"What are you making there?" Alice asked listlessly, watching Tang Mo who had been sitting still for over an hour, fiddling with the strange parts in his hand.
"If I really had to name it… you could call it… a fuze," Tang Mo replied without taking his eyes off the components in his hands, with a steady gaze.
"A fuze? What's that?" Alice, who had never heard the term, continued to ask with a puzzled look on her face.
"Perhaps it's a switch for some kind of superweapon in the future," Tang Mo said with a smile, threading a part made by Mathews through a spring, carefully attaching it to a device.
What he was currently working on was a percussion fuze, a crucial device for artillery shells, without which a shell would not be able to explode at the most needed time.
In fact, after developing fulminate, Tang Mo had begun working on this device. However, it was clear that the device was too intricate for his factory to mass-produce.
