47: Some brothers, some

“No.”

“Hey, rejecting me so readily?!”

Liu Shihhan was a bit stunned.

“But never mind, I was just asking casually. I didn’t have the driver pick you up specifically because I wanted to team up with you, you know.”

With that, Liu Shihhan hummed lightly, turned her head, and walked towards Nine Warehouse by herself.

“This school beauty… why do I feel like I don’t understand her?”

Xiao Yun scratched his head, completely clueless about what she wanted to do.

Logically speaking, with Liu Shihhan’s conditions, she shouldn’t need him to carry her, right?

Even if she didn't need an escort, there were plenty of experts queuing up to carry her for free.

And after he refused, she walked away very decisively.

It was just as she said, as if it was merely a casual suggestion.

“Forget it, I won’t think about it so much.”

Xiao Yun sighed.

Currently, he had no intention of forming a team.

After all, running solo allowed him to collect all the resources in the surrounding area.

What’s more, he had a hundred-slot secure container.

Even if he died, he could take all his supplies out, unlike others.

If others died in the restricted zone, they would lose all their equipment.

Xiao Yun first went to the Exchange at Warehouse Seven.

He emptied everything from his secure container, selling it for a total of about 800,000, bringing his bank balance to 900,000.

Of course, the design blueprints, gold coins, little red, and military missile computer he had picked up in previous matches were not sold directly by Xiao Yun.

Instead, they were stored at the bottom of his secure container, as this was the safest place.

After a slight adjustment, the system would no longer calculate the value of these acquired materials, though they still occupied a few slots in the secure container.

“Although the secure container is convenient, it would be great if there was a warehouse system.”

Xiao Yun couldn't help but miss the large warehouse in the game.

Although the warehouse was often full, he really couldn't do without it.

“Hint: There is, Host, there is.”

“Hint: Such a useful warehouse, of course, isn't only in the game!”

“Hint: As long as you continue to upgrade the family heirloom, after upgrading it to Level 100, you can unlock other types of family heirlooms.”

Hearing the system’s prompt, Xiao Yun was immediately surprised.

He didn’t expect there really was one! This system is quite good at hiding things!

“Does that mean the next family heirloom to be unlocked is a large warehouse?”

And when Xiao Yun asked this question,

A brand new system panel suddenly appeared before his eyes.

“Current unlockable family heirloom list: Special Earphone Hearing Head, G18c Improved Version, Elite Tactical Ammo Rig, Special Operations Manufacturing Department, Tactical Warehouse.”

“So luxurious?”

Seeing the family heirlooms displayed on the panel, Xiao Yun became increasingly tempted.

Moreover, according to the system's description, these were just the currently unlockable family heirlooms.

This meant that in the future, there might be even more types!

Without another word, Xiao Yun once again queued up at the Exchange, preparing to purchase upgrade materials for the family heirloom military dagger.

Based on previous experience, upgrading from Level 1 to Level 5 used a total of 1+3+5+7, which is 16 copper coins.

As for gold coins, Xiao Yun had already earned 9 through his Gunfire Negotiation skill.

He only needed to buy 16 more silver coins and 7 more gold coins to upgrade the military dagger to Level 15.

“Total consumption: 567,853 yuan! Thank you for your purchase.”

The trader packaged the items and handed them to Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun quickly found a secluded corner and began upgrading his family heirloom.

“Ding! Upgrade successful!”

“military dagger

Type: family heirloom

Level: 10

Damage: 30

Movement Speed Bonus: 20%

Attack Speed: Fast

Attack Range: Extremely Short

Special Skill: None

Upgrade Requirement: Gold Coin x1”

The silver coins were used up.

As Xiao Yun had expected, the next upgrade consumption would be gold coins.

“Ding! Upgrade successful!”

“military dagger

Type: family heirloom

Level: 15

Damage: 40

Movement Speed Bonus: 20%

Attack Speed: Fast

Attack Range: Extremely Short

Special Skill: None

Upgrade Requirement: Asala Special Goblet x1”

Upgrade complete.

The damage of the family heirloom military dagger had already reached an absurd 40 points.

What does 40 points of damage mean?

The T0-tier divine gun M7 in the game only has 38 points of damage.

If you only look at damage and not attack frequency, this mere Level 15 family heirloom military dagger's damage is more terrifying than the M7!

And the military dagger's movement speed bonus also directly increased to 20%.

A 20% acceleration is enough to perfectly offset the deceleration effect of heavy armor like Five-Head Five-Armor!

And what surprised Xiao Yun even more was that,

After Level 15, it only needed goblets to continue upgrading.

He had originally prepared to use grandfather clocks for later upgrades, but using goblets was much more economical.

“Let’s upgrade next time.”

Xiao Yun sighed.

Although he also wanted to directly upgrade the family heirloom military dagger to Level 100, his financial situation didn't allow it!

Upgrading to Level 15, plus the copper coins he bought earlier, cost him 600,000.

He had no idea how much more it would cost to upgrade to Level 100.

“Still, I need to earn more money.”

Looking at the more than 300,000 remaining in his account, Xiao Yun’s mood was complex.

Earning money by running a military dagger in the restricted zone was fast, but spending it was also fast.

However, these investments were worth it for earning more money in the future.

After all, the family heirloom upgrades permanent attributes, and they won't be lost even if he dies.

This was much more cost-effective than buying full-modded guns for five sets.

And Xiao Yun’s next plan

was to rent a small yacht and then start ferrying consecutive losses between the two restricted zones.

He glanced at the time; it was 1:05 PM.

The new rounds in both restricted zones had just started.

“If I’m fast, I can get it done in just 3 hours.”

“Try to complete the mission before 4 o’clock!”

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun immediately began to act.

...

“Hint: Bounty Hunter Trait activated!”

“Dancing Girl, Pirate Telescope have been placed in the Bounty Chest!”

“Current consecutive losses: 2”

“Asala Fashion Weekly, Mocha Coffee Pot have been placed in the Bounty Chest!”

“Current consecutive losses: 3”

“Data: Military Intelligence, Signal Flare have been placed in the Bounty Chest!”

“Current consecutive losses: 4”

“High-Power Crushing Pliers, GS5 Handle have been placed in the Bounty Chest!”

“Current consecutive losses: 5”

...

An hour later.

Xiao Yun traveled back and forth between the two restricted zones, throwing a magnetic bomb at his feet as soon as he entered, then falling asleep.

Since the restricted zone opened every half hour, two rounds per hour, and Xiao Yun was farming between two restricted zones, plus the previous loss, he quickly reached 5 consecutive losses.

After four consecutive losses, the Bounty Hunter Trait began to drop purple items.

It was estimated that after six consecutive losses, it would start dropping small gold items.

“Keep it up!”

Xiao Yun cheered himself on; this was clearly a difficult challenge.

The operation was very easy and simple, but the difficulty lay in racing against time.

“Boss, stop cheering yourself on, you should cheer on the yacht instead!”

“After a few round trips, the fuel is almost empty. We need to dock for a while to refuel.”

“And with you running back and forth like this, even the yacht is tired. Aren't you tired?”

The yacht driver complained.

He had been driving boats for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen someone running back and forth like this!

The problem was, you weren't transporting goods or people, just running dry.

Are you really training the yacht?

“You’re right, the yacht needs refueling, I forgot about that!”

Xiao Yun suddenly realized this, which would delay him a lot.

“So what do we do? Should we dock by the shore for a while?”

“It’s simple, I’ll just charter another one, won’t I?”
