Chapter 366: Chapter 366: OEM (Additional release for 200 monthly votes)
Li Yao had decided what weapons he wanted to install before he arrived: one being a hand cannon that had not been used for a long time, a component of this cannon that he still has no clue until now.
Since it is quite a low level, it is not suitable for Li Yao to use now, so he decided to install it on the new Death God 4000.
The second weapon is a sniper rifle that played a significant role some time ago, a weapon seldom used.
Of course, if the sniper rifle didn’t have such a strong recoil, Li Yao could definitely use it. After all, he is most fond of such a super long-range shot.
But this is just wishful thinking, usually not needed in ordinary times.
Besides, with the Blue Moon Bow and Fire Gun obtained today, although their range is not as good as the sniper rifle, they have basically met Li Yao’s heart’s expectations.
So, after considering it for a while, Li Yao still thinks it is feasible to install the sniper rifle.
Li Yao’s work didn’t stop. He began the installation and had to set up the ammunition device. Although it won’t be quicker than his fingers, it can’t be helped.
The two flying wheels, after all, are not equipment and have limited firepower.
After this modification, the Death God 4000 has completely changed. Both attributes and skills have changed somewhat.
At least Li Yao is very satisfied. Then Li Yao changed the Death God 4000’s colour and form a bit.
If it were not for Li Yao’s personal modification, even Li Yao wouldn’t think that this was the original Death God 4000.
Having finished everything, it was already late at night. But Li Yao didn’t take a rest and instead started to make a turret.
The turret needed Iron Ingots. Li Yao bought some directly for money. Although it is costly, Li Yao won’t need much and didn’t mins it, he began making the turret quickly.
By the time dawn broke, after failing twice, Li Yao finally managed to make the turret.
Like the Arrow Tower, a small turret could be put in a backpack. Like a totem, a cannon taller than half a person and about a yard long would appear when deployed.
Not until then, Li Yao took a sigh of relief. Following this, he made some bullets and stumbled out of the door.
It was bustling outside. Basically, high-level masters who learned engineering were gathered here. When there’s nothing to do, they can practice engineering. When tired, they can fight in the arena, then go on levelling when bored.
As it is a Mechanical City, their rewards are also mostly related to mechanics, attracting many engineering players to come together.
More importantly, a new elite profession known as the Mechanical Hunter has emerged.
On the Light Faction’s side, as long as a certain task is completed, you can be transferred to become a Mechanical Hunter.
The position of the Mechanical Hunter allows you to contract mechanical pets, but basically, you can only use engineering weapons. Bows and arrows are practically unuseable.
Because of Li Yao’s exceptional popularity, the appearance of the Mechanical Firehawk and Death God 4000 makes everyone believe that Li Yao is also a Mechanical Hunter and has witnessed the Mechanical Hunter’s unique power.
Therefore, many players who want to change into a Mechanical Hunter gather here.
Only many people found out that it is not that easy to become a Mechanical Hunter.
If you want powerful mechanical pets, you can only rely on learning the blueprints and making them yourself. However, how many can make robots now? It’s too complex, and their expertise is inadequate.
Even if that wasn’t enough, to speak nothing of making, just getting the blueprints for these powerful mechanical pets was like trying to ascend to the heavens, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as clueless. They can only use some ordinary mechanical pets.
However, many people do not believe in this and think that they are not strong because they are stupid, or they fear that they will also be transitioned to the profession.
Originally, the Hunters were in a tough situation, and now they have seen a glimmer of light; there’s no reason not to switch.
Li Yao took a walk outside and found many such players, and he found it amusing.
If it wasn’t for the support of the Titan Equipment, even if he plays as a Mechanical Hunter, he could only endure slowly, and the power of the mechanism wouldn’t have been so significant without the enhancement of the Titan Equipment.
But this secret, he will never tell no matter what.
The blueprints Li Yao needs actually exist in two places. One is the center of the town; there must be a Master Craftsman here who possesses this blueprint within his collection. Using Li Yao’s current conditions to get it is nearly impossible.
The other place is the underneath ruins of this city. If Li Yao remembers right, the Gnomes have just discovered these ruins.
The Gnomes sent many soldiers to explore, but most of them didn’t come back out. Many were turned into cold machines by a mysterious force.
But the Gnomes didn’t want other races to interfere so they decided that Gnomes could lead a team of new recruits or adventurers to explore these ruins.
It was not so good for Li Yao to run directly to the ruins as soon as he got here.
“Near senior-level proficiency in Engineering, accept commissions for making Engineering items, also accepting orders for repairing various Engineering items — no repair, no charge.” Li Yao directly set up a sign in front of the buildings of the Engineering Laboratory.
Li Yao had almost all of the blueprints that could be learned. With the skills from his previous life, even though the system rated him as intermediate level, in reality, he was well enough beyond the experienced level that it couldn’t compare to him; his repair and commissioned work were more than sufficient.
“Boss, I want to make a Fire Gun, but I only know basic engineering, so I can’t do it. How much would a level fifteen blue gun cost?” A human girl asked in a feeble voice.
Li Yao took a look at her and said, “Miss Little Cold Hands, a level fifteen Fire Gun isn’t cheap.”
Commission work isn’t rare. At this stage, in addition to some major guilds, even the slightly weaker guilds still can’t afford to foster an intermediate Engineering player. They could only hire outsiders to do the work.
Many lucky players received blueprints, but their proficiency was not enough, so naturally, they weren’t able to make them.
Even just beside Li Yao, there were few intermediate level Engineering players doing commission work. Still, they had just reached the intermediate level since the game had just begun, and their craftsmanship was too poor. Seeing that they’d set up stalls but nobody came, their situation was evident.
“I have the blueprint.” The little girl cautiously took out the blueprint. “The rule here is, if you learn the blueprint, you should make a Shimmering Weapon for me, and then we call it even. Does that work for you?”
Li Yao looked at the blueprint. It was a fairly good level fifteen blue Fire Gun. More importantly, it had the chance to shine into a Purple Equipment.
There are two rules for commission work. One is doing commission work for items one can make by himself, and the other party pays the fee.
The other is that the boss provides the blueprint, and if the commissioned party agrees to learn the blueprint, he must make a Shimmering quality item for the party who provided the blueprint.
This way, the blueprint would be the payment. After all, the value of the blueprint is not small. Once you learn the blueprint, you can’t take the labour cost anymore.
“Deal, the blueprint is good. I’ll take the job.” Li Yao directly issued the commission contract.
“Thanks, mister. I’ve been looking for several days, and nobody could make it for me.” The little girl was excited.
Li Yao gave a bitter smile. The blueprint requires almost a high level of Engineering proficiency. Who else could make it besides him …?
ps: I will post some book-related things on my public WeChat account, for those who like it, search nixidemaliao.
I will start to speed up the update from tomorrow.
