364: Synthetic safety box
【Notification: Excessive remaining safe box trial cards detected in the system backpack. Trial card synthesis function activated!】
“Trial card synthesis function?”
Xiao Yun raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised by the sudden notification in his mind.
Logically, he shouldn't have obtained new trial cards in this match.
Although there were over a hundred ordinary safe box trial cards in his backpack, almost all of them were drawn from the system mall before Xiao Yun arrived in Jinghai City, with only a few obtained from completing previous missions.
Logically, if a new function was to be activated, it should have been unlocked immediately after the previous lottery draw, right?
“Sigh, I don’t understand, I really don’t understand you, system!”
Xiao Yun sighed silently, not dwelling on it too much.
This system usually seemed to lack much intelligence, answering only what was asked, like an AI.
However, whenever certain thoughts flashed through Xiao Yun's mind, mostly when he wanted something or encountered a difficulty, the system would suddenly pop up a reminder.
But no matter what, a system that can help is a good system!
Like the current situation.
Judging by the equipment of the three Asala Soldiers he just killed, in this Eternal Night Mode Dam No. 0 match, the equipment of other Asala teams would most likely be no worse than this team's, and might even be better.
After all, the Asala team Xiao Yun just eliminated was merely stationed in the wilderness, at a pipeline construction site with few supply points.
Even such a team was wearing three-head and four-armor, carrying guns worth three to four hundred thousand, and firing level 4 bullets.
Then the teams stationed at Substations and Administrative Districts must have even better equipment!
Currently, although it appeared from the Destiny Skill screen that no teams had entered the Administrative District yet, Xiao Yun could imagine that if Seyid spawned in the Administrative Building, he would very likely be in a full six-set with a fully modified machine gun, just like Lao Tai from Confidential Aerospace, with a single gun costing nearly four to five hundred thousand even after deducting bullets.
Moreover, Prison Boss used an M24, which in his hands was completely different from in a normal person's hands; its accuracy was comparable to a sniper rifle, but its recoil was comparable to a submachine gun! When he encountered someone, he would directly lock onto their head, instantly eliminating them with a single burst.
Furthermore, if all ammunition types in this world had high-grade bullets, Seyid might even be using level 6 bullets!
If that were the case, let alone any GTI Professional Team, even Xiao Yun himself could easily be shattered by Seyid if he wasn't careful upon entering the Administrative Building!
However.
In the restricted zone, high risk also came with high reward.
If Seyid's equipment was truly as good as Xiao Yun imagined, then killing one Seyid would bring a profit of four to five million!
Although six-sets and level 6 bullets were non-tradable items in this world and could not be listed on the exchange, private auctions or similar transactions were perfectly fine.
In this situation, the only thing Xiao Yun lacked was a safe box large enough to store weapons and equipment.
And at this moment, the trial card synthesis function suddenly unlocked by the system might perfectly solve this problem.
“System, open the synthesis page.”
Xiao Yun thought inwardly, and the next second, a special panel he had never seen before appeared before his eyes.
This panel was somewhat similar to the one in his previous life's game for crafting equipment and weapons in the Special Operations Department.
However, the Technical Center, Workbench, Pharmaceutical Bench, and Armor Bench in the game had now become Rare Trial Cards, Epic Trial Cards, Legendary Trial Cards, and Mythical Trial Cards, and their function had changed from manufacturing to synthesis.
And as soon as he clicked on the synthesis page for Rare Safe Box Trial Cards, the required materials immediately made Xiao Yun sweat a little.
【Rare Safe Box Trial Card Synthesis Materials: Ordinary Safe Box Trial Card x50】
“Bro, you need 50 ordinary ones for one rare one?”
Seeing the required synthesis materials, Xiao Yun's eyelids twitched.
He originally thought that since this synthesis system was from the system, it wouldn't scam him; at most, three or five cards would synthesize into a higher-grade trial card, right? Or maybe ten cards for one?
Fifty into one, isn't this blatant money-gouging!
The hundred ordinary safe box trial cards in Xiao Yun's pocket were only enough to synthesize two Rare Trial Cards.
One must know, he could only draw once for 500,000, and he had drawn a full 50 million last time to accumulate this many!
“Sigh! I thought I had found a bug to reduce the bottomless pit of family heirlooms, and that I could save a lot of money, but I didn't expect a new bottomless pit to appear!”
Xiao Yun felt utterly helpless at this thought.
He even suspected that he might have been set up by the system.
How could a money-burning function immediately appear right after he finished researching a way to skip upgrading family heirlooms?
Fifty into one, and each draw costs 500,000, which means one Rare Safe Box Trial Card is worth 25 million. An Epic Safe Box would be 1.25 billion, and Legendary and Mythical ones are even unimaginable!
But since things were already like this, what else could he do? Synthesize!
Aside from the special abilities provided by the Rare Safe Box, Xiao Yun had no other way to take out a pile of weapons and equipment.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun suddenly remembered that he still had one Rare Safe Box Trial Card he had drawn last time in his system backpack, as well as five trial cards from completing special achievement missions, totaling five unused trial cards.
Xiao Yun searched the Rare Safe Box entries and found that out of a total of 128 special entries, there were 8 related to equipment storage.
Based on probability, drawing an entry related to equipment storage from five trial cards would be 40/128, nearly a one-third chance.
“If I'm lucky, I might not even need to synthesize!”
Xiao Yun thought silently, and with a mental command, he directly used one Rare Trial Card.
Anyway, after use, what he would get was just a trial card with a determined entry. He could use it or not depending on the situation. If it wasn't an equipment storage-related trial card, he could just save it for later use when the opportunity arose.
【Ding! Random Rare Safe Box Trial Card used successfully!】
【Obtained Item: Vending Safe Box (1-day trial card)!】
【Skill Storage: This safe box can automatically sell any supplies or combat readiness items placed within it. The price will be calculated based on the combat readiness value upon evacuation. If the item has not yet been recorded as a material by GTI, it will be appraised and sold at the market price of similar items.】
“As expected, it’s not that simple. Again!”
Saying that, Xiao Yun picked up another Rare Safe Box trial card and immediately activated it.
......
“Current Location: Zero Dam (Eternal Night) - Northwest of Substation.”
“Current Match Drop Rate: Confidential.”
“Current Game End Time: 28 minutes 32 seconds.”
“Notification: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”
Meanwhile, on the other side.
In the same match as Xiao Yun, at the northwest spawn point of the Large Substation, Song Qiuyun's team had just finished a skirmish. With all three heavily wounded and almost losing a member, they finally achieved victory in their first battle.
“That team came too fast!”
“Yeah, how did they arrive so quickly at the start? Could they be three Red Wolves?”
“Now that you mention it, I did see someone throw a smoke grenade, but… it didn’t feel quite like a Red Wolf’s smoke grenade?”
“This team is quite strong, and they cooperate very well. They didn't even make a sound until they died. Their team coordination is top-notch!”
“Good thing I was more skilled and equipped a brand-new five-set.”
“By the way, this team… could it be Xiao Yun's team?”
As the three were using armor repair kits and surgical packs, Qingshan's sudden question made Song Qiuyun and Team member Mengmeng frown instantly.
Indeed, they hadn't encountered such a difficult battle in the restricted zone for a long time. The three of them, both in coordination and marksmanship, were stronger than normal professional teams.
More importantly, Dam No. 0 was in Eternal Night, and the opponents seemed to have long been accustomed to night combat, moving with great discipline.
“I’m healed up, I’ll go take a look.”
Saying that, Song Qiuyun walked towards the nearest corpse.
However, before she could clearly see the corpse's appearance, a strange feeling arose in her heart.
The corpse always felt very out of place, as if it shouldn't be there at this moment.
Song Qiuyun, who had always had strong intuition, immediately sensed the source of this incongruity, but upon realizing it, what it brought her was endless shock, making her get goosebumps instantly!
“If this corpse in front of me were an operative, then the body should have disappeared upon death. The fact that this corpse still exists in the restricted zone means…”
Thinking of that sole possibility, Song Qiuyun's heart was instantly filled with shock!
