Chapter 3 A Silver Sword Breaks Through the Last Days
The pale light rises and dies. The mutilated corpses and blood shreds of the puddle on the ground faded away, and then the silence of the pin drop was broken by retching and whimpering.
"lumps, remember how you got here, right? There's only one last chance, and it's good to die, and you don't have to think about anything other than hell. ”
Sweeping her gaze over the faces of her surroundings, pale from the face of death, as if mocking the poor fellow who had died, Miss Furry Bear declared:
"So you vomit? You'll be able to see from then on, thanks to the tutorial quest that doesn't support excretion, but it won't be so lucky in the future! Well, take pity on you fools, and I'll allow you to choose a weapon before you go into battle! ”
With her voice, a row of weapons cabinets rose on the floor of the hall.
No one could tell how they came to be, but they were real weapons cabinets. Dark green, ten meters wide shelves, there are hundreds of weapons sorted out, even more than guns and ammunition, and there are long swords, war hammers, sheep's heads and other cold weapons hanging in one corner......
The crowd immediately erupted - although they all had pistols, it was clear that any weapon was a layer of protection in this unknown world.
As for the guy who just got his head blown off a moment ago? Anyway, it's just a stranger, compared to the things that are about to be acquired, Who_cares?
"Start with Pikachu, but why is it inserted like this, what's the trouble?"
Rubbing his ears, which were itchy from the sound of gunshots, Wang Julin whispered to himself and leaned over to the cabinet. It is indeed terrible for a living person to pass away in front of his eyes, but it is not enough for him to fall into fear and not be able to extricate himself, and the news revealed in the casual speech of 'Miss Xiong' just now is actually more terrifying than that of a dead person.
'Last Chance', 'Atonement' and 'Hell'?
The simple words seem to uncover the corner of the fog, and the scene behind it is enough to make people shudder.
Well, at least for the time being, don't worry about 'taking sides', why not ask some more questions, like why are you here? What are you going to do?
After weighing it up a bit, he shook his head - the 'adventure' had just begun, and it was too dangerous to expose his weaknesses to everyone. No one can guarantee whether those two 'veterans' will treat the newcomers who know nothing as a burden, and judging from what happened just now, these 'companions' are even more difficult to rely on, and the ghost knows if they will choose to betray at a critical moment because of their 'flaws', even if it is one or two unintentional coaxing, the trouble caused is not small.
So the more pragmatic question is, how to choose.
On the shelves, rifles, pistols, submachine guns and even grenades are readily available, each with three or four different styles. In addition, there are magazines and paper-wrapped bullets that are neatly or haphazardly arranged......
Famous guns such as the M16, the Desert Eagle, or the 'Angel King' have been occupied by five or six people. A yellow-haired guy was holding a handful, and he was spraying words like "rate of fire" and "diffusion surface" with a military atmosphere, which attracted the attention of almost everyone.
Luckily, the cabinets were so large that they didn't look crowded even when a dozen people were gathered in one corner. What's even more amazing is that there is an inexhaustible supply of weapons - take one and the same one will appear in the same place at the same time. But as Miss Mao Bear said, only one weapon is 'allowed' to be selected - two are taken out, and one of them disappears and returns to its original position at the same time, and the person who has taken out one weapon can no longer even reach into the cabinet...... Unless you put it back in.
So with a little observation, Wang Julin doesn't care about starting to 'browse' from a corner that few people care about.
'Colt submachine gun.
Weight, 6 lbs., minimum used force: 6.
Quality, ordinary
Recommended two-handed weapons, weapon attachments - external magazine, ammunition: 9mm bullets, 20% chance of jamming. Lethality, 1-3
The submachine gun, based on the famous M16 assault rifle, was designed to provide riot police with enough firepower. The problem is that the imitation is too similar, even the glitch is the same. ’
'Bobosha submachine gun.
Weight 12 lbs. Minimum force used: 8.
Quality, ordinary
Two-handed weapons, weapon attachments - drums: ammunition 54 pistol cartridges. Lethality 1-4
A famous gun in World War II, the most produced submachine gun. The big drum and the muzzle heat sink are its symbols, there is nothing to say, powerful, strafing fiercely, and a sharp weapon for street fighting. ’
……
Wang Julin frowned.
The supply of weapons to the Matrix seems to have stimulated a strange sense of incongruity in the heart - guns, it seems that there is nothing wrong with them, and the people who arrange them, or even exist, do not need to deceive people in this regard, otherwise they just omit this link. But maybe it was because everything was so natural that he always felt that something was not right.
The gaze that swept over the firearm paused slightly.
There was a silver flash in the pile of bullets. At the innermost point of the shelf, the subtle sheen that obscures behind the magazine pile is easy to ignore.
But Wang Julin did not ignore it.
Because his first job in two years was post-processing in a photo studio - to remove the good sounding description, the job was essentially to modify photos on behalf of clients.
Tinkering with those 'gods' who are crooked in reality in the second dimension can barely be regarded as 'artistic work'. But the most important ability to do this business has little to do with art - changing a white-veiled grandmother to look like a newlywed middle-aged woman does require dissection and drawing skills. Correcting underexposure or overexposure, framing of large and small photos, also requires experience in color and spatial composition; But at least adaobe's software engineers are good enough to make it easy with the help of increasingly powerful software features.
The important thing is that the screen is always off the picture, so you never know if one or two 'gods' will inadvertently find any flaws—slightly unreasonable lines on the background, false eyelashes on the face of a flatbread, or a small piece of foundation that has been washed down by sweat—and then come to you with joy, as if that would make them more like the person in that picture.
What's more, a handler works dozens or hundreds of jobs every day, and if he doesn't want to be deducted from his salary and a bunch of bad comments, he must exercise the most keen ability to capture the smallest details - after paying hundreds of hairs of blood and sweat, Wang Julin has a deep hatred for those small things, and at the worst time, he even has to pay attention to a floor tile of different colors on the sidewalk for a long time.
"Baptism granulates silver bullets. The caliber is 5.45mm, and the lethality is 1-2. Quality, excellent. Special: Hexado (Double Damage, Prevent Regeneration, Limited Specter, Half-Specter, Blood Mutant Creature, Some Magic Creature Creatures)"
took out the little thing, and the faint white words in his sight made Wang Julin's heart move.
5.45 mm, a very bad bullet, the penetration force difference stops little, and it is said that there is a chance of survival if it is hit by a shuttle. But here's the problem...... Baptism granulated silver? In reality, there has never been a bullet made of this material, and this thing is used to destroy it......
Either a vampire or a werewolf?
And, bullets?
A series of sparks flashed through his mind, and he reached for a gun, unloaded the magazine, and dropped the bullets one by one.
Then his brow furrowed a little.
The Colt submachine gun had a long magazine that held at least thirty rounds of ammunition, but now there are only seven bullets in the magazine...... The same is true of Boposana's famous 70-round drum. What's more, there is no point in changing the magazine - it is restored when the reloaded magazine is taken out, and when you pick up the gun and the magazine at the same time, the magazine disappears when you withdraw your hand.
I see.
Without further hesitation, he left the modern-looking equipment area and took a weapon from another shelf that had nothing to do with chemistry.
One meter and two in length, the hilt is one-third the length of the blade, sharp and heavy, with the right weight, and most importantly, it has the smoothest and brightest appearance of any weapon - the spine of the sword has a mirror-like silver coating, and the subtle reflection is like a cold mist.
lt; Baptism silver-plated hand half sword.
Attack damage 1-8
Special, Evil Breaker (deals double damage, hinders regeneration, limited to ghosts, semi-ghosts, blood mutant creatures, and some magical creatures).
Quality, excellent.
Since ancient times, silver has been a representation of the divine, and whether it is poison or magic, it will crumble in front of it...... Depending on the method used, it is equally easy to destroy the will of the weak. ’
Waved it a little and it felt good. So he took it to the side and began to put on his clothes - or would it be better to call it 'equipped'? The moment the training uniform touched the body, the original T-shirt was covered, and even the sneakers on the feet were put on military boots in the blink of an eye. It's a pity that this training uniform is obviously one size bigger, and the color is gray, and when he looked at it in the mirror with the long sword in his hand, Wang Julin found that he was full of style...... From a distance, it looks like a refugee, up close it looks like a person asking for food, and if you look closely, it is engaged in civil construction.
"Why did you choose this?"
The abrupt words in his ear startled him slightly.
After a series of actions just now, he thought that he was quite hidden, at least the elated guys in front of the weapon cabinet didn't have time to pay attention to this peripheral idler...... But obviously there are always people in the world who have a different perspective than others.
Well, it's a different perspective.
A little girl.
Height is about 1.4 meters? The pale blonde hair that is close to silver is scattered over her shoulders, giving her a very comic temperament, but there is no lack of Asian features between the contours of her facial features...... Her fair skin and big blue eyes perfectly illustrate all the advantages of a half-breed, but it also makes her age a little difficult to judge.
But in any case, it should be within the limits that adults want to protect carefully.
Although at the moment, she was holding a short submachine gun in her slender hand.
"Well, ah, why did you choose this......" Wang Julin tried to show the gentlest smile and flipped the long sword: "Look, it's beautiful, right?" There's divine power in it. ”
The ambiguous answer made the little girl frown slightly, and she did not speak again. But her presence is clearly enough to attract the attention of others.
"Eh, you see, the new **** good middle school two, actually playing with a sword...... And it's also TMD's silver sword! ”
"It's obviously a goldfish guy who wants to deceive little Lori! Just now, he seemed to want to take advantage of the instructor...... It's so daring......"
"Hey, little girl, don't get too close to that kind of person, beware of infectious diseases!"
“…… Little sister come over here, or she will get pregnant? “
……
"Enough, if you choose it, stand up for the old lady!"
The whispering mixed into noise and laughter, which also successfully aroused the anger of the she-bear, so the weapon cabinet burst and dissipated like a blister, and in front of me, several guys who were waking and whistled were kicked down on the spot by a kick in the butt without exception: "Dung blocks, the first hint for you, there are two kinds of weapons, get them in the script or buy them in the space."
Glaring fiercely at the cowering and chaotic people, Miss Xiong raised her voice word by word: "Script, plot, sandbox or world." Whatever you want to call it, keep in mind that only weapons purchased with soul power can be brought back to the initial space and then substituted for the next scene. Guns are not valuable, what is valuable is the soul power that strengthens them specially. And the first time I bought it, I gave a preferential price, but unfortunately I guess none of you guys have the habit of buying good goods cheaply, right? Has anyone bought it? ”
"Sir! When you say landing space, is that the space we saw earlier? Is it understood that as long as you pay enough, you can bring the guns here back to that, that landing space? Sir? ”
Wang Julin said. He stood upright and raised his hand - exactly like a soldier in a movie.
And this apparently made the she-bear somewhat satisfied: "Not just guns, anything is fine, but only when you leave here, of course, you will soon know how 'good' it is." ”
"Sir, we can all understand what you are saying, is it also because of the payment of soul power? Sir? ”
"That's right."
"That ......"
"Enough, the old lady is not interested in playing quiz games! Everyone, line me up in three columns, two meters apart! You three eggs are the first, and you three shells are the second...... Woman in the back, hey, that virgin! Call you! The one with the silver sword! Are you responsible for breaking off and looking at the dot of our ass clearly? I said, "You squeak? Oh, I forgot that virgins aren't good at looking at women's asses? What a waste of a silver sword. ”
The laughter was loud again, and Wang Julin could only roll his eyes and follow the team with his sword.
The end of the column is not necessarily safer than the striker, of course, it is actually the same for these untrained guys, as for the opinions of others, Wang Julin is too lazy to care...... In addition to being curious about what he was going to encounter next, he was more concerned about the she-bear's translation system - what squeak, silver sword and other colloquialisms are definitely not found in Russian, and the other party's mouth shape does not match, but the pronunciation and meaning are as good as expected, and there is no hindrance at all.
This world is obviously not a dream, and it is more ...... than imagined Interesting?
The team geared up, and a door appeared out of thin air in the room, opening.
Outside the door was a short cement corridor, and the gray sunlight at the end of the passage was a little dazzling in the eyes accustomed to the dimness of the basement, Wang Julin squinted, and his gaze did not move forward like the others—on the surrounding walls, the cement seemed to be mottled and peeled off like erosion, and the dust accumulated in the corners, and the air that blew through the door sucked into his nose with a burnt and sticky, but heavy and oppressive smell.
Beyond the passage is a city.
Or rather, it used to be.
The buildings on both sides of the forest have become bare concrete supports, and the remaining windows are like rows of hideous mouths, roaring and roaring as hard as they can, but all that lingers in everyone's ears is the slight hiss of the wind passing through the gaps, making the silence even quieter, like death.
The tinkling sound rang in everyone's ears at this moment, startling them.
