Chapter 437 Legendary Skill Part 2
In real-time, the system began to re-engineer his entire railgun right before his eyes.
His arms trembled slightly, releasing sand-like black material that swirled around him, gathering to form the weapon.
As he watched, intricate designs materialized before his eyes, as if they were being 3D printed.
Each component appeared with astounding precision, made possible after he had evolved into a Demon King and got a new type of body.
If before, his bones were like jelly that could be reshaped, now they resembled individual grains of sand, granting him the ability to create things with more details.
However, this type of change required immense mental power—so much that even a genius like him couldn't pull it off .
The level of intricacy involved in manipulating this many individual particles was beyond what any individual mind could handle.
Fortunately, the system operated like a supercomputer, taking into account each parts and processing the complex interactions seamlessly.
First, the barrel began to take shape, stretching out to be long and sleek
Next, the internal parts started to appear, with intricate gears and circuits assembling themselves at an extreme speed.
The system calculated the best way to fit everything together, ensuring each piece locked into place flawlessly.
The energy capacitors came next, round and pulsating softly with light.
They hovered for a moment before settling into their spots on the rail gun's frame.
As the final pieces formed—sights to help him aim and grips to steady his hold .n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Now, the rail gun looked like something forged by advanced machinery, far removed from the organic material of bones.
When he held it, it was —balanced and easy to carry around.
'So this is it,' he said, aiming the weapon. Stay tuned with empire
It felt lighter than before, fitting perfectly in his hands.
When he charged it, the energy flowed into the weapon instantly—same like last time—but to his surprise, it consumed only 45% of the energy to achieve the same effect.
Eager to test its power, he aimed at a distant rock formation, a cluster of jagged peaks.
He pulled the trigger, and the shot blasted out with a buzzing sound.
The impact was instant; a brilliant beam of dark red energy surged forth, piercing through everything .
Clean, precise hole marked where the attack had passed, as if a master sculptor had chiseled away the stone.
Next, he focused on charging the rail gun again.
This time, he managed to hold the charge for 12 seconds—a massive improvement given that he hadn't yet increased his endurance.
When he pulled the trigger this time, there was no sound at all.
The laser zipped forward, its momentum so fast that even the buzzing caused by air friction was erased, swallowed by the sheer speed of the shot.
'System, how fast is it now?'
[55% of the speed of light]
He was very impressed.
The rail gun could now unleash an attack at half the speed of light.
One Percent might not seem big at first, but when considering that the speed of light is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second—often rounded to 300,000 kilometers per second.
This small percentage actually translates to an increase of about 3,000 kilometers per second.
To put that into perspective, if he moved even 0.1% of that 3000km/s speed, his whole body would instantly be vaporized due to friction.
'Is it just me, or am I too overpowered now for a Demon King? I don't think anyone can dodge this attack, even me,'
The leap in his power felt almost surreal; it was as if he had skyrocketed beyond what even the most veteran Demon Kings could achieve
[Host, your railgun could bridge the gap between ranks, allowing you to contend with Peak Demon Kings. However, you must not be complacent. The power of Demon Kings varies, and the one with the most firepower does not always have the advantage.]
Reign nodded, recalling his fight against that female demon who use illusions.
It was a clash that had left a lasting impression on him.
At that time, his firepower was already far superior to hers, but he had still been forced to flee.
The memory stung, a reminder that strength alone wasn't enough to ensure victory.
But still, having this kind of trump card was enough to boost his confidence.
With that in mind, he decided to improve more original skills.
The more he had, the better he could adjust to any situation .
Among his latest creations, he focused further into a new skill he had developed: Electromagnetic Shield.
This defensive ability would create a barrier of electromagnetic energy around him, capable of deflecting incoming attacks theoretically speaking.
At first, he thought that it might not be as helpful as he hoped.
The idea behind it felt rough around the edges because he lacked the necessary knowledges to improve it.
However, with his R&D option available through the system, he quickly realized that he had the means to refine it further.
[Electromagnetic Shield : Quality: ]
Unlike his Railgun, which had undergone countless improvements and refinements, this new skill was far less polished .
[Quality >> Legendary 1500 Skill Points ]
'The cost is also higher because its starting point is lower,'
After contemplating various strategies, he finally decided to improve Magnetic Control manually at first, curious to see how far he could push it using only his own intellect and creativity.
To his surprise, he managed to elevate Magnetic Control all the way to Elite Level, which he considered a huge achievement.
Then, he decided to add the remaining points to upgrade it to Legendary status.
The results were astonishing.
All over his body, small magnetic nodes appeared, about the size of a ping pong ball, that would direct the magnetic field much more effectively.
It even took into account his Symbiotic Suit, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the magnet.
'I can't believe how much better this is,'
Comparing his old design to the system's was like comparing the work of a highschooler to that of an actual engineer with decades of experience—the gap was huge.
