CHAPTER 66: CHAPTER 66: NOW, IT’S YOUR TURN TO BE ON EDGE.

Inside the "Constant Star" train.

Chen Mang got up and walked to Carriage No. 2, consuming 1000 units of copper ore to create both the "12.7mm heavy machine gun ammunition production line" and the "5.56mm rifle ammunition production line".

With these two production lines, the heavy machine guns on the top of the carriage, which had almost never been fired, finally became something useful rather than just decorations.

It is worth mentioning——

The "heavy machine gun" only increases effective range and firing speed with each upgrade but does not increase power.

The actual determinant of the power of a heavy machine gun is the level of the bullets.

The higher the bullet level, the greater the power.

Of course.

A heavy machine gun can only use bullets of the same level as itself or lower, and cannot use bullets of a higher level.

For example, a Level 3 heavy machine gun can use Level 1 bullets or Level 3 bullets but cannot use Level 4 bullets.

...

The "Three-legged Cat Heavy Machine Gun" is a green-grade accessory, made from iron ore, and upgrades with iron ore as well.

After consuming 3000 units of iron ore...

He finally upgraded a heavy machine gun to Level 5.

Currently, the Constant Star Train consists of 8 carriages, with each of the top four carriages equipped with one "Three-legged Cat Heavy Machine Gun". The tops of the four newly created carriages are still empty.

Just like "armor", this item needs to be built and upgraded separately. Unlike the "vehicle blade", once you upgrade it, no matter how many carriages you build subsequently, they will all have the same level vehicle blade included.

"..."

Chen Mang sighed lightly; this thing is also a big consumer of resources. But what can you say... It truly lives up to being a green-grade offensive vehicle, the first unlocked supermodel effect is indeed remarkable.

-

"Three-legged Cat Heavy Machine Gun Level 5 Supermodel Effect": The heavy machine gun can be linked to the ’Train Assistance AI’. As long as the enemy is within the target detection radar’s range, the Train Assistance AI will automatically lock onto the enemy, greatly improving accuracy.

ps: Requires the "Train Assistance AI" green-grade accessory to be upgraded to its maximum level.

-

He has somewhat summarized the experience.

The higher the grade of the accessory, the better the unlocked supermodel effect.

And the supermodel effect of "offensive accessories" is greater than that of "functional accessories", and "functional accessories" are greater than "lifestyle accessories".

Just like this supermodel effect.

It directly imposes a headshot hack, as long as it is within radar range, once exposed, it’s a second kill.

No need to arrange thugs to control the heavy machine gun anymore. Not only is it troublesome, but the hit rate is also hard to improve. Now it’s directly entrusted to the "Train Assistance AI," greatly enhancing combat efficiency.

Normally.

The upper limit for green-grade accessories is only Level 3, so he met that requirement long ago. His "Train Assistance AI" is already Level 5; after linking this heavy machine gun’s circuit system to the console, this machine gun officially becomes an AI gun.

As for the remaining 3 machine guns, they will have to wait to be upgraded separately to obtain this supermodel effect.

...

After completing all these.

Chen Mang turned his attention to the "12.7mm heavy machine gun ammunition production line" in front of him, upgrading it to... Level 3 in one go, consuming 1200 units of copper ore. It couldn’t be upgraded to Level 5 as it requires a full 3000 units of copper ore, and he only had a total of 4210 units of copper ore.

If it reached Level 5, there wouldn’t be much copper ore left to make bullets.

-

"Level 1 Bullet": 1 unit of copper ore for 1 bullet.

"Level 2 Bullet": 5 units of copper ore for 1 bullet.

"Level 3 Bullet": 10 units of copper ore for 1 bullet.

-

"So expensive..."

Chen Mang looked at the bullet prices on the production line and twitched his mouth slightly. A single Level 3 bullet costs 10 units of copper ore, and with the fast firing rate of a heavy machine gun, two to three hundred rounds could be gone in the blink of an eye. If they’re all Level 3 bullets, that would be two to three thousand units of copper ore.

What kind of boss do you have to fight to make it worthwhile, at least it should be at the level of a Cannibal Spider, but even the Cannibal Spider he encountered probably wouldn’t be killed with just two to three hundred rounds of heavy machine gun bullets.

While the "bullet production line" is already at Level 3, it doesn’t mean it can only produce Level 3 bullets. It can produce bullets from Level 1 to Level 3.

He consumed 500 units of copper ore to produce a total of 500 Level 1 bullets.

Adding to the previous stock, there are now over 800 Level 1 heavy machine gun bullets inside the train. This can ensure that the "Built-in Fire Control System" is in a usable state at any moment.

If the need arises.

The machine guns extending from the ceilings of each carriage will conduct a thorough sweep of all members on the train.

Authority must be backed by force.

This thing might never be used, but it cannot be without it. Those machine guns pointing inward, in a way, represent his power and status.

Finally, another 2000 units of copper ore were used to produce 200 Level 3 bullets.

With that——

He nearly squandered all the resources accumulated within the train over a few days.

Only 8239 units of iron ore and 510 units of copper ore remained.

Chen Mang patted the "heavy machine gun bullet production line" that was like a gold-swallowing beast, finally realizing the true charm of white-grade vehicle accessories... savings.

Both can penetrate the defenses of a Level 3 boss.

The "vehicle blade" only consumes some Energy Stone.

But as for the "heavy machine gun," every bullet is his blood and sweat.

Although the latter has greater power, a longer attack distance, and even an automatic headshot supermodel effect, it cannot withstand the immense resource consumption and can only be used as a trump card. Unless absolutely necessary, he is reluctant to use this machinery.

The "vehicle blade" is still more practical, consuming a little more time is fine. After all, his armor is already Level 3, and currently, there are hardly any monsters in the Tieling Wasteland capable of breaching his defenses.

The "Tieling Wasteland" is a low-level area.

The highest level train in this area is Level 3, and the highest level monster is also Level 3, while his "armor" is also at Level 3.

...

"Let’s go."

Returning to the train chamber, Chen Mang sat at the console, glanced at the still fairly sufficient Energy Stones, retracted the Wind-Fire Wheel, and set down the mechanical legs, gently stepping on the accelerator.

Like a centipede.

As it was about to hit the canyon wall, the mechanical legs skillfully and naturally climbed up the wall, quickly scaling the 90-degree wall surface.

The view pulled high.

In the dusk, the Doomsday Abyss vaguely showed a train climbing quickly up the cliffs at a fair speed.

Soon.

The train cleared the cliff, switched back to the Wind-Fire Wheel, and roared toward the night-covered wasteland.

Objective——

Find the Corpse Tide that encircled him several times.

He’s back for revenge.

Just you mischievous brats, bothering him every day when he was mining. You made him so worried every day while mining for fear the Corpse Tide would sneak up on him at random times.

Now, it’s your turn to be worried.
