Chapter 181 Show Off The Results Of The Renovation
David's base was a common three-bedroom, one-living room layout, but it was twice the size of a regular room, spanning over three hundred square meters. Not only was the living room spacious, but the other rooms were also quite roomy.
Apart from upgrading the base's level, David had never made any improvements to the base before. He lacked ideal materials and didn't know where to start. Now, with the base remodeling function, these problems were easily solved.
Walking into the base, David surveyed everything inside. Based on his memories from his previous life, he knew that for a base to become the strongest sanctuary for survivors in the apocalypse, it needed to have functional facilities beyond basic shelter. It required living quarters, remodeling workshops, weapon workshops, and various other facilities. Only then could the base unleash its maximum potential in the apocalypse.
After inspecting each room, David opened the remodeling panel once again. Soon, his attention was drawn to the weapon workshop.
[Weapon Workshop: Helps the host remodel weapons and upgrade their power! ]
[Requires ten Desert Eagles, ten alloy steel plates, and five hundred rounds of 5.56mm caliber bullets]
Upon reading the description, David decided to start with this remodeling project. While he had a decent number of weapons in his warehouse system, they were mostly conventional and lacked exceptional power compared to the abilities of a Level 1 esper in combat.
David believed that if he could remodel them, they would undoubtedly become formidable killing machines. He understood the principle that anything from the system would be top-notch. So, with a thought, the blueprint for the weapon workshop appeared before his eyes.
Then, the system's voice came once again.
[Ding! Ten Desert Eagles, ten alloy steel plates, and five hundred rounds of 5.56mm caliber bullets have been consumed! ]
[The weapon workshop is under construction! ]
Suddenly, the design blueprint before David disappeared, followed by a deduction of the corresponding resources from the system's warehouse.
[Ding! The weapon workshop has been completed! ]
Soon, the sound of the completion of the weapon workshop echoed in David's ears. At the same time, a separate space appeared in a corner of the bedroom.
David walked over to inspect it and found not only a machine tool but also various tools that he couldn't name hanging on the walls. Looking at the weapon workshop, David nodded in approval and then took out a Desert Eagle.
"Remodel the Desert Eagle!" David gently placed the Desert Eagle on the machine tool and said softly. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a white aura swirling around the Desert Eagle. Under the influence of this aura, the Desert Eagle trembled slightly, and soon the white aura dissipated, leaving a faint glow on the gun's surface.
[Ding! The Desert Eagle has been remodeled! ]
[Magazine capacity increased by thirty rounds, bullet firing speed doubled, and a ten percent increase in critical hit rate! ]
Hearing the voice of the system, David held the remodeled Desert Eagle in his hand. As expected, after the modifications in the Weapon Workshop, the Desert Eagle now felt considerably lighter in weight, and the magazine was more prominent. Despite these changes, the gun didn't feel cumbersome at all but rather exuded a sense of dominance.
Outside the base, David aimed the Desert Eagle at a wall in the underground parking lot and pulled the trigger. The Desert Eagle emitted a cloud of smoke and produced a loud bang! At the moment the bullet was fired, sparks ignited at the muzzle, and the bullet rapidly shot toward the wall at supersonic speed. In the blink of an eye, the bullet struck the wall, resulting in a resounding roar!
As the dust settled, David approached to inspect the thick cement wall, only to find that the Desert Eagle had created a fist-sized hole in it! The steel reinforcement inside the wall was also shattered by the impact of the bullet. Looking at the hole, David couldn't help but take a sharp breath. He hadn't expected the remodeled Desert Eagle to possess such immense power. If it were fired at a zombie, there would undoubtedly be carnage.
Returning to the Weapon Workshop, David spent some resources to create five more Desert Eagles. With each member of the team now equipped with one, their combat effectiveness would be significantly increased. Then, David placed an alloy dagger on the machine table.
[Ding! Modifying the Alloy Dagger requires consuming ten pieces of steel, and five low-grade crystals.]
Without hesitation, David confirmed the modification, and the alloy dagger, just like the Desert Eagle before, was instantaneously remodeled.
[Ding! Alloy Dagger modification complete! ]
[Sharpness increased by 15%, destructive power doubled! ]
Observing the gleaming blade, David nodded in satisfaction. With these physical enhancements, he could greatly reduce his reliance on esper abilities in future battles, thereby saving a significant amount of energy. Next, David spent twenty alloy steel plates to remodel the base's main gate into a special alloy gate. Together with the base's current diamond level, it could be said that the base had become impregnable. Even if attacked by high-level zombies, it would likely remain unscathed.
At this moment, the other members of the team returned to the base. Upon seeing the transformed base walls, everyone was astonished.
"Damn! This base would make the zombies cry even in the midst of an apocalypse!" Arnold exclaimed, knocking on the diamond walls of the base.
Everyone approached to inspect, their expressions filled with amazement as they looked at David. David simply smiled faintly and then took out the five remodeled Desert Eagles.
"I made some small modifications to these Desert Eagles. Each of you can have one for self-defense." David handed the guns to his teammates, and they carefully examined them in their hands. Besides the increased magazine capacity, they couldn't discern any special features.
Duke aimed at a scrapped car in the distance and fired. Once again, the deafening roar echoed through the parking lot, followed by an explosion. The bullets, with a 10% critical hit rate, pierced through the car, reducing it to a blazing fireball. Everyone stood frozen in place, witnessing the scene.
What's going on? Is this even a gun? It's more like a doomsday cannon! Recalling that David had said he made only minor modifications, the team couldn't help but twitch their mouths. They hadn't expected their captain to be so extraordinary. This wasn't just a modification; it was like a research and development laboratory for new weapons! Who would believe that a single bullet could destroy a car? The team members looked at their Desert Eagles, treating them like precious treasures as they carefully cradled them in their arms.
