From the wasteland comics to the real world

Chapter 42 Hunting the Scythe Antlion IV

In the next few days, Li Yue lived in the same way.

Before dawn, I went out to hunt, and rushed back to the research institute after eight o'clock. I first did the tasks given above, and then I fumbled to make a Level III long sword.

Get off work early in the evening and drive to Black Beetle Company to sell the harvest of the day to the other party.

When I got home, I habitually listened to his brother and sister quarreling.

Then, the quarrel was subdued in a fucking growl, and soon died down.

Finally, eat dinner, read a book, and sleep.

The days went on step by step like this, the experience of that day seemed to be a fantasy dream, neither the strange babbling nor the "traversal" appeared again, and there was no news about that gang of robbers.

But Li Yue knew that it was not an illusion, because his life had indeed undergone tremendous changes.

You know what is one of the most painful things for a human being?

I can't live the way I want.

This kind of feeling that you already know what kind of life you want, but God has crossed you from the very beginning is really painful.

You don't even have the chance to work hard, any hard work is futile, and the life path you yearn for is a dead end from the beginning.

This kind of pain is not so severe, but it is long and hidden, gnawing at your soul all the time.

Li Yue was like this before, depressed, depressed, but powerless.

But since that day, everything has changed.

Just like the sunshine dispelling the perennial haze, he finally saw the distant and brilliant future.

Because of this, he has an unprecedented enthusiasm for life, and he seems to have endless energy every day.

Driven by such drive, his strength also increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Of course, not as fast as the first day.

Because in the next ten days or so, his luck was not as good as on the first day, and he never hunted any level IV monsters, and even very few level III monsters.

It took a few days to barely raise Ⅲ-0512 Firescale Thorn by 2 levels. As for Ⅶ-033 Precognition?It's a lot closer to upgrading, but it's still a lot worse.

In addition, there are not many Transcendent Magic Crystals dropped, only three of them, two of which are Level I, and only one is Level II. I can see it well.

The harvest of more than ten days is not as much as the first day, mainly because Li Yue's hunting is not without cost, not to mention the gas money, this is a decimal, and the magic beast distributed to the employees of his sister's company Although there are some processing fees, they are not too much.

The real big problem is the cost of bullets. Level IV bullets are not cheap, and one will cost thousands. Even if you want to kill a level III monster, you have to fire at least a few shots. If you are unlucky, you may need to fire more than a dozen shots. One thousand, can this cost not be high?
This is just the most basic level IV bullet, if it is a special bullet, the price will only be higher.

For example, when he hunted the giant scythe antlion that day, he used level IV armor-piercing ammunition, a [-] round, directly doubled, and that day in order to kill the giant scythe antlion, he fired at least [-] shots.

Of course, in general, it is still profitable.

In addition, his brother broke up with that beautiful widow named Angelina. I don't know what Li Musheng said. A few days ago, the other party said, "If you dare to break up with me, I will let you die." look like.

It's only been a few days, and they broke up so quietly and without waves.

This might be unbelievable to someone else, but Li Yue has seen many similar situations, and his brother is really good at coaxing women.

Many times he felt that the two sides had completely broken up, but in a blink of an eye Li Musheng coaxed people back together.

He couldn't understand it, but he was shocked.

That evening, when Li Yuekui walked to the door of his house, he met Li Mei and Bader.

Their place is considered a high-end residential area. There are many rich and powerful people living in this area. As the future owner of the castle, Badr will of course also live in this area.

Of course, Sand Iron Castle is very concerned about the equalization of wealth, so even if it is a high-end residential area, compared with ordinary residential areas, the gap is not exaggerated.

Li Mei was asking Baldr about the whereabouts of the gang of robbers. More than ten days have passed, and Shatiebao still failed to catch them.

Badr hesitated for a moment, and said solemnly to Li Yue and Li Mei: "We still haven't been able to find them, it's a bit weird, the remaining few robbers seem to have disappeared out of thin air, and they haven't been revealed since. over the trail."

Li Yue was a researcher before, so he was not sensitive to such things, but Li Mei's combat experience was much richer, so she couldn't help but frowned upon hearing this.

In fact, she came to Badr today because more than ten days had passed and she hadn't caught him yet, which was a little abnormal.

Although the leader of the desolate bandits is a V-level transcendent, he is not considered strong among V-level transcendents. Otherwise, she would not be able to hold him back for so long.But Captain John is the strongest of the V-level superhumans, and he is also a master of tracking. It is really unusual that he hasn't caught anyone for so long.

"So the fort suspects that the strength of this wild bandit may be very unusual. Now the fort has strengthened its vigilance, but only a few people know about it for the time being. I want to remind you that I will go out more often in the future. Be careful."

Bader continued.

Now, Li Yue's expression also became serious, and he smelled a hint of danger.

At this time Bader suddenly turned the topic to Li Yue.

"I heard that you hunted a scythe antlion before? The guards need to thank you for this."

The guards usually have the duty of clearing the threatening monsters near Sand Iron Castle, and the scythe antlion is extremely harmful, and belongs to the first echelon of monsters that the guards must clear.

The place where Li Yue killed the giant scythe ant lion was not far from Sand Iron Fort. If Li Yue hadn't killed it in advance, it might have posed a huge threat to the lives and property of the people of Sand Iron Castle.

At this point, the guards did accept Li Yue's affection.

"I see that although your shooting talent is very good, it seems that you haven't shot a gun before? If you practice for a while, your shooting level will be greatly improved. Do you want to come to the guard's shooting range to practice shooting?"

Baldr said again.

Li Yue's heart skipped a beat.He knows his own affairs. Although he is assisted by VII-033’s super intuition, he has never even touched a gun before, and the awakened ability is not to improve the level of firearms. The real shooting level is actually very good. vegetable.

In fact, he wanted to improve his shooting ability early on, because once his real shooting ability improved, and he used "Calling from the Far Mountain", the threat would definitely increase accordingly.

But in the entire Sand Iron Fort, only the guards have a shooting range where extraordinary people can practice shooting, so he has never had a chance.

"Li Mei, if you want to practice, you can also come over."

Badr then said to Li Mei seemingly unintentionally.

"I still need to practice my shooting skills? What a joke!"

Li Mei sneered, stunned Bader for a moment, and became a little at a loss.

What she said was true. Although he didn't master the shooting ability, he had already practiced a set of perfect marksmanship in actual combat, and he really didn't need to train again.

But sister, you can't get married like this.Li Yue held his forehead in his heart.

Baldr left quickly.

"Is your injury almost healed?"

Li Yue asked.

"It's already done, remember to get up early tomorrow morning, and I will take you to pick up the good thing."

Li Yue's heart moved slightly. In fact, he had been thinking about this matter all the time. Things that could be called good things by his sister would definitely not be bad. It's just that his sister was not in good health at that time, so he couldn't rush her.
