Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 48 Civilian Equipment - Bone Armor
Yesterday and the day before yesterday, Shen Jin walked through the urban area of Q City, across the Ganghai District, the Development Zone, and the Daibei River District. He felt that he had already exhausted his WeChat step count for a month. He didn't want to go out for a long time. Those zombies outside had big mouths and were roaring... so fierce!
It’s still more comfortable at home. With such a big vibrating bed, once you lie down on it, the bed will move by itself. At this time, you can put a mobile phone in your pocket and quickly count tens of thousands of steps on WeChat. Of course, people’s physiques cannot be generalized. Some people may only count a few dozen steps and then pretend to sleep when their girlfriends have an expression of “that’s all” on their faces…
This morning, Shen Jin came out of the bedroom rubbing his waist, and met Li Moxiao who had a resentful look on his face. "Big hentai! Shameless!" He turned around and left.
"Uh..." Shen Jin was speechless. He had clearly asked Shang Qian to pretend to go back to her room yesterday and then teleport into his bedroom. He didn't expect his niece to find out...
The vibrating bed has only been shaking for 3 hours, is it so obvious?
Shen Jin had breakfast in the cafeteria on the second floor of the villa and headed to the west city gate...
Liu Jin returned to his position as captain of the West Gate Guard, and used his special abilities to continuously detect whether the people entering were extraordinary people. Suddenly, he felt a person with extremely strong energy approaching, "Huh? The boss is here!" Liu Jin opened his eyes.
"Hello, boss!" the other guards shouted in unison.
Shen Jin smiled and waved: "Thank you for your hard work, comrades!"
"Serve Home No. 1!" everyone shouted again in unison.
"Good boy, they even met!"
Shen Jin came to check the number of new survivors who had entered the west gate in the past few days. The city gate guards had electronic and paper versions of these data. This was Shang Qian's request, and they could be traced back later.
The account showed that since the news was released by Tianluodiwang, the number of new survivors joining Home No. 1 has gradually increased, from a dozen people at the beginning to almost 100 people now, including some extraordinary people. Occasionally, some settlements will migrate to Home No. 1 as a whole, and thousands of people can come at once. "By the way, set up an observation area on the open space here in the future. Newcomers must be observed for 3 hours before being allowed in to prevent some people who carry the zombie virus but deliberately don't say it from sneaking in. Do you remember how the settlements of those government troops were lost for the first time yesterday? It was breached by such people from the inside. By the time they reacted, the base was full of infected people..."
"Yes, Boss!"
At this moment, there was a sound of pounding on the wall outside the city gate. "Open the door! Open the door quickly! Help!"
On the 50-meter-high wall, a patrolling Transcendent noticed something unusual and shouted, "There's an M1 zombie outside chasing after the pseudo Transcendents in our base. Several of them are already injured. Open the door quickly to meet the enemy!"
Liu Jin pulled the lever, and the round stone in the middle of the city wall was pulled to both sides, revealing a big door. Eleven pseudo-transcendents filed in, and eight wall guards in full armor went out of the city to meet the enemy. "Take it!"
Shen Jin casually threw a sausage with a 2-minute potency to a superpower, "Thanks, Boss!" The superpower's eyes lit up and he ate it directly. He knew that this was a superpower food that could improve his ability to the second level, giving him great strength and super defense. The 5 kinds of superpower food that Shen Jin could make were all drawn by Yang Ao and trained for everyone. Therefore, although many people in the superpower team had never eaten it, they already had sufficient theoretical experience of eating it. The superpower felt the expansion of his body and the power of the second-level superpower, "Ha!"
He roared and rushed out, attacking the M1 zombie directly. The other teammates cooperated with him to deal auxiliary damage...
“Ah…” Liu Jin sighed as he stood there. His special ability was only effective against humans and could not suppress zombies, so his ability to deal with zombies was no different from that of ordinary pseudo-superhumans. “Ahem!”
"He~! Tui!"
“Ooooo…cough cough…oooo~!”
Of the 11 extraordinary people who came in, more than half were injured. They were seriously injured when they were avoiding the M1 zombies. Three of them were seriously injured. After entering Home No. 1, they fell directly to the ground and couldn't stand up. They were bleeding at the corners of their mouths and had deep wounds on their backs that could be seen to the bone. There was also a man with a big hole in his stomach. Half of his intestines fell out and he tied a knot with his hands and stuffed them back in. At this time, all the injured people were desperate. Although they ran back to Home No. 1, being infected by zombies was equivalent to a death sentence. The four uninjured people were afraid and fortunate. If they had arrived at Home No. 1 a little later, they would have died outside. "Third sister, if you have anything to say, any unfulfilled wishes, tell your brother!"
"Lao Miao...I will work hard to become a superhuman and avenge you!"
The man called Lao Miao glanced at him and muttered: "..."
"Hmm? What did you say, Lao Miao?"
"I said... I think... I can still be saved..."
The third sister coughed up blood and said, "Ahem... I heard that the boss of Home No. 1 has a medicine that can bring people back to life, heal bones, and revive the dead. You... go and ask Boss Shen for help!"
The seven people lying on the ground suddenly felt hopeful when they heard this. They all stared at the four uninfected companions with burning eyes, "But... Boss Shen is in the villa. I'm afraid that after coming back and forth, you guys have already... Hey! Hold on, I'll go right away! Even if I have to sacrifice my looks, I'll get you the elixir!"
A woman with a body as sturdy as a bear said this. Shen Jin took a look and thought that this woman would not be able to bear the vibration of the bed. He interrupted with a look of toothache: "That's not necessary! I'll arrange medicine for you right away. Uh... curing bones and living dead is too exaggerated. It can only treat zombie viruses and restore the body..."
"Who are you?" The four people had never seen Shen Jin before, but judging from his clothes and aura, they knew that this man must be a big shot in No. 1 Home.
Liu Jin smiled and said, "This is the Boss Shen you are looking for. You are lucky!"
Shen Jin took out 7 magic beans and gave them to eat. The 7 people felt a warm energy bursting out of their bodies. Strong vitality continued to repair their injuries and eliminate the crazy multiplying zombie virus. Ten minutes later...
Six people survived. The man with a tangled intestine ran wildly all the way, causing serious damage to his internal organs. He died of organ failure before the magic beans could take effect, and Shen Jin was helpless.
“Puff!”
The man's teammates chopped off his head with the [Flint·Great Sword]...
The 10 people who survived were extremely grateful to Shen Jin. The sturdy woman among them repeatedly stated that she could pay a "price" to express her gratitude. "No need to say more. If you really want to, you can repay me by working like a cow or a horse in your next life!"
Shen Jin felt that facing this kind of situation where he was willing to pledge his body to someone, he also needed some strategies. If it was good, he would seize the day; if it was bad, he would postpone it to the next life.
After the group recovered for a while, they supported each other and walked away. The Senzu Beans only helped them stabilize their internal injuries. Some wounds needed to be sutured in the hospital to prevent secondary tearing, infection and suppuration.
"The zombies outside are still too difficult for pseudo-superhumans. It's hard to survive if you get touched by them. The error tolerance rate is too low..."
Shen Jin's extraordinary people all have a full set of Artisan Soul Armor, which can defend against attacks from first-level and even second-level evolved zombies. They will not be killed by sneak attacks. The armor on their bodies can allow them to hold on until the captain consumes second-level compressed energy food and bursts out with power to kill first-level evolved zombies. "By the way! What if... I make a set of cheap Artisan Soul Armor for all pseudo-extraordinary people? As long as it can block one or two attacks, it will be enough. One or two defenses may very well... save their lives!"
These pseudo-superhumans are the precious wealth of Shen Jin's investment. Those who have experience in fighting zombies are much stronger than a young man. These people will be the reserve superhumans of Home No. 1 in the future. Shen Jin will not let them die in vain. It is neither in line with his heart nor in the interests of Home No. 1.
He put on his own [Jet Pack] and flew directly back to the [Craftsman's Research Institute] in the backyard. What material should he use to make the armor?
It requires a lot of materials, and the defensive effect is pretty good...
"Logs? The armor and durability are too low..."
Every time Shen Jin used materials like logs, he was just coveting its [Ecological] affix, which could slowly restore the durability of weapons and tools.
"Cobblestone? That's a lot too, but... its durability is only slightly higher than logs, its armor is average, and its affixes are even worse. It even has negative effects!"
When [Cobblestone] is used as the [Base] of armor, it will have the affix [Stingy: Stone is a terrible material. Your equipment will have even less durability.]
Good guy, he put a debuff on himself!
The already poor durability is made worse. When [Cobblestone] is used as the material of [Armor Plate] and [Plywood], it comes with the affix [Cheap: More durability can be restored when repairing equipment]
"I'm missing a piece of [Rock]? It's such a crappy affix!"
Of course, the main reason why [Cobblestone] was abandoned was not because of its crappy attributes and affixes, but... the Craftsman's Soul Armor made of [Cobblestone] was too damn heavy!
The pseudo-transcendent couldn't even walk after putting it on. "So... this is the only material that's large in quantity, has decent properties, and is low in weight!"
【bone】!
Each zombie put into the [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] can explode 5~10 bones. As long as Shen Jin continues to kill zombies, the [Bones] are almost inexhaustible!
Shen Jin burned two waves of zombies this time and obtained a total of 49,000 [bones]. Because the area occupied was too large, Shen Jin combined these [bones] into [bone blocks], [bone] × 64 = [bone block] × 1
A total of 766 [bone blocks] were synthesized !
There are so many bones now, and the output will increase in the future. It will be most suitable to use them to make a set of bone craftsman soul armor for the pseudo-supernatural people!
Just do it!
Shen Jin started from the lower body, [Bone Leg Guard Base]
【Material: Bone】
[When this material is used as a base for armor]
[Durability: 120]
[Armor: 4]
[Attached attribute "High Calcium": Absorbing bones can revitalize your armor and temporarily increase the strength of the armor]
…
Rebuild the [Bone Plate]
【Material: Bone】
【When this material is used as armor plate】
[Enhancement coefficient: 2.1] (The total durability of the equipment will be multiplied by this coefficient)
[Durability: 35]
[Toughness: 1]
[Attached attribute "Toughness": Increase armor toughness by 50%]
…
Finally, the bone splint
【Material: bone】
【When this material is used as a splint】
[Durability: 53]
[Attached attribute "Toughness": Increase armor toughness by 50%]
…
Three parts synthesis!
[Bone Leggings]
【Durability: 437/437】
[Armor: 4]
[Toughness: 1.5]
[Attributes: High calcium, toughness]
[Number of enhancements : 3]
A total of 10 [bones] were consumed, and a piece of Craftsman Soul [Bone Leggings] made entirely of bone material was produced. It was milky white in color and looked a bit earthy. Shen Jin picked it up and found that the weight was acceptable, about 10 pounds.
"This [High Calcium] affix can restore the durability of armor. It's much better than the [Ecology] of logs. Where can I not kill a few zombies to restore durability? By the way... how can absorbing bones temporarily increase armor?"
Shen Jin took out a bone and brought it close to the bone leggings. A milky white light flickered on the leggings. The bone continued to melt on its surface until it was completely submerged in the leggings. A layer of light white film appeared on the surface of the earthy-looking bone leggings. The color was very light and could not be seen at all if one did not look carefully. Shen Jin looked at the properties of the leggings again. Bone leggings (high calcium reinforcement)
【Durability: 437/437】
【High calcium defense: 100/100】
[Armor: 4+10]
[Toughness: 1.5]
[Attributes: High Calcium (activated), Toughness]
[Number of enhancements remaining: 3]
"It's a bit like the [Delicious Affix] when [Cast Iron] is used as the material. That one absorbs blood to gain the [Energy Enhancement] attribute, increasing the lethality. Bone armor absorbs bones to gain the [High Calcium Enhancement] attribute. The temporary increase in defense is not long-lasting, with only 100 points of durability, but... the armor is directly increased by 10 points. In this way, the armor is only 8 points lower than that of steel armor. The defense is enough to resist several attacks from first-level zombies, and as long as there are [Bone], it can repair and enhance the defense infinitely!"
Shen Jin is very satisfied with this equipment, it has a very high cost-effectiveness!
You know, there are more than 2,000 pseudo-superhumans in Home No. 1 now, and the number is increasing at a rate of 100 per day. Shen Jin has a lot of better materials: [pig iron], [steel], [iron], [bronze], etc., but they have to be kept for armed elites and for use in the future industrial era, so cost-effective bone armor is the way to go!
Besides...the defense is not bad either!
The [Full Body Armor Synergy Field] of the Artisan Soul equipment allows the entire set of equipment to jointly resist damage. Although the bone armor has slightly lower defense, durability, and toughness, if it is often strengthened with bones and the [High Calcium] attribute is used well, it is still a small artifact.
Shen Jin spent another 40 [bones] to make a [bone helmet], [bone breastplate], and [bone boots]. The whole set of equipment cost a total of 50 [bones], weighed about 50 kilograms, and had medium defense.
"Then the question is, what is the value of such a set of armor that can save lives? Or... you can just sell the [bones] directly. The price of this set is... 100 pieces!"
Big capitalist Shen Jin is online!
