Chapter 849: Extraordinary Hail
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish]: "Speaking of the devil, the devil is here. I just sorted out the blueprint I got two hours ago and found something about shoulder swallowing."
[Lin Lanlan]: "So what this means now is that players are required to go out in this situation and collect the armor component blueprints."
[Yi Ling]: "It should be. I think there should be some special bonus after collecting a set of armor. It will be useful not only in this solar term, but also in the next solar term."
Having said that, everyone really wanted to rush out and give it a try.
However, the death toll of that day was still lingering in front of everyone's eyes. Although armor was important, life was also important. Everyone was in a dilemma and didn't know how to choose.
[Tihua Zhixiu]: "Then start from the area around your own courtyard. Don't be so anxious. We still have plenty of time."
[Yi Ling]: "Alas, it would be great if the shield armor could be upgraded one step further, but the upper limit of the blueprint is here..."
[Thirteen Barbarians]: "If only I had a stronger shield, I could withstand this hailstorm for a little longer."
In this way, they can act in a group, with people taking turns to hold up their shields to withstand the countless large hailstones falling from the sky, and perhaps they can walk farther this way.
[So redundant]: "There's nothing we can do. We can only hope that we can get lucky and encounter it when everyone goes out to clean up the hail."
For the rest of the afternoon, everyone wandered around the doorsteps of their houses, and when lightning struck, they would go inside and use their shields to block the hail attacks for a while.
If you get hurt, it’s no big deal, just one or two hits. Apply the Black Jade Ointment and it will heal quickly.
But the drawings were not so easy to drop, and no one gained anything after an entire afternoon.
[Yu Bai]: "At most I got some ore, but I didn't even see a scrap of paper in the blueprint!"
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish]: "Maybe the drop rate of today's blueprints has been used up this morning, so there will be more tomorrow?"
【Zi Bu Yu】: "It's too disgusting to play like this!"
[Qing Ben Zhiruo]: "It's okay, I've drawn up a blueprint."
Finally, thanks to Luo Zhiqing's good luck, a blueprint was drawn that greatly changed the current situation.
[Anti-glare sunglasses: cool sunglasses made of special minerals, with mysterious eye protection effect, allowing your eyes to face all kinds of strong light. ]
[Warm Tips: Wearing it for a long time will also cost you a little, please use it with caution. ]
[Shisanyi]: "It was Qingqing who took action. With just one move, she was able to obtain the blueprint props we urgently need. I really envy her luck!"
Luo Zhiqing quickly released the information about the blueprint. After everyone read the detailed introduction above, the name of the anti-glare sunglasses alone revealed all the information about what this prop was for.
Once again, everyone had to admit that Luo Zhiqing's luck was indeed extraordinary.
However, if you look down, you can see a line of warm reminder at the end, and suddenly you feel that this prop seems a bit bad.
[Foodie Pipi]: "We are asked to bear the cost, do we really need to use it? What if the cost is something we cannot afford, such as limbs? Life? It will be too late to find out after using it, and we may die if we are not careful."
[Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring]: "Don't panic. What if the price isn't that serious? I just said it to scare people so they won't use it."
She is a professional gamer who makes glasses, and people are reluctant to believe what she says.
[Yan Guilai who loves fried potato chips]: "These tips in the game are not groundless. Who can tell what the price will be? It will really cost us our lives. Isn't that playing with our lives?"
Even Shu Lingyi saw the blueprint and couldn't help but ask Xiao Ai what the price was.
【Want to know what the price is? Just try it and you will know. 】
Shu Ling rolled his eyes. If you try, you will die, right? !
[Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring]: "I bought this blueprint directly from Boss Qingqing, and then tried to make it. After making it, I will know what the price is after trying it out."
[Silver who loves to read novels]: "The price that can be written by the system should not be an easy thing."
This is Shu Lingyi's intuition, and there are many players who agree with her.
After learning about Shu Lingyi's complaints, Xiao Ai responded again:
[It won't lead to death. Just try it. It will only cause you pain for a few days, but it won't lead to death.]
Gave hints, but not much.
Shu Lingyi was still happy about this. Although he didn't say much, he still gave a very important message.
Xiao Ai at least gave a reminder, which means the cost should not be life-threatening.
Just because it doesn't involve life-threatening danger doesn't mean it's safe. If they perform an art show that makes you live a life worse than death, you will be even more miserable.
However, for the majority of players, there are always people who want to give it a try. Anyway, they have no choice but to take a gamble at this price.
However, after this [Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring] purchased the blueprint and started making it, and obtained the complete detailed information about the blueprint, he came to talk about it on the public screen.
【落花流水暮春】: "The details here are that it does not endanger life on the surface. There is definitely a cost, but it is definitely not that great."
【Flowing Years】: "But we can't see you, so who knows if you are here to deceive people."
[Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring]: "This pair of sunglasses really won't do anything to the players. Besides, why would I lie to you? It won't do me any good. Once I make the real thing, you'll be able to see the specific details."
[Lin Lanlan]: "Then we will wait for good news from Muchun. If the cost is not serious, then everyone can use it. As long as you feel uncomfortable, put it down immediately, or use it less every day."
So everyone comforted themselves and proposed to be guinea pigs to give it a try later.
The player who made the glasses, namely [Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring], immediately started to collect materials in a hurry after learning the blueprint.
[Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring]: "The materials needed for this pair of sunglasses are pretty easy to find. One of them is a very special ore. This ore has no veins, so there is no normal way to obtain it."
[Shisanyi]: "What ore? I have seen all kinds of ore. There are many kinds of ore in these hailstones alone. Tell me about it. Maybe it's in there."
Su Ranran was particularly interested in this, so she spoke excitedly on the public screen.
[Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring]: "There is no mineral vein, but there is a unique channel for obtaining it. In other words, the mineral vein of this thing is not on the ground but flying in the sky."
After that, [Falling Flowers, Flowing Water, Late Spring] released the information about this ore. When everyone saw this information, they immediately understood.
[Black Mist Stone: A black stone with mist flowing inside. Only the stone that is frozen from hailstones is of the best quality.]
Everyone knew from the beginning that all kinds of messy materials would come out of hail.
Fifty percent of the items in the big hailstones are of epic quality or above, including some dropped ores of epic quality, and there is even a 10% chance of being of legendary quality.
After breaking the ice, players may be able to harvest two to ten pieces of ore.
Even the Hao Ri Corundum that Shu Lingyi liked very much before would appear in this big hail, ranging from two to ten pieces.
It is precisely because the materials dropped inside are so attractive that many players can't help but want to go outside even though they know the danger.
Just like Su Ranran, who is still lying on the hospital bed, she is a good example. When she found that different minerals would drop here, she couldn't resist her nature of collecting them crazily.
According to her practical feedback, in addition to the basalt needed to make anti-glare sunglasses, there are many other minerals included. By constantly collecting them with gold coins and breaking the ice madly, she has summarized a total of 5 types of unfamiliar minerals.
Except for the Haori corundum, which everyone has some impression of, the others are unfamiliar minerals.
At the same time, it also indirectly explains that the source of these minerals can only be obtained by breaking the hail. If you miss this solar term, you will not be able to collect them when you need them.
Both the drawings for the shoulder strap and the shoulder bag were purchased by the tailor shop and prepared for production.
The material used for the shoulder guard is similar to the alloy wrist guard, but it also contains a piece of extremely tough blue silk.
This was what Luo Zhiqing used to weave fishing nets, and then used the fishing nets to carry the corpse of the Xuantian whale into the sea.
This blue silk is used on the shawl, which increases the elasticity of the shawl. It can be changed at any time to suit the different body shapes and arm thicknesses of players.
But Jiantun is different. It not only uses top-quality diamonds, but also Haori corundum and another rare mineral.
That mineral has a very cool name, called Wu Qu Amber.
The information description of this mineral states that it was formed from amber in ancient times that could trap tigers and wolves. The bones and blood of some large animals have melted inside it, so it is extremely rare to truly transform into Wu Qu amber. However, if it is used to carve into the shape of a ferocious beast, it can gain extra bonuses.
It was not until night, around ten o'clock, that these drawings were made into real objects. There was progress in the equipment, but it was too late and no one wanted to try it.
At most, I studied whether the shoulder cape and shoulder guard would have any additional benefits when paired with the alloy wrist guard.
Shu Lingyi was the first to receive the finished product, which was made by Luo Zhiqing and other master tailors.
The animal head carved with two shoulder gullets is a tiger. Dancing amber is the core material of this tiger head. It is solid and lifelike. It looks like a tiger roaring at others.
The tiger head is inlaid with two eyes carved from Haori corundum. The entire shoulder guard just covers the shoulder area, while the bottom is just an arm cover made of top-grade diamonds and Liushuang Ice Silkworm Brocade.
This is designed to help stabilize the shoulder position, and it can also better protect the shoulder, collarbone and chest area.
"I can also wear a close-fitting soft armor inside, with three layers inside and three layers outside. No one can hurt me."
Shu Lingyi was still joking. After he put on the shoulder guard, he began to put on the shoulder cape.
The outer layer of the shoulder cape is also a layer of top-grade diamond, carved into scales and inlaid on it. The inner lining is the familiar Flowing Frost Ice Silkworm Brocade woven with Blue Wave Silk, hanging from the base of the thumb.
The material used is very sweat-absorbent, very tough, and highly defensive, which can protect the arms tightly.
At the same time, it does not affect the players' movements, and there will be no impact or discomfort when performing various difficult actions.
"Let me see what's so charming about you!"
Shu Lingyi quickly put on the last alloy wrist guard. This armor at least provided complete protection from the shoulders to the wrists.
After it was properly put on, Shu Lingyi's arms and shoulders formed a straight line, and the trinity armor emitted a faint golden light.
Shu Lingyi waited until the golden light dissipated to check the details. The alloy wristband was similar to the last time, with some changes but not big.
What attracted Shu Lingyi the most were the other three lines of data.
[Shoulder Swallow: Increases strength by 20%, critical hit rate by 60%. ]
[Shoulderband: Increases defense by 50%, health by 30%. 】
[Armor Sleeves (3/3): Arm strength increase: 20%, arm damage reduction: 30%. ]
The values here can be added up. Players can add up the values little by little based on this ratio. Shu Lingyi knows it clearly in his mind: "This value is enough to make any player have considerable combat power!"
Shu Ling's eyes were sparkling with stars, he was so excited that he stroked the props back and forth with his hands.
The corners of his mouth lifted uncontrollably, and he wanted to rush out and throw a few punches: "It can be said that if I could wear this at the end of the last solar term when I was facing the Snow Mountain Dragon Turtle, my chances of winning would be increased by a few points."
The more he looked at it, the clearer it became about the terrifying numbers. Shu Ling's mood was wavering and he began to imagine a bright future.
If a set of mysterious armor could be put on, the added values would allow Shu Lingyi to think that the player could even kill a ninth-level monster in a single fight without any problem.
Even level 10 can cooperate in suppression and expulsion.
"Oh my god, with this value, won't it be easy for me to fight against various monsters?"
Shu Ling turned around twice on the spot before she calmed down her excitement. She was just thinking about it now. If she really had to rush forward, that would be another matter.
Besides, there are only a few parts at present, and the added values are not enough. We need a complete set.
Shu Lingyi was quite moved, and at the same time posted this data on the public screen to give feedback to other players.
[Flowing Years]: "It's finally here! The armor values of these three sets are really amazing!"
[Zi Bu Yu]: "I can't even imagine how strong I would be if I could collect a complete set."
[Tihuazhixiu]: "Look at the last piece of detailed information. This suit is indeed extraordinary."
Following Zhong Xiuyi's words, everyone shifted their focus from the values of the three-piece set to the last piece of information. When they saw the bonus information of the three-piece set, everyone's eyes widened.
[Han Wu]: "After taking a look at this information, it should be a three-piece set that is triggered by putting the Shoulder Swallowing Wrist Guard together. It is used to protect the hands and also gives bonuses to the hands."
Life players don’t have such an intuitive understanding of this value, but combat players feel frightened by the value provided.
[Tian Mozi]: "Adding these values together - if a level 10 demon beast has a complete set of armor, it will be just like this in front of us, right?"
[Bai Moxi]: "That's right. Just the increased strength of this arm alone can make me feel the terror. We may have some pressure in dealing with the ninth-level monster before, but with these three pieces of equipment, it will be much easier."
[Bai Moxi]: "We can even say that from now on, it will be no problem for us to kill monsters below level nine with our bare hands!"
[Tihua Zhixiu]: "Then we must seize the opportunity during this solar term. While the hail can reveal the blueprints now, we must gather the armor set!"
[Qiu Xiu's meaning is that we will encounter a beast tide composed of high-level monsters in the next solar term, so the game provides this kind of blueprint.
[Yu Bai]: "Hiss... what you said makes sense. This time the hailstorm increased our chances of obtaining the blueprint. I guess it was to entice us to put on our sunglasses and go out to fight the hailstorm. It will pave the way for the next solar term. We have no choice but to go."
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish]: "If you don't go, you won't get the blueprint, and you'll lose the key props in the next solar term, right?"
[Qiona from Nantian Ancient City]: "This is too scary! In this situation, some people would go out and face the hail. They are really risking their lives to collect the blueprints."
【Zi Bu Yu】: "Put on those sunglasses tomorrow and go out to smash the hail. As long as we all work together, we will definitely be able to gather enough!"
[Xiao Xiao Yang Mei]: "It seems like it depends a lot on luck. It's not like you can get it just by opening it. There should be quite a few parts for a complete set of armor. It will be hard to get enough parts if you don't ask for help from the big boss."
Her words were recognized by most of the players. So many players had a deep understanding of Luo Zhiqing's luck.
If Luo Zhiqing were to step in, it wouldn't seem that difficult to put together a complete set.
[Qing Ben Zhiruo]: "I will team up with Yi Yi and the others when the time comes. Don't panic, I will help."
Luo Zhiqing also responded on the public screen. She had received Shu Lingyi's message in the background a long time ago, and she was all excited because of this armor value.
She raised the corners of her mouth and smiled sweetly. Naturally, she was willing to take the time to go out and collect drawings. This would not only make Shu Lingyi happy, but also fulfill the expectations of so many players.
[Falling Flowers and Flowing Water in Late Spring]: "I hope I can work overtime to make some anti-glare sunglasses, so that you can go out together tomorrow, and I wish you a fruitful return!"
Everyone applauded and welcomed it warmly.
【Flowing Years】: "That's great. I'm also looking forward to it and waiting for the sunglasses to be produced."
[Xin Jing]: "Me too. If I follow Boss Ranran, I'll have more ores, and my Thunder Bombs can be slightly strengthened."
Therefore, many players were motivated and decided to rest early tonight so that they could go out to break the hail early tomorrow morning.
However, none of the players expected that everyone would arrive so early the next day.
As the winter solstice approaches, few players will wake up before 7:00.
The daybreaks are late now, often around 7:00 a.m., and there are thick dark clouds overhead every day, so it’s almost 8 a.m. before we can see the daylight.
At 6:30 today, countless players were awakened by a huge thunder, accompanied by terrible lightning. When it fell, the entire sky turned into daylight in an instant.
Everyone was blinded by the strong light of lightning and woke up in a daze.
Once you wake up, you will be stimulated by the continuous lightning and will never be able to fall asleep again.
Shu Lingyi was one of them. After waking up, she opened the public screen to check the weather forecast first.
[February 6, 3103, 06:32, Winter Solstice, today's temperature is -41°, strong winds and thunder and lightning, thick clouds with black and red, huge hail continues to fall for 13 hours, repair the shield in time, do not leave the territory easily, the temperature is too cold, players please take good care of yourself. ]
[Zi Bu Yu]: "Oh, oh, oh, really huge hail! I'm a little scared!"
Shu Lingyi was just about to ask her if she saw it, how big was the huge hail?
[Zi Bu Yu]: "Looking at the size of this thing, um... do you understand the concept of a meteorite falling from the sky? I managed to hold it in with my arms, but it's only this big."
Many players had just been awakened by the thunder, and when they read the information, their eyes were blurry and they were still half awake.
But as soon as I saw the news revealed by [Zi Bu Yu], my scalp suddenly went numb!
Can I hug you with both hands or just barely? !
How big must the hail be!
This was the only thought left in everyone's mind, so some people were suddenly frightened and their brains became clear instantly.
[Yin who loves to read novels]: "I decided to muster up the courage to go out and take a look. Is it really that big?"
[Xiao Xiao Yangmei]: "Then I'll go and broaden my horizons, the meteorite from outer space - holy shit, it's really this big!"
Many people were hit by two or three large hailstones falling down as soon as they opened the door, leaving a hole on the ground. Everyone was so scared that they dared not step out of their houses.
If this thing hits the player's body, it can really break his bones. Ordinary clothing and protective gear are probably of little use in blocking it.
[Qing Ben Zhiruo]: "We can't let the hail keep falling. If there are too many, they will pile up. The hailstones right now are too big and take up a lot of space. If the ground is covered with them, they will soon pile up layer by layer."
In the short time that the players were shocked, a layer of huge hail had already piled up on the ground wherever they could see.
If it continues, it will pile up layer by layer like building blocks. Luo Zhiqing has already told everyone on the public screen how terrible it will be.
[Dean Zhu who loves to eat soy milk fish]: "If everyone doesn't take action, there will be no way to take action later. After the hailstones pile up, you will think about clearing away the hailstones below, and then the hailstones above will naturally fall down all at once..."
A thousand-mile dike starts from an ant's nest.
