Su Xiao picked up the [Duke of Extinction] from the table, this sniper cannon was replaced by a certain high-tier Contractor, with enhancement level, gem inlay, etc., all meticulously crafted.

The description of [Duke of Extinction] is extensive, but the effect is actually simple. Firstly, when Su Xiao is more than 500 meters away from the enemy, he can activate the lock-on feature, and the next bullet can lock onto any position on the enemy’s body, with a bullet tracking function.

Although this is the case, there is no need to consider the lock-on position, it is bound to be the head, the headshot damage of this thing is too terrifying. Su Xiao seriously suspects that if he takes a shot to the head without activating a shield, even if he is not instantly killed, he will be directly in a severely injured brink-of-death state. Moreover, this thing is very likely to kill him with one shot.

The advantages of [Duke of Extinction] are threefold: bullet tracking, terrifying weapon attack power, and the ’Balance’ golden gem inlay effect, firearms skill tier +1 (below specialization level).

Su Xiao currently has Firearms Proficiency Lv.30. If he equips the [Duke of Extinction], his basic firearms ability will elevate to Firearms Specialization Lv.30, with a 49% increase in firearms weapon attack power, among other abilities.

Regarding firearms capabilities, Su Xiao has no plans to invest more resources, as reaching the specialization level is already a pleasant surprise.

Sword Technique Master has almost led Su Xiao to bankruptcy; the cost of upgrading beyond Lv.40 has reached an exaggerated level, not to mention the consumption of Paradise coins, just the 10 large Soul Crystals needed for each level, which already takes significant time to accumulate.

If these ten large Soul Crystals were exchanged for equipment, Su Xiao could certainly obtain many golden or golden suits of equipment, even purchase a set of golden gear altogether.

But as Su Xiao’s strength continues to grow, the day will come when the golden set needs replacement, but Sword Technique Master is different; it’s Su Xiao’s inherent ability that never needs replacement, each level of enhancement is permanent, whereas equipment is external ability, they will never develop at the same pace.

Put simply, the powerful equipment Su Xiao obtained now serves the early stage, except Dragon Slash and Fate Redemption, the Sword Technique Master is an ability that can be used permanently.

Lv.40 Sword Technique Master already exceeds Su Xiao’s current capability by much, even if he doesn’t enhance it from now until Fourth Tier elevation, Sword Technique Master still remains powerful, still one of his core combat capabilities.

Su Xiao isn’t in a hurry to upgrade Sword Technique Master for the time being, just storing large Soul Crystals suffices, since his other abilities do not consume Soul Crystals.

Looking at the sniper cannon before him, more than 95% of Contractors would believe it if Su Xiao says he’s a long-range sniper.

The power of [Duke of Extinction] is undeniable, but... its ammunition is too expensive, 19.67mm basic ammo costs 1000 Paradise coin per round, whereas special ammo with attributes costs 1500 points.

Su Xiao finally understands why Vini from the Travel Group’s sniper cannon feels soul-crushing pain every time she fires a shot; a high-power sniper rifle is essentially blasting enemies with Paradise coins.

No hurry to replenish ammunition, 10~15 rounds per Derivative World are sufficient, slackers simply aren’t qualified to be sniped by [Duke of Extinction].

Su Xiao got up and walked outside, while Bu Bu Wang continued to sow chaos in the Commercial Street. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Fifteen minutes later, Su Xiao returned to his exclusive room. He sat before an antique wooden table with Dragon Slash laid flat on it, surrounded by five light golden long knives and one light golden dagger.

Su Xiao activated Supreme Blade Ability, a black glow emerged in his hand. The glow enveloped the six light golden weapons.

Kaka kaka...

The six light golden weapons enveloped by the black glow emitted a series of crunching sounds; these weapons were being disintegrated back into their initial form.

Dozens of seconds later, a wisp of light golden crystal shard floated out from within the glow, the essence of the six light golden weapons. This essence floated towards Dragon Slash, swiftly merging within it.

Golden light enveloped Dragon Slash, turning it resplendent; it seemed as though just a glimpse would get you injured by Dragon Slash’s blade edge.

The golden light grew more dazzling, soon obscuring the interior of Dragon Slash; Su Xiao had witnessed this several times before during Dragon Slash’s elevation — it appears the six light golden weapons are sufficient for Dragon Slash’s upgrade, perhaps even surplus.

The higher Dragon Slash’s elevates, the longer the upgrade time; Su Xiao simply picked up [Duke of Extinction] for dismantling and routine maintenance.

The [Duke of Extinction] is exceptionally precise, but Su Xiao now boasts Firearms Specialization Lv.30, significantly enhancing his firearms knowledge.

The intricately constructed [Duke of Extinction] was dismantled by Su Xiao into 107 parts, the most precision-demanding segment being at the connection of the scope — merely there, it comprised of over 70 parts.

The total weight of [Duke of Extinction] is 145 kilograms, nearly 300 pounds heavy; if Su Xiao didn’t possess 82 points in True Strength Attribute, he couldn’t even hold it to snipe enemies.

Initially, [Duke of Extinction] wasn’t designed for human use — it’s a super-heavy sniper cannon to be mounted on city walls, requiring mecha wear to resist its formidable recoil. Stabilization rigs must have kinetic shock absorbers, or mecha alone couldn’t withstand the full extent of its recoil. Its target is a Demon Winged Dragon over 80 meters in length.

Overall, this isn’t merely a gun, but a city-defense cannon with super-heavy sniper cannon specifications, capable of piercing through 4 meters thick of special alloy plates in a single shot.

Yet now, Su Xiao plans to use it to snipe enemy Contractors or storyline creatures; recoil-wise, he couldn’t care less — with 82 points in both True Strength Attribute and True Stamina Attribute, he can entirely ignore this item’s recoil.

Regarding fitting [Duke of Extinction] with a silencer, forget about it, any silencer below light golden quality would assuredly break after one shot.

After maintaining [Duke of Extinction], Su Xiao reassembled it — dismantling and reassembling is the best way to understand a gun.

Just as he finished assembling [Duke of Extinction], the golden light on Dragon Slash faded away.

Su Xiao grasped the hilt of Dragon Slash; the feel of it hasn’t changed, yet the entire sword presents an entirely different perception.

Without checking Dragon Slash’s attributes, Su Xiao once again activated Supreme Blade Ability, a dark radiance appearing in his hand.

Simultaneously, he extracted two Demon Scythes from the storage space, [Demon Scythe · Habo Diya].

"Are you planning to choke me to death!"

The irate voice of Demon Scythe · Habo Diya echoed in Su Xiao’s mind as the scythe communicated through consciousness.

"I was rather busy before, now I’m letting you out for some fresh air."

Su Xiao’s right hand surged with dark glow as he seized the two Demon Scythes.

"I’d rather...continue staying locked away."

The tone of Demon Scythe · Habo Diya, which was once arrogant, now trembled entirely.
