Chapter 285: Message
Shane's help was certainly not for free. Magnus had previously mentioned the skill of his right-hand man. It was something that really caught his interest. He might consider it as one of the payments he would be asking later…
Thud… Thud…
In just a few moments after setting up the turret, Magnus and his subordinate arrived…
They seemed to have jumped from below. Your journey continues with mvl
'Ohh… They're using the Jumper Shoes. Did they upgrade it to Tier 4?' Shane mused as he just noticed that they were actually using the Jumper Shoes that could be looted from Jumper Zombie.
Furthermore, they jumped more than 8 meters high, so they must've used the Leap Skill, which costs about 60 Spirit Points per usage…
"Sir Shane… Is that… Is that something that you can buy in the Survivor Store? No, is it in the Reputation Store?" Magnus asked as he marveled at the sight of the armament in front of him.
He couldn't describe it other than being too advanced for the setting! Even in their previous world, they shouldn't have such an incredible weapon of war.
However, now that he thinks about it, advanced weapons might really be what they need to obtain from now on. They were too focused on getting proficient with the Survivor Skills or leveling up… Perhaps they should really focus on getting rich to obtain such weapons or, perhaps, find weapon engineers!
"It's not from those stores… I have my own source for this weapon, and I'm not willing to tell you about it. Anyway, I'm planning to use this to fight against the Giant Zombie. Once I leave this place, you have to think about other methods you can use to defend this place." Shane replied.
"Of course… But before that, is it alright if I appraise this weapon?" Magnus asked.
"Mhmm… If you do that, you'll learn about its weaknesses as well. That's not good." Shane answered as he shook his head.
Magnus expected this much since he also didn't want others to know the skills and cooldown of his Enhanced Moon Blade.
"How about I pay you with two Zombie Recruitment Stones?" Magnus asked
"Huh? Why would I need those recruitment stones?" Shane asked in confusion.
"To train your skills and loot them, of course… You may not know this, but your Survivor Skill proficiency levels will go up faster if you use them against the Zombie summoned by this item. Furthermore, if you managed to summon a high-tier zombie, it was said that they would drop everything that could be looted from them! It's a 100% Drop Rate!" Magnus explained with enthusiasm.
He needed Shane to like this item after all.
As for them, they still have other Zombie Recruitment Stones, and none of them have wanted to summon one.
After all, if they get unlucky and summon a high-tier Zombie, it would be disastrous for them. It was simply too difficult to kill any of the high-tier Zombies.
With this in consideration, they planned to wait until they were stronger, or perhaps when they obtained a lucky charm before trying one of the stones.
"So there's a feature like that… Fine, give me those two recruitment stones first." Shane replied after some thought.
In any case, he believed that advanced weapons would soon appear. The fact that a terrible Wild Shelter already had an Automated Turret, means that there could be more Wild Shelters out there with more advanced weapons. It was only a matter of time before their existence was known.
"Thank you!" Magnus replied as he handed over the Zombie Recruitment Stones.
After that, Shane allowed him to check the item.
[ Sentinel Mk-IV Automated Turret ( Exceptional )
The Sentinel Mk-IV Automated Turret is a masterpiece of defense technology that combines three weapon technologies. This turret is also equipped with dual weaponry systems. This is an autonomous turret that is perfect for dealing with a huge wave of Zombies.
Specifications:
- Energy Bullets: The turret's primary ammunition type, energy bullets, are highly concentrated beams of pure energy that can pierce through armor and disintegrate obstacles with ease. These devastating shots are effective at neutralizing both organic and mechanical threats.
- Incendiary Bombs: These explosive projectiles unleash a torrent of searing flames upon impact, engulfing targets in a blazing inferno and causing widespread destruction.
Features:
- Advanced Targeting System: The turret possessed an advanced targeting system that can track and engage multiple threats simultaneously with pinpoint accuracy.
- Autonomous Operation: Capable of independent decision-making and target prioritization, the Sentinel Mk-IV can adapt to changing battlefield conditions.
- Remote Control Compatibility: For enhanced tactical flexibility, the turret can be controlled remotely by operators, allowing for precise targeting and strategic positioning.
Power Cores: 10/10
Note: The Sentinel Mk-IV is a rare and valuable asset that can turn the tide of any conflict in favor of those who wield its formidable power. However, it uses a lot of Power Cores for its operations. ]
"This is incredible… Are you really not planning to sell this item to us? You just name a price…" Magnus said as he read the item description. It was truly a marvelous technology that could surely help their shelter defend it even against high-tier Zombies!
"That's impossible… However, if I have some extra and planning to sell one, you'll be the first to know." Shane replied that he didn't know whether their Ironcal Imperium Clan would be useful to him soon.
Suddenly, dark clouds started to gather above them. Lightning and thunder followed as the rain was threatening to fall.
"We need to take cover…" Shane said before Magnus could ask once more.
Soon, the rain fell in a relentless curtain, drumming against the shelter's stone walls and roofs. The inhabitants of the shelter scurried to their homes, seeking refuge from the downpour.
However, those stationed in watchtowers and guard posts tightened their grips on weapons, eyes scanning the mist-shrouded forest. After all, the effect of the most weakens by more than 50% during this time.
Suddenly, a person from below sprinted toward Magnus…
"Sir Magnus! Hurry! Look at the World Chat!"
