242: Musket! It's him again!
“This can also drop loot!”
Seeing the glittering item on the display case in the abandoned exhibition hall, Zhang Yu rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
After confirming he hadn't seen wrong, his face was full of incredulity!
Because the material placed in that glass display case was precisely the big red material worth hundreds of thousands, the smoothbore gun!
One must know, Lu Xueqing had just found a red quality quantum storage from a locker in the underground vault.
Logically speaking, even for a confidential difficulty, it would be incredibly lucky to find one red material in a single match.
Unexpectedly, once the Museum's abandoned exhibition hall key room was opened, another one appeared, and it was even a big red from the collectibles!
The drop rate of this key room is too high!
“Hey, what are you two standing here for?”
Suddenly, Xiao Yun’s voice came from outside the main door, with a slight smile in his tone.
He had just entered through the Museum's northwest gate and saw Lu Xueqing and Zhang Yu standing there in shock.
Seeing their location was in the key room, he didn’t even need to think; they must have found something good again.
“Loot dropped?”
“Mhm mhm! Master, you’ve come back just in time. Zhang Yu and I just opened this key room, and unexpectedly, another big red dropped!”
“Really?”
Xiao Yun quickly walked into the key room and was immediately drawn to the golden, gleaming collectible in the glass display case.
“Material: smoothbore gun collectible”
“Quality: Red”
“Price: 669130”
“Evaluation: 3x3 can’t fit, evaluated as a pure construct”
Seeing the system’s evaluation, Xiao Yun smiled knowingly.
Indeed, in the games of his previous life, the largest secure container was 3x3, and it required completing a bunch of difficult tasks to obtain.
However, the smoothbore gun, a big red, had a specification of 1x4, so it couldn't fit horizontally or vertically in the secure container.
In his previous life, when Xiao Yun played the game, he often found smoothbore gun collectibles in various places in the Aerospace Base, but usually Shu Shu knife runs involved ditching the bag, filling up the large ammo rig and secure container, and then bringing a sniper rifle, which usually guaranteed a million two to three hundred thousand.
Therefore, if he usually found a smoothbore gun, Xiao Yun, in order to ditch the bag, would directly find a manhole cover or something to hide it, abandoning it.
After all, this item, risking death to take it out, was only worth 700,000.
And if he died inside, not only would he lose the million-plus profit from the material he found, but also the 450,000 entry fee and combat readiness money, which, rounded up, was equivalent to a huge loss.
The risk and reward were completely disproportionate, not to mention that if this item was sold on the exchange after taxes, it would only fetch around 500,000.
Therefore, if it were in the game of his previous life, this item was truly a piece of trash among the big red items.
However.
In this world, the situation is different.
In this world where everyone does knife runs, the value of big red materials is not calculated solely by their extraction value, but by how much they can be rented for per year.
This smoothbore gun collectible, if rented to a Museum or art gallery for a year, could fetch 700,000, and for ten years, it would be 7 million!
Moreover, there is no entry fee for restricted areas in this world, making it completely worthwhile for ordinary operatives to risk trying to bring out large materials.
Not to mention, Xiao Yun now has a super-large 62x62 secure container!
The immense space of this secure container can even fit Baksh’s blue eagle helicopter, let alone this smoothbore gun.
“This big red was found by you two. How about this, I’ll take it out first, and if you two rent it out, you each get half.”
Xiao Yun said lightly.
Although according to his team’s rules, red and gold quality materials should normally be directly handed over to him.
But Zhang Yu was also in this match, and he had contributed a lot to the team.
And Lu Xueqing’s max-level luck also contributed to finding the big red.
In Xiao Yun’s secure container, there were already two smoothbore guns, which were truly double-barreled smoothbore guns, so he didn’t lack this one.
It would be better to use it to improve the quality of life for Zhang Yu and Lu Xueqing, which would maximize its value.
After all, these two seemed to be quite short on money.
Lu Xueqing needed to save for university tuition and also spend money on her grandmother’s medical treatment. The last time Liu Shihhan mentioned it, it seemed to be a long-term treatment.
If the smoothbore gun’s rental income served as a baseline, even if they split the money each year, it should be enough for medical expenses.
And Zhang Yu, needless to say, before he started inventing, he was always living from hand to mouth.
Getting the big red’s rental income would also encourage him to do more inventing.
Xiao Yun still highly trusted Zhang Yu’s intellect; this guy was truly quite smart.
Although he was currently broke and his inventions were all makeshift versions, what if he got rich and could truly invent something that would shock even Xiao Yun?
Xiao Yun believed that with his intelligence, it was highly possible for him to achieve this.
“Eh, forget it, this thing is too valuable.”
Lu Xueqing hadn’t even responded yet, but Zhang Yu quickly waved his hand.
“We were able to survive and search in the Museum in this match all thanks to you. You should keep this smoothbore gun yourself.”
“Mhm mhm, I also think it’s better for Master to keep this smoothbore gun. After all, strictly speaking, it wasn’t obtained by our own abilities.”
Lu Xueqing also smiled faintly.
She wasn't saying this to flatter him.
After all, if it weren’t for Xiao Yun, the Asala Soldiers they encountered at the beginning of this match might have sent them back to the fountain!
And getting out safely later also depended on Xiao Yun’s strength.
“This… alright.”
Seeing them being so polite, Xiao Yun scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
At the same time, he trusted them even more in his heart.
Lu Xueqing, needless to say, had directly given him the armored vehicle battery she found last time.
And Xiao Yun had originally worried that after so many years apart, he didn’t know if Zhang Yu’s personality would have changed.
Now it seemed that no matter how Zhang Yu’s personality changed, he was still his good brother.
“Then how about this, this smoothbore gun is mine, but you two must accept the experimental data found in the underground vault earlier.”
“Alright, alright, I didn’t expect you to learn how to handle social graces too.”
Zhang Yu smiled and patted Xiao Yun’s shoulder, suddenly feeling a bit emotional.
He probably had the same thoughts as Xiao Yun at this moment.
“But if I may ask, how do we extract now? There’s only a little over five minutes left in the match. Do we pull the lever to extract?”
“Sigh, how can there be a concept of pulling a lever to extract on Baksh’s map?”
When this question came up, Xiao Yun immediately smiled faintly.
Since he entered Baksh, in which match had he ever pulled a lever to extract?
And looking at Xiao Yun’s meaningful smile, Zhang Yu was immediately puzzled.
“If we don’t pull a lever to extract, then how do we extract?”
