Animeverse Slayer!

Chapter 77 - 77. Guns

Lex led Leo to a shooting range. The place was brightly lit and maintained well.

Lex gave Leo a pistol and pointed to a target, "We will start with 10 meter and see where it goes. Alright, a couple of things you need know, when shooting keep your arms straight, don't put too much pressure on your joints. You need them to absorb the recoil, so keep it just right."

He went on to explain several more points to taken note of when firing and stepped aside.

Leo took aim, his pupils narrowed as they focused on the target several meters away.

Bang!

He pulled the trigger.

Lex came over and took a look. His eyes stared wide when he saw where the bullet hit.

Just a ring away from the center. Is it luck?

He muttered to himself and said, "Go ahead."

Leo nodded and fired again. This time he fired without stopping.

Bang! Bang!

Several more shots were fired. When he emptied the bullets Lex came over and checked the target.

He had a stunning expression on his face.

Bullseye!

Every single shot Leo just fired hit the dead center of the target.

He turned to Leo and asked, "You never used a gun before?"

Leo nodded, "Never."

Lex had an admiring look on his face as he said, "Then you are very gifted in firearms. You have excellent hand-eye coordination and recoil absorption."

Leo shook his head, "Maybe it's cause I am a martial artist. I have good control over my body."

Lex asked back, "That can't be true, can it?"

Leo replied, "Why not? Martial arts train our body and mind, so it's possible."

Lex nodded. That was possible. Shooting depended mainly on hand-eye coordination and recoil absorption, so a master martial artist might be able to get a hang of shooting in a very short time.

As Leo hit bullseye at 10 meters Lex increased the distance. This time it was 15 meters.

However this time Leo shot bullseye from the very start.

Lex was shocked and increased the distance again.

20 meters, bullseye.

30 meters, bullseye.

This went on until the target reached fifty meters. However this time Leo failed to hit bullseye. But it wasn't due to his inability hit at that range, it's because the guns accurate range was only 40 meters.

Lex looked as if he saw a ghost. Even with his years of experience he would only get complete bullseye at 35 meters. Any further and his accuracy would decrease.

"I have never seen someone as gifted as you before."

Lex praised wholeheartedly.

Leo smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise."

Suddenly Lex asked, "Hey, I have a collection of firearms, do you want to have a look?"

Leo was intrigued and nodded.

Lex led Leo to his study and opened a side door. It was the door to a small compartment and in it were all types of guns neatly arranged and gleaming with sharpness.

"This is a rifle, these are pistols and this is...

Lex gave a small introduction to every gun. Leo took out a few and felt it.

"What are you guys doing?"

Suddenly a Catherine's voice came from the study entrance. She walked over and saw the gun compartment.

"So you are showing him your collection."

Catherine had a teasing smile on her face, Lex looked away and smiled wryly.

"Leo, do you want to see my collection?"

Huh?

Leo was stunned. She has a weapons collection?

"Okay."

Lex had an unnatural expression on his face, however Leo failed to notice this.

When they were on ther way they met Arthur.

"Where are you guys going?"

"To see your mother's collection."

Leo replied.

Arthur immediately showed a weird expression and looked at his father. Lex looked away.

Continuing on their way, they met Dalia and she asked the same question and Leo answered with the same words.

She also looked at Lex rather weirdly.

"Here we are."

Leo's eyes widened like saucers when he saw what was inside.

Holy shit!

The room was very large and the walls were filled with guns ranging from rifles to snipers. Each one had a name pasted right below it.

Several large glass containers were placed orderly and inside them were different types of bullets, and a few of them even had customised bullets.

Hell there was even a mortar and canon.

"How is it?"

Catherine asked with a proud smile.

"It's... um... awesome."

Leo found it hard to say exactly how he he felt and said a popular term everyone shouts out when they see something that shocks them.

"Come, come, let me give an introduction to them. My collection is far better than his lousy small box of weapons."

It's a compartment, and it's a rather big one.

Lex said inside his mind.

Arthur and Dalia looked at Lex weirdly and said nothing.

Catherine was excited as she explained each one of them. She was completely different from before.

"Do you know how to disassemble a gun?"

Catherine suddenly asked.

Leo shook his head.

"It's very simple. Here it's like this."

She took out a pistol and slowly dissembled it. From her actions Leo knew she was very experienced and said to himself.

Yep, she is a lioness.

"Did you get it?"

She asked.

"I think so."

Leo picked up another gun and tried to disassemble it. However he was stuck halfway through.

Catherine patiently explained how it's done.

"Every gun is basically the same, they all have the same parts. Just that, certain parts are modified or improved to attain certain specific results."

Catherine was very enthusiastic when she spoke about guns. She patiently explained the basic structure of weapons to Leo.

Lex couldn't stand the weird gazed he was receiving from Arthur and Dalia and said, "Honey, it's dinner time. Now, let's not let our guests starve."

Catherine realised what time it was and said, "Oh, my, look at me. Let's go, I can give you pointers after the meal."

I didn't ask, though.

Leo said to himself.
