Chapter 41, Continuous Weapon Star Upgrades
Furthermore, her boyfriend, being a top special forces soldier, possesses interrogation skills far superior to hers, making him a more suitable candidate for this task.
As expected, less than an hour later, Li Hanmo returned with the barely alive Wang Juan, along with a train ticket.
Zhong Bingxuan took the ticket and glanced at it. It was a VIP ticket for an hour later, half an hour later than her ticket.
Although they weren't on the same train, at least they already had tickets. The ticket required successfully killing a major anomaly, which was already accomplished when Li Hanmo and Zhong Bingxuan successfully killed Wang Boyang, so there was no need to do any other tasks.
Fu Yucheng and Zhong Linlin hadn't returned yet, which worried Zhong Bingxuan. However, time was running out, and she had to get to the boarding point early to avoid any unexpected situations or being unable to board the train.
"Hanmo, I'll go first. If you happen to run into Linlin and the others, remember to have them let me know you're safe once you get in the car."
Filled with worry, Zhong Bingxuan headed to the main gate of the Wang residence, a place the players had never been before.
The mission area is within the Wang Mansion; no player would leave through the main gate unless they were looking to die.
Zhong Bingxuan's boarding point was set up right at the main gate of the Wang family mansion. This time, the Wang family's powerful and cunning forces had been completely exhausted, and there were not many ghost servants left. Without any accidents, she boarded the vehicle smoothly.
[Welcome home, first-class passenger Zhong Bingxuan! Enjoy your time. Your next destination is in three days.]
Zhong Bingxuan was the only one in the first-class cabin this time. The empty compartment was devoid of familiar faces, and a sense of emptiness and loneliness suddenly overwhelmed her.
"Never mind all that, I believe my friends will survive. Let me take a shower to relax first, and then treat myself to a lavish meal."
That's the good thing about first class – you don't have to pay for food, drinks, or other necessities.
Zhong Bingxuan thoroughly enjoyed herself, and only an hour later did she have time to sit on the sofa and review her gains from this dungeon run.
——Property Panel
Name: Zhong Bingxuan
Lifespan: 3430 days
Points: 30090
Occupation: None
[Skills: Dangerous Prediction, Death Reload]
Guild: None
[Team: Rain or Shine]
——Property Panel
[Strength: ??? (Born with superhuman strength, grows stronger when facing stronger opponents.)]
Agility: 30008 (A lightning-fast existence)
[Charm: 999 (A peerless beauty, with features as exquisite as a painting.)]
[Spirit: 6 (General level of old humans, mediocre level of new humans.)]
[Luck: 5 (Neither good nor bad among the old humans, but unlucky and strange among the new humans.)]
[Physical Constitution: 30010 (An unkillable cockroach.)]
[Endurance: 53 (The pain of death will make you stronger, young man, bravely die!)]
[Stamina: 240100 (Take a bath to relax and restore stamina)]
[Mana: 50/304100 (A dangerous prophecy deducts 20 points each time; death requires reloading the save, so your patience is key.)]
[Fullness: 88/100 (You're full and satisfied; now you can consider getting down to business.)]
Don't be fooled by the large amount of health points gained this time. In reality, the life points consumed by the artifact are too high, especially in the final battle. I used up hundreds of thousands of life points by myself, and I didn't even have any teammates to share them with. Otherwise, I would have just died on the spot.
It seems that it's best to avoid using supernatural weapons if possible. While spiritual weapons deal less damage to supernatural beings, at least they don't consume as much health. If possible, just use spiritual weapons directly and upgrade your weapon level; maybe then the spiritual weapon will be able to play its role.
The points reward this time wasn't much, but the attribute values increased significantly.
This situation is actually quite common on trains. Fu Yuchen once mentioned that the rewards for the "Faceless Clay Figure" instance were quite good.
The three members of the team need to accumulate points according to the dungeon before they can strengthen themselves.
For unlucky players, after several games, they might not even be able to improve any of their abilities.
Zhong Bingxuan's own points are only 30090. After deducting the necessary 20,000 points from the system blocker, she only has 10090 left.
Upgrading skills requires 1,000 points, and upgrading three-star and four-star weapons requires a total of 6,000 points, leaving 3,000 points remaining.
This dungeon used up a lot of blue potions, and the Zhong Bingxuan alarm kept going off. To ensure my safety, I gulped down the blue potions like water. I also need to buy more blue potions.
One set of small blue bottles costs 100 points, and ten bottles make a set. Zhong Bingxuan doesn't have many points, so she can only buy thirty sets. Hopefully, the next dungeon will consume less mana, otherwise she won't have enough even if she spends them all.
[Ding dong, congratulations to player Zhong Bingxuan for upgrading the Death Reload talent skill.]
[Death Reload 2-Star: Reloads the save upon death, returning to the past. The first time is painless, the pain doubles with each subsequent death, and the rewind time slowly moves forward.]
[Congratulations to player Zhong Bingxuan for continuously upgrading her weapon's star rating. The weapon is currently equipped at four stars, unlocking its third effect.]
After the death save upgrade, it didn't bring Zhong Bingxuan many benefits. It only exempted her from pain for the first time, which disappointed her. She thought it would be like the Danger Prophecy, with an extra special effect that would provide more powerful assistance for the next dungeon. But just the exemption from pain was too useless.
I wonder if the special effects that appear after a weapon is upgraded twice are as useless as reloading after death.
Zhong Bingxuan's weapon description:
【Name: Double Transparent Darts】
[Type: Ghostly Artifact/Spiritual Artifact]
[Quality: Top-tier 4-star (Upgradeable)]
[Effect 1: Can attack enemies, increasing damage by 130%.]
[Effect 2: Activates the attributes of the Ghostly Weapons: Nine Nether Ice Transparent Dart Ghostly Weapon, which can control enemies for three seconds; and Heavenly Wing Blazing Transparent Dart Spiritual Weapon, which can increase weapon attack power by 100%.]
[Effect 3: Nine Nether Ice Transparent Darts add the effect of freezing thousands of miles and hard-controlling enemies for ten seconds; Heavenly Wing Blazing Transparent Darts add the effect of scorching sun and increase damage by 200%.]
It's not too bad; the weapon has two more active skills, which greatly improves its combat power.
All the points earned from this dungeon run have been used up, so there's nothing else to do but conserve my energy and wait for the next dungeon to open.
During this time, Zhong Bingxuan received updates from her friends, informing them that they were safe and sound, as well as the opening time of their respective next stops. Even though the opening times of their next stops were different and the chances of them meeting were extremely low, she was not upset at all.
As long as everyone is still alive and well, we will meet again sooner or later.
Fu Yucheng is an experienced player, and if Linlin stays with him, her chances of survival will be better.
Speaking of the last time the two of them searched for train tickets in the Ghost House instance, the reason they didn't get back before Zhong Bingxuan left was because the dancer was lucky enough to dodge Wang Boyang's killing move and wasn't completely dead.
To ensure his plan wouldn't go awry, Wang Boyang killed the dancer. However, the players outside distracted him, so he didn't finish her off. This allowed the dancer to use her talent to deceive Wang Boyang and become the last surviving master of the Wang family mansion.
If Fu Yucheng and Zhong Linlin hadn't arrived in time, Zhong Bingxuan's team would have faced another major battle once the dancer recovered.
By then, everyone will be in danger. They'll have used up most of their supplies. If another major battle were to break out, even one as intense as the one Wang Boyang fought, there's no guarantee the team would survive.
