Chapter 42: The Roar of Death
Gun shop.
Sean looked at Luke, who hadn't been here for a long time, and greeted him happily.
Recently, under the influence of Luke, Renard frequently came to the gun shop to practice shooting, and his relationship with Sean has become better and better.
He enthusiastically brought Luke into the store and asked, "Why did you remember to come to me today to practice guns, Renard has just left for a while, you can still meet him sooner." β
Luke came into the store and replied: "I'm not here to practice guns today, the Winchester M1897 sold in the store before was used by me, so I'll buy a new one." β
Sean was stunned for a moment, remembered what he said when he bought the gun, and asked with a smile: "You won't really use that gun as a stick, will you?" β
Luke didn't expect that he still remembered what happened more than a month ago, and was a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said truthfully: "Although... But... In a word... Pretty much. β
Sean shook his head, didn't ask again, walked with him to the gun store, turned around and asked, "What gun do you want this time?" Or 1987? βγ
Soon after the time passed, the furnishings of the gun depot did not change much, and Luke followed the familiar way and replied, "It's still it, it's easy to use." β
As he spoke, a strange wave of energy was suddenly sensed by the psionic energy, attracting Luke's attention.
He looked in the direction of the waves, and there was a small side door next to the door of the gun store.
Luke called out to Sean, walked over to the side door, and asked, "What kind of room is this?" β
Sean replied casually: "There are some old guns there, and I have a hobby of collecting old guns, so the gun store has a trade-in discount event, and the regular customers who come often know about it." They were all given to me by my regular customers when they came to buy guns, and they were full of traces of time, and each one had its own story. β
Luke was attracted by the energy fluctuations inside, pointed inside, and said, "Can I go in and have a look?" β
Sean has been collecting old guns for a long time, but few people are as interested in this as he is, and seeing Luke ask, he is as proud as an otaku who wants to show his friends a glass wall figure.
He excitedly opened the small door, turned on the overhead lamp and stood aside, and stretched out a hand to show Luke: "Welcome to my old gun expo." β
As soon as he spoke, he introduced Luke:
"The Springfield rifle, this gun comes from a veteran who spent countless perilous years on the battlefields of Europa, earning that veteran the rank of warrant officer of the fourth class. Unfortunately, he was discharged from the army due to injury, and when he returned, the Department of Veterans Affairs only reimbursed him for one year of disability severance pay. After he ran out of money, I introduced him to a job in property maintenance, and he gave me the gun. β
"The Marguti rifle, which is a young hunter's rifle, is a good hunter, and has killed more than a hundred prey with this gun. On his last hunt, he killed 6 winter wolves with this gun, but unfortunately there were more than a dozen wolves besieging him at that time. After his death, the search and rescue team found the gun, but when his father saw it, he remembered his dead son and wanted to discard it. I was intrigued by these firearms, which were full of stories, so I bought them. β
"Winchester M1873, this gun is an antique. You young people may not know it, but when I was a child, it was called the gun that won the West, and it was the standard weapon for cowboys, and our ancestors used it to drive and hunt Native Americans, and this gun was probably the most hunted Indian. β
The energy fluctuations that Luke sensed came from this gun.
He was very interested and asked, "What about this gun, does it have any story?" β
Sean's expression was embarrassed, "That's not true, this gun is too old, that is, I will maintain it from time to time, otherwise it would have been completely scrapped." β
Luke carefully observed the gun, focused on it, and identified the ability to activate.
γDeath Roarγ
This lever shotgun was the companion gun of the legendary cowboy Yasmani Little, who used it to kill countless Indians during the Western Frontier Movement, and after Yasmani Little was besieged by bandits, the gun was exiled to the Indian tribes, and the slaughtered feared Indians worshipped it as a weapon to the gods.
γSkillsγ
[Thunder Breath]: Bullets fired with this gun will be inflicted with lightning and fire damage, and the specific strength is determined by the amount of psionic energy infused. Inject up to 10 psionic energy at a time.
[Pioneering Moment]: Consume psionic energy to summon the phantom of the westward cowboy to perform three rounds of thunder and fire attribute bursts. For every 10 psionic points invested, one Phantom can be summoned.
This shot...
All right!
Isn't that tailor-made for me?
The more Luke looked at it, the more he liked it, and he couldn't help but touch it.
As soon as his hand landed on the gun, the blades of the [Indian War Stick Technique] in the golden finger space shook slightly, as if echoing the [Death Roar] of the same origin, and Luke also faintly felt the cheering emotions from the [Death Roar].
He said bluntly: "Uncle Sean, I liked this Winchester M1873 at a glance, can you sell me this gun?" β
Sean was stunned and said, "No." β
Before Luke could continue to plead, Sean laughed, looked like he had succeeded in his prank, and continued, "But I can give it to you." β
Luke waved his hand again and again, "It's already too much to take away your love, and if you don't give money, then I won't be able to care less." β
Sean listened to his words, his playful expression narrowed by three points, but it was still a little out of shape, put his arm around Luke's shoulders and said: "First, this gun is just a very ordinary one in my collection, since you like it so much, then it can get real value from you." β
Halfway through speaking, he walked up to Luke, picked up the gun, and handed it to him, "Second, you and Renard already have a good relationship, and this kid seems to have admired you more and more recently." I don't know what you're usually doing, but I hope you can take good care of her for me, my sister is his son. β
After hearing this, Luke no longer insisted, took the Winchester M1873 in Sean's hand, and said seriously: "I will treat it well." β
Sean waved his hand and walked out the door, "Just remember to apply gun oil on time for maintenance, this kind of old antique, although it can barely be used, but after all, it is not as fierce as the new guy." Let's go, I'll take you to pick up a new gun, it's not free this time. β
Luke smiled and hurriedly followed, although he had decided to use [Death Roar] as the main battle gun, but after all, he was here to buy a gun, and it would be a bit too bad to leave with a gun for nothing.
He went to the gun store with Sean again, picked out the Winchester M1897 with the best hand feeling, paid the bill normally, and thanked Uncle Sean again for the gift, and left the gun shop with two guns.
