Chapter 205: Gene Lock
Zero put away the special sensor pistol that simulated the confrontation, and in his eyes, the battlefield was gradually fading, which was the reason why the background wall was closing.
When it was pitch black around his body, another spotlight came on overhead, and a field about the size of a football field, with metal plates embedded in the ground and walls, appeared in Zero's eyes. This is a real-world simulation site that creates a virtual battlefield for all known environments through holographic projection of a background wall that fills the entire ground.
Whether it is the pistol used by Zero or the weapon used by Su and Kaede, they are all special sensors for simulated confrontation. However, in the holographic projection, these sensors will simulate a person's special weapon to achieve the purpose of performing at the best level.
Because of this, in addition to the actual combat simulation, there is no need to kill the opponent in real time, but the jishu and strategies used on the battlefield are no different from reality. Only an organization like Valhalla can afford to use such a holographic projection venue to hone the combat skills of its soldiers, as well as the cooperation of the team.
Two days ago, Valkyrie offered Zero two packages. The first is to combine the mastery of firearms and agility enhancement and advance to the popular marksman, and the second is to invest in the evolution points of Liliang enhancement to combine the gun master.
Both professions have their own characteristics.
With a focus on agility and accuracy, the Boom Shooter has developed the ability to shoot accurately while moving quickly. Its most iconic ability is the "Wind Burst", which allows Zero to make dazzling shooting moves while moving. In addition to this, Zero also generates the abilities of "Multiple Shots", "Ping Pong Pong", and "Spirit Markers".
Among them, the multi-shot allows Zero to instantly attack the target with a sniper rifle, which is an upgraded version of the two-bullet and one-point technique that Zero shot at the same point. It can be said that with zero after multiple shots, energy defenses similar to elemental force fields are no longer so impregnable.
As for the spirit marker, it is an auxiliary ability, which will generate an energy imprint on the target at the spiritual level. The energy imprint can only be perceived by zero, but the range of this ability is only three hundred meters, and it can be covered by certain abilities and special equipment in the perception domain, so the effect is not very large. However, as the ability improves, when this ability is upgraded to "Soul Imprint", it will become one of the most powerful tracking skills.
Zuihou is table tennis, and table tennis is more of a shooting skill than an ability. It is a kind of shooting technique in which the shooter accurately calculates the angle of the gun and the environment in which the gun is shot. It is capable of disrupting the opponent's judgment with a strange shooting trajectory in a specific environment, so as to hit the target at an incredible angle.
The jishu used by Zero to "shoot" Rankine is a ping-pong ball, and if you use conventional techniques, Rankine, who is lying under the window of the fortification, will not be able to shoot at all. But through the skill of table tennis, Zero finished him with one shot.
And all of the above is the characteristic of the popular shooter. Compared to the agile Boomer, the Gun Master focuses more on positional destruction, and through the combination of a more advanced liliang and accurate hit rate, he can independently operate heavy weapons that are usually only carried on chariots to blast the enemy's position. It can be said that the role of gun masters is more reflected in large-scale wars.
Zero eventually chose the Windswept Archer as a promoted class, which stemmed from his usual fighting style. And with the help of "Rampage" and the Golden Right Eye, Zero can increase the combat power of the Windswept Archer by about two or three percent on the standard value.
To this end, he invested 35 evolution points, including 15 evolution points required for the mastery of fourth-order firearms. The four abilities of Xincheng are all in the first-order stage, and just to upgrade to the second-order, each ability requires as many as 4 evolution points, but it is not as cheap as improving the basic ability.
If Zero wants to move to a higher level of career, he needs to move the Popularity Archer class up four levels. As Valkyrie said, every four stages are a node in evolution. It's just that the promotion of the profession is not so simple, it needs to be extended by the profession to improve at the same time. In other words, only if the four advancement abilities are increased at the same time, the zero class can be promoted.
After removing the evolution points required to evolve the Windrun Shooter, Zero only has 7 evolution points left. To this end, after he upgraded the most widely suitable Wind Shot to the second tier, there were no more evolution points at his disposal.
But with today's barrage of simulated confrontations, Zero doesn't regret investing in evolution points in this class. The Windswept Marksman continues his usual fighting style and greatly increases his overall combat power. Therefore, it also earned him an irreplaceable position in the team.
At this time, the door of the actual combat simulation field opened. Cario and a group of instructors rushed in from outside the door, and after one of the instructors shouted "assemble", nearly a hundred recruits immediately gathered into a phalanx.
Holding a tablet in his hand, Cario looked at the screen and said, "Today's assessment results have come out, and I am surprised that the Pioneer Team has fallen to third place this time." The second place is Rankine's Demoman, and as for the first place, I have to say, you Windrangers are really shit lucky!"
Windranger is the name of the Su team, but now that there is Zero as the Windswept Shooter, the name is even more deserved.
"It's not luck, it's strength, sir!" Su said loudly, glancing at Zero.
Zero smiled, noncommittal. But he knew in his heart that the Vanguard squad, which had always had excellent results, was not a team that relied on numbers like Rankine. In fact, the members of the Vanguard Squad are no worse than the Windrangers. Today's defeat is mainly due to the extra zero in Windranger. Zero was participating in this kind of real combat confrontation for the first time, so the Pioneer did not know much about him.
And the profession of zero promotion is known for its flexibility, so it will disrupt the formation of zero, so that Zuihou fails. But the next time I meet it, Zero believes it won't be as easy as this time.
Of course, on the real battlefield, there is never a next time.
After recording the results of the assessment, Cario announced his disbandment, which meant that the soldiers were free to spend the rest of their time. The first team champion was so excited that Kaede suggested going to the tavern to celebrate. But Callio called Zero over, and the instructor took out a communicator, pressed a button, and threw it to Zero.
"Answer it, Valkyrie seems to have something to do with you. Pointing to the communicator, Cario said.
Zero picked up the communicator, and Valkyrie's voice immediately came from inside: "After the assessment, leave the barracks immediately." I've already asked someone to prepare a car for you outside the barracks, and you can come to the Twelve Main Shrines right away. The body test report that I gave you in the last evolution debugging has come out, and we found an object with a seventh-level genetic lock on your body. Let's talk about the details in the main shrine, and my father wants to talk to you in person. ”
Zero was stunned, he didn't know what level 7 gene lock was. But he could hear Valkyrie's voice tinged with excitement. Until then, he had always lumped Valkyrie into the same category as emotionless machines.
