Pretending not to hear Lixia's words, You Qiang pretended to be indifferent, whistling to hide his weakness.

Don't want to go...... I really don't want to go...... At that time, my brain was hot, so I agreed to repay the favor...... But it's not okay if you don't go, this is a matter of men's dignity! Leave it to Illya to decide, and there will definitely be a big mess! Yu returned to the living room and found that everyone in the support department was ready to go.

"What's wrong? Are you going out together? ”

Hearing You's question, Lloyd shook his head and explained to him: "No, it's because it's rare that there is no mission today, and I'm wondering if everyone can patrol the city together, and by the way, reorganize and arm." ”

You nodded in agreement. There is no reason to disagree, and acting together can be an effective way to strengthen bonds between partners. And You also felt that the combat effectiveness of the support department was indeed not enough.

In terms of weapons, it seems to have Ellie's long-range sniping and machine gun strafing, and Theo's medium-range magic wand, but in fact, the firepower is not enough. And as a melee officer, Randy is very good, which is not to be said. Lloyd was a little lacking, and the combat skills he learned in the police academy only made him a better police officer than ordinary people, and as a combatant, Lloyd was still far behind. As for You himself, he prefers an assassin-like blow to break away from the combat method, and if he chooses, he will never go head-to-head with the other party.

Moreover, due to the replacement of the new tactical guide [Anigema], the combat effectiveness of the support department in the field of magic attack is seriously insufficient. You was still using the old version of the tactical power guide, and the magic was relatively comprehensive, but at first he didn't use magic very often, and later he changed to the [Enigma II Beta Version] provided by Hexu......

"Rearmament, huh...... So, let's start with the tactical detractor. ”

Lobbying, he set his eyes on Hexu.

This is done because the weapon will not be boosted too much - after all, how powerful a weapon can be used depends on the strength of the user, and Mafia is a good example. If he had handed over the heavy machine gun to Yuu Tatsumi, I am afraid that he would have annihilated the enemy at high speed. Although ordinary heavy machine guns can't do this, the heavy machine guns of the Karuman Consortium have maintained their power while greatly reducing the recoil, and if they are used by skilled people, there is no problem with one as ten.

The same is true for firearms, not to mention the main force of the Support Division: Randy and Yuki Tatsumi are both types that prefer close combat, and the requirements for weapons are even lower. Rather than good weapons, these close combatants want to master new martial arts.

Second, it's because this is Hexu's area of expertise. A common problem for researchers is that they are easy to get caught up in their own work, and if Hexu is also a standard researcher, then she should quickly fall into a state of introducing and recommending guides and circuits to several people, and forget about her fears for a while.

You has already decided to stay in the support department, so naturally he will not sit idly by and watch his teammates unable to extricate themselves in panic.

"Uh-huh~"

He Xu swallowed the sandwich in his mouth in two bites, lifted his chest proudly, and raised his head too much, with an expression of "come and ask me". Ellie smiled, followed her meaning, and asked, "Hexu, do you have any good suggestions?" ”

"Hey, hey, hey! Of course, of course, Hexu is prepared. ”

He Xu said, trotting to the guide terminal, but her body did not forget the fear, and her hands were still trembling slightly.

Next to the guide terminal, which is used to communicate with the headquarters and report tasks, is the machine brought by Hexu. The adjustment table of the tactical power guide is a professional adjustment equipment used within the Epstein Foundation. Strictly speaking, this is not an adjustment table or a repair station, but a "development table" used by professionals.

"This machine is the one that adjusts the tactical force guide, right?"

Lloyd had seen the machines in the Guiding Power Store somehow much, and the two machines were very similar in appearance.

"Eun, so, if you have any special circuits you want, you can come to Hexu. The circuits that Lotus can make are much more advanced than those in the store. ”

For Hexu's full of confidence, everyone in the support department smiled knowingly.

Sure enough, a little girl like Hexu is the most suitable for a cheerful and confident expression.

Moreover, Hexu's self-confidence is also easy to understand, she is a researcher herself, and besides, such a thing as a circuit must be researched by the consortium first, and then tested, and only after the test will it be allowed to be sold in stores. It was not surprising that Hexu was able to get the advanced circuit one step ahead of the store.

In the next half hour, everyone in the support department worked together to gather a bunch of crystal flares, and watched as He Xu explained and made a circuit for everyone, leaving it aside for the time being. [Note: I will explain to you the current situation of the guide of the support department in the "Work Related" or "Character Card", and I will not cheat the number of words.] Later, it was mentioned that this will be done when the force guide is replaced, so I will not repeat it]

Only Yuki Tatsumi stood aside as if he was ostracized. After all, he was the only one who used a different force guide than the others.

"Na, Senior You has that, right...... How does it feel? He Xu lowered her head to operate the machine, and her pale blonde hair hung down her cheeks, obscuring her expression. Just mentioning the events of that night, she couldn't help but want to hide.

You smiled bitterly and shrugged, and quickly changed the topic to Hexu's professional direction.

"The [Tactical Leader] feature is really good. It only takes me to control everyone's power guide to use magic, and including the locking of coordinates, the strength of magic, etc., can be adjusted, which is a very good function. It's just that there is no mosaic circuit, and it feels weird......"

The beta version of Enigma II sounds like the same model as Enigma, and the circuit used should be the same, but it is not. In terms of the simplest crystalline junction loop holes, Enigma is a square hole, and the loops used are also square. The Aenigma II beta uses round holes...... No matter how you look at it, both of them are not universal circuits.

"Well, because it's aiming for arcus after all, it's a little different from Enigma......" Hexu was also a little embarrassed. Saying that it is "aiming for Arcus" is actually simply thinking that the function of Arcus is better than that of Anigema, and the guys who develop Anigema in the headquarters of these consortiums can't hold their faces.

Unlike Anigema, the Aigma II beta version, although it bears the name of Enigma, is essentially an imitation of an ARCUS. Because the [Tactical Connection] function could not be copied, it replaced a dispensable [Tactical Leader] function, and in order to study the [Core Circuit], he even did not hesitate to abandon the characteristics of Anigema, and even replaced other circuits with the ARCUS version of the ......

The best feature of Arcus is that one circuit corresponds to one or several spells. Originally, there were only 3 circuits that could be equipped, which made the user's own magic strike surface even thinner.

Luckily, Tatsumi himself can use magic-like spells, which can make up for this weakness to a certain extent, otherwise, this Anigma II beta version is too weak.

"So, what kind of magic does Senior You hope to have?" He Xu didn't feel any more depressed, she quickly changed her mood and began to ask Yu's opinion.

After all, this is also a special machine, and the required circuit also needs to be developed separately.

"The magic I want...... Linear bursts of energy, a wide range of targeted attack magic, and, in addition, fast-driving single magic, right? ”

You hesitated for a moment and said what he wanted.

This is the conclusion that you have come to after careful consideration.

He's not the type to be good at using channeling magic, and instead of channeling magic that requires a drive, Yu・Tatsumi is used to using magic that doesn't require a drive to strengthen his teammates in terms of support. If it is an attack, then he prefers to fight close to the enemy by getting close to the enemy at high speed. What's more, he positions himself as a support character, and there are fewer occasions when he is usually needed to attack.

So, rather than being powerful or something, Yu wants his magic to come in handy in non-combat situations.

He Xu nodded, remembering the request in his heart.

Through this thought, Yu also suddenly realized that he should find someone who is good at using guiding magic for the support department to be an "instructor" for the support department.

Through the mafia incident, Yu Tatsumi clearly realized that the current support department was not enough to take charge on its own, and it was necessary to have a big special training. However, the martial arts and basic training tours are still a little careful, but the guiding magic is ......

You himself is not highly accomplished in guiding magic, and although Theo and Hexu are both proficient in channeling skills, their combat experience is too shallow to be qualified as instructors.

Sure enough, we should ask if there are any guerrillas on Liber's side who are willing to come on a business trip?

――――――――――――――――

Just as the members of the Support Section were renewing the circuit in Anigema and were immersed in the excitement, there was a knock on the door, and Lloyd hurriedly ran over.

With the creak of an old door, an unfamiliar face appeared in front of Lloyd in the sun.

"Hello, there is a package from Miss Theo Prato, can you please sign it?"

As he spoke, he picked up a half-man-high box from the wall, lying flat with a slip on it.

Although he wondered who would send her the package, Tio squeezed out of Lloyd's side and signed the slip on tiptoe. The courier completed his mission, said goodbye and left. Theo couldn't wait to tear open the wrapper......

"New ...... Magic wand? ”

Theo tilted his head and lifted the contents up.

The whole body is silvery-white, the tip is deliberately made into a hemispherical shape, and next to it can also hold a white box that seems to be used to boost power, which can be put together in an indescribable way. It was as if a few blocks were inexplicably protruding from a ball......

"Ah...... It's ugly......"

Hoseo frowned as he looked at Theo's new weapon.

Children always speak more directly, for example, in the East, there used to be a story called "The King's New Clothes", which praised the child's innocent heart. Since even Hexu, a researcher at the Epstein Foundation, said that it was "ugly", the appearance of this strangely shaped magic wand can be seen.

Tio didn't bother more about the appearance of the new weapon, took out the attached manual and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but nod.

Lloyd Randy Ellie bent down curiously, looked in, smiled meaninglessly, and did not follow the trend.

After less than three seconds of staring, Lloyd Randy Allie straightened up helplessly - it was full of all kinds of professional words and academic forms, which made laymen confused, and even had the idea of "what is this".

Both Hexu and Tio are professionals, and these things are still a little difficult for them to read, and some terms and calculation formulas have to be understood by them for three or two seconds, not to mention Lloyd and others, who are not good at guiding force techniques.

No wonder I'm not curious, it turns out that I know I can't read it...... Lloyd glanced at Yu Tatsumi, who was smiling next to him, and scratched his head helplessly. I always feel that you like to joke with your own people for a while......

"Regardless of the ......appearance," even Theo glanced at the strange shape of the wand with disgust, and stopped looking. But the power has increased, and the power of the burst mode has been strengthened by the use of a linked energy supply method......" Tio explained to the curious trio in the simplest way possible.

The bright yellow eyes stared closely at the magic wand in Xiaoxiao's hand: "This, it's very powerful." "Looks like Theo has decided to switch to this wand. As for the previous one, it will be returned to the consortium along with Theo's report and will continue to be used for research.

But...... weapons, yes? Lloyd looked thoughtfully at Theo's wand. He also wanted to see if there were any new weapons, and only in the field of weapons did humans develop them at an unexpectedly fast pace. Lloyd's previous pair of whirlpools with electric shock functions was lost in the previous conflict with the mafia. Although it was later recovered, the precision force guide inside was completely broken.

Anyway, it's okay today, so let's go to the weapon shop and change the weapon by the way.
