SCP Corporation: Contain Bonfire -
Chapter 734 - 734 527
Chapter 734: 527 Chapter 734: 527 During those few times before, Colin remembered the items he acquired were either damaged or plain, with only a few green ones, let alone purple ones. He hadn’t expected this time to have the most items with purple names.
“That’s true, the quality of the things I offered in the last trade was pretty high, so it’s only fair some good stuff should come out of it.”
Colin muttered, although in terms of official offerings, all were “difficult problems,” the kind of anomalies that are hard to deal with.
But it’s precisely because they’re hard to deal with that they seem high in quality.
As he flipped through the dozen or so item documents like poker cards, his gaze skimmed over each document, quickly getting a rough idea of what these things were for.
“The effects are okay, but seem a bit lacking, and the overlap rate of some equipment effects seems quite high?”
Colin furrowed his brows as he held the documents.
For example, a purple-named item called “Surefire Rifle” – its effect stated that within three thousand kilometers, as long as you aim and shoot at a photo with the target’s birth date and name, you could snipe the enemy commander from eight hundred li away with a single bullet.
However, the bullet seemed impressive only on paper because it would fire from any random point a hundred meters away from the target. Though the bullet wouldn’t emerge from underground and would choose an angle that wasn’t obstructed on its own.
But this device couldn’t be enchanted with additional effects, and its power largely depended on the bullet’s material…
And for Extraordinary Ones…
Most bullets they can produce are enough to get a reaction within a hundred meters.
So it’s like it’s somewhat useless but also a bit useful – it’s damn tied up in complex rules. If you say it’s useful, it’s not greatly so.
“Out of the eight purple items, three are similar… rifle, bow, zither, huh?”
Colin was taken aback as he found something unexpected in the similar item descriptions:
“A zither? Playing a tune while targeting a photo of an enemy thousands of kilometers away? Every object within a hundred meters of the target can hear the instrument’s sound – what’s with this humorous effect? Don’t tell me they’re mocking me…”
Playing a song for someone from a thousand li away while you’re a thousand li away yourself?
“This is the first time I’ve seen such uselessness among purple items…”
He shook his head, feeling that these effects likely came from the same Containment Subject, pieced together with some other Containment Subjects.
It’s just that he didn’t know who the maker was, and once caught, would be in for a good talking to!
What he needs wasn’t shooting arrows from thousands of kilometers away; what he needs was something like a nuke or other explosive things that could be lobbed directly from a thousand li away – a long-range deployment well!
Taking a deep breath, Colin turned his attention to the other items’ information.
The few others were fairly standard and usually battle-oriented, such as a Severed Finger that could unleash a thunderstorm within a certain area, or a flag that could control Flame, or a brain tentacle that could mount a psychic assault on an enemy, and could…
“Eh? What’s going on, why are so many of these human body parts?”
Colin scratched the back of his head, who was the maker this time?
Not noticing was one thing, but once he paid attention, he realized almost half consisted of various limbs.
Looking at a document, which had a sketch of a Scepter that instead of having a gem at the top, was embedded with a brain, Colin was somewhat speechless.
No, more accurately, the Scepter was formed by the brain’s tentacles entangled together like twisted pastries.
The document specifically mentioned that this brain Scepter could be launched to automatically attack and so on.
“If you take this out for a fight, it doesn’t exactly seem on the up and up…”
Colin pursed his lips and after reviewing all the purple items, he then turned his gaze to the green ones.
Among these, there was a support item that could temporarily boost one’s physique.
Although the boost wasn’t very high for him, it was quite suitable for keeping the lives of ordinary people hanging on.
After going through all thirteen documents, Colin picked up his phone and notified Xu Duojin, telling him that the trade settlement had arrived and they arranged a time to come and collect it.
About half an hour later, Xu Duojin, wearing sunglasses, knocked on the door punctually – not a second early, not a second late.
Upon seeing Colin, he revealed a smile like that of a farmer reaping a good harvest—
He had been waiting for so long, and this little bro finally got some Explode Equipment again!
The equipment he had received before was worth far more than it seemed. Although a lot of it wasn’t fully understood, some of the design ideas gave them quite the insight.
“Have a seat.”
Pointing to the sofa, Colin handed over all ten item documents to Xu Duojin without missing a single one.
“The documents explain the items, as well as the items themselves. If you want to take them out, get an Employee to press their thumb in the blank confirmation space below, and the item will be retrieved.”
“As for usage, it’s pretty much the same as before, once taken out, ownership belongs to that Employee, but they can authorize in any way the use to non-company personnel…”
Colin briefly explained the purpose of these items.
“Alright.” Xu Duojin, still wearing his sunglasses, scrutinized the content on them.
He examined them in detail, nodding occasionally, mostly inferring from the described features and negative effects on the documents that these items were made using the Containment Subjects they had previously sent over.
They tried to destroy those things but couldn’t, only to find out that within a few days, the company had turned them into items again.
After looking through them, Xu Duojin showed a satisfied smile, as he was quite pleased with all the items listed there.
