The new era of mankind with destiny in hand at the end of the world

The infected person's body began to undergo obvious changes. His skin gradually lost its color and became as pale as paper. His eyes slowly turned crimson and flashed with strange light. His mouth opened and let out a low roar, like a demon from hell.

He struggled frantically, trying to break free and rush towards the crowd.

However, at the critical moment, a soldier on duty acted decisively, raised his gun, and shot at the infected person without hesitation.

A beam of light accurately hit the head of the infected person who had turned into a zombie. Blood splattered everywhere and the infected person fell to the ground and died on the spot.

Seeing this, other soldiers raised their weapons and prepared to deal with any emergency.

Looking at the unusual light coming out of the pistol, An Ning asked in surprise: "Is that a laser gun?"

Xuanyuan Zunqi nodded and said, "It can be said that it is a new type of weapon developed by the base's research institute. It uses the energy in the crystal core to release a powerful laser beam."

The appearance design of this new weapon is simple and cool. The gun body is made of high-strength alloy and covered with a special coating on the surface, which gives it good heat dissipation performance. On the top of the gun body, there is a small crystal core slot for installing the crystal core.

When the crystal core is inserted into the slot, the energy conversion device inside the weapon will automatically start, converting the energy in the crystal core into a laser beam and firing it out through the muzzle.

The laser beam is very powerful and can easily penetrate obstacles such as metal and concrete, causing great damage to the target. At the same time, due to the extremely fast speed of the laser beam, it is almost impossible to avoid, making this weapon an extremely deadly weapon.

"Zombies and mutant plants and animals are constantly upgrading, and their strength is getting stronger. However, the number of people with special abilities among us humans is still relatively small. In order to increase the survival rate of humans, the base has developed this energy gun. In this way, even ordinary people can have a certain combat capability when facing those terrible zombies or mutant plants and animals."

With the introduction of new weapons, the base's defense has been greatly strengthened.

Seeing An Ning's curiosity about these new weapons, Xuanyuan Zunqi took out an energy gun from his waist and handed it to An Ning, saying softly, "Try it!"

An Ning took the energy gun and felt its heavy weight.

She looked at the gun carefully and found that there was a small display screen embedded in the grip of the pistol, which clearly displayed important information such as remaining energy and shooting mode.

After leaving the crowd, An Ning chose a suitable position, raised the energy gun in his hand, and tried to aim at a mutant bird soaring in the air.

She narrowed her eyes, adjusted her breathing, and aimed the gun at the target.

When she gently pulled the trigger, a dazzling blue laser shot out instantly, cutting through the sky like lightning.

The laser beam traveled through the air at an astonishing speed and hit the mutant bird's body accurately.

After being hit by the laser, the mutant bird let out a shrill wail.

Its originally light body suddenly lost balance and fell straight from the air, hitting the ground heavily, raising a cloud of dust.

An Ning raised his eyebrows excitedly, "It's much more powerful than ordinary guns."

Looking at An Ning's appearance, Xuanyuan Zunqi raised the corners of his mouth and explained: "The energy gun is indeed more powerful than ordinary guns. It uses the energy in the crystal core as a power source and can emit powerful laser beams.

This weapon not only has a high rate of fire and high accuracy, but can also penetrate general protective equipment and cause huge damage to the enemy.

However, there are some issues to note when using energy guns.

First, because the energy output of the energy gun is large, continuous shooting may cause the barrel to overheat, affecting its performance or even damaging the gun. Therefore, in combat, the shooting frequency should be properly controlled to leave enough cooling time for the barrel.

Secondly, the energy in the crystal core is not infinite, and once it is exhausted, it cannot be used anymore. Therefore, before a battle, be sure to check the remaining energy of the crystal core and prepare a spare crystal core for timely replacement.

In addition, the effective range of the energy gun is also subject to certain limitations. After a certain distance, the power of the laser will weaken. In actual combat, the energy gun should be used reasonably according to the battlefield situation to give full play to its advantages.

Finally, although the energy gun is powerful, it is not invincible. Some mutants or enemies may have special abilities or defensive means to resist or avoid the attack of the energy gun.

When facing these opponents, we need to combine other tactics and weapons to respond flexibly.”

"However, this is only a low-level energy weapon." Looking at An Ning carefully examining the energy gun, Xuanyuan Zunqi continued, "More advanced energy cannons are more powerful and can even easily destroy a city. However, this weapon also has a fatal flaw, which is that it consumes a large amount of crystal cores as an energy source. Therefore, even if we have the technology and materials to manufacture this weapon, we cannot mass-produce it."

An Ning nodded to show her understanding.

She knew that crystal cores were extremely precious to humans, and currently the only way to obtain crystal cores was to kill mutant creatures.

If energy guns are to be mass-produced, a large supply of crystal cores will be required, which is obviously unrealistic.

At this moment, the soldiers on duty heard the sound of energy gunfire, and someone immediately came over to check the situation.

The soldier saw Xuanyuan Zunqi and immediately saluted him and asked, "Captain Long, what happened just now?"

Xuanyuan Zunqi pointed to the mutant bird corpse on the ground and explained: "It's okay, I was just testing the power of the energy gun."

The soldier looked at the mutant bird's body, confirmed that there was no other danger, and then turned and left.

They understood Xuanyuan Zunqi's special status and would not interfere too much with his behavior. As long as there was no incident that endangered the safety of the base, they would respect Xuanyuan Zunqi's decision.

Xuanyuan Zunqi turned to look at An Ning, his eyes full of questions, and asked softly: "Do you want to try again?"

An Ning shook his head, then handed the energy gun back to Xuanyuan Zunqi.

She secretly sighed in her heart, human wisdom is really endless! The emergence of this weapon will undoubtedly bring more hope to mankind.

With such weapons, the probability of human survival in the end times will be greatly improved.

With the coming of the end of the world, various mutant creatures are becoming more and more powerful.

If humans do not work hard to improve their strength, it will be difficult for them to survive in this desolate world.
