30. The way forward

The key to upgrading a rifle is in two places, one is the barrel and the other is the bolt, these two places can determine how much attack power a gun can exert, and of course the best materials should be used to upgrade it.

Other parts, such as muzzles, stocks, scopes, etc., do not necessarily require high-grade materials, and ordinary materials can be modified slightly to achieve very good results.

After using the purchased 100 Steels to build a new barrel bolt, Lin Wen began to upgrade the Raptor rifle: replacing the barrel and bolt, adding a brake, and adding tactical rails. Finally, Lin Wen also took out a diamond-shaped crystal that shimmered with purple light from his backpack.

Crystallized Tears of Loyalty (Epic), increases ranged attack strength by 10%, pet attack strength by 10%, and attack speed by 10%. -- The desire to accompany him was frozen in a crystal tear.

In the secret realm, Lin Wen opened the altar crystal, and at this time, there was only a small piece left in front of him, and it became a gem with good attributes, which could be inlaid on the equipment.

Lin Wen directly opened an inlay groove on the butt of the gun, and then inlaid the Crystallized Tears of Loyalty into it.

Raptor (Fine), Level 10, 16-27 damage, attack speed 0.91, +7 agility, +7 stamina, +12 critical hits. Set with Gemstones: Crystallized Tears of Loyalty. Note: Upgrades can be made with high-grade materials.

Of course, not only rifles, but also pistols should be upgraded.

G18 Pistol (Excellent), Level 10, 10-16 damage, Attack Speed 0.1, +2 Agility, +1 Stamina, +4 Haste. Note: Upgrades are available with premium materials.

The next step is to upgrade the accessories, although the accessories will not affect the attributes of the weapon, but they will play a great auxiliary role in combat, first of all, the magic lamp.

Invented by the gnomes, the magic lamp is small enough to be held in the hand or attached to a helmet, as well as to a gun. Lin Wen attached a bayonet to the magic lamp and attached an infrared indicator. With a god-level engineering in his body, Lin Wen only used a small ruby fragment to make the infrared indicator. In this way, the magic lamp should not be called a magic lamp, but a tactical flashlight.

Then there is the dagger, Lin Wen has equipped the cunning blade with two bayonets, and when needed, the cunning blade can be mounted under the muzzle as a bayonet.

After the accessories, it is necessary to replenish the ammunition, and a secret realm trial has exhausted the ammunition on Lin Wen's body, but fortunately, there is an engineering interface in his body, and it will not take much time to replenish these things.

When making ammunition in the engineering interface, Lin Wen suddenly remembered that he had picked up two things when he killed the female demon spirit before, and he hadn't seen it yet, so he took out the loot he had obtained from the previous demon spirit attack from his backpack - a space bag, and a severed hand.

The space pack of the demon spirit is not small, there are 14 slots, and there are a lot of strange things in it, including red crystal arrows, various potions, and claws and fur, but other than that, there is nothing worth noting. Emptying all kinds of garbage in the space backpack, Lin Wen hung the 14-grid space bag of the demon spirit on his waist.

Then Lin Wen picked up the severed hand. Generally speaking, the severed hand is not attractive, the flesh is rolled, bones are exposed in many places, and the surface is covered with blood scabs, which looks horrible and disgusting. However, what attracted Lin Wen was a ring on the finger of the severed hand, this ring was like a dry thorn surrounding, and even many spikes were deeply pierced into the fingers of the demon spirit, which looked very weird, and judging from the point where the spikes on the ring pierced the finger, it is estimated that this demon spirit has been carrying this ring for a long time.

Lin Wen directly cut off the finger with the ring before taking the ring off.

Precious Bloodthorn Ring (Fine), Dexterity +37, Stamina +37, Spirit +37, Intelligence +37, Strength +37, Use: Embedding Thorns in the body, consuming 10% of max health to escape into the shadows for 10 seconds and a 5-minute cooldown. - Bloodthorn branches are tangled in the shape of a ring, and there is a ring of spikes on the inner wall of the ring.

Looking at the ring on his hand, Lin Wen was also stunned for a while, although this thing is just a fine-grade ring, but the effect is simply against the sky, and the meaning of escaping into the shadows is to forcibly stealth. Whether it's attacking or escaping, it's a miracle!

For this kind of good thing, Lin Wen directly took off the shimmer ring and replaced it with the Bloodthorn Ring. After wearing the ring, the spikes on the inner wall of the bloodthorn ring pierced into Lin Wen's skin, and as the spikes began to suck blood, the yellow-brown ring became bright red little by little, Lin Wen tried to play with it twice, and the bloodthorn ring was firmly fixed on Lin Wen's hand as if it had taken root.

Escape into the shadows! Lin Wen activated the ability of the ring, and as soon as the ring in his hand tightened, Lin Wen suddenly felt that the scene in front of him had turned into black and white like an old-fashioned movie, and countless gray and white air currents were rotating in the air, and everything looked very weird, like the world after death.

Ten seconds passed quickly, and the black and white world reappeared, and the original bright red ring turned yellow-brown again, and began to slowly suck blood to regain its bright red color.

One word to describe: Praise!

……

"Carré, are you really not going to the academy with us?" At the entrance of the airport in Medin City, Harvey asked Lin Wen again.

"Nope." Lin Wen shook his head, "Go ahead, that's not my way." ”

In the Akara Continent, most of the newcomers will choose to enter the academy to learn knowledge and combat skills, and will not leave the academy until they become silver and achieve the silver body. Generally, it takes about 7-8 years for a warrior with ordinary qualifications to grow to the silver level in the academy. This kind of steady growth from the academy is called the academic school.

Of course, not everyone likes to stay in the academy honestly, and there are a small number of people who are crawling in the field from the apprenticeship level, walking with the god of death every day, these people are called the actual combat school, compared to the academic school, the strength of the actual combat school grows at different speeds, and the fast one or two years can achieve the silver body, and the slow one or even a lifetime can't, of course, more practical combat schools will die tragically in the wild if they can't even reach the black iron rank.

Relative to the price, the combat effectiveness of the actual combat faction of the same class is about 30% higher than that of the academic faction, and it can almost be crushed one-on-one, and it is more free, which is what Lin Wen wants.

Waving goodbye to Harvey and the others, Lin Wen turned around and went out of the city, before starting to level up, he had to catch an ordinary wild wolf, Gora's appearance was too ostentatious.

With the Heart of the Beast set, Lin Wen has one more pet space than hunters of the same level, and can carry two pets. Of course, it's just carrying, not 2 at a time.

Outside the city of Medin, Lin Wen didn't go far before he found a wild wolf foraging for food.

Taming the pet, Lin Wen stretched out his hands to the wolf, and an invisible spiritual force swept towards the wolf, frantically entangled in the wolf's soul.
