Chapter Thirty-Six: A Light and a Refuge in the Bloody Wasteland
In addition to using a bow and arrow, Lawson also tried his hand at using his firearms to activate the Flame Arrow skill.
He was pleasantly surprised that his attempt was successful, and although the bullets were still sprayed from the muzzle, they had the effect of bursting armor-piercing bullets, which undoubtedly greatly enhanced the power of the whiteboard gun.
It's just that there are pros and cons to everything. The downside of this was that the rifling of the spare pistol he used to release the flaming arrows was quickly smoothed out, and even the muzzle was somewhat deformed.
This means that if he does this again, the gun may be completely damaged or even blown up.
Rosen was glad he hadn't experimented with the M1 or MG-42, otherwise he would have been crying if they were damaged.
As he was about to leave the Blood Wasteland, Rosen encountered an unexpected surprise.
It turned out that Vali, who was exploring the path ahead, led him to a temple hidden deep in the jungle.
There are many such temples in Diablo 2, and you can tell at a glance what a temple it is just when you play the game, but at this time, you can only rely on Lawson to try your luck.
And his luck this time was very good, after triggering the altar in the temple, he found that it was actually a gem temple.
After a burst of light, the quality of the cracked skeleton he had originally placed in his backpack was increased to a cracked skeleton, and several of its attributes were improved.
In addition, as more and more monsters are killed, even if the explosion rate is not high, it intermittently allows Lawson to complete the equipment on his body.
It's just that in addition to shoes, other things such as cloth armor, gloves, belts, hats, etc. are all whiteboards, and only the most basic defense can only be said to be better than nothing.
It is worth mentioning that when Lawson cleared out all the monsters he could see in the Blood Wasteland and was about to leave, he saw a Rogge standing on the side of the road with a bow and arrows.
Her name is Flavi.
Before they knew each other, Rosen knew her name.
Because in the past countless times when you farmed Diablo 2, Flavi was like a beacon and shelter in the Blood Wasteland, always able to provide you with protection.
When you're being chased by monsters and running away, just rush near Flavi and arrows will whizz at you.
Although she doesn't say much, and always just a reminder to start with caution, it's really impressive.
At this time, facing Lawson, she still reminded: "Be careful! What is in front of you is dangerous to all holy relics, so be extra cautious when entering, and it is best to find a small station and light it up so that you can evacuate in time if you encounter danger. ”
"Okay, thanks for the reminder, I'll take notice." Rosen thanked her, waved at her, and drove on.
After walking far, Vali, who was squatting in the back compartment, suddenly straightened up, twitched his nose a few times, breathed in the air, and let out a roaring sound.
Rosen was at first puzzled, but soon he saw that the sky in front of him was dark red, and the air was filled with the smell of smoke and burnt flesh.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lawson twisted the handlebars and headed in the direction of the firelight.
After driving forward for another kilometer or two, Lawson saw a house being burned with flames, thick smoke billowing out, not only many Sinking Demons running and jumping outside the house, but even inside the house full of flames, there were still many Sinking Demons running and jumping, as if they were having a carnival here.
Although the flames were fierce and the flames were blazing into the sky, due to the thick darkness that hung over the sky, it was impossible to see the situation from a distance.
Otherwise, Flavi, who is not too far from here, would certainly not be indifferent.
"Vali, kill them all."
Rosen no longer had the luxury of finding any survivors in such a tragic fire, he just gritted his teeth and gave the order coldly.
"Roar." With a roar, Vali jumped out, jumping seven or eight meters away in an instant, and when it fell, it smashed right on the body of a Sinking Demon, and as soon as the giant mouth opened and closed, it bit off the Sinking Demon's neck with a click.
"Bang bang, dang."
Rosen first released an inside look, then pulled out the M1 and began to pull the trigger.
This time he didn't use rapid fire, but since the M1 rifle itself was not slow, it was completely able to suppress the attacks of the Fallen Demons, so that they could never rush close.
Every time a magazine is empty, his hand will be loaded with a new one, and it can basically be seamless.
This is naturally due to the fact that when he increased his base combat to LV6, he also gained an effect of +1 reload speed.
Although there were at least fifteen or sixteen of the Fallen Demons roaming outside the house, it didn't take much effort for Lawson to get rid of them because they were all lowest-level mobs.
This time, they were quite generous, and every now and then bits and pieces fell out of the bullet to the ground.
Lawson even saw a blue ring fall out.
It's just that he didn't rush to pick it up now, because with a sharp roar came from the other side of the house, three graceful white figures rushed out.
They hold knives in one hand and shields in the other, even if they are wearing armor, it is still difficult to hide their hot figures, but their appearance is quite ugly, which makes people can't help but think of a female corpse that has been soaked in water for four or five days.
In the face of these dark hunters who belonged to demons, Rosen of course would not be merciful, and immediately launched a rapid fire.
......"Bang bang
Bullets flew wildly, raining down like a raging storm.
However, the three dark hunters did not fall to the ground as Rosen had expected.
One of them staggered backwards as bullets slammed into her armor, and flesh and dark red blood splattered out, but she never died.
The other two raised their shields in their hands, stood in front of them, and rushed forward side by side.
"Dangdangdang......"
The 7.62 mm rifle has a muzzle velocity of 865 m/s when it flies out of the muzzle, which makes its muzzle kinetic energy reach 3597 joules, which is not insignificant, but now on the shields of the two dark hunters, although the fire is splashing, the great strength and skill effects make them retreat from time to time, but they are not hurt much.
"Ahh
With a cry of rage, the furthest Dark Hunter fell to the ground with a thud, a white soul flying up from his body, dissipating from the howl, and dropping a piece of equipment.
"Ahhh With a strange scream, three more white figures rushed out of a forest in the distance.
They are dressed and look very similar to those of the Dark Hunters, but they hold long three-strand forks in their hands.
Lawson glanced at their attributes, and saw that two were the Dark Spearwoman, the Demon Minions, while the remaining one was dark gold: Rotten - Sharpener - Maggot, Demon, Ghost Strike.
Not only that, but even the weapon in its hand was not a three-strand fork, but a spear.
Based on Lawson's previous experience, any such monster is the so-called small BOSS, especially the attribute in it, the ghost strike, is quite powerful, and it is very likely to be fatal if you come coldly.
As for other prefixes, such as Rot, it indicates that its attacks are poisonous.
As soon as he thought of this, Lawson immediately stepped on the accelerator, accelerated and rushed forward, widening the distance between the two sides a little, and then took out an MK2 grenade, pulled out the safety pin, launched a throwing boomerang and threw it.
"Boom."
At this time, the Dark Hunter and the Dark Spearwoman were getting together, and the grenades that fell into the pile of people immediately exploded in all directions.
Although their shields and armor can block bullets, they can't withstand the fragments and shockwaves of grenades, and they can't stop the poison that their abilities attach to shrapnel.
And so as the Dark Hunter and the Dark Spearwoman fell to the ground and roared to their feet, they felt as if they had been covered in a layer of green paint.
At this point, Rosen put down his M1 Garand rifle, replaced it with a long-range gray-and-white bow, and began to fire rapidly at them.
"Woo Woo Woo ......"
The arrows pierced through the air, and when they landed on the Dark Hunters and Dark Gunslingers, they were more lethal and destructive than the M1 Garand rifle.
"Puff puff ......"
Flesh and blood splattered, and the Dark Hunter and the Dark Female Gunner, who had already been weakened by the poison, fell to the ground in a scream, and even white souls dissipated.
"Poof."
Another arrow was fired, hitting the heart of the little boss, and the crimson blood spurted out with the arrow that passed through the body.
It also cried out in a terrible, angry and desperate cry, and the white miserable soul roared into the sky, and then dissipated again.
Rosen didn't know where it had gone, and he didn't care, he was more concerned now about how much it dropped when it died.
Of course, the 50 merit points and 30 experience points at the risk of its death, of course, Rosen also laughed unceremoniously.
Lawson rode a half-track motorcycle to the front, and when he saw the things dropped by the little boss, he couldn't help but curse the poor ghost.
Because it only dropped four flasks and an unidentified blue shield.
Because of the lack of firmness, Lawson didn't know what the attributes of the shield were, but just thinking about it knew that it wasn't a good thing.
The only thing worth mentioning is that there is a purple rejuvenation potion in those four bottles of potion, which can instantly restore 35% of life and mana, which is definitely quite a good thing, and it is worth a lot of money even if you sell it.
The remaining three flasks were a light healing potion and two light mana potions, and for Lawson, it could only be said that something was better than nothing.
At this time, Vali also ran out of the burning house, and judging from the blood that remained on the corner of his mouth, it was estimated that he had bitten the mob to death just now.
Lawson looked at its body, checked its blood again, and was relieved to find that it had not been burned by the fire in the house.
Checking over WALL-E's backpack, he saw a few pieces of gear he had picked up.
There was a blue ring in it, and Lawson took out the only remaining identification scroll to identify it, and then pouted.
"Bump Energy Ring, +1 Energy, +10 Energy Max."
Although this kind of equipment increases attributes, its usefulness is quite average, and putting it on Amazon is equivalent to making the mana a little thicker.
In this regard, Rosen is quite disdainful, but his fingers are idle, and he puts them on casually.
