I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms

Chapter 242 "This is the unrestricted version.



Wang Haina, though humble in words, wore a look of pride on his face, "Due to my rising fame these days, many people have been looking to buy from me, but I've kept everything, not selling a single one."

"All saved for Miao. I'm not the ungrateful type—Miao has done so much for me, I could never forget him when I come across good stuff," he said.

"However—"

"That stuff isn't the real deal."

"Take a look at this."

-

'Prop Name': Effect Refresh Ticket (Unlimited). Your next chapter awaits on empire

'Prop Level': None.

'Prop Effect': Upon activation, this prop allows the user to erase and randomly replace any effect on any prop.

'Prop Restriction': None.

'Prop Description': None.

-

"This is the unlimited version."

Wang Haina continued, "The previous refresh ticket could only refresh within the prop's own 'Effect Pool,' but this item can refresh within the 'Effect Pool' of any prop."

"No class or level restrictions."

"Any effect that could appear in other props' 'Effect Pools' could potentially be refreshed onto the item in your hand."

"Huh?"

Confused, Hungry Monkey asked incredulously, "What do you mean? Does that mean my boxer's gloves could actually end up with a bullet effect that deals fire damage?"

"Yes, that's how it is."

"And that's useful how?"

"What use is it for gloves to have bullet effects?"

"So what's the damn point? I was thinking, if it could refresh with that effect, allowing me to fire a bullet with every punch, at least that'd surprise my opponents."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Wang Haina looked at Hungry Monkey with a faint voice, "You might not understand, this refresh ticket has absolutely no restrictions, which means even an E-level prop could refresh with an S-level prop's effect."

"No restrictions, even on level."

"Do you know what this has turned into in the market? A high stakes gamble."

"Yesterday, the highest going price for this unlimited refresh ticket was 120,000 Star Coins. To a Supernatural in his 40s, 120,000 Star Coins isn't a huge sum, and it's impossible for them to possess an S-level prop. Spending 100,000 Star Coins in hopes of getting a chance at an S-level prop is a gamble some are willing to take."

"But 120,000 Star Coins was yesterday's price. Do you know what the highest price is today?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"How much?"

"1,190,000 Star Coins."

"1,190,000 Star Coins?" Hungry Monkey paused, then lowered his head and muttered while counting on his fingers, "1,190,000 Star Coins is roughly equivalent to 20 million Credit Points, right? 20 million Credit Points... Yuan Buping, can you calculate how many gravesites that could buy?"

"A sudden price surge like that?"

Chen Miao narrowed his eyes slightly and, after a pause, spoke thoughtfully, "Did someone succeed in their gamble?"

"Mhm."

Wang Haina nodded and projected a picture in mid-air, "This photo went viral across the net yesterday. It shows the effect panel of a prop. Just one look and you'll see how outrageous it is."

-

'Prop Name': Wolf Fang Armor.

'Prop Level': E-level Prop.

'Prop Effect':

1: Receive 200% damage from any attack, but no attack can deal more than 1% of your maximum health as damage.

2: Immune to a portion of Fire Attribute damage.

'Prop Restriction': Only usable by Swordsmen.

'Prop Description': Wolf Fang signifies the fearlessness of a Swordsman.

...

"See that?"

Wang Haina pointed to the first effect on the picture with a hint of frustration and said, "Do you see how insane the first effect of this prop is? Although the damage taken is increased, the maximum damage you take won't exceed 1% of your maximum health."

"What does that imply?"

"It means if a boss has a particularly powerful area-of-effect skill that kills on contact, this person could resist the boss's 99 attempts at a wipeout using this prop and grind the boss down to death."

"Like, Miao, you'd normally kill this guy in one shot, but now no matter how high your damage, you'd need at least one hundred shots to take him down, and a lot can happen in that time."

"This effect is from some S-level prop, though which one is unclear."

"..."

Chen Miao pondered the panel and drew a cigarette from his chest pocket, lit it, and fell into thought. He didn't find the effect particularly strong as he rarely killed with a single shot.

He prefers to kill with a burst.

His Thomson fires 20,000 bullets in a burst, all in one second, each bullet causing separate damage. Even if the damage taken each time is capped at not more than 1% of one's health, how does it matter?

For him, there's no difference. Burst fire down, you die all the same.

This effect is only strong against bosses or Supernaturals with powerful trump cards who don't attack frequently. It's a perfect counter.

Alone, it doesn't seem fitting for an S-level.

But considering that this effect is just one of the many on an S-level prop, it makes sense.

"Why choose such a poor base to use the Unlimited Exchange Ticket?"

Chen Miao raised a question that concerned him. If one were to gamble, shouldn't they pick a better base? An E-level prop indeed seemed a bit wasteful.

"Miao, you hit the nail on the head," Wang Haina said with a hint of regret. "Unfortunately, the secret realm in 'Gaobei City' that produced this item has a level cap, allowing only players below level 15 to enter."

"This player was one of the first to emerge from this secret realm. At the time, they didn't think the Unlimited Refresh Ticket was worth much and didn't care much about it, using it on their armor on a whim."

"They forgot about it until a few days ago, when the price of the item started to rise. Seeing the Unlimited Refresh Ticket reach 110,000, they realized they had wasted something that could've sold for that much and regretfully posted the picture to a forum."

"That photo alone drove the price of the Unlimited Refresh Ticket through the roof."

"The armor has since been auctioned by the player for a whopping 1.5 million Star Coins, around 30 million Credit Points."

"It's a shame the base item was poor, but with a better base, it could've sold for even more."
