Global Shelter Game

Chapter 40: Chapter 40: [Damaged .32 Handgun (Green)]

No. 1 returned to the shelter and took the [Fine Soldier’s Spear (Green)] and the Rad-Away.

To Ye Yun’s relief, although Simon couldn’t use the soldier’s spear, his older brother Xisuo could.

The trade was completed successfully. After watching the two brothers’ figures disappear completely, Bena and his two companions returned to the shelter with the remaining loot.

[Damaged Lizard Hide (Green)] x3

[Description: Hide taken from a mutated lizard, but it was severely damaged during the battle.]

[Mutated Lizard’s Claw (Green)] x2

[Description: Claw taken from a mutated lizard.]

[Mutated Lizard Thigh Meat (Green)] x4

[Description: Edible thigh meat taken from a mutated lizard.]

[Use: +100 Satiety, +100 Hydration. All stats +1 for 15 minutes. Increases Radiation by 1%.]

The haul from the remaining half of the mutated lizard was clearly not as much as from the upper half.

Not only were there fewer parts to salvage, but their quality was also noticeably lower.

However, Ye Yun didn’t feel like he’d lost out on the trade. In fact, his mood was quite good.

After all, the loot distribution had been decided by the two brothers, Xisuo and Simon.

Although they had verbally agreed to split the loot evenly, they had actually given the more valuable upper half of the carcass to the shelter.

’Good. I wasn’t wrong about them.’

Although Xisuo and his brother were the main force in this battle, Bena, who was acting as a freelancer, also sustained a minor injury.

Adding in the time the three of them had spent exploring today, which was already close to 12 hours, Ye Yun didn’t have Bena continue working.

He let Lina and Bena get some much-needed rest and sent No. 1 and No. 2 to continue exploring the vicinity and fill out the map. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Unlike Bena, No. 1 and No. 2 were bionoids, after all. Although their various stats were inferior to Bena’s, they had one very significant advantage: they never got tired.

As long as their durability was sufficient and they had enough power, they could work 24 hours a day.

While No. 1 and No. 2 were out, Ye Yun took the opportunity to check his current status.

His eyes were drawn to a particularly conspicuous green option in the list, and Ye Yun subconsciously clicked on it.

[Damaged .32 Pistol (Green)]

[Production Requirements]:

[Power: 10] [10/10]

[Construction Bot: 1] [1/1]

[Basic Part Requirements]:

[Damaged Iron Wire (White)] x5 [5/5]

The main reason he hadn’t crafted the .32 pistol before was that he had too few green-tier parts on hand, making it impossible for him to figure out the perfect recipe.

After altering the recipe over a hundred times, the production risk was still as high as 4%.

He had previously speculated that the perfect recipe likely required an unlisted green-tier part.

That was why the failure rate had remained stubbornly high.

But looking at the full 34 green-tier parts in his warehouse, Ye Yun felt he could finally give it a try.

After swapping in dozens of different green-tier parts, he finally found the perfect recipe.

Without hesitation, Ye Yun hit ’confirm’.

minutes later, Ye Yun picked up the newly appeared [Damaged .32 Pistol (Green)] from the warehouse.

Ye Yun carefully examined the .32 pistol he had just crafted.

Although the gun was marked as "Damaged" by the system, after being repaired and assembled by the construction bot, it looked quite new on the surface.

The thing’s appearance was almost identical to the revolvers Ye Yun had seen on TV shows.

[Damaged .32 Pistol (Green)]

[Attack: 20-25]

[Attack Speed: Fast]

[Attack Range: Medium]

[Attribute Requirement: Agility 5]

[Note: 2-second cooldown after every six shots.]

Looking at the gun’s overall stats, Ye Yun frowned.

This gun could certainly be considered top-tier among green-quality weapons.

But with a little calculation, he realized the gun had a very poor cost-performance ratio.

The cost to craft a gun like this was a bit too high.

Crafting it with the perfect recipe required 5 green-tier parts and 10 white-tier parts.

Currently, green-tier weapons on the exchange were selling for about 210 to 400 white-tier parts.

As everyone collected more and more materials, the exchange rate between different tiers of parts began to stabilize. The current exchange rate between green-tier and white-tier parts had settled at around 1:100.

Yet to produce one [Damaged .32 Pistol (Green)], his cost alone was about 510 white-tier parts.

Even if he didn’t make a single bit of profit and listed it on the exchange for its cost of 510 white-tier parts, it would probably be very difficult to sell.

’Looks like I’ll probably have to use this thing myself.’

A pang of regret immediately struck Ye Yun.

’I really took a big loss this time.’

Just buying the blueprint alone had cost him 160 white-tier parts.

If not for the decent haul from today, he would probably be depressed to death right now.

Ye Yun sighed. He realized this decision might have been a bit hasty.

Although the weapon’s performance was good, a cost-benefit analysis showed that it wasn’t a worthwhile deal.

He reminded himself that in the future, before crafting anything, he needed to more carefully evaluate the costs and potential returns.

However, he also understood that every step he took now was like crossing a river by feeling for stones.

Although he relied on his assessment system to avoid some risks, some mistakes were simply unavoidable.
