My Items Can Upgrade-Chapter 198 - 145: Hit the Target (54–56/101)
But the lethality is quite frightening.
You should know that it was just an ordinary wooden arrow, even the arrowhead was wooden.
"Boom!"
After three seconds, the sound of the explosion reached this side.
Many soldiers who came out from the city tower to stand guard were puzzled and looked over, because the light streak was simply too fast, and there was almost no sound of breaking through the air, they had no idea what had happened.
This is a marvel, an unreasonable marvel.
Inside the third-floor window.
Excitement flashed in Yang Yuan’s eyes: "Not bad, in the future, let’s see who still dares to say my arm crossbow is a toy?!"
He quickly went downstairs, and remade two arm crossbows of the same style using materials from the Exorcism Sculpture, handing them to Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi, who had just woken up, instructing them to put away their previous Evil-breaking Arm Crossbows and focus on gaining experience with this new arm crossbow.
As for himself, he took out the Golden Arrow without hesitation this time.
’By the way, scan this arrow too, save the model, let’s see if my printer can print the Divine Charm, I wonder if the printed Golden Arrow will have the same effect?’
A thought struck Yang Yuan, he activated the scanning function of the printer, built and saved the model, and then placed the Golden Arrow on the machine, using it as material to print parts for the new arm crossbow.
Even though after being carved into a Golden Arrow, the hardness of this gold-material arrow increased significantly, it was still within the scope of a level ten printer’s capabilities.
Soon, the parts were printed out, using only half of the material.
Then came the assembly.
[Golden Arm Crossbow lv.1: 0/5 (Golden Arm Crossbow, possesses an extremely weak divine suppression effect, but don’t take it seriously, or you’ll regret it; effective range of a hundred meters; cannot be upgraded)]
’Hiss...’
Yang Yuan took a deep breath, a bright light gleaming in his eyes.
’That Tang Song is truly a rare talent, actually able to carve out a Golden Arrow, although the divine suppression effect is a bit weak, being able to create such power means Tang Song’s abilities are definitely not simple either.’
He eagerly loaded a wooden arrow into it, wanting to upgrade this arm crossbow as soon as possible.
"Big Brother, that malicious intent has disappeared." At this moment, Jiang Yiyi came out from the back hall and said.
Zhao Jiayan followed her out: "Maybe that ’Mountain God’ can only appear at night. Such a Mountain God can only be considered within the category of spirits, even weaker than ordinary spirits, at least many ordinary spirits can appear during the day."
"Perhaps it’s due to some restriction, but we still can’t be careless."
Yang Yuan said, raising the Golden Arm Crossbow and aiming at the front wall.
But considering the initial effective range of this Golden Arm Crossbow is a hundred meters, he retracted it.
He walked over to the printer, and printed a wooden board two meters long and wide, twenty centimeters thick using ordinary wood.
"Are you preparing to make something new?" Zhao Jiayan asked curiously.
"No, I’m planning to use this as a target, to prevent the wall from getting shot to pieces."
Yang Yuan placed the thick wooden board against the corner of the wall: "You two come join me too, there’s no one outside at the moment, it seems after yesterday’s incident, no one will be going out hunting today, and work rentals might halt for a few days, this is the perfect opportunity for us to level up the arm crossbows, to be ready for any trouble that might arise."
"Yes, but do you think the Mountain God will definitely target the people of this camp?" Zhao Jiayan asked.
"Puff!"
Yang Yuan shot an arrow, deeply embedding it into the wooden board, and replied while loading another arrow: "These past days, I’ve noticed that people in this camp don’t worship that so-called Mountain God, indicating that it’s not after faith, there must be other motives."
"Can you guess what the motives might be?" Zhao Jiayan had considered various possibilities herself, but none seemed plausible.
"Small beast tides every three days, large beast tides every ten days, it almost feels like it’s raising humans here, but I suspect our line of thinking is wrong."
Yang Yuan said: "Previously, when I went to the munitions factory in this camp, I found they were rushing to produce ammo, and many boxes were nearly full. I suspect that when those boxes are filled, the beast tide will break out."
Zhao Jiayan’s heart skipped a beat: "You mean..."
"I suspect that the so-called Mountain God is using the humans here to kill the Exotic Beasts and Fierce Birds on the Mountain God Mountain," Yang Yuan answered.
Zhao Jiayan was shocked: "But why? Those Exotic Beasts and Fierce Birds are under its control, they’re like its subordinates, why would it do that?"
"Currently, I have two guesses. One is that the number of Exotic Beasts and Fierce Birds on Mountain God Mountain is too large, resources are insufficient, so the Mountain God resorts to this method to reduce their numbers."
Yang Yuan squinted and said: "As for the second possibility... it might be using human strength for a blood sacrifice, it needs blood, or life force, hoping the humans here help kill those Exotic Beasts and Fierce Birds, providing it with ’food’."
In fact, this speculation only came to him after the battle broke out in the distance the night before.
Because during that battle, there seemed to be no involvement from any malicious spirits or the Mountain God, which didn’t align with the rule of not going out at night, and those people didn’t all die.
This suggests that the Mountain God is deliberately allowing the humans to kill each other, needing something generated by their deaths.
Zhao Jiayan showed a look of disbelief: "Is this a Mountain God, or a Mountain Ghost? If this is true, once the Exotic Beasts and Fierce Birds on Mountain God Mountain are killed, then the ones doomed will be us."
