Thump!
The road knight fell off the roof of the vehicle, his body riddled with bullet holes. His eyes were wide open, and he died without understanding what had happened.
"You have completed Vic's dying revenge mission, retrieved the stolen supplies, and received the reward: White Reaper."
A white light appeared in front of Bai Ye, followed by a silver-white long case that dropped into his hands.
Bai Ye was slightly stunned. Another gun case?
Bai Ye felt like he had been encountering firearms lately. The gashapon machine kept giving him guns, and now a simple mission also yielded a gun.
However, this didn't mean Bai Ye was dissatisfied.
Firearms were good things, especially in the early stages of the World Battlefield. There were almost no weapons better than firearms.
Because, in the early stages of the World Battlefield, most people's individual strength was not yet strong enough, and they relied more on weapons. This was also why Bai Ye had decided to strengthen his physical body from the beginning. His past life experiences made Bai Ye very clear about what was needed to survive in the World Battlefield.
As a transitional weapon in the early stages, firearms were the most suitable and cost-effective.
Thinking to himself, Bai Ye opened the gun case, and his eyes suddenly became bright.
Inside the gun case was a...
Arrogant sniper rifle - Star of Finland!
Death Strike (Finnish Star TRG-42) (Blue): Known as the most precise sniper rifle in the world. Barrel length: 1200mm, Barrel length: 690mm, Magazine capacity: 10 rounds, Caliber: .338 Lapua/
Naming this gun "Death Strike" was absolutely fitting.
At the same time, items in the World Battlefield were like the capsules from the gashapon machine, with colors indicating their rarity. Although blue was not yet considered a high-level item, getting a blue sniper rifle from a casual mission was definitely good luck. Moreover, the effect of "Death Strike" was also quite good.
Full firepower meant infinite ammunition...
This effect was most applicable to machine guns and submachine guns. For a sniper rifle, it was somewhat lacking, as sniper rifles did not require frequent reloads.
However, a troublesome aspect of using firearms was ammunition reserves.
In places like the Apocalypse Ruins, finding ammunition was not difficult. But this was not the case everywhere. In areas without modern technology, ammunition would be impossible to find. Furthermore, carrying a large reserve of ammunition presented its own problems.
It was important to remember that although the "Inventory" space could hold items, supplies could not be placed in it. Even items obtained from the gashapon machine by Bai Ye could not be put into the "Inventory" space.
Therefore, infinite ammunition was valuable for any type of firearm.
As for "Fatal Camouflage," this was also easy to understand. It meant the sniper rifle came with a ghillie suit, and this effect perfectly suited a sniper rifle.
Bai Ye put away the gun and went to the vehicle containing the supplies. He transferred the items from his motorcycle into the vehicle and then drove away.
What excited Bai Ye was that the road knights had brought him a pleasant surprise.
There was an electronic map in the car.
According to the electronic map, continuing on Highway 404 would lead to a highway station with three paths: one leading to the Wasteland City, one to the Rocky Canyon, and one to a place called Lake Lijia.
Lake Lijia was the base camp of the road knights, while Bai Ye's goal was the Rocky Canyon, which led to the Wonderland region.
The World Battlefield was very mysterious, composed of countless different regions. One moment it could be ruins, and the next it could be picturesque.
This was something the natives did not know, and they could not move between regions. Only those chosen to enter the World Battlefield could traverse between different regions.
With the map, everything became simpler. Bai Ye drove along the highway, and after about a day, he passed the highway station. A large expanse of rocky mountains appeared before him, and the spaces between these mountains formed winding rocky canyons.
As Bai Ye drove to the front of the grand canyon, he could see a curtain of emerald green light. Beyond the light was a scene of flashing lightning and chaotic void, as if he had reached the end of the world.
This was the regional boundary.
Crossing this meant entering another region.
Bai Ye stopped the car, then put on his backpack, selected some easily portable food and water, and started walking forward.
The rest of the journey was not suitable for driving.
Because...
After Bai Ye crossed the regional boundary, he found himself in a forest. Tall, verdant trees towered all around. Such terrain obviously made driving impossible.
This place was Bai Ye's destination, the Wonderland region—Mount Bagong!
There were many good things to be found in the Wonderland region. Some spirit medicines had the power to revive the dead, and flying swords were also very popular. Who didn't have a dream of flying on a sword?
However, Bai Ye didn't come to Mount Bagong to fulfill a cultivation dream, but to...
Dig graves!
And the graves Bai Ye intended to dig were not ordinary ones, but ancestral graves.
Because Mount Bagong was home to the tomb of the King of Huainan.
The King of Huainan was fond of esoteric arts during his lifetime, and he had thousands of alchemists and scholars under his patronage. The famous "Huainanzi" was compiled by the King of Huainan and his retainers. In folk tales, the King of Huainan died from eating the wrong elixir, and after his death, his soul was sealed in a crimson jade pot, transforming into a vengeful ghost, trapped within the King of Huainan's tomb.
However, none of this was important. What mattered was that the King of Huainan loved to seek immortality and was also a wealthy prince. Therefore, his tomb was filled with treasures of this nature.
The Five Spirit Plate, which Bai Ye was looking for, was one of the King of Huainan's best possessions, used as a burial item by him.
Therefore, if Bai Ye wanted the Five Spirit Plate, he would naturally have to dig up the King of Huainan's grave.
