Chapter 24 Bomb backpack and safe house
The bomb shop operated by Junkrat still doesn’t have any customers, just like the last time I came here.
Lin Chi walked to the counter, and before he could speak, the other party’s excited over-the-head voice rang:
“You used bomb tires, right? I felt the vibration in the store! Isn’t my baby cute?”
“Nonsense, I just used it nearby.” Lin Chi said angrily: “What about the proposed explosion range of 20 meters? I was blown up when standing 25 meters away.”
“Ah, that might be my calculation error, I’m really sorry.”
Junkrat said so, but there was still a usual weird smile on his face, without any embarrassment at all.
Afterwards, the gray-headed man used his mechanical arm to take out a wad of cash and a silver bomb tire from under the counter.
At the same time, in Lin Chi’s sight, a prompt to complete the task popped up:
The mission “Bomb Tire” has been completed!
You have been rewarded for the task: 10,000 US dollars in cash, the new bomb tire complete version X1.
You gained 30 dominance points and 20 prestige points.
After reading the information column of the task completion, Lin Chi rudely stuffed the loot into his briefcase, then opened the status column thoughtfully to check his current status.
After completing the mission, both dominance points and prestige reached 30. It seems that these two points should be PVE rewards for completing tasks or killing BOSS.
After experiencing the previous reward mission, Lin Chi’s kill count has reached five, and there are only two heads left to kill seven people required by the Murderer.
In this way, it seems that PVP is faster…
Thinking of this, Lin Chi smiled, closed his status bar, looked up at Junkrat’s black and gray face, and asked, “Where is that backpack?”
“Oh, I just forgot, the backpack is here!” Junkrat took out a red “school bag” from under the counter and placed it on the table.
Lin Chi was about to stuff the bomb backpack into his briefcase when the nervous “bomberman” in front of him suddenly shouted again:
“do not do that!”
“What’s the matter?” Lin Chi frowned and looked at him.
“This backpack must be carried with you. Putting it in other packages will explode!” Junkrat reminded: “Besides, don’t let it be shot, or it will explode!”
Hearing this, Lin Chi put his right hand on the bomb backpack for a while, and the item information finally popped out:
Ivan’s bomb backpack.
Quest items are not tradable and cannot be used.
The item may explode when placed in the item box, and will definitely explode when hit by a bullet or a severe impact.
This backpack is the “source of power” of Crazy Ivan, and the bomb expert used the materials in the backpack to make the bomb. If you are not a bomb expert, don’t open it, otherwise you will… No, you have no chance to regret it.
“Ok……”
After reading the item information, Lin Chi sighed helplessly, picked up the dangerous red backpack, and put it on his back.
To recruit special NPCs, it was not as simple as I thought. On the way back to Beicheng District from the black market with this backpack, you must avoid fighting other players as much as possible, otherwise, if the opponent hits this thing with a single shot, you will probably be bombed with bones!
Moreover, Lin Chi is more concerned now, there is another question:
Looking at the “Hero-level NPC, recruitable (tasks to be completed on the top of Junkrat’s head, Lin Chi asked casually: “Do you have any other tasks that I can help you with?”
“Not for the time being!” Junkrat said as he took out a trap and began to check the bite of the trap.
“Then, are you willing to join me? The treatment is very good.”
As soon as he said this, Junkrat raised his head and glanced at him, and said straightforwardly: “No, I’m still opening a shop!”
“…”
Realizing that this NPC was still in a state where it could not be recruited, Lin Chi knew that he must have missed some task or ignored the timing of triggering.
But for now, it is better to send the extremely dangerous bomb backpack to Beicheng District first.
Lin Chi, who carried a “big bomb” with him, didn’t say much, and immediately left the black market with a bomb backpack and returned to the large square in front of the mall.
Since the thing he was carrying was likely to blow himself up, this time he was more cautious than before.
He walked quickly through the crowd and returned to the underground parking lot. He sat in the BMW M3 he had previously grabbed from the street. Lin Chi put his backpack in the passenger seat and fastened his seat belt very intimately. Just breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew very well that if the backpack was hit by a bullet now, he would still be blown into the sky.
But in any case, this thing is finally not clinging to my back…
Driving the BMW M3 out of the underground parking lot and back to the street above, Lin Chi’s speed this time was also much slower than before, basically equivalent to those street cars driven by NPCs on the road.
If you drive too fast, the bomb backpack might explode. In the current situation, it is better to be safe.
Following a broken motorcycle, he slowly drove out of the city center. While driving to the north of the city, Lin Chi looked at the night scenes on both sides of the street.
When he passed this side before, he was basically in a state of escape from the wanted, and he didn’t have the time to see the surrounding street scenes. This time he finally had a chance.
If the red backpack in the passenger seat is not there, this journey might be more pleasant…
As BMW slowly entered the Beicheng District, the houses on both sides of the street began to become increasingly dilapidated, and street lights became scarce.
Lin Chi was about to concentrate on the road, but suddenly saw a red light on a billboard, dispelling the shadows on the street:
“This house is for sale! Only seventy thousand dollars.”
Behind the billboard is an old two-story apartment. The exterior wall peeling off a lot, revealing the gray-white wall below. The two windows on the second floor are also broken. It looks like it is common in horror games. Haunted house.
“Ok?”
Seeing this advertisement, Lin Chi suddenly became interested, parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked to the place of the billboard.
——In “Paradise of War”, players can indeed buy houses and use them as their own bases. In addition to elite mercenaries, two types of mercenaries also need to provide shelters before they can be hired.
Of course, it costs a lot of money to buy a house. Even this kind of broken house in Beicheng District requires 70,000 U.S. dollars to buy.
If it is an ordinary player, it should be difficult to save 70,000 US dollars now, less than a day after the start of the game.
But for Lin Chi, who has received one hundred thousand dollars from the reward mission, there is no problem in buying this building.
Lin Chi walked quickly to the side of the billboard and saw a middle-aged man wearing a peaked cap, leaning against the billboard and smoking a cigar. The brown coat looks expensive, so the owner of this house should be right.
Seeing someone approaching, the middle-aged man seemed to be in a bad mood, and asked angrily: “Is there something wrong?”
“I’m here to buy a house.” Lin Chi pointed to the “haunted house” behind the billboard.
——It’s time to buy a “base”.
