Overall Evaluation: Perfect

Over the past 15 days, Feng Luo’s best combat profession achievement had been to reach Level 45 . If one were to minimize the factors that had caused his level to be low, then his achievements in his life profession were even greater! This was because, upon closer inspection, the Level-45 Rare-grade sniper rifle that had electricity coursing through it had the word “Perfect” written in its stats .

A piece of Rare-grade Perfect equipment—there was naturally no need to repeat what this meant!

For Feng Luo, the “Eye of the Thunder” blueprints that he had managed to get his hands on during the mission in the Town of Exiles by coincidence had turned into a money-printing machine that had produced credits .

Of course, this was exaggerating it a little . Because although he had produced a Perfect-grade Eye of the Thunder—which meant that Feng Luo could use the Eye of the Thunder blueprints without limits—it did not mean that he would be able to produce countless Eye of the Thunder in a short amount of time! In War, when it came to producing equipment, there was a hidden limit: “raw materials . ”

Apart from traditional materials, in the production of the Eye of the Thunder, there was also a Rare mineral called “Thunder Sand” and a chitin material dropped by a Level-40 monster called the “Ultralisk . ” The former could be obtained through mining at an extremely low probability, while the latter was only dropped by Ultralisks that were above the Commander grade .

This directly restrained Feng Luo’s production rate of the Eye of the Thunder . Even when he specifically put out information on the Exchange about trying to purchase the material at a high price, he had still failed to purchase many over the course of the past 24 hours .

Judging by the current situation, obtaining seven to 10 batches of materials a day on average was the limit . Of course, even if he only had seven batches of materials, he would still make a killing . That was because the stats and attributes of a complete Eye of the Thunder were definitely not inferior to the Python of Death Barrett that players coveted right now!

The reason the Barrett was so coveted was because of its powerful attack and attack coefficient that reached C grade . Added to that was the rare piercing effect stat that could be said to maximize the potential of every bullet fired from the gun to its absolute limit .

It needed to be noted that one should not underestimate the 850 attack stat of the Barrett that the Big Boss had taken from Lu Chen—which was supposed to have been gifted to Feng Luo—thinking that it had only 100 more attack points than the Eye of the Thunder . Thus, it was not really high .

One had to pay attention and note that the Eye of the Thunder was of a Perfect-grade while the Barrett was only a Standard-grade . For a sniper rifle like the Barrett, which had attack power as its strongest stat, if a Python of Death that was evaluated as Perfect were to be created, its attack stat would probably reach 950 or even 1,000 . That would mean that it was one-third more than the Eye of the Thunder . Its attack was, without a doubt, the best!

The reason why the Eye of the Thunder was not inferior to the Barrett in terms of its stats and attributes was that the Eye of the Thunder was not an attack-focused rifle; it was coveted for its attack speed!

After completely assembling the gun, the stat “Bullet Loading Speed +40%” became “Shooting Speed +35% . ” Calculating through this, the rate of fire for Maximum Shooting was only around one second, which was a degree faster than the Barrett!

Furthermore, with the complete set, the trigger rate of the electricity effect was directly increased to 15 percent, and naturally, there was no need to talk about that effect!

(Note: The sniper rifle was considered a “set item . ” It was mentioned earlier that after a sniper rifle was completely assembled, the stats of the rifle would experience partial enhancement . )

Apart from that, among the basic stats of the Barrett, there was only an increase of 20 in Agility . As for the Eye of the Thunder, there was an increase of 25 points in Agility and 10 points in Strength . This was enough to make up for the attack power gap between the two .

As such, the Eye of the Thunder was really no weaker than the Python of Death . It was only because most players were used to pursuing pure attack power that the Barrett’s price was pushed so high .

Feng Luo believed that truly top-notch players would naturally be able to analyze the advantages and disadvantages between the two and select the sniper rifle that best suited the individual . There was definitely no need to worry about the price of the Eye of the Thunder .

******

At that time, two Level-30 Gatherer Beetles had already brought back the items dropped by the Swamp Rock Crocodile from a distance away .

A white crystal worth 100 credits…

Feng Luo generously threw the crystal to 24K—whose gaze was fixed firmly on the crystal while standing on Feng Luo’s shoulder—allowing it to use two of its small golden claws to grasp the crystal while munching on it .

There was no choice . He was going to have some money soon . As for the transparent crystal material held by the other Gatherer Beetle, it was the real reason he had come here .

Crystallized Tear of the Swamp Crocodile: A crystal that contains unique substances . Has the function of soothing the central nervous system and can be used to produce some unique medicine .

Feng Luo put this material into his backpack before flipping through his system logs .

Obtained 100g of Crystallized Tear of the Swamp Crocodile . Lin’s Request (II) Mission Completion Rate: Four/Six .

It was true . The reason why Feng Luo had stayed close to Storm City was that he needed to help Lin with her mission . Or, more precisely, it was the mission to complete Lin’s request .

In fact, the mission had come because he had been looking for it . After he’d personally delivered five sets of T-virus samples to Lin’s research lab in Storm City and his relationship with Lin had directly increased to “Trustful,” he had brought the Excellent-grade Type Three Enhancement Potion that Mu Zi hadn’t wanted . It had a success rate of 75 percent, and he wanted to see if Lin could find a way to increase the success rate of the potion . At the same time, he did not pay attention and let slip the fact that he had an Enhancement Potion with a 100 percent success rate on him .

Unexpectedly, the Enhancement Potion had piqued Lin’s interest . She’d even ditched the five T-virus samples on the side and directly asked him for the T-virus Enhancement Potion with a 100 percent success rate . Moreover, it was presented in the form of the system issuing missions . If he accepted the mission, then his approval rating with Lin would increase even further, and they would enter into a “Friendly” status . If he were to decline the mission, however, Lin’s approval of him would drop straight to the lowest level . To put it simply, they wouldn’t even be friends anymore .

Rip-off… This is a total rip-off!

Feng Luo cursed the system in his mind as he exchanged the Enhancement Potion that could be sold for a couple of million credits for the approval of an NPC .

Unless one was a super wealthy tycoon, under normal circumstances, how many people would be able to still their hearts and accept a mission like this? However, after Feng Luo cursed in his mind, a smile quickly appeared on his face as he took the Perfect Enhancement Potion out from his backpack before speaking to Lin .

“Yeah, if you want it, of course . Here, take it!”

He had no choice . When facing NPCs, acting on the spot was also a type of skill!

As for whether it was worth it? A young, busty woman who was a genius, a chip expert, and a geneticist double master, as well as a virology expert… But wait—no . When Feng Luo had last met with Lin, he’d discovered that she had reached the Master level for virology! The friendship of a young female genius at the Master level in three life professions… Was that worth several million credits?

On this, one only needed to refer to the pointers given by Old John, whom Feng Luo suspected was a Gun Mechanic Master . The pointers allowed him to ultimately produce a Perfect-grade Eye of the Thunder, which would bring him a huge amount of credits in the future . It was enough to determine whether it was worth it .

Of course, it was worth it!

However, the only unfortunate thing for Feng Luo was that after Old John left the shop that day, he had only returned once when Feng Luo was in Roguetown .

The two salespersons followed Feng Luo’s instructions and gave him crystals worth 100,000 credits, but Old John only took 50,000 credits that he’d mentioned previously before leaving Silvermoon City . He hadn’t returned to the shop since . Feng Luo wondered if it was something he had done, or if perhaps Old John’s mission procedure was just like that…

However, he couldn’t do anything at the moment, since Old John hadn’t left behind any information or clues . It was incredibly difficult for a player to look for an NPC in the huge world of War . It was also improbable for Feng Luo to look for intelligence organizations like the Hunter’s Guild, since it might bring Old John’s Gun Mechanic Master identity to their attention . Plus, apart from Lin’s current mission, he still had a more important mission that he needed to start doing in a few days . It was related to the content of the chip that the Colonel had asked the soldier to hand over to him after the Roguetown mission had ended .

Within the chip was a mission that no player would ever pass up . It was a unique, hidden mission that affected a player’s profession .

Beep…

At that time, Feng Luo’s communicator suddenly rang . As Feng Luo glanced over, he found that it was actually Mu Wu! Dusk Swamp was not very far away from the Storm City, so the communicator could receive long-range communications from over there .

“Old Feng, there’s good news for you,” said Mu Wu . He tried to keep Feng Luo guessing for a bit before continuing, “There’s an internal conflict in the Roaring Dragon Mercenary Group!”
