Assassin at Range: The Sniper's Lethal Power-Chapter 108 - : Destroyer S1

The Tide Giant Kamsaletor, as a Dark Gold Grade Boss, dropped not only a large number of items but also some of incredible quality.

What Tristan was referring to was one of these items — a blueprint.

[Destroyer S1 Blueprint (Dark Gold Grade)]

[Material Requirements: Power Core x10, Activated Source Steel Ingots x20, Titan Steel x100...]

[Note: The Destroyer S1 can only be used by the creator.]

Just reading the material requirements was enough to give anyone a headache. Tristan recognized the materials, but because of this, he knew just how expensive it would be to create the Destroyer.

Of course, this also meant the Destroyer S1’s combat power would be nothing to scoff at.

What was most critical, however, was that the Destroyer S1 blueprint marked the beginning of the entire Destroyer mech series. If you didn’t learn the S1 blueprint, you wouldn’t be able to learn subsequent blueprints like S2, S3, and so on.

Finding this blueprint dropped from a boss was a surprise. Although it was possible in random drops, it was still quite early for the second Dark Gold Grade Boss to appear.

Tristan vaguely remembered that in his past life, the first S1 blueprint had dropped from the fifth or sixth Dark Gold Grade Boss. At the time, it had been GemmaS who acquired it, marking the start of her path as a mechanical engineer.

After thinking for a moment, Tristan sent the Destroyer S1 blueprint to GemmaS.

GemmaS’s eyes lit up immediately, filled with desire. She grabbed Tristan’s arm, completely ignoring her image, and urgently said, "Big Boss, quick, give it to me!"

Tristan’s forehead twitched.

"You’re making it sound like something else…"

After a brief pause, Tristan said, "I’ll give it to you, but I have one condition."

GemmaS immediately asked, "What condition? Just say it, Big Boss. As long as it’s not something too outrageous, I’ll agree."

Tristan chuckled. "It’s nothing difficult. It’s simple: once I start my guild, you’ll join me, and you can’t leave for two years."

GemmaS was stunned.

She wasn’t surprised by the harshness of the condition, but by how lenient it was.

This was a Dark Gold Grade blueprint! Sure, the material requirements were high, but once it was crafted, the Destroyer’s combat power would be the envy of all.

Not only could it easily solo a Dark Gold Grade Boss, but it could also effortlessly handle a Gold Grade Boss. And that meant continuous profits!

Compared to that, committing to two years in a guild was nothing. It was like being given something for free.

GemmaS looked at Tristan again, her curiosity piqued. She couldn’t help but ask, "Are you being so nice to me because you want to hit on me?"

Then, lowering her voice, she muttered, "From the images that leaked from the newbie village, he’s actually quite handsome. I guess I wouldn’t mind. Maybe I’ll agree…"

Tristan, hearing her mumble, deadpanned, "What are you thinking? This is called value investing! With your talent, forget two years, you’ll easily pay back the value of this blueprint in six months, and after that, the next year and a half will be pure profit. When you break it down, I’ll still be making more."

"Plus, this Destroyer blueprint isn’t just being handed out. Once you join my guild, if there’s ever a problem, you’ll need to step in and help, got it?"

"If others in the guild get into trouble, you’ll need to take the Destroyer and help them out."

GemmaS finally understood, realizing that the deal was more beneficial for her than it appeared at first.

Hearing Blackshade’s confidence in her, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of curiosity. "You really have that much faith in me?"

Although she felt that ExoGenesis was a perfect match for her, and the mechanic class was an ideal fit, she was still uncertain about how far she could go. But here was Blackshade, not only acknowledging her but even offering a Dark Gold Grade blueprint.

Lost in thought, GemmaS, still dazed, accepted the deal and mindlessly placed the Destroyer blueprint into her inventory.

Once the trade was complete, GemmaS suddenly snapped out of her daze and exclaimed, "Blackshade, this... this can’t be right!"

Tristan waved his hand dismissively. "You’ve got my blueprint now, so you’re part of my crew. Wait for the news about my guild."

"Ah, well, I…"

GemmaS was flustered.

Her mind couldn’t quite catch up with the situation.

Tristan didn’t disturb her, instead continuing to examine the loot.

[Tidebreaker Heavy Helm: Dark Gold Grade, Defense +1000, Health +3000, Constitution +150, Level Requirement: 25, Strength > 300]

[Special Effect 1: Fortitude: Defense +2000]

[Special Effect 2: Steadfast: Immune to knockback effects]

A typical tank piece of equipment.

But with Tristan’s stats, he could wear it easily.

The only downside was that it was a bit heavy, so his movement wouldn’t be as quick.

However, before Tristan could decide whether to equip it, the next item caught his attention and ended his indecision.

[Crown of the Deep: Dark Gold Grade, Defense +1000, Health +3000, Agility +150, Level Requirement: 25, Agility > 300]

[Special Effect 1: Lightfoot: Agility +150]

[Special Effect 2: Far Sight: Increases vision range by 50%]

This was an armor piece that boosted Agility by 300 and also increased the vision range. Its attributes were perfect for Tristan.

With the Sniper God talent, Tristan could ensure that every shot he took was a guaranteed hit, as long as he locked onto the target.

Incredibly powerful.

The only caveat was that the target needed to be visible. If the battlefield reduced his field of vision, his effectiveness would be severely hindered.

But now, with the Crown of the Deep, that wouldn’t be a problem.

Tristan quickly equipped it.

His Agility shot up to 1086, marking a massive jump from three-digit to four-digit stats.

The Tide Giant had dropped six pieces of loot, and three still remained to be checked.

Tristan’s gaze moved to the next item.

[Tidebreaker Dagger: Dark Gold Grade, Attack Power +1800, Agility +150, Level Requirement: 25, Agility > 300]

[Special Effect 1: Wavebreaker: Attack comes with a knockback effect]

[Special Effect 2: Tidebreaker: Allows movement toward the target]

A dagger.

Tristan couldn’t help but wonder why the bulky Tidebreaker would carry such a weapon. Was he opening oysters with it?

But whatever the reason, the dagger’s attributes were undeniable.

With 1800 attack power, it was ridiculously high for a dagger. For comparison, Bone Crusher’s War Hammer, a two-handed Dark Gold Grade weapon for level 20, only had 2000 attack power, just a little higher than this dagger.

Of course, the Bone Crusher’s War Hammer had armor-piercing and heavy strike effects to increase damage, but the Tidebreaker Dagger had its own perks. It was a dagger, and Assassins could dual-wield them.

On top of that, the dagger had an inherent mobility skill.

With that, Tristan’s Bone-Cutting Twin Daggers could finally retire.

He equipped the Black Tide Poison Dagger along with the Tidebreaker Dagger, and instantly, his attack power skyrocketed.

It jumped from 1134 to 3064 — almost a threefold increase.

Moreover, swapping out weapons also gave Tristan a nearly 200-point boost in Agility.

It was the perfect example of upgrading from a bird gun to a cannon.
