Doomsday Code

Chapter 849 Theoretical Argument

The dust kicked up by the magic cannon also made Huidun and the others squint their eyes. When the dust cleared, they saw the huge pit.

When the test researchers saw the power of this shot, they all hugged each other and cheered.

But at this moment, the magic cannon that was about to regroup and gather made a crackling sound, and then the mithril plates on it all fell down with a crash.

The mithril piece that fell to the ground instantly ignited the grass on the test site due to its extremely high temperature.

Seeing this, Huidun and others immediately started to put out the fire.

Although the ending was a bit anticlimactic, Penbes and the others were still very excited.

Because at least they have actually produced the magic cannon they envisioned. As long as they make improvements to this prototype in the future, I believe it won’t be long before the real magic cannon appears on the battlefield.

Returning to the research institute, Huidun nodded happily and said:

"Professor, you have done a great job. I will give you a reward, but I want to see the experiment of the second improved machine as soon as possible.

Don't worry, you can write me a note if you need anything, and I will do my best to meet your needs."

When Peng Beisi heard this, he chuckled and said:

"Actually, it's very simple for Your Highness to see the improved Model 2 as soon as possible. All you need is for Your Highness to help me recruit a few senior CNC engineers from the Institute of Science, as the next improvements will require a large number of mathematical calculation models."

Huidun didn't expect that Peng Beis was planning to attack Ximov's team.

Although Huidun also wanted to see the magic cannon that could be used in actual combat as soon as possible, this involved Ximov after all, so he had to discuss it with Ximov.

"Professor, you're really putting me in a difficult position. I need to talk to Simov and see if he can spare some math experts to help you."

Peng Beis didn't expect Huidun to answer him like this. He thought that since he had taken out a powerful weapon like the magic cannon, Huidun should spare no effort to support their magic institute.

Of course, Peng Beisi would not say anything to Hui Dun, but he said angrily:

"We're at a critical juncture right now. I'm going to go find that kid, Simov, and see if he still has the guts to keep those math experts in his hands."

Penbes was about to do it as he said this, and it just so happened that the two schools were right across from each other.

Seeing the situation, Huidun had no choice but to follow him to find Ximov.

Moreover, Huidun himself also hoped that Ximov could second a mathematics expert and a few apprentices to help Penbes.

After all, the project they were working on took too long, and the magic cannon made by Penbes during this period could serve as a temporary ballast.

I believe that with the magic cannon and today's artillery, even those big kingdoms that are eyeing us covetously will have to think twice.

When the two arrived at the scientific institute, it was already night and Ximov was preparing to go home after get off work.

When he saw Huidun returning with Pengbeis, he had just finished a meeting and had something to say to Huidun and Pengbeis.

"Your Highness, Professor, you've arrived just in time. We just had a meeting at the General Engineering Department, and we're shorthanded for refining the raw ore. Professor, there are many mages on your side who are free and could come and help us out."

Simov said, holding the two men's hands.

When Penbes heard this, he immediately shook off Simov's hand, then blew his beard and glared, saying:

"Are you blind? What do you mean the mages here are idle? I see thousands of you here, people coming and going, I think you are the ones who are idle.

So today, I'm here to borrow a few math experts from you. We've already built a prototype of the magic cannon, and we need them to help us complete the mathematical model for the improved one."

This is not to say that Peng Beisi did not keep it confidential, but because he and Ximov are both senior executives of the institute, and many projects between the two sides are intertwined.

So Ximov really knew about the magic cannon project.

The only truly top-secret research in the institute at present is the one that Simov and a group of chief engineers are currently working on. This is a project that even Penbes doesn't know about.

When he heard that the prototype of the magic cannon had appeared in Penbes, Ximov was not surprised at all. Instead, he almost burst out laughing.

"Professor, you have thousands of people working on this for several years, and you have only just come up with a prototype. I think you are just wasting resources.

And professor, you don't have to worry about it. I will never lend you my math expert because we have already verified what you have done, and it does not pass the theoretical data.

With the power you've indicated, unless you hire a legendary mage to help etch the magic patterns, it will definitely be overloaded."

"Even if there was no overload during the test launch, then that thing is definitely a disposable item and cannot become a regular deployment unit."

Simov's words were like a knife, piercing Penbes's heart.

"Damn it! Since you knew we couldn't get through, why didn't you notify us first?"

At this moment, Penbes wanted to rush up and beat up Simov.

However, Simov said:

"Professor, do you think the most valuable thing is your success? What's truly valuable is the hands-on skills and experimental experience you've accumulated during the experiment."

"And we've already figured it out. Your thing needs to be downgraded. You can forget about making a cannon, but it's possible to make it into a gun."

As he spoke, Simov brought Penbes and the other two to the archive room marked as top secret, and then took out a feasibility study report on the magic energy gun marked as top secret.

"This is something we researched with the elves, and His Majesty has already made a prototype gun in Moonlight Forest."

"Professor, take it. Perhaps this report will be helpful to your research. You might even be able to circumvent the accuracy issue and create a magic cannon."

Huidun, who had been standing by, was also feeling ups and downs in his mood. He thought that he could really make a magic cannon in a short time, but he didn't expect that Ximov and others had already proved it mathematically.

Although he complained a little about Ximov not telling him about this, Ximov was right. What really matters is not the result, but the process.

Moreover, when Penbes and his team launched the magic energy cannon project, they did not inform Simov about the project. If he had said in advance that Penbes would not approve it, it would definitely have caused conflict between the two institutes.

It seems that Ma Huidun needs to put more effort into the management and projects of the institute.

"Your Highness, there's no need to be discouraged by the failure of their magic cannon project. Just now at the meeting, Dila submitted a project report. I'm sure Your Highness will be pleased after reading it."
