Chapter 4: Preparation
"Lloyd, what should I do if I move?"
Ellie asked what everyone wanted to know.
"Let's go and ask the port first, do you want a boat record?"
Theo calmly suggested, but Lloyd shook his head and dismissed the idea.
"His words won't be in the way they leave a mark."
Randy nodded in agreement and added, "His words...... I'm afraid I'll swim through. ”
“!”
Theo was obviously frightened and wanted to refute it, but after making up the scene in his head, he suddenly felt that if it was You, he would probably do it......
"So, hurry over now?"
Noelle asked anxiously, on the one hand, he was worried that the tourists in Mishuram would be injured by mistake, and on the other hand, he was also worried that the tour would really do irreparable things.
The relationship between the two people has finally gone from being sworn enemies who can't talk to each other to gradually understanding each other. If he suddenly disappeared, Noelle really felt empty in his heart.
"No, there's no need to rush."
Now Lloyd is surprisingly calm.
If it were Guy Bannings, I am afraid that he would not be able to sit still at this time, and rushed to Mishuram.
But Lloyd Bannings sat here calmly.
"The goal of the tour is undoubtedly the Black Auction. In other words, he won't do it until the Black Auction begins. When he left, he said that the potency of medicine made us sleep all day. Probably to stagger our time. ”
Lloyd confirmed the time, Ling's rescue was very timely, and it was only past noon. Assuming that the Black Auction starts at dusk, there is plenty of time to prepare.
"Now, then, let's disband, and get ready for anything. After that, we will most likely have to directly confront Yu Tatsumi, and then we may also have to fight Rubacher and be prepared for everything. At 15:30, meet at the port in the harbor area. ”
Lloyd gave instructions majestically, and everyone in the support department agreed in unison, and they went about their own business.
――――
Lloyd took out his anigma and looked at it, but finally gave up. When fighting, Lloyd had little room to use magic. There aren't many characters that support Corey can fight head-on. My own whirlwind, to be honest, doesn't have anything worth replacing.
So, go get some medicine. With that in mind, Lloyd set off to the grocery store.
――――
"Miss Noelle? Got time? ”
Ellie stopped Noelle, who was about to go out, and the heroic military lady immediately stood still, turned around and smiled, "What's wrong?" I'm free. ”
"That's great, I'd like to talk to you about weapons."
Ellie raised her pistol to Noelle, the old model of the guided pistol that Ellie had been using, and to be honest, the power was a little out of date. If it's an attack on the eyes, there is still a certain degree of threat.
Do you want to ask someone like me who is familiar with firearms to give her advice?
Although Noelle uses a single-handed light machine gun, she also knows something about pistols.
It just so happened that Noelle was also going to adjust his weapon. The power of the guided machine gun is really not enough, and Noelle wants to increase its power, although it will increase the consumption of conductive energy, resulting in a decrease in the amount of ammunition, but the power will be increased to a certain extent.
Thinking that the two of them happened to be on the way, they agreed.
Ellie let out a long sigh of relief and quickly followed Noelle's footsteps.
In recent times, Ellie has become more and more aware of her dispensability in the support section's battles.
If there is a swim, there is almost no need for support shooting, and the power of his pistol is really not enough, at that time, considering that the opponents of the police are mainly humans, Ellie feels that the old model she has been using can also handle it. Now it's finally time not to update.
I don't want to be a burden to the Support Division. Don't want to be a burden to Lloyd.
With this in mind, Ellie quickly followed Noelle and walked towards the Arms Chamber of Commerce.
――――
In his room, Randy is taking care of the parts scattered all over the floor.
This is a weapon from the time of the Randy Chasseurs.
A rifle called Berserker. In terms of firepower alone, it is only stronger than the heavy machine guns of the Karuman consortium.
However, if it is not for the maintenance of weapons at all times, and the confirmation of the feel at all times, the power will decrease. Not only the precision of the weapon, but also the precision of the user.
When Randy first arrives at Crossbell, he gives it to the owner of the bar in order to say goodbye to the past. Of course, the owner of the hotel does not know how to maintain. What's more, he'd always thought it was something Randy had given him for safekeeping, and he hadn't opened it once.
As a result, the gun was dusted up for about two years.
Now the power is only about eighty percent of what it was then, and if you want to return to the top, you have to do a thorough maintenance.
The time is a bit urgent, so I can only maintain the key parts.
Randy tweaked the parts with his hands and feet.
As time flickered by an hour, Randy's hands and face were covered in pitch-black engine oil, and he loaded the last parts on the Berserker and picked up the Berserker's grip again.
The familiarity that fits the bones is back, as if countless tiny blood vessels extend from the body of the gun, connecting to the body through Randy's palm, and the gun seems to be a part of him.
Although he is not at the peak, Randy now thinks that he will not lose to any hunter. Whether it's the captain of Zephyr's troops, or the hunter who is given the name of immortality.
――――
Ellie, who had bought a new pistol at the weapons shop, came to the Channeling Shop.
Noelle positions himself as a striker and mid-range fire support, and rarely uses Enigma's fighting style. After all, it's too difficult to keep an eye on the enemy's movements while calculating when to use magic.
For Noelle, the main purpose of Ainigema is to insert amplification circuits into it, such as [Attack] and the like, to improve his physical fitness. Magic? Well, Noelle still prefers weapons.
Noelle stayed in the shop to continue adjusting her spare armament, while Ellie arrived at the Channeling Shop, ready to update her circuit.
If Noelle is a near-to-medium range, then Ellie is a medium-to-long combatant.
Ellie, who has replaced the new guide pistol, has a strong firepower that makes up for it. Then, the other side should be strengthened.
Guiding magic.
Because they are long-range combatants, they are often far away from the enemy, and there are Lloyd who are in front of them to hinder the enemy's passage, so Ellie can drive magic with peace of mind.
Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've been to the store to update the loop.
With this in mind, Ellie pushed open the door of the guide store, and immediately, her eyes were drawn to a pair of cute little children inside.
Theo shook her aqua blue hair, turned her head to be more sure of something, and kept gesturing in her hands. Lotus's pale blonde hair was also flicking, as if he was discussing something with Theo.
Theo is a member of the Magic Wand development team, and Lotus is a member of the Tactical Steering Device development team, both of whom are elites of the Epstein Foundation, and the topics they discuss must be something that ordinary people can't understand, right?
But Ellie greeted them anyway.
Sure enough, what the two were discussing was Enigma's circuit matching.
Theo thinks he should take advantage of a chain and combine powerful superior magic. And Lotus suggests that she put together a lot of magic that can protect her.
Hey, it's really a mind that people can see through at once.
Ellie smiled and looked at Hexu, and realized more and more that this little girl was cute.
I really want to have a child like that.
No, it's not! Cai, I never thought it was Lloyd's child, and I didn't think about brown hair!
With a sudden flush on her face, Ellie quickly disrupted her cranky thoughts and brought the topic back to the choice of circuit.
(For Ellie and Theo's tactical detractor configuration updates, please refer to "Support Section Detractor Update" in the character card.) )
