Chapter 380 Counter Measurement

If that was the case, then Theobold would definitely never let him approach the Railgun Blaster.

Theobold was confident that his RF shielding was impeccable and couldn\'t be identified, but never once did he expect Shi Tian to hold the biggest trump card: the integrated chip.

\'The IC chip can identify and figure out a way to counter the RF shielding in a matter of seconds. I don\'t know whether to feel blessed or wary of it.\' Shi Tian thought to himself.

Having such a powerful item might sound great, but it also horrified him somewhat. The usefulness that it had shown frequently was making him wary as he began to doubt its origins.

Origins as in the integrated chip does not belong to Earth and was from the chaotic and mysterious fissure sky crack in the year 2139.

As he wondered about the origin of the integrated chip, his thought process was interrupted by Mary, who was still asking how he managed to figure out a counter to Theobold\'s RF shielding so quickly.

"How are you so confident, Nathan?" Mary asked.

"You know that if you make a mistake, then it\'s going to be disastrous for you."

She wasn\'t trying to demotivate him but was trying to warn him that this was going to be a big gamble.

If he wins the bet, then he will win a lot, such as resources and connections.

However, if he loses, then his life might be in danger, mainly because Phoebe wouldn\'t forgive him. And even if Vanessa decided to protect him, his life in Gearits City could be considered over.

After all, Shi Tian wouldn\'t be offending one commander, but multiple commanders as well as the Five Families backing them.

"Relax, Mary… when have you ever seen me being the type to take any risk?" Shi Tian chuckled softly and asked.

He was trying to lessen the tension in the atmosphere but little did he expect Mary to start counting the incidents.

Raising one of her fingers up, Mary began talking, "Well, there\'s this incident at the Horology Restaurant. If it wasn\'t for Gerald\'s timely arrival, you and that woman would have been killed by Kralos Tal."

She then raised her second finger up and continued, "Two, you confidently chose to become a vanguard, but came back riddled with bullets. And you still had the nerve to act tough despite the bullets being laced with poison."

After saying that, Mary was about to raise another finger, only to be halted by Shi Tian.

"Okay, you win." Shi Tian raised his hands up as a form of surrender. He was really afraid that she might start bringing up more incidents.

Mary only named one of the few most popular incidents and that was enough already. There was no need to go any further.

Meanwhile, Mary clenched her hand and stopped counting the times that he had surely risked his life to achieve something.

"Since you surrendered, then let me see what you are planning to counter the RF shielding. And if it\'s not effective, then I\'m going to punish you just like the old times when you are still being trained." Mary smiled sweetly and said, causing Shi Tian to feel a shiver down his spine.

Checking his posture, Shi Tian made sure to sit upright to prove to Mary that he was confident.

As if he was going to start acting timidly or cowardly and get punished for it.

"I\'ve already identified the frequency used by Theobold, so I\'m going to have a frequency jamming on the shielded area." Shi Tian explained.

Mary was startled for a moment, given that the frequency being used by Theobold would be extremely difficult to identify. There are simply too many frequency possibilities and to precisely pinpoint the specific value of the frequency was unheard of.

"How did you know the frequency Theobold used?" Mary asked curiously.

Even she was helpless and incapable of doing such a feat in a short span of time, much less having the proper tools and equipment to measure and determine it.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian kept a silly smile on his face as he simply responded, "That\'s a trade secret, so sorry, but can\'t tell you."

However, the truth was that the information was obtained from the integrated chip, and even he had no idea how he figured it out. So how was he supposed to answer her question when he practically cheated?

"But are you just going to rely on frequency jamming?" Ignoring his so-called trade secret, Mary was still skeptical about the frequency jamming.

Even if he does get the same frequency, that doesn\'t mean it would work.

Would Theobold be that careless and not anticipate that kind of possibility?

"Of course, I didn\'t think frequency jamming was enough." Shi Tian mused.

"In addition to that, I also planned on injecting a sonic or energy wave type to disrupt the RF shielding just in case the frequency jamming fails."

As he said that, Shi Tian flexed his mechanical right arm, changing the gear form as well, and creating a churning-type of sound.

Previously he had caused a sonic wave on the terrain beneath to overcome the obstacle that Theobold was facing. So from that logic, he could also use the same type of attack to disrupt Theobold.

"You\'ve really thought it all out and was not simply being rash and impulsive…" Mary twitched her mouth, seemingly stunned by his action.

She thought he was being irrational when he agreed to such a deal with Phoebe, but now it seemed like he had everything planned from the start.

"I might have thought it out, but it\'s still a somewhat gamble, Mary. Therefore, I\'m grateful for your advice and warning." Shi Tian smiled calmly, telling her not to brood over the matter.
