761 More New Toys
"I.D's and Passes please."
"Sure!"
Everyone did as they were told, while another guard quickly checked their vehicle and bodies.
Even if they knew who they were these men still did their jobs thoroughly.
After all, only those permitted could get into the lower region.
They passed through several more checkers before going on their way.
Who knows if Landon and the rest were assassins with face paint on?
It was better to be safe than sorry.
'Vrrrrrrmmmmmmmm.'
Landon, Lucius and Mark drove off after undergoing all security checks.
The lower region was treated just like the F.B.I headquarters back on earth.
So they had been individually scanned and checked thoroughly through the massive security building.
With their identities verified and weapons registered, they quickly headed towards the weapon manufacturing industry accompanied by 2 more security guards.
One should know that they weren't part of the security team that was supposed to guard the lower region.
They were just visitors who came in with registered weapons.
Hence, the guards were to follow them at all times during their stay in the lower region just to make sure that they didn't try anything funny... even if they knew that Lucius and the rest were prominent military figures.
That said, they drove their vehicles behind them calmly.
.
"Welcome your majesty!"
"Welcome king father Lucius!"
"Welcome assistant Chief of Police Mark!"
"Hmm!"
Landon and the rest nodded at the many personnels in the room.
From the Minister of national defence to those with important roles in the army, police force and guard units, everyone was here for the show.
The moment Landon stepped in, he was made to sign a confidentiality document as usual.
With that, he sat in the massive waiting room patiently.
1:55 P.M
It was almost time for the show to begin.
And right on cue, the double-sided door before them opened up and a 32-year-old woman in a lab coat walked in.
The somewhat noisy room quieted down a bit.
The lady first greeted Landon and Lucius before focusing on everyone else.
"Welcome everyone, to the weapon manufacturing industry.
I'm overseer Melissa, and I'll be here to any questions during the show.
Now, follow me please."
With that, the woman turned around and led them through the door.
Mark's eyes sparkled as he saw gadgets and gears around the room.
Lucius acted the same as well.
It took a lot of effort for him to calm down, as he was very much remote to run toward them merrily.
Everyone felt the same too.
They looked at these new creations like Christmas toys from Santa Claus.
"What do you think that is?
It looks so cool!"
"Ahhhh!
Look at that one?
Will it be for the military, the police or guardsmen?
Please let it be for us.
I want it so bad!!"
Everyone was happily talking about the new toys while trying to guess their purposes.
Overseer Melissa just smiled and stood before one of the volunteers who was currently wearing some sort of arm shield.
.
"To start off, we'll begin with this.
The BodyGuard."
"Oooooooowwwwww!"
Everyone was in awe when looking at the cool hand-like glove shield that almost reached one's elbow.
"The bodyguard has a thick upper exterior that protects against knife attacks.
Of course, I know that you all are trained professionals.
But if you weren't, and someone wanted to cut your face with a knife, what would a normal person's instincts be like?"
Mark simulated it in his mind and pictured that he was the one getting attacked.
"A normal person?
Hmmm... they would instinctively place their hands over their face for protection."
Everyone nodded in agreement too.
"Yes, that's right.
They would instinctively use their hands as shields.
And this is where the bodyguard comes to play.
Its polymer-based frame, composite armour shell, inner sleeves and other protective materials... protect against lethal knife or blade attacks.
So it in itself is a glove hand shield.
But that isn't all.
On the side here, there are 4 buttons.
But before we continue the demonstration, Jules, can you lower the window covers."
"Yes, overseer Melissa." With that, the young man who was Melissa's secretary hastily ran towards a table at the front of the room, opened a drawer and took out a remote control as well as a small instruction manual there.
He quickly glimpsed at the manual and knew which button was for what before pressing on them.
And soon, the window covers were lowered, blocking the sun's rays.
For sure, he kept one massive window uncovered, because overseer Melissa didn't want the room completely dark.
.
"Thank you, Jules.
Now, let continue with the functions of these 4 buttons.
The first button will activate a flashlight that will come out from here."
'Pim!'
The button was pressed and a bright white beam of light shot out from the arm shield.
Everyone's mouth dropped wide open as they looked at the latest tech before them.
It was as if it came out from a spy movie.
Yes, they had flashlights and whatnot.
But when it comes out of a shield, how cool was that?
Melissa saw their excitement and didn't plan on stopping there.
"That was it for the first button.
But the won't one will definitely blow your minds.
Everyone, I'd like to draw everyone's attention to these 2 erect points here.
Onex the second button is pressed, a large bolt of current will be transferred out.
So in essence, it works like a taser."
--silence--
Everyone looked at the shield with greedy eyes.
No!
This weapon had to be sent to the military
So what if police people typically used tasers?
This weapon was a great help to the men outside as well.
Say they were out on a mission and meet a wild creature in the forest.
If the creature climbs on them and tries to bite them, then they could activate the taser on the uppermost part of the shield and render it motionless.
In fact, they could even trick the creature by letting it bite the tough shield, before tasing the living daylight out of it.
Again, the same could be said if they got jumped by a criminal too.
It's the perfect situation for both indoor and outdoor missions.
Since it's worn like a long arm glove, it's a weapon that can't be taken away from them.
The taser will become a part of their body.
So how could they not want it?
No!
This Bodyguard Tech had to be theirs!
