Transmigrator's Guide to Conquering Another World

Chapter 93: Hua Jun's Discovery and... the Soon-to-Depart Caravan (Part 2)


"That's right, our targeted objective is indeed the two-headed bull."

In response to Lin Li's guess, Hua Jun straightforwardly replied:

"The Sealing Talisman, as the name implies, is meant to seal off an area, restricting the target so it cannot escape.

This restriction is actually limited; a Tier One Sealing Talisman is only effective against targets at or below the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, and in some specific situations, it can trap those at the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer.

Maybe in the future, our technology will reach a level where it can trap a Nascent Soul, but for now, thinking about how to capture the two-headed bull is more practical."

Lin Li nodded upon hearing this. He wasn't particularly interested in trapping Nascent Souls, so he spoke up:

"Academician Hua, this five-point-six-phase... it's really a mouthful, let's just call it a Sealing Launcher.

How long before this Sealing Launcher can be deployed in combat?

Also... is it possible to mass-produce the Sealing Talismans?"

There was only just over a month left until the two-headed bull campaign. If the Sealing Launchers couldn't be mass-produced, their priority would be significantly lowered.

An operation of this scale cannot be forcibly postponed because of this one factor.

After all, the more time that passes, the more time the Xiaolianzi Mountain beasts have to recover from their injuries.

The risk of casualties in the troops will increase accordingly.

The rabbits would rather catch fewer bulls than see more sacrifice from their soldiers.

Hua Jun was clearly aware of this as well, and quickly said:

"Captain Lin, the Sealing Launcher requires some technical support from the aviation sector. As far as I know, some of the technical reserves are very advanced.

If technical support can be provided in time, I am confident that I can complete the optimization of the Sealing Launcher before the campaign begins.

Moreover, after our testing, the Sealing Talismans can now be mass-produced, just like the spiritual energy shields."

Lin Li raised his eyebrows and looked at Hua Jun, somewhat surprised as he asked:

"Can this thing really be mass-produced?"

In his view, the Sealing Talisman was a talisman involving the 'space' concept, completely fitting the high and mighty definition.

With the current technological level of the rabbits, understanding such a talisman should be quite difficult.

Just like the Spatial Bag of Wei Mansion, Zeng Gu Cheng's physics team fiddled with it for a long time without figuring out a single hair of it.

Hua Jun seemed to have read Lin Li's thoughts and explained:

"Old Lin, though the Sealing looks fancy, it actually applies spiritual energy restriction through patterns.

The true 'space' concept refers to cutting a specific area from a three-dimensional perspective, which is quite different."

Just as Hua Jun explained.

The Tier One Sealing Talisman is essentially just an air box or air rope capable of 'encapsulating' the target.

It has little to do with silence, division, or sealing nuclear weapons.

After all, it's just Tier One...

If the whole world is compared to a complete jigsaw puzzle, the effect of the Sealing Talisman is like a soda cap placed over a map, unable to affect the map itself.

However, a true space division would require lifting a small piece of the jigsaw, regardless of holding it in hand to play with or discard it freely. This process of 'lifting the piece' is space cutting.

With Hua Jun's explanation, Lin Li understood as well.

He turned his attention to another question:

"Academician Hua, what is the current production capacity of the Sealing Talismans?"

Talking about production capacity, Hua Jun's eyebrows dropped slightly, and he sighed softly:

"Captain Lin, unlike the spiritual energy shield, the Sealing Talismans require five pieces to be effective as one set.

Meaning, for every bull we need to catch, we have to produce five times the number of Sealing Talismans.

Additionally, there are phases like infusing spiritual power..... Before the campaign starts, I can provide a maximum of about 7,500 Sealing Talismans, roughly equating to fifteen hundred sets.

But the base camp has set a minimum target of two thousand bulls, so we'll have to purchase the rest to make up the shortfall.

The somewhat good news is that Tier One Sealing Talismans are quite cheap."

This wasn't Hua Jun comforting Lin Li or finding an excuse for himself.

Due to the high environmental demands for deployment and thus limited effects, Tier One Sealing Talismans have always been low-priced.

A set of five Tier One Sealing Talismans costs about one-fifth the price of a Tier One Body Protection Talisman.

Having grasped the various situations surrounding the Sealing Talismans, Lin Li said to Hua Jun:

"Academician Hua, I will report this matter upward as soon as possible. Leave the technical support to me."

With that said, Lin Li was ready to stand up to see Hua Jun out.

As he was about to leave, the corner of his eye caught sight of another talisman on the table.

He then slapped his forehead: "Oh, I almost forgot, Academician Hua, what's this other talisman for?"

"Oh, you mean this talisman."

Hua Jun hadn't forgotten about it; he picked up the other talisman and explained:

"This is a Tier One Swift Movement Talisman, one of the six Tier One Talismans originally drawn by Wei Yuan.

When activated, it significantly increases a person's movement speed, varying by their cultivation. The higher the cultivation, the greater the increase.

We have just started researching this talisman, and the mass production issue remains unsolved.

However, we have found a general direction."

Lin Li couldn't help but ask, "What direction?"

"Enhancing Weapons — primarily the speed of projectiles and bullets."

Hua Jun looked seriously at Lin Li, his expression increasingly resembling Sun Xiaochuan as he continued:

"This idea was proposed by one of my students — the one who suggested painting the symbols before infusing spiritual power during the spiritual energy shield project. We call him Xiaohai.

This time, he proposed another idea:

Could we attach the Swift Movement Talisman to small projectiles and, through certain technical means, accelerate them during flight?

Like the second ignition of a third-stage rocket engine."

Upon hearing this, Lin Li frowned and said, "Academician Hua, don't missiles also achieve second ignition now?"

Hua Jun shook his head and corrected him, "Old Lin, I'm talking about projectiles, not missiles."

In some respects, Lin Li was actually right.

Currently, technology for second ignition is very mature in the field of medium to long-range missiles across various countries, using principles similar to cold launch.

Even Ah San can achieve this.

After all, most missiles use solid-fuel engines, so achieving second ignition isn't particularly difficult.

However, the core purpose of second or multiple ignitions in missiles is more about reducing launch risk, increasing range, and conserving fuel.

But projectiles differ from missiles.

The second acceleration of projectiles is also a topic of research worldwide, yet there are hardly any breakthrough results in the field.

Compared to secondary ignition in medium to long-range missiles, the purpose of secondary ignition for projectiles isn't to fly further.

It's to evade interception and increase kinetic energy, allowing more mechanical energy to be converted upon explosion.

Ek=(mv^2)/2, a formula even few scholars know.

Currently, aside from tungsten blocks fired by railguns and hypersonic missiles, or conventional medium and small projectiles, the initial speed is at best 1800-2000 meters per second.

The reason they can't speed up is simple:

Projectiles differ from missiles. Currently, materials like n2 can be used for large missile propellants but not for projectile propellants — because projectiles have a barrel pressure limit, exceeding it means only one result... boom!

Therefore, conventional weapons like guns and cannons rely on the gas generated by the combustion of non-metallic powders to function.

Hence, the muzzle velocity of bullets and projectiles won't exceed the gas expansion limit speed.

This leads to an upper limit on projectile initial speed.

It's like throwing a stone; the speed of the stone can't surpass your arm's swinging speed.

Though using new propellants (like liquid propellants) or new launch mechanisms (such as railguns) can partially exceed this limit now,

for traditional projectiles, breaking through the 2000 m/s threshold is hardly possible.

According to Xiaohai's idea,

if we could successfully decipher the Swift Movement Talisman and apply it to projectiles...

Then whether in terms of reducing fuel or increasing kinetic energy, it would undoubtedly be a great boost.

Of course.

This remains a long-term research direction at the moment, still facing many challenges before achieving complete realization.

For example, ballistic calculations in fire control, the median equation set after parabolic changes, etc.....

But as said before:

No matter what, it is a concept with practical potential, just that the path toward it will be difficult.

Additionally, since Hua Jun's team primarily focuses on armor, further research into the Swift Movement Talisman requires the assistance of other weapon experts.

After seeing Hua Jun out,

Lin Li was about to relax when Zhang Guanghua's voice came once again from outside the door:

"Report, the antenna array has been fully calibrated, and a query has been received from the Wei Mansion on whether the convoy is ready to set off?"
