Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 124: Another boss monster

   This battle is a bit different for Lawrence. He only absorbed some of the energy lost when the souls of the killed monsters merge into nature. These soul energy is only equivalent to 1/10 of the energy left by the evil monsters of the same level.

After discovering this, Lawrence briefly thought about it and thought it might be because this monster is just an ordinary extraordinary monster, not an evil creature, and naturally its soul will not be actively absorbed by Bai Ze Phantom. .

Just as Lawrence summarized this new discovery, the magic gunner, who was the captain of the opposing team, brought members of his team over, and at the same time extended his right hand and thanked Lawrence: "Thank you so much, otherwise, My teammates and I will be really troublesome this time."

"It's nothing, after all, we are all civilized people. When we encounter these barbaric monsters, we naturally have to help each other. And the purpose of this competition is not to connect everyone with friendship and make everyone more united?" Lawrence also He stretched out his right hand and shook it with the plain-looking young man opposite.

Next is a self-introduction to each other. From this introduction, Lawrence also learned that this squad is indeed from the Republic of New Continent. The captain is called Zhu Yan, who is known as the Devil Gunner in Aurora. Magic gunner. In addition to him, there are also the warrior named Zuo Guan Yong in heavy armor and the puppet master Mo Yu who is manipulating the puppet beast to fight.

   Unexpectedly, the young man holding a Yingzhou-style scimitar was not a handsome man, but a female swordsman named Okita Sakura. She made the shout just now.

   Although Xinzhou Republic is a country dominated by Sinian descent, it does not mean that it is a single-ethnic country. Among them are a series of descendants of colonists from the Aurora vassal states such as Silla, Nanzhang, Zhenla, and Yingzhou, as well as many local aborigines, elves and dwarves of various races. This Miss Okita Sakura is obviously from Yingzhou.

   This team is not weak in terms of configuration, and there are not many shortcomings in professional arrangements. But their weakness lies in the lack of certain players who have mastered the powerful skills of the final word, so that they seem helpless after encountering a guy whose skills are all defensive.

   After a brief discussion, the two teams decided to divide the materials obtained from these monsters in 3:2 according to the rules of adventurers. However, out of Zhu Yan's gratitude for Lawrence and the others for extending a helping hand, Lawrence and the others were equivalent to obtaining all the materials on the official-level monster boss.

"It turns out that you are a warlock. I'll just say why what you did just now is different from most magic gunners' fighting style." With the help of two warriors, Raqqa and Moyu divided the monster's body to obtain raw materials. At that time, Zhu Yan also chatted with Lawrence. "It's a pity that our team doesn't have a caster this time, otherwise it wouldn't be so embarrassed."

   Even among the transcendents, the caster is very rare. On average, there will only be one caster for every ten transcendents, and the casters mentioned here also include sorcerers like Lawrence who are regarded as half-casters by wizards. Therefore, it is normal to say that there is a lack of casters in the participating teams in the Republic of New China.

"In fact, you are just a bit bad luck. All the extraordinary powers like this are placed on defense. Monsters that rely solely on hand-to-hand combat are too rare. Normal teams will have more trouble facing them." Lawrence comforted. Dao, while looking at the gun that Zhu Yan was carrying behind. "If you read this gun correctly, you should be able to fire it continuously, right?"

   "Yes." After saying this, Zhu Yan immediately showed a proud expression. "This is to use the gas generated after the bullet is fired to push the piston to reload. Look at the magazine here. It can be loaded with 20 bullets at a time. I can shoot them all by pulling the trigger here."

"The overall structure of this gun is exquisite, and it is not because of extraordinary power that allows it to shoot continuously." John, who has received complete training in active military firearms, looked at Zhu Yan's continuous automatic rifle and commented, "I believe This is also a direction for the development of firearms in the future."

   "Why is it the future direction of development?" Lawrence seemed a little confused. He was really surprised what the industrial system of this world was all about. "Obviously, the structure of this gun does not contain any power related to transcendence. Can't the outside arsenal imitate these things?"

"It's really impossible." Zhu Yan explained, "The principle of this gun can indeed be reproduced by non-superior power, but many structural parts inside can only achieve the required strength by using super-material materials. In addition, the accuracy of this gun on parts has exceeded the limit of current industrial processing capabilities, and can only be processed by extraordinary power."

"In other words, the most important difficulty faced by ordinary people in manufacturing this weapon is material science and processing ability." Lawrence shrugged, and he finally understood why such an advanced design could not be popularized. : For the industrial level, materials and processing capabilities are basically the cornerstones. If the design that cannot meet these two points is good, it will be useless. You can only stay on the drawings.

   is just different from the previous world of Lawrence. Because of the existence of extraordinary power in this world, some designs that are obviously beyond this era can also be customized and produced with the help of extraordinary power. But this does not mean that this kind of thing can be popularized.

   While chatting, everyone has collected almost all the materials on the monster. Unfortunately, the characteristics of this monster are too clear, so their skins and teeth are worth collecting.

   After simply dividing the spoils, Lawrence and the others bid farewell to the team from the New Continent Republic. It's just that they made an appointment five days later, that is, the sixth day after entering this space, they went directly to the mine to meet.

   "Now we have a total of 153 points." After Zhu Yan and the others have gone far, Koge said. "Just now the biggest official-level boss monster was counted on our team, and the points of a few small monsters killed by us were also added~lightnovelpub.net~ so it is said that you are pregnant When a kind heart extends a helping hand to others, destiny will also prepare a gift for you. Everything you do will receive the feedback it deserves—"John took this opportunity to start with everyone Give some moral education.

   "Okay, okay." Seeing John's eloquent posture, Reso quickly stopped him. "Every minute here is important, so let's calm down and set off for the goal."

   In the rest of the day, Lawrence and the others seemed to have used up all their luck. Basically, they did not encounter any extraordinary monsters except for the two arrow rats acting alone.

"In fact, our luck is already very good." When we camped at night, Lawrence encouraged the players who seemed a little discouraged. "During the day, I chatted with the captain of the Republic of New Continent, except for us. I also ran into two other teams, and they only scored more than ten to twenty points. They didn't meet the leader monster at all."

   "If you say that, we are indeed lucky." Resso took a sip of the coffee I had just come out and said, then he raised his head to look at Lawrence. "By the way, how does the magic that you attacked the boss monster during the day looks like a missile storm!"

   "It's Missile Storm." Lawrence smiled, "I successfully upgraded to a third-level warlock last night."

   "This is amazing." Reso shouted, and everyone's attention was drawn. After a brief explanation of what happened here, happy smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

   "It's amazing!" John said, tapping Lawrence on the shoulder, "Now the chances of our team getting to the front are all of a sudden."
