Chapter Twenty-Eight: Preparing to Go to a New World, Ascension, LV6

Rosen didn't know what was going to happen after he was gone.

After leaving the archery hall, he even thought about buying a recurve bow, but he immediately dismissed the idea.

One is that archery needs a venue, and even if he buys it, there is no place to use it. Second, although bows and arrows are not difficult to buy, they are not cheap, and a slightly better entry-level recurve bow is at least four or five hundred, and all kinds of arrows are even more expensive and distressing.

Moreover, Lawson was not short of bows. He also has in his backpack the reward he received for his quest in Torchlight 2: the ranged Grey Bow. Whether it's attack power, rate of fire, or special effects, it's not bad. It's just that he can't get it out of his backpack and into the real world.

Although he gave up his plan to buy a bow, Lawson's addiction to archery was completely hooked, so when he decided to go to the game world next, he chose Diablo 2 almost without much hesitation.

The background of Diablo 2 is simply a story about a war between light and darkness, good and evil, angels and demons, and the heroes of humanity stand up, sweep away the darkness, and finally usher in the light.

Although the process of victory is inevitably complicated, and the angels and demons involved in the background of the game are not idle, the relationship between them and grievances are even more tortuous and bizarre, and the love-hate entanglement may not be able to be explained clearly even if you write one or two million words, and it is definitely difficult for others to sort it out, but this is not important to Lawson.

Because he is very self-aware, he knows that with his current strength, he simply does not have the ability to delve too deeply into the truth under the plot, so it is better to stop for the time being.

Victory will be mine, but for now I'd better take it easy. Rosen thought so, but instead of entering the world of Diablo 2 immediately, he came to the shelter space first.

After completing the last mission to save Private Ryan, although he received the reward, he didn't have time to improve his strength, and before he was about to enter the new game world, of course, Rosen had to try to enhance his combat power as much as possible.

Looking at the 1,514 gold coins in his backpack, Lawson had a rare sense of what it meant to be wealthy, so he decided to splurge it.

When he looked at the light curtain in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a burst of heat.

Don't look at the plot of saving Ryan is relatively simple, Rosen has not experienced a long time, but there are really a lot of various weapons that appear in the whole movie, and they are all presented in front of Rosen for him to buy at this time.

Considering that Diablo 2's map is really not small, it will definitely face a situation of constantly running around in the future, so the first thing he wants to buy is a transportation tool.

Although he had always wanted to develop Chacaron Wali into a mount, it was only an idea for now, so a vehicle with a durable leather and decent speed became necessary.

After hesitating for half a second between the jeep and the half-track, he chose the latter.

Although the halftrack motorcycle has a lot of drawbacks, the fact that it is handsome enough to ride is enough for Lawson to make up his mind.

In fact, the main reason that really made Lawson make such a choice was that the half-track motorcycle was better adapted to a wide range of harsh terrain.

As for issues such as being slower than wheeled motorcycles and being easily damaged, Lawson believes that what the system produces should improve.

The price of the half-track motorcycle is not expensive, it only costs Lawson 350 gold coins, which makes him really feel like he has earned it.

Then he set his sights on the remaining heavy weapons, such as the 20mm caliber Gebirgsflak38, or the MG-42 and M1919 machine guns, which were still powerful.

After defending the bridge, Rosen realized how important a sustained and powerful firepower was to a fast-shooting man, and he had used the Gebirgsflak38, and of course wanted to continue its ferocity in other worlds.

It's just that when he saw that just one Gebirgsflak38 would cost 1000 gold coins, and each shell would cost 10 gold coins, he immediately gave up the idea of buying one.

Lawson then did not hesitate for long between the MG-42 and the M1919 to choose the former.

Because throughout World War II, whether it was in the freezing and snowy weather of the Soviet Union at minus 40 degrees Celsius, or in the low bush of Normandy: whether it was the hot desert of North Africa or the rubble heaps of Berlin, MG42 was a nightmare for enemy troops on the battlefield.

Throughout World War II, the MG42 was the best machine gun, with the advantage of having the fastest rate of fire, 1200 rounds per minute, an average of 20 per second, extremely high reliability and suppression, and the fact that it was very easy to change the barrel in just a few seconds, while the disadvantages came with the advantage that it consumed a lot of ammunition.

However, for Lawson who has a backpack, the large amount of ammunition consumed is not a disadvantage at all, and no matter how many bullet chains are piled up in the backpack space, they only occupy a grid.

Despite its many advantages, the price of the MG-42 is not expensive, only 300 gold coins, which is much cheaper than anti-aircraft guns, and as for bullets, it is even cheaper, basically 10 gold coins can buy 50,000 rounds of ammunition.

Lawson did not hesitate to buy 500,000 rounds, even if it was enough to fight a small battle.

Immediately, after Lawson bought twenty MK2 grenades for 200 gold coins, he ended the purchase.

He was going to bring the rest of the gold into Diablo 2 before using it.

Then Lawson first added 1 attribute point obtained in the previous world to agility, and then he felt that his body seemed to become lighter, but when he felt it carefully, it seemed to be an illusion.

He didn't pay much attention to it, and immediately consumed merit points to improve his existing skills.

The first to be promoted by him was Basic Range.

Originally, Rosen thought that such a basic skill was of little use, but now he realizes that it is equivalent to the cornerstone of long-range skills, and it must not be ignored.

Since it is a basic skill, it does not cost much merit points to upgrade the level, and at first it only costs 20 merit points to upgrade one level.

At the beginning, Rosen wanted to improve this skill when he first got it, but at that time, he had just entered the game world not long ago, and the merit value in his hand was really not much, and he ignored it later.

It wasn't until I went to archery today that I suddenly realized that this basic skill doesn't seem to have any strong special effects, but it is just the basic, and it is really sloppy.

As Rosen meditated in his heart, the basic ranged combat was upgraded from L1 to LV2 in an instant, and he felt that his understanding of ranged weapons had improved somewhat, and the attributes of the basic ranged combat had also changed slightly.

Just as he was about to continue leveling up, he found that upgrading to LV3 actually required 30 merit points.

Could it be that every level up needs to be increased?! Lawson couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, originally he wanted to go up a few more levels, but now he needs to be careful with his calculations.

After upgrading again, Lawson saw that it required 40 merit points to upgrade to LV4, so he was basically sure that his guess was correct.

After a little calculation of how many merit points would be required to be promoted to level ten and eighth, even Lawson, who had a lot of merit points in his hands, felt a little black in front of his eyes.

It's still like this for a basic ranged battle, and I really don't know how much merit points will cost to other active skills.

If you don't buy equipment, you don't know that you get less gold, and if you don't upgrade your skills, you don't know if the merit value is not enough. Lawson secretly complained in his heart, but still chose to continue to upgrade.

As Lawson raised the base ranged to level 6, its stats changed.

"Basic long-range combat, mastering and proficient in all long-range weapons, including but not limited to: firearms, bows, crossbows, slingshots, throwing guns, etc."

"The current level is LV6, which is an intermediate level, allowing you to be proficient in the use of various ranged combat weapons, and have a certain amplification effect. With a ranged weapon at the current level, gain +50% accuracy, +50% projectile stability, and +30% critical strike chance when shooting at targets. ”

"Since this skill breaks through to the intermediate level, you will be able to obtain one of the following effects: A: Accuracy +1, B: Stability +1, C: Vision +1, D: Reload Speed +1, please choose."

Although Lawson felt that these special effects were quite ordinary, but in line with the principle that Fang Zheng was also picked up for nothing, not in vain, he chose D after a little thought.

Since he consumes too many bullets in combat, unless he has a gun with unlimited bullets in his magazine, reload speed is always his biggest headache, and it never hurts to get some improvement.

"Gain +1 reload speed, this effect is passive, and when you use any ranged weapon, the reload speed will be reduced by 50% from the original one."

At the same time, he had a lot of tips and tricks in his mind to quickly change magazines, quickly wind crossbows, and shoot arrows continuously and quickly when firing a bow, so that the attack never stops, and these skills are directly integrated into his body's memory.

I seem to have picked up a treasure, and Lawson couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, because he realized that with these skills, he could use his bow and arrow to perform rapid fire, which would inevitably increase the rate of fire again, so that the target could enjoy the rain of arrows.

After thinking about the future for a while, Rosen had already suppressed the excitement in his heart and looked away from the basic battle.

After all, although the basic distance combat is good, it is only a passive skill after all, and it is not direct to bring the improvement of his own strength, and it takes a lot of merit to upgrade to five levels in a row again, but if he only upgrades one or two levels and can't trigger the special effect, it is meaningless, so he decisively stopped adding more points.

Then Rosen set his sights on rapid fire, but when he saw the number of merit points needed for upgrades, he couldn't help but sigh that the merit points in his hand were too small.

It turns out that it takes 50 points to upgrade from L1 to LV2, which doesn't seem like much, but it takes 100 points to upgrade from LV2 to LV3, and so on, if you need to spend an additional 50 merit points for each upgrade, you need a total of 500 merit points to upgrade to LV5, and 300 merit points to upgrade to LV6 (*)

Of course, Rosen can afford these merit points now, but the thought of the subsequent level increase makes him feel a pain in his flesh.

Without much hesitation, Rosen raised the rapid-fire to LV6.

"Rapid Fire, Rapid Fire, knocks enemies back, and breaks through their armor, attacking at 80% of the effective range of the ranged weapon used."

"At current level 6, the mana cost is -18 per second, causing 30% weapon DPS, +5 click-back ability, and -3 defense for 10 seconds."

"This skill reaches a medium level, gaining a special stat: one out of every two shots may cause a bullet to ricochet and a 30% chance to hit an enemy."

Originally, Lawson was still a little unhappy that this active skill could not freely choose special effects, but after seeing the special attributes of this reward, he was overjoyed.

Because it means that the number of his attacks has increased in disguise, from two attacks to three attacks, even if this additional ricochet attack only has a 30% chance of triggering, it is quite rare.

Don't forget that the effect of the Rapid Fire skill is to increase the attack speed, so the 30% chance of triggering may not seem high, but it is actually not low.

The data is a meaning, just look at it, don't take it seriously, or I'll lose.
