Free Web NovelChapter 169: New Equipment
Theodore held his head, which suddenly felt painful. At this rate, Theodore and the others would have to open a way for them to get through the hordes of zombies that filled the streets.
In addition, Theodore thought that there would be more zombies in the area around the city center. Inevitably, they would have to make new weapons to survive.
"Should I look for items at the system store? Hopefully, they won’t be suspicious when I take out a new weapon item later," Theodore muttered as he sighed softly.
Having made up his mind, Theodore called up the interface of his system store. He needed to look around for weapons and various strange items in the system store; who knows, those items could help.
Since Theodore’s level had risen again after killing many zombies in the dungeon before, he could buy many new items in the system store this time.
Not only that, his Gold had also increased quite a lot at this time, and Theodore could buy many items with the current Gold.
"System, can I ask you something?" While looking at the weapons in the system shop, Theodore talked to the system.
[What would the host like to ask?]
"Where can I collect this gold?" Theodore finally asked, finally answering the question that had long intrigued him.
[Gold, which is a medium of exchange in the system store, can be obtained from zombies that the host defeats]
"I guessed it. Luckily, I killed a lot of zombies before this," Theodore said with a sigh of relief. At least there were other benefits from the previous underground zombie attack.
After learning this, Theodore also focused on looking at the goods in the system store. Although he had previously seen some items he wanted, he was still looking for other items that might be more useful.
For weapons, Theodore saw some crossbows that they could use to replace Madeline’s men’s firearms.
In addition, Theodore saw that many kinds of arrows were sold in the system store. If they could utilize these arrows, Theodore was sure they could easily penetrate the hordes of zombies that filled the streets.
"The system shop is indeed very impressive!" Theodore smiled widely, truly happy to have this feature of the system.
After choosing about 8 crossbows and 4 kinds of arrows, Theodore returned to looking at items that might be useful for his group.
Actually, Theodore intended to buy something like bombs and items that could strengthen the car they were driving so that it would be easier for them to protect themselves from the zombie horde.
Moreover, Theodore thought that their truck, which had a lot of goods, needed more protection at this time. They would lose a lot if they couldn’t save the car from the zombies’ pursuit.
"But, the problem is, is there such a thing?" Theodore was still determining if there would be any such items in this system store. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Because he didn’t expect much, Theodore was just idly scrolling through the system shop window to see what he could buy, and finally, he unexpectedly found an interesting item.
"Elastic magic barrier? The name is awful," said Theodore with a sour face as he looked at the item’s name before him.
Although the name sounded strange, Theodore was completely stunned by the effect the item had. Without thinking, he immediately put the item in his basket, intending to buy it.
The item was actually a magic scroll, so Theodore decided to buy 12 of them. Each scroll was effective for 4 hours, so considering their group had 3 cars, with 12 magic scrolls, they could last for 16 hours.
[Elastic Magic Barrels | Magic Scrolls
A magic scroll that can shield any object.
This scroll will last for 4 hours, and the scroll effect can be stacked]
"Here is the item I was looking for! With this, our journey will become easier!" Theodore clenched his fist when he found an item to help his journey back to the base.
Theodore finally bought all the items that he had put in his basket. All the items cost 8589 gold, leaving Theodore with only 1228 gold currently in his system store account.
"At least my money was spent on useful items," Theodore muttered as he sighed tiredly.
When Theodore came to his senses, he could hear the sound of people chatting from the stairs, and soon, he could see Madeline’s men upstairs, their faces brighter than before.
Theodore guessed that they had gotten enough rest and that it was time for them to take turns guarding the upper floor.
"You’ve finally come. I’ll leave the monitoring to you!" Theodore hurriedly got up from his position and walked quickly downstairs.
Madeline’s men saw Theodore’s quick movement and could only stare at him in confusion. They did not even have time to greet him because he seemed to be in such a hurry.
"I still want to ask about the conditions down there."
"It looks like he’s in a hurry. Let it go. After all, the Boss also wants to discuss something with him."
Not bothering about Theodore’s behavior, they decided to go to their respective places and started monitoring the movement there.
Theodore heard Madeline’s voice when they arrived downstairs, who was having a heated discussion with Cassian.
"What are you discussing?" Theodore walked over to join their heated discussion.
"It’s about that arrow you mentioned," Madeline replied with a dark look.
"You came up with this idea," Cassian sighed.
"So what, you can’t make arrows out of metal?" Theodore tilted his head in confusion.
"Of course, I can’t. How could I make arrows anyway," Cassian replied while rolling his eyes lazily.
"But you can manipulate metal, right?" This time, we heard Madeline yelling at Cassian.
It seemed like Cassian was very tired of talking to Madeline; he could only sigh as he was tired of explaining this matter to Madeline.
"I can only shape things that I’ve made. And I’ve never made an arrow, so how can I make one," Cassian explained again with great patience.
Theodore could see that Madeline was ready to explode in anger. Not wanting that to happen, Theodore quickly dealt with the matter.
"You don’t need to make a crossbow, Cassian. I already have the crossbows for us; it’s just that we might need more arrows. Can. Can you make them?" Theodore quickly took out 8 arrows he had bought from the system store.
"As long as I have the samples, I can make them," Cassian replied, nodding.
Then, Theodore took out one ordinary arrow he had bought and gave it to Cassian.
For a while, Cassian looked at the arrow in his hand, closing his eyes to feel its structure. Soon, he opened his eyes and looked at Theodore.
"I can make it, but since I can only manipulate metal, the arrow will be made of metal, and I will try to make it as light as possible," Cassian explained after that.
"It doesn’t matter as long as we can produce a lot of arrows to deal with the zombies out there," Theodore replied, nodding his head in understanding.
It was at that moment that Madeline’s cold voice was heard.
"Then, where did you get all these crossbows?" Madeline was now looking at Theodore with a suspicious gaze. She couldn’t understand where Theodore got all this stuff from.
