The purpose of Xiao Ran going to Trading Zone again is naturally to buy some skills. Before learning Weakness Identification, the skills that can be used in combat are only Quick Lock and one non-skill skill Spirit Burst. Counting the passive skill Assault Type Piloting Specialization, it can be said that it is quite lacking in skills.
Moreover, Sheryl's skills are all auxiliary, and a self-defense skill is needed to ensure safety. It is also best to pair it with an offensive skill.
In Trading Zone, Xiao Ran didn't pay much attention to components, body, etc. At most, he just paid attention to whether there were any defensive parts similar to Beam Shield or I force field, and prepared them for the soon-to-be-completed VF- 27 is also equipped with one. Although VF-27 will be manufactured using Gundanium Alloy Alpha, there are not many units after all, and there are still areas that cannot be taken into account in terms of defense. If you can get a defensive equipment as a supplement and add some powerful weapons, it will be a good choice.
However, for the upcoming mission, Xiao Ran was not prepared to bring VF-27. After all, he could only bring three airframes into Mission World. The three formed airframes of Lightning Aegis, Black Astray and Black Hawk were enough. As for VF-27, it would not be too late to make detailed improvements after returning from this mission.
After shopping around, Xiao Ran found that there were really few places selling skills, and most of them were low-level skills like reconnaissance.
For example, Xiao Ran saw a skill:
Sniper: Consumes 5 points of spirit, which increases the effective range of the weapon by 20% for three minutes. After the state ends, you cannot use any driving skills for five minutes, and the CD is 30 minutes.
The cooldown time for skills that increase range is quite long, and they are not suitable for Xiao Ran and Sheryl at all.
Accuracy: Consumes 5 points of spirit, improves attack accuracy within thirty seconds, and has a cooldown time of thirty minutes.
Xiao Ran With Quick Lock, this skill has no meaning at all, and it cannot be upgraded. Even if it is given to Sheryl, it will not be of much use.
The price for such a skill is not cheap. The price of sniper is 30,000 Merit Points. The exact price is 25,000 Merit Points. Even if there are more Xiao Ran Merit Points, it is impossible to waste it on these skills that are useless to him.
However, Xiao Ran saw a B-Class Skill, which was a state burst skill, somewhat similar to his Spirit Burst.
Potential Burst: Consumes 10 points of spirit. According to the driving specialization, the corresponding main attributes are increased by 10%, and the secondary attributes are increased by 5%. Duration: ten seconds. The price of this skill is one hundred thousand Merit Points, and it is also a skill that cannot be upgraded.
He looked at it with interest for a few times, but after seeing Merit Points that could not be upgraded and priced at 100,000, Xiao Ran gave up the plan to buy it. After all, Spirit Burst had no time limit, and he felt that the consumption of Spirit Burst was similar to this skill, but the increase rate was much higher than this skill.
After wandering around for more than two hours, Xiao Ran still made some gains when he left the safe zone. He also had two more skills, two plug-ins, and two props worth 100,000 points. However, based on these two hours of experience, Xiao Ran also confirmed his thoughts. Skills that can increase attribute strength may be really rare, but the price will be very high. At least I can't buy them today.
Strengthening: Consuming 15 points of mental energy, Mental Power forms a fragile shield on the surface of the machine body, reducing the next enemy target's attack strength by 20%. The price is 40,000, and this is for Sheryl.
Hand Speed Burst: Consumes 3 mental points, increases hand speed by 25%, lasts for 5 seconds, and has a cooling time of 1 minute. The price is 30,000 points. It is also a skill that cannot be upgraded, but it can instantly increase hand speed. If used with Spirit Burst, the 25% hand speed increase of this skill will increase the hand speed of Xiao Ran to an extremely exaggerated level. Whether it is used for fighting or shooting, it can play a great role.
High-Energy Shot: C+ level plug-in, doubles the attack energy consumption and doubles the attack strength. It is effective for beam weapons. The effect of weapons above B- level is halved. It can be turned on or off manually, but it will cause the weapon to become overheated until it is destroyed. After shopping around, I bought two Trading Zones. One is worth 25,000 and the other is 30,000. These are Xiao Ran that are going to be installed on Lightning Aegis and Black Astray.
Emergency Teleport: A one-time prop that automatically takes effect when the machine body is broken. It instantly teleports the pilot to a safe location (needs to be specified) and can be activated by itself. The price is 100,000, and the price of two is 200,000. This is a portable prop that will be effective as long as it is placed on the body. It is the size of a mobile phone. It can be regarded as an expensive life-saving skill. However, there are also counter-props, but the price of those props is even more scary. It is impossible for ordinary participants to buy such counter-props. Having this is equivalent to having a life.
When Xiao Ran returned to Arena Zone's rented training room, he only had 620,000 Merit Points left on him, and only more than two million. Xiao Ran had no intention of buying anything else., at most, I need to replenish a few ammunition replenishing props and energy replenishing props, and also have to pay for renting the training room during the last period, which is about ten or twenty thousand, and I plan to keep the rest for the time being, in case there is any need to consume Merit Points.
Time passed like this day by day, and Luo also sent the modified and built body to Xiao Ran's Gnakuli. Looking at the brand new Black Astray, it had the destiny-00 backpack of Justice Gundam, and the original energy inside the backpack The components and thrusters were changed to a Thermonuclear Energy Engine. The Thermonuclear Energy Engine was installed in the center of the backpack. This part was slightly thickened and modified. The original two thrusters were not modified, so that the current backpack has three thrusters, and the propulsion speed has been increased from B- to B level.
The backpack comes with PS Armor, but it is not VPS Armor, but I don't know how Luo changed the color to black gold to match the color of Black Astray.
On the Black Astray body, the original rotating reflective line shield was replaced by Bilateral Rotatable Shield Cannon (refer to the shoulder cannon of AGE-2), and some modifications were made to the appearance of the double shoulder shield cannon, making it look more like a pair of wings. The energy structure has also been completely replaced. The propeller set and energy pack of the body itself were directly removed and replaced with the Thermonuclear Energy Engine thruster set modified by Luo, turning the body into the Thermonuclear Energy body itself. The group and the backpack energy group are combined energy supply methods, and the original battery energy pack and propulsion are assembled on the shoulder shield cannon, allowing Black Astray to fly without the backpack.
On Lightning Aegis, the shield has been completely transformed into a weapon. The nine muzzles are neatly arranged around the thickened shield. The muzzles are all facing one direction. Although the shield is thickened, Sparrow Screen Shatter Crossbow is originally smaller than ordinary weapons. Some, so there is no pressure to install it after disassembly, and Luo also installed a small optical sight on each muzzle of its own initiative. Except for the main launch port in the center of the shield tip, the other secondary launch ports can be fine-tuned to an angle of no more than 30 degrees.
As for the Thermonuclear Energy Engine group, it is installed in the same position as in Super Dimension Fortress Frontier. They are both on the Arm Thruster composite module. However, what was installed in Super Dimension Fortress Frontier at that time was On the above, the position chosen by Luo is next to MediaTek Beam Gun, and the composite module has been slightly modified so that Thermonuclear Energy Engine is also wrapped inside the arc-shaped armor.
Black Hawk has not changed much. After all, only one Beam Shield is installed. However, Luo also kindly added PS Armor to the body. The live ammunition defense is very different from before.
There is also a brand new black VF-27, a complete production line, and ten GHOST-9V fighters. Looking at so many things, Xiao Ran can't help but feel a strong sense of accomplishment.
The GHOST-9V drone is not a body, but an accessory. Xiao Ran tried to see if it could fit into Storage Slot. Unexpectedly, it actually fit in, but the prompt also told Xiao Ran to leave Prometheus. Once taken out after E, it cannot be put back in. Every five drones occupy one grid, but Xiao Ran has quite a lot of grids. In addition to the energy replenishment items and ammunition replenishment items, there is only a first aid kit and nothing else.
Putting the production line in a corner of the Gnaku, even with so many things, did not make the Gnaku that expanded with the Xiao Ran appearance crowded, and it still looked so spacious. Xiao Ran directly specified the manufacture of a heavy armor backpack that was common to both VF-27 and VF-25, and directly manufactured ten of them and put them in Storage Slot, which also occupied two of them.
And they started working at full strength, producing all 5,000 missiles, 1,000 High Explosive Rounds, and 500 jamming bombs, and put them into Storage Slot, occupying three grids.
In the last week, Xiao Ran did not have to stay behind to produce those things. Xiao Ran asked Sheryl to undergo intensive training and stayed in the training room almost all day long. Tiandu even spent 5000 Merit Points on battlefield simulations every Tiandu, allowing Sheryl to fight with him in the training room.
It wasn't until the penultimate day of training, after a total of more than ten or twenty days of intense training in this mission cycle, that Sheryl's D-class universal Piloting Skill finally invested in Xiao Ran's Dabi When Merit Points was upgraded, Xiao Ran immediately asked Sheryl to strengthen it and directly upgraded Support Specialization's driving to level 3, gaining a 9% increase in spirit and stamina.
However, Xiao Ran also discovered that although Sheryl's Piloting Skill has been upgraded to C level, its real combat effectiveness is still a bit terrible due to its occasional hits and poor skills. It can at most fight a D+ type body one-on-one, and it will take several minutes to kill the simulated D+ level body.
But the combat effectiveness is not strong, but the survivability is quite powerful. At least Xiao Ran is driving Lightning Aegis but not Spirit Burst. Seeing Sheryl flying around driving Black Hawk is basically useless.
And the time finally came to the last day of rest. Xiao Ran and Sheryl did nothing on this day. They just took a good rest at home and played games to relax their tense nerves. At night, a certain sound in the room also continued for a long time, which completely relaxed themselves.
The two of them opened their eyes very early the next day. Sheryl even brought a large box of clothes and various cosmetics and threw them into Xiao Ran's Storage Slot. He helped Sheryl put on the pilot uniform and put the weapon into The device was attached to Sheryl's thigh. Xiao Ran had prepared himself again. He and Sheryl stood in the Gnakuli waiting. Last time he entered the world while sitting in the machine body. This time he was going to use a different method.
