National Juggernaut

Chapter 151 The cornerstone of the era

"Uh, familiar...not so familiar ceiling."

While the alarm clock was beeping, when Zheng Li woke up from his confusion, it took him a while to recover from his low blood pressure confusion.

This is the third day back. The Peace Corps just disbanded on the second day of vacation. Everyone is busy with their own affairs. Zheng Li has also moved into the new headquarters, enjoying the smell of formaldehyde and other decoration materials.

Although the firefly cart made the journey less tiring, Zheng Li hadn't rested since the accident, and the accumulated fatigue still needed some relief.

"It's Friday? Well, it seems that we can't delay. Many things are scheduled for this weekend, and many stores are still open."

Shaking his head, Zheng Li went to wash his face even though it was still pitch dark outside, and then knocked on the door next door.

"Get up, Rabbit. Uh, what are you doing?"

The door next door opened as soon as it was knocked. Lan Mengqi was lying on the bed, eating snacks while reading comics. The communication device next to her was still playing the latest TV series. She was living comfortably.

Every time this happens, Zheng Li will lament the energy advantage of the rabbit race, and then hesitate whether he is too tolerant of her. This kind of person can't be killed by 996 every day, maybe ten hours a day, in her It's an easy job system there.

"Our work system over there? Most people don't work. If you want a job, you have to apply for it. It's very troublesome."

Uh, every time, she can say words that make people want to beat her up.

But this time, Zheng Li did give benefits to people.

"Let's go, I'll take you to buy some equipment. Take your leopard with you too."

After speaking, Zheng Li went out first.

Last night, he sent a text message to Yuying who was going home to reunite with his sister, asking if she needed to buy some equipment and consumables, and if necessary, we will come together today.

".Just us?"

"Well, without the firefly, she will definitely be clamoring to buy a bunch of stuff that she can't even afford. If you come, it's just you and my rabbit."

".Then I don't need it for the time being. I bought all the man-made spiritual artifacts I need. I'm going out again soon. If possible, I'll stay with my sister for two more days."

Uh, it seems a little unhappy, Zheng Li shook his head helplessly, this time it is really just a simple purchase, the time is too tight.

"Lan Mengqi, if you have any equipment needs, just tell me directly. What Leopard needs is equal to what you need, although I don't think it should have any needs."

This is not purchasing spiritual materials. Feeding spiritual blades is too slow to take effect. To this extent, if it is not an urgently needed material, the cost of hunting and exchanging is lower. Buying is probably the most efficient but the worst way.

Although several spiritual blades were waiting to be fed, the deficits in Zheng Li's finances could not withstand further hemorrhage.

Everything he has to do now is to improve the immediate combat power of himself and the team.

The target area was not far away, and it was only half an hour's walk there. I got up a little too early, so Zheng Li took Lan Mengqi all the way there.

"Here, reminds me of my hometown."

Glancing at the sighing rabbit, Zheng Li nodded silently. Not to mention that Lan Mengqi felt that the scene in front of her was like the technological world of her hometown. When Zheng Li saw it for the first time, he thought of the old earth.

Uniform high-rise buildings, clean and bright streets and alleys, there are even sprinklers and cleaning figures on the road, but I don't know if they are hired by the Iron Man District or a substitute for man-made spiritual tools.

If it is the latter, there should be no self-awareness and advanced intelligence. Unless it is the creation of the four gods, the "third blade" similar to the rabbit, can't give her back the combat leopard with biological energy.

Walking on the road, Zheng Li still sighed a little.

In this era, bright and high-power street lamps are out-and-out luxury goods, and only the most prosperous Balu Street in Bailu District can afford these consumables that may be scrapped at any time.

This is the most prosperous commercial district in Bailu District. If the Jinhaiyan Market on Friendship Avenue is a gathering place for spiritual materials on the Fourth Ring Road, it is also a gathering place for large and small companies. point.

"Choose, at most three, at least one, with a total budget of 30 yuan, and discuss with me if it exceeds the budget. By the way, remember to buy the ones with 'military use' and 'combat orientation' signs. Civilian equipment is too easy to damage."

That's right, Zheng Li came here specifically to buy man-made spiritual weapons.

Artificial spirit tools, as imitations of real spirit tools, have quite a few shortcomings and weaknesses, but in this era, they have become the cornerstone of civilization, and countless companies and individuals have invested in their development and innovation.

Demand is the best source of power.

An ordinary rookie fighter often only has three or four blades when he walks out of the big city, and his ability construction is quite immature.

With melee ability, it lacks long-range output ability, and those who are inclined to attack have no time to take defense into account. In some cases, this is extremely fatal, and no one can predict what kind of opponent they will encounter.

Moreover, this is not the biggest shortcoming of newcomers, the low breakthrough level of the spirit blade is the deadliest shortcoming.

The natural spirit blades of 0 and 1 are just spiritual weapons with slightly special abilities, and to a considerable extent, they are not as good as the slightly expensive man-made spiritual weapons.

For example, the rabbit's moon-jumping boots have a short burst of jumping ability at zero burst, and a certain amount of attack ability at one burst, which may not be comparable to famous brand military boots.

"Uh, Zheng Li, these boots seem to be better than mine."

What the rabbit pointed to was a rocket boot with a lightning logo on it, which marked acceleration jet, emergency stop, and rock climbing ability, and the price was not very expensive.

"Oh. You can't buy Banru rocket boots. You can see that there is no battle logo of 'sword' on its trademark. It will break down quickly after going out. Although artificial spiritual weapons break down quickly, civilian products will be reimbursed. The speed will be beyond your imagination, you don't want to fly in mid-air and suddenly lose power. If you want a spare speed boot, you can consider the explosive spark brand, the one over there."

The rabbit followed the target Zheng Li pointed at, and then shook his head without hesitation.

"It's ugly! Don't!"

It was a pair of dark green military boots, with only the air vents on the heel, showing its identity as a man-made spiritual weapon.

Zheng Li flipped through it. The price tag is 12, and it only has the function of short-range burst jet. Uh, the handsome civil rocket boots with full marks on the side not only have many functions, but actually only sell for 6500, but the two are not of the same grade at all.

On the military boots label, there are two numbers on the sword, the upper one is "six to twelve months of durability", and the lower one is "300 hours of long-term operation", which undoubtedly marks the combat limit time of this military rocket boots. If it takes one month to take it back and leave it unused, it will be scrapped for at most one year.

As far as Zheng Li's experience is concerned, the advertisement of this thing has to be discounted again. If it is really played, it can be used for 100 hours, which is not bad.

The most important thing in the trademark is indeed the line of small characters below, the red "47", which means that if a certain degree of spiritual energy pollution or divine energy radiation is involved, it will be directly reimbursed.

"I remember, the first night we went out, the psionic radiation on the battlefield reached 67. Garbage."

In a sense, Zheng Li was a little scared. The worst losses on the battlefield must have been all kinds of man-made spiritual weapons. Fortunately, when he and his party went out, they were too poor and rushed, so they didn’t purchase military man-made spiritual weapons. The only loss The most important thing is the civilian "flying sword" of Little Yinghuo.

But this does not mean that the man-made spiritual weapon is useless. If it is used in the city, it may not only reach the limit of 300 hours of use, but also easily exceed the one-year shelf life.

The defense forces in major cities not only have the habit of purchasing a large number of man-made spiritual weapons, but also various military facilities and defense equipment. Even civilians have one or two in their homes, so they can go to the battlefield when necessary.

And sword masters, there are very few people who don't use artificial spirit blades at all.

As long as you spend a sum of money, you can actually get an extra "two sudden spirit blade" with optional functions. This temptation is so delicious, let alone newcomers, many veterans can't resist. Possibly a sunk cost.

Compare the gap between the Explosive Spark military boots and the moon boots, except for the shorter service life, the inability to repay bioenergy, unreliability, consumption of spirit crystals, inability to communicate with each other, no development potential, the more you buy, the more you use it, the more you will benefit .Ahem, at least, it has the most basic functions of the moon boots, giving others the possibility to make up for their shortcomings.

Consumables?Then it’s enough to replenish regularly. A lack of certain abilities on the battlefield may be the difference between life and death. In the combat system built by many people, there will be room for artificial spirit weapons.

Can't the artificial spirit blade keep up with the growth?With the growth of oneself and the spirit blade, it is enough to gradually eliminate them.

More importantly, there are still some abilities that you may never develop in your life, but sometimes, it is quite uncomfortable to lack such a piece.

What Zheng Li knew was that a title hunter of Yu Ying's level also had a high-quality man-made spirit weapon in his backpack to make up for his obvious long-range disadvantage and avoid being harassed and attacked by flying monsters.

Artificial psionic firearms have always been the best-selling type of artificial spiritual weapons for military use, and all major manufacturers have their own famous brands.

The second place is all kinds of transportation. The difficulty of handling large vehicles has brought a large amount of rigid demand, but they are also super expensive.

And some professions and specialization types are even big consumers of artificial spiritual weapons. For example, Zheng Li saw that shield guard yesterday.

They can choose a variety of spiritual energy shields, defensive facilities, and temporary positions according to the situation and needs, but most of them are consumables. It is really a job that rich people can afford.

"I'll go over there and have a look, and you can help me make up my mind later."

The rabbit hopped and ran away, overflowing with joy and joy. It seemed that her natural shopping desire had been activated.

In fact, these gadgets should be self-prepared, and they are part of a sword master’s combat power. The battle group will not purchase consumables of this level for a certain member (whether you survive, whether you can complete the task, it is up to you own business.)
Therefore, Zheng Li, who is bleeding profusely with the rabbit to go shopping, is not using the identity of the group leader and group member.

"Oh, brothers and sisters?"

At this time, Zheng Li suddenly realized that after some irreversible things happened, he seemed to be alone again, and this rabbit had actually become his closest person.

"It's really a headache. Give her more training when you get back, little junior sister, this is the love of senior brother for you."

After thinking for a while, Zheng Li also walked to the next corner without hesitation. He also needs to purchase man-made spiritual artifacts, and the demand and types are quite picky.
