Good Weapon

After Shen Wuxiao accepted the mission, he just waited for Nuibari's progress.

He'd deal with it when it was almost done!

Maximize the damage.

Seeing that it was almost finished, with just one cut remaining, Shen Wuxiao immediately activated his ability.

He stared intently at the Shadowless Lamp above, an extremely hidden power spreading.

Shen Wuxiao could even feel the filament inside the Shadowless Lamp melting.

"Sizzling..."

Faint sounds arose.

Lin Fan's hearing was sharp, so he naturally heard them too.

Following the source of the faint sound, he finally looked up.

The next second, the Shadowless Lamp flickered violently.

"Poof..."

In that instant, it exploded!

"Ah, damn it!" Lin Fan instinctively shouted, immediately shielding his face.

His speed was fast enough, so he wasn't injured.

But the countless tiny fragments that instantly exploded rained down, almost all of them falling, scattered!

Like grit!

Dr. Zhang also yelped and jumped back.

He was traumatized.

"What's going on?" Shen Wuxiao feigned surprise.

The explosion was instantaneous, and after it blew up, arcing electricity could be seen, but nothing else was damaged.

Dr. Zhang immediately called for staff.

After an inspection, the conclusion was that a Current Limiting Resistor had burned out, and the filament melted and exploded due to overload.

But the probability of this was one in ten million; it was hard to say if it was luck or bad luck!

Fortunately, there were no casualties!

Ultimately, the hospital had to replace it with a new one.

But the moment the new light turned on.

Lin Fan, Dr. Zhang, and Shen Wuxiao were once again dumbfounded.

Lin Fan's wound, which was about to be stitched, now had many tiny fragments on it.

Some were even smaller than grit.

"Dr. Zhang... what do you say?" Shen Wuxiao repeated the question.

Lin Fan didn't want to speak, not at all.

Dr. Zhang was also at his wit's end. Was his career about to end?

What happened tonight was something some people couldn't experience in a dozen lifetimes combined.

"Mr. Lin..."

Dr. Zhang felt too embarrassed to speak.

But he had no choice; he had to say it.

"Mr. Lin... this... this will have to be reopened, cleaned, and disinfected again."

"Quite a few fine fragments have fallen into the wound. If those aren't cleaned out, it will definitely become inflamed, and the cells will die!"

Lin Fan was exasperated.

It would have been fine if it exploded after he was stitched up, but it had to happen when it was almost complete, with one cut left.

Now, it needed a thorough cleaning and disinfection before it could be stitched!

Lin Fan felt like he had no will to live.

He pointed to his leg: "Dr. Zhang, look at this. What kind of state is it in? Can it still be stitched properly?"

"It's fine, it's fine..."

Lin Fan gave up and lay back: "Just take the stitches out. Do whatever you think is best, I don't care anymore!"

What the heck was going on? Was he cursed?

Why was so much bad luck happening to him?

He was ambushed, mistakenly injured and covered in filth at the hospital, his wound contaminated with filth, requiring stitches to be removed, cleaned, and disinfected.

Then, a bowl of scalding porridge was poured onto his wound, risking infection, requiring stitches to be removed, cleaned, and re-stitched.

It's fine, but the Shadowless Lamp even exploded! Glass shards are all over the wound, and I have to get the stitches removed and re-stitched!

What do they want? I'm practically becoming a stitching maniac!

Shen Wuxiao didn't say much and just sat far away.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission, gaining 8000 points, and an additional 8000 for completely crushing Lin Fan."

"Current accumulated points: 870,000. You can spend more to redeem realms, martial skills, divine abilities, special abilities, etc.!"

Shen Wuxiao thought for a moment, "Let's go with realms. If I use all my points, where can I advance to?"

"The host is currently a Sixth Rank, First Stage Master. 800,000 points can directly advance you to Seventh Rank, First Stage."

"Just one major realm advancement? Then... then let's advance halfway, to Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage. For the rest, I'll look at martial skills or weapons!"

"Understood, host. The host's realm has been redeemed and advanced to Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage Master, consuming 400,000 points!"

"Remaining: 470,000!"

Shen Wuxiao looked at the items in the Mall.

He had originally wanted to redeem a weapon.

Although the Life-Snatching Judge's Brush was powerful and could catch people off guard, it was a bit too short.

"An inch longer is an inch stronger." If it were a pink-tier artifact from a modern weapon, I'd just shoot.

Bullets imbued with True Force, preferably killing Martial Artists of the same rank with one shot.

"System, why is this pink-tier artifact so expensive? This revolver called the 'Duke of Destruction'!"

"It's 600,000 points. A bit cheaper, and I'll redeem it!"

"Host, it's like this. You are currently a Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage Master, which converts to a Level 65 Martial Artist!"

"Therefore, the weapons equipped naturally need to match your level. You can't handle higher-level ones yet, and lower-level ones are unnecessary."

Shen Wuxiao was a bit helpless.

He had really acted on impulse just now.

He was a Sixth Rank, Fifth Stage Master, equivalent to Level 65.

As for Lin Fan, the Protagonist, he was Fifth Rank, Eighth Stage, equivalent to Level 58. There was still a gap. The one major realm difference was a chasm!

Even at his initial Sixth Rank, First Stage, he wouldn't have been afraid of Lin Fan. With a good weapon, he could have easily crushed him.

Lin Fan wouldn't even be able to fight opponents above his level!

"I should have checked first. Weapons are the soul. It's okay if my realm lags a bit!"

"How about we negotiate? Give me a discount. I think the revolver's additional effect, 'Headshot Strike,' looks so cool!"

"Host, you can earn more points to redeem it. You can also go and seize the Protagonist's opportunities."

"If you do that, your realm advancement might change because you've stolen the Protagonist's opportunities. Once your realm improves, you might not even fancy these weapons."

Shen Wuxiao didn't push it. The System made sense.

If you want good equipment, you need a complete set of endgame gear. Everything now is just for temporary use.

Otherwise, if you keep upgrading, do you have to keep changing equipment for new realms?

That would be too wasteful.

What he truly desired was that Purgatory Gatling, which required ten million points to redeem, and it came with unlimited True Force bullets!

True battlefield dominance!

What foreign races, what exotic beasts, what Protagonists—they were all trash!

May I ask, can the Martial Dao geniuses of all nations withstand an unlimited bullet Gatling imbued with True Force?

Shen Wuxiao decided not to redeem any more martial skills.

He would wait for now and hoard some points.

The System Mall had so many items, like cells, he couldn't even look through them all.

Shen Wuxiao also broke off communication with the System.

Although he didn't get what he wanted, it was better than nothing.

Lin Fan, that idiot, the Destiny Protagonist, his Crescent Moon Saber was merely a purple rare weapon of around Level 45.

It was nothing special!

While Shen Wuxiao was choosing his equipment, Lin Fan finally finished getting stitched up smoothly.

Dr. Zhang, that old geezer, breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Fan also secretly thought, "Finally, it's over. It's time to clean myself up."

Lin Fan was indeed tough.

After a night of torment, he was like a new person.

After being stitched up, he got out of bed and started walking.

Back to the hotel!

Shen Wuxiao naturally accompanied him, though the two maintained a distance.

Lin Fan reeked of filth!

After leaving the hospital, Lin Fan looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's finally over!"

What he meant, of course, wasn't that the stitching was finished, but that his brother's revenge had finally been exacted!

The strike he delivered before leaving that night was with all of Lin Fan's strength.

Don't let the fact that it was just a common piece of glass fool you; Lin Fan had infused True Force into that blow.

Therefore, the opponent was certain to die, he was sure of it!
