Chapter 28: Level 2 Alloy Thorns, Transforming Bullets
Take the rotting wolf that Zhang Ran encountered on the way back to the base, if Zhang Ran's hand was not a Silver Eagle pistol at that time, but an AM41 automatic rifle, it would be almost impossible for the rotten wolf's reaction speed to avoid the first bullet of the AM41 automatic rifle, and Zhang Ran could easily take it down.
After having the AM41 automatic rifle, even if he encounters a mutant creature with a hunting level of 1, Zhang Ran now has a certain means of resistance, especially those mutant creatures with low agility, and they are even more restrained by fire weapons.
Of course, Zhang Ran also understands that firepower weapons are just things outside the body, against some mutated creatures with slower action speed, firearm weapons do have miraculous effects, but if it is some specialized and agile mutant creatures, such as stinging snakes, shadow wolves, rigid feather vultures, etc., their speed makes it difficult for bullets to lock, and even have the ability to kill Zhang Ran in seconds before Zhang Ran shoots, if you want to really and be able to fight against level 1 mutant creatures, you also need Zhang Ran to obtain evolution points and advance evolutionaries.
Although the firearms have certain defects, but he was able to find the precious metal gold on the first trip, and bought a sharp weapon such as an automatic rifle, Zhang Ran's heart was still very satisfied, put away the AM41 automatic rifle, and he came to the cold weapon sales area on the side.
"How much does that hanging thorn cost?"
Pointing to a military spur on the wall that was black in appearance, forty centimeters long, with sharp spikes at the blade and bloodletting grooves on the blade, Zhang Ran asked lightly.
"Sir, this spur is made of grade 2 alloy and sells for 1,870 Black Hawk Coins. ”
Hearing Zhang Ran's words, the salesman also hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Okay, this dagger is good, I want it, give it. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Ran took out two purple gold black eagle coins with a face value of 1,000 from his money bag and put them on the counter in front of the salesman.
"Sir, this dagger is of great mass, so please take it yourself. ”
handed the change to Zhang Ran, and the salesman also showed a shallow smile, and then led Zhang Ran to the military thorn.
"Good, this weapon is very good!"
Picking up the military thorn and weighing it, Zhang Ran's eyes flashed a look of satisfaction, compared to the military thorn he used before, this military thorn is made of grade 2 alloy, both the weight and the sharpness are a lot higher, and the mass is also 20 kilograms, if you want, you can also use it as a machete.
Zhang Ran's previous military spurs were made of ordinary alloy steel, ordinary alloy steel belongs to level 1 alloy, although it is still very sharp, it can be said to be a sharp weapon in the face of level 0 mutant creatures such as rotten wolves and elite raging gophers, but once it encounters those level 1 and above mutant creatures, it will be difficult to break the defense, and it is very likely to be damaged in battle.
And now, the new army thorn that Zhang Ran bought is made of grade 2 alloy, and all attributes have been fully improved compared to level 1 alloy steel, and it has the ability to fight against mutant creatures below level 3, which is enough to meet Zhang Ran's current situation, and can give Zhang Ran a greater advantage in the face of ordinary mutant beasts.
After doing this, Zhang Ran replenished a certain share of supplies, and finally came to the living area of the forward base.
In addition to buying weapons and supplies, Zhang Ran only had about 500 Black Eagle Coins left, and he ordered a set meal worth 50 Black Eagle Coins in the restaurant in the living area and sat down to eat.
In the wilderness, ordinary people eat two black eagle coins of black bread, fifty black eagle coins of food is already a good meal, in addition to a large bowl of wheat and rice, there are plenty of meat and vegetables, compared to the food in the training camp although monotonous, the amount is not bad at all, compared to high-energy food is more delicious.
After eating dinner and filling his stomach, Zhang Ran spent another fifty Black Eagle Coins to obtain accommodation in the forward base, and came to a separate small room with the number plate.
Locked the door, and carefully arranged a small mechanism that could make a sound when the door was opened, Zhang Ran also took out the bullet he had just purchased and the level 2 alloy military thorn, and used the alloy military thorn to carve a special pattern on the bullet.
After the bullet is processed in this way, the warhead will explode shortly after firing or when it is fired into the target's body, which greatly increases its power. On Earth, such bullets are also known as "dum bullets", which are banned by multinational cooperation because they are not humane enough, but in the wasteland world, there is naturally no such limitation.
Of course, while the power is increased, the accuracy of the bullets processed in this way will also be damaged, so Zhang Ran did not modify all the bullets, only modified ten rifle bullets and ten pistol bullets, and stopped.
After completing the transformation of the bullet, Zhang Ran went to the bathroom again and took a simple shower to wash away the mud, sweat stains and blood on his body.
This time, it only took three minutes of showering, and it cost Zhang Ran a full thirty Black Eagle Coins - all the water used in the shower must be treated to reduce the harmful substances and radiation in it, although this bath water will not be reduced to the standard of potable water, but considering its quantity, it is still a lot of consumption.
After bathing, Zhang Ran also felt refreshed, although he could also endure the state of stains, blood and sweat, but being able to sleep refreshingly and refreshingly was naturally refreshing, and paying the price of thirty Black Eagle Coins, Zhang Ran felt that it was a very worthwhile thing.
After doing all this, Zhang Ran lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep with the help of the chip - of course, while he was asleep, the chip in his brain was still observing the surrounding environment, once the mechanism at the door was triggered, or other clues appeared, the chip would immediately send a signal to wake Zhang Ran up, so Zhang Ran could also sleep boldly and with confidence.
Seven hours later.
At half past five in the morning, the chip sent a special signal on time to wake Zhang Ran from sleep, and after seven hours of deep sleep, Zhang Ran's physical strength and energy were fully recovered, and he carried his equipment and left the room in good spirits.
Coming to the living area, Zhang Ran ordered a breakfast again, thirty Black Eagle coins were enough to bring a sufficient amount of food, although it could not be compared with the Earth Star, but it was also a benefit that many ordinary people in the wilderness could not enjoy in a lifetime.
After breakfast, it was already six o'clock in the morning, and the door to the forward base was opened again.
With the unique noise of the hydraulic machinery and the "creaking" sound of the gears rubbing against each other, a large cloud of scorching steam poured out of the exhaust tunnel outside the gate of the forward base, and then the silver alloy gate of the forward base, which was five meters in diameter and thirty miles thick, slowly retracted inward, and then rolled sideways, revealing the external passage to the wilderness.
