Chapter 417 A thrilling game!
During the match, Jiang Cheng hesitated again.
"How about...we try a different mode?"
"Change mode?"
The fat man was rubbing his wrist, as if he was a little unwilling.
"What mode?"
"Hive Defense."
Jiang Cheng said as he clicked on the introduction.
"A large ruined stronghold with tons of resources, monsters dropping materials, multiple waves of attacks, and even bosses!"
"Holy crap! That sounds exciting!"
Xiaolin instantly became alert.
"We have resources and a boss, all we have to do is defend! I think we can give it a try!"
"I saw it too!"
Ah Han's eyes also lit up:
"Some bosses require hot weapons, others require rune weapons... Does that mean I have to keep forging and upgrading them?"
"Orange, this is a big test for you!"
Jiang Cheng nodded:
"Yes. The gunsmith must be very busy in here!"
"How about we try it again?"
"Okay! That's it!"
The fat man slapped his thigh.
"The last game was all hard work, this one is going to be fun!"
Soon, several people confirmed it.
The game reloaded, and the screen emerged from the darkness, revealing a huge ruined building complex.
The surrounding area is filled with broken steel walls and there is a huge open platform in the center. The ground is littered with collapsed machinery and broken rune pillars, like a huge cemetery.
The system prompt sounds:
[Current Mode: Hive Defense]
[Please deploy defense equipment, collect resources, and forge weapons in the defense area]
[The enemy will attack in the first wave after 90 seconds]
【The longer you survive, the higher the points you get】
[Bosses will appear in certain waves and must be killed with specific weapons]
Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up.
"Okay! This is the mode I should come in."
Jiang Cheng immediately and skillfully unfolded the portable forge, and the light ring lit up with a buzzing sound.
Xiaolin also looked surprised.
"Damn, that's all synthetic materials over there, and ready-made motors!"
The fat man also started to act early.
"Hand in any materials you find immediately!"
"It seems that in this mode, you can redeem skins and titles by reaching certain points!"
"Let's work harder!"
The four of them worked together quickly and took advantage of the countdown to start collecting various materials.
Jiang Cheng's fingers moved quickly, pulling the materials into the forging column.
[Input materials: Rusted metal*3, battery core*1, energy tube*1, rune stone*2]
[Under Construction - Simple Rune Blaster]
A few seconds later, a rough-looking short-barreled gun appeared, with rune patterns all over the gun body.
"Ah Han! This is for you!"
Jiang Cheng threw it over.
Ah Han's eyes lit up after he caught it:
"Wow! This is so cool!!"
"I've been fighting for so long, and I haven't even touched a gun!"
The fat man is still urging,
"Orange, where's mine?"
The forge on Jiang Cheng's side was humming and the light was flickering.
"Don't worry, don't worry, everyone has it!"
[Forging Completed: Simple Throwing Thunder]
[Forging Completed: Explosion-Proof Mask]
[Forging Completed: Simple Rune Sniper Rifle]
“Oh my god!”
The fat man took the sniper rifle,
"This thing also has a charge-based headshot!"
"One grenade for each person!"
"The monster is coming!"
The prompt sounded:
[The first wave of enemies is coming soon - Rangers*20, Wanderers*30]
There was a heavy sound of footsteps coming from all directions, and dust was falling like an earthquake.
But this time, the four of them were no longer panicking.
“Here I come!”
Ah Han set up the impact gun,
"Let me test the waters first!"
Bang bang bang!
The rune blaster spewed out light blue energy, hitting the Ranger's chest and causing sparks to explode.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Electric, do you understand technology?"
"It feels so good! Much better than the previous mode!" Xiaolin shouted.
Jiang Cheng looked at the radar while forging:
[Input materials: Rune Stone Fragment*3, Battery Cell*2, Energy Conducting Wire*1]
[Under Construction - Rune Shield]
"Fatty, come here, take the shield!"
Jiang Cheng threw the blue light shield over.
After the fat man took it, his whole body lit up and he rushed to the front like a tank.
A few minutes later, the first wave of monsters were wiped out, leaving behind a large pile of materials and light spots on the ground.
"Hurry, hurry! Pick up the materials!"
Jiang Cheng shouted.
The three of them quickly picked up the strange things and threw them at Jiang Cheng's feet.
The forge hummed and the light flickered.
[Second wave of enemies: Rangers*50, Wanderers*50, Guerrilla Hounds*20]
Dense claw marks appeared on the ground, and several rune hounds with blue light all over their bodies pounced towards them at a rapid speed.
"I'll snipe first!"
The fat man fired a shot, and a beam of energy exploded with a "bang", and a rune hound was directly blown into a point of light.
Jiang Cheng was as busy as the owner of a two-dollar grocery store, and his eyes never left the forging panel.
The most talked about thing is
Give! Give! Give!
[Input Materials: Energy Capacitor*3, Heavy Alloy*3, Gear Fragment*3, Parts*3...]
[Under Construction - Heavy Gatling]
The forge flashed, and a heavy Gatling gun appeared in front of Jiang Cheng.
"Xiaolin! Let's do something violent!"
Jiang Cheng thrust the gun in his direction.
"Chengzi, if you ask me to do this, isn't it like Xie Baoqing attacking Pearl Harbor?"
"It's different now! Look at the new weapon I gave you!"
"With this diamond cutter, you can fight Sun Wukong for two rounds!"
Xiaolin took the Gatling gun, his eyes shining for a moment:
“Good fellow!”
"This is what we call a game!"
Da da da... The Gatling gun spewed out bursts of firepower, the Rune Hounds were swept to pieces, and the Rangers fell down in batches.
"How cool! Finally I'm not the one getting beaten!"
"After all, Baopilong is the one that suits my taste the most!"
Xiaolin laughed as he shot.
After a few waves, the score jumped to [23450].
Then, the difficulty gradually increased, and the wild monsters that came kept changing.
The "optical decoy" that can turn invisible has appeared.
There are also "high-frequency beam monsters" that can snipe from a distance.
There are even "guard puppets" with shields.
But the weapons forged by Jiang Cheng are also being updated.
"This is really good. I feel like one of those synth warriors in the anime now."
At the tenth wave, a new enemy appears:
[Alert! Boss is about to appear!]
[Enemy Unit: Iron Crusher]
[Features: Immune to thermal weapons, requires cold weapons or rune weapons to break defense]
Heavy footsteps were heard from the depths, and a ten-meter-tall iron-boned monster stepped out, dragging a huge chainsaw in its hand.
It is covered with rune armor, and hot weapons hitting it will only produce sparks.
The whole audience fell silent.
"The boss is coming!"
Xiaolin aimed a burst of bullets and hit the Boss on the body like a tickle, it didn't hurt at all!
"Brother Cheng! It's immune to thermal weapons!"
"Okay, I understand!"
“Here are all my recipes!”
Jiang Cheng immediately changed the formula and threw in a bunch of rune stones, ancient talisman paper, and capacitors.
The forge spewed fire and iron pieces flew everywhere.
[Forging: Rune-Splitting Spear]
[Forging: Rune Railgun]
The boss roared, raised his chainsaw and swung it wildly, but was blocked by the fat man with his shield.
"Let me show you what technological advancement means!"
Jiang Cheng also took the weapon he had made and lifted it up himself, and blue light gathered.
The three of them attacked together, using all kinds of weapons.
Shoot at the BOSS together.
Finally, the boss collapsed with a loud bang, exploding into a shower of golden light and rare materials.
[Congratulations on defeating the Boss, current score +5000]
The four of them stared at the screen in unison, their lips curled in smiles.
"It's so cool!" the fat man roared.
“That’s what we call teamwork!”
Jiang Cheng's fingers were still rapidly tapping on the forging panel:
"Keep going! We can still get another wave!"
Xiaolin looked at the various materials on the ground:
"We poor players are turning things around! We now have more materials than monsters!"
The light of the forge grew brighter in the ruins,
Accompanied by the roar of the monster and the roar of the energy explosion, the four people laughed as if they were in the dormitory.
In this round, they finally played to their heart's content.
