Chapter 95 Blv-21
Vanessa was dumbfounded when Shi Tian revealed his plan on heading out to the wilderness.
Couldn't he have said that earlier to save her the trouble of asking for a truce?
No, that wasn't even the problem that she was concerned about.
It was the fact that she would be starving then. Shi Tian was always the one buying food at home and there was zero food at home for her to eat.
Hell, even the refrigerator was faulty and unusable, so there was no way of storing food in it.
What was worse was that she couldn't risk going outside and getting ambushed again. Even though she had recovered from her injuries, she doubted she was capable of defending herself if she failed to do it once already.
"Are you telling me to starve to death then?" Vanessa stared at him with puppy eyes and asked. She was no different than being on house arrest and had been relying on him to deliver food.
Meanwhile, Shi Tian nearly choked on his food when he saw her acting coy all of a sudden.
"Cough cough cough, please, never give me that look again." Shi Tian pleaded, patting his chest repeatedly.
A few seconds later, he then pointed at her Dimension Ring and said, "I'll just buy you some food to sustain for a week minimum and you can store them in your Dimension Ring."
"The food would be spoiled by then, Nathan. The Dimension Ring is only for storing, but it doesn't stop time in the 4-dimensional space." Vanessa explained.
"Is that so?"
"I can't even tell if you're trolling me now or not.."
Shi Tian scratched his head and sighed. He thought that her ring was capable of preserving food, but it seemed like that was impossible.
Maybe if it was food that is meant to be preserved for a long time, then it was possible.
"What if I buy some meat jerky or some frozen package food for you to store?" Shi Tian asked.
"You expect me to eat meat jerky or some frozen package food for a week? You might as well just tell me to die then." Vanessa clicked her tongue in annoyance.
If she had to live such a frugal and fugitive life, then she might as well risk it all and head outside to get some real food. She refused to go back to the old days where she must make do with whatever disgusting food she could find to live on.
"Then you are free to die." Shi Tain said coolly, standing up and walking back to his room. He was already being generous to offer her some viable options, but still, she refused his goodwill.
Meanwhile, Vanessa could only bite her lips in a somewhat sorrowful manner as she watched him close the door.
'This heartless bastard..' She cursed him silently, feeling depressed. She wanted to tell him why she refused those options, but her pridefulness disallowed her to do so. Those are something that had occurred in the past and something that she wished to never divulge to anyone.
As she silently continued to eat the food that was on the table, Shi Tian had already begun researching the Light Beam blueprint.
The blueprint was categorized into numerous parts that would be assembled into what the real Light Beam construction was like.
Though with his current skills, it was impossible for him to construct the real thing.
However, that doesn't mean he couldn't still attempt to craft some of the small parts which have similar abilities to the Light Beam but are less powerful.
The structure of these small parts is complex and intertwined with a lot of circuit connections as well. So if it weren't for the blueprint, Shi Tian would have zero clues or ideas on how these parts even functioned.
'Master Isaac's mechanic skills are truly unfathomable. How did he manage to craft my mechanical right arm in such a short amount of time?' Shi Tian wondered silently.
His head was starting to hurt just from discerning what the connections were and what he needed to do. To summarize, the blueprint had a total of 7 points that he needed to be concerned about.
The 7 points were Dimensions and Measurements, Technical Drawings, Material Specifications, Assembly Instructions, Functionality and Operation, Safety Considerations, and last but not least, the annotations and notes made by Isaac Aaronax.
Each of the points was filled with information and details, especially the safety considerations. It was said that one slight mishap or misconnection of the wiring process could result in the item self-destructing, with the blast radius indeterminate.
Though not all was lost because Isaac Aaronax made a note of how to approach the assembly of the real Light Beam.
Instead of trying to build the real thing from the start, Isaac Aaronax had suggested building a tiny part labeled Blv-21, a small device that could create a tiny flashbang. historical
The materials required for it were also handed out to him.
As for the Blv label, Shi Tian guessed it probably stands for blind or low vision, an equivalent of the flashbang meaning. The number 21 should be the current version of the flashbang, with the previous number being an experimental type.
"Although this isn't an offensive type mech item, it could still create some time for me since its purpose is to blind the enemy." Shi Tian mumbled softly, turning his head to glance at the materials he had.
Counting them thoroughly, Shi Tian made a quick calculation that he had approximately 6 chances of crafting a Blv-21.
Nodding his head, Shi Tian knew what he would craft first, but before that, he needed to find a suitable place to become a temporary workshop for him to craft.
It would be stupid of him to attempt to craft an item in his bedroom that had the possibility of detonating if there was a mishap.
'If I recall, there should be a storage room. Although a bit small, it should be suitable to become a workshop.' Shi Tian thought to himself.
