"This is..."
At the entrance to the "Haina Supernatural Store", the slightly chubby shopkeeper looked towards Chen Miao and his group with a mild shock, taking a mont to process the change. It had only been a few days, yet it felt as if they had completely traded in old guns for new artillery.
Hadn't they just been here a few days ago buying materials to craft occupational weapons for a gunman?
Today they appeared quite wealthy, with a group following behind, looking every bit a part of the well-heeled crowd.
The shopkeeper subconsciously glanced at the "Fengtian City Perfect Dungeon Clear Rankings", finding Chen Miao's na at the 367th position, having cleared dungeons perfectly twice now. No wonder...
But even with two consecutive perfect dungeon clears, he shouldn't have made so much money so quickly, right?
Without ti to ponder further, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted them with a big smile, "We've got everything, everything except coffins, but there's a coffin shop at the end of this street where you can inquire afterward."
"Co in, take a look, it's windy outside."
The shopkeeper strode into the store and laid out several protective garnts on a table.
"We have three grades of protective clothing here, F-grade, E-grade, and D-grade," he announced.
"The F-grade protective clothing can withstand a maximum energy value of 500 and is priced at 3,000 Federal Credit Points. Generally speaking, it would fall apart after a boxer's flurry of punches—it's not very durable, but it's better than nothing."
"E-grade can withstand a maximum energy value of 1000 and is priced at 10,000 Federal Credit Points."
"The D-grade can withstand a maximum energy value of 5000 and is priced at 100,000 Federal Credit Points."
"It's worth noting that as long as the protective clothing hasn't reached its maximum energy value limit, it will slowly recover. But once it exceeds that, it will shatter instantly, becoming worthless."
"Hmm."
Chen Miao gave a slight nod, looking at the three types of protective clothing on the table. They weren't actually clothes, but rather badge-like objects shaped like pentagons that could be attached to any part of the clothing and activated at any ti to form a protective light shield against damage in tis of crisis.
Very useful stuff.
He had encountered it many tis recently. Zhou Yiming had charged at him, bullet after bullet, relying on the protective clothing to reach him. Truly wonderful gear.
The energy coefficient of his Thompson Submachine Gun ranged between 6-15.
Which ans a D-grade protective clothing could roughly withstand about 500 of his bullets. Last night Zhou Yiming almost did just that; it seed he was wearing a D-grade protective garnt, worth 100,000 credit points—quite the affluent man indeed.
It seems, these days, playing a corrupt cop pays far better than being a good Samaritan.
"That's not right."
At that mont, Hungry Monkey, who stood to the side, furrowed his brow and looked up at the shopkeeper, "Your D-grade protective clothing has an energy threshold five tis higher than the E-grade, so why is it ten tis more expensive?"
"Can't I just buy 10 E-grade protective garnts and layer them?"
"Err..."
The shopkeeper gave a wry smile, "That's the market price, the sa at any shop. Although it seems like it only withstands five tis the energy, in critical monts, it can save your life."
"You can only wear one piece of protective clothing."
"Unless you buy 10 pieces and change to a new one just as the previous one is about to break."
"But... in most cases, there is no chance to switch. Generally speaking, by the ti the protective clothing breaks, the person probably won't live much longer anyway. Protective clothing isn't the main line of defense; it's the last line of defense for your life."
After pondering for a brief mont, Chen Miao spoke up, "Give two D-grade protective garnts, one E-grade, and sixteen F-grade."
"Alright."
The shopkeeper's face lit up with excitent as he picked up a calculator to tally the bill—it was no small deal, a rather significant sale.
"All together that's 258,000 credit points."
"And throw in seven Gunner Profession Inheritance Books."
```
"This one's on the house," said the owner generously with a wave of his hand, laughing. The item itself was worth next to nothing, 10 credit points a piece. The only reason his warehouse stocked these was for the off chance soone would sell back so he could add a contact thod and later sell a series of Gunner-specific props and materials.
Considering Fengtian City's city-state effect.
Big events and secret realm outputs that produced Gunman Profession materials and props had their drop rates tripled, resulting in Fengtian City simply having too many Gunner Profession Inheritance Books. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say you could find them in the garbage.
"Do you have skill books for Fighters and Gunners?"
"Yes!"
The owner nodded vigorously with a big smile, pulling a large box from under the table and placing it on top: "Here they are, all inside. These are all common skills, though. The rare skills still have to co from the secret realms and major events."
"The skill books we get are basically all common skills. The rare ones don't fall into my hands."
"I have skill books from First Turn to Third Turn. You two must be looking for First Turn ones, right?"
Both the Gunner and the Fighter are First Turn professions.
"This one."
The owner rummaged for a while and pulled out three skill books, placing them on the table: "These are three First Turn Fighter skill books. Fighters can only learn these three skills, more skills can be learned after a job transfer."
"They are—"
"F-level skill 'Silent Strike', F-level skill 'Skull Split', F-level skill 'Hell Suplex'."
"Fifty thousand per book, one hundred and fifty thousand for three."
"First Turn Gunners can also only learn these three skills. I have them all here."
"F-level skill 'Rapid Reload', F-level skill 'Eagle Eye', F-level skill 'Firepower Coverage'."
"One thousand per book, three thousand for three."
"How many do you want?"
The owner looked at Chen Miao expectantly, already planning to celebrate with a nice dinner that night. This deal was bound to make him at least 50k.
"..."
A twitch ford at the corner of Chen Miao's mouth but he said nothing. The three Gunner skills together were only 3000 credit points, yet a single Fighter's was fifty thousand?
Isn't the disparity a bit too much?
Even Hungry Monkey felt embarrassed and said quietly, "Maybe we should just forget it. I don't really need the skills, I think swinging the hamr is enough."
It was just too expensive; he felt a bit ashad to take them.
Chen Miao didn't say anything but started to read through the skill panels of these skills one by one.
The first two skills for the Gunner profession were average, one reduced reload ti, and the other increased visibility. It was the last F-level skill 'Firepower Coverage' that gradually made his expression beco strange.
