Chapter 762: Chapter 722: The Correct Usage of Weapon Storage Box
Of course, this is not to say that hot weapons have become extinct on the battlefield.
Many people still use them.
However, all these users are players who ride motorcycles, struggling to chase giant dragons on shattered roads amidst towering trees.
Those who use grappling hooks to leap through the sky between towering trees and layers of branches all use cold weapons!
From time to time, you can see a few sharp sword lights shining on the back of the dragon, then a large amount of dragon blood splashes out in the air.
This scene can easily give people the impression: hot weapons are already outdated weapons.
Really fashionable people use the “advanced” cold weapons.
– Advanced cold weapons forged by hunters from Dinosaur Island.
Yelang doesn’t believe that hot weapons are so down, he insists on trying and forcefully throws the hook claw upwards.
The hook claw grips tightly onto a tree branch. Yelang gives a strong pull and an inexplicable force pulls him up, shooting him up a great distance.
When he wants to retract the hook claw, it automatically flies back into his hand, and then he throws it up again.
But when he retracts the hook claw and he’s still falling, causing the distance to be miscalculated, the hook claw is still more than a metre away from the target branch, and the rope has already been stretched to its limit.
The hook claw that hadn’t gripped onto anything inevitably falls under the force of gravity and Yelang also exclaims and falls heavily back onto the ground.
Only then did he realize: this hook claw requires practice!
If you use it in battle without sufficient proficiency, you may end up in big trouble if it “unhooks”.
He subconsciously rubbed his butt, gathered himself and threw out the hook claw again.
…
After a lot of effort, Yelang finally caught up with the Plant Dragon.
– Mainly because the Plant Dragon was being encircled and intercepted by players, often flying around in the city… no, in the forest, thereby giving Yelang the chance.
He still has a lot to learn about the proficiency of the hook claw.
How far the hook claw can fly is not a fixed numerical value, and how big an angle of protrusion it can grip, and how thick of a cylindrical object it can wind around, also require the accumulation of experience.
Knowing this is not enough, these “experiences” must be turned into “instinct”.
Becuase in actual combat you often need to make judgments on the spot, you have to keep flying in the air while looking for the next grip point.
Clearly, this is not a simple thing.
Now they’ve only been able to easily fly around in the air due to the Plant Dragon’s magic that transformed the battlefield into a jungle environment. Everywhere you can see tree branches that can be used as gripping points, which allows players who’ve just recently acquired the hook claw to fly around with ease.
Change the environment, and things won’t be so simple.
– Unless Yunmeng will offer even better hook claws.
In the air, Yelang pulls out his heavy machine gun and shoots wildly at the close-by Plant Dragon.
Their distance was so close that the dragon blood splattered on his face.
To his surprise, unlike the Fire Dragon’s hot and bright dragon blood, the Plant Dragon’s blood was somewhat cool, and there was a mint-like freshness that made him feel refreshed and awakened.
Of course, all the bullets hit their mark without a single miss.
But it’s hard to say how much damage was done.
The bullets from the heavy machine gun could make holes in the cement ground, but when they hit the giant dragon, they only caused some small and large bullet holes, exhibiting astonishing defence power.
Moreover, as soon as Yelang stops firing, he hastily throws out his hook claw, and the bullet holes that were previously made have already closed.
It is clear that these minor wounds can be completely ignored by the Plant Dragon’s extraordinary recovery ability.
However, the large wounds caused by players with big swords, katanas, and giant axes, especially those special slashes that require posture and preparation, are much more difficult to heal.
Heavy machine guns are just like this, not to mention ordinary rifles and small handguns, they’re probably much like mosquito bites.
Yelang wants to directly go to Dinosaur Island to catch up to the progress and make weapons.
But he already arrived, not finishing off the Plant Dragon and getting the second Dragon Pearl, would make him uncomfortable.
In the end, he used the ever-so-reliable reason “There is plenty of time in the future”, to convince himself to stay.
…
After a long and drawn-out battle, Yelang even began to feel that the hook claw was completely at his fingertips. Finally, the Plant Dragon let out a mournful cry, flew straight into the sky, uttering its last declaration —
“Your plot will not succeed.”
“As long as the Dragon Maiden is not returned, this war will not stop for a day!”
“We will never give up on Dragon Maiden, even at the cost of life!”
After finishing this determined declaration, the Plant Dragon quickly burrowd into the clouds and disappeared.
The Dragon Pearls turned into lights and fell into the hands of each player.
Yelang held up his newly acquired amber pearl, looked at the two pentagrams in the amber, and couldn’t help but wonder:
What kind of reward will the [Giant Dragon Invasion] event give?
Battlefield gave the Weapon Storage Box, Dinosaur Island gave the hook claw and cold weapons, “Hunter” gave the shoulder cannon, mask and hunting hound, so what will the metropolis side give?
A Dragon Sister for everyone?
Ride a dragon during the day and ride a big sister at night?
This is a good dream.
But it’s not very likely.
Considering the stinginess of Yunmeng in the virtual world…
Yelang sighed directly.
Should he gather his spirits and go make cold weapons?
Yelang thought for a while and changed his mind again — since he got the Weapon Storage Box, he might as well go and kill Iron-Blooded Warrior first.
It’s all over the internet saying that the Weapon Storage Box is the nemesis of Iron-Blooded Warrior, in that case he might as well deal with this simplest task first.
Yelang retreated back to his virtual house and logged in to the “Hunter” world again.
He started the challenge to fight the invisible opponent.
*
Ivan, who is also in the “Hunter” world, is at this moment lying in the game cabin of the spaceship, once again starting to look for a match.
He had been preoccupied with playing Extrordinary Battlefield, hoping to get an Armament Box, and didn’t have the time to check back.
His desire for the Armament Box was not out of mere convenience, but more because he was inspired by other players and wanted to carry out a test—
If the appearance-changing function of the Armament Box was used to turn the Armament Box into a collar for a hunting dog.
—Speaking of this, Ivan couldn’t quite understand: Isn’t a collar meant for dogs?
Why did many people think that the collar was meant for humans as soon as they saw it?
In any case, his idea was to turn the Armament Box into a ‘collar’, put it on the hunting dog, and then fill it with bombs.
When the hunting dog quickly rushes to its prey or opponent, he would remotely operate and pull out the bomb.
In this way, he might be able to hurl the prey directly up into the sky?
As for the hunting dog?
This is a virtual world, the pets of players shouldn’t die, right?
Even if they died, they should be able to revive, it’s a minor matter.
This method seems a bit sadistic, Ivan knew that in Europe’s current public opinion environment, if he dared to live broadcast this, the next second he could consider immigrating to Daxia.
The ‘mothers’ of Western Europe could form a team, travelling thousands of miles to tear him apart.
So he just intended to try it in the real world to satisfy his curiosity.
This curiosity is purely stimulated by all sorts of muck-up anchors.
As more and more people got the ‘Armament Box’, a large number of activities revolved around it.
Yi once asked his fans during a live stream, “Do you want to see the big gun under my crotch?”
Then in the midst of a screen full of ‘???’ comments, he tucked his hand into his belt and pulled out a large shotgun!
He brazenly asked, “How about it? Isn’t it big?”
—He used the ‘Customise’ appearance function to turn the Armament Box into a pair of underpants.
The viewers watched with their eyes burning.
There’s also a tough female anchor named Autumn Wind, who performed a spectacular chest-pulling!
This female anchor was actually a model, she was successfully voted as the promotional model for ‘Prosthetic Journey’, and filmed promotional videos for the ‘Journey’ series of brain-controlled lower limb auxiliary devices.
Afterwards, she not only received a perfectly simulated lower limb specially made for her by ‘Prosthetic Journey Company’, but also won a lifetime free maintenance and aftercare service.
After she got a completely lifelike right leg, she not only made up for her shortcomings, but also rode the wave of Yunmeng, finally achieving stunning success, quickly sprinting towards being a true ‘Top Model’.
She was always grateful for the opportunity given by Yunmeng and Prosthetic Journey, and wherever possible she would help to advertise for free, more conscientious than Lincoln.
Becoming an anchor was also to help advertise.
However, they did not expect that the income brought by the anchor in such a short time was no less than the model…
It’s person’s fate.
Now that Yunmeng is holding a New Year’s Eve event, she certainly won’t miss it, and came to do a high-intensity live broadcast as soon as possible.
Once she got the Armament Box, she instantly pulled a big gimmick.
— Shut off the live broadcast, ran into the cloakroom to change her outfit, and then turned it on again.
When she showed up to everyone again, she was nolonger in her regular clothes but had changed into a “blockbuster” style outfit—
The lower part was a pure black wide-legged pants, her long legs were tightly wrapped, but the upper part was just a black, strapless top with lace edges, under the perfect body proportions, it was a perfect combination of hot and sexy and brave.
The live broadcast room was immediately filled with ghostly cries and howls.
But Howards’s performance was just about to start.
She carefully adjusted the lights in the room, and pulled the camera back a bit, and then made a virtual hold with her right hand on her chest.
The audience first thought she was posing, but the next moment, they saw that a hilt of a sword suddenly appeared in Howard’s previously empty right hand!
Then, Howard; bit by bit, pulled a katana from her chest!
Under the lights she carefully adjusted, the blade reflecting the cold light, the half-covered exquisite face, and the coldness in her eyes and expressions, any screenshot, is a ready-made ‘blockbuster’!
The entire live broadcast room was shocked by this scene, and it took them a long time for them to react—
Howard turned the Armament Box into a strapless top!
This video, which lasted less than 10 seconds, quickly spread across the entire player circle, even across social networks.
Immediately, a large number of imitation and secondary creation videos emerged, greatly arousing the players’ desire for fun.
Ivan was no exception.
It was just that his journey on the Extraordinary Battlefield was not going well…
To put it bluntly, he was beat up quite a bit by various immortals.
Especially by a Daxia player who was physically less imposing than him, he was hit like a ball and was thrown around with shoulder flips, knee hits, eye pokes, egg explosions and even throws…
He forgot completely about his previous desire to seek out a Kung Fu master and become an apprentice, while cursing non-stop, he quit the game.
He returned to his comfort zone— the world of ‘Hunter’, to seek comfort.
And there was indeed good news waiting for him in the ‘Hunter’ world: the previous audience’s guess was correct.
After enough players defeated the Iron-Blooded Warrior, the game cabin could finally be used!
