Chapter 41: This Must Be an Automatic Lock!

Translator: 549690339

“Goblin Forest” instance.

The dense woods, shadowy and ominous, could not quell Shen Yurou’s burning passion.

After crafting a large number of mechanical items, even though the experience gained wasn’t much, it had raised Shen Yurou’s level from Level 2 to Level 3.

At that moment, clad in two pieces of blue equipment and with Radio Calisthenics Level 3, her Spirit had just reached 10 points, allowing her to detonate 10 bombs at once using her Spirit to trigger the explosions!

Excluding the boss of this instance, there were no monsters that could withstand the simultaneous explosion of lO[Gunpowder Time Bombs (Green)], let alone the blue and silver-tier bombs of the same type.

However, when dealing with lesser monsters, she did not plan to use the bombs, since crafting them consumed a considerable amount of materials, and she had equipment with a better cost-performance ratio in her hands.

Thus, Shen Yurou simply pulled out two [Gunpowder Handguns – Type One (Blue)] and held one in each hand, then proceeded with caution, carefully observing her surroundings as she slowly advanced into the depths of the forest.

[Gunpowder Handgun – Type One (Blue):Physical Damage +9, Physical Damage +10, Physical Damage +10; Fire Rate: 60 rounds/minute, Effective Range: 60 meters, Magazine Capacity: 20 rounds; can only use gunpowder bullets, can be equipped by all classes at Level 1]

Each gun dealt 29 points of physical damage, and with her own physical strength bonus, her physical damage reached 35 points. After using gunpowder bullets, there was an additional 5 points of physical damage, resulting in a 40- point physical damage attack. Dual-wielding these guns was equivalent to double the damage.

[Goblin (Rare)]

[Level]: Level 1

[Attributes]: Physical Damage 10, Physical Defense 4, Health 300.

[Skills]: Heavy Strike

[Combat Power]: 12

A Level 1 Goblin only had a Physical Defense of 4, so one shot could deal 36 points of damage—not to mention critical hits to vital points, which could double the damage.

Given a goblin’s speed, it would take more than 5 seconds to close the distance from 60 meters away. With an attack speed of two shots per second, Shen Yurou could fire 10 shots, which, if all hit, would result in a minimum of 360 points of damage.

So, theoretically, a goblin would die on its approach, never managing to get close to her.

Upon spotting a monster and aiming at the target, she fired and hit, then saw a somewhat bewildered goblin with two streaks of blood gushing from its face and two “-72” damage points floating above its head.

Shen Yurou stated that she aimed at the goblin’s chest as per Zi Liyuan’s advice, since it was a larger target, making it easier to hit. She didn’t intentionally aim for the goblin’s head.

This unlucky goblin had just spotted the target and launched a Charge roar at Shen Yurou when it met its glorious end, having covered less than 10 meters.

“Does a Mechanic get a hit bonus for using their own crafted devices?”

Shen Yurou only fired six shots, yet achieved three critical hits and landed the other three on the goblin’s chest, without missing a single bullet. She couldn’t help wondering if Mechanics had some sort of hidden passive bonus.

“Whether there’s an additional bonus or not, just try a few more targets, and then we’ll know,” she thought.

Searching for her next target, the next victim quickly appeared in her field of view, and this goblin was even more ill-fated.

Shen Yurou only fired five shots, all of which were direct hits to the face, each bullet a critical strike. The face of this unfortunate goblin was a blur of blood and flesh upon its death.

“Confirmed, there’s definitely a hidden bonus—this has got to be some kind of auto-headshot cheat!”

After testing on a dozen or so goblins, Shen Yurou discovered that as long as she took careful aim, her critical hit rate was as high as 40%!

Absurd!

Guns in hand, no worries about ammo.

In low-level newbie instances without hordes of monsters to contend with, all Shen Yurou needed to do was plow her way through to the end to reach the final boss area.

[Rare BOSS – Big Goblin]

[Level]: Level 10

[Stats]: Physical Damage 25, Physical Defense 8, Health 1000.

[Skills]: Charge, Heavy Strike, Charged Swing

[Combat Power]: 30

The Level 10 Big Goblin BOSS had a whopping 1000 health points, but that was about the only impressive thing about it.

“The maximum output range is 60 meters, it would only take the Big Goblin 6 seconds to cross that distance.”

Shen Yurou tilted her head, beginning to calculate how to take down the BOSS.

“No, this green-skin has the Charge skill, reducing the time to cover 60 meters down to within 3 seconds, which means I can only fire 6 shots.”

Naturally, Shen Yurou wouldn’t just stand still and shoot, so she could retreat a bit more, but at most, she would get off around 8 shots before the BOSS caught up to her in close range.

Eight shots, by normal damage calculations, would deal 256 points of damage, leaving 744 hit points. At the very least, it would require 8 bombs to blast it away.

With a cursory glance to gauge the distance between her and the BOSS, she backed up another 5 meters from the maximum range of 60 meters, then pulled out a shovel and began digging holes to plant mines.

However, she didn’t use the blue or silver quality bombs, instead opting for the cheapest “Gunpowder Time Bomb (Green).”

Each of these could deal damage between too to 150 with a 10-meter effective range. Shen Yurou planted seven of them.

She just couldn’t believe her luck would be so bad that each bomb would only erupt for the minimum damage of too points!

After purchasing the bombs and inspecting that her pistol’s magazine was full, adjusting her own status, Shen Yurou raised her twin guns and aimed straight at the Big Goblin BOSS’S face.

The triangular green-skin’s face was clearly visible in her sight as she squeezed the triggers without hesitation.

“Pop pop” gunfire echoed through the forest, angering the Big Goblin BOSS, who, with two bleeding holes in its forehead, raised its Wolf Fang Club and roared “Awoooo” as it charged at Shen Yurou.

As the sound of gunfire continued, “pop pop,” Shen Yurou fired while retreating until she reached just behind the spot where she had planted the mines and stopped moving.

At this point, the Big Goblin BOSS, riddled with bullet holes, finally closed the distance to within 5 meters of her.

Looking at the delicate-skinned human female before it, the Big Goblin BOSS revealed a sinister smile, its eyes gleaming with a scorching, lewd light, and its Wolf Fang Club was lifted high above its head.

The last thing it saw, however, was the coquettish smile the human female gave it.

“Bye-bye-”

As the green-skin BOSS stepped into the center of the bomb pit, Shen Yurou smiled sweetly and then detonated the seven bombs with her Spirit.

A “boom” thundered, soil churned, stones shot out, and heat roared.

The green-skin BOSS was torn apart like a rag doll by the massive explosion in an instant, flung in all directions along with the blast wave.

Within the 10-meter radius of the explosion, Shen Yurou, who had been smiling just moments ago, was left with nothing but indistinct flesh. Especially her beautiful face, now marred by a piece of flesh, looked as shockingly grotesque as could be.

“Ptooey! Ptooey! Ugh-! Zi! Li! Yuan! You absolutely did that on purpose! Ugh-!!!”

Shen Yurou, having witnessed the BOSS being instantaneously torn to pieces and splattered with its flesh, vomited promptly.

When Zi Liyuan explained to her how to use these bombs, afraid she would mess up the timing, he strongly recommended she detonate them with her Spirit, preferably standing near the bomb pit to accurately gauge whether the monster was covered by the explosion.
