Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

The white light quickly dissipated, and a perfectly concealed booby trap appeared in front of Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao took two steps forward and picked up the booby trap.

[Hidden Mine +10: Tier 55. Created by Shen Zhi and then synthesized by Lin Xiao. Upon explosion, it disperses the fog within a 55-meter radius and deals moderate damage to enemies within that radius.]

[Concealment: When in the fog, enemies of level two or lower will not detect the concealed booby trap. Outside the fog, it also reduces the chance of others detecting the concealed booby trap.]

[Trick: Enemies within the area will be startled for 5 seconds by a trick hidden in a concealed booby trap (the trick has no attack power and is only effective against creatures of Tier 2 and below)]

[Note: boom!!!]

"The range has increased, just like with the other items combined before. The concealment ability should have been there before, but it seems to have been enhanced."

"As for that strange thing..."

Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes and brought the hidden mine close to his pupils, discovering that he could indeed see a faint, eerie face inside.

"This strange thing... is the new ability that appeared after the synthesis."

"An enemy below level two can be hard-stunned for 5 seconds... That's pretty good... If we follow the previous synthesis pattern..."

Lin Xiao thought for a moment, then flipped his hand, consuming 5 stamina points to project another +1 stealth mine.

I took a look and found that the +1 stealth mine's scare time is 0.5 seconds, and the stealth effect is still at level 2.

"Perhaps the +10 version of this item is actually useless; the more important ones are probably +5 or lower. After all, concealed booby traps of +5 or lower have a small blast radius, which can prevent accidental damage..."

After all, the ability to scare enemies can distinguish friend from foe, but the effect of an explosion cannot. If Lin Xiao gets too close to the enemy, he will also be injured by the explosion.

Lin Xiao thought for a moment and then projected four more hidden booby traps with a +1 bonus.

Lin Xiao put a total of 5 +1 stealth mines into his backpack. As for the +10 stealth mine, Lin Xiao hesitated for a long time before finally putting it into his backpack as well.

"Now we're just missing a long-range weapon... the kind that can fire stealthy ghost grenades..."

The most suitable weapon at present is a slingshot, or rather, a slingshot is the one that Lin Xiao is most likely to obtain.

Therefore, Lin Xiao turned his attention back to the regional chat channel and the trading shop, thinking that the all-knowing forum members would eventually provide the answer.

Lin Xiao thought for a moment, then projected a regular 100g bag of bread and put it on the trading shop.

[Trade a 100g bag of bread for a slingshot]

Of course, Lin Xiao posted this transaction information anonymously.

This transaction information was inconspicuous among the many items in the trading shop.

Even so, the transaction was completed in just a few minutes.

Moreover, the other party in the transaction, like Lin Xiao, was also anonymous.

"It seems the other party is also a cautious person with special talents..."

Lin Xiao took out the slingshot he had just traded. The slingshot was very ordinary, just a regular slingshot. It didn't light up or smoke; it was just an unremarkable slingshot.

But Lin Xiao was looking at the materials for making slingshots, since only elastic rubber bands could shoot marbles.

As far as Lin Xiao knows, there are no resources similar to rubber bands in the surrounding environment.

This shows that the person who made the slingshot had some special talent.

Perhaps it's crafting ranged weapons, or perhaps it's converting other resources into something like rubber bands, or maybe it's some other talent.

Since this person has already created a slingshot, it means that perhaps in the not-too-distant future, he will also create weapons such as bows and arrows and crossbows.

Of course, although Lin Xiao had thought of this, it was still a long way from the time when he could use bows and crossbows.

It was just an ordinary slingshot. Lin Xiao only spent 10 points of stamina and 10 points of mental energy to synthesize a +10 slingshot.

[Slingshot +10: Tier 0, an ordinary slingshot, made by ???, but after being synthesized by Lin Xiao, it possesses special effects.]

[Precision: Within 50 meters, anywhere within sight, 100% accuracy.]

A regular slingshot can only achieve accuracy within 20 meters, but the slingshot that Lin Xiao enhanced can hit the target every time within 50 meters.

After Lin Xiao attached the hidden booby trap to his slingshot, a mysterious feeling descended upon him.

He felt as if he had become one with the slingshot in his hand. Within 50 meters, even if a mosquito flew by and Lin Xiao saw it, he could aim at the mosquito's left wing and never hit its right leg.

However, this feeling disappeared after Lin Xiao removed the hidden booby trap from the slingshot.

"That's good, that's all!"

Lin Xiao clipped the slingshot to his waist, where he could quickly pull it out.

Lin Xiao looked at the Shadow Mask. He really wanted to synthesize the Shadow Mask as well, but he really couldn't eat or drink anymore.

Lin Xiao sighed and did not put the Shadow Mask on his face. Instead, he suddenly had another idea, which was something he had had long ago, after he had just activated his talent for synthesis.

Lin Xiao spent some of his stamina to project an ordinary slingshot again.

Then, he took out a +1 stealth mine from his backpack.

Holding a slingshot in his left hand and a booby trap in his right, Lin Xiao softly uttered, "Combine!"

A gentle breeze blew by, but nothing happened.

Lin Xiao sighed, threw the ordinary slingshot on the ground, and put the booby trap back into his backpack.

Two seconds later, Lin Xiao's talent suddenly popped up a notification in his mind.

[Synthesis failed. Current synthesis talent level is insufficient. Requesting the original player to upgrade their talent. Please explore the upgrade requirements yourself.]

"Um?"

"Talents can be upgraded?"

Lin Xiao clicked his tongue, looking at the pop-up message, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it wasn't that his idea was wrong, but that his current talent level was too low.

But if the talents of synthesis can be upgraded, then deconstruction and projection should also be able to be upgraded.

However, they still need to figure out the upgrade requirements on their own.

"Sigh, I really want to know what the effect of the upgraded talent will be..."

Lin Xiao muttered something, but did not receive a reply from the system.

"not good!"

Suddenly, Lin Xiao checked the time displayed by the system and found that 5 hours had passed, which meant that there were only 7 hours left until the first night.

Upon seeing this, Lin Xiao didn't say a word and immediately covered his face with the Shadow Mask.
