Chapter 13 There is no doubt that we will do this
He Xie sat at the dining table with a pill in front of him. It was large, round, wrapped in cellophane, labeled, with strange words written on it.
Qin Lang called this thing an "educational pill", claiming that swallowing it would allow him to gain the knowledge and abilities of a gunslinger - in short, it would turn him directly into a seasoned gunman who is proficient in shooting, rather than a rookie with good marksmanship but lack actual combat experience - He Xie was skeptical, and at the same time heartbroken, because this strange pill of unknown origin actually cost him 2000 bonus points.
And it cannot be returned.
At this point, He Xie could only pray that Qin Lang did not go crazy or deliberately deceive him.
"It's better if what you're saying is true." I don't know how many times he repeated the phrase, he picked up the pill, tore open the cellophane, and swallowed it, only to almost choke.
Qin Lang handed over a glass of water very promptly.
This made He Xie feel a little better, although he was choked in the next second.
Guo Bo did it. He didn't say anything before, and only now did he ask Qin Lang, "What is that thing?" Its instruction manual reminds me of the Deadpool movie, where Francis' man fools Wade. The words Wilson said when he was subjected to the super-soldier transformation experiment. β
He Xie immediately went crazy with anger. "So you're also doubting the effect of that thing? And as a result, do nothing, just watch me swallow 2000 points? β
"Calm down," Mr. Guo said, but his words were having the opposite effect, "Anyway, you've swallowed it." β
"I ......"
He Xie was about to jump up, but Qin Lang spoke: "Fourth profession." β
"What?"
"The fourth profession, science fiction, is written by Larry. Niven. β
Names that have not been heard of, whether they are the titles of books or the authors. However, He Xie understood what Qin Lang meant. "The pill I swallowed is the stuff in that book?"
"Almost."
"What do you mean almost?"
"There are only a few kinds of pills with a clear purpose mentioned in the novel, but there are at least a few thousand pills in the exchange list, that is, these things are actually made by the main god himself according to the novel."
"But the effect is the same?"
"Everything that the exchange system offers is made by the Lord God, and if we start to suspect that it offers counterfeit products, it can't be strengthened."
Qin Lang's explanation was reasonable, but He Xie still couldn't be completely relieved - he was still heartbroken about the two-thirds points he had paid for it.
"I didn't feel a little change."
"It takes a few hours for the pills to take effect." Qin Lang suggested, "You'd better sleep for a while." β
Since he said so, and he didn't get a good rest when he was on Skull Island, He Xie accepted it very obediently, and went back to the bedroom to take a nap, but he collapsed on the bed unconscious, and it took ten hours to wake up. When he reappeared in the living room after washing up, he immediately found that the rest of the people were waiting for him.
"How does it feel?" Qin Lang asked.
"It's the same as usual." He Xie shook his head and began to feel heartache about his points again, "There is still no change." β
"Come here." Qin Lang made a gesture, led him to the dining table, pointed out to him the pile of gun parts placed on it, and then asked, "Load them up." β
"It can't ......"
"Do as I say."
His attitude was very tough, Mo Fei and Guo Bo were also watching, He Xie could only do so, with a mood of chasing dead ducks to the shelves. But strange things happened the moment he touched the parts, and they suddenly felt unusually familiar, his mind was full of relevant memories, and the movements of his hands were completely instinctive. In a short time, he finished all his work and placed a loaded pistol on the table.
He Xie took a step back, half surprised and half suspicious to look at Qin Lang: "This is the effect of the pill?" β
Qin Lang didn't answer, but motioned for him to continue. "Try to hit that coin."
The coin he said was placed on the other side of the room, about fifteen meters or a little farther away, He Xie felt that even if he aimed carefully, he might not be able to touch its edge, but in fact, after he picked up the pistol, he didn't aim at all and fired it, it was still an instinctive reaction of the brain and body.
But the bullet did not hit the target.
He Xie was very embarrassed, feeling that his face was feverish, and he couldn't say a word.
Qin Lang walked over and took the pistol from his hand, patted him on the shoulder again to express comfort, and then said: "This is the problem now, you have the knowledge and skills provided by pills, and you will react instinctively, but your body itself does not have the corresponding qualities, just like just now, the moment you shoot, the recoil causes your hand to shake slightly, so it will miss." β
"That's why the Lord God put this pill on a first-level enhancement item and the price tag is only 2,000 points?" Guo Bo said that it is not a question, but a confirmation.
He Xie felt that they might have been discussing this issue just now......
Or something else.
Qin Lang seemed to be mentioning a certain plan: "But it's still a good deal, which means that as long as we have the right person, we can immediately improve the combat effectiveness of the squad." β
It made He Xie a little uncomfortable, not because Qin Lang, Guo Bo, and Mo Fei were making small moves behind his backβafter all, this kind of thing would happen sooner or laterβbut because he seemed to be treated as an experiment, or the kind that was displayed in the shop window, and was used by Qin Lang to prove to others that the pills of the main god were indeed effective.
He must have been a businessman, a profiteer, and he was selling illegal products, poisonous and harmful, or things of mass destruction.
He Xie didn't know how close his guess was to the truth.
He was just complaining, and he had to try to keep this thought in his heart, pretending not to care, and focusing his eyes on other aspects.
"What do you want to do?"
"We're going to exchange some pills," Qin Lang said, "for the newcomer." β
Guo Bo went on to add: "If we meet a newcomer whose physical fitness meets the standard, we will get a new person who can compete with Freud. Lawton is comparable to a gunslinger. β
"Who?"
"Death Shooter."
He Xie remembered Will. The role that Smith played. "Suicide Squad?"
Guo Bo showed a disappointed expression. "Yes."
He Xie didn't understand why he was disappointed, just as he didn't understand what was good about Qin Lang's plan. "But why do we need so many death shooters? Not all story worlds can be cleared with guns. β
"That's right," Qin Lang nodded, then shook his head, "But a death shooter is better than a newcomer who can only scream." β
He Xie disagreed with him: even if he wanted the newcomer to come in handy immediately, pills that turned people into gunmen were not the only option.
"We can use other pills."
Qin Lang then shook his head. "Among the pills that belong to a class of enhancement items, this is the most cost-effective, and the rest are either too expensive or useless."
"For example?"
"You can exchange 500 points for pills that turn people into fighters, the question is, first, it requires more physical fitness from the user, and second, can fighters deal with aliens, terminators, or swarms of bugs? Or exchange 8,000 points for pills that turn people into starfighter pilots? This kind of stuff is obviously not going to be handed over to newcomers. Besides, we're going to have to get a starfighter. β
Qin Lang stopped, and Guo Bo continued to add a supplementary explanation to his speech: "The price of a standard dual-ion engine fighter is 250,000 points. β
But he confused He Xie again. "What's the double ion?"
"TIE fighters." Guo Bo said dejectedly, "Star Wars TIE fighter. β
"Uh......" He Xie grabbed his hair, "This kind of thing can also be exchanged?" β
"Yes, and it's a class of things."
He Xie once again refreshed his unbelievable understanding of the Lord God.
In fact, if he looked closely at the database, he would see that a class of enhancements and equipment was an extremely large category, including the cheapest steel dagger worth 5 points and starships worth millions of points, all of which had no special effects - bloodlines, abilities, racial traits, spell enchantments, etc. - that could only be used by a single player and could only be redeemed with bonus points.
From a certain point of view, this means that the main god doesn't care about the reincarnation's unlimited points, because in the end, the reward points are actually not much use: all items of level 2 and above require another reward to be exchanged, and kill points can only be obtained by killing the hostile reincarnation.
Qin Lang had already carefully studied the rules, so he didn't care about exchanging his reward points for newcomers, as long as they could be useful.
Even better, he's not the only one who doesn't care about his bonus points.
"Anyway, that's what our plan is." He turned back to the original topic, "You can take out 6,000 points, plus Guo Bo and I can each take out 1,000 points, theoretically we can exchange for four pills." β
He Xie felt a toothache. "You're so generous."
"But we're not going to exchange four pills."
"Uh......"
"Let's exchange two pills, then 2,000 points for weapons, and the last 2,000 points for you."
This unexpected surprise made He Xie a little dizzy. "Me?"
Qin Lang said all his thoughts. "Your body has to be strengthened, as well as the armor and weapons you need. We try to solve these problems with 3000 points. β
He Xie was so moved that he was about to cry. "I don't know what to say......"
"Don't panic." Qin Lang said, "These points are not free, there is a condition attached. β
"What is it?" Emotion and joy were quickly replaced by panic.
Qin Lang turned his gaze to Mo Fei. "In the next few days, the lieutenant colonel will do some training for you."
"Be careful." Guo Bo smiled and reminded, "It may hurt." β
Mo Fei stretched out his right hand at this time and showed He Xie what he had been holding, a short, thick black handle, one of which was polished as smooth as a mirror. He Xie has seen many similar things, in many different places, including movies, animations, games, toy stores, and various cosplay activities.
A lightsaber.
Now he knew what Mo Fei's power was.
He Xie's whole face collapsed.
