Whether it was the battle they had just witnessed or the fact that they were scared shitless during the battle, right now the three had a better resolve.
Determination flashed through their steady pupils, and a cool rush of adrenaline flowed through their veins.
The environment became clearer to them and they easily noticed their opponents position, their advantages and disadvantages.
Yufei and X glanced at each other and at the same time nodded to each other before dashing into the horde of zombies.
Banjo shot rounds after rounds of bullets, Yufei killed her way through with her sai, stabbing into the heads of the zombies.
While X was like a follow up assistant as she killed the stray zombies around Yufei using her whip to pull off their heads.
Banjo stood on the same spot, the only thing moving were his arms and eyes, everything else paused completely, and surprisingly he still kept on shooting the zombies like he knew their exact spot.
Two weeks ago during one of their daily hunts Banjo unlocked his real skill while trying to make no movement but have accurate aim and target.
He would never had taught that while he was trying this alongside with his eagles eyes skill, he would be able to awaken his real skill.
[Motionless Blindspot(level 1 active); user when using this skill has no blindspot, as user himself will be his own blindspot.
User can see anything that enters around ten meters of the user.]
As long as he doesn't move his body except his eyes and arms, he basically has no blindspot.
As well as Yufei whose skill was controlling sand, but at the moment the best she can do with it is to conjure dust.
As for X, she bought a visual illusion skill, with the thought that if she was able to fool her opponents ears along with their sight it should be formidable, in the hands of an assassin like her.
They kept on clearing the horde of zombies tirelessly.
At this moment Tang Zhan found himself in a familiar place, the dealers shop. He was placed in front of a shelf that housed weapons at the level five alone.
"so this is the reward it stated, a level five weapon pick... but just before I pick, dealer can I sell my own creations?"
"oh! yes you can"
Tang Zhan removed the gauntlet from his hand and presented it in the air, and soon after a scanning panel appeared and scanned the black gauntlet.
[Weapon name: Flame emitter.
attributes: fire.
power: scaling.
durability: 300/300.
level: 7.
The gauntlet is of the flame attribute, which means pyromancer's should be able to use it. Attributed weapons starts from level five upwards. Weapon power scaling means it doesn't have a fixed damage, the higher the user's mana output the higher the damage.]
"wha-" just as Tang Zhan was about to complain
about not seeing the price, the system displayed
the price to him.
[price: 100,000 killer points]
*cough*
As he saw the price he wanted to yell out in exclamation but instead choked on his spit. Hitting his chest and swallowing air, he managed to get the stuck saliva out of his throat.
'the price of the gauntlet is really high, with this I can sponsor the group by creating more of this... the only problem is the amount of shadow energy that is needed to make this thing' Tang Zhan thought as he looked at his energy levels.
[energy: 104/804]
'my maximum energy was at one thousand three hundred and sixteen, but now it is already eight hundred and four,'
After thinking it through his shadow seems to have been made for physical contact and use connected to his body, but to have created something physical that doesn't have to be connected with him.
In other words creating weapons and other physical things takes his shadow essence, and with the amount of energy he has he would only be able to create two more, and after that he would no longer have any shadow.
'i need to find another way of increasing my energy other than leveling up!'
"sell flame emitter gauntlet!"
[Gauntlet sold for 100,000 killer points]
[killer points: 101,220]
"what is the highest level of weapons you sell?" Tang Zhan questioned the dealers system.
[you still haven't picked your level five weapon!]
"give me the points for it"
[average level five weapon killer points given to Tang Zhan]
[killer points: 109,220]
"now show me your highest level of weapons!"
The shelf began shuffling again, items rolling in and out, and after a while glittering lights filled the area, while Tang Zhan checked them up.
[Level 10 despair sword.
price: 50,000 killer points.
Attributes: aura of fear, killing intent, cauterize.]
"hmm nice sword, it should be good for Yufei" he said while walking towards the next weapon.
[Level 10 Glove gun.
price: 30,000 killer points.
Attributes: sensor lock, sniping shot, lightning reflex.]
"I'm definitely giving this to Banjo... hmm what would that girl X like"
Tang Zhan stood with his hand rubbing his chin while trying to think of a suitable weapon for X.
"considering the fact that she's an assassin, she should be using weapons like dagger or shortsword, but she also had throwing knives and her looks tells me she likes something that can coil around her"
Tang Zhan said and began searching for weapon that had the flexibility to coil around the body of a person.
[Level 10 ribbon whip.
price: 35,000 killer points.
Attributes: poison, healing, confusion, killing intent, stun.]
[Level 10 sawed chain.
price: 30,000 killer points.
Attributes: limb excursion, ultimate sculptor]
"I would like to think about which one to pick, but time is against me"
Tang Zhan took the weapons he had picked but didn't pay for it yet, the dealer wasn't worried about this after all this was it's domain, it can easily beat Tang Zhan.
Heading to the consumables section, he started looking through the items, and finally he took one healing potion, that costs two thousand killer points each.
The healing potion was different from the one they had bought before, but it had the same use. That one was to restore full HP only if HP was not above fifty, unfortunately Tang Zhan's hp was in the hundred and twenties.
That was why he chose the one that costs two thousand killer points since it restored HP that are not above three hundred.
Tang Zhan after purchasing the potion, drank it immediately.
[HP: 12/128]
[HP: restoring]
[HP: 128/128]
'Now what to do with my energy, hmm!...' Tang Zhan quickly scanned through everything while appearing to be in deep thoughts.
Finally after escaping his stunned state, he checked the shelve again and dip his hand into it not even waiting for it to shuffle.
He then brought out two vials he had picked, raising his hand up along with the bottles.
"dealer! give me four of this black one"
The dealer didn't reply immediately, and silence persisted for more than ten seconds, until the deep voice of the dealer echoed, and along with the echo sound, another sound came from before him.
A creaking sound of old furniture, while the shelve split open like an elevator, in the middle of the split was a slab of stone on a long rock.
Smokey hands appeared and began typing on the stone slab, when the hand disappeared Tang Zhan took a closer look at the slab and saw the words the smokey hands had typed.
'valuables'.
