Then an idea formed in his mind.
He remembered that night when they had been chased by the zombies. How he had struggled with only a flashlight, the narrow beam barely showing anything, slowing him down. Fighting like that had been brutal, and the memory still left a bad taste in his mouth.
Without hesitation, he poured more coins into the scope.
(58 coins spent. Scope Lv.1 → Lv.3)
He raised the DMR and tested it. The glass became clearer, the zoom smoother, and lining up a target felt easier. Jaxon frowned. It was better, no doubt about it, but still not what he had been hoping for.
He paused, weighing his options. "This better work," he muttered under his breath. "Or I'm just wasting hard-earned coins."
(37 coins spent. Scope Lv.3 → Lv.4)
This time, something changed. A new ring appeared along the side of the scope. Jaxon switched off the room's light, raised the DMR, and nudged the ring with his thumb.
The darkness thinned.
