Super Seminary: Blooming All the Way

When the world was born, the heat of the Fire Kingdom and the ice of the Mist Kingdom interacted, and life was born. The ruler of this land is the fire giant Surtur, who is the enemy of the Asgardian gods. When Ragnarok comes, he will cross the rainbow bridge to attack Asgard.

Tony Stark is full of enthusiasm and excitement about exploring the new world, and even feels that he is more excited than Columbus who discovered the New World! Columbus only discovered part of the earth, and now, mankind is about to take the first step in interstellar exploration!

But before that, the affairs of the human empire must be dealt with first. Lucifer told him that the number of Hulk warriors is limited, and the human empire cannot rely entirely on them to fight, although they are invincible on the battlefield. However, due to the limited number, over-reliance on Hulk warriors will seriously restrict the military strength of the human empire.

Therefore, as the Emperor, Lucifer hopes that Tony Stark can develop weapons and equipment that can be used by mortals, such as the Master Chief's power armor and the Astra Militarum's laser guns.

However, Tony Stark objected to Lucifer's desire to make laser guns the primary weapon of the mortal army.

"It's not feasible to rely solely on the beam weapons you mentioned. The smoke in a complex battlefield environment has a fatal effect on the beam." Tony Stark rolled his eyes and said.

Live ammunition weapons are hardly hindered by chemical smoke, natural fog or even blizzards. The attenuation of beam power is closely related to factors such as wavelength, smoke particle radius, transmission distance, etc., following the Albert-Beer law. If there is thick fog or heavy rain/snowfall in the combat area, it will affect the transmission power of laser weapons, and may also cause damage to precision optical components due to condensation or circuit failure in low temperatures.

All the factors that affect electronic equipment will also cause problems for the beam gun and its accompanying high-energy battery pack.

"Laser weapons usually use solid-state lasers, whose energy source is presumably current-driven semiconductor light-emitting technology."

Tony Stark went on to explain that his palm energy cannon and chest energy cannon are based on similar principles.

"It cannot operate out of nothing. In order to extend its life and maintain its performance, it usually needs to be combined with a dedicated drive circuit, including an APC circuit for current stabilization control, an automatic power control circuit, and other components. Considering the power of the weapon, it must include high-efficiency power components."

"But we lack the technology to generate EMPs affordably and efficiently, unless you provide the technical support."

Additionally, beam weapons lack the stopping power of traditional live ammunition weapons.

For human-sized targets with less than light protection, this shortcoming can be compensated by using a high-output beam to instantly vaporize part of the limbs.

However, once encountering orcs or enemies of the same size, the lack of kinetic weapons' stopping power will bring great danger. The user cannot incapacitate the enemy through long-range interception or frontal shooting, creating chaos to stop the enemy's charge - a tactic commonly used by orcs, nor can he count on close-range shooting to stop the enemy and buy time for himself.

This will have a huge impact on both morale and tactics, especially when ordinary soldiers are facing enemies that are several times their size and number.

Faced with Tony Stark's in-depth analysis, Lucifer fell into deep thought.

Is that so? Why do the Taotie civilizations in the Super Seminary use energy weapons?

Although the Taotie civilization relies on more advanced stellar energy collection technology and is even driven by dark energy, it is not affected by most energy consumption factors.

Next, Lucifer thought of electromagnetic kinetic weapons, but was quickly rejected by Tony Stark.

Electromagnetic kinetic weapons are limited by size and weight. Even Tony Stark, who has developed a super-electromagnetic gun, cannot shrink it to the size of a cheap electromagnetic rifle like the one in the StarCraft game.

This technological gap would be worse than letting Tony Stark directly research energy rapid-fire weapons, because under the same size, energy rapid-fire weapons have advantages in power, speed and trajectory.

"So, my suggestion is to use live ammunition weapons as the main weapon and energy weapons as the auxiliary weapon."

Tony Stark suggested.

"No problem. The limitations of energy weapons you mentioned can be solved with magic."

Lucifer responded to him.

"Magic?"

Tony Stark was stunned and remembered the mysterious machine soul.

"Yes, magic. It makes beam weapons unaffected by the environment."

Lucifer smiled.

"In that case, the advantage of beam weapons would be too great."

Tony Stark's eyes lit up. If he could really do it, he could abandon the super-electromagnetic rifle plan and focus on developing energy rapid-fire weapons.

"Also, we have a controlled cold nuclear fusion reactor. Soldiers don't need to carry too many energy batteries. One or two Ark reactors can allow a soldier to fight a war. At a critical moment, the reactor can be thrown out as a bomb..."

Lucifer smiled and continued.

Ordinary military personnel would carry two miniature nuclear bombs, or more.

“That’s too scary.”

Tony Stark joked that fortunately he had upgraded the Ark reactor, which was now a new type of elemental reactor. Even if it exploded, it would not cause nuclear pollution, and its energy output was stronger.

A new type of elemental reactor is enough to support beam weapon launches tens of thousands of times. What needs to be considered at that time may be the wear and tear of the beam gun itself.

For weapons with unlimited ammunition, durability becomes the key.

He needs to design a beam gun that can withstand tens of thousands of firings before breaking down, or a beam gun that is close to this upper limit?

"We also have sound-absorbing steel that can withstand the wear and tear of beam weapons. Just a little bit of it can make the components of beam weapons stronger than you think."

Lucifer saw through Tony Stark's thoughts and said to him.

"Yes, and sound-absorbing steel..."

Tony Stark couldn't wait to get back to researching beam weapons.

Lucifer has told him about magic, which is actually magic written by Lucifer using his own power, and anyone who uses it is borrowing his power to achieve the "result".

As for the power armor of ordinary armies, isn't Tony Stark's own Iron Man suit the best template?

However, Lucifer didn't expect that Tony Stark would give him a big surprise!

In just ten days, Tony Stark developed a usable beam weapon.

"How powerful is it?"

Lucifer is more concerned about this issue.

"Very good, it can penetrate even tank-level armor with one strike."

Tony Stark said confidently.

"It works by firing a highly focused, bright beam of high energy. When the beam hits the target, it causes a very rapid temperature change on the surface, triggering a small explosion that causes vapor damage."
