at each other and eventually all test-fire a few shots.
Although this rifle is a bit heavy for them, it is not impossible to use. It is not a problem to feel it after firing a few rounds.
What surprised David was that Princess Sofia's physical fitness was actually stronger than that of Gwen and Helen who had cleared the dungeon. This delicate-looking girl used the rifle very easily and did not show the slightest effort.
When Pierre also raised his rifle to try it out, David turned his head and chatted with Tony.
"Is this rifle finalized?"
"Yes!" The piccolo assault rifle has been completely finalized. The one in front of David is the official product, and it will be officially produced based on this design: "What? What do you think?"
"No! This gun is already very strong...the power is beyond my expectation." He originally thought that Tony could make a rifle that was slightly more powerful than the dwarf version of the Garand used before, which was already very good, no Thinking of directly tinkering with such a big killer: "This rifle should be used for a long time."
"After all, the forces you have to face are very complicated. Of course, the weapons and equipment should be made as strong as possible." Tony didn't think it was strange. After all, David's current goal was not simply the Brennia continent. These forces are gone.
Moreover, considering that there are gods behind these forces, no one knows what kind of power those guys hold in their hands.
"Will it be troublesome to make this weapon?" Can't the manufacturing speed of such a powerful weapon be increased?
But Tony didn't think it was a problem at all, and after a few words, David realized that he was thinking too much.
How many soldiers are there in Winter City?
There are only fifty members of the Winter Knights, and even if you add all the recruits from the Spartan Heavy Infantry, they are only in the early thousand.
Below Tony’s Stark Manor is a fully automated production workshop. As long as the raw materials are sufficient, it takes a short while to assemble an Iron Soldier, and the complexity of this rifle is not higher than that of Iron Soldier.
In other words, as far as the current situation is concerned, the supply speed of raw materials is what limits the output of this new weapon, but the core material of this gun is crystal ore. After several upgrades, the output of crystal ore is no longer a problem. problem of urban development.
"So... production speed and output are not a problem at all. As long as it takes a short time, I can make all the soldiers in Winter City switch to this new rifle."
Not only the current Winter Knights and Spartan heavy infantry, but even newly recruited recruits can receive new guns in advance and learn how to use new weapons as soon as possible.
"Speaking of this matter, are the Spartan heavy infantry also going to start wearing blizzard power armor?"
"There is no rush for now, their physical fitness still needs to continue to improve."
Sparta has been accepted for a long time in the first phase. In terms of quality, although they are still weaker than those of the Winter Knights, they barely meet the standard for using power armor.
In other words, some of the elite Spartan heavy infantry can indeed begin to learn how to use power armor.
The time for training in the second and third phases is not long enough, they still need to be trained for a while.
"But the power armor still has to be prepared in advance, right?"
"indeed."
"Have you considered building a dedicated arsenal?"
With the expansion of all aspects of Winter City, the increase in the number of troops also means that the demand for various weapons and ammunition is constantly increasing.
Tony knew that his automated workshop would not be able to supply Winter City's weapons forever, so he reminded David that he wanted David to prepare in advance.
"Of course I have thought about it." In fact, David has not only thought about it, but even has a rough plan.
At the beginning, he will build an ammunition factory, so that Tony does not need to grab power armor, weapons, and ammunition all at once. Although the automated factory in Stark Manor is very efficient, as the types and quantity of weapons increase, sooner or later there will be supply Not on the situation.
Rather than waiting until something goes wrong and then scrambling for a solution, make arrangements early on.
"First the ammunition factory, followed by the gun factory and power armor. As for what factories will be built in the future, it depends on the specific needs." He didn't build the ammunition factory right away, but was waiting for Tony's new gun.
According to Tony's previous statement, the ammunition used in the new rifle is completely different from the one used before, so he can't build it in advance.
"Just make arrangements."
According to David’s plan, the new ammunition factory mainly produces new rifle bullets and various functional missiles used on power armor, and also retains a small part of the production line to produce pistol bullets that are currently common in Winter City.
The piano pistol is still the main standard pistol used in Winter City. Except for a small amount of use by the military, the main user is the security team in charge of Elizabeth Swan.
Tony did not manufacture a pistol using new ammunition, so traditional ammunition using gunpowder still has to be produced in small batches.
As for traditional rifle cartridges, there should be no need to manufacture them. The current inventory is sufficient to cope with the daily training of the army and possible emergencies. After all the ammunition is used up, most of the dwarf-made Garand rifles in Winter City can be disposed of. As for whether to sell them to the Kingdom of Lordaeron at a discount or to the Kingdom of Stormwind, this can be discussed.
Coming out of Stark Manor, David just chatted casually with Tony for a short while, and almost made a plan for the future military development of Winter City.
It seems a bit of a joke, but this is the power of the lord.
As long as the territory develops well, no one will question David's way of doing things. What's more, under the leadership of David, Winter City is developing better and better at a speed visible to the naked eye. In this case, no one will I feel that David's approach is inappropriate.
After returning to Glamorgan Castle, David originally wanted to take Sophia around the 'new home' in person to make her more familiar with it.
But as soon as he came back, he was reminded by Eva: that Mr. Ethan Hunter was waiting for him.
"He is back?"
"Yes."
"Have you introduced some basic information to him?"
"Already introduced."
David nodded, and then went directly to the reception room. Ethan was sitting there looking around curiously. He had already drank most of the coffee in front of him. It seemed that he had let go of most of his guard.
Seeing this situation, David knew that Ethan had believed what he said earlier.
"It seems that you have understood the whole situation."
Ethan stood up when David came in, and after a brief greeting with David, he sat down again. After hearing what the other party said, there was still a bit of disbelief on his face and words: "I still feel that this kind of It's unbelievable that I've come across something that only exists in science fiction."
“Things in science fiction stories may not necessarily never happen. Many things or objects described in science fiction stories have become reality not long after.”
After the two had a brief chat, Ethan obviously relaxed a lot.
Regarding the miraculous event he encountered, Ethan didn't believe it at all from the beginning: How could such an outrageous thing happen? Walking to another world? Hehe, I don't believe it!
Even if David told him that he could try it himself, he still didn't believe it, and thought that these were all pranks from his colleagues.
It wasn't until he tried several times by himself that he was sure that he seemed, probably, possibly... really time-traveled.
After returning to Cold Winter City again, he didn't see that David, but a woman named Eva.
He felt the atmosphere of a soldier from this woman, and with the introduction of the other party, Ethan realized how magical this place called Winter City is.
It turns out that there are many people like him from other worlds in this city, including Eva who is popularizing the basics of science for herself.
And everyone from different worlds likes this place very much, and they have more or less contributed to the development and construction of Winter City.
It's hard to believe that this place was a wasteland two years ago, with only a few wooden houses in existence.
Now, a city with complete infrastructure has appeared.
When he heard this, Ethan felt that it was outrageous, but after learning that people like him who came here from other worlds also included Spider-Man, Captain America, Transformers, etc., he felt that what he heard before Those who arrived were nothing at all, this is outrageous!
After Eva finished introducing the general situation, Ethan expressed that he wanted to meet David.
At this time, he already knew David's identity: the lord of this city and the northern plain of the Kingdom of Tilan, David-Earl of Glamorgan!
After chatting for a while, Ethan asked a lot about Winter City and learned a little more about this magical city.
At the same time, he also knows that David welcomes people like him. If he wants, he can choose to settle in Winter City, or he can choose to build a vacation house of his own here.
"So, what do I need to pay?"
It is definitely impossible for him to spend money to buy land and houses. He has no money in this world at all. He thinks that since David has welcomed him, it should be useful to get him, right?
"Pay it!"
David didn't say 'see what you have? ’, Ethan Hunt’s situation made him unable to think of what this elite agent could help, so let’s just carry out ordinary transactions!
"If you don't have money, you can find some jobs in Winter City...Of course, you can also buy some special products and sell them in Winter City."
David suddenly felt that maybe future visitors from other worlds could be arranged in this way?
