Chapter 15: Armor-piercing metal worth 11
This huge equipment street, which was nothing more than the main road of the old city, has been transformed into a place for the sale of equipment.
On both sides of Equipment Street, there are large and small equipment stores.
Countless signboards, weaving crowds, the "buzz" of talking to each other, and the sound of bargaining and arguing. It is no less than the bustling commercial street of the former international metropolis, and it is even more noisy than it.
Vehicles are not allowed to enter the equipment street, and the huge parking plaza has long been crowded with all kinds of vehicles.
Electric cars, cars, animal trainers and much more.
The equipment streets of Titan City are not at all a level compared to here.
……
In the Rainbow Gear Shop.
Zhou Zheng pointed to a dagger on the counter and asked, "Miss, what is the price of this weapon, is it the real price?" ”
The shopping guide lady with a sweet smile on her face walked over, she glanced at the dagger that Zhou Zheng was pointing to, and said, "The price has been marked, and all the equipment in our store is clearly marked." Need to show it to you? ”
Zhou Zheng nodded.
The shopping guide opened the lock on the counter and took out the delicate dagger.
Zhou Zheng took it, held it in his hand and tried it, it was very smooth.
"How do you know this armor-piercing value?" The dagger is marked with an armor-piercing value of 5 and a conductivity of 27%. Like conductivity, many times it is also based on experience to guess an approximation, like this armor-piercing value, but Zhou Zheng has no way to determine.
The shopping guide's su zhì. Absolutely top-notch.
She smiled lightly, took out a small tester from under the counter, and then after powering on, she asked for the dagger in Zhou Zheng's hand.
Place the dagger into one of the test holes of the tester, and when the button is pressed, the test holes flash.
Soon, on the display, a line of information was displayed: armor-piercing value 5, conductivity 27%.
The shopping guide said, "Sir." Each weapon is on the shelf. All of them need to be verified by the three departments, and the results are consistent before they are allowed to be put on the shelves for sale. Of these three departments, the first is the inspection department of the manufacturing company. The second is the Department of Equipment Management, the official agency of the Buried Bones. The third is our company's acceptance department. ”
from below. There is a certificate, and the shopping guide takes it out, and it really has the stamps of three departments.
And so it goes. There is no need to worry about the stats of each weapon being miscertain.
This kind of rules and regulations are somewhat complicated, but they ensure the interests of the warriors.
Armor-piercing weapons are very expensive, like this dagger with an armor-piercing value of 5, the price has reached the price of 1.5 high-grade amethyst, which is only slightly lower than the dagger with 35% conductivity of Zhou Zheng's peerless blade.
It is conceivable how expensive a weapon with armor piercing reaches 10?
In another sense, composite metals can be used as a substitute for circulating currency. In many places, it is even possible to exchange compound metals for huàn commodities and use them as currency.
But clad metals are not so easy to synthesize.
In fact, the most important material of composite metal is the material of the mutant beast, and the teeth of the stronger mutant beast are one of the materials of the composite metal. The higher the order of the tooth, the higher the armor penetration value is likely to occur when the metal is processed and composite.
However, the success rate of clad metals is very low, which is also the reason why the price of clad metals only rises and does not fall.
In addition, the official procurement of the burial ground is also one of the reasons why the composite metal has less to flow to the peripheral market.
Zhou Zheng put the dagger back and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”
The shopping guide took it with a smile, put it back on the counter, and said lightly: "Welcome to visit our equipment store next time." ”
Out of this equipment store, Zhou Zheng turned a few more, basically, there are not as many armor-piercing weapons as imagined, and some equipment stores only have more than a dozen pieces, and more are just conduction weapons. The current armor-piercing weapons are still beyond the reach of many warriors.
Think about it, at the beginning, the high-rate weapon movement was low purple, but now the armor-piercing weapon is moving with high purple.
In a large equipment store, Zhou Zheng even saw a war knife of the treasure of the town store, the price of orange crystal is destined to become the treasure of the town store, and the people who can take it down, looking at the place where the bones are buried, I am afraid there will not be too many.
"In Titan City, I was still a high-class class, but when I got to the place where I was buried, I became a middle-class ......"
Zhou Zheng smiled bitterly.
……
In the equipment street, there are several large auction houses.
At this scale, the auction house is held every day, and as long as there is a certain value, whether it is weapons, armor, materials, or even mutated plants, you can apply to the auction house for auction.
Unlike Chang Zhan's auction houses, the initial fee here is one white crystal.
Only if the auction is successful, the auction house will take a 5% handling fee.
Once the auction fails, the submitter loses only an insignificant white crystal.
It is this kind of low threshold that makes the auction house's business extremely hot, and a large number of martial artists choose to sell their unneeded equipment or harvested mutant beast materials here. Similarly, it is precisely because there are many things that it attracts some warriors to pay attention to this place and choose what they need in the auction house.
In many cases, it is also about luck.
Sometimes you can buy something that is more expensive than outside, but it is possible that you can buy something that is much lower than what you can buy in an outfit store.
"Friends, it's a pleasure to be there today, the finale of our first show is a huge surprise."
In an auction house where Zhou Zheng squeezed in, the auctioneer's voice was indescribably excited and excited: "Just now, a mysterious seller submitted a piece of composite metal to our auction house. ”
As soon as they heard that it was a composite metal, the warriors present were in an uproar.
The armor-piercing value of the composite metal that can be listed on the auction house will definitely not be lower than 5, which is already a consensus among auction houses.
A clad metal of no less than 5, as long as it does not break through 8, is generally a medium clad metal and will not cause too much sensation. But looking at the auctioneer's expression, Zhou Zheng knew that the armor-breaking value of this piece of composite metal was probably above 8.
The auctioneer smiled: "Now, please." ”
A young lady in a bikini brought a tray to the auction table, then put it down, made a kissing motion, and twisted her ass to leave the auction table amid the screams of the warriors.
"Okay, friends, after our appraiser's identification, this is a piece of composite metal with a diameter of 10 centimeters and a thickness of 2 centimeters."
Such an introduction suddenly made many warriors lose interest, what can a composite metal with a diameter of 10 cm do? You must know that the weapons of the warriors are almost all weapons such as war knives, and they need a lot of composite metal, and this 10 cm composite metal has little effect on many warriors.
But it doesn't mean all, and some warriors still show an interested look.
"Now announce the armor piercing value, friends, be surprised, this is a top-grade composite metal with an armor piercing value of 11." The auctioneer screamed, causing the entire auction house to scream, the armor piercing value is 11, which is really too surprising.
Of the known armor piercing values, the highest is not 13.
"Friends, start shooting now, the reserve price is a high-grade amethyst." The expressions of the warriors let the auctioneer know that in this frenzy, a better price can be fetched.
In fact, after the composite metal is purchased, it still needs to be made into the required weapon, and then another factor involved in this appears, which is conductivity. A weapon made of top-quality composite metal, if the conductivity does not exceed 30%, can basically be said to be wasted.
In other words, there is a huge risk associated with buying clad metal, and it is far less advantageous than buying a formed armor-piercing weapon outright.
But the greater the risk, the greater the gain, and what if there is an ultra-high conductivity?
Therefore, the warriors present have long been crazy, and they don't care about this risk at all, and they don't care if he can use such a small piece of composite metal, it's a big deal to buy it first, and when he has money, he will look for more composite metals with the same armor-piercing value, and make up enough metal for a weapon.
Under this frenzy, this piece of composite metal with an armor-piercing value of 11 has reached the price of five high-grade amethysts in a moment.
"Damn!"
Zhou Zheng was completely stunned, the madness brought by this composite metal was the first time he had seen it.
However, composite metals with an armor-piercing value of 11 are indeed rare.
As long as the fabricators really process this kind of armor-piercing composite metal, they will definitely find some big teams and trends, and they will be very happy to eat it at a high price. Although this piece is small, it is extremely difficult to see it when it is outward.
"Six high-grade amethysts."
"Okay, it's already six, do you have any higher friends?"
In Zhou Zheng's secret stunned, this composite metal with an armor-piercing value of 11 was upgraded by a high-grade amethyst, and this kind of price increase was indeed very cruel. You must know that a high-grade amethyst, its role is so great that it is enough for ordinary people to use for a lifetime.
At this point, the range of price increase is slowly smaller, but there are still many warriors who bid.
Zhou Zheng was dumbfounded: "It's a day, the warriors in this place of bones are too rich, this kind of auction is held every day, the warriors gathered here are still so rich, but what kind of large-scale auction will it be like in the whole city?" ”
"Okay, 6.5 high-grade amethyst, do you still have friends? Anything else? Again, are there any friends who bid higher? OK, now start counting down, 10, 9, 8 ......"
The auctioneer counts down, and once no one bids again within 10 seconds, the clad metal falls into the hands of the last bidder.
The warriors below, at this point, have stopped bidding, because this price is too high. You must know that the armor-piercing value of this piece of composite metal is high, but it is still too small, who knows when it will be enough to make up the amount of equipment after buying it?
