Chapter 642: Aware Of Everything?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Following Watson’s voice, the Handheld Magical Cannon in front of him split into several pieces. Then, several Handheld Magical Cannons were transformed into rays of light and fused, turning into a smaller, more gorgeous hand cannon. The palm-sized gun had a scope on it, and the barrel that looked much smaller flickered with a platinum luster.

[Congratulations, Master, on fusing multiple Handheld Magical Cannon.]

[You have obtained a peak platinum-tier item, the Super Magic Pistol.]

[Platinum-tier item: The Super Magic Pistol]

[Effects: Rapid Reloading (you can reload up to ten magic crystals at a time, one of which is the primary energy source and the other is the backup energy source), Precision Strike (the pistol has an automatic aiming function), Platinum Star (the flames from the muzzle can penetrate the defense of a platinum-tier powerhouse), Bullet Fragments (the bullets of the pistol are made of magic elements wrapped in a metal shell, and when the metal shell is shattered, it will cause large-scale damage).]

[Additional effects: Ignored Defense (the bullets from that pistol have armor-piercing functions), Sound Elimination (the bullets do not make any sound when they are fired).]

Watson fired a shot at the ground as he held the Super Magic Pistol in his hand.

A metal bullet immediately sunk into the ground after a faint sound. After impacting the ground, the metal shell exploded into a ball of broken steel, much like a sharp dagger cutting the ground. The magical energy contained within the metal shell was released due to the explosion. Scorching magical flames swept the ground, leaving scorch scars.

The newly built Handheld Magical Cannon could crush the ground several meters below with a single cannonball, and the Super Magic Pistol that Watson had fused was dozens of times more powerful. The fractured metal shell alone may cause the same amount of damage, not to mention the subsequent high-temperature flames. It was hot enough to turn platinum-tier ores into molten lava.

The dwarven elder was forced to take a few steps backward due to the potency of the Super Magic Pistol. He was taken aback by the scene in front of him.

“Did you just duplicate several Handheld Magical Cannons and fuse them?”

“That is right. The power to duplicate the Handheld Magical Cannons is derived from the ring on my finger. This is a platinum-tier artifact known as the Wish for the World ring. As for the technique to combine Handheld Magical Cannons, it is a secret of our Kingdom of Kings.”

Watson’s expression was unfathomable. He removed a seven-colored ring from his right index finger and handed it to the dwarven elder.

“You can make a wish with the ring three times a day. I just made two wishes, so there’s still one more chance.”

He could not share the system because it was his most important secret. In a strict sense, the system was also a form of technology. It was natural for the dwarves who championed invention and creation to be astounded by the system’s power, let alone the fact that the system could offer the dwarves an impact just by Wish for the World ring.

“I had no idea there was such a magical tool in the world. You simply need to pay half the reward each time to be able to make three wishes. Isn’t it true that if you insist on making a wish every day, you can only cut one diamond-tier tool into eight pieces? That is simply a divine tool that can improve the kingdom’s output!”

The old dwarf glanced at the tool Watson had handed him over and over again, his face filled with admiration. In his opinion, Watson’s ring was far more powerful than the Handheld Magical Cannon he had created. Not to mention, no other tool in the Dwarven Kingdom could compete with Watson’s ring.

“Your Majesty, I have improved the Handheld Magical Cannon. I’m curious what you think of my upgraded Handheld Magical Cannon. What do you think of my Wish for the World ring?”

“King Watson, the Super Magic Pistol that you have modified is indeed very powerful. It seems that the Kingdom of Kings is also good in invention and creation. As for the Wish for the World ring, I wonder how many of those items are in your country. If there were very few of them, the result would not be less either.”

King Prussia restrained his displeasure and maintained a pleasant appearance on his face. He was, however, silently cursing in his heart. The ring had such a profound effect on the world that it completely defied the rule of conservation of energy. There was no way it could be mass-produced. If there were only one or two Wish for the World rings in the world, eight or more diamond-tier products would be manufactured every day. It was inconsequential to an entire country.

Watson chuckled and extended his hands once he finished speaking, which startled him. He noticed that every finger on Watson’s finger was adorned with a Wish for the World ring and said, “I am sorry, but there are a lot of these rings in the Kingdom of Kings. It is not just me; everyone has one. Even though I have not counted it, I believe there are at least a million people who have this ring.”

A million?

Prussia’s face was filled with astonishment. One or two rings might be ineffective, but thousands of Wish for the World rings would be significant. The riches that could be garnered by making a wish every day would more than treble a country’s national strength. He had a feeling Watson was bragging, but he could not uncover any proof.

He had intended to slap Watson in the face with the Dwarven Kingdom’s creations, but they were ultimately defeated. King Prussia clenched his teeth; he knew he could not go on like this. “The Handheld Magical Cannon was not the first invention to be displayed. Compared to all of the works presented at the invention conference, it can only be called ordinary. Someone else’s creation must be more powerful than that. Haymordinger, go get me some decent pieces.”

King Prussia, who had just been applauding the Handheld Magical Cannon, changed his strategy at that moment. Haymordinger stood up respectfully at his request. He walked to a corner of the venue after nodding to Watson and the people from the Kingdom of Kings.

He was aware of what King Prussia was thinking. Watson must have been terrified by the weaponry he was about to display. He could no longer enable individuals who participated in the competition to display their artwork freely. The site was set up just for an invention competition, but there were only weapons. Some of the weapons were cutting-edge technology that he had requested someone to plant on his behalf.

All he needed to do was to display those cutting-edge technologies in front of Watson.

“The second contestant is the champion of last year’s invention competition. The weapon he showed us is a bionic magical beast! ”

Haymordinger pulled a proud middle-aged man in his thirties to the center of the venue. Next to the middle-aged man was a magical beast more than ten meters long and several meters tall, emitting a powerful platinum-tier aura. The surface of the magical beast’s body was covered with hard ores. Gears connected its joints. On its back were pitch-black cannons that looked different from ordinary magical beasts. That magical beast looked more like a giant machine.

“The Bionic Magical Beast is a brand-new innovation I created this year. It is hardly an exaggeration to call it the most spectacular invention in recent dwarves’ history! The Bionic Magical Beast has the offensive power of a platinum-tier magical beast and much more formidable defense power. People can use it to conduct exploration, search, and other operations such as combat. At the same time, the Bionic Magical Beast sill still possesses a basic intellect. As long as it is given a command, it will rigorously obey it and not deviate from it.

“All of the aforementioned are the bionic magic beast’s basic skills. Next, I would like to discuss its most potent component. That is, it can transform into a four-wheeled cart or grow wings and fly. It can even address the problem of travel with the Bionic Magical Beast. It will eventually penetrate every area of the Dwarven Kingdom.”

After the introduction, the haughty middle-aged dwarf gestured to the Bionic Magical Beast beside him. The Bionic Magical Beast, which was more than ten meters long and had a menacing appearance, spread its four limbs and folded them into wings on the ground. The gears on its abdomen and chest were linked together, forming four massive wheels. Its rear was sunken downward, revealing a large compartment for at least two persons. It moved fast on the ground by using the wheels.

The gigantic wheel produced by the bionic magic beast’s gears shrank into its body after a brief movement. It flew into the sky as the wings made by its four limbs fluttered. It was also not slow in terms of speed.

The Bionic Magical Beast could transform into a four-wheeled transport or a flying tool by spreading its wings. It was a magical beast with formidable combat abilities. It had to be claimed that it was a very exquisite innovation in that world. Aside from magical monsters that could transform into numerous forms, it was uncommon to see a four-wheeled vehicle that could be operated without the use of a mount.

It was no surprise the middle-aged dwarf felt so pleased with himself. He had every reason to feel proud of himself for creating such a new object.

“Your Majesty, what do you think of that invention?” Haymordinger turned around and asked, his eyes shining.

The Bionic Magical Beast seemed to be very powerful, but it was only a semi-finished product in reality. Since it was made entirely of ores and metal gears and magical stones powered it, the bionic beast would consume many magic stones every time it moved. Just walking a kilometer would consume an entire platinum-tier magical stone. Reducing energy consumption had always been a problem that the bionic beast could not overcome.

The Dwarven Kingdom only needed to show the weapon’s strength. As for the flaws, as long as they did not say anything, Watson would not know.

The person who won the title of King of Invention in the last term was Haymordinger’s student. He had also participated in the development of Bionic Beasts, so he was very clear about their strength. He believed that that invention would make Watson cry out.

However, what surprised him was that, after listening to the introduction of Bionic Beasts, Watson reached out to stroke his chin and shook his head. “That invention is not very good. It’s better than the previous one. ”

“What do you mean?”

His statements made the middle-aged inventor of bionic creatures appear dissatisfied. “You stated that the invention is not very good. Please tell me what is going on.”

The middle-aged dwarf appeared to be adamant that Watson would not be allowed to leave if he did not understand what he said that day. “The reason I claimed that invention is not good is that it appears to have many purposes, but they are all showy and unreal!” Watson said, not standing in ceremony. “To begin with, the ability to turn into a four-wheeled vehicle may not be faster than a magically powered horse. The replacement of magical stones regularly will result in a more significant consumption. This item will not gain popularity.

“If I pursue the speed of traveling on land, I don’t even need a carriage. Anything I create will have better attributes than the Bionic Magical Beast.”

Watson pointed to the ground and ignited the system’s fusion as he spoke. The ground emitted light and transformed into a platinum-colored road due to his fusion. On the gleaming platinum-colored ground, teleportation circles emerged.

“This is the magical passage I created. It’s also platinum-tier. There’s a magical array on that platinum-tier passage. By absorbing the magic elements in the air and operating it, it can instantly teleport people to any place that the passage can reach! In terms of speed, it’s far faster than the Bionic Magical Beast. In terms of maintenance costs, it’s far less expensive than using magic stones. Without maintenance, that path could be used for decades without any problems.”

Watson waved his hand, and a Dragon Knight stood up and proceeded to the tunnel he had made. His body vanished when it lit up, and he reappeared at the end of the tunnel outside the arena. The Dragon Knight reappeared, accompanied by a blaze of light from the teleportation circle. The voyage of several kilometers took less than a second, confirming Watson’s claim.

Ignoring the Haymordinger and the middle-aged dwarf, whose attitudes were becoming increasingly glum, Watson said, “In terms of flying speed, the Bionic Magical Beast has no edge. Can it outrun the dragon no matter how quickly it flies?”

“It is impossible to compare the speed of travel on land to that of the magical tunnel I built. It cannot be compared to the dragons in terms of flying speed. In terms of battle strength, a platinum-tier magical beast is utterly unrivaled! Overall, the Bionic Magical Beast is a piece of garbage. The so-called invention is the creation of a tool that outperforms the present item. Combining these existing tools will result in something that appears to have multiple functions. That is not what you would call an invention. It is basically stealing other people’s ideas.”

“Even if it is plagiarized, that piece of work is not deemed top-notch. Previously, I developed an item known as the Deep Sea Submarine. It also combines combat power and ship capabilities. It is quite similar to your bionic beast. I will show you.”

The earth in front of Watson began to quake as he waved his hand. Dense water elements accumulated on the ground’s surface, forming a pool of water that was neither too large nor too little. The water’s surface rose to form the shape of a magical array. Sky-blue magic symbols surged within one by one. From within, a massive pitch-black submarine drifted forth. Many of the dwarves were perplexed by the iron-shell-like seal structure.

Their astonishment quickly turned to surprise when they noticed the submarine swimming freely beneath the ocean. That was not something that a standard spacecraft could do. The submersible remained motionless no matter how much the water’s surface trembled. It was impenetrable to even a drop of water.

The Deep Sea Submarine jumped out of the ocean after circling twice under the water. With a single shake of its body, it transformed into a formidable diamond-tier magical beast with massive tentacles and scarlet eyes.

The magical beast that the Deep Sea Submarine changed into was a truly magical beast with its own intelligence, as opposed to the Bionic Magical Beast. It could recover energy by eating instead of devouring magic stones, and its battle strength was much greater.

“How is that possible?”

The middle-aged dwarf’s face was filled with disbelief when he saw the mystical beast that the Deep Sea Submarine had converted into, and he sat on the ground with a pale face.

He had constructed a Bionic Magical Beast with the ideal appearance and skills similar to a real magical beast. It was made of machinery on the inside and could be replaced with various pieces. However, using ores and metals to create a live entity was easier said than done. What he had been unable to do before now materialized in front of him.

Watson’s submarine was clearly a more evolved version of his Bionic Magical Beast. What Watson had said to him earlier had initially made him skeptical, but he could not reject it. Watson’s comprehension of inventions was definitely superior to him to develop a Deep Sea Submarine.

“I am surprised that King of the Kingdom of Kings was so knowledgable about inventions. Since that is the case, I will no longer conceal it. I have an invention here. I hope His Majesty can help in assessing it.”

Haymordinger clenched his fists. He did not anticipate that even the invention competition’s former winner would amaze Watson with his inventions. Instead, they were devalued to the point of insignificance. The crucial point was that Watson’s comments were perfectly sensible, and he could not think of any way to reject them.

If that trend persisted, it would be hard to achieve the goal of utilizing the invention competition to scare Watson. He clenched his teeth and resolved to show his Trump card. A girl with half a robotic body and white hair approached him after hearing his voice.

“Meryl, let His Majesty witness the mechanical language you invented.”

Haymordinger’s beard curled upward as he pointed at Watson angrily.

“Yes, Master.”

Meryl went out and began writing green symbols in the air with her semi-mechanized arm. Those green symbols formed a flood of numbers in the air, which fused into her mechanical arm. Her mechanical arm was promptly upgraded. Metal and gears continued to move, and one by one, thick and lengthy gun barrels appeared. The ground melted as scorching lasers flashed across it.

“Mechanical language can upgrade weapons, and it can also perform complex calculations on behalf of the human brain. You haven’t seen that before, have you?” Watson, to his dismay, was not only unsurprised, but his expression became strange.

“What kind of machine language is that? Is it not just a computer language? Using binary to perform calculations, the different combinations of two numbers can contain all commands. ”

Others might not comprehend what Meryl was doing, but he was well aware of it. The numerals generated by 0 and 1 were too similar to his modern computer language.

It was obvious that the Dwarven Kingdom wanted to show him their powerful strength, but he could not hold it in anymore. That so-called machine language did not seem to be as diverse as the computer language.

“I did not expect you to understand that. If that’s the case, then I don’t need to be polite to you.” Haymordinger’s face darkened. He opened his right hand and followed his movements. The ground suddenly cracked open, and a huge light shield appeared.

Inside the light shield was a massive chess piece. Three little balls on the chess piece were circling in a perfect circle. They could not touch it no matter how hard they tried. At that moment, Haymordinger summoned that chess piece, which was the dwarven race chess piece. The goal was to use the race chess piece’s power to conjure a powerful weapon.

The dwarven chess pieces had total technological power. They had the ability to conjure formidable weapons from another time. Since they had not learned the mechanical language, the items they summoned were haphazard.

It was different then. Since the invention competition could not convince Watson, he would use future technology that even the dwarves could not understand to intimidate Watson.

“Next, I’m going to summon a weapon that you’ve never seen before. It’s a bomb. The power of the explosion is enough to destroy a country. In the place of the blast, there will still be strong radiation. Plants can’t grow, and all living creatures living in them will become deformed. That kind of weapon—”

“Say no more. Isn’t that an atomic bomb?”

Before Haymordinger could finish, Watson had already answered him. His words almost made Haymordinger spit out a mouthful of blood.

Was it over?

Watson had previously only remarked on their creation after seeing it. He could understand it despite his lack of understanding. He had not even finished speaking yet, and Watson had already rendered his verdict. It was simply incredible. After all, he was attempting to summon technology that did not exist at the time.. He was perplexed by that. Was the guy in front of him aware of everything?
