<h4>Chapter 225 Laser Gun</h4>


    When Mary retrieved her small dagger with the intention of wanting to open up the crates, she was slightly disappointed that Shi Tian remained still.


    It was clear that she wanted to scare him a bit, making him think that she might want to silence him.


    s, it was a shame that Shi Tian wasn''t that ignorant or dumb to believe she would truly attempt such a thing at this current time.


    "Can''t you at least pretend to be frightened a bit?" Mary clicked her tongue in annoyance.


    "Oh no, please don''t stab me with that dagger." Shi Tian pretended, but it was horribly done and almost made it seem like he was being sarcastic.


    "You sound so fake, almost like those women with stic surgery and Botox."


    "That''s quite the analogy you came up with…"


    Mary shrugged her shoulders and proceeded to open up the crates. At first nce, the content inside seemed perfectly normal, with the drones and some guns.


    If it were any normal gun, Mary wouldn''t be intrigued, but she recognized the model and was astonished.


    "Damn, Commander Theobold is truly a generous person," Mary eximed in joy.


    "Generous?" Raising an eyebrow, Shi Tian nced at the content and didn''t find anything amazing aside from the drones.


    "Heh, it''s understandable why you didn''t think too much of these guns, Nathan." Mary chuckled softly. She then picked up the gun and took out the cartridge for Shi Tian to see.


    And once he got a clear look at it, Shi Tian was astonished as well.


    "What the hell?" He eximed slightly in shock but was able to calm down rather quickly thanks to his passive ability.


    "The ammos are actually Source Crystal?"


    "It''s not just that, Nathan. These are processed Source Crystal, and the gun is designed to extract the natural power of these Source Crystal which would generate an extranormalser." Mary exined, toying with the gun.


    It took Shi Tian for a moment to realize that despite all theplicated exnations, the gun was simply aser gun.


    "So it''s aser gun huh." Shi Tian muttered softly.


    Meanwhile, Mary sighed softly and shook her head. It was clear that Shi Tian was a country bumpkin that did not understand the true value of this gun.


    "Do you remember the Tenceloras monster?" She then asked.


    Shi Tian nodded his head. There was no way he would ever forget the appearance of the Tenceloras, as well as its contempt directed at him.


    "Their skins are metallic and cannot be prated through normal bullets, right? Well, thisser gun here could prate it, albeit needing a longer time, and required high uracy." Mary made a simpleparison, but it was enough for Shi Tian to understand its prowess.


    He had witnessed with his own eyes that a normal bullet had no effect on it.


    Heck, even those Esper Special Bullets seemed like cotton in front of the Tenceloras, dealing little to zero damage.


    "If thisser gun was so powerful, then why is no one using it?" Shi Tian raised an eyebrow and asked, clearly unable to fathom why such a powerful weapon was not poprized.


    "Do you think no one wants to get their hands on it? First of all, the gun structure is a difficult one to craft, even Mechanist Isaac has troubles with it. Additionally, the processed Source Crystals ammo is produced after extracting numerous Source Crystals."


    "By numerous, do you have an estimated number?"


    "At least 1000 and above Source Crystals are needed for the processing. It''s an expensive type of ammo and not many could even afford the actual gun itself."


    "I see…" With a newfound understanding and knowledge of it, Shi Tian realized why Mary was excited.


    Although there were only two of these special gun structures, there were at least 5 cartridges of these processed Source Crystals. This meant that the value of the crate alone far surpassed the money they had earned in the past with the selling of ymore Mines.


    "No wonder Commander Theobold felt heartache when he decided to give us some upgraded weapons." Shi Tian said softly. Even he would be heartbroken if he had to give out such expensive weapons for free.


    "Mhmm, but let''s not get distracted here. All of these items are not allowed to be used until we find out the bug." Mary warned, reminding him that there was a hidden bug item somewhere in the crates that could listen and track their location down.


    Shi Tian nodded his head, not letting these fancy weapons distract him.


    A few minutes had gone by, and Shi Tian unpackaged everything in an organized manner, but the bug item could still not be found.


    Even the crate itself was clear, prompting Shi Tian and Mary to be confused.


    Suddenly, Shi Tian had a brainstorm, recalling the fact that he was wearing the boosters'' suit. The boosters'' suit was equipped all along, but he had turned on the invisible function, concealing it from others.


    "Could it be like that?" Shi Tian murmured.


    "What is it, Nathan? Did you have a clue?" Hearing his murmur, Mary enquired if he had any new findings.


    Shi Tian nodded his head and proceeded to exin his thought process.


    After listening to him, Mary''s eyes widened in surprise. She quicklyposed herself and went to the side, opening a small cab.


    "If your deduction is true, then this bug can conceal its presence. Hence, it cannot be seen with the naked eye." Mary eximed, her hands quickly browsing through the content within the cab.


    "It can''t be seen with the naked eye, but it can''t avoid detection." Shi Tian added, given that their inspecting devices were able to detect something was amiss.


    It was just a shame that they were unable to find it despite knowing something was wrong.


    "Nathan,e and help me find a circr object in the other cab. I remember having a device that could pinpoint an item that could camouge or conceal its presence from others." Mary urged, her hand pointing at the opposite cab of hers.
