75: Crazy bombing! Art is explosion!

“That should be good enough!”

He looked at the target array in front of him, with rows of targets set at 50 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters, and 300 meters.

Specifically, the targets at different distances were all made of the same material, allowing for precise control of variables for each distance segment’s shooting.

Lin Qi nodded and said, “Wan Yue, you record the data, and Brother Jiang, you operate the camera. Make sure to record the entire process.”

“Yes!” Shen Wanyue and Jiang Rencheng responded in unison, then rushed to their respective positions.

Soon.

With the camera in place, Lin Qi, clad in the Shadow Armor Mark VII, looked at the lens and said,

“The Demolition Hammer – Type I Electromagnetic Rail Rifle, fully assembled test, is ready. The first full assembly test is about to commence.”

“The test targets are made of various composite materials, which will effectively simulate the vast majority of target armors this weapon might encounter on a future battlefield.”

“Now, commencing the test.”

After speaking.

Under the camera’s recording, Lin Qi picked up the electromagnetic rail rifle from the table again.

Nodding at the camera, Lin Qi took a deep breath, held the electromagnetic rail rifle with both hands, cradling it against his chest, and assumed a standard rifle shooting stance.

“Buzz…”

Instantly!

Accompanied by the appearance of a black shadow, the grenade, fired at three times the speed of sound, fiercely struck the target!

“Boom!…”

As the grenade exploded, all objects within a ten-meter radius were destroyed by the scattering steel pellets!

It was fortunate that no one was standing nearby; otherwise, with that explosive energy, a human body would instantly be reduced to minced meat!

“Report!”

Looking at the target wall in front of her, Shen Wanyue quickly recorded, “At 50 meters, the 15 cm aluminum alloy target was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm homogeneous steel was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm special steel was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm titanium alloy was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm ceramic composite was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm concrete was completely penetrated.”

“The 15 cm brick and stone were completely penetrated.”

…

Just like a waterfall of code appearing after a computer boots up, Lin Qi silently repeated in his mind as he listened to Shen Wanyue’s series of reports beside him.

Soon.

As Shen Wanyue finished her report.

Lin Qi nodded and said, “Commencing the 100-meter target test. Shooter ready.”

“Observer and recorder ready!”

As Shen Wanyue and Jiang Rencheng confirmed, Lin Qi pulled the trigger with the assistance of the Shadow Armor’s intelligent system for ballistic calculations.

“Buzz…”

Another grenade.

However, compared to the results just now, the performance was clearly not just a little bit worse.

Among the dozen or so materials, only the more fragile targets like brick and stone, concrete, and aluminum alloy were completely penetrated.

As for homogeneous steel, special steel, titanium alloy, and composite ceramic armor…

The first two were largely penetrated, even almost completely!

But almost is still almost.

If it wasn’t completely penetrated, it was a failure!

As for the latter two, let alone almost.

The deepest penetration was in the titanium alloy, which was penetrated by forty percent of the shrapnel.

As for the ceramic composite armor, it didn’t even reach ten percent!

Lin Qi frowned slightly.

However, he didn’t say much.

After all.

This kind of result was normal.

Without changing the warhead, achieving this level of performance was already quite excellent.

After thinking for a moment.

After Shen Wanyue finished recording, Lin Qi fired two more shots at the 200-meter and 300-meter targets.

Seeing that at this distance, even the concrete target was difficult to penetrate, Lin Qi unloaded the magazine and replaced it with one containing high-explosive armor-piercing rounds.

“Whoosh…”

“Magazine replacement complete. After target refresh, testing the effect of high-explosive armor-piercing rounds.”

After speaking.

Lin Qi casually put the electromagnetic rail rifle on safety, and together with Jiang Rencheng and Shen Wanyue, quickly refreshed the target wall before saying,

“Let’s begin!”

Buzz…

The 35mm high-explosive armor-piercing round roared like a giant dragon as it blasted towards the target.

Soon.

Before anyone could react.

The target wall at 50 meters instantly shattered.

It should be noted that armor-piercing rounds are called armor-piercing rounds precisely because they possess extremely terrifying armor-piercing capabilities.

And with a high-explosive warhead added, its explosive destructive power directly increased by several levels compared to ordinary armor-piercing rounds!

“Report!”

Shen Wanyue took a deep breath.

“All targets at 50 meters have been pulverized. More detailed destruction analysis results will require reviewing the video footage.”

Lin Qi nodded.

He didn’t speak.

Instead, after confirming that both were ready, he fired again, blasting towards the target wall at 100 meters!

“Bang!”

Accompanied by a huge roar, Shen Wanyue’s pupils constricted slightly, and Jiang Rencheng beside her gasped!

Shattered!

It was also pulverized!

Under the devastation of the high-explosive warhead, the titanium alloy target, which had previously only been half-penetrated, was now scorched into a sieve by the high-temperature iron rain.

Even the toughest composite ceramic armor was now penetrated, revealing layers of composite material inside!

“Report!”

Listening to Shen Wanyue quickly report the results, Lin Qi’s mouth, covered by the faceplate, curved slightly as he said with a smile,

“Not bad, not bad. As expected, high-explosive armor-piercing rounds are formidable. This power is not just a little bit stronger than the most ordinary grenade from before!”

“Again!”

“Let’s see if it can handle 200 meters!”

As he spoke, Lin Qi fired again after the two were ready, and this time, to Lin Qi’s complete surprise, the high-explosive armor-piercing round still succeeded!

In the high-definition camera playback of the Shadow Armor, accompanied by the dazzling fire, the target wall at 200 meters was instantly melted and penetrated by the high-temperature iron rain.

Even the closest brick and stone target was pulverized by the energy impact!

“Continue!”

Lin Qi’s eyes widened.

He spoke with a glint in his eyes.

However…

The targets at 300 meters did not pulverize as Lin Qi expected, but only pulverized the fragile ones such as brick and stone, and concrete.

Lin Qi shrugged.

“Still pretty good!”

“Come on!”

“Keep changing the ammunition!”

“Since the high-explosive armor-piercing round has this effect, then I’m truly curious about the results of our most powerful and single-point penetration-strongest high-explosive anti-tank round!”

Just like the names of these ammunitions—armor-piercing, anti-tank, high-explosive, grenade—these ammunitions have different effects because their explosive principles are different.

For example, the armor-piercing capability Lin Qi is currently pursuing.

This is where armor-piercing and anti-tank rounds excel.

In fact, because anti-tank rounds spray high-temperature iron rain along a small angle in front, their destructive power is even stronger than armor-piercing rounds!

“Are you ready?”

Soon, as Lin Qi changed the magazine, the full magazine of high-explosive anti-tank rounds made Lin Qi’s lips curve uncontrollably as he said,

“If you’re ready, I’m going to start!”

As Shen Wanyue and Jiang Rencheng nodded in response again, Lin Qi directly pulled the trigger, and then something that shocked everyone suddenly happened!
