Chapter 104: Flashstep
Coming out of the private training ground, Ji Xinghuo did not return to the hotel, but took the train back to Olympia and entered a high-end equipment store.
This shop only sells super equipment, so there are not many customers.
When Ji Xinghuo came in, a shopping guide observed his whole body equipment with vicious eyes, and he was wearing two rings on his left hand, all of which were super equipment, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Distinguished guest, what do you need?"
Ji Xinghuo got straight to the point, "Do you have any wrenches here?" โ
"Yes!" The smile on the shopping guide's face became more enthusiastic, and with his experience, he could naturally see that Ji Xinghuo was a ranger, "Does Mr. want a hidden arrow wrench?" We have exactly one in our shop, which is of medium quality and can store 12 arrows. โ
Ji Xinghuo was quite surprised.
The Hidden Arrow Wrench is one of the most wanted pieces of equipment for all archers, and it is also the most likely opportunity for most Inhumans to come into contact with space equipment.
As its name suggests, it can store arrows.
When fighting, pull the bowstring and activate the wrench, and the arrows stored in it will be taken out and placed on the bow, greatly increasing the frequency of shooting.
The principle is the same as your own dimensional stomach pouch.
The material used to make the wrench is very special, the capacity is very small, and it can only store arrows, and nothing else can be put into it.
According to the number of arrows stored, the quality of the wrench is divided.
However, even the most ordinary wrench, which can only store 5 arrows, is priced at more than 10 million Asian dollars.
Ji Xinghuo wanted to buy it before, but there were few goods on the market and he didn't encounter it.
Today's sudden return to Olympia is actually related to the Tibetan arrow wrench. If he wants to use the dimensional stomach pouch openly in the future, he needs a wrench as a camouflage to make others mistakenly think that it is a hidden arrow wrench, but in fact it can be other effects.
I couldn't buy it when I wanted it before, but now I don't want it, but it suddenly appeared.
Ji Xinghuo was helpless.
"Show it to me." He said, "In addition to the Tibetan arrow wrench, I am also interested in taking a few other types of wrenches." โ
"Sir, please come with me."
The shopping guide enthusiastically brought Ji Xinghuo into the VIP room.
Soon, he came back with a few exquisite boxes, and Ji Xinghuo noticed that two super strangers came outside the VIP room, obviously afraid that these expensive pieces of equipment would have an accident.
"Sir, please look."
The shopping guide opened the first box, took out a silver wrench, and introduced: "This Chinese Tibetan arrow wrench, can store 12 arrows, put and take quickly, the space is stable, and the texture is hard and not easy to damage, the appearance design is also very simple, even if there is no hidden arrow function, it is also of great help to archery." โ
Ji Xinghuo took it, and the design of this wrench was really careful.
It's not the standard cylinder wrench, it's oblique when viewed from the side, and strictly speaking, it's called "้" (shรจ), which has been around since the Shang Dynasty.
Putting on the wrench, his mind focused on it, and suddenly he realized that there were 12 arrows inside it, which were already full.
Ji Xinghuo's heart moved, and an arrow appeared in his hand.
He tried a few times, took out the arrow and hid it again, and the reaction was slower than the dimensional stomach pouch, and if it was faster, there would be an error.
Even so, a Tibetan arrow wrench improves the shooter very much.
"How much?" Ji Xinghuo asked.
The shopping guide immediately replied: "17 million Asian dollars, sir." โ
Ji Xinghuo nodded, didn't say whether to buy it or not, and didn't show the intention of bargaining, "I'll take a look at other wrenches." โ
"Okay." The shopping guide was very patient and opened the other boxes.
Ji Xinghuo looked at the past one by one, these are all super one-star equipment, with different shape designs, cylindrical, slope-shaped, and the materials are also metal, jade, etc., some have string grooves, some do not, and the functions are not the same.
The most common is a precision wrench with the "precision" ability.
This is designed for non-ranger Inhumans, which can increase the shooting accuracy and is very popular, but it is difficult to buy ordinary Inhumans, and the starting price is more than six million.
Of course, Ji Xinghuo can't use it.
However, he is considering whether to buy a precision wrench to pretend to be a hidden arrow wrench, or to buy a real one directly for 17 million.
Before he could make a decision, a trigger suddenly caught Ji Xinghuo's attention.
This wrench is also the shape of the chise, the overall blue is like a bronze material, inlaid with a light gold animal face pattern, as if unearthed simple cultural relics.
He picked it up and felt it, and said in surprise: "It's a flash step." โ
"Yes, sir!" The shopper introduced: "This flash wrench is also designed for shooters, when the shooter is close to the enemy, when it is critical, it can avoid deadly attacks. If you are a ranger, the flash step with balance can improve your body skills, which is very practical. โ
Ji Xinghuo nodded, and his heart was already alive.
He has been exposed to the "Flashstep" xenomorph many times, and the fusion success rate given by the Vientiane Star Pupil is very high, which means that the fit is extremely high.
However, Shinkstep is only a base ability, and it's not worth wasting a precious fusion opportunity.
Now this flashstep wrench is just the right time to give yourself a taste of the effect.
"I'll try."
Ji Xinghuo put on the flashstep wrench, stood up, his mind fell on the thumb of his right hand, injected star power to inspire and took a step forward.
In an instant, his eyes flashed.
The whole person seemed to teleport and changed positions, Ji Xinghuo was surprised in his heart, and with his reaction, he could only barely detect the movement process.
The distance that flashed out of this step was very short, less than two meters.
The star power consumed is not much, only 3 points, but the burden on the body is not small, the body seems to be pushed hard, the musculoskeletal feeling is nothing, but the internal organs and brain are a little uncomfortable.
"The acceleration is too much."
Ji Xinghuo immediately understood what was going on.
The moment of flash step excitation, from near stationary to high-speed movement, and then immediately stopped, the whole process first accelerates and then decelerates, the force generated by inertia causes a load on the body, if it is an ordinary person, this flash step may be seriously injured or even killed on the spot.
Although Inhuman's physical fitness is strong, it is also difficult to continuously flash and endure.
Flash steps also consume physical strength, every flash step is an extreme anaerobic burst, a few more flashes, the body is like being hollowed out.
However, Ji Xinghuo didn't feel much.
He flashed in the room several times in a row, and quickly adapted to this rapid movement, and the strong physical fitness brought by the three-level rotating magnetic field made it easy for him to withstand the acceleration.
It took five flashes in a row before he needed to stop and catch his breath and regain his strength.
"Flashstep is really fast!"
Ji Xinghuo exclaimed in his heart, unless he predicted the landing point in advance, it was almost impossible to be attacked during the flash step, as if he was invincible.
"It's just a little shorter, less than two meters."
"If you fuse the flash step and upgrade it, you should be able to increase the movement distance and speed faster."
Ji Xinghuo remembered that he had killed the big gon flying step, and the other party's flash step distance was more than four meters, obviously after a long period of training, the level was not low.
He eased up his physical strength, tried a few more times, and found that the flash step is not the same every time, and he can control the shortening of the distance by himself to save star power and physical strength, but the requirements for nerve response are very high, and he needs to stop the flash step in a very short moment.
Thinking of this, Ji Xinghuo started high-frequency thinking.
He flashed again, and his figure teleported, and this time the flash only moved less than half a meter!
"Sure enough."
"Flashsteps and high-frequency thinking are a perfect match!"
Ji Xinghuo has roughly mastered the trick, but he still needs some practice. He didn't hesitate any longer, looked at the guide and asked, "What is the price of this flashstep wrench?" โ
A few minutes later, the shopping guide sent Ji Xinghuo to the door with a smile on his face.
Ji Xinghuo's right thumb has already worn a flashstep ring, for which he paid 7 million Asian yuan, but it feels like it's worth it, and this equipment is very suitable for him.
Before the starry night, Ji Xinghuo returned to the Midpoint Fortress.
Gathering with Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen at the bar, Jing Ji noticed the wrench on Ji Xinghuo's hand at a glance and asked, "Newly bought equipment?" โ
Ji Xinghuo nodded.
Yuan Chongzhen glanced twice, "It can't be a hidden arrow wrench, right?" โ
Without waiting for Ji Xinghuo to answer, Jing Ji smiled and said, "With Xinghuo's strength, what else can it be besides hiding the arrow wrench?" โ
Ji Xinghuo smiled but said nothing.
The three of them have all received a large number of bounties, are not short of money, and often purchase super equipment, so this is just a small episode, Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen said a few words casually, and they didn't pay too much attention to it.
After dinner, the team immediately set off.
"Let's go, it's time for us to hurry."
The points were overtaken, which gave Jing Ji a sense of urgency, but he didn't lose his sense of proportion because of this, and still hunted the enemy as usual.
When they came back at noon the next day, the three of them had received more than 10 million bounties, and each person's points had increased by more than 120 points.
Two days later, the trio regained Alex's team in points and regained the top three.
Then it gradually pulled away.
However, it didn't take long for Alex's points to suddenly skyrocket again, overtaking Jing Ji.
This time, Alex and the three of them eliminated a gathering point of the Beiluo Division, there were more than six hundred people, and many of them were third-order, and they got a total of more than a thousand points, even if the three of them were average, Alex's points were also thrown off the thorn halberd.
The thorn halberd could only increase the hunting time and expand the range, and it took a few days to catch up again.
In the second half of the month.
The two teams alternate points leads, you chase me, but no one can completely get rid of them. Seeing the last three days, Alex's points suddenly did not move.
Jing Ji was a few tens ahead, but there was no joy.
He had learned that Alex hadn't been back to Midpoint Fortress for two days, and it was clear that they were planning a large-scale hunt, and the next time they returned, they would most likely hand over a large amount of loot to end the gamble.
A lot of people in the Midpoint Fortress are watching, and they can listen and talk about it wherever they go.
The penultimate day.
When Ji Xinghuo and the three of them were eating, there were frequent people around them. On the way out of the city gates, many people stopped to turn around, making them the center of attention.
After leaving the fortress, Jing Ji took a deep breath and said to his two teammates: "For the last 100 hours, we will not rest, and we will continue to hunt until the end. As for whether you can win or not, it depends on luck. โ
