Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 99: Chapter 99: New School



Having finished introducing the Villain Mask, Kolete opened another box.

"— Alloy Electric Spear Mark II. Compared to the regular mechanical spears in the market, it has a higher voltage and a stronger current, capable of paralyzing medium to large prey to a certain extent.

"In addition, the spear itself is forged from a special alloy, extremely sturdy, almost unbreakable, and wears very little, making it perfect for extended combat."

Boggy lifted one out of the box and found that this enhanced version of the mechanical spear was slightly heavier than the regular one, with a sharper tip and a blood groove on it.

As for the electric shock effect, that would have to be tested in actual combat, but for now, Boggy was quite satisfied with the new weapon in hand.

Kolete, his hands never stopping, had already opened the third chest by now, and this time, the contents were somewhat familiar to Ma Lu.

— Handgun.

Perhaps because of the different natural resources available, the technology between the two planes also varied quite a bit.

Ma Lu had hardly seen any firearms here, as most of the weapons and equipment were electrically driven.

Like his previous hand crossbow, and now the handgun in front of him, which, strictly speaking, was also an electrically powered piece of equipment.

The bullets were propelled by an electric motor compressing air, not ignited gunpowder.

This handgun, referred to by Kolete as the Destroyer, was at least three times the size of traditional handguns; even an M500 appeared somewhat miniature in comparison. Perhaps 'hand cannon' was a more fitting name for it.

Its weight was also staggering, almost 5kg, which would fatigue its user if held for a while—a bona fide piece of gym equipment.

However, the sacrifice in size and weight was exchanged for an increase in power; the range also increased from the 15-20 meters of the hand crossbow to 50 meters.

It could also be equipped with more than one type of bullet: besides the standard metal rounds, there were tranquilizer, explosive, smoke, and electric shot... At the same time, compared to the hand crossbow that could only shoot one arrow at a time, the Destroyer could achieve a five-round burst, further enhancing its practicality.

And the weight was not a problem for Ma Lu, thanks to the blessings of the Meat Pigeon he could pile on.

As for the size, well, it certainly wasn't suitable for tucking into a coat for a sneak attack, but, it must be said, holding it in hand looked quite stylish.

For men, bigger is better! Bigger is cooler!

And Ma Lu particularly liked its multi-bullet mode, useful for handling various situations

Especially once he got the desktop farming plot fixed up, it would be time for the tranquilizer and electric rounds to shine when he needed to catch live ones.

After introducing the first three pieces of equipment, Kolete moved to the last and also the largest box.

His mood also became more excited, and he even went to the radio to switch to an even wilder song.

Only when the melody reached its climax did he open that chest.

Inside was an extra-large backpack.

"— Fury Wings."

Kolete whistled and introduced, "Product of lost technology, my favorite piece of equipment, it can grant hunters the ability to fly.

"Although it only lasts for four and a half minutes with a maximum altitude of 120 meters, the speed can reach 50 meters per second, which exceeds many flying beasts."

"But to use it proficiently requires a lot of training, I'm not sure if you'll still have the chance for that."

"Don't jinx us, if we die, you won't live much longer either," Mai Mai said.

Kolete was unconcerned, "Everyone will die, it's just a matter of sooner or later. It is for this reason that we must enjoy life even more!"

"Anyway, thanks for bringing the new equipment over."

Mai Mai said, "We're about to leave the city, and we should be able to make use of these items."

"You're welcome, just remember to send any lost technology artifacts you find to me for research first." Kolete said, "Also, please help me keep a record of how the equipment is used."

"No problem."

"Alright, go do what you need to do, I'm going to find a place to have a drink."

After saying that, Kolete hitched up his pants and went back to the transport vehicle. Without bothering to take the radio back from the roof, he drove off while blaring rock music.

"He really is an oddball," Seta said.

"Yeah, but he's also the best weapons expert in Giant Curtain," Mai Mai said, "Maybe that's the privilege of a genius he was talking about."

"Kolete, I've heard that name too," Boggy said, "It's said that he is also the equipment consultant for two Diamond Hunting Groups. I thought he would be an old man, but it turns out he's pretty young."

While they were talking, the members of the Twin Sunflower Hunting Group had already divided up the batch of equipment.

Each person got a Villain Mask just right, there were three Alloy Electric Spears Mark II in total; Boggy took two, and the other one went to Seta.

There were two Destroyers, one for Ma Lu and one for Mai Mai, and the last two Fury Wings were temporarily placed on the motorcycles of Boggy and Sadie.

The five of them didn't head straight to the guild hall but instead went to the market on the underground floor first, where they spent 10,000 Electric Degrees to purchase a batch of fresh game.

It was the beast tide now, so the purchasing price for various meats had dropped quite a bit, but at the same time, the selling prices had become cheaper as well.

Moreover, Ma Lu planned to resell them after killing them, and with 10,000 Electric Degrees, he managed to buy 7 three-star ingredients and 124 two-star ingredients.

In total, he obtained 3 Golden Blessing strips, 36 Purple Blessing strips, and 92 Blue Blessing strips.

Ma Lu had purchased [Troubles of Happiness] in the last round, but because blessings refreshed too quickly and he didn't have time to choose, he didn't realize the function of this strange item worth 1999 points until now.

An extra option increased the chances of obtaining high-quality blessings significantly.

Adding to his good luck this time, the 7 three-star ingredients yielded 3 Golden Blessings.

Moreover, this time Ma Lu had already decided on the school of tactics he wanted to build from the start.

He first used Sticky Web to get back a Purple Blessing.

[Puppet Master: After killing a target, your team members have a 33% chance to turn the target into a Corpse Puppet, which can exist for 7 minutes each, with a maximum of 15 Corpse Puppets at the same time.]

This Purple Blessing was a surprise gain for Ma Lu the last time he left, when he was sniping small monsters on the city wall to collect points.

And he soon recognized the value of this blessing.

—Summoning style, and it was the core blessing of the undead summoning style.

Like the Explosion Flow, the undead summoning style was also well-suited to cope with the current environment filled with monsters.

Compared to the Explosion Flow, the undead summoning style had additional uses.

This is why Ma Lu, as soon as the game started, was willing to give up a divine skill like [Charge with Hits] to stick with [Puppet Master], and did so without hesitation.

He also promptly activated the effect of the work plan, specifying [Puppet Master] to build his school of tactics.

As for the Golden Blessing, he still chose [Super Mimicry Show].

Besides, Ma Lu also earned a massive amount of points in the last round of the game.

A total of 21,542 points, plus the remaining 6,832 points from before, he now had a total of 27,374 points on him.

So, he bought two more strange items from the Strange Object Store.
