Chapter 39 AWM Sniper Rifle Blueprints? Is this still a game with a similar art style?

【Ding dong! 】

You have arrived near your destination.

The next afternoon, the central control screen lit up, and a line of green text emerged from the depths of the screen. Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and immediately slowed down. He looked ahead, his gaze falling on the wasteland not far away.

"Is this where the treasure map is located?"

Lin Xuan took out the treasure map, glanced at the treasure location on it, and according to the instructions, the location was in the wasteland not far away. "You guys sit in the car for a while!"

Lin Xuan parked the car on the side of the road, then glanced at the group behind him and said, "I'll go check it out!"

As he spoke, he picked up the treasure map and got out of the car. Just then, the back door was pushed open, and Ye Ning'er climbed out of the car.

"I'll be with you."

She tied her hair up in a high ponytail and walked to Lin Xuan's side. Wei Xuan glanced at her, pondered for a moment, and then nodded. "Let's go!"

He took out the treasure map and glanced at it again. After confirming the direction, he headed straight for the target location. Ye Ning'er followed closely behind. She smoothed her disheveled hair and kept her gaze fixed on the reassuring figure in front of her. "Lin Xuan—"

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Lin Xuan didn't turn around, and casually replied, "Um—I wanted to ask—was the one I was talking to before you—?"

Ye Ning'er, holding up her sleeves, mumbled that she had previously had several transactions with a man named "Lin Xuan" in a private chat channel. He was quite enthusiastic towards her and had even helped her when she urgently needed medical supplies. At that time, she wondered if this "Lin Xuan" was the same "Lin Xuan" she knew!

"It's me!"

Lin Xuan turned around, glanced at her, and said with a faint smile, "Thank you!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Ning'er's heart raced. She pursed her lips, and two delicate blushes instantly rose on her originally fair face. After stammering for a while, she finally managed to utter two words: "I didn't expect that the other party had helped me several times in the dark." "It's alright, the treasure is just ahead, let's hurry!"

Lin Xuan withdrew his gaze and turned to continue walking deeper into the wasteland.

Ye Ning'er followed behind him, looking down at his footsteps. Her ear tips were still red, but the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as faint as the ripples on a lake when the first spring breeze blows. The weeds on the wasteland grew denser and denser, from ankle height to knee height. Lin Xuan slowed down and scanned his surroundings—the location marked on the treasure map was nearby, and it should be in this area.

He took out the treasure map and looked at it again, then looked up and his gaze fell on a slightly raised mound not far ahead.

The mound wasn't high, about two meters, and was covered with withered yellow weeds, not much different from the surrounding wasteland. "That should be it."

Lin Xuan stuffed the treasure map into his pocket and walked towards the mound.

Just then, a grayish-white figure suddenly darted out from behind the mound, moving with lightning speed. It was on all fours, its back arched high. It was the Licker they had encountered on the road earlier. When it pounced out from behind the mound, its terrifying face was right in front of Lin Xuan. Its gaping mouth, split to the back of its head, revealed two rows of jagged yellow teeth. Saliva trailed silver threads in the air, and its tongue, longer than its body, flicked through the air like a grayish-white snake before coiling towards Lin Xuan's neck.

"This is----"

Upon seeing the ferocious creature before her, Ye Ning'er's pupils dilated violently. She clearly remembered that this was a Licker, a mid-level mutated creature, whose power was among the top of all mid-level mutated creatures. But this was a monster that only appeared at night, so how could it appear here during the day!

"Lin Xuan, run—"

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Xuan had already walked up on foot. Last night, he used that "advanced body enhancement agent," and his physical fitness was far beyond that of a normal person. He just happened to have no opportunity to find someone to test himself on, and this Licker just happened to come to his door!

As the Licker charged forward, Lin Xuan's lips curled into a faint smile. He clenched his fist, unleashing a fierce gust of wind, and smashed it towards the Licker's head. Instantly, a cracking sound came from the Licker's head. Without hesitation, Lin Xuan kicked it down again, sending the Licker flying like a ball. He glanced down at the struggling Licker on the ground, his brow furrowing slightly.

He shook the blood off his hands, drew his Desert Eagle from his waist, and fired another shot at the Licker's head.

"Bang—"

Gunshots rang out across the empty wasteland, their echoes reverberating in the air for quite some time.

The licker never stood up again, clearly having lost all vitality!

Ye Ning'er, who was standing to the side, was stunned when she saw this scene. He defeated the Licker with his bare hands.

Is this still the power that humanity should possess?

She wouldn't have believed it before, but now this shocking scene was unfolding before her eyes. "Let's go, the treasure is just ahead!"

Lin Xuan glanced at the Licker's corpse on the ground, then his gaze fell on the mound not far in front of him. Ye Ning'er stood there, watching his back, and it took her several seconds to come back to her senses. She then jogged after him. Lin Xuan walked to the top of the mound and scanned the ground beneath his feet. There was a patch of grass in the weeds that was shorter than the surrounding grass, as if it had been pressed down by something. He squatted down, reached out and pushed aside the short grass, revealing a silver-white treasure chest underneath.

The treasure chest wasn't large, about one square meter. "Is this the treasure?"

"I wonder what good stuff is inside!"

Lin Xuan pressed the treasure map onto the treasure chest, "Click!"

With a crisp sound, the silver-white lid in front of you slowly and automatically opened. [Ding! Congratulations on opening the Ancient Treasure Chest (Silver Grade)! You have received the following rewards:]

"Huh? AWM?"

"6

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and looked at the weapon blueprint in front of him. This intermediate treasure chest actually yielded the AWM blueprint. Compared to his small pistol, was this still a game with a different art style?

Ye Ning'er peeked out from behind him and glanced at the drawing. "AWM? You mean that one—the one from PUBG?"

"I think so!"
