Chapter 4: Is Your Armor Expensive?
“I didn’t expect you to even have something like this.”
Li Feng looked at this set of Basic Armor, feeling a little envious. For this school-organized hunt, Yang Wei really went all out.
Wearing the Basic Armor, Yang Wei appeared extremely confident and provoked, “Of course, if you’re scared, I can take off the armor and spar with you. After all, you’ve been slacking off for a year, and I wouldn’t want to bully you.”
“No need, let’s go to the training field!” Li Feng said indifferently.
He also wanted to see if the highly praised Basic Armor was really as impenetrable to non-Professional players as the rumors said.
“Good, you’ve got guts.” Yang Wei laughed.
The group arrived at the training field, an open space with a raised platform in the middle. The ground was made of sturdy material to prevent damage from the students’ sparring.
“There’s no one here, so even if you lose, no one will see you embarrassed. Come on up.” Yang Wei jumped onto the platform and taunted.
Today was the day for entering the dungeon, so the training field was almost empty. Everyone wanted to conserve their stamina before entering the dungeon. Compared to the usual crowd, there was only an old, white-bearded man sweeping the floor.
“Yes, there’s no one here.” Li Feng also said meaningfully, and then he jumped onto the platform.
Sheng Xu smiled from below, “Yang Wei, we still have to enter the dungeon later, remember to go easy on him.”
Qin Anran also looked at Li Feng with bright eyes. Although Li Feng had been slacking off for the past year, he was once a prominent figure. She wondered how much strength he could display now.
“Li Feng, I’ll let you attack first.” Yang Wei said with his hands behind his back.
“Alright.”
Facing Yang Wei, who was wearing Basic Armor, Li Feng didn’t hold back and said, “Be careful, my Strength is 5.”
The next moment, he charged like a fierce tiger, throwing a punch at Yang Wei’s chest.
Before the Global Digitization, the strength of an average adult was mostly 2 points, with a few reaching 3 points.
Reaching a Strength of 5 was undoubtedly considered superhuman.
Thump! A dull sound rang out.
Li Feng’s expression changed slightly. His fist felt like it had hit titanium alloy. The opponent didn’t budge, and a force of recoil from the Basic Armor pushed him back several steps.
“Li Feng, did you not eat? Your strength is too weak!” Yang Wei mocked, full of confidence. The Basic Armor was indeed powerful.
Qin Anran, who was watching from below, couldn’t help but frown. A year ago, a Strength of 5 was considered good, but in the third year of high school, it was at the bottom.
“Only 5 Strength, that’s too low!” Sheng Xu shook his head.
The world had already been digitized, and there was no such thing as aptitude. As long as one didn’t slack off and diligently used the breathing technique to temper oneself, a year was enough to increase Strength to above 6.
Li Feng’s family was poor, and he would definitely have to choose the Warrior or Tank class in the future. Both of these classes had high requirements for Strength.
“Looks like there’s no suspense in this battle. Lose!” Yang Wei grinned and charged at Li Feng like a tank, moving with surprising speed.
The Basic Armor was one of the greatest inventions of Great Xia Nation in recent years. It was not only sturdy but also lightweight, not affecting the user’s agility at all, making it the most popular among players.
“Sure enough, my Strength is still too weak.”
Li Feng shook his head, but his expression remained calm. He activated his breathing technique, and a mysterious power surged from his heart. A hexagonal star array appeared, and a rectangular robot jumped out, blocking the way.
Since obtaining the Mechanical Heart, he found that summoning Rx Pursuer not only consumed less energy but was also faster.
It seemed that the Mechanical Heart breathing technique was one of the core skills of the Mechanical type.
“What is this? Could it be a Beginner skill?” Yang Wei was taken aback but quickly reacted. Wearing the Basic Armor, he was fearless and threw a punch.
Boom!
Rx Pursuer self-destructed, and a small mushroom cloud erupted. Yang Wei was sent flying, the armor on his chest broken open, revealing b*oody flesh.
◈◈◈
“What?”
“How is that possible?”
Below, Qin Anran and Sheng Xu were stunned.
They never expected this outcome.
“I still underestimated the power of Rx Pursuer.” Li Feng was also secretly astonished. He didn’t expect that one attack would not only break through the armor but also seriously injure Yang Wei.
Then he felt a little embarrassed and said, “Are you okay? I didn’t know this skill was so powerful. I shouldn’t have accepted your challenge.”
To have such a big mishap right before entering the dungeon made Li Feng feel a little bad.
“I’m fine, I’m completely convinced.” Yang Wei got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said with some lingering fear, “Luckily you didn’t take my challenge earlier, otherwise I would probably be in the hospital now.”
Even wearing the Basic Armor, he was almost blown to pieces. If he hadn’t been wearing it, he would probably be on his way to the crematorium.
“Sigh, it seems that rumors are harmful. They say that non-Professional players can’t break through Basic Armor, but it’s all lies.” Li Feng acted as if he had been deeply wronged.
“…”
The three of them were silent, not knowing what to say. This act of showing off was quite skillful.
The old, white-bearded man sweeping the floor nearby also twitched his mouth. He wanted to shout, “Your skill is too abnormal, can it be compared? It’s even more powerful than some Professional player skills.”
“By the way, is your armor expensive?”
Li Feng suddenly asked, then said a little shyly, “You know my family is poor, and this was a fair spar. You won’t make me compensate you, right?”
Although this Basic Armor was not durable, it looked very luxurious on the surface and should not be cheap. He heard that it cost 500,000 on the market.
“No need.”
Yang Wei’s heart was bleeding, but he still forced himself to be generous and said, “The hunt is the most important thing. As long as we can get a good ranking this time, it’s worth it even if we lose another set of Basic Armor.”
“That’s right. Originally, I was just aiming for a mid-to-high ranking, but now with you, we might be able to aim higher.”
Sheng Xu said happily.
They really found a treasure this time. They didn’t expect that Li Feng, the notorious internet addict, was actually a hidden expert player. With this skill alone, he could probably crush most of his peers.
Yang Wei said regretfully, “It’s a pity that we only prepared three sets of Basic Armor this time. Otherwise, we might have been able to compete for the top three.”
“How about I give up my armor?” Qin Anran suggested.
Now Li Feng was the main damage dealer, and his safety must be guaranteed.
After transferring to a Professional class, each player team would be allocated positions according to their classes, such as Mage, Support, Tank, etc.
“No need, I’m confident in my positioning. You guys just need to take care of yourselves.” Li Feng said calmly.
In the game, some feelings were transmitted. He had practiced his positioning in the game for a year, so his positioning in reality was naturally very good.
Ordinary monsters wouldn’t even be able to touch him.
