Chapter 606: Chapter 606 Engineering Drawings
Although Song Jian did not deliver the final blow to the Life Vine, in practice, the kill was credited to him. Therefore, when it died, the Life Vine also dropped an item.
It was a green long sword, its blade shimmering with a glaze-like glow. It looked more like a work of art than a weapon.
âVerdant Crystal Wood Sword (Gold), One-handed Sword, Equipment Effect: Attack 98-112, Poison Attack +3, Corrosion Damage +5, Life Recovery Speed +10%, Wood Attribute Damage +35, a certain chance to trigger double damage effect. Special Effect 1: Binding (Passive), this item absorbs the userâs blood for binding. Special Effect 2: Growth (Passive), this item is growth-type equipment, initial level 1, gains combat experience to level up in battles, the higher the level, the stronger the property of the item, item level cannot surpass the userâs level. Equipment requirement: Level 1; Set: 1/5. Can it be taken out of the game: No.â
âAnother set sword!â Song Jianâs eyes showed a surprised look, without hesitation he cut his own wrist, and dripped blood onto the green sword.
Like a sponge absorbing water, all the blood droplets on the sword were swallowed clean, without leaving a trace on the sword.
After losing more than a thousand Vitality Points, the Verdant Crystal Wood Sword turned into a green light and merged into the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword. With this, Song Jianâs damage had increased significantly.
All three swords were growth-type weapons. As Song Jian leveled up through fighting monsters, they could automatically absorb combat experience. Aside from the just-obtained Verdant Crystal Wood Sword, the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword had already reached level seven, and Golden Demonslaying Sword had upgraded to level four.
Even with Song Jianâs regular attacks, he could deal three times the damage, totaling over three hundred points. Normal level 20 players only have just over a thousand Vitality Points. Even when considering damage reduction from defenses, Song Jian could severely injure opponents with just one encounter. With the use of skills, he could take out an opponent with one move. Just thinking about it felt brutal.
Carefully examining it again, Song Jian found no other discoveries and walked out of Lab Zero, heading towards the other labs.
Lab One, Lab Two, Lab Threeâ¦
Song Jian continued to search for supplies in the lab, finding three standard laser guns and some valuable materials needed for engineering studies. However, he still didnât have a good plan to kill the Corrupted Puppet Beast.
âIf all else fails, Iâll just have to brute force it to death!â Song Jian thought to himself.
The Corrupted Puppet Beast is formidable with a wide range of attacks. Itâs restrained from moving, but its strong attacks and first-order combat power make it challenging for Song Jian to fight against it. If he couldnât take advantage of its immobility, the battle would be no different from fighting with a first-order BOSS.
If he did that, Song Jian would be at a great disadvantage. The BOSS might not be killed, but Song Jian himself might.
The diary only recorded the locations of Lab Zero and six other labs. If he continued to search, time would be of the essence. When Song Jian searched to the fifth lab, he saw a blueprint emitting a pale white light on an experimental platform.
âSchematic: crude magic cannon, requires level 6 engineering to learn. Instruction: teaches you how to craft a crude magic cannon.
Crude Magic Cannon, a defensive artillery, can only be constructed in a fixed location, it is immovable once built.
Every 10 seconds it automatically generates a magic crystal shell, cannon range 500 meters, splash damage 680-980, with a certain chance to trigger a knockback effect.
Crafting requirement: Rosan Wood (3), Magic Crystal Energy Core (2), Hardened Gold Fine Pipe (2), Mystic Steel Stabilizer (3).â
Upon seeing this blueprint, Song Jianâs eyes lit up. Wasnât this the perfect weapon for a long-range attack against the immobilized Corrupted Puppet Beast?
Because of his profession, Song Jianâs damage would be weakened when using any weapon other than a sword. But this magic cannon isnât a weapon, itâs defensive artillery that should be built on city walls and is immovable once constructed.
But for the immobile Corrupted Puppet Beast, this magic cannon is its nemesis.
âEngineering requires level six, and Iâm now only level five. However, the proficiency is high enough. If I fabricate these parts, Iâll probably be able to level up to six. As for the materials, Iâve already searched enough from the previous labs.â A smile appeared on Song Jianâs face.
Deciding to do it, Song Jian started to work. The lab was equipped with a testing table and tools. Before long, Song Jian had a pile of components glowing with white light in front of him.
A white light flashed, and Song Jianâs engineering level increased to six. He immediately learned the âcrude magic cannonâ blueprint. Song Jian collected the components and quickly made his way to the vault where the Corrupted Puppet Beast was being held.
âAnna must be getting anxious waiting outside the base, I need to speed up!â Song Jian thought.
By this time, Anna had been waiting under the floating base for over two hours. Not knowing how Song Jian was doing, Anna was very anxious. Suddenly, she sensed three powerful life energies rushing towards her.
âWho is it?â Anna was alert and quickly hid in the shadows behind a rock. Before long, the three Hawk Brothers headed straight for the floating base.
âIs it, is it a Godâs Chosen? How is that possible, why would there be other Godâs Chosen here?â A look of surprise appeared on Annaâs face.
Anna understood the rules of the secret realm better than anyone. She had never seen others being able to invade someone elseâs secret realm before.
âThis is not a public secret realm, how could this happenâ¦â Anna frowned.
âBig Brother, the item to open the floating base must be nearby, should we search for it?â Hawk Fei looked at the looming floating base above their heads and asked.
âNo need, the person who wanted to enter this secret realm must have already entered the floating base. We donât have time to waste.â Hawk Yang looked solemn, took a palm-sized bomb from their package and handed it to Hawk Fei, âGo, blow up an entrance.â
Hawk Fei nodded, took the bomb, and with a thought, a pair of bat-like wings appeared on his back, and he soared into the sky.
Bang!
A loud explosion sounded, thick smoke billowing out. The entire floating base slightly shook, and a hole with a diameter of over three meters appeared on the floating base.
Soon, a rope fell from the hole. Hawk Yang and Hawk Ji both used both hands alternately to climb up the rope and quickly disappeared into the hole.
