Chapter 8: Type III Power Core

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Zheng picked his ears in confusion and took three minutes to recover his hearing.

“Damn, that scared me. I thought I was deaf…”

Looking at the handsome gun in his hand, Li Zheng felt a headache.

He was so focused on protecting his wrists and arms that he forgot that this thing had a disadvantage. It was loud.

In a small room like this, it’s dangerous to fire a shot.

“Let’s go and see the effect of the shot. ”

Li Zheng walked over to the incubator liquid storage tank. He found that the bullet hole was as thick as a little finger, and it had pierced through the tank without any cracks.

Following the bullet hole, Li Zheng saw a small hole in the ground, but he didn’t find the bullet.

“It seems that after being modified by black-technology, this gun no longer uses conventional bullets. It was similar to an energy bullet, and…”

Li Zheng looked at the virtual screen that had appeared on the gun. There was a battery icon on it, and beside it was a number indicating that it was 99%.

“Although this gun doesn’t need to be reloaded, it consumes energy. Perhaps after the energy is depleted, I’ll have to change the power core.”

“A power core will provide 100 shots?”

“That’s acceptable. ”

After all, in terms of power, this was not too much.

“Let’s try the special shooting mode.”

Li Zheng popped out the magazine and found that it was made up of intricate gears. The tiny gears on both sides could hold bullets of all types.

After checking its size, Li Zheng realized that he had something he could try putting in.

“I just don’t know if it can be fired without gunpowder.”

A few hair-like objects appeared in his hands. They were none other than the bronze-grade snake grass needles.

He carefully inserted the snake grass needles into the magazine until it was full, which took exactly 20 needles.

“Although it’s a pistol, its capacity is like that of a machine gun…”

Li Zheng was even more satisfied with this gun.

Crack.

With a crisp sound, the magazine moved into place.

“Set to special shooting mode, then…”

Li Zheng rolled up his sleeves and covered his ears with one hand, trying to minimize the damage to his ears from the loud gunshot.

“I don’t want to be deaf for another three minutes.”

He raised his gun, aimed at the liquid storage tank, and pulled the trigger.

Whoosh!

It was different from normal shooting.

This time, the sound caused by the shooting was much smaller, almost inaudible.

Li Zheng thought that it was because he had covered his ears, so he removed the plug and fired again.

Whoosh!

“Is it because of the special shooting mode, or the snake grass needles?”

Without any other special ammunition as a reference, Li Zheng couldn’t know.

But that wasn’t important.

“What’s important is whether the power is reduced because of this. ”

As he approached the liquid storage tank, two more tiny holes appeared on it, like the eye of a needle.

Li Zheng walked past the tank, but he didn’t see any new bullet holes on the ground behind it.

“From the looks of it, the snake grass needle is a plant after all. Although it can be used as a special ammunition, its texture is not strong enough. So after penetrating the liquid storage tank, the snake grass needle turned into powder.”

Li Zheng took note of this.

“In conclusion, normal shooting can be used in any battle situation. The disadvantage is that it makes too much noise, and the recoil is too large to control.”

“Shooting snake grass needles is the complete opposite. It’s only suitable for soft barriers, such as human skin. However, this was enough. After all, snake grass needles are poisonous. As long as they could break through the enemy’s skin, they could send the poison into the enemy’s body.”

“There are also advantages, discreet and almost no recoil. ”

But he had yet to figure out the toxicity of the snake grass.

He glanced at the virtual screen. The remaining energy was at 97%.

“The energy consumption for the two shooting modes is the same.”

“Not bad, we’ve profited from this deal.”

Li Zheng put away the Desert Eagle gun. He had no intention of continuing his shooting practice. Instead, he took out another flame flower.

The flower only had ten minutes left before it expired. If it was not consumed in ten minutes, it would wilt and become trash.

At this moment, Li Zheng received a private message from Feng Shan.

“I received the special ability. As a token of my gratitude, I’ll give you a piece of information for free.”

“The so-called fire gene is actually similar to a superpower. It’s just that it has been converted into a skill here.

“Skills can be leveled up, but you need more items that can develop special genes. If you get another item that can develop fire-type genes, please consider trading with me first.”

Li Zheng: “…”

Was it a success?

2% chance was enough?

Damn!

As a gamer, how could he lose to him?

No way!

[Flame flower]

Li Zheng showed the remaining flame flower to Feng Shan through a private chat, then sent a message to the world channel.

[Matrix channel 000879, Li Zheng: Flame flower, a silver-grade item that can activate a skill. The previous customer has successfully awakened the skill, and there are still nine minutes before it expires. If you are interested, name a price.]

In the next moment, Li Zheng’s private messages skyrocketed to 999+ in an instant.

At first, Li Zheng was opening them one by one, but they were all asking for guidance and help.

What was interesting was that Feng Shan was also provoked.

“!!!!!”

“???”

“F*ck!”

“You actually have another flower!”

“I… I want more!”

“Didn’t you want the lightsaber blueprint? I’ll trade it!”

“Trade with me!”

Li Zheng’s lips twitched. “I knew you weren’t being honest. Now you’ve exposed yourself.”

It’s too late!

Even though the lightsaber was cool, it was still a close-combat weapon. How could it compare to the long-range Desert Eagle?

“Should I trade with him?”

Li Zheng felt conflicted for a while

“The lightsaber blueprint also requires a type III power core to be built. Although I got a damaged one by smashing the refrigerator, wouldn’t it be better to upgrade the detector?”

Li Zheng gave Feng Shan a simple reply.

“No!”

Then, he blocked Feng Shan and set to unblock him after 10 minutes.

When he was unblocked, the remaining flame flower would either be sold or it would have wilted.

In short, he could forget about getting another flower.

Then, he went through his messages and filtered out the useless flattery, and searched for “type III power core”.

Although there were many messages, Li Zheng didn’t have high hopes that someone would trade a power core type III.

After all, not everyone could get through ten rooms in just two hours like Feng Shan, let alone have a silver-grade item.

However, one person really did have a type III power core.

When he looked at the sender, Li Zheng found that it was another familiar name.

It was another big shot from the same channel.

Zhan Zhouzhou!
