Fatal Shot

Upon hearing the words of the Light Armor Warrior, the Scout player’s initially unhappy tone seemed a little more suppressed. However, with some impatience, he said, “Friend, since you know a way to get up here, why don’t you hurry up and tell us?”

“Before that giant Octopus Commander starts attacking us, it’s better if we get out of here. With your eyesight, you should know that it will be difficult for us to fight against it from here. It’ll probably be fraught with grim possibilities!”

“Oh?” said Feng Luo. After that, he turned around to finally look at the four players from an unknown guild. “I have a way to come up here. That is certainly correct. But even if I tell you how, you won’t be able to get down with the same method, so why do I have to tell you about it?”

“How do you know we won’t be able to do it? Perhaps we can!”

Feng Luo’s provocation undoubtedly ticked off the Scout player, so, with a satisfied expression, he said, “I came from that position. Since you believe you are capable enough, try and go down from there by yourself then!”

Feng Luo used his head and eyes to indicate the edge of the platform with a cruel and playful smile. With his vision, how could he have overlooked the visible irritation of the Scout player? However, he had encountered people this the Scout way too many times in this game. Plus, it wasn’t like he knew about the Scout’s earlier actions, so he wasn’t entirely cold to him. Still, Feng Luo would never give too much face to people like him!

However, after the four players heard about the location Feng Luo had used, they didn’t care about his expression anymore. Instead, they quickly looked over. In the end, however, they found out that it was only another dining platform!

“Are you messing with me?” said the Scout player, finally showing signs of anger.

The platform was around 20 meters away from the current platform in terms of height and around 10 meters away in terms of horizontal distance. Even a Light Armor Warrior using the Thunder Leap Slash skill or any other rare skills wouldn’t have been able to get up from that platform! Similarly, a low-HP Scout like him would never be able to get down there from their current position. If he attempted the jump, he would only be seeking death!

Feng Luo continued to ignore the Scout and spoke to My World and Steel Fortress. “That means your equipment is also damaged? All right. We’re definitely going to have to keep fighting later. I’ll lend you the equipment set I’m wearing now. Return it to me after we return to the city!”

As he spoke, he pressed a button on his personal terminal.

Ka!

After that, the alloy armor equipped on his body started to separate under the control of the intelligent terminal, turning into multiple parts separated from his body. After that, Feng Luo placed these items in front of My World and Steel Fortress!

Although Light Armor Warriors couldn’t maximize the effects of heavy armor, Heavy Armor Warriors could equip light armor. This was a unique trait of the Heavy Armor Warrior profession. As such, Feng Luo’s set of equipment was definitely enough to support both of them.

However, the Light Armor Warrior who had been staring at Feng Luo with admiration and shock from the Scout’s party couldn’t help but speak up. “Your equipment must be worth over five million credits, and you’re lending it to them, just like that?”

“Worth over five million credits?”

The other three players, as well as My World’s four party members, were stunned after hearing that!

Even Skynet and Ultimate Heavy Armor, who had decent gear, looked surprised. When they’d first met Feng Luo, he had only been carrying around an Excellent-grade M10, and the second time they’d met each other on Silver Leaf island, he had merely modified M10 with parts of the Eye of the Thunder. Now, after just two or three months, Feng Luo’s gear was worth more than five million!

“Really? Five million credits?”

“It looks like it’s real. His chest plate, helmet, and other parts look like items from the Thunder equipment set. I remember the Thunder equipment set was very popular around half a month ago. One of those was sold at 3.5 million credits in Huan Yu company’s auction, which sold the first-ever Legendary-grade equipment in the game. I’m not going to even speculate on the other stuff.”

“F*ck! 3.5 million? All my items combined are just around 30,000 to 50,000 credits, and just five of his items are worth more than 10 times the value of all of my assets!”

The eyes of the three players were nearly glowing. They stared at the items Feng Luo was passing to My World and Steel Fortress like degenerates staring at hotties!

However, upon hearing the words of the Light Armor Warrior, My World and Steel Fortress hesitated.

“Brother Feng, if you’re lending us your stuff, what are you going to wear?”

They were quite surprised that Feng Luo would lend them such expensive equipment! Although the game had a rule that “borrowed” equipment couldn’t be sold by the borrower, if the borrower died, it was still possible for the item to be dropped! So if an item dropped, there was no way they would be able to make it up to Feng Luo, even with all of their items combined.

Still, it would have been a lie to say that they weren’t tempted to try on the amazing items that Feng Luo had handed over to them!

After all, no matter what kind of players they were, they would have spent some time walking around the commercial districts, seeing the top equipment listed in shopping catalogs, imagining how they would look in top-of-the-line gear!

It was especially true for more common players like the two of them. They would have envisioned themselves in those sorts of scenarios more than once. However, their self-control prevented themselves from acting on their impulses! Apart from that, they were also quite curious about Feng Luo wearing a set of Light Armor Warrior’s equipment instead of a Sniper; however, they didn’t ask him directly.

Now that they heard that Feng Luo was lending them the Light Armor Warrior’s equipment set, which cost more than five million credits, they suddenly felt as if they understood the reason.

War didn’t have any hard and fast rules on wearing different types of equipment. Theoretically, a Sniper wearing light armor would also experience a significant rise in defense and HP. And the reason that these items were so expensive was that they had amazing stats and were definitely a lot better than normal Gunner equipment.

As such, they came to the realization that the reason Feng Luo wore the armor was because the armor had incredible stats and attributes, and compared to wearing normal Gunner gear, he experienced a significant increase in his combat strength when wearing light armor, which was why he had ditched the combat uniform for the light armor!

As they faced the situation before them, both of them felt dizzy and forgot one important thing. Although the defensive equipment of Warriors was more expensive due to having more parts, every profession had their own top-class gear, and the price difference between the top-class items wasn’t all that different!

Since Feng Luo could wear a light armor set that cost five million credits, he could most definitely also wear a top-notch Gunner set that cost five million credits. Gunner gear in the same price range also had the profession bonus, making it much better than cross-profession gear.

Feng Luo’s reason for wearing the light armor wasn’t so simple. However, it didn’t cross anyone’s mind that it was because of a “hidden profession.”
