Chapter 29 The Boiling Gang

Chapter 29: Chapter 29 The Boiling Gang

Mountain Eagle spent nearly 50 days scouring almost all the raw material markets around Bangkok and various universities...

It cost nearly 1.2 million Thai Baht to fill the Sergeant’s raw material space.

The so-called raw materials are actually various metal powders, polymer granules, and some chemical and rare metal materials.

These are all legal and marketable items, and with a substantial amount of money on hand, Mountain Eagle did not encounter too many obstacles, except taking some time to figure out the sales channels.

The advantage of filling the Sergeant System’s raw material space is that, for a long time to come, he will not need to resupply unless he participates in high-intensity warfare that consumes a lot of ammunition and equipment.

When Mountain Eagle was in China, he had no need or motivation to manufacture equipment, and he only managed to purchase some raw materials in the rush after the incident.

Now it’s different, with external drivers, Mountain Eagle began to try to fully tap the potential of the Sergeant System...

First is weaponry...

After spending some time in Thailand, Mountain Eagle realized that this cheerful and optimistic tourist country actually has the highest gun ownership rate in Southeast Asia.

As long as you have a gun license, you can openly purchase firearms, and Blood Fox arranged a fully documented identity for him.

Of course, registered guns cannot be used for "work," but that’s not important, what he needs is a weapon source that he can clearly explain.

At the same time, using legal weapons for different purposes than those manufactured by the system allows him to avoid many troubles from the authorities on certain occasions.

So, while procuring raw materials, Mountain Eagle visited a few gun shops and chose M1911 and AK105, two models he was familiar with, as his main weapons.

Of course, the actual purchase would have to wait until he got to Kamui...

Blood Fox said that Mi Lu runs a shooting range, so he definitely has the right channels.

But before that, Mountain Eagle activated the data for the Glock 40 MOS and the AK105 (Zeningte) rifles with two kilograms and five kilograms of gold, respectively...

And he made one of each, a perfectly tailored product according to his own condition, as a backup weapon, ready to be used at any time when needed.

Compared to the Ruger Silent Pistol Mountain Eagle used before, the Glock 40, which uses 10mm AUTO rounds, is undoubtedly many times more powerful.

Mountain Eagle chose the Glock 40 firstly because he was more familiar with the Glock series, and also for balancing stopping power and magazine capacity...

The 10mm AUTO round is excessively powerful for the human body, and it has greater recoil, making it harder to control.

But recoil is not a problem for the large and strong Mountain Eagle, even using the Glock 40 would make him feel more comfortable...

This gun’s standard 15+1 capacity or even 22+1 with an extended magazine is also a major highlight...

Paired with the Ruger Silent Pistol, which has a magazine capacity of only 7+1 rounds, it allows Mountain Eagle to gain the upper hand in most confined environments.

Choosing the AK105, rather than other more well-known models, is mainly because he spent most of his time off work in St. Petersburg practicing with the AK105...

Mountain Eagle is skilled with other guns too, but the AK105 is the one he’s used the most both in virtual training and real-world practice.

Due to certain restrictions, finding finely crafted NATO firearms that he could use anytime in St. Petersburg was somewhat difficult, and the gas blowback from some rifles always felt a bit uncomfortable to him.

Many people like to compare the AK series with the AR series of automatic rifles, debating reliability, recoil, power, precision...

In fact, there is no need for such debates; just try them, and choosing the one that feels most comfortable to shoot will most likely be the right choice.

Once a person finds the right gun, issues such as precision and power are no longer up for discussion!

Although the 5.45 caliber of the AK105 limits its power and range to a certain extent, the guns produced by the Sergeant System are absolutely reliable in quality and precision...

For Mountain Eagle, as long as he figured something out with the bullets, a 300-meter precision range was more than enough for hitting any Soft Target.

Compared to the weapons, those little gadgets that could be dubbed as combat multipliers were not as eye-catching.

Take the Hummingbird Kit, for example; unless you tried it for yourself, you would never realize that what looked like ordinary tactical sunglasses could actually have such functions.

Now that all the raw materials were ready, Mountain Eagle still had 11 kilograms of Gold, which he used during his evening rest to activate the data for the flexible exoskeleton and produce the finished product...

The flexible exoskeleton wasn’t as sci-fi as its name suggested; it looked more like sports bandages...

The patches of the flexible exoskeleton, 4 centimeters wide and 1.5 millimeters thick, were split into many sections...

Ankles, calves, thighs, waist, back, shoulders, upper arms, forearms...

Mountain Eagle wrapped these thin patches around his ankles and then up the outside of his calves, quickly completing the equipage...

There was a thin structure at the connecting points of these different parts, linking them together, providing ample protection to the human body without being noticeable under long-sleeved clothing.

The function of this passive flexible exoskeleton was not bulletproof and could not increase one’s physical strength to allow for flying or running up walls.

It used the carrying capacity of the exoskeleton to provide extra loading capacity for the human body...

For example, Mountain Eagle’s past limit was carrying a load of 80 kilograms for armed cross-country movement, but now this weight could more than double.

More importantly, with the protection of the flexible exoskeleton, impacts like jumping from heights and sudden external pressures could be mostly absorbed.

The most direct example was that if Mountain Eagle had the exoskeleton before, jumping from the second floor of Old Jin’s White House wouldn’t have aggravated his injuries.

The greater function of absorbing reactionary forces was not just protection but also to allow the user to unleash their physical striking power to a greater extent.

Boxers can throw real power punches with boxing gloves, not because they lack strength without them, but without gloves to absorb the shock, boxers would hurt themselves as they hit their opponent.

Humans instinctively avoid hurting themselves, so without gloves, boxers can’t deliver power punches.

But for Mountain Eagle now, the greatest use of the flexible exoskeleton was to provide ample protection for his healing right leg, allowing him to walk without crutches.

Although the ankle was still stiff at the moment, that was an issue of post-surgery recovery; given enough time, he could return to his peak condition.

After trying on the flexible exoskeleton, Mountain Eagle felt extremely good...

The exoskeleton was custom-tailored and fitting perfectly to his needs, and best of all, it was completely unobtrusive and nearly invisible if you didn’t pay close attention due to its skin-like color.

Mountain Eagle delightedly paced around the balcony and the room for a few loops, then laid down on the bed with a contented mood and fell into a deep sleep...

He planned to start increasing his rehabilitation training the next day and aimed to regain his mobility in a month, returning to his best condition.

..............

While Mountain Eagle was pleasantly dreaming, a bounty worth 5 million US Dollars started to be outsourced layer by layer within Thailand...

The distribution channels for information in the Underworld were Middlemen, who received the bounty notice and then passed on the information to the gang or organization they knew...

These gangs or organizations would then notify their little leaders, who would in turn inform the lower-ranking members to be on the lookout.

A bounty of 5 million, after passing through various levels, would leave only 50,000 US Dollars for the bottom tier.

Even if the underling completed the bounty, they wouldn’t get the full 50,000 because the money launderer would take a minimum 30% service fee.

This wasn’t something the lower ranks could just refuse because the big shots above had to launder the money thoroughly before using it.

However, even if it was just 35,000 US Dollars, which is over 1.2 million Thai Baht, it was enough to drive the low-level members of the Thai gangs mad...
