Chapter 185.2: Sure Enough, Lucky People are the Worst
Clearspring City, the edge of the fifth ring.
In front of the main entrance of the abandoned commercial complex.
Wearing a light hunting suit, Old White put down the javelin bag on his back, weighed the javelin in his hand, and focused on the Cruncher closest to the gate.
It was ten meters away.
For the battle-hardened Old White, it was almost impossible to miss the target at this distance.
Taking a deep breath of the cold air, Old White calmed down, poured all his attention on every inch of muscle and joint in his body, and threw out the javelin in his hand suddenly.
Limit -
Breaker!
In an instant, the electrical and chemical signals that shuttled through the neurons suddenly increased, and his muscles swelled rapidly.
In a cracking sound, the javelin drew an almost invisible afterimage in the air, slammed into the gate like a cannonball, and nailed the Cruncher to the wall three meters away.The Cruncher that was pierced in the chest did not die immediately and was still struggling.
The other crunchers that were hovering nearby raised their heads blankly, turning their stiff slowly from side to side as if looking for the attacker; but they found nothing.
Looking at his right hand in surprise, Old White’s face was full of excitement.
Before he could speak, Night Ten, who was standing on the side, couldn’t help but say. "Holy shit! This skill is quite strong!"
When they just logged into the game earlier, there were already many people around the event NPC before the event even started. There were so many that they couldn’t squeeze into the crowd.
Considering that there was no time limit for the event anyway, and there was no need to rush this moment, Bull and Horse Squad came to the edge of the fifth ring in Clearspring City at the suggestion of Ample Time and found a suitable place for leveling to test the combat effectiveness of LV10 strength type player.
Facts proved that the gap between LV9 and LV10 was very large.
When Old White reached LV10, it was like breaking through a bottleneck. Whether it was his attributes or actual combat ability, there was a qualitative leap.
"Can you say that he’s stronger than us? It’s clearly downplaying his abilities... This power is simply bug-level." Gale, who was standing beside him, had an envious expression on his face.
Although he could also throw the javelin like a cannonball, that was with the help of a mechanical prosthesis.
Unlike him, Old White did not have any equipment bonuses. He just relied on the strength of his muscles to reach a level comparable to a mechanical prosthesis.
If the strength type players would all be as strong as him, then what was the point of going for the mechanical implant upgrading route?
After all, if the mechanical implant was broken, it would cost money to be repaired, and it needed to be well maintained to be used for a long time. Moreover, when encountering an EMP, it would most likely stop working. If all the money earned from doing missions was used to repair the equipment, who would want to have a mechanical implant?
But the physical strengthening route was different. Even if the player died accidentally, they wouldn’t have to worry about losing expensive equipment. Moreover, after three days, they would be able to recover fully. This price to performance ratio was simply invincible.
Gale was still excited a few days ago that the version that intelligence type sequence would be buffed was coming.
It seemed that he got excited too early.
Old White smiled and scratched the back of his head. "It’s too exaggerated to say that this is a bug. Actually, I think it’s quite reasonable. After all, it’s a class that has early stage advantages. If the early stage advantage is not obvious, who would want to play this class?" ??
Night Ten couldn’t help but growl, "I’m afraid your early stage buff is a bit too long!"
Old White laughed heartily at Night Ten’s words. "That’s not important."
"But I gotta say that the power just now is probably even enough to deal with Creepers." With his arms folded before his chest, Ample Time also had an envious expression on his face, "Even with my dynamic vision, I almost didn’t see the trajectory of that throw!"
The agility attribute affected not only the ability to react, but also the enhancement of vision. It was so fast that he couldn’t even see it, which was enough to show how terrifying the power of that blow was!
I wonder what talent the agility type will unlock after I reach LV10.
Ample Time, who had just leveled up to LV9, couldn’t help looking forward to the world after LV10 more and more!
After listening to Ample Time’s evaluation, Old White thought for a while, then shook his head and expressed his feelings.
"It’s still difficult to use a javelin. A Creeper’s movement speed is too fast. It is much faster than the charging up time of throwing a javelin. So it will be very hard to hit from far away. And if I have to fight it at close range, I will not be able to charge up my strength and aim. But then again, this talent is probably more useful in melee combat than throwing objects at close-range. And with exoskeletons and long-handled weapons, it can deal tons of damage in a short period of time! Even if I run into a mutant human, I have the confidence to take it out!"
His axe was specially made by Steel Plant 81. It had wide blades on both sides and a pointed tip. It could cut, stab, and hook, which was very useful for dealing with both people and mutants.
Ample Time continued to ask: "Apart from your Limit Breaker, do you feel that there are any other changes?"
After thinking for a while, Old White said, "Other changes... It’s hard to describe. Specifically, my muscles and bones feel more sturdy than before, and my athletic ability is stronger, but it doesn’t seem to be obvious from the outside."
Speaking of this, Old White couldn’t help but sigh "Sigh, every time I play this game, I can’t help but think, if only I had such awesome physical fitness in reality!"
Having in-game physical fitness in reality.
Hearing this sentence, Ample Time revealed an expression of intrigue.
Not to mention anything else, just in archery alone, if his physical fitness, in reality, could catch up with half of his in-game physical fitness, he could probably participate in the Olympics!
What is the concept of having an agility attribute over 10 points?
In terms of vision and dynamic vision alone, few normal humans would be his opponents.
Unless they were also mutants...
After imagining the scene in his mind, Night Ten frowned. "Wait, if it’s really so great, wouldn’t I be at a disadvantage? My perception attribute is completely useless."
Gale calmly said, "Not necessarily, you go to any casino and try it."
Night Ten was stunned for a moment, then suddenly blurted, "Damn! Why didn’t I think of that?"
Gale chuckled but said nothing.
If it was really possible to have in-game physical data, in reality, his intelligence type should be the most advantageous.
At this moment, Old White, who was staring at the VM, suddenly said, "There seems to be a new mission in my mission column."
Upon hearing that there was a new mission, Night Ten immediately leaned over and glanced curiously. "What mission? Let me take a look."
"Explore Central Continent Aerospace’s ecological experimental base in the northern suburbs of Clearspring City. The mission rewards 200 silver coins and 200 contribution points... What is the ecological experimental base?"
While asking, Old White switched to the map page of the VM. He swiped his index finger on the touch screen a few times and found the location of the mission beacon.
It was an unexplored area, located in the east-north direction of the outpost, about 15.7 kilometers in a straight line.
Judging from the map before the war, there were not many urban buildings nearby, the terrain was relatively high, and it was very likely to become a forest after the war.
After seeing the map, Gale stroked his chin. "It’s actually the mission of the scientific expedition team... After the official website updated the gameplay of the scientific expedition team last time, it was the first time I saw Dr Yin Fang give out a mission."
"Maybe the condition for unlocking the mission is to be LV10?" Old White had a look of interest on his face. He eagerly looked at his good brothers and said, "What do you guys say? Do you want to challenge it?"
Level B3 of the Greenhouse Ruins had just been cleared, the mission had not been handed in, and the next floor has not opened, so there was no need to raid the dungeon these days.
Anyway, the Greenhouse Ruins wouldn’t run away, so they all decided to see what the new mission was all about.
After all, the name of this institute sounded pretty badass, so it must be very interesting.
Night Ten agreed immediately. "I have no objections!"
Gale also agreed. "Neither do I. We can also take this chance to learn more about the scientific expedition team’s purpose."
"Me too." A smile appeared on Ample Time’s face, "it is such an interesting mission. It would be a pity if we missed it."
Old White said with a hearty smile, "Then it’s settled! Let’s go back to the outpost to change equipment, and gather at the north gate!"
Night Ten raised his hand suddenly. "Wait, how do we get there? It’s very far."
Old White said with a smile. "Don’t worry about it! It was mentioned in the mission that the scientific expedition team will support us with a truck and send us to our destination!"
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
A distance of 15.7 kilometers!
If they had to walk there, it would probably take them a day.
Just as Bull and Horse Squad returned to the outpost, the players who went to explore Shelter 117 had also arrived in front of the giant alloy gate located in the subway tunnel.
This giant gate had not been closed since the last time it was opened.
The front door was crowded with people, and many players were trying their best to peek at what was inside with curious eyes.
The guard stationed at the entrance of the shelter walked up to the players and said in a loud voice. "Players who have received a mission, please leave your equipment with me."
"Shelter 117 is a weapons restricted area, and it is forbidden to bring firearms, knives, explosives, inflammable, and dangerous goods into it."
"The exploration time is not limited, but please try to keep it within an hour!"
"I wish you guys good luck!"
