Chapter 238

Su Hao came to the planting area, handed the Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit seeds to Hua Yao, and briefly explained their effects.

What?! Fourth Tier?! Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier?!!

After hearing Su Hao's description, Hua Yao felt as if struck by lightning, standing frozen in place, her face showing an expression of disbelief.

Sister Hua Yao, what's wrong with you?

Upon hearing Hua Yao's exclamation, the nearby flower spirits all came running, staring at her with curiosity.

Hua Yao then snapped out of her shock, took a deep breath, calmed her excitement, and explained to the flower spirits.

These are Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit seeds; Master said the Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit is a Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier plant that can significantly enhance our physique and mental power, up to Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier, and also strengthen fire element resistance and affinity.

What? A Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier supernatural plant can even raise an ordinary person's physique and mental power up to Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier? Sister Hua Yao, you're not joking, are you?

Upon hearing Hua Yao's brief description, the other flower spirits' first reaction was disbelief.

You know, in today's world, even Supernatural Grade Second Tier items are extremely rare, let alone a Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier fruit—it's simply beyond imagination.

Furthermore, according to Hua Yao, the Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit can also enhance an ordinary person's physique and mental power, up to Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier?

This is too fake, right?

But the flower spirits all know this is no lie, because Su Hao told Hua Yao! In their shock, the flower spirits' reverence for Su Hao grew stronger.

They deeply understood that Su Hao's strength was like an iceberg at sea; what they saw was merely the tip above the water.

"Just how strong is Master Su Hao? He can even get his hands on a Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit."

"Sigh, if we could mass-produce Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit, then someday our physique and mental power could also reach Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier..."

Hua Yao looked at the seeds in her hand, couldn't help but sigh, but as a Supernatural Grade Fourth Tier item, she couldn't be sure whether just planting it would succeed.

Su Hao heard Hua Yao's sigh and smiled slightly, saying:

"According to the appraisal results, these seeds can indeed grow Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit; this task is entrusted to you to handle, and I think there's no one more suitable than you."

"Master, please rest assured, we will definitely not disappoint you!"

Since he paused, he then detailed the usage method of the Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit: "When consuming, cut open the dragon fruit and directly eat its fresh flesh. However, one must remember: without a Supernatural Grade Second Tier physique, one must not casually consume it. Otherwise, the powerful energy could cause irreversible harm to the body."

Su Hao's words made Hua Yao and the others feel the weight of responsibility, while also filling them with anticipation for planting the Blazing Flame Dragon Fruit. They knew this was a task full of both challenges and opportunities.

Hua Yao, as the representative, solemnly accepted the task; the other flower spirits also expressed their determination and confidence, believing that under Su Hao's guidance, this task would surely be completed successfully.

……

Half a day later.

Ling'er came before Su Hao holding two silver‑shining weapons.

First is the Energy Gatling; its appearance features a streamlined design, the gun body made of a silver alloy, presenting a holy silver‑white color.

The barrel is engraved with intricate runes that flicker with a faint light, appearing mysterious and powerful.

Six barrels are tightly arranged like six giant dragons, ready to unleash devastating firepower; the whole Energy Gatling resembles a exquisite artwork, highly technological while exuding a strong supernatural aura.

【Energy Gatling (Silver)】

Supernatural Grade: Third Tier

Effect 1 – Penetrating Shot: As a top‑tier energy weapon, the Energy Gatling can fire energy bullets with strong penetrating power by highly compressing energy.

These specially made energy bullets can easily pierce conventional armor and even destroy some magical barriers.

Effect 2 – Rapid Fire: When consuming a massive amount of energy, the Gatling can enter rapid‑fire mode, reaching extreme shooting speed to form a dense barrage that delivers devastating continuous strikes against enemies.

However, this mode consumes enormous energy, and after use requires a long cooldown and energy recharge, during which the weapon cannot be used.

Effect 3 – Energy Shock: Each shot has a certain chance to trigger an energy shock, causing the hit target to suffer continuous energy impacts for a short time, reducing its defense.

……

"Supernatural Grade Third Tier? These effects look pretty good!"

Su Hao nodded in satisfaction, especially pleased with the rapid‑fire effect.

Although using this effect consumes a large amount of energy, and furthermore, short‑term one cannot continue using the Energy Gatling.

However, according to the appraisal results, once this ability is used it can inflict devastating damage on the enemy; perhaps after a single round of shooting the battle would already be over.

Since the battle would already be over, the problem of being unusable for a short time is utterly irrelevant.

Afterward, Su Hao turned his gaze to another weapon.

That was the Energy Rocket Launcher; its appearance is even more formidable, the barrel thick and sturdy, assembled from multiple sections of silver alloy, each section engraved with complex magical arrays, as if containing endless power.

At the muzzle, a faint blue halo slowly rotates, signifying energy gathering and foreshadowing the imminent formidable power.

The whole rocket launcher resembles an awakened giant beast, inspiring awe.

【Energy Rocket Launcher (Silver)】

Supernatural Grade: Third Tier

Effect 1 – Explosive Rocket: The energy rockets fired by this launcher produce a violent explosion upon hitting a target or reaching maximum range, with power sufficient to destroy all obstacles in an area.

The blast's shockwave and shrapnel can inflict massive damage on enemies in a wide surrounding area.

Effect 2 – Cluster Bombing: When consuming a massive amount of energy, the launcher can fire multiple explosive rockets at once to carpet‑bomb a designated area.

This attack method can almost destroy any defensive fortifications and inflict devastating damage on enemies in the area, but after use it requires a long cooldown and energy recharge.

Effect 3 – Chain Explosion: After a rocket explodes, there is a certain chance to trigger a chain explosion, detonating surrounding objects and thereby further increasing the strike range and power.

……

Like the Energy Gatling, the Energy Rocket Launcher also has a 'full‑power' skill that consumes a large amount of energy to conduct continuous bombardment of an area.

However, these are merely what the appraisal results show; the actual effects must be tested to know. Afterwards, Su Hao took these two weapons to the outskirts of his territory, stood on an open plain, and summoned a large number of pallid skeleton warriors to test the weapons' power.

He took a deep breath, first picking up the Energy Gatling.

He aimed at a distant group of pallid skeleton warriors whose Supernatural Grade is Third Tier, their bones hard all over; ordinary Third Tier supernatural weapons struggle to inflict significant damage on them, making them ideal experimental targets.

Su Hao pulled the trigger; the Gatling roared to life instantly, firing energy bullets at supersonic speed toward the pallid skeleton warriors.

When the bullets struck the pallid skeleton warriors, their bodies seemed to be instantly pierced by an invisible force, leaving a huge hole.

Su Hao nodded slightly; this was only a preliminary test, but the results had already exceeded his expectations.

Next.

He activated the Gatling's rapid-fire mode. The entire Gatling seemed to turn into an awakened beast, wildly spewing out bullets.

The pale skeleton warriors in the distance instantly collapsed under the dense barrage, turning into a pile of bone fragments.

Su Hao's eyes flashed with shock; this power was ridiculously strong—ordinary Third-Tier Supernatural beings had no chance to resist.

It's just that the energy consumption is a bit high, the recoil is also a bit strong, and only a Third-Tier Supernatural can barely use it.

Afterward, Su Hao switched to the Energy Rocket Cannon.

This time, he aimed farther away, where there was likewise a group of pale skeleton warriors, who had beforehand used Blood Shield Technique and also built a thick bone wall around them with bone spikes.

Boom—! With the whistling launch of an explosive rocket shell, the surrounding forest seemed to tremble.

The explosive rocket shell struck the target area at astonishing speed, then erupted with a deafening roar, a blaze of fire shooting skyward like a miniature sun rising from the ground.

When the firelight faded, the entire test area had become a wasteland; the bone wall was instantly destroyed, leaving bone fragments scattered across the ground.

Even the pale skeleton warriors hiding behind the bone wall, who had used Blood Shield Technique, suffered serious injuries.

Su Hao gazed at the scene before him, feeling quite shocked.

The power of the Energy Rocket Cannon seemed even greater than that of the Energy Gatling.

However, the test was not yet over; Su Hao summoned more pale skeleton warriors and built a sturdier bone wall.

After everything was ready, Su Hao used the additional energy rocket cannon's barrage mode.

As he pulled the trigger, powerful rocket shells kept spewing from the muzzle, falling like a meteor shower onto the target position.

Boom boom boom—! Accompanied by successive violent booms, the surrounding forest was instantly engulfed in flames, as if it had experienced a miniature nuclear explosion.

When the smoke cleared, the bone wall was gone, leaving only a huge crater; the pale skeleton warriors behind it had likewise vanished, leaving only some bone fragments.

"This power is awesome!"

Gazing at the pitch-black crater, Su Hao broke into a radiant smile.

However, the purpose of designing these two weapons was to mount them on heavy armored vehicles; using them directly like this certainly wouldn't work.

"Ling'er, I need you to modify the armored vehicle so that we can control these two weapons from inside."

Ling'er nodded in agreement, returned to the mechanical vehicle factory, and made the corresponding changes to the heavy armored vehicle's design drawings.

Soon, a brand-new heavy armored vehicle was designed and produced by Ling'er.

On the body of the heavy armored vehicle there are multiple interfaces; these are the interfaces for installing the Energy Gatling and the Energy Rocket Launcher.

As long as the Energy Gatling and Energy Rocket Launcher are mounted on those interfaces, they can be operated from the vehicle's internal control room, ensuring the operator's safety.

After carefully inspecting the modified armored vehicle, Su Hao entered its driver's cabin and attempted to control the Energy Gatling and Energy Rocket Launcher via the vehicle.

He found that, through the internal control system, he could aim and fire energy bullets or rocket shells more easily, without worrying about any recoil—even an ordinary person could operate it effortlessly.

Moreover, thanks to the armored vehicle's strong defensive capabilities, there is no need to worry about external attacks in battle.

Su Hao was very pleased with the new heavy armored vehicle; he then had Ling'er begin mass production of them, and of course the mechanical transport airship must not be left behind.

After watching for a while at the mechanical vehicle factory, Old Man Andrew suddenly came over, looking excited.

"Su Hao, great news, so funny!" An "New hellish demon formula, I've finally developed it; this will definitely bring you a big surprise, you certainly haven't seen this type of species before, I believe you will definitely like it."

Hearing that, Su Hao felt a spark of curiosity.

He knew Old Man Andrew had been working hard these days to develop a new hellish demon formula to strengthen the territory's combat power.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that Old Man Andrew just enjoys researching this.

Old Man Andrew had been a Supernatural Sixth Rank in his lifetime; although his abilities are gone now, his experience and insight remain, and the formula he spent so long developing must have something extraordinary.

"Old Man Andrew, what special abilities does this hellish demon have?"

"Hahaha, secret, secret! The materials are all ready; once you refine it you'll know—let's hurry up and go?"

Seeing this, Su Hao stopped asking further; anyway, as long as the materials are ready, refining it won't take long.

Moreover, seeing it with one's own eyes allows a more intuitive sense of the hellish demon's power.

"Then let's go; let me see what surprise you can bring."

Su Hao smiled slightly, gave Ling'er a quick instruction, then headed toward the T235 Experimental Base.

Because of this formula, five hundred liters of Third-Tier Hellish Demon Adhesive are needed.

Thus, Su Hao, following his usual refinement process, took out the fascia he had peeled from his severed hand during this period from his Storage Bag.

He added an adequate amount of corrupted flesh and blood, placing them together into the Hellish Demon Adhesive manufacturing device.

After more than five hours, the Hellish Energy Conversion Device finally stopped supplying energy, and the Hellish Demon Adhesive manufacturing device gradually calmed down.

After a moment later, the lid of the Hellish Demon Joint Machine Manufacturing Device automatically opened, and a large mass of black liquid drifted out of the pot, hovering in midair.

According to Su Hao's visual estimate, this mass of black liquid amounted to at least six or seven thousand liters, enough for this refinement.
