Apocalypse: My Apartment Has Traits - Chapter 168 - 146: Wild Bird Flock (4K Merged)
Chapter 168: Chapter 146: Wild Bird Flock (4K Merged)
The piercing silver light pouring out from the window almost burned the eyes, blurring the vision, only barely outlining the hazy silhouette of a blueprint inside.
The brand new machine panel was cold and smooth, with the price clearly marked above the purchase button:
“Special offer 5 silver coins.”
Su Lin received a few coins handed over by his grandfather, the coins jingling as they rolled into the coin slot, and then pressed the purchase button.
The dazzling silver light quickly receded like a tide, and the blueprint on the shelf silently slid into the delivery outlet.
Su Can didn’t reach out, instead rubbed his hands, eagerly urging Su Lin:
“You take it!”
“…” Su Lin helplessly pursed his lips, was his luck really that superstitious?
He bent down and took the blueprint out of the cold delivery outlet, the lambskin paper feeling tough in his hand.
“How is it?” Su Can couldn’t wait, stretching his neck, looking like a goose waiting to be fed.
Su Lin looked down and carefully examined the contents of the blueprint, his expression instantly solidified, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
“Well, how is it?” The old man was anxious and grabbed his ears, wishing he could snatch it to see clearly.
Su Lin handed the blueprint over with a strange expression:
“It should… be quite good, right? This type of blueprint, I’ve never seen it before.”
“Never seen it?”
This answer further aroused Su Can’s curiosity, he snatched the blueprint, held it to his face, his eyes instantly widened.
“Special Mechanism Blueprint: Pressure Machine”
“Floor-mounted Deployment Mechanism”
“Build a pressure machine on the ground, all mechanical and physical damage-type mechanisms receive 20% power bonus.”
“There is no limit on the number of this mechanism, can be stacked.”
Su Can read word by word, his mouth slightly open, stunned as well.
“A special blueprint that enhances mechanism power?”
Su Lin asked:
“Grandpa, have you seen it?”
“Never heard of it!” Su Can shook his head repeatedly, full of novelty.
“How about it?”
At this moment, Su Qi arranged the perimeter alert, walked over, his gaze fell on the blueprint in the old man’s hand.
Su Can stuffed the blueprint to him:
“Have a look at this rare thing yourself.”
Su Qi quickly scanned the blueprint, a trace of surprise in his eyes:
“There is actually this kind of auxiliary mechanism? 20% power bonus, can also be stacked… the effect is indeed unique, but the downside is also obvious, it needs to occupy a valuable mechanism slot.”
No doubt, this is an extremely rare blueprint.
But the effect is rather subtle.
Is it worth using a mechanism slot to exchange for a 20% damage bonus for a specific type of mechanism?
Su Qi pondered for a moment, looked at Su Lin and said:
“Linzi, do you need this blueprint?”
“I can’t use it.” Su Lin shook his head decisively, “My Giant Beast-Hunting Bee is a summoned creature, not a mechanical type, the pressure machine is ineffective on it. Moreover…”
He paused, said:
“Compared to the improvement brought by entries, specially clearing a slot to install a pressure machine seems a bit wasteful to me at the moment.”
His current Arrow Wall, Earth Spike, and Wooden Hammer can benefit, but one mechanism slot only for a 20% power boost, the gains diminish with entry support, he prefers to install direct attack or control mechanisms.
Su Qi put away the blueprint:
“Understood. Then let’s store it in the old house’s warehouse for now.”
He’s planning, when the old house upgrades to level five and mechanism slots are plentiful, he can make one or two to test its effect.”
On the perimeter, the Hunting Group and various village leaders stood solemnly and quietly waiting, not a sound.
In the dangerous place at this moment, all rely on the Su Family as a stabilizing force, naturally, they had no objection to the Su Family monopolizing the vending machine.
Survival in the end times, the biggest taboo is not knowing one’s place.
Such people died out early in the apocalypse, those still alive are from relatively good backgrounds.
Yet in these wilds, who can compare to the Su Family?
…
After a brief pause, the team set off again.
Around the abandoned high school forgotten by time, they proceeded along the gray-black rocky terrain, in front of them appeared a once bustling, now silent market ruin.
Thick gray fog flowed through the ruins, Su Lin’s sharp eyes pierced the thin mist, recognized a few peeled-off large characters on a rusty, shaky iron sign atop the market entrance:
“Donghui City”
It should have been “Donghui Market”, but the last “Market” character had long been missing, leaving a glaring void.
Just then, Su Can, always perceiving like radar, suddenly stopped, his deep and serious voice broke the silence:
“No choice but to face them, they’re here! Everyone, prepare for combat!”
His words had hardly fallen—
BOOM!!!
A deafening explosion erupted from the depths of the market!
Accompanied by a heart-pounding tremor and an earth-shaking stampede, a giant boar like a moving hill charged out furiously!
Behind it, the fog vigorously tossed, countless massive dark shadows surged like a breached black flood!
Ye Xin’an’s pupils shrank, swiftly drew the long saber from his back, the blade’s edge gleamed coldly in the gloom, shouted:
“Team one! Follow me—face the enemy!”
“Yes!” Team one’s members shouted together, instantly assuming combat stance.
Su Lin tightly gripped the two-meter bamboo pole blade, its blade a unique cold steel gleam in the gray mist.
He remembered the previous arrangements, stuck closely to Ye Xin’an, his eagle-like eyes scanning the frenziedly charging beast horde, while intently observing and learning Ye Xin’an’s command and coordination.
The roar of the beast horde converged into a deathly frenzy, insanely pouncing from all directions shrouded by mist.
