Fatal Shot - Chapter 289

Chapter 289: The Force and Legendary Equipment!

Feng Luo followed Haruko’s instructions and clicked on the button.

 In the next moment, his surroundings turned into a bunch of armors, weapons, and potions floating and rotating in mid-air.

 When Feng Luo’s gaze rested on an item, a detailed explanation of the item and its attributes automatically appeared.

 “Rare equipment. B-grade Special Ammunition. Boss Energy Core Crystal. Enhancement Potion…”

 At the same time, on top of every item was its cost in SAP or other points!

 [Shield-breaking Energy Bullet Type-two], B-grade Ammunition. Points Required: 20/round!

 [Night Eagle Tactical Glasses Type-five]. Grade: Rare (Excellent Evaluation). Required Level: 45. Points Required: 500!

 …

 Feng Luo noticed that the items that were closest to him were gear and special bullets that he already possessed.

 However, the items floating around him had a higher grade!

 For example, the C-grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet had become increasingly common after the system update, and its price had gone downhill. However, the B-grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet was much rarer.

 After that, Feng Luo’s gaze rested on a dark gray sniper rifle with a murderous style that he was incredibly familiar with.

 [Python of Death]. Grade: Rare (Perfect Evaluation). Exchange Requirements: 1,000 points, One D-rank authorization!

 A perfect Barrett that only cost 1,000 points. Feng Luo was a bit shocked. It doesn’t look expensive at all!

 It was certainly not expensive. After all, he had obtained 2,700 points in this mission alone. If he used his Merit Points to exchange for SAP, he would have more than 5,000 points.

 Anyone would be tempted to buy a perfect Barrett for just 1,000 points!

 However, Feng Luo noticed that apart in addition to points, there was another requirement for buying the rifle: D-rank Authorization!

 So what does that mean?

 At that moment, Haruko’s voice reached his ears.

 “Some special equipment and tools require a certain rank authorization for purchase.”

 “Authorization can be obtained through missions assigned by the bureau. Apart from that, every federation agent will automatically obtain a monthly authorization reward according to his or her own rank.”

 “Additionally, as the first group of adventurers who passed the examination, all of you will be granted two D-rank authorizations immediately.”

 So that’s what it is… As expected, the system would never allow players to obtain such valuable gear and tools freely!

 Feng Luo understood the reasoning.

 “However, with two D-rank authorizations as rewards, at least the system isn’t too stingy. Since I have two, I should have no problem getting myself a Barrett!”

 Feng Luo’s gaze once again rested on the rifle.

 The attributes of the perfect Barrett were a lot better than the “standard” Barrett that Feng Luo had. Added to that, it would only cost one-fifth of Feng Luo’s Merit Points if he exchanged them for SAP.

 “Then I want to exchange Python of…”

 Hey, hold on a minute!

 Since they have a Perfect Barrett here, might they have an even better sniper rifle?

 Feng Luo had been completely mesmerized by the Barrett with the Perfect Evaluation earlier, and so he had failed to properly search through the available rifles.

 The Barrett was one of the best sniper rifles below Level 50, and even some of the current Level 50 sniper rifles weren’t that much stronger than it. Furthermore, its unique style made it a popular choice among snipers in auctions.

 However, in the exchange warehouse of the Federation’s special bureau, would it be possible for much stronger weapons to exist?

 “Switch to sniper rifles and parts!” Feng Luo issued a command.

 The surrounding equipment and tools immediately vanished. In their place were all kinds of sniper rifle parts as well as sniper rifles of various models.

 After he cycled through the rifles for a moment, a pitch-black sniper rifle gun barrel with red dragon carvings on its surface appeared in front of him. It was so dark that it seemed to absorb light.

 The attributes of the gun barrel were stunning.

 [T-rex Gun Barrel (Sniper rifle parts)]. Grade: Legendary (Perfect Evaluation). Exchange Requirement: 2,000 points; One C-rank Authorization.

 “Legendary!”

 When Feng Luo saw the word “Legendary” written in the attributes of the gun barrel, his heart skipped a beat.

 A Legendary Grade weapon!

 Before the game update, there was already chatter about the appearance of gear above the Rare Grade called “Legendary” items. Some claimed that the news came from NPCs, but most people disregarded the information.

 A month after the update, no one had yet seen, much less obtained, an item above the Rare Grade. As such, no one knew for sure what the higher-graded items in War were called, much less the uniqueness of their attributes. It was still a mystery!

 And now, in the exchange system of the Federation’s special agent bureau, a piece of “Legendary” Grade equipment had actually appeared. It surprised Feng Luo and delighted him at the same time.

 After that, he quickly reviewed its information.

 T-Rex (Sniper rifle gun barrel)

 Grade: Legendary

 Maximum Shooting Range +30%

 Shooting Sound -50%

 Force +50

 Unique Attributes: Destructiveness of Ammunition +5%

 Attached Skill: Wrath of the T-rex (Activated with at least three T-rex sniper rifle parts. Minimum Force Consumption: 100)

 Level Requirement: 50

 Overall Evaluation: Perfect

 A skill! Feng Luo’s attention was completely focused on the last attribute!

 Apparently, the difference between normal and Legendary equipment was that Legendary equipment had skills!

 An upgrade like this was similar to going from Excellent to Rare; it was a ridiculous leap!

 Moreover, Force +50… Force? What is this stat?

 Could it be… Feng Luo remembered the strength from the three NPC instructors he had seen earlier through the Scout Beetle. Could that have been a display of “Force”?

 Hold on, why does it seem like I’ve heard this term before…?

 Feng Luo’s mind raced quickly, and before long, memories of some of the movies he had watched came back to him.

 The Force. Isn’t that the superpower used by the Jedi and the Sith in the Star Wars movies?

 COMMENT

In the Star Wars universe, the Force was a sort of extraordinary and mysterious power that existed everywhere. It was an energy field that surrounded all lifeforms and existed throughout the galaxy!

 And people who were blessed with the Force were like the mutants in X-men, possessing all kinds of amazing abilities!

 For example, telekinesis, telepathy, Force Lightning, etc.

 Moreover, the basic function of the Force was to greatly strengthen the body, to the point where one could even block the attacks of laser weapons!

 Clearly, the amazing strength of the three NPC instructors was due to the Force they possessed.

 Apart from that, there might also be another factor: the weapons they held. For example, Haruko’s samurai sword, Hunting Tiger’s shield, and Nightingale’s submachine gun were all Legendary Grade weapons!
