Master of Ten Thousand Foxes-Chapter 210 - 138: The Mask’s Obsession, Failed Design, and a Gun Even Foxes Can Use (Part 2)

"I... won't purposely take you to find her.

"But I can take you back to Fox Mountain... which was Marquis's former sect.

"You can wait for her to return at Fox Mountain.

"If one day we meet her, you may leave.

"Otherwise, searching in this world is like searching for a needle in a haystack, you won't find her."

The mask's expression showed doubt.

It feared Bai Mo would deceive it and forcibly claim it.

Then Bai Mo, sitting on a fishing recliner, crossed his legs.

"Tricking... tricking Immortal Artifacts is beneath me.

"But let's speak frankly, we'll settle the accounts.

"Fox Mountain helps you remove pollution, it's not free.

"You'll need to do something of equal value for Fox Mountain."

The mask trembled slightly.

It sensed that even though this youth is only Sequence Seven, at this moment, sitting in the clouds, he is frank and open-minded, with talents and demeanor resembling those of its old acquaintances!

Buzz...

The space undulated like water, the mask teleported instantly back to Bai Mo's pocket.

"Good, welcome to become... a temporary member of Fox Mountain."

Behind the Fire Toad Balloon, mist rose, and Bai Mo disappeared into it.

As for the Fire Toad Balloon, it re-accelerated with a jet stream, "whoosh whoosh" flying back to the skies above West Ridge Small Volcano.

...

Night fell.

Inside Fox Mountain's dormitory hall, it was already pitch black, the eyes of the fox apprentices flickered with dark red light, like stars in the night sky.

Most of the brothers crowded with the master, looking at the scene in midair, watching Little Volcano Military Factory, focusing on their industry development.

Only Bai Liandan'Er, in the corner of the hall, held the mask the master had just brought back, soaking it in a water basin, scrubbing its mud with a brush.

"Ying ying ying!

"Aoo aoo aoo!"

While scrubbing, Bai Liandan'Er babbled in fox language.

It had listened to the master talk about the mask and didn't quite understand... why must this thing find Marquis Qing Yue? Staying at Fox Mountain wouldn't be good enough? Fox Mountain is the best in the world!

But then it suddenly thought, if one day it lost its master and could never see its master again, what sort of mood would it be in?

It might go mad, searching everywhere, right?

Thinking of this, it suddenly felt deep sympathy for the mask.

Scrub scrub scrub!

Quickly, it cleaned the mud off the mask, wiped it dry with a towel, and saw a mournful expression revealing on the mask, seemingly still longing.

Bai Liandan'Er held the mask.

"Aoo aoo aoo! Ying ying aoo aoo!"

...take you to cloud factory together!

Then it thought, but the mask probably doesn't understand such advanced fox language... speaking was futile.

It straightforwardly hugged the mask, ran to the bed, found a spot, and crowded with its brothers, together watching the cloud factory.

Tonight's Fox Mountain snack was golden chestnuts!

Some foxes grabbed the chestnuts with their claws, some had peeled the chestnuts, slowly gnawing, slowly eating.

While gnawing, watching the cloud factory scene in the air, it was already early morning.

In the control room, a white-haired old man yawned frequently.

The room full of engineers, graduate students, doctoral students, whether standing or sitting, were sprawled all over, even with dark circles, they were barely hanging on.

Only Tie Shiba, despite pulling an all-nighter, remained energetic, grinning with large white teeth, holding two newly test-produced bullet heads in his hand.

"Haha, thank you, Professor Wang.

"It's done!

"It really worked!"

The bullet heads were fiery red, about the size of a human pinky finger, much longer than ordinary bullets. Their surface was engraved with intricate patterns. If you looked closely, you could even see light flowing within the patterns.

Tie Shiba glanced at the room full of sprawled people, feeling slightly disheartened.

At such an important moment, no one is there to celebrate with him?

...

Fox Mountain, inside the dormitory hall.

Bai Mo looked at the scene in midair, stared at the bullet for a moment... although he didn't understand Artifact Refining, he had a gut instinct that ordinary Sequence Nine couldn't withstand that bullet, it would pierce defenses in one shot!

"If this thing could be mass-produced, it would be quite good."

A group of fox apprentices, eyes gleaming, began to cheer and celebrate!

"Aoo aoo aoo!"

"Ying ying ying!"

"Ying ying ying!"

...The military factory Fox Mountain invested in, began to have output!

Seeing in the scene, Tie Shiba was actually not tired, but grabbed a few casings, loaded the primer inside, then loaded the bullet head inside.

"I'll give it a test shot.

"Professor Wang, where is the gun you designed?"

Professor Wang, too tired, pointed to the pile of briefcases nearby.

Tie Shiba opened one, the thick black gun inside immediately dazzled the eyes of the foxes watching the livestream in the dormitory hall!

This gun is so cool, they also want it!

Unfortunately...

"Aoo."

"Ying."

Their fox claws are short and chubby, even if they get the gun, they can't use it.

You can see Tie Shiba opening one suitcase after another, picking and choosing.

Each gun in the cases has a different shape, all looking quite cool, but none of them are usable.

"Awoo."

"Whimper."

You see on the screen, Tie Shiba opens another small box.

"Awoo?"

The dormitory hall is packed with foxes, all suddenly staring wide-eyed at the screen.

The gun in this little box has a sleek body, a thick barrel, and sharp lines. It looks powerful at a glance!

The key point is... this gun's grip and trigger are very small.

White Claw nestles in the master's arms, looks at the gun on the screen, then at its own paws, and then looks up at the master.

"Whimper whimper whimper!"

Black Gloves squeezes next to the master's shoulder, waving its black front paw to show the master.

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

Big and Small Eyes snuggles on the master's other shoulder, hugging the master's arm, swaying back and forth.

"Whimper whimper whimper!"

The foxes can use that gun!

They all want that gun!

Bai Mo was also dumbfounded... That gun, with that strange grip and trigger size, what's going on?

...

Tie Shiba was also dumbfounded...

"This gun, with that strange grip and trigger size, what's going on?

"Is this a joke?

"Who designed this?"

All the graduate and doctoral students in the room came to their senses and looked at the strange-shaped gun in Tie Shiba's hand.

A chubby female graduate student, trembling, raised her hand.

"I... I designed it..."

Tie Shiba frowned.

"This grip and trigger..."

The chubby girl, Yue Xiaosu, spoke up weakly to explain.

"Uh... I... I designed it based on my own hand shape..."

Everyone turned their gaze toward the hand she raised.

You can see the hand is white, chubby, with short fingers and a thick palm... it really suits the gun's strange grip and trigger size perfectly!

The control room fell into silence.

Everyone was speechless, not knowing what to say.

...

On Fox Mountain, Bai Mo's face was full of embarrassment.

"Do you want that gun?

"But you see, for the military factory, that's a failed design. It won't go into mass production, there's only that one."

The foxes all shook their heads persistently.

"Awoo awoo awoo!"

"Whimper whimper whimper!"

"Whimper whimper whimper!"

Bai Mo thought for a while and shook his head.

"Although there's a design flaw, it's their prototype gun, maybe they want to keep it for research..."

"Awoo?"

"Whimper?"

The foxes opened their mouths, full of disappointment.

On the screen, Professor Wang stood up, looking impatient, and snatched the failed design gun, throwing it out the control room door, speaking harshly.

"Yue Xiaosu, don't get involved in such blunders in the future!"

...

On Fox Mountain, Bai Mo and his disciples fell into silence.

They threw it away?

That gun... they didn't want it?

Bai Mo smirked and looked at the disciple next to him.

"Big and Small Eyes, put on the invisibility cloak and go fetch it back."

Although it's useless to bring it back, it could serve as a toy for the disciples, which is also good.

"Awoo!"

Big and Small Eyes immediately jumped up and ran to the cabinet beside the hall to look for the invisibility cloak.

...

On the top of Little Volcano, in the control room, Tie Shiba was already holding a successfully designed gun, loading bullets into it.

Yue Xiaosu was sitting uneasily, looking full of grievance, occasionally glancing at the door, looking at her gun thrown far away.

She wanted to go pick it up but didn't dare!

Seeing the boss's darkened face, she felt even more aggrieved, almost on the verge of tears.

Looking at her gun outside the door, she decided to sneak out and pick it up later.

But... she suddenly saw the gun disappear!

"Ah?"

She exclaimed, tears instantly gushing out.

In the control room, Professor Wang glared at Yue Xiaosu, shouting angrily.

"What the hell are you up to now?"
