Chapter 19 Entry: Hunter, Named Falcon!

"Add!"

No hesitation.

Su Yu directly issued the command with his mind.

Instantly, Su Yu felt a sudden shock in his heart.

Immediately after, an indescribable sense of fatigue swept over him.

It wasn't physical fatigue, but mental exhaustion, compounded by his almost non-stop work over the past two days.

He almost passed out directly.

Fortunately, after taking the job of a [Gunsmith], although his career level is only at level 1, the physical enhancement it brought Su Yu, as a combat-oriented profession, is extraordinary compared to being a Mechanic.

Allowing Su Yu to barely withstand this wave of fatigue, he forced himself to keep his eyes on the system's prompt panel, fighting off the drowsiness.

[Congratulations, you have successfully unlocked and added an entry to the Ordinary Sniper Rifle (Advanced): Hunter I]

[Hunter I (Active): Lock onto a hostile target within shooting range, consuming a certain amount of energy (medium) to activate this skill entry, increasing the next shot's damage by fifty percent with the blessing of Subspace!]

[Cooldown time: One hour]

[Note: Once the number of targets killed with this skill reaches 100, this entry can advance]

[Since you have added an entry to the current equipment, you can rename the equipment. Do you wish to rename it?]

Line by line of system prompts appeared, the joy temporarily suppressing Su Yu's fatigue.

Looking at the effects of the entry he had just unlocked, Su Yu felt only two words in his heart—surprise!

A hundred percent increase in sniping accuracy!

Such an effect, especially for someone like Su Yu, who has just begun to learn sniping, is an enormous boon.

Though this skill entry's cost is significant, and the cooldown time is long.

But its effect of one hundred percent increased accuracy is extremely strong!

Not to mention.

"Once the number of targets killed reaches 100, the entry can advance, and by then, the effect might be even stronger!"

Looking at the newly transformed sniper rifle in his hands and the system's prompt for renaming, Su Yu pondered for a moment and then had an idea.

"The entry is Hunter... patrol and hunt, so from now on, this gun will be named... [Falcon]!"

A Falcon assisting the Hunter, preying on enemies!

As Su Yu finished speaking.

In his system panel, within the equipment section, the original name of the Ordinary Sniper Rifle flashed, and the renaming was completed.

Su Yu felt a mysterious connection forming between himself and the Falcon Sniper Rifle in his hand, just as the system described.

After pouring his heart and soul into it, this gun seemed to gain its own soul and connect genuinely with its creator!

"What an interesting change."

Su Yu exhaled a breath of turbid air, calmed his restless thoughts, put away the Falcon, and quickly fell into sleep.

"Starting tomorrow, it's time for the hunting team's training!"

"Thinking about it, I'm really looking forward to it!"

...

"As a sniper in the ruins, to quickly improve your shooting skills, the most important thing is to sharpen your eyesight, specifically, your dynamic vision!"

"In the ruins, whether it's humans or beasts, your targets will never stand still. They will move, and some will even dodge. Under such circumstances, without good dynamic vision, no matter how good your gun is or how fast your bullet is, you won't be able to inflict any damage!"

"Surviving in the wilderness, the most critical skill is to learn to track Radiation Beasts!"

"It's not just the obvious footprints, but also the crucial scents! You even need to analyze the traces left on bark and wild grass to determine the number, species, and other crucial information about the Radiation Beasts that passed by nearby..."

"Moreover, as a Scout, it is equally important to know the value of the Radiation Beasts appearing in front of your team. When hunting, understand what benefits can be gained, learn to make choices, and don't blindly rush at a group of Radiation Beasts..."

On the training ground.

Li Mao and Zhang Wu, a Scout and a Sniper.

Although they may not be top-notch, each of them has rich experience, enough to be considered seasoned individuals.

And the experience they share is quite valuable for Su Yu.

In the past few days, under the guidance of Li Mao and Zhang Wu, although he hasn't experienced actual combat.

Su Yu's Professional Experience has still been enriched, and his level has steadily increased.

Now, his [Gunsmith] career level has smoothly risen to lv5.

And the level of the core ability of the [Gunsmith] profession, [Perception of Killing Intent], has also grown to lv5.

Perception of Killing Intent.

This ability is mainly for warning against enemies, and like the Mechanic's [Mechanical Affinity], it is a passive ability.

The difference is that the effect of [Perception of Killing Intent] is more direct.

At level 1, Perception of Killing Intent can only sense hostile targets within 300 meters.

But after reaching level 3, its sensing range expands to one kilometer.

For Su Yu, who also acts as a Scout, this trait is quite useful in the wilderness.

Whether it's used for early warning of lurking Radiation Beast packs near the team or sensing disguised enemies in the dark or wild, it proves quite practical.

Apart from this core ability,

Under the guidance of Li Mao and Zhang Wu, Su Yu has also learned many additional skills.

For example,

[Basic Sniper Skills], [Wilderness Survival], and the [Basic Scout Skill] that was officially unlocked only today.

Now both [Basic Sniper Skills] and [Wilderness Survival] have been improved to lv3 by Su Yu.

Along with Su Yu's inherent Gunsmith career ability, which is also raised to lv5.

Su Yu surmised that his firearms skills might even be a notch above his instructor Zhang Wu.

However, since it hasn't been tested in actual combat, Su Yu doesn't know if he truly possesses the skills or if it's just self-confidence.

As Su Yu pondered.

Zhang Wu called out.

"Su Yu, what are you daydreaming about? Come get trained!"

"Oh, coming!"

Su Yu responded, walked over, picked up the Falcon Sniper Rifle, and aimed at the distant target that Zhang Wu had set to move at a constant speed.

"After today's training, my career level should break through to lv6."

Glancing at his experience bar, which had grown to 90%.

Su Yu's eyes were filled with anticipation.

Compared to a Mechanic, the power growth from a Gunsmith's upgrades is significantly greater.

However, until evening, after Zhang Wu and Li Mao finished training.

Su Yu's experience bar had only reached 96%.

"As expected, just training and gaining experience from learning from Brother Zhang Wu is not enough to further boost my career level!"

Although Su Yu knew this day would come eventually, he was still a little disappointed.

Nevertheless, he quickly adjusted his mindset, seeing Zhang Wu and the others about to leave, Su Yu hurriedly called out to them.

"Brother Zhang Wu, Brother Li Mao, there's something I want to discuss with you both!"

...

Half an hour later, at the ninth team's base.

"What? Su Yu wants to join the hunting team now, prepare for one more day, and then head out to the wilderness to start hunting?"

After hearing the news brought back by Zhang Wu and Li Mao, Yang Lie couldn't help but stand up, almost doubting his ears. But seeing Zhang Wu and Li Mao nod seriously, he finally calmed down, although there was still unmistakable shock in his eyes!
