Chapter 55: Equivalent Exchange
Three days later, in the early morning, Watson sat alone on the sofa with a cup of milk tea and slowly snorted, with the water cut and ambition that had just been maintained in front of him, as well as three boxes of rune bullets of different colors and functions that had been made in the past three days. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
During the time since returning from Miller's Tavern, Watson has not gone back to the Demon Hunter Guild to take on quests, but has focused on crafting rune bullets at home.
Because of the continuous days of tasks and fighting, although he did not suffer multiple injuries, he inevitably felt a little tired mentally.
According to Daddy, it is best for demon hunters to take a break after a period of mission, and precipitate the experience and abilities they have gained before, so that they can truly integrate into their combat system, such as the new strength and speed brought by the enhanced constitution of the mountain trolls, which need to be re-familiarized with by Watson.
The experience of the older generation is not wrong, and Watson, who has rested for a few days, can clearly feel that his whole body is suddenly refreshed, and his condition is much better than the previous days.
Today, he plans to go out and find something to do, first of all, he has to dispose of the 90 rune bullets he has made in the past three days, including 30 burst bullets, 30 freeze bullets and 30 dark energy bullets.
He will leave 10 of each type for himself, and the rest of Watson will be sold, as for the buyer, since Morrigan came to him last time and said that he would give a reasonable price, it is not a bad idea to go to the garrison now.
The eastern part of Wildas wasn't very peaceful, at least as the Miller Tavern incident showed, so the combatants on the garrison duty in the field certainly wouldn't wear the defenseless uniforms of the police to fight the criminals.
Watson's goal this time is not to get the combat suit of ordinary police officers, but to get their captain-level set, the leather armor he wore last time has long been destroyed, and now getting a new set of leather armor must of course be put on the agenda.
Putting the three boxes of rune bullets on the table into the pocket of his trench coat, Watson went out to take a taxi to the garrison in Dongcheng District, looking at the backward buildings on the side of the street, and suddenly thought that he should also find a means of transportation, always taking a taxi seems to be quite troublesome, and demon hunters often need to hurry to do tasks, although there are many places to rent horses...... But it's always more reassuring to have a horse of your own, isn't it?
It's not that Watson hasn't considered buying a car, it's just that this kind of transportation is okay to use in the city, but not all places have built roads, such as the Myral Wasteland, where you dare to drive those ordinary cars, it is estimated that you have to break down in less than half an hour, and you always have to take a driver's license to buy a car, not that you can drive it if you buy it, plus Watson's current residence does have a stable built next to it, so you don't have to bother looking for a place to tie the horse, so it is more practical to buy a horse.
Thinking of this, Watson went to the garrison this time with one more goal, that is, to find a way to get a well-trained horse for the police as his future means of transportation.
As the actual security department of the entire Dongcheng District on the surface, the three-story villa-type house design of the garrison and the large granite structure of the building give the first impression of calm and majesty.
A flag made of the coat of arms of the Barov family flutters on the roof of the building along with the representative flag of the Supreme Government, symbolizing that this is the area governed by the Barov family under the name of the Supreme Government, and all external forces who want to do anything must be approved by them!
Because it was a public facility, the gate of the garrison was quite spacious, and Watson simply walked to the door because he didn't know the way because it was the first time he came, so he simply walked to the door and asked the security guard about the location of Morrigan's office.
"Your Excellency, please show your proof of residence and surrender your weapons, which are the rules that must be followed by professionals of other forces when entering the garrison. ”
The officer turned his head to look at the two long knives under Watson's trench coat and looked up and said solemnly.
It is normal for a place like a garrison that is related to the dignity of the government to have such rules, after all, if this kind of place that represents the majesty of Barov could be allowed to outsiders to enter with weapons at will, then some underground organizations would have already made a few suicide bombs and rushed in, whether they could blow people up or not, it would be a blow to the credibility of the Barov family.
"Well, the problem is that there is something very important in these weapons...... I've come to Morrigan because I'd be bothered if I lost it, oh, you see she's coming, and I think you might go and ask her if she can let me bring it in. ”
Watson thought that if he handed over his weapon, wouldn't he have to hand it over along with the rune bullets?
Although the credibility of the garrison is still worth trusting, but this kind of thing that can be worth half a month's salary of an ordinary police officer, who can guarantee it, when he was struggling, he happened to see Mo Regan coming from the side, and immediately stretched out his hand to her, and then said to the guard.
The guard ran for instructions, quickly walked back, sideways and let Watson in, while Morrigan was already waiting for him in the hall behind the gate.
"You're very well guarded, you don't bring weapons in, and I'm wondering what I'll do if a few of those bullets get stolen. ”
"What do you think we are doing here? Thieves' Guild? Our garrison is quite religious, and I have to warn you first, although you are allowed to come in with weapons, but don't make trouble, otherwise it will be difficult for me to do it, I will take you to my office first. ”
Morrigan looked uneasy and looked at Watson for a few moments, then led him to his office on the second floor.
The captain-level office is not only the captain but also includes his direct subordinates, and after Morrigan pushed open the office door, the uniform greeting immediately sounded, and Morrigan also turned around and showed off a little.
"You actually have so many direct subordinates, I counted about 20 people, are they paid by you?"
"18 to be exact, of course, the salary is paid by the garrison, and I only occasionally give them some benefits, like after storming a suspect's stronghold, confiscating some of his family's illegal money, and then giving some subsidies to these hard-working colleagues. Rum: Bring me two cups of milk tea. ”
"It's okay, I'm here because you told me last time I could come to you if I want to sell rune bullets, I don't think you forgot what you said. You should know how much 20 burst bombs, 20 freeze bombs and 20 dark energy bombs are worth. ”
Watson took a few sips of milk tea in his left hand, and with his right hand, he took out three boxes of rune bullets from his trench coat pocket and put them on Morrigan's desk.
"What do you want? I don't think it's gold or anything like that...... Otherwise, you won't come to the door. ”
"I don't have many conditions, two sets of standard leather armor of your level, let me pick a police horse, how about it, it's not too much, right?"
"No, this is excessive, do you know how expensive a set of captain-level standard leather armor is? You open your mouth to two sets, are we a shopping mall that sells clothes? There are also police war horses are all carefully selected, and in some respects the cost is not even lower than those police cars!"
"Then you give me an accurate word, do you want to change it? If you don't want me, I'll go to the Taobao market to sell these bullets, the bursting bullet only needs one shot to blow up a rock with a radius of about 50CM, the freezing bullet can completely freeze the blood of a cow in half a minute, the trajectory of the dark energy bullet is very hidden at night, and it is difficult to heal as long as the dark energy is not eliminated after hitting the target...... I don't care if someone else uses it against you when the time comes, please remember that if it's an ordinary professional, you only need one shot. ”
Taking out the bullets from each of the three boxes and explaining their effects individually, Watson pretended not to see the darkening expression on Morrigan's face.
"A set of captain-level leather armor and a war horse, it can't be more. ”
"The supporting equipment of the horses should be ready, don't bring me a war horse that hasn't even nailed the horseshoe, and the leather armor should be suitable, don't fool me with defective products, rune bullets are not difficult to sell in the Taobao market, and you don't forget that Verdas also has a black market, and you should know what the attitude of the people inside is towards your garrison." ”
Unlike the Taobao market, the black market is an underground market with a dark side, where you can buy many things that are prohibited by the government, and a considerable number of the people who patronize them have criminal records in the garrisons in various regions.
If these rune bullets flow into the black market, then the chances of being used against the guards in the future will be very high, which is why Watson seems to be quite confident, but although he is telling the truth, he does not tell Morrigan that he has just arrived in Wildas and has no idea where the black market is......
"You demon hunters are like that, thinking about taking advantage of everything you want to take advantage of?"
"This is a fair equivalent exchange, I didn't force you, if you don't change it, I'll sell it on the black market, anyway, these rune bullets always have to find a place to shoot. ”
"I'm unlucky...... Captain-level equipment application needs to go through a procedure, I will send someone to deliver things to your house in the afternoon, and I am still eligible to apply for a horse if it is a war horse, anyway, I don't ride much myself, so I will help you apply, come with me. ”
Perhaps because he didn't want to talk to Watson, Morrigan drank the milk tea in his hand quite simply, picked up the captain's identity certificate on the table, stood up and was about to walk out.
"By the way, I have something I want to ask you, what happened to the kidnapping at Miller's Tavern the night before yesterday? I've listened to a lot of information about this on the radio at home in the past two days, and I will say that I will pay the ransom and say that I will completely crack down on this group of criminals. ”
"It's just the daily terror of the anti-government organizations, these people want to make big news all day long to increase their popularity, kidnap this, kidnap that, so want to overthrow the government and just attack the Barov family castle in Midtown. A group of rats who only dare to do petty theft. ”
"So has the matter been settled? have you redeemed it or have you been torn up?"
"Political secrets, you have no right to know. ”
“...... So what did you say so much before?"
"It's nothing, I just want to get revenge on you. ”
