The equipment being launched these days mainly targets non-ranked and First Order ordinary professionals.
Whether they are combat professionals or those in lifestyle careers, buying this equipment means they only need a little training to quickly level up and bypass the quests for both First and Second Order promotions.
Of course, the quests I'm talking about here are not those rare or harder difficulties.
After all, professionals who are stuck at non-ranked or First Order are mostly at the very bottom.
Such professionals mostly give up and become content with their situation, losing their ambition.
Thanks to the Great Xia Empire's official promotion, they even recorded videos of runs using this equipment, which amounts to hand-holding through the process.
And because the equipment is not pricey, these bottom-tier professionals have been roused a little, starting to re-enter dungeons and even take on promotion quests.
After all, leveling up not only enhances physical strength but also increases lifespan!
No one doesn't want to live longer, so even those who had given up have unusually rallied to the cause.
The increase in strength for the bottom-tier professionals also signifies a boost in the overall citizen strength of the Great Xia Empire.
At the very least, should there be a monster surge or trouble from an Evil Organization, these lower-tier professionals would have some means to defend themselves, unlike before where they would only be able to sit and wait for death.
The better the sales of firearms equipment, the more the munitions companies earn, and their wealth will greatly increase.
Although Dragon Coins are no longer as essential to Zi Liyuan as before, they can still be used to recruit talents.
After all, who doesn't have friends or family?
"Let's go, everything that needs to be prepared is ready. To avoid any complications, let's set out now."
After buying a large batch of food, enough for two people to eat for three months, they pulled out a custom off-road jeep and zipped out of White Crane City toward the wilderness.
It goes without saying, due to the invasion of dungeons and the game merging with reality, apart from towns, villages are extremely rare in the Great Xia Empire, resulting in narrow roads in the wilderness.
And the farther away from the towns, the more dilapidated the roads become, full of potholes, driving on them felt like sitting on a massage chair, with the vibrations numbing the body.
The most annoying part is that monsters may be squatting on the highways in the wild, lying in wait for humans to come by as their prey.
Unfortunately, Lord Zi and the other came across an ambush.
When the off-road jeep was several dozen kilometers out in the wilderness, a large tree lay across the already battered road, and a group of monsters lurked on both sides.
It was a Level 45 Elite Boss cave monster leading a hundred or so cave creatures ranging from Level 20 to Level 40, ambushing passing humans.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a crappy Boss. Yuer, do you want to have a go?"
Being surrounded by a bunch of minor monsters was just a little diversion on the journey for Zi Liyuan.
However, to prevent these dumb monsters from damaging the vehicle, Zi Liyuan immediately summoned a team of a hundred Elite Skeleton Warriors to surround the car.
"Perfect, I can test out the weapon Xiao Yurou gave me."
Fan Yuer didn't refuse, it was a good opportunity to test the power of the new equipment in action.
She opened the sunroof of the off-road jeep, pulled out a six-barreled Gatling gun, and a ammo box as tall as her shin.
Then, Fan Yuer brutally aimed the gun barrel at the approaching horde of monsters and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The recoil of the Gatling was negligible for Fan Yuer, whose physical strength had long since exceeded several hundred.
The sound of bullets firing, "chichichi," crazily erupted at this moment, turning into a metallic storm as countless bullets blitzed the monster horde.
The next instant, a dense flurry of red damage numbers floated up from the heads of the group of monsters.
In just a few seconds, the barrage of bullets mowed down a large number of the creatures, splattering blood and flesh all over the place.
The hundreds of minor monsters didn't last even twenty seconds before they became scattered corpses, with the only surviving creature being that Elite Boss cave monster that hid behind.
"Damn, to think that you'd actually bring out a six-barreled Gatling. Too bad it's not the kind that spouts blue flames."
Shen Yurou had been researching something these days, which Zi Liyuan had not paid attention to. Now, seeing the Gatling Bodhisattva, even he was taken aback.
"How many bullets does this thing fire in a second now?"
Xiao Yurou said, this current Gatling machine gun is just a basic version that can only fire 500 rounds per second."
Fan Yuer casually waved her hand and put away the Gatling gun and the ammo box, even collecting up the spent casings from the ground.
Then she took out a sniper rifle, aimed, fired, all in one smooth sequence, and the action didn't even take two seconds in total.
With a loud "bang," a specially made Armor Piercing bullet burst out, cutting through the air and instantly embedding itself in the chest of the cave monster.
Blood splattered as flesh flew, leaving the Boss with a hole the size of a thumb going right through it, a truly chilling and soaring experience.
Nine successive "bang bang bang" shots rang out as nine more Armor Piercing bullets swiftly hit the body of the Boss, bringing up huge numbers of red damage.
The Elite Boss cave monster had already toppled to the ground, its torn and tattered body oozing a pool of blood.
