Chapter 7: Death Reforge
"Okay, Stark, don't get excited, Jia Shuai is also in difficulty, after all, everyone's points are earned with their lives, and it does take a certain amount of time and patience to convince them to hand in the map uniformly."
A rather sweet-looking girl took the initiative to stand up and act as a peacemaker.
Luo Jie couldn't remember the woman's name anymore, and vaguely remembered what it seemed to be the Minister of Literature and Art, who was very kind, and spoke softly to whom.
"I'll figure it out about the map." Jia Shuai frowned, unconsciously clenched the drink bottle in his hand, and could see that he was also under great psychological pressure, "In your opinion, what should we do now?" ”
Stark crossed his arms, pinched his already layered chin for a moment, and affirmed, "Find weapons, gather food supplies." ”
"Grass, I also know these two, can you be more specific? Like where to find these things? A dark-skinned boy complained dissatisfiedly.
Stark wasn't happy either, and pulled his neck and retorted, "I don't even have a map, even if I tell you where to look, do you know where to go?" ”
Jia Shuai pressed his temples with a headache, although Stark's words were ugly, his words were not rough, and it was really troublesome without a map.
"Shopping street."
After a short while, a place name popped out of Stark's mouth.
"What?" Jia Shuai was stunned.
"In the game, the shopping street is the place where the variety of weapons is most varied and the easiest to obtain, and there should also be a supermarket where you can get supplies of food and water...... However, I don't remember how the shopping street walked through the game, and I guess even if I did, it wouldn't be useful, as at the moment, the scale of this Good Luck City is obviously much larger than the game map, and the locations of the various facilities will definitely change. ”
"Well, thank you." Jia Shuai got up and patted Stark's thick shoulder, "The information you provided is very useful, I will rest for the night today, and I will organize someone to find that shopping street tomorrow." ”
……
"Shopping street, ......"
On the map, along the safe house, Luo Jie found the location of the shopping street and turned the surveillance footage there.
The shopping street is an indoor pedestrian street with a total length of about 150 meters from south to north, with various shops on both sides, and a leisure plaza and pedestrian path in the middle.
Before the zombie virus broke out, it used to be the most prosperous central business district in Good Luck City, but now it has become the most terrifying zombie base camp.
After the surveillance screen switched several times in succession, Luo Jie found a familiar figure on the screen.
Man in sunglasses.
At this moment, the other party was squatting behind a pot of green plants at the door of the bathroom, gritting his teeth and staring at the dense group of corpses on the street in front of him.
Luo Jie suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh a little.
It is estimated that the man in sunglasses is regretting his previous decision to abandon the newcomer, so that now he doesn't even have a helper who can lure away the zombies for him.
Of course, this state of affairs will not last long.
Luo Jie remembered that in his previous life, at noon the next day, the man in sunglasses reached a cooperation agreement with Jia Shuai, arranged a trap to kill a large number of zombies, and successfully entered the shopping street while also gaining a large amount of points.
It's a pity that Luo Jie is only one person, and he doesn't have the ability to reproduce the trap in his previous life, otherwise the zombies in the shopping street alone will be enough to make up half of the points required for an E-gold weapon.
"Forget it, let's be realistic."
Luo Jie shook his head self-deprecatingly, and began to rummage through the personal lockers in the security room one by one.
He soon opened more than 20 iron cabinets in the room and seized a large number of guns, ammunition, electric batons, security uniforms, and a bunch of personal belongings with Midi's characteristics.
Luo Jie's hand only had 700 points left, which was not enough to pack all these things and take them away, so he could only temporarily authenticate a whiteboard armor and a pistol.
【Good Luck City Security Uniform】
Type: Armor
Quality: F (white)
Grade: LV1
Intensity: 25
Synopsis: A handsome black uniform with the badge of Good Luck City on the left arm, and a light bulletproof vest, but the bulletproof effect is very suspicious.
Certification cost - 100 points.
【Red M92F Pistol】
Type: Semi-automatic pistol
Quality: F (green)
Grade: LV1
Power: 50
Introduction: Beretta manufactures a 9MM semi-automatic pistol, one of the limited editions of the Olympic rings.
Certification cost - 500 points.
As for the bullets, Luo Jie brought a full six magazines of 10 rounds, as well as 120 scattered rounds.
Uncertified bullets cannot be brought back to the real world, but they are not used in the illusion, as long as the firearm is certified.
Looking at the only 100 points left on the main panel, Luo Jie couldn't help frowning.
It seems that a lot of points have been earned, but there are also a lot of things that can be spent.
"Looks like it's time to earn some points......"
Luo Jie didn't want to earn enough 200,000 points before the end of the illusion, but at least he had to take away the remaining two weapons, one blue and one purple.
In the fantasy world, the most cost-effective way to earn points is undoubtedly to complete various hidden tasks.
However, Luo Jie did not plan to choose this method for the time being.
Because in his case, there's actually a more efficient option.
Luo Jie's gaze subconsciously fell on the [Red M92F Pistol] in his hand, the expression on his face seemed to be a little struggling, and finally took a deep breath and resolutely put the muzzle of the gun against his temple.
Bang——!
When Luo Jie opened his eyes again and looked at the familiar room in front of him, the expression on his face revealed a trace of confusion.
But in just an instant, his eyes returned to clarity, and without hesitation, he jumped up from the ground and grabbed the mobile phone on the opposite computer desk.
He had put the phone there in advance, in order to record the whole process of his death recasting.
The video shows that at the moment when the gunshot rang out, his body fell violently in the opposite direction of the gun, and then there was no movement, as if he was really dead.
Ten seconds later, changes began to take place, and the wound on his head began to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.
No, it is not accurate to use the word healing to describe it, in fact the entire wound recovery is like rebuilding it out of thin air, and the gradual process of regeneration of body tissues is completely invisible.
After another second, he opened his eyes, thus ending the entire death reforgment process.
In other words, the first ten seconds are equivalent to complete death, and from the eleventh second onwards is the real reforge...... Although it is not the same as imagined, if this time difference is used well, it can achieve a lot of tactical counter-kills. ”
Luo Jie pinched his chin and muttered to himself, he casually deleted the video on his phone, so as not to be discovered about his biggest secret.
The effect of Death Reforged is undoubtedly powerful, but it is not omnipotent, at least in this illusion at the moment, and it can even be said to be quite clumsy.
Luo Jie can fully imagine that if he accidentally dies in the siege of the corpses, what awaits him will not be resurrected with full blood on the spot, but the zombies will be happy to find a piece of meat that can never be eaten.
Of course, he didn't just do this test to test the time of reforge, but to determine an inner conjecture.
Luo Jie moved his body on the spot, holding the sword with both hands and swinging it with all his might.
After Deathforge was gone, all the fatigue and soreness of the previous battle were gone, and his strength returned to its peak level.
And judging from the degree of lucidity shown by the brain, it seems that the mental power has also been restored.
Sure enough, as he guessed, this [Death Recast] ability is obviously not as simple as "resurrecting in situ with full blood".
[Death Recast] (Passive) - Revive in a full state for a certain period of time after death (10 seconds + body defect percentage x 30 seconds), and clear all positive and negative effects from the caster.
When Luo Jie saw this line of skill description, he noticed that there was a very subtle word in it.
- Complete state.
That's right, due to the rarity of resurrection items and skills, he still clearly remembers that whether it is an S-class item [Tail of the Immortal Bird] or an S-level skill [Blessing of the Goddess of Life], its skill description is "full state", not "complete state" in the [Death Recast] description.
The intact state refers specifically to the physical body, and its scope is limited to the recovery of internal and external injuries and the repair of severed limbs.
The complete state, on the other hand, represents the restoration of all attributes, and as it stands, it even includes a loss of energy.
Although the difference between the two is only one word, the effect is to mean the difference between heaven and earth.
"Since the conjecture is correct, let's get started......"
Luo Jie wiped the blood from his face in the mirror in the security room.
The new and straight black security uniform, coupled with his full mental outlook and harmless smile at the moment, I can't tell that this is a zombie butcher who has just been killed from the sea of corpses and blood, but it is very shy and green like the big boy next door.
There is no way, he was born with such a deceptive good face, only those who are familiar with him know that this thing is actually all black when it is cut.
Opening the door, the figure with a long sword reappeared in the corridor outside the security room.
It's just that this time he didn't have the cautious temptation he had before, but uncharacteristically rushed straight to the oncoming corpses.
Several zombies let out a roar, and clumsily raised their hands to grab him.
Luo Jie's figure burst up, and the long sword in his hand swirled from left to right with a cold light like a waning moon, and the howling sound of breaking wind brought a scream of death.
Completely ignoring the full force of defense, the sharp blade of the [Ranger Hand Half Sword] sliced through the zombie's rotten muscles and bones one after another, and two disgusting human heads, along with half of the shoulder, and the severed arm were thrown into the air.
After a little retraction, Luo Jie turned around again and slashed a zombie horizontally with a sword almost without pause, and half of his body flew out of a few meters away with his colorful intestines.
"Hell! Cut off! ”
Luo Jie cursed in a low voice, slashed with his backhand, and opened a V-neck for the zombies rushing behind him, and the two halves of his head and shoulders rolled to the sides, splashing dirty blood and falling to the ground.
