Chapter 4 Upgrade Complete: Alloy Air Pressure Slingshot
In the evening, Jiang Xun slowly woke up from his bed in the bedroom.
The drowsiness in my brain has completely subsided, and the fatigue caused by the previous high level of mental tension has also subsided to a great extent.
If you could order a braised pork trotter rice, a fried chicken, and a large bottle of ice-cold cola at this moment, that would be an extremely generous thing.
But now...
Jiang Xun shook his head helplessly, then got up and went into the restroom.
The power system was completely cut off two days ago, and we don't know when the water supply will be cut off.
Jiang Xun, feeling hungry, went to the bathroom and took a good shower.
He washed all the sweat off his body and then went back to the living room door.
Through the peephole, Jiang Xun saw that the zombies outside the door, as well as the three zombie corpses he had killed earlier, had all disappeared.
Now, besides the three skeletons, all that remains outside the stairwell is the blood that still lingers on the ground.
Jiang Xun didn't look outside for long. After a quick glance, his attention returned to the system.
[Ding, congratulations host, your natal weapon has been successfully upgraded.]
[Main Weapon: Alloy Air Pressure Slingshot, Weapon Grade: F, Weapon Damage: E]
[Weapon effect: Air pressure can be accumulated in the slingshot, up to a maximum of 10 units. When fired, the air pressure is released along with the slingshot bullet, greatly increasing the bullet's lethality.]
After reading the system's introduction, Jiang Xun's eyes widened immediately.
With a thought, the slingshot that was originally stored in the system instantly appeared in his palm.
That simple slingshot, originally made with just pliers and rubber bands, has long since disappeared.
Instead, there is a high-end slingshot that feels smooth to the touch, exudes a black metallic aura, and gleams with a cold light.
Jiang Xun didn't know much about slingshots and had never collected any before.
Even so, when he first saw the slingshot, he was immediately captivated by its cold, shiny black body.
Is this... is this still the same incredibly rudimentary slingshot I used to have?
I really want to try out its power.
Thinking of this, he quickly went to the window.
The sky had already darkened, and things outside were gradually disappearing into darkness. However, even so, with the help of the faint light, he could still see the zombies wandering back and forth downstairs.
He was on the 5th floor. Based on the average 3-meter height of a residential building, he was about 15 meters above the ground.
This distance is neither long nor short.
He took out a steel nail from the space, then immediately drew the bow and nocked a slingshot, which was pulled straight up.
Using the crack in the window, Jiang Xun locked his sights firmly onto the head of a zombie.
"You...go to hell."
He suddenly released his right hand, and the steel spikes on the slingshot flew violently towards the zombies...
It's all gone~~~
Why? System, isn't my talent "Shooting"? Why am I missing?
[Host's current physical condition: E-, Host's potential: Shooting]
His physique changed from E to E-, which was probably due to being too hungry. Of course, the system was probably trying to express the next entry.
[Potential: Shooting]
Therefore, shooting is not his skill, but rather his potential.
Jiang Xun was not angry; he accepted the situation in just 10 seconds.
Potential is potential, it's better than having no ability at all.
Now he has neither work to do nor a scumbag woman to appease, and he's not in a hurry to take revenge on his enemies. He has plenty of time to practice shooting.
So he raised his hand, drew his bow, and fired another steel nail.
This time it was a little closer. Was it because of the force used, or was the accuracy off?
Jiang Xun lowered his hand slightly, and then another steel nail shot out.
After firing more than 20 steel nails in succession, he finally managed to shoot one into the zombie's head. However, after that, the zombie just howled loudly for a long time, and then, unable to find a target, it began to wander around aimlessly again.
Although it did not die on the spot, Jiang Xun could see that its swaying gait was far less steady than before.
Very good, it works, but the power is still too weak.
To kill someone with a single blow, my current E-level stamina is not enough.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xun recalled what the system had said earlier: air pressure could be accumulated in the slingshot, with a maximum accumulation of 10 units. When firing, the air pressure would be released along with the slingshot bullet, greatly increasing the bullet's lethality.
Therefore, Jiang Xun reversed the slingshot and immediately saw a propulsion device similar to a syringe at the tail end of the slingshot.
Could this be... the so-called air pressure device on the slingshot?
As he thought about it, he reached out and repeatedly pulled out and pushed the propulsion device. Streams of air flowed into the slingshot under his mechanical operation and were then stored inside.
After a full 20 minutes of repeated attempts by Jiang Xun, three green lights finally lit up on the slingshot handle.
This means that the slingshot can fire three pressurized bullets at this moment.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't want to fully pressurize the slingshot in one go, but that he really didn't have the strength.
He was so hungry that he had absolutely no strength left in his body.
How much food do I have left? I think I have about four packs of instant noodles.
With a thought flashing through his mind, Jiang Xun took out a bag of instant noodles from his own space, slowly tore open the bag, and put the noodles and seasoning into a bowl.
Gently pour hot water into the bowl, making sure the water covers the rim of the bowl as much as possible.
When extremely hungry, noodle soup can be a lifesaver.
After soaking the instant noodles for only 3 minutes, Jiang Xun couldn't wait to open the container.
It was a steaming bowl of instant noodles. He looked at the white noodles in the bowl, along with the glistening oily broth.
Saliva began to flow freely from his mouth.
The most ordinary and commonplace items have become incredibly delicious at this moment.
Without hesitation, Jiang Xun ate the instant noodles in the bowl in big mouthfuls.
He didn't forget to swallow the whole large bowl of noodle soup.
As the two entered his stomach, an overwhelming feeling of fullness finally erupted, and the sourness caused by prolonged hunger vanished instantly.
"Wow~~~~ That feels so good."
Jiang Xun touched his mouth, then brought up the system and looked at his panel again.
His constitution finally changed back from E- to E.
Okay, okay, his energy has finally returned for now. He has three packs of instant noodles left, enough to last him for three more days at most. In these three days, he must make the most of his "shooting" potential.
Only with the ability to protect himself could he go out to find supplies.
Staying stuck in the past will only lead to certain death; going out to find supplies is the only way forward.
At this moment, Jiang Xun was thinking to himself, just as he was about to return to the window to continue his shooting training,
His door was knocked on again.
