It was more like the claws of other creatures, five fingers, three times the size of the soles of his feet, stepping into the soft earth for a dozen centimeters. When you are full of strength, you may not have time to lift your feet completely, and there are long furrows in front of the footprints that have been ploughed out by claws.

"What kind of monster is he at this time, is he really one of Yeterin's men?" Woolf muttered to herself as she undressed and pulled out the shrapnel embedded in her body. This footprint reminded him of a surgical development that existed in the family database, one of the most cutting-edge surgical applications. There are colorful pictures on it to complement the introduction, and when the development is completed, the human foot should be in that state.

This type of surgical development is called scaling, and depending on the strength and degree of the surgeon, a layer of fine black scales grows over a period of time, and the joints such as the hands and feet are covered with large corneum due to secretions from the body. At this time, both strength and defense will be increased several times. According to the range of judgments provided in the database, the minimum strength of the black scales and cuticles is comparable to that of fine steel alloys. The object of direct comparison in the empire is the black iron steel plate welded on the recolumn.

The standard firecracker with a standard caliber of platinum bullets could not penetrate the rearranged black iron steel plates. And that black scale and cuticle have the same defenses, and can surpass them. Unless it's a blue-silver bullet, or a heavy-fire platinum weapon, it's hard to damage it.

The risk and difficulty of surgical development with such defense and power are of course directly proportional to it. The information on the database also introduces that there are dozens of surgical development items that are used to achieve local scaling of the body, or the preparation and strengthening of the body in advance. As with Woolf's ongoing leg surgery, the leg bones must be strengthened after the muscle fibers spiral.

Scaling can be said to be something that is closely linked to the overall quality of the body, and cannot be extracted alone. If you list scaling on a blank sheet of paper as the ultimate goal, you can rely on its extension to prepare for a complex tree-like diagram. In Webley, Woolf didn't know many people with this ability. Almost all of these people are middle and high-level in the family and the company, and their strength and experience are all existences that he must look up to.

After all, Woolf knew in his heart that the surgical development he was now working on was a separate method of dissecting and improving on the dendrogram of scaling. Not only him, but most of the people who have started to get in touch with the second depth of surgery have made scaling their ultimate goal.

Because once the scaling of the operation is completed, it represents not only the improvement of one's own strength, but also strength, speed and reflexes, these three basic abilities aside. Being able to ignore most ordinary bullets and platinum bullets within a certain range is the dream of most surgeons. In addition, it can be equipped with basic armor, steel steam machines specially developed and manufactured for surgeons, and various mid-to-high-grade pneumatic weapons, which further improves the combat effectiveness of scaly surgeons on another level.

Woolf remembers what her boss had said. When he was still part of the family's mobile unit, he had encountered an enemy who had completed the development of scales. At the time, like Woolf, they mostly hovered in the late stage of the second stage. Several teams of more than 100 people besieged one person, and in the end, of course, the enemy was killed, but most of them themselves could not go back.

"Ordinary weapons are useless at all, only blue and silver bullets blast through the black-scaled body. But when you go out on a mission, where will you bring how many blue and silver bullets, except for some special missions and regions, platinum bullets are our standard. The boss's face was full of memories at that time, "At that time, there was no strong support from the family, and in the end, I still relied on the number of bullets to kill that person." The firepower of the heavy machine gun can barely damage it, and ordinary standard weapons can only slowly superimpose the impact force on the bullet. ”

"More than 100 people, a few heavy machine guns, and quite a few rapid-fire machine guns, all aimed at one person. At that time, the people around us died one by one, and we knew that we would definitely not be able to escape, so we had to bite the bullet. But the bullet hit the man in the early stage and didn't show any damage at all, except for the man's clothes to shreds, it seemed to have no effect. And it was true, until the man died, there were hardly any visible wounds on his body, at most the black scales fell from a dozen pieces. The area of those black scales, the largest is like our thumb nails, what kind of injury do you say?" Woolf's boss shook his head and sighed, now that he thought about it, the more he felt that he could survive, it was also luck.

He was using a standard firecracker, and in the man's opinion, there was really no threat. The men in the team who used heavy machine guns and rapid-fire machine guns were changed several times during the battle. Except for a few who survived in the last round, the first few batches all died.

"And the last man is 、、、," Woolf asked, asking.

"How did you die in the end?" asked her boss, and Woolf nodded.

The boss smiled at this time, and the expression on his face was indistinct: "Shocked to death." The boss thought for a moment and thought that this description was probably reasonable, "The bullet can't break through the man's defense, but the impact above is still there." You can use a standard firearm to hit the steel plate, and the kinetic energy on it is amazing. The enemy's corpse was finally taken back by the family for autopsy, don't look at his surface is completely complete, and the organs, muscles, and blood vessels inside are almost all broken. Especially the part of his body, cut open his stomach, and what flowed out of it was blood with fragments of organs. The bones are also covered with cracks. It must have been the result of the impact of the bullet and the high pressure inside the body. ”

"It's not impossible to deal with such an enemy, it's just that it depends on the number of piles. It's just that the price to pay is too great. The boss finally said, "That black scale is their advantage, and it is also their most fatal flaw." Because it is too stiff, it can only be described as 'stiff', and it lacks the necessary flexibility. But don't worry now, there aren't many times in the family's mission that there are such information errors. If there is such a powerful enemy in the mission, the team will usually carry a vehicle-mounted aviation cannon, and the firepower of such a violent guy can completely eat such a person. ”

At that time, Woolf was still a young man who had just entered the Webley family organization, and she had no real sense of what her boss said. With the improvement of strength, when Würth gradually began to develop surgery, he had a new understanding of the power of the black scales.

"Maybe I'm wrong. Woolf followed the footprint all the way back, thinking to herself, "Why did the man run when the surgery had been developed to the point where black scales could be locally grown?"

Woolf couldn't figure this out. As far as the hundreds of people there are on the highway, their strength and weapon configuration are not up to par. If that man had the idea of killing them, Woolf would never have been lucky enough to survive.

Maybe it's not us who is afraid, but just Webley behind us, who doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. Back on the highway, Woolf thought only of this possibility. With such strength, Woolf thinks that he can't deal with it, but if it rises to the power of the entire Webley Company, it can only be regarded as a little troublesome.

Everyone watched Woolf, covered in blood, come back, but they didn't dare to speak.

Tucking the tattered clothes back into the limousine, Woolf walked over to Jetlin's car and stood there for a few seconds. But he didn't get the result he wanted, and he couldn't see anything on Ye Jielin's face, an indifferent face.

Delynn and Vogue then walked up to greet Woolf and got into the two limousines that were on the road again.

"Isn't it Jetlin's men?" Woolf sat in the limousine, uncertain. Del Lin behind him was also in the same mood, the blood on the ground that had not been cleaned up, and the bullet craters all over the more than ten meters told her that Ye Jielin didn't seem to stop there.

"But just like that, we don't have to worry about anything. Dellin said with a lighthearted smile, and Vogue and Lopp nodded, "I thought I could force him to give up his candidacy for the heir, but now there is no such option." ”

The two bodies were loaded up and detailed photographs were taken in advance, along with the series of footprints, and Woolf also reminded them to take pictures and take samples.

The limousine was crammed with people, and the rest of the personnel had to huddle on top of the delivery truck and return to the family headquarters.

Business in the Dark World is getting better by the day, and Dyer and Waters have been working hard lately on orders coming and going. Twice the wages brought about the full operation of the factory, and as time went on, as these workers became familiar with the work, the output and efficiency became better and better.

"It is worthy of the complete production line of Webley Arms Company, and the quality can still be guaranteed under such high-intensity pressing production. Dyer opened a piece of oil-wrapped paper and picked up one for inspection, the bullet reflecting a new glow in the light.

"Indeed, now the yield and quality can still be guaranteed. But I don't think it won't be long before these factories will no longer be able to satisfy us as our business grows bigger and bigger in the dark world. Waters said on the side, "Deputy Commander, our dozen or so factories are indeed too many in the eyes of ordinary people, but in front of the strength that really has some foundation, there is nothing." I think the follow-up development should be advanced, and we don't have time to compete with those old forces now, so we can only fight for numbers in a short time. ”
