Don't Starve, my items can be upgraded

Chapter 76 Gauss Invisible Nail Gun (Part )
[Gauss Invisible Nail Gun lv.21: 0% (crosshair; integrated into the arm; no recoil; fast reload; effective range 10 km, maximum range 30 km)]

After the original [Invisible Nail Gun] completed its transformation, its name became [Gauss Invisible Nail Gun].

Although the range was not doubled this time, an additional function was added.

[Quick Refill], this function is not a real refill.

Yang Chen sensed it carefully and discovered that this function was actually [Making Bullets].

Or rather, making nails.

Put a piece of metal of similar size into the nail gun, and then consume the power of evolution or directly consume the spirit to shape it into the shape of a nail.

The speed is not fast, it takes about one minute to make one nail.

But this completely solves the problem that the nails become waste once they are used up.

Yang Chen was somewhat surprised. Now he no longer had to worry about running out of nails.

Although he still has more than 9,000 nails in reserve, they will run out sooner or later. This new function has solved his worries.

In addition, the effective range became ten kilometers, and the maximum range reached thirty kilometers, which is much stronger than before.

And this time the upgrade is more than just the nail gun.

Because his evolutionary level had reached the second level, Yang Chen discovered that his spirit had indeed changed as it evolved towards super evolution.

First of all, the spiritual core space has become more stable, and its diameter has increased from 100 meters to 130 meters.

Secondly, the tombstone, which was originally only six meters high, became eight meters high, four meters wide and two meters thick.

These are clear manifestations of spiritual super evolution.

The range of the mental power extending outward suddenly reached a radius of forty meters.

This is definitely a huge improvement.

From this we can see that the gap between the first order and the second order is indeed very large.

However, there are still only twelve tombstones.

Regarding this, Yang Chen didn’t know the reason, and didn’t know how to increase the number of tombstones.

"Does it need to absorb the power of evil spirits like before to increase it?"

This thought flashed through his mind, and then he looked at Peng Min: "Get ready, I will help you upgrade to the second level."

Peng Min's body trembled and she nodded quickly.

Yang Chen reminded: “Eat the ferocious bird meat first this time. If the digestion speed can’t keep up, then eat the marbling meat.”

"Ok."

Peng Min immediately took out the ferocious bird meat from her inner space. Because she was responsible for cooking the food, Yang Chen gave her a portion to carry.

Seeing Peng Min start to eat the raw meat of the ferocious bird, Yang Chen once again injected derivative Qi into her body.

This time, as soon as the second-level derivative energy entered Peng Min's body, Peng Min immediately felt the previous feeling of hunger reappear.

This time, the hunger was even stronger, and the ferocious bird meat he had just eaten was digested in the blink of an eye.

She looked at Yang Chen hesitantly, “I don’t have much ferocious bird meat left. I think it will be eaten up soon, and it will definitely not be enough for me to break through.”

"Then continue eating the marinated meat after you finish it. Don't be frugal at this time."

Yang Chen also took out the remaining dozen kilograms of ferocious bird meat. Although it hurt, he said very firmly: “After we become stronger, it will definitely be easier to find food.”

He firmly believed that since he had not starved to death when he was an ordinary person, he would not starve to death after becoming an evolver.

"Ok."

Peng Min had never doubted Yang Chen's words, and at the same time she began to have confidence in herself. Upon hearing this, she immediately continued to eat with big mouthfuls.

As more and more food was digested, her physical fitness became stronger and stronger, and her five senses also increased rapidly.

However, what surprised her was that this time, with the upgrade of the evolutionary level, the amount of evolutionary power did not increase, but its quality increased.

The difference between her and Yang Chen was that Yang Chen needed to wait until he woke up, but she didn’t.

Under the continuous catalysis of the derivative Qi, her advancement became more rapid.

Before long, she had finished eating all the meat of the ferocious birds, and she immediately began to take out the marinated meat and eat it in big mouthfuls.

Because evolution means optimization, so in Yang Chen's vision, Peng Min, who already had a good appearance, had more delicate features, a slimmer and more curvy figure, and more perfect lines.

In just over an hour, Peng Min's promotion was completed.

"I'm almost done with the marbled meat here. Although I can still improve it, I think I can stop now."

Peng Min said: "Although I have no doubt that we are now more capable of finding food, we still have to be prepared and save some food for emergency use."

In particular, marbled meat is not only food, but also war supplies that can be used to quickly restore evolutionary power.

"Alright."

Yang Chen immediately stopped transmitting the derivative energy: "Hurry up and familiarize yourself with the power of the second level. If nothing unexpected happens, we will leave here tonight." "Okay."

Peng Min immediately sensed his own situation quickly: "My spatial layers are still the same as when I reached the first level limit, which is still thirty-six layers, but my defense has been greatly improved. Now my perception range has extended to more than thirty meters, and my physical fitness has also improved greatly."

Yang Chen nodded: "Remember not to spread the space barrier outside, just protect the shelter."

As he spoke, he took out the rare arm guard he got from Jinlun, absorbed the energy from the crystallized bone marrow again, and began to strengthen the arm guard.

The function of this arm guard is to input energy and spirit to create an air shield with very strong defensive power.

They must leave here tonight, so it would be better to add another layer of defense just in case.

He still has about four thousand pieces of crystallized bone marrow full of energy in his body, and the speed at which he produces derivative qi has also greatly increased.

If all goes well, perhaps tonight, I can fill up the progress bar for the level 27 magic shield.

This rare arm guard was dropped from a monster. As a rare monster item, the cost of using it is very high.

According to the data shown, once the progress bar is full, the usage cost can be deleted.

Although the level of the arm guard will drop from level 27 to level 24, the defense may also be weakened.

But as long as you can remove the usage cost, it is worth it.

During this process, he divided his mind and used his mental power to observe the two metal boxes inside the space folding bag.

One of the metal boxes completely isolates mental power. Even now, when he is already a second-level evolver and has super-evolved mental power, he is unable to penetrate the box.

Yang Chen studied it carefully, but found that he had no idea how to open the box.

"This is definitely a good thing. It doesn't matter if I can't open it now. At worst, I can refine it. After the data is generated, I will definitely be able to open it."

He turned to look at another metal box.

This metal box is much more ordinary, just an ordinary metal box.

What was stored inside was somewhat beyond his expectations; it was actually a whole box of papers.

Or... research data?
Because his mental power penetrated the box and scanned the text on the papers, he discovered densely packed data and text.

He was confused by the large number of special terms in it.

He recognized almost all the words on the paper, but when they were put together, he couldn't understand them at all.

But his comprehension ability was not bad. After some guessing, he could roughly figure out that -

The information recorded on these papers seems to be about the reactions that would occur when objects of different sizes move at different speeds in the atmosphere.

"Hmm? This... ordinary metal will glow when it moves at a speed of ten kilometers per second in the atmosphere?"

After seeing this description, Yang Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

Because the nails shot out by his [Gauss Invisible Nail Gun] should now reach a speed of ten kilometers per second, or even exceed ten kilometers per second.

In other words, when you shoot nails now, they will have a trajectory.

In this way, one's position will be easily exposed.

However, it seems that the impact is not that big, because with the terrifying power of today's nail guns, the nails shot out will produce gas explosion sounds and sharp whistling sounds.

Even if there is no ballistic trajectory, your position is easily exposed, so the impact is not significant.

"Boom boom boom..."

At this time, another battle broke out in the distance, probably because another hidden person was found out.

But the noise appeared quickly and stopped quickly, probably because the person who was found was dealt with.

This made Yang Chen feel even more solemn, because there were more drones outside, conducting a carpet search.

From time to time, you can see drones emitting infrared rays flying overhead.

There were even some moving metal humanoids, passing by with things in their hands.

Yang Chen didn’t know what those moving humanoid metal things were; they looked like monsters.

However, Peng Min's space barrier was very powerful and they were never discovered.

Time passed little by little, and when the two were hungry, they ate marinated meat to fill their stomachs, but in order to be prepared for unexpected situations, they did not sleep.

Anyway, they are all second-level evolvers now, so not sleeping for a few days won’t have much impact.

When I was an ordinary person in the past, I could go without sleep for three days and three nights, let alone now.

The consumption of the twenty-seventh-level monster items is too great.

Finally, after night fell, when there were only about two thousand pieces of crystallized bone marrow left, the progress bar of the arm guard was filled up.

But at this moment, an unexpected factor emerged.

Peng Min said nervously, "That Kunwu Mo is coming over here. I sensed the power of space from him. He might also sense my space barrier."
