Chapter 82 Gunshots Ring Out, Divine Soul Annihilation!
"Buy!"
Chen Yi once again waved his hand grandly and bought 20 Vehicle Renaming Coupons to toss into Tuberculosis Rabbit's backpack.
He would rename that vehicle of his when he got back to it.
What "Mechanical Moose Christmas Sleigh", it sounds awful and it's a mouthful, plus that mechanical moose is utterly useless, it would just dangle there as a sleigh ornament.
A mechanical moose that can't even handle speeds over 1000 kilometers per hour, what a piece of junk.
It's not even as good as his Five-Spice Milu Deer.
A bowl of noodles a day keeps your energy at bay.
Even if he had to name it, it would be "Five-Spice Milu Deer Christmas Sleigh".
Or it could be.
"Santa Claus, that Old Man has been chasing me for a whole day, I remember this grudge. Wait till I level up in December, I'll capture all your 2000-plus deer to pull my sleigh, and make you deliver gifts on Christmas Day by climbing down chimneys on foot."
Or it could be.
"All the Vehicles ranked below me on the leaderboard, what kind of trash are they? Oranges-flavored Exploding Beads, Traceless Green Peak, and all sorts of messy vehicles, can you even compete? Could you please just blow up the top rank for me?"
After all, the limit for renaming a vehicle is 306 characters, not to mention changing a name, even writing a short essay of over a hundred words would be enough.
What exactly he would rename it to, he still had to give it some thought.
One thing for sure was that he was definitely changing the name. He had been enduring it for too long already.
As for why he bought 20.
...Renaming things can be addictive after doing it once you start thinking about the second, third time. If not for the lack of Points, he would have bought at least 50.
Not lingering any longer.
He continued to look down the list.
"Prop Name": Area Horn.
"Prop Level": C Grade.
"Prop Effect": Allows one's voice to be heard by all players in a main city and its nearby regions, and will appear in front of players as a banner lightscreen.
"Prop Restrictions": Can only be used in the main city, which is defined as the city where the 'Main City Mission' has been completed.
"Prop Price": 1000 Points.
"Prop Limited Sale": None.
"This...?"
Chen Yi hesitated slightly, finding himself somewhat indecisive. Actually, this prop was quite attractive to him; he had already thought about how he would use it.
When Yancheng once again faced a beast tide.
He would activate the horn.
Say something like a four-character idiom that's filled with vigor, cultural level, and also loaded with profound meaning. Anyway, the point was to have a sonorous voice resounding in the ears of all players in Yancheng, and then he would ascend above Yancheng in the sleigh.
Then pull off a unique global character action.
Make a dazzling entrance.
That display would simply max out his presence; his philosophy was that even if his combat power was lacking, his style must be full-blown!
The problem is... the price is a bit steep.
1000 Points for a horn, isn't that a bit extravagant?
After pondering for a moment, he nodded and decided that he should focus on increasing his fighting power, for only with sufficient combat capability could he survive in this chaotic world.
All these showy things are just temporary solutions, not long-term plans.
So, he chose to buy only 3.
3000 Points to show off was a price he could accept; at worst, he would make himself grind for 10 hours outside the city later.
Grinding was really hard for him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even though he didn't have to lift a finger, his butt would truly get stiff.
After adding these three horns into his backpack, he looked again at the other props.
"Hmm?"
His gaze was suddenly drawn by a prop, and his eyes immediately shot out a burst of bright light!
"Prop Name": Septagon Badge!
"Prop Level": B Grade.
"Prop Effect": This prop is an accessory for firearms, with specific effects as follows:
1. When the Septagon Badge is embedded in a firearm, every bullet will carry the black shine special effect, leaving behind a black luster as the main tail flame effect in the air.
2. Every shot fired towards an enemy will invariably hit the heart chamber.
3. Whenever the Septagon Badge hears discussions about its owner from those around, it will start to vibrate slightly, constantly drawing power, and once charged, it can activate its special effect.
"Special Effects": After activating the special effect, the Septagon Badge will create 100 gun barrels according to the main prop of the firearm it is embedded in, launching a 10-second annihilating assault on the enemy in front.
Each gun barrel can normally fire bullets.
If there is only one enemy, all 100 gun barrels will target that enemy.
If there are multiple enemies, the 100 gun barrels will spread and randomly target the enemies.
"Prop Restrictions":
1. When the Septagon Badge has heard a total of 10,000 remarks concerning debates about its owner, it is fully charged and can activate the special effect at any time.
2. If the firearm in which it is embedded consumes Points for each bullet fired, then upon activating the special effect, the Points consumed will increase by a hundredfold.
3. This prop can be freely removed and attached to other firearms.
"Prop Introduction": "If someone has to stand up, then... I hope that person is you."
"Prop Price": 150,000 Points.
"Prop Limited Sale": (0/1.)
Only one for sale.
So far, not a single person has made a purchase.
And next to the prop panel, there was a usage effect video.
In the video.
A middle-aged man clad in black, with a stern and icy face, pulled out a revolver commonly used by cowboys from his bosom and aimed at a giant Minotaur Monster not far away, activating the Special Effects.
The next second—
In the air, suddenly emerged a total of 100 gun barrels, all pointing directly at that Minotaur Monster.
A full 100 bullets with black glittering special effects burst forth towards the Minotaur Monster!
The special effects looked exceptionally beautiful and dazzling.
There was no sensation of lightness, but instead a profound sense of deterrence and shock!
The 100 bullets, like shooting stars, passed straight through the heart of the Minotaur Monster, shattering its flesh into the sky, which became the conclusion of the video.
This was a firearm-enhancing Prop.
Taken alone, it wasn't much use, but combined with firearm-related props, it could have an effect that was unstoppable!
After watching this promotional video, Chen Yi did not hesitate in the slightest to choose to purchase.
His account balance decreased by another 150,000 Points.
This prop, in combination with his sniper rifle, would have an effect where 1+1=3, significantly amplifying his power.
His sniper rifle, with every bullet, could inflict true damage worth three percent of the target's Maximum Health Value!
In other words, after activating the Special Effects,
he could instantly cause true damage equal to 300% of the enemy's Maximum Health Value!
With this level of damage, to put it bluntly,
would you dare Santa Claus to stroll by again? Isn't it just recovering 100% of the Maximum Health Value every second? Then what?
If there are no countermeasures,
one shot brings them down!
It can be said that this item greatly improved both his single-target attack strength and his AoE (Area of Effect) ability.
Whether it's the neutral boss in December or the boss after 80 years.
As long as they are not in an invincible state and have no defenses whatsoever,
"Bang."
The sound of the gun meant Divine Soul Annihilation!
The game was all about crushing with overwhelming numbers.
As for that Special Effects Charge, that wasn't a challenge for him either. He just needed to show his face in front of everyone. With over a dozen titles above his head, that alone was enough to keep everyone talking for a while.
And before long, the Charge was complete.
Just then—
From the square not too far away, came bursts of exclamations.
"Hmm?"
Chen Yi raised his eyebrows lightly and turned his head to look down at the plaza below.
He saw a child-sized figure at least six meters tall who had appeared on the square, brandishing a bulging gift sack in his hands, continually swinging it and attacking the players around him.
That huge gift sack, in the hands of the child-sized figure, was like a heavy hammer!
Each impact on the ground left a deep pit!
If someone were directly hit, they likely wouldn't have a chance of getting rescued.
At this moment,
Quite a few players had already started to collectively use their abilities to besiege this child-sized boss, and over time, everyone had figured out that the bosses in these limited-time events weren't all that strong.
As long as you concentrated hard and dodged the boss's attacks in time, there wouldn't be any problems.
Moreover, the rewards would be distributed based on a ranking of damage dealt to the boss!
And the method of distributing rewards was extremely fair.
Even if you only had assist Skills and were just dodging on the sidelines, giving some speed buff to a player engaged with the boss, you could still share in certain rewards after the boss died.
Though you didn't cause any damage,
you had Contribution Value.
For example, someone who constantly held the boss's aggro would also receive additional rewards. In short, every player's effort was guaranteed to be rewarded appropriately.
"Let's go, let's check it out down there."
Chen Yi boarded the snow sled, beckoned Tuberculosis Rabbit and others onto it, and then shot towards the ground below.
...
"Hurry, hurry, get ready."
Near the child-sized boss, three bald men in newbie shorts, bare-chested, were running excitedly from a distance towards this place, their eyes filled with anticipation.
The child-sized boss had arrived!
Time to farm for rewards!
When they were about fifteen meters away from the boss, they stopped well before getting closer.
At this distance, until the boss killed all the players in front of it, it was an absolutely safe spot where they wouldn't be attacked.
Exceptionally safe.
Of course, without ranged props or Skills, it would be hard to deal damage to the boss.
"Big Brother."
One of the men, a young man with a slightly immature face and three tufts of mustache under his nose, could barely contain his excitement as he spoke, "The usual rules?"
"Nonsense."
The leading man, who had only one tuft of mustache under his nose, pinched it to breathe more comfortably before scoffing.
"It's foolish to run up front and trade your life for rewards, while we can just use assist Skills from afar to lightly take part in the assistance, with no threat to our lives and still get rewards!"
"That's the path to long-term survival!"
"Our ancestors told us long ago,"
"Fortune comes with risks, but so does loss."
"The fruits of reckless bravery are not worth boasting about. Only a steady, sustainable approach is the path to true development."
