Report

Kieran had planned to sell the two Tekken-2 rockets. He did not plan to keep them.

First, he did not have the corresponding skills, so he could not bring out the full potential of the rocket launcher. Unless he was bombarding the place like he had in Zarukhar's camp, it would not be as effective as the sniper rifle in his hand.

Second, the weight of the Tekken-2 rocket launcher. Even though Kieran's Strength had increased by one rank, he could not carry a sniper rifle and carry a rocket launcher on his back. His Strength and Stamina would not be able to do that. Kieran, who had been through many battles, knew the importance of Agility in critical moments.

Thirdly, and most importantly, a standard rocket launcher that was suitable for all types of rocket launchers was sold in the [Shop] for 500 points!

When Kieran saw the price, he was still a little hesitant.

But when he saw the price, Kieran's heart suddenly became firm.

He could not afford it!

Even if Kieran did not want to admit it.

His S-Rank rating did not seem to be very good.

The rockets he had fired in Zarukhar's camp were enough to get him three S-Rank ratings.

"Is it because of the newbie dungeon?"

Kieran looked at the information. It clearly stated, "Final newbie dungeon rewards are as follows."

This made Kieran have more speculations.

But soon, when Kieran saw the trades on the forum, his attention was completely diverted.

A damaged, average attack pistol was priced at 90 to 110 points among the players. The main reason the price fluctuated was whether or not to give two matching magazines.

A damaged assault rifle with average attack power was priced at around 300 points among the players, and it didn't come with any matching bullets.

A U-2 defensive grenade was also priced at 300 points.

Most of the trades on the forum were at this level.

While Kieran was browsing, a pistol with the attribute [Precise Shooting Lvl 1] appeared. It was priced at 1000 points, and before Kieran could get a clear look at its attributes, it was already bought by someone else.

Obviously, attribute equipment was favored.

This gave Kieran more confidence in his next plan.

The two Tekken-2 rocket launchers he brought back had attributes!

Because of the heavy load, Kieran naturally picked the best equipment from Zarukhar's armory and brought it back.

[Name: Tekken-2]

Type: Rocket Launcher

Rarity: Brand New

[Attack: Powerful]

[Bullet capacity: 1 round]

[Attributes: Burning Lvl 1]

Special Effect: None

[Prerequisite: Firearm Weapon, Heavy Firearm (Basic)]

[Remarks: Depending on the rocket, it can trigger explosions, armor penetration and other effects, provided that you have such a rocket.]



Perhaps it was because of the same brand or the same military factory.

The attributes of the two Tekken-2 rocket launchers were the same.

The price was just as high!

"Most of the weapons traded by the players on the forum have average attack power, and most of them are firearms. Cold weapons like swords and sabers are very rare. Up until now, other than normal daggers, longswords, and sabers, there's nothing worth paying attention to! The defensive equipment is the common combat uniform and bulletproof vests. There's nothing worth paying attention to either! "

Kieran's eyes scanned through the many weapons and defensive equipment on the forum.

He had a general idea in his mind.

The players at the current stage of the game should have entered a gun-oriented dungeon.

Of course, there was the possibility of a few high-tier players breaking out of this category.

After all, there were 300 players who survived the closed beta.

And that was a year ago!

Even if these closed beta players entered the dungeon once every three months, they would still be able to survive.

Up until now, they had already gone through four dungeons!

If there were more extreme players, the number would increase exponentially.

A player who had gone through eight or even ten dungeons would never use such a common firearm.

It should be a more powerful firearm or weapon.

Before this, Kieran had browsed through the game's [Shop]. Although there were no powerful weapons or equipment, there were all kinds of ammunition.

Some of the special types of ammunition were enough for Kieran to speculate about some high-tier weapons and equipment.

The veteran players who used these high-tier weapons were the ones that Kieran wanted to trade with.

It wasn't just because the player was rich, but also because the player had a deep understanding of the underground game.

If the player could tell him more about the underground game, Kieran wouldn't mind giving him a discount.

Of course, he had to lure such a player out first.

With that in mind, Kieran quickly took action.

"This is the first time you have entered the forum to trade. Do you want to choose a nickname?"

The mechanical voice asked.

"Yes!"

Kieran thought for a while and nodded. He then randomly gave a nickname, "2567!"

There was no meaning to it. It was just a random choice.

It was just like when he was in the gold farming workshop.

"Nickname 2567 confirmed! Please place the item on the trading counter and mark the price! "

After the mechanical voice subsided, a holographic platform appeared in front of Kieran.

Kieran placed a [Tekken-2] rocket launcher on the trading counter. Suddenly, the rocket launcher turned illusory. Kieran wasn't surprised at all. This was a game after all. What was there to be surprised about?

If he really wanted to be surprised, the virtual technology of the underground game was more shocking.

A form appeared on the trading desk, along with a pen.

Picking up the pen, Kieran wrote down the price of the [Tekken-2] rocket launcher.

10000 Points, 5 Skill Points!

The [Shop] offered 3,000 Points, 1 Skill Point, which was much higher than the price in the game. However, if Kieran really believed the price in the game, he would be crazy.

Every player knew that the price in the game [Shop] was only half of the original price, or even lower!

Moreover, only a sufficiently high price would be able to attract those veteran players.

If the price was too high, it would scare everyone away. Kieran wasn't worried about that.

The people who really wanted it would definitely contact him through private messages.

He placed the form back on the trading counter. Immediately, the holographic image of the trading counter and the [Tekken-2] rocket launcher disappeared in front of Kieran.

In the player forum, a new message appeared.

Then, Kieran chose to quit the game.

He knew that in order to achieve the ideal, he needed time to ferment.

This time period wouldn't be too long, nor would it be too short.

He could use this time to deal with his personal problems.



When Kieran walked out of the washroom, the fast food had softened in the hot water and was ready to eat.

As for the taste?

Three fast food a day, Kieran, who hadn't changed in three years, had already numbed his tongue.

But it could fill his stomach!

This was enough for Kieran.

His financial situation didn't allow him to waste more on food.

Three federal coins per box was already the limit for Kieran, even if it was a discounted price.

As an orphan, Kieran not only had a free welfare house to live in before he became an adult, but he also had a big discount on any daily necessities.

Especially the food, it was half price.

Although Kieran hoped that it could be completely free, this was simply impossible.

In fact, this kind of welfare and discount also came with a price.

Kieran needed to serve the Federation for free for 18 months after he became an adult.

For this, Kieran didn't have any complaints.

Because if it wasn't for this policy, he would have died a long time ago.

The last mouthful of soup in the fast food box was also poured into Kieran's stomach, leaving not a single drop.

Even if it tasted bad, Kieran wouldn't waste food.

After putting the fast food box into the trash, Kieran once again laid on the bed and put on the virtual reality helmet.



The scene in front of him changed.

When Kieran came back to his senses, he had already appeared in his room in the underground game — the dilapidated metal warehouse that had nothing commendable other than its size.

Kieran walked to the LCD screen, opened the forum, and directly clicked on the Rocket Launcher Trading Information Bar of [Tekken-2].

Beep beep beep!

Suddenly, a series of message prompts rang in Kieran's ears.

Looking at the constantly flashing private message bar, Kieran wasn't anxious. Instead, he looked at the players' messages under the trading information bar.

1: F * ck! Rocket Launcher!

2: The original poster is crazy poor!

3: The previous poster is an idiot!

4: 2000 points sincerely, contact the original poster!

5: The previous poster is a bargain, I'll pay 2500 points!

6: I'm the deacon of Steam City. Give me [Tekken-2] and I'll pull you into the guild!

7: The Iron Chariot says that the previous poster is a fake!

8: Without the corresponding skills, it's impossible to use such heavy firepower!

9: Excuse me, what are skill points?

10: The previous poster is a noob!



There were a total of two hundred messages, but most of them were meaningless.

However, there were also quite a few that were worth paying attention to.

At the end of the message, the nickname "Lawless" said that he was willing to pay 5000 points and 2 skill points to purchase [Tekken-2].

This was the highest price that Kieran had seen so far.

"A new player? Or an experienced player? "

Kieran's guess was leaning towards the latter.

If it was a new player, he shouldn't have such a high net worth. After all, Kieran had only gotten 3000 points with an S-rank rating. Maybe there were higher ratings, but the points he would get would not be much. 5000 to 6000 points was the limit. Under such circumstances, there were not many new players who would be willing to pay 5000 points to purchase [Tekken-2].

In fact, it could be said that there were not many.

At least, he could not take out all the money from a single adventure to buy a weapon, especially since the weapon did not have any ammunition. He would have to pay a high price to buy it.

After reading all the messages, Kieran opened the private message bar — this was where he had placed his hopes.

However, most of the messages were meaningless, including, but not limited to, friend requests, photos requests, etc.

Kieran deleted all the messages and looked at the remaining valuable ones.

Once again, a player with the ID of "Lawless" appeared in the game.

This time, the player raised the price again.

6000 points and 2 skill points!
