Chapter 10 Equipment Procurement

Considering the special nature of the mandrill.

Before arriving at the transfer station, Yu Ke had already contacted the prey handling agency opened by the Forestry Bureau.

As a forest ranger, he naturally received preferential treatment in such agencies.

After explaining his intention to the prey handling agency, a person in charge soon brought several staff members to the parking lot to carry the mandrill corpse and asked Yu Ke how to deal with it.

"Leave the tenderloin, I'll take it back to eat myself, and put the rest on consignment here. Help me find a good buyer."

Looking at the various prey handling options on the tablet in his hand, Yu Ke thought briefly and looked at the person in charge next to him and said.

Mandrills are mutant beasts, and their value has long been recognized by the outside world.

Yu Ke has no interest and no time to sell them himself, so after noticing that there is a consignment service here, he decisively chose it. It's nothing more than giving the Forestry Bureau a small commission, or there is a discount for internal staff, which is almost a free service.

Besides, in Yu Ke's opinion, the mandrill is just the beginning, and there will be more prey to be sold here in the future.

It doesn't hurt to familiarize yourself with the process in advance.

After saying goodbye to the person in charge, Yu Ke walked into the elevator leading to the upper floor and turned on his mobile phone to check his balance.

The previous online shopping caused the balance in his bank card to bottom out. After successfully hunting the mandrill, because it was a fierce beast on the wanted list of the Forest Defense Bureau, Yu Ke received a bounty of 100,000, and his wallet was enriched a lot.

If you have money on hand, you must spend it.

Yu Ke plans to make some purchases before the cold wave comes, and the most important thing is to buy suitable weapons and equipment.

The Heart of the Wilderness has improved Yu Ke's physical fitness in all aspects, so the original weapons obviously can no longer satisfy him.

For example, the Black Blade recurve bow on hand has a weight of 100 pounds, which is already a hunting bow that pursues power.

It can't meet Yu Ke's current needs at all.

With his current strength that can easily carry a mandrill, he can still use a recurve bow weighing more than 200 pounds with ease.

The power increase cannot be described by numbers alone. Even those large wild boars will be shot through by an arrow. If they are replaced with special arrows, it is easy to kill them with one arrow.

Ding~

The elevator reminder sound woke Yu Ke from his thoughts.

The metal door opened to both sides, and the scene on the upper floor of the transfer station came into Yu Ke's eyes.

Recently, it is the last hunting time before the cold wave comes, and the large-scale transfer station is particularly lively.

If it weren't for the distinctive characteristics of the people coming and going, it would be a large shopping mall in the wilderness.

Yu Ke strolled into the crowd and observed the surrounding situation.

Fully armed security forces patrolled everywhere, accompanied by mechanical dogs and drones to ensure the safety of the transfer station; groups of hunting group members traveled around the hall, spending the money they had recently earned, preparing to take the last action before the cold wave came or return to Danhang City after resting; waiters in shops stood at the door to promote goods, and a few stores had special billboards at the door, playing their own product advertisements with holographic projection.

The colorful lights projected by various advertising light boards reflected Yu Ke's lone back.

He was in the bustling crowd, but it seemed that there was a transparent barrier between him and the surroundings, rejecting everything that tried to approach.

Four giant screens were hung in the air in the central area of ​​the hall, pushing various information about the recent vicinity of Transfer Station No. 3, and a considerable number of tasks issued by major institutions, with information such as "accepted" and "completed" flashing from time to time at the end.

Yu Ke first went to the express delivery station, left his license plate number, and asked the staff to deliver the items he bought through the online mall to the trunk of the off-road vehicle, and then went straight to the weapons and equipment store opened by the General Administration of Disaster Prevention.

Forest rangers have discounts in such official stores, so it's a waste not to use them.

It must be said that the store of the General Administration of Disaster Prevention is far larger in scale and quantity than other private stores. As soon as Yu Ke entered the door, his eyes were attracted by the various weapons and equipment placed in different categories on the shelves.

From off-road boots to windbreakers, from close-range combat pistols to anti-material heavy sniper rifles, from flash stun grenades to high-explosive grenades, everything is available.

Of course, if you want to buy equipment here, you need to register your identity.

The arrival of the era of the Great Disaster has led to the rise of civilian hunting groups, but this does not mean that the official government will allow various weapons to circulate among the people.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

Yu Ke was just about to go to the area of ​​bows and firearms to switch, and a female salesperson came over and asked.

"I want to order a set of bows and arrows, a powerful shotgun and cold weapons, not daggers or short knives, but weapons that are more suitable for chopping."

Showing his forest ranger license, on the way to the transfer station, Yu Ke had already thought about the weapons and equipment he wanted to buy for this trip.

The Black Blade Recurve Bow must be replaced. In the forest hunting mission, long-range sniper weapons are indispensable. The bonus brought to Yu Ke by the Heart of the Wild is enough to make Yu Ke a master archer.

Of course, Yu Ke also considered buying a heavy sniper rifle directly.

However, he couldn't buy a good one with the money he had now, and he hadn't received any systematic sniper training. It was better to use a bow and arrow, which was more suitable for the combat environment in the jungle.

If the operation was good, the arrows shot out could be recovered, which saved a lot of money!

After learning about Yu Ke's request, the salesperson immediately took him to the mechanical model of the recurve bow used for testing in the store.

"Use your most commonly used posture to draw the bow, it will collect data by itself and match the most suitable bow and arrow system for you."

It is worthy of being an official weapon and equipment store, just right for testing his current arm strength.

With this thought, Yu Ke couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, stepped forward to grab the recurve bow model and pulled the bowstring with the greatest force. His strength has been increasing recently, and he doesn't even know how much he has reached now.

In the interval between drawing the bow, Yu Ke glanced at the salesperson next to him.

He found that her expression when checking the data changed from calm to puzzled, then to shock like seeing a monster, and finally changed back to calm.

"You should be a power-type superhuman. In fact, we have testing equipment specifically for superhumans."

The salesperson looked at Yu Ke helplessly and said.

The catastrophe caused large-scale mutations in plants and animals. Humans are also animals, so naturally a considerable number of individuals have also undergone mutations.

The existence of superhumans has long been no secret. There are many in the patrol team of the Forestry Bureau, and there are also people in the civilian hunting groups who have evolved by eating the meat of fierce beasts. Superhumans in official institutions basically have specific certificates and can enjoy more privileges.

"Well, I haven't completed the registration yet. In fact, my strength has increased inexplicably recently, so I want to change my weapons and equipment."

Yu Ke made up a random excuse and did not plan to report his becoming a superhuman to the Forestry Bureau for the time being, because he had just undergone a physical examination before joining the company, and he suddenly became a superhuman only two days later, which would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Fortunately, the testing equipment here is indeed complete. Under the guidance of the salesperson, Yu Ke quickly completed the data required for customizing the bow and arrow, and began to discuss other details.

Yu Ke actually had a template in mind for the bow and arrow he would use in the future.

That was the one used by Hawkeye in the superhero movie in the previous life, and it is entirely possible to reproduce it with the technology of this era.

This is indeed the case, but there is a small flaw.

"We can meet your requirements, but to realize the overall concept requires a lot of special materials, which will greatly increase the production cost of the bow and arrow, especially the arrows with time bombs or electric devices installed in your mouth, which need to be customized. Frankly speaking, the price may exceed your imagination, and your authority is not enough."

The salesperson glanced at Yu Ke's information on the tablet in his hand. He was just a one-star hunter and chose his words carefully.

"Ahem~ Just give me a normal set first, I'll use it first."

As a newly employed forest ranger hunter, Yu Ke's funds were not enough to complete a full set of customization of this level, so he could only settle for the second best.

After completing the selection of bows and arrows, Yu Ke quickly decided on the shotgun style for close-range combat.

As for the final choice of cold weapons, he already had a favorite target.

A long-handled axe similar to the one used by Kratos, the protagonist of God of War 4!

The battle with the mandrill made Yu Ke realize that the size of the hunting targets he would face in the future would basically be smaller than him, which made it difficult for the existing dog-leg knife to cause effective damage.

As for weapons such as long swords and long knives, Yu Ke always felt that they were still a little bit lacking.

Not as simple and crude as the long-handled axe.

The important thing is that the long-handled axe can also be used to chop wood, cut prey, and chop bones. It is multifunctional.
