boom! boom!

At the same time that Qin Ran threw out his body armor, the fraudster fired.

Even if the line of sight is blocked, Qin Ran cannot be seen clearly.

Even in order to avoid the body armor that hit him, the shooting position is not comfortable enough.

However, the physical instinct formed after countless trainings still allowed the fraudster to hit Qin Ran—two bullets pierced through Qin Ran's legs respectively, and none of them missed the target.

However, Kieran, who had been injected with [analgesic], couldn't feel any pain at all, and rolled out of the hiding place as if he hadn't been shot.

"You passed up a great opportunity!"

The fraudster looked coldly at his legs as if they were not injured, and Qin Ran, who quickly distanced himself from him, became more and more murderous in his heart - the fraudster naturally knew why Qin Ran was able to do this!

[Analgesic]!

It was he who gave Qin Ran the [painkiller]!

Kieran used his items to plot against him, which made the fraudster feel humiliated!

The strong sense of humiliation made the fraudster want to shoot Qin Ran to death right now!

However, he remembered his mission.

So, just a second later, the fraudsters decide!

He wants to teach Qin Ran a good lesson.

Not only let Qin Ran understand the power of captives, but also let Qin Ran understand the obligations of captives.

He is a master of torture.

There are at least a hundred punishments in his mind!

And just when the fraudster was about to pick a few punishments as Qin Ran's appetizer, he suddenly saw a smile that shouldn't have appeared on Qin Ran's face.

Instinctively, the fraudster senses that something is wrong.

Looking down, he saw a grenade.

Subconsciously, the fraudster will dodge.

But... it's too late!

boom!

[U-Ⅱ] The explosive flames of the grenade completely enveloped the fraudster.

Even Qin Ran in the distance was affected.

Fortunately, it was just a gust of wind from the flames, not deadly shrapnel.

But fraudsters are not so lucky!

The opponent who was completely covered by the explosion of the [U-Ⅱ] grenade, his whole body was smashed, was much more miserable than the rebel leader who was assassinated by the opponent before.

[Shooting: The opponent inflicts 20 points of damage to your life...]

[Shooting: The opponent inflicts 20 points of damage to your life...]

[You are in a state of moderate injury...]

[Your legs are disabled...]

[Analgesics are immune to injury status and disability status within three minutes...]

[Explosion: Causes 150 life damage to the opponent, and the opponent dies...]

Looking at the combat information records, Kieran was first thankful for the excellent effect of the [Pain Relief], without the [Pain Relief], even if his plan could succeed, it would not be as straightforward as it is now.

At least, it will be affected by the explosion of the [U-Ⅱ] grenade.

If he was unlucky, given that he only had 40 health points left, he might be game over.

"fortunately!"

Kieran rejoiced once again, and then his eyes were attracted by the battle information that followed.

"150 health points?!"

Kieran looked at the fraudster's health in surprise.

From the gun-wielding thugs he encountered at the beginning to the rebel soldiers before him, including himself, the health value was 100, and there was never a single exception.

But now, a fraudster with 150 health points unexpectedly appeared.

"Is it because of his extraordinary physique? Or is it an elite model?"

Qin Ran guessed.

However, before Qin Ran could continue to think, he was attracted by the information that came out later.

[Kill enemies with gunpowder weapons (light firearms) (entry level)...]

[Skill Gunpowder Weapon (Light Firearms) (Basic→Introduction)]

[Name: Gunpowder Weapon (Light Firearms) (Introduction)]

[Related attributes: strength, constitution, perception]

[Skill Category: Attack]

[Effect: If you know how to use pistols, rifles, muskets, assault rifles, submachine guns and sniper rifles, the destructive power will increase by 20%]

[Deplete power]

[Learning conditions: strength F, physique F, perception F+]

[Remarks: You can use light firearms, comparable to veterans in the army!]

[Skill gunpowder weapon (light firearms) is improved, related attributes are improved...]

[Strength F→F+]

[Constitution F→F+]

[Perception has reached this type of skill, the current level can be increased to the upper limit, and cannot be improved!]

A clear warm current began to flow through Qin Ran's body, and more knowledge about firearms also appeared in his mind, and with that warm current, Kieran grasped it at a faster speed.

When the warm current disappeared, Kieran could obviously feel stronger and more powerful.

Moreover, what is more important is the change of life value.

60!

From the original 40 points of health to 60 points, it is obvious that this increase is due to the increase in physical fitness.

"Increase your physique by one level, and add 20 health points?"

"Sure enough, as I guessed, skills and attributes are inseparable!"

"However, is the upgrade of the current skills due to the 'benefits' of the novice dungeon, or the normal upgrade rules?"

Qin Ran frowned slightly.

He is leaning towards the former.

Because, if it's the latter, it's really too simple—even if it's really difficult to do it, it's like he's facing a fraudster.

Strength and experience are completely in a state of being crushed.

If it wasn't for good luck and the other party asked for something, Qin Ran knew exactly what would happen to him.

But there's nothing wrong with saying it's 'too easy'!

Because, creatures like players are really the most creative and adventurous group of people.

Are Fraudsters Powerful

The answer is: very powerful!

If Qin Ran wants to confront the opponent head-on, the chance of winning is completely negligible!

But if Qin Ran is given enough time, he has no less than three ways to kill him!

Although it will cost a lot, Kieran doesn't care about upgrading skills and improving attributes.

Therefore, Kieran believed in players like him and didn't care.

Under such a premise, the method of "killing those with a higher level of skill, the skill can be upgraded" seems to be only valid for novice "dungeons".

Otherwise, game designers would be remiss.

However, this does not mean that Kieran has no chance!

Previously, the quick and powerful method hadn't worked in the face of the captured gunmen, but Kieran didn't give up.

And now, he saw hope again.

"Kill someone with a higher level of skill?"

Qin Ran murmured in a low voice, then clenched his fists violently.

He has a new idea!

Of course, not now!

For him now, the most important thing is to let himself recover quickly.

Although the skill [Gunpowder Weapon (Light Firearms)] has been increased by one level, and the attribute strength and constitution have also been increased by one level, but this does not change the fact that his health is still below the average.

Once the effect of the [Analgesic] disappears, he will inevitably fall into an extremely difficult environment.

Therefore, before the effect of the [Analgesic] disappears, the health must be raised to a qualified line.

But before that, Kieran came to the body of the fraudster and examined it carefully.

Even though the corpse in front of him was bloody and bloody, it didn't mean there was no gain.

In fact, when Qin Ran turned the corpse over, he had already discovered—

A palm-sized book that exudes lavender light.

"Skill Book?!"

Qin Ran blurted out instinctively.

Obviously, in a 100% real game, some game settings still exist.

Qin Ran picked up the skill book emitting purple light.

[Discovery Skill Book: Tracking!]

[Do you want to study?]

"study!"

Without hesitation, Kieran gave an affirmative choice.

[Learning Skill: Tracking]

[Name: Tracking (Basic)]

[Attribute related: Perception]

[Skill Category: Assist]

[Effect: You track the target you want to track by observing the traces!]

[Deplete power]

[Learning condition: Perception F+]

[Remarks: You are not as good as a hound's nose!]

In an instant, it was another knowledge instillation and body coordination.

When everything was over, Kieran's eyes widened. In his eyes at this moment, the world became different, and some things that he had ignored before became clear in an instant.

Footprints, traces, appear white.

Blood, turning bright red.

The traces of the explosion are deep black.

When Qin Ran blinked, everything returned to normal, and when he focused again, his eyes began to change again.

"Active skill?"

Qin Ran commented like this.

However, the slight tingling pain on his body told him that the effect of the [Analgesic] was about to disappear.

Immediately, Qin Ran took the fraudster's purse and ran towards the place where he hid the canned food.

The corpse of the fraudster has nothing to gain except the unexpected skill book.

What made Qin Ran most regrettable was that after inspection, the special 'sniper rifle' had been completely damaged by the explosion of the grenade.

This made Qin Ran feel sad for a while.

It's not that Qin Ran didn't want to protect this special 'sniper rifle', but because of the previous situation, he couldn't protect himself at all.

But immediately, Qin Ran thought of the rebel soldier sniper who he had killed before.

The opponent has a real sniper rifle in his hand!

Thinking of this, Qin Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

When the level of the skill [Gunpowder Weapon (Light Firearms)] was improved, his need for a sniper rifle became more and more urgent.

Because, Qin Ran knew very well that in the face of a large number of rebel soldiers, sniper rifles were safer and more effective than any other firearms!

What's more, his slightly changed plan later needs a good sniper rifle!

"General Janning?"

Qin Ran muttered in a low voice.

Obviously, this is an OSS that can improve the customs clearance evaluation more than that Mr. Major.
