As soon as the elevator reached the bottom floor, we separated, with my sisters going to continue their work, while I headed to my room to remove my armor again. I was leaving my room when I felt the familiar sensation that corresponded with Abi leveling up again. I took out my phone and looked at the time, realizing that it had been almost an hour and forty-five minutes since I had seen Abi. She said it would be an hour or so until she leveled, so I must have been using quite a bit of mana.
I put my phone away and turned to my left, walking towards Mason’s room. I knocked on the door and waited for him to open the door.
[Where are you?] I sent to him.
[At the firing range, why?]
[Just making sure you haven’t blown yourself up yet, ] I sent with a chuckle. [Where is the firing range, anyways?]
[Gimme a minute and I’ll show you.]
[Alright, cool. I’m outside your room right now. I figured you’d be in there.]
[I’ve been bouncing back and forth between the firing range and my room while I work on this. Be right there, ] he finished.
He teleported in the hall in front of me, and as soon as I saw the state he was in and what he was carrying, I burst out laughing. He had oil or grease smudges everywhere and was carrying a minigun that had a strap going around his neck. It looked a lot smaller than I was expecting one to look, but it was clearly a minigun.
“What are you laughing about?”
“When was the last time you looked in the mirror?” I asked, still chuckling.
“What, that bad?”
I nodded. “You look like a little kid that got into some black paint.”
“Ehh, couldn’t be helped. This thing requires a lot of grease to keep everything running smoothly and preventing any jams,” he answered, lifting it up a little.
“You look like you’re wearing more grease than is probably in that,” I replied. “Nah, the main reason I was laughing is because I knew you would build a minigun or some other big nasty gun. Why is it so small, anyways? I was expecting it to be quite a bit bigger.”
“Hell yeah I’m going to use something like this. I’m not going to mess with some dinky little popgun. It looks smaller than you think because Scyftan technology is a lot further ahead, so they’re able to make components a lot smaller. The de-linker is the same size, but the motor is a lot smaller, and so are the rest of the electronics for safety systems and the fire rate controls.”
“What about power? I know they need electricity to function, and how are you going to carry the ammo with the insane firerates?”
“I don’t have either of those on me. Follow me and I’ll show you it in action.”
He led me to the lobby where we went down another hallway I had never been down. It was a five minute walk before we finally arrived. As soon as he opened the door, we were buffeted by the sound of a lot of gunfire. It made me jump at first, but I followed in after him. We walked past at least twenty lanes, with most of them being occupied by people practicing. He led me into another room with a lot of tables and a counter at the back with glass separating us from the person manning the counter.
Mason walked over to the counter and talked to the man there, “Hey, Derick, can I get a power cell, and five hundred rounds of 7.62 milimeter?”
“Sure thing, Mason. Give me a minute,” he replied. The man turned and went through a door behind him. A minute later, he came out holding a small rectangular box, and an even smaller cylinder. He set them down and typed something on a tablet. When he was done, he looked up at Mason. “Mana pulse, please.”
Mason raised his hand and sent a mana pulse at a small device on this side of the glass.
“Perfect,” Derick said. He picked up the box and cylinder, put them in a small compartment and closed the door. “There you are.”
“Thanks, man,” Mason said, opening the compartment from this side. He extracted the two items and then turning to me. “Follow me.”
He led me over to one of the tables and set his minigun on it before sitting down. I sat opposite and he went over the two objects.
“Alright, this is a power cell. I don’t know how it is made, but think of it like a battery. This little thing is apparently able to supply enough power to my minigun if it was firing continuously for five hours or so. Obviously I can’t do that, because the barrels would melt very quickly, but that gives you an idea of how long I can use it before needing to replace the power cell. This little thing is responsible for reducing a lot of the weight. Without it, I would need to carry a lot of batteries, which isn’t really feasible. Alternatively, mana can be used to power it, but it burns through my mana too quickly. Until I get my mana regeneration up, I’ll be stuck with the power cells,” he explained, plugging the power cell into a slot on the top of the gun.
“This is the other way that weight is reduced,” he said, lifting up the small box and placing it in front of me. At one end, it had an opening and I could see the first bullet. “This ammo box uses the same thing that your mom’s food basket does. It’s enchanted with Enlarge and Lightweight. Pick it up and you’ll see what I mean.”
I picked it up and was surprised how light it was. It couldn’t have been more than one pound, if that.
“You’re saying this little thing contains five hundred rounds? There is no way,” I said, handing it back.
“Don’t believe me? I’ll show you,” he replied, turning the minigun on its side and picking up the ammo box. He attached it to the bottom of the minigun where there were two clips I hadn’t noticed, securing it to the gun. When that was done, he took a long, thin rod out of his inventory and showed it to me. “This is a pin that I insert to disengage the clutch, allowing me to turn the barrel cluster by hand and load the rounds.”
“A clutch, like in a car?”
“Something like that, yeah. Barrels don’t stop spinning as soon as you let go of the trigger, so without a clutch you would lose a lot of rounds anytime you stopped firing,” he explained, inserting the pin. “Now I can start loading the ammo. I need to hold the rounds up until the first two clicks, and then I can let go and rotate the barrel until the first link is ejected.”
He then pulled the ammo belt out of the case and slid the first round into a slot in the bottom. Holding it there, he rotated the barrel cluster counter clockwise. I heard two clicks and then he let go of the belt. He turned the barrel cluster three more times, which caused a piece of metal to be ejected from a slot in the bottom.
“Alright, five rounds are loaded right now, and if I turn it one more time, it will actually fire. To stop that, now I need to remove the pin from the clutch, re-engaging it. That will allow me to rotate the barrel one more time to load the sixth round, and then I can rotate the barrel cluster freely without it going off.”
He removed the pin and turned the barrel cluster once more. Another link that was holding the rounds together was ejected.
“Alright, follow me,” he said, standing up and picking up the minigun.
He turned towards a pair of doors I hadn’t gone through yet, and led me into the room beyond. Once inside, he walked up to a wall and grabbed two pairs of ear protection.
“Take these. This room is going to get quite loud, and you’ll need them.”
I put them on and then he led me down to a stall. Rather than there be sheets of paper for people to aim at, all there was in this room was a large mound of dirt around one hundred meters away. He put his ear protection down and then took a tripod and a ratchet out of his dimensional storage. He put the tool down, and then positioned the tripod the way he wanted it.
“Come over here. I’m going to lift the minigun up and line it up with the holes on the tripod. Grab the ratchet and bolt it down, alright?”
I nodded, walking around him and picked up the ratchet and three screws. He held it perfectly in place, making it very easy to secure to the tripod. When I was done, he let go and set down the ratchet.
“I’ve gotten decent enough with this thing not to need a tripod, but figured I’d set it up so you can try it out,” he explained, turning to me and moving to the side and putting his ear protection on. “Step up to the gun and grab it by the two handles. When you’re ready, lift up the red cover and flick the switch upwards. After that, you can hit one of the two triggers with your thumb and it will fire. Watch out for the recoil, so you don’t hit the ceiling.”
I nodded and walked up to it. Grabbing the two handles, I flicked the switch. A light on the back turned green, so I was good to go. I saw two black buttons close to each thumb, but didn’t move my thumbs just yet. Looking down range, I tried to aim for the middle of the big dirt pile. Breathing in, I moved my right thumb and depressed the button.
Instantly, the barrel started rising and I had to compensate to keep the rounds down. I could see a lot of casings being ejected from the gun, and after a three to four second burst, I let go of the trigger. I flicked the switch again, causing the green light to wink out, and then looked at the floor. I could see at least two hundred casings littering the floor, meaning there were a lot more rounds in that little ammo box than I thought.
“Now I’ll show you what it’s like using it without the tripod,” Mason said.
I stepped back and he re-attached the strap still dangling around his neck. He then removed the bolts and lifted the minigun with one hand, and put away the tripod with the other. With that out of the way, he grabbed a handle on top of the minigun with his right hand, and one of the handles on the back with his left hand, holding it on the left side of his body. It looked very similar to how you would hold a chainsaw.
He aimed down range and flipped the switch. After a few seconds, he pushed one of the buttons and rounds started going downrange at an incredible rate. Looking at the tracers, it seemed like he was easily able to keep the recoil under control. He fired about as long as I did before stopping. He flipped the switch and then unstrapped the minigun, setting it on the floor.
“So there you have it. Five hundred rounds gone in less than eight seconds of actual firing.”
“How big do those ammo boxes get? It would be really inconvenient if you have to take a minute to reload them after firing for a very small amount of time.”
“They get much bigger, but also get less and less feasible to carry. The one we just used was just over a pound, and that was only five hundred rounds of ammunition. I know there is a ten thousand round ammo box, but it weighs around twenty pounds. It’s still very easy for me to carry since my Strength is pretty high, and is going to get higher, but you’re right; It’s a massive inconvenience. That’s why I’m just fooling around at the moment. I’ll probably use something smaller that reloads faster until I can use the energy weapon version instead. They also have a few nice bonuses that come with them,” he said.
“What sort of bonuses?”
“Size, for one. The big thing at the bottom is called a de-linker and is the most important part of the gun. It removes rounds from an ammo belt and pushes them into the gun, while ejecting the links holding rounds together. That removes a lot of size and weight, since it isn’t needed with an energy weapon version. A motor is still needed to turn the barrel cluster, but since that’s all it needs to do, it doesn’t need to be as powerful, so it is smaller as well. Besides that, the main casing of the weapon is smaller, since there aren’t any internal moving parts. An energy weapon version also runs off of those power cells, though the power doesn’t go nearly as far as it does with this one. You can fire around eight thousand times using a power cell before needing to replace it, which is a hell of a lot quicker than loading an ammo belt.”
“Does the energy weapon version shoot as fast as the regular version?”
“It can, though you run the risk of the barrels warping or melting from the heat,” he said, picking up a shop broom. He began sweeping the expended rounds into a three or four inch opening that ran along the wall. While he swept, he continued his explanation, “They run a lot hotter than a conventional minigun, as you can probably imagine. I was talking to some guys that said I can get the barrels enchanted with some sort of frost enchantment to help cool them, which would help a lot. There are other materials that dissipate heat better, but they tend to be quite expensive since they can’t be produced on Earth and need to be shipped in.”
I walked over to the opening along the wall and bent down to look closer. “Where do the empty casings go?”
He laughed. “I asked the same question when I got yelled at for not sweeping them into the opening yesterday. They drop down to a conveyer belt where they’re deposited in a large bin and later sorted. If a shell is still in good condition, then it is reloaded, and if not, its melted down and made into a new casing.”
“Ah, I see. So have you tried any energy weapons or railguns yet?”
“Nah, not yet. This was the first thing I built out of that kit in my room. Everything was in pieces and there was a pretty thick book on how to put it all together. I read through the book a little last night, but didn’t get started until this morning, that’s why I’m all greasy. The moving parts in a minigun move so quickly, that they need to be well lubricated for everything to run smoothly. I was just about to test it when you sent to me.”
“I’m surprised you went with a conventional gun before trying something completely alien.”
Mason shrugged after he finished sweeping the rest of the casings into the opening, “I’ve always thought gatling guns were awesome, from the original one produced in 1861 to more modern ones, like the GAU-8 Avenger used in the A-10 Thunderbolt. Just the aesthetic and the sheer firepower is amazing. I just wanted to build one and try it out.”
