Superbase Evolution

Chapter 18 Trap
It was similar to Lin Shen's estimation. The length of this thing should be more than three meters but less than four meters. It felt quite good to hold. After swinging it twice, it was surprisingly smooth. It really looked like a javelin with a special shape. It was surprisingly not very heavy, only about ten pounds, which was unexpectedly light.

For most people, wielding a weapon weighing more than ten pounds is already quite strenuous. Fortunately, Lin Shen has been using the base transformation fluid to strengthen himself. Although he has not undergone base transformation and his strength is not comparable to that of ordinary people, he has no problem wielding it.

"Uncle Cang, lend me this thing." Lin Shen looked at Cang Yun and said.

"Okay, sign it and take it away." Cang Yun was unexpectedly straightforward.

"Are you really going to let me take it away like this?" Lin Shen confirmed again with some disbelief. After all, this was a semi-crystalline material and its value was quite high.

Cang Yun smiled and said, "We don't have any equipment in our base that can smelt this kind of material. It's useless for you to take it away. You have to return it later."

"Okay, then I'll take it." Lin Shen signed and borrowed the item.

On the way back, Lin Shen was still thinking about whether he should go to the warehouses of Qi and Wang families to take a look, but he couldn't find a suitable excuse, and it was impossible for them to let him, a member of the Lin family, enter the warehouse.

"It's already a great fortune to have this harvest. I wonder what kind of spark it can bring me?" Lin Shen wished he could go back home immediately, lie on the bed and take a nap with it in his arms.

When I passed by my own shop, I found a lot of people gathered in the open space next to the Qi Tian Fu Easter Egg Shop, and I didn’t know what they were doing.

Lin Shen originally didn't want to get involved and just wanted to go home as soon as possible, but he found that Qi Tianfu was also in the crowd, cursing and looking very unhappy.

"What's going on over there?" Lin Shen came to the front of his shop and saw Zhao Li standing on the threshold, craning her neck to look over there, so he asked.

"Fifth brother, someone set up a ring-tossing stall next to the Easter egg shop and took away a lot of Fatty Qi's business. That guy is almost mad to death." Zhao Li said with a smile.

"Ring?" Lin Shen was a little surprised.

Of course he knew about the street game of ring tossing. You would find a place and put various prizes on the table. Those who wanted to play would pay for plastic rings, stand at the position marked by the stall owner and throw the plastic rings. If the rings caught the prizes, they could take them away.

This kind of street game is not uncommon and can be found in many markets. Some stall owners even give out genetically modified eggs as prizes, but this is not enough to surprise Lin Shen.

What really surprised Lin Shen was that someone actually dared to set up a stall next to Qi Tianfu’s store. The person who set up the stall was really brave.

What’s strange is that despite Qi Tianfu’s arrogant personality, he didn’t smash the other person’s stall.

Besides, how could a ring-tossing stall attract so many people to play? It’s not like no one has ever played the ring-tossing game before.

Lin Shen was curious, so he put the body of the mutant creature into the storage room, then went out and squeezed over there to take a look.

This sight immediately surprised Lin Shen.

This is indeed a ring-tossing stall, but there is only one prize.

A man was sitting on a chair with a genetically modified egg on his head. That was the only prize at this ring-tossing stall.

Many people who bought plastic rings stood outside the rope pulled by the stall owner, stretched out their hands and threw them over the man's head, hoping to catch the genetically modified egg.

At least seven or eight people were constantly throwing plastic rings, but even though the distance was only four or five meters, no one could catch the genetically modified egg on the man's head.

After someone had thrown all the circles in his hand, he immediately took out money and threw it into the box placed by the stall owner, and then took another circle to throw.

Lin Shen saw that the box said ten yuan per circle, which was not cheap.

The reason why so many people are willing to spend money to play is because the base mutation egg on the man's head is an alloy base mutation egg. Even if the alloy base mutation egg has poor properties, it can be sold for five figures. In comparison, this small amount of money is naturally nothing.

Among those who kept throwing circles was Qi Tianfu. He threw the circles while cursing under his breath, but he couldn't hit the target no matter what, and he was always a little off each time.

What really surprised Lin Shen was not these, but the stall owner who was sitting there with the genetically modified egg on his head. He was none other than Wei Wufu, who had performed very well at the recruitment meeting.

As an alloy-based transformer, it is actually very easy to make a little money. Just hunt some steel creatures and you can make money without taking too much risk. It is much better than making a little money by setting up a stall.

To put it another way, he only needs to join a certain force, and the money he can get every month will not be less than five figures.

Such a person actually set up a stall on the street. I don’t know what he was thinking.

Qi Tianfu did not attend the recruitment meeting. He obviously did not know Wei Wufu and was throwing circles and cursing at the same time.

If he knew that Wei Wufu was an alloy-based transformer, he would probably have behaved with more grace.

The more Lin Shen looked at it, the more strange it seemed. It was indeed difficult to put the ring on.

It is not easy to hit a target with a ring of 20 centimeters in diameter from four or five meters away, but it is not too difficult either.

Accuracy actually has little to do with strength. First, it depends on practice. After practicing for a long time, you will become more proficient and your accuracy will be much better.

The second is to rely on talent. If you want to be accurate, you just need to practice. If you want to be particularly accurate, you have to rely on talent.

To throw the ring at such a close distance, you don't need to be particularly accurate. You just need a little practice and throw it a few more times. Even if you just guess by chance, you should be able to hit it once.

But Lin Shen stood here for a while, and those people had thrown out at least hundreds of circles, but no one could hit the mark, and they were just a little off each time.

Qi Tianfu alone threw at least twenty circles in this short period of time. Several times the circles fell on the mutant eggs and bounced out again, which made Qi Tianfu so angry that he threw all the circles in his hands to the ground.

In the past, when Lin Yin took Lin Shen to the market, Lin Shen spent a lot of money at the ring-tossing stalls, but he rarely won.

Later, he asked his second brother to buy him a hoop and practiced constantly at home. After a few days, he was able to get almost 80% of the answers right.

When I went to the market to play ring toss again, the stall owner was almost crying.

After he succeeded in trapping the player, Lin Shen felt that it was no longer interesting and he rarely played the game since then.

Lin Shen is also considered a senior veteran. After watching for a while, he felt that there must be a problem. Under normal circumstances, someone should have hit the target long ago. It is impossible that he would fail all the time.

"Wei Wufu is a really interesting person. He could have just robbed the money, but he insisted on doing this." Lin Shen thought to himself.

"Fuck you, are you cheating?" Qi Tianfu took another twenty rings, but still failed every time. He had clearly hit the target several times, but it was still bounced out. He finally couldn't help but explode, pointing at Wei Wufu's nose and cursing.

"My skills are so bad, my luck is so bad, and now I even have no character." Lin Shen certainly would not miss the opportunity to laugh at Qi Tianfu.

Qi Tianfu turned around and saw that it was Lin Shen. He was about to curse, but he seemed to have thought of something and swallowed the curse words back. He stared at him and sneered, "You, Little Fifth Master, have great skills and good luck. If you can, show me how to trap one. If you can, Master Fu will call you Master every day from now on."
