Chapter 291 - Prize: Legendary Equipment!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Miss Haruko, we understand your explanation of the Force. However, could you explain more about the connection between Legendary equipment and the Force?”

Just then, Digital Cat suddenly interrupted.

“What connection?”

Haruko turned back and glanced at Digital Cat with its eyes sparkling.

“I have already explained that the Force has two parts: Life Force and Universe Force! Life Force is only possessed by living beings, so each individual energy field doesn’t extend very far. Universe Force, however, is found in every corner of the universe, and its total energy is much greater than that of Life Force!”

“Hence, if Universe Force could be made use of, a great power could be unleashed, possibly even surpassing the greatest weapon already possessed by humans!”

“Therefore, in the era of the Galaxy Empire, there were countless experimental organizations researching the subject. They ultimately invented a tool capable of using Universe Force: Legendary-Grade equipment!”

Haruko’s eyes were deep.

“However, this type of equipment has a restriction. To mobilize Universe Force, it requires Life Force as ‘fuel’; those with no Life Force can’t unleash its true potential! Only those who possess Life Force can activate the skill enhancements of Legendary equipment!”

Feng Luo had already guessed some of this.

“Thus, for those who have not acquired the use of Force, Legendary equipment is only half as useful. But even without the skill enhancements, it still surpasses Rare equipment just by its standard attributes!”

Feng Luo recalled the “T-rex Gun Barrel” which he had seen before—its attributes were definitely stronger than the Eye of the Thunder and Barrett!

“Alright, that’s all I will say regarding the Force. You all can continue browsing through the Equipment Exchange List.”

“Also, you won’t have to spend points on the second profession chip, the disguise chip, and the Agent Wristwatch. Once you’re back at the base, the Federal Investigation Bureau will grant a set to each agent newly enrolled into the department.”

“When I joined, it was just a default chip and the wristwatch. If higher-grade devices were needed, we had to spend our own points and use authorizations!” Haruko said wryly.

“Plus, regarding the second profession chip, you all can choose it here and then submit it. Once you’re back to the base, you all can immediately switch the temporary chip within your body!”

After Haruko had finished speaking, everyone was returned to the previous Exchange environment.

I’ll be able to save quite a few points if I don’t have to purchase the standard equipment. That means I’ll have enough points to buy some other things, Feng Luo thought, then looked up a search category using voice input once more.

“Sniper Special Skill Chip!”

The surrounding products changed, and semi-transparent Skill Chips levitated around him. Feng Luo glanced over the list and saw that there were at least 100 of them!

“Limitless Shooting, Insane Shooting, Eagle Eye...”

Feng Luo scanned quickly over the chips. There were Rare chips from Level 15 to Level 45, many of which he had never even seen before on the forum.

[Environment Simulation]

“Able to control body temperature, breathing, heart rate, and other biological processes and attributes through the Biochip, integrating well with the surrounding environment, unable to be discovered by average Scout skills. Automatic engagement-type skill, no cooldown.”

[“Warning: causes serious negative effects to the body if engaged continuously for a long period of time.”]

“Level Required: 45, Exchange Requirement: 1000 points, one D-Grade Authorization!”

Quickly, Feng Luo’s gaze landed on a Level 45 Rare Skill Chip.

“This skill solves a problem I’ve had for a while!”

There was joy in Feng Luo’s eyes.

After he killed a Rock Lizard Commander in the Withered Desert, he had obtained a Level 35 Rare skill called “Sneak Attack” that was very complementary to his talent. However, learning this skill would replace the Level 35 skill “Ambush,” which was very important to Snipers. It was very troubling.

But this “Environment Simulation” skill would make a perfect substitute for “Ambush,” and it would give him even better abilities! Although the description indicated side-effects, those shouldn’t bother him if he avoided engaging the skill for an extended period of time.

The description also indicated that this skill would be amazingly effective at close range. Almost miraculous!

Thus, even though it cost 1000 points and an Authorization, it was unquestionably a great deal!

Feng Luo then changed the search content to “Light Armored Warrior Chip.”

No mistake, he had already decided to choose Light Armored Warrior as his second profession.

This was definitely a complementary profession to the flaws of a Sniper!

...

Half an hour later, in a large-scale base located more than 1500 meters underground, a line of people walked down a high-tech passageway densely lined with automatic defense weapons. They followed Haruko and entered a hall filled with staff wearing technological suits.

“Now, you can follow the support staff who will change out your temporary Profession Chips and tools, then set up an agent identity file for each of you.”

“Since you are the first batch of Adventurer Agents, your agent serial code will be M-001 to M-005!”

“Also, during the process of setting up your files, you can all choose a permanent disguise identity and your own agent codename!”

“Permanent disguise identity?”

“Agent codename?”

Hearing this, the five players’ eyes lit up with interest.

“But, Mister Feng, let me first trouble you to come with me for a while!” Haruko said, turning to Feng Luo.

As the remaining four people looked on with envy, Feng Luo followed Haruko out of the room.

...

A minute later, in a spacious room with environment-simulation capability, Haruko glanced at Feng Luo as she typed some information into a semi-transparent screen.

“The Federal Government decided that the highest scorer on the exam would earn a special reward. Of course, Mister Feng, considering your performance, you certainly deserve to earn this present!”

Following Haruko’s words, the floor slowly opened, and a silver-colored metallic platform rose, bearing three items.

They were the main components of a black dragon-engraved sniper rifle, a set of handguns in a tactical belt of unknown material, and a reverse army knife with a black and red blade made of a matte material!

“Are these...?”

Feng Luo looked at the three pieces of equipment, his heart skipping a beat.

When his sight landed on the attributes of the equipment, his guess was confirmed.

“[T-Rex (Sniper Rifle Main Body)], Grade: Legendary. Included Skill: Wrath of the T-Rex. Overall Evaluation: Perfect!”

“[Thundersnake (Tactical Belt)], Grade: Legendary. Included Skill: Thundersnake Flurry Dance. Overall Evaluation: Standard!”

“[Ghost Weep (Army Knife)], Grade: Legendary. Included Skill: Ghost Power. Overall Evaluation: Excellent!”
