Chapter 232 Weird Blueprints and Steam Cores
"Would you like to take a look at this gun? This is Gaobao's latest product. It can penetrate the scales of black-scaled lizards."
As the man in leather jacket spoke, he picked up a long gun with many exposed brass gears from the stall. Finally, he opened the magazine and stuffed a bullet as thick as a thumb into it. Then he closed it and pointed it at a piece of metal next to him.
The iron plate fired a shot.
The iron plate was one centimeter thick and was actually penetrated by the gun.
"How about it? This gun is quite powerful. It only requires 30 ordinary mutated organs and comes with five bullets."
The leather-clad man said and threw the spear in his hand to Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai subconsciously caught it.
Good guy, this gun is really heavy. The barrel is also extremely thick. The whole body is made of brass. The gears are shiny and you can smell the smell of engine oil. It weighs at least three AK74s. Most people don't have the strength to actually play with it.
Not turning.
"Thank you, is there anything else?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"How about this? The latest purification potion can remove the garbage accumulated in the body and protect you from those bad dusts. One bottle only requires 10 ordinary mutated organs."
The man in leather clothes said, taking out a blue test tube from a box and recommending.
Zhang Tuohai took it into his hand, and a line of game system prompts suddenly popped up.
【Discover purification potion.】
[Tip: After entering this world, there are a lot of harmful gases in the air. These harmful gases will continue to damage your health and lower your mood.]
[Players need to drink a bottle of purification potion every 24 hours to maintain their health, otherwise there will be a certain chance that the body will mutate. 】
[Note: The longer the interval between doses, the greater the chance of mutation. 】
"Grass."
Seeing these prompts, Zhang Tuohai secretly cursed the game system for being shameless for hiding such important information.
If you can't find a merchant or don't have access to purification potions, you probably won't even know how you got tricked.
Zhang Tuohai wants this thing very much, but he knows that now, he cannot show his eagerness, otherwise, the other party will take advantage of him.
"It's okay, is there anything else good?"
"No need to introduce this kind of rubbish." Zhang Tuohai threw the brass spear in his hand onto the stall.
Although this thing is very powerful, it is too heavy and not as easy to use as my own ak74.
"It turns out that this is a big customer. It seems that I can only offer my store's treasure. What do you think of this?"
The leather-clad man took out a sheepskin scroll and handed it to Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai opened it and found that it was a list full of various things.
[High Tower Third Generation Dust Mask: 70]
[Second generation coal-fired boiler: 300]
[Red Castle Improved Steam Power Engine: 500]
[Red Fort civilian version transmission system: 400]
[Second generation rivet armor: 200]
[Red Fort steam-powered machine gun: 700]
[The first generation 50-pound smoothbore gun, comes with 5 shells: 600]
[Improved version of the tower 75mm rapid-fire gun: 900]
…
Rows and rows of strange things are listed above.
Looking at the names, Zhang Tuohai can probably understand what these are.
But aren't these things too strange?
Why do armor need rivets? Aren't they afraid of flying around?
Why do machine guns need to be powered by steam?
Why is there such a thing as a coal-fired boiler?
"etc!"
Zhang Tuohai suddenly thought of an upgrade direction when upgrading the car to level 4 - steam locomotive.
The characteristic is weird technology.
Could this world be a weird world similar to steampunk?
Thinking of this, Zhang Tuohai felt that everything was explained.
Why are cities in ruins and why are villages built of metal?
Why are there so many chimneys and steam pipes emitting black smoke in the village?
These are typical signs of the steam age.
He doesn't mind adding another power system.
Having multiple power systems means he has more options to choose from.
In the event that the world is depleted of gasoline, he can still burn coal to drive the car and continue moving forward, which is an extra way out.
However, my car is gasoline-powered, so whether it is compatible is still a question.
"My car is not coal-fired, so I'm afraid I won't be able to use these things." Zhang Tuohai expressed his doubts and at the same time stared closely into the eyes of the leather-clad man to observe his reaction.
However, the man in leather didn't show any surprise at all.
"I understand all this. The power systems of the old and new eras are incompatible. The Red Castle specially invented this thing in order to allow everyone to use the technology of the new era."
The man in leather clothes said, pointing to the end of the parchment.
"As long as we have this thing, even an airship can use these things."
Zhang Tuohai looked in the direction of the other person's finger.
[Steam core: a special type of auto accessory that can convert steam power into other power, or other power into steam power. There is a certain loss.] Price: 1000
What a good thing.
Seeing this thing, Zhang Tuohai's heart moved. If he had this thing, he could freely add various unique steampunk drawings to the car, and maybe he could also develop it with two technology trees.
In this apocalyptic world, the more comprehensive you are prepared, the greater your chance of survival, because you don't know what can save your life on a specific occasion.
"How is this price calculated?"
Zhang Tuohai was moved.
"The number at the end is the number of mutated organs required." The man in leather said with a smile.
"So many." Zhang Tuohai was shocked.
He glanced at the steam core. If he wanted to change to this thing, wouldn't he have to kill a thousand monsters?
Not to mention how much ammunition it takes to destroy these monsters, just finding these monsters is a huge hassle.
He had killed about ten monsters in just over an hour.
Based on this calculation, it will take at least 100 hours to put it all together.
More than four days.
Where does he have so much time to kill so many monsters?
Seeing Zhang Tuohai's expression not looking good, the man in leather clothes smiled.
"Dear guest, are you worried about not being able to find a suitable monster? Don't worry, I have another commission here. If you can complete it, you will not only get a huge bounty, but also a lot of mutations.
organ."
The man in leather clothes said.
"What commission?"
Zhang Tuohai asked.
"The valley on the east side of the village was originally a mining field, but it was occupied by a group of sickle monsters. If you can eliminate them, you will receive a high bounty provided by the village: 500 kilograms of iron ore, 200 kilograms of meat, and 10 kilograms of meat.
Clean water, and the village chief’s most beautiful concubine.”
