The drone buzzed and circled in the air several times, made a few deft maneuvers, and then dropped a grenade on the white wasteland.
"boom!"
As the explosion sounded, a burst of fire suddenly erupted on the wasteland, and some flying sand was blown up along with a slight air wave.
After the smoke cleared, a small sand pit appeared in the open space.
All images of the explosion were transmitted through the drone's camera to the display screen of the controller in Yang Jie's hand.
The sound of explosions in the distance entered the car through the glass. Ryan silently stared at the display screen on the controller in Yang Jie's hand without speaking.
He was already very familiar with the integrated surveillance and combat drone when he was an officer in Lone Star. After all, it was the standard equipment of the "Land Knight" of Lone Star's exoskeleton armored force.
As a former land knight flag-bearer, Ryan is very aware of how useful this thing is.
However, Lone Star’s integrated surveillance and combat drone is a mass-produced military product with smooth and beautiful aerodynamic shape; its body is strong and durable; and the ammunition it throws is also specially equipped.
And what does Yang Jie’s drone look like?
The tattered fuselage, the welded fuselage shell even shook a little, and the unsightly modified design left the grenade hanging dangling underneath.
Oh, yes, and that grenade, even the ammunition is modified, and it can only hold one round!
But just such a piece of junk that seems to be full of "make do" can actually exert the energy efficiency of an integrated surveillance and combat drone. Although this modified drone is not comparable to Lone Star's professional drones from any angle, it does work.
The Akainu team is a wasteland walker, not an army. For them, it is enough if they can be used, and Ryan does not expect too much.
Besides, how much does such a drone cost? Less than ten old Hong Kong silver coins, the price is only one-twentieth of the Lone Star military version.
At the beginning, Ryan didn't think Yang Jie could really make any changes. He didn't even think Yang Jie could really completely repair the drone.
After all, cars and drones are two completely different things. Ryan just didn't want to dampen Yang Jie's enthusiasm for work. He didn't spend more money anyway, so he just let him play for fun instead.
Unexpectedly, Yang Jie really came up with something good for the Akainu team.
The drone returned and slowly landed on the roof of the car.
Ryan looked at Yang Jie who picked up the drone from the roof of the car, pondered for a moment and then said:
"wrench."
After Ryan greeted Yang Jie, he said half emotionally and half jokingly to the young man who turned around:
"I thought I had already underestimated you, but I didn't expect you to surprise me.
It seems that I am indeed lucky to be able to hire you for this little money. "
Yang Jie chuckled and shook his head, put the drone back into his backpack, and then said:
“If you hadn’t rescued me, I would have been a pile of meat by now.
If you really feel that the money is insufficient, then give me a salary increase. "
After hearing Yang Jie's joke, Ryan also laughed.
"Okay, let's talk about this later.
Your drone looks fine, let's use it to track the gang. "
As he spoke, Ryan turned his attention to Yang Jie's waist.
On the side of Yang Jie's tactical carrying gear was a thick "grenade launcher".
After experiencing the shock of the modified drone, Ryan began to become curious about Yang Jie's "homemade grenade gun."
"We still have some time, why don't you try the homemade transmitter on your waist?"
Yang Jie hesitated.
It's not that he doesn't want to give it a try. Although it has been tested in the Quanzhen simulation, the Quanzhen simulation is just a simulation after all, and it is definitely different from the real feeling of grenades.
But when he came out in a hurry this time, Yang Jie didn't modify many grenades himself. He had twelve timed grenades and four smoke grenades - one of which was used by Rock's hand.
Yang Jie was still hesitating, but Luo Ke had already stepped forward to persuade:
"Oh, try it, try it.
To be honest, I'm really curious about whether this thing can be played out. "
Seeing that the four people were focusing on his waist, Yang Jie couldn't resist Rock and took out the launcher from the holster.
"Come on, come on, play with me."
Rock said, taking the grenade launcher handed over by Yang Jie, observing it carefully like a child receiving a gift, and then said:
"I've never played with a grenade."
Ah.
Yang Jie sneered in his heart and glanced at Luo Ke.
I don’t know who said “What’s so good about a few broken guns” two days ago.
He took out a modified grenade from the car, pulled down the grenade safety catch, and Yang Jie stuffed it into the launch tube that was modified from a cylinder.
"The recoil is not small, you have to be mentally prepared."
Although the high and low pressure firing principle of the low-velocity grenade will reduce the recoil to a certain extent, this is a big guy with a caliber of 80mm, which is fully twice as thick as the M79, and the recoil is still very strong.
Rock nodded, pressed the launcher against his shoulder, and pulled the trigger toward the open space in the distance——
"Bang!"
The sound of the grenade launcher is not loud, and is even a little crisp.
The firing pin hits the primer, igniting the flaky nitroglycerin propellant in the high-pressure chamber. The resulting airflow then pours into the low-pressure chamber through the connecting hole, pushing the grenade out of the shell and flying outward.
At the same time, the handle loses the restraint of the cartridge case and separates from the projectile body, and the delay fuse starts working, entering the explosion countdown.
"boom!"
"Yo ho!"
The strong explosion made Rock scream excitedly. Looking at the smoke from the explosion in the distance, Rock took a simple measurement.
“It must be more than 150 meters, right?
Okay, wrench!
From now on, if there are any enemies that cannot be dealt with, they will be blown up directly. "
"But there is no crosshair or ruler."
Ivan crossed his arms and asked in confusion:
"Can you shoot accurately?"
"Oh, what are you afraid of, bear."
Before Yang Jie could explain, Luo Ke retorted. He waved his hand and said nonchalantly:
"Don't worry about those details. Even if this thing is really inaccurate, it's still good to use firepower to suppress it."
Returning the grenade launcher to Yang Jie, Rock continued:
"Besides, you can't shoot accurately at a distance. How can you miss if you shoot straight forty or fifty meters? When the time comes, a grenade will pass by. Let's see who can withstand it."
Ryan stood aside and nodded slightly.
The lack of heavy firepower has always been a common problem of the Akainu team, or all wasteland walkers.
Although the Old Port is known as a "free trade market" and anything can be bought and sold here, in fact, such a promise is only valid for various forces.
On the retail side, weapons are very strictly controlled, especially heavy firepower.
Not to mention grenade launchers, even heavy machine guns and large-caliber anti-materiel rifles are very difficult for ordinary people to buy and sell in the Old Port.
Although there is also heavy firepower flowing out on the black market, the quality is either extremely poor or the price is high, with little purchase value.
In any case, Yang Jie's grenade launcher provides extremely precious heavy firepower to the Akainu team. Even if it is inaccurate, it is still useful to the Akainu team.
What's more, as Rock said, even if I can't hit you accurately from a long distance, can I still not hit you with a direct shot at close range?
Rubbing his chin, Ryan squinted at the noisy Bear and Rock, thinking about how to use this launcher in tactics.
"Wrench, what's wrong with you?"
While Ryan was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Yang Jie swaying and then holding on to the car, looking a little unhappy.
"it's okay no problem."
After a while, Yang Jie seemed to feel better. He stood up straight and waved his hands.
"I guess it's because I didn't get any rest last night, so I feel a little uncomfortable. I should get a lot better if I get some sleep."
