Bai Ye clasped his hands together in prayer towards the spot where Dr. Harding had been eaten.
Although he had perished within a second of leaving Jurassic Park, he had at least enjoyed one second of freedom.
Furthermore, Dr. Harding's demise had led Bai Ye to discover something good: he had found his way.
"This should be the Red Mud Marsh, right?"
Bai Ye's objective was the uncanny region, or more accurately, the Red Mud Marsh area within the uncanny region. Its periphery was guarded by numerous strange spirits that would attack from underground or the marsh mud.
Previously, Bai Ye had inexplicably gotten lost and ended up in Jurassic Park. After traversing Jurassic Park, he found himself having circled back.
Upon entering the Red Mud Marsh, Bai Ye recognized the path. However, he wasn't in a hurry. He had accompanied Dr. Harding all along with little rest time, and Bai Ye needed to adjust his condition.
Thus, he proceeded along the barbed wire fence, found a relatively dry and safe spot, and sat down by the fence to rest.
Bai Ye ate two cans of food, then took out a roll of thin wire, strung some stones onto it, and set up a simple warning trap. He then sat back down in front of the barbed wire, feigning sleep.
Resting in the wilderness was a dangerous affair. There were sudden perils, and other chosen ones who would want to end your life.
However, Bai Ye's luck seemed to be quite good. He slept soundly and nothing happened.
By the time he woke up, Bai Ye's mental state had clearly improved.
This was, of course, thanks to the T-virus strengthening his physique. With improved physical fitness, increases in strength, speed, stamina, and resilience were merely superficial. Beyond these, there were also some hidden improvements, such as heightened senses and enhanced recovery abilities.
Bai Ye stretched. He could continue his journey now, but there was something more important to do before setting off.
That was…
Drawing from the gacha machine!
A new day called for a new gacha draw.
A giant gacha machine materialized beside Bai Ye. As he rinsed his mouth with water, he spun the machine.
The first draw was a vibrant green, nothing particularly special. Bai Ye opened it to find a slip of paper, an ability.
Hexagonal Prism Shield (Ability) (Green): Creates a hexagonal prism shield for defense. Each time the shield shatters, it requires six seconds to re-condense.
A defensive ability. Although it was green, Bai Ye found it quite good. Currently, Bai Ye lacked many defensive means, only possessing Earth Curse's Earth Wall and Frost Condensing Sword's Ice Barrier and Ice Wall. However, Earth Curse required burning Dao talismans, and Frost Condensing Sword needed prior positioning. Both required a certain setup time, and both were fixed-point defenses with significant limitations.
The Hexagonal Prism Shield offered mobile defense, like a shield. Although it took six seconds to re-condense after shattering, its setup time was shorter than the Earth Wall and Ice Wall, and it condensed instantly before breaking.
As Bai Ye pondered, he spun the gacha machine again.
The next moment, Bai Ye's eyes lit up.
As the gacha machine spun, a hint of black soon appeared before Bai Ye.
A black gacha capsule!
A black gacha capsule was certain to contain high-grade items!
Bai Ye quickly opened the capsule, and then a black gun case appeared before him.
"A gun?"
Guns were very useful weapons, especially in the early stages of the World Battlefield.
However, Bai Ye felt that guns had certain limitations, otherwise, there wouldn't be various types of firearms. It was precisely because different firearms were needed to counter firearms. But regardless, this was a high-grade firearm…
Bai Ye couldn't help but lick his lips. This wasn't just an ordinary firearm from a modern civilization world; it was a firearm from a future technology world!
Bai Ye couldn't wait to open the gun case, and a black shotgun appeared before him.
"This is…" Bai Ye's eyes brightened as he exclaimed, "A Benelli M1014?"
Bai Ye excitedly took the gun out of the case.
This was also a famous gun!
However, upon handling it, Bai Ye found that the shotgun before him differed somewhat from the Benelli M1014 he remembered. The current shotgun was longer and thicker. The muzzle's shape was unlike ordinary firearms; it resembled a plum blossom, and it had an integrated slot with a small disc in the center.
In addition to the shotgun itself, the gun case contained a row of eight crystal blocks, a sling, and a…
Gun mount!
It was a grenade launcher mount, just much smaller, corresponding to the size of the shotgun. A rail on the underside of the gun could connect to it.
Why would a shotgun need a grenade launcher mount?
Was it intended to launch the shotgun itself like a grenade?
With his doubts, Bai Ye looked at the information displayed on the holographic screen.
Dragon's Roar (Benelli M1014 Shotgun) (Black): A semi-automatic shotgun designed based on the classic Benelli M1014 shotgun. It weighs 3.53 kg, uses TD200 energy cells as its power source. Each crystal can fire 52 shots. Its normal range is 55 meters, and in artillery mode, its range is 380 meters.
Effects: ROAR (Can switch Dragon's Roar to artillery mode, releasing all the energy from the energy cells at once. It can perform a straight bombardment or a parabolic drop, bombarding a designated area.) DESTROY (Doubles energy cell consumption, granting the energy beam piercing and armor-penetrating effects.) ASSAULT (Can continuously fire energy beams without intervals until the energy crystals are depleted or you release the trigger. Each use of Assault requires a nine-minute cooldown for Dragon's Roar.) PRECISION (When switched to artillery mode, it can track targets at specific points. Upon hit, the energy damage is halved.) BLADE (Condenses an energy bayonet at the muzzle for close-quarters combat. Each energy crystal lasts for 35 minutes.)
Bai Ye was thrilled. It was truly a weapon from future technology, powered by energy crystals instead of ordinary bullets.
"This is good stuff!"
Bai Ye felt his luck had turned around. It was indeed a black gacha capsule!
As for the last gacha capsule, Bai Ye decided not to draw it. After obtaining the Divine Stone Fragment, Bai Ye made it a habit to save one gacha draw each day. This could be used at a critical moment, depending on the situation, or consumed to draw using the Divine Stone Fragment. In dire straits, it could turn the tide.
Putting away the Dragon's Roar, Bai Ye picked up his backpack and continued on his way.
Bai Ye's current objective was…
The uncanny region, the Red Mud Marsh, and the Death Amusement Park!
