100 A Sword Can Kill, but It Can Also Save Lives
“For you guys, there’s no difference between having you research anti-gravity devices and fighter jets.”
Braydon Neal’s words really hurt those present.
Gunter Bell and the rest were all speechless!
Braydon drew all the drawings and handed them to Colin Spades to make immediately. He did not want to delay the research lab’s experimental progress.
As for the parts of the anti-gravity device, Braydon had to upgrade them. The core component, the ion ring, required a high level of manufacturing technology, so Gunter was the only one who could do it.
After finishing all the drawings, the sky was bright, and the eastern sky was slightly white.
Braydon quietly went to the roof and closed his eyes to cultivate the Art of the God of War. After the poisoning of the Black Sword Association yesterday, he had reached the third revolution of the art, and his speed of condensing purple Qi had doubled again!
A wisp of purple Qi surrounded Braydon and was inhaled into his nose, relieving him of his fatigue.
As the sky brightened, the number of students on the campus gradually increased as they headed to the school library.
In the research room, Gunter and the others did not rest. Everyone had things to do. The anti-gravity device and fighter jet blueprints were all there. They only needed to build according to the standard.
A real anti-gravity device needed to be made into a qualified finished product. The quality of the experimental product could be reduced, and it was fine to use it once.
As long as the core technology was verified, the rest would be easy!
As time passed, it was noon.
All the students of Preston University were shocked. Behind the research building, two fighter jets landed in the ten-acre experimental area.
The surface of the fighter jets was made of metal. It seemed that the construction time was very short as it was missing a coat of paint.
Gunter was in a hurry. This was his job, and he had to get it out as soon as possible. For this reason, the factory at the Starbright Manufacturing company had been urgently building and assembling two fighter jets the entire night.
This was the foundation of an established aviation manufacturing company. They had over ten thousand employees, several factories, independent R&D departments, and mature production lines.
On the other hand, Yonah Zill was also anxious to verify the core technology, which was the carrying capacity of the anti-gravity device.
The research team led by Yonah had already reached 100 people.
Everyone had dark circles under their eyes, and no one was resting. In the research area behind the scientific research building, a flat silver metal product appeared.
The exterior had built-in combinations, so once it was locked, it was impossible to dismantle.
This was the second-generation anti-gravity device!
After Braydon’s hand-drawn drawing last night, the flat-shaped anti-gravity device had a diameter of five meters.
The entire machine did not make any noise. A ring of dust suddenly rose up under the tripod supporting the machine, as if it was being pressed by an invisible force.
Gunter was overjoyed.
The second-generation anti-gravity device could float six meters in the air and float quietly on the ground without moving at all. Its performance was quite reliable.
There were professionals recording all sorts of data.
Yonah suppressed his excitement and shouted, “Colin, arrange for someone to carry the weight. Chief Engineer Neal said the ideal weight is ten tons. We’ll test it out today!”
“Alright!” Colin personally made the second-generation anti-gravity device land. He used the hang crane at the side to hook up a piece of iron plate and placed it firmly on the second-generation anti-gravity device.
An iron plate as thick as three centimeters that weighed a ton did not have any effect on the second-generation anti-gravity device.
Immediately after, the second iron plate was placed on top, and it was still fine.
Then, the third iron plate, the fourth… He placed the tenth iron plate on the table.
A noise came from the inside of the second-generation anti-gravity device, as if the power had increased and the bearing capacity had reached its limit.
“Start the floating device,” Yonah said. “Gradually strengthen it. Let’s see the maximum altitude and for how long it can withstand it!”
“Understood!” There was a young man at the side who was assisting him as he pressed the buttons in front of the computer.
The second-generation anti-gravity device continued to rise into the air under full load. The invisible waves increased, making Yonah and the others dizzy, as if they were being disturbed by magnetic forces.
Anti-gravity mechanics were inseparable from magnetic mechanics, and the two were mutually contradictory.
Gunter and the rest felt their chests tighten, and their vision went black. They almost fainted on the ground.
This was the result of activating the anti-gravity device.
“Lex,” Yonah instructed, “record it down. The anti-gravity device can be activated at full power. It can interfere with signals and cut off electricity. It can cause harm to the human body.”
“Professor Zill, I’ve noted it down!” Lex, who was beside him, noted them down one by one.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the second-generation anti-gravity device in the sky. As the distance increased, the anti-gravity device in everyone’s eyes had become the size of a basin.
In the end, they only saw a black dot the size of an egg.
This height was definitely over a hundred meters!
Lex stared at the computer and looked at the data. “Professor Zill, the floating altitude has reached 300 meters!”
“What?”
When Gunter arrived at the scene and heard this, his expression changed drastically. He roared in anger, “Nonsense! All personnel, evacuate immediately and leave this area!”
“Why?” Lex looked up and pushed up his glasses, very puzzled.
Gunter’s face was filled with anger. “The second-generation anti-gravity device’s parts were not strictly built according to the quality of the finished parts. It was only built to verify the core technology!
“You have placed ten iron plates and transported them at full load. Floating them 300 meters above your head means that they are ten huge blades in the sky. Once the second-generation anti-gravity device has a problem, these iron plates will fall. Do you think any of you will survive?”
Gunter was practically shouting.
This shocked everyone.
When they came back to their senses, everyone was extremely afraid.
Yonah said guiltily, “It’s my fault. I forgot that all experiments should be carried out under the premise of safety. The second-generation anti-gravity device is running at full load and can’t hold on for too long. Everyone, leave this place quickly. Lex, bring the device down!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lex controlled the computer and used the smart control system to reduce the power of the second-generation anti-gravity machine bit by bit.
In the end, it was this fluctuation that caused the second-generation anti-gravity device’s component to be damaged under full load.
The entire precision instrument instantly lost control, and the ten iron plates tilted and fell.
Lex looked at the computer screen. It was a miniature version of the second-generation anti-gravity device. A red dot had appeared on the surface of the device, and it was tilting.
“This is bad!” His expression changed drastically.
However, there was no need for him to say anything. Everyone looked up at the sky, and their expressions changed drastically. They saw ten black iron plates falling from the sky like huge blades. If they landed on a person, they would die without a doubt!
At a height of 300 meters, the iron plates weighed a ton each. If it fell one someone, that person would become a pile of meat.
“Run! Don’t just stand there!” Gunter’s eyes were bloodshot as he roared.
But it was too late!
The speed at which the iron plates were falling was impossible for them to escape from the area it covered.
The hundreds of researchers’ expressions changed.
While everyone was in despair, a young man in white jumped down from the scientific research building. He was wearing a golden Qilin robe. He touched his waist with his left hand and pulled out a black sword.
The sword of the Northern King was unsheathed!
