The Secret Code of Monsters

Chapter 44 Ch.44 Strange Object: Spider Kiss

"salon?"

Training Course.

Fernandez rubbed the silver multi-barreled gun in his hand and wiped it carefully with a very fine soft cloth.

The gun handle is wrapped with ivory on both sides and riveted with a dark copper-colored carved nail; the gun body is completely black, with some reflections after being rubbed by Fernandez; it is tempered with gray lines, and gold is painted on the barrel root. lines.

Five barrels.

The trigger was light-colored metal, carved with a woman's face.

"You can go, or you can not go." Fernandez lowered his head and opened the buckle of the leather box on the table - there were a dozen bright silver bullets stacked with the bullets pointed upward.

"Normally, this kind of thing is not our turn."

Rich people's ways.

In addition to socializing upward or at the same level, these people who have too much money and no place to spend it are also very willing to "cut corners" under certain circumstances:

Extend a hand of friendship to the police detectives or consultants of the Supervisory Bureau, and use money to buy some benefits - for example, someone you are familiar with, and you no longer need to go through cumbersome procedures to deal with things, and some shameful things become more convenient. stand up.

"The Supervisory Bureau handles many and complex things, so it is more popular."

Fernandez pinched a bullet and pushed it into the barrel of the gun: "Compared to the executive officers who are only responsible for 'major cases,' those vultures have a lot more money."

For example, the overall purification of the house, the protection of children, some disputes in life, etc.——

People of Mingsi Chloe's status would prefer police officers from Scotland Yard and detectives from the Inspectorate, and there are even some with great powers who can 'make friends' with ritualists at the consultant level.

"They call it investing, Roland."

As Fernandez spoke, he raised his arm to shoulder level and pulled the trigger neatly.

Bang!

The muzzle spurted out pale flames.

The neutron bomb was pushed forward by the explosion, but it did not leave bullet marks on the iron target first. Instead, it condensed into a spiderweb-like white curtain in mid-air, and the target was riddled with holes.

Fernandez glanced at Roland, who was full of surprise.

"Adjust the range through "secret", a bunch, or a piece. "

"This is…"

""Wonderful object". "

Fernandez handed over the gun.

"Finally we can see the real thing, right?"

"'Alien, Spirit, Ritualist: The Deep Spiral of Strange Objects.'" Fernandez patted him on the shoulder and stopped him from reaching for the bullet: "Just like I told you, through "influence" , we use ritual magic. "

"Again, through strong effects...or some reason we haven't figured out yet."

“That’s how ‘Wonderful Things’ was born. "

"As the name suggests, any power you can imagine or cannot imagine can be found in strange objects...if you can afford the price."

"Like this gun: Spider Kiss."

"Spider Kiss".

The barrel is cold and delicate.

The gold thread running throughout and the ivory handle make it look like a work of art.

After Fernandez said this, he took out a bullet and handed it to Roland, asking him to shoot it.

Cleanly loaded.

aim.

Bang——

In addition to the vibration and recoil, Roland felt as if his arm had been stung by something.

The severe pain was transmitted along the blood vessels to the heart, and even the eyeballs were a little swollen.

Spider kiss.

This all happens in an instant.

"Spider is the name and the price."

"Each time it is fired, the user will experience the pain of a spider bite."

"At the same time, five barrels, five bullets, five tolerable pains. However, starting from the sixth shot, the spider's snout will carry trace amounts of toxins - which will cause vomiting, local paralysis or dizziness."

"After ten rounds, starting from the eleventh to the fifteenth, the toxin becomes more lethal...I mean, there is a high probability of death."

"By the way, no previous owner of this gun ever fired a fifteenth round."

"relatively."

Fernandez took the Spider Kiss from Roland and carefully took out the cloth and wiped it: "Every time a shot is fired, the power of the bullet will increase. I once used it to kill a five-ring cultist... Yes, it's Yin. That’s what I thought.”

"It only took one bullet to kill him."

"Everyone below the tenth ring is a mortal."

After cleaning the gun, Fernandez reluctantly fiddled with it for a while before handing it to Roland.

"On a natural day when the sun rises and sets, the price and power are reset."

"Fernandez?"

Roland didn't understand.

Every "wonder" is precious.

What's more, this gun is as beautiful as a work of art.

"It's not for free."

The man smiled, grabbed Roland's hand, and pressed the gun heavily on his palm.

"It was given to me by Lady Enid when I was promoted to the first level. Counting the friendship price, discount plus internal benefits, and the usual scolding... Well, that's it, and it cost me two hundred pounds. ——Of course, I was lucky and it took me half a year to pay it off.”

"Now, two hundred pounds, give it to you."

This is too expensive.

"When you become a formal ritualist, you will come into contact with more and more "wonderful objects". This is my personal investment in favor for you. "

Fernandez imitated Roland and winked jokingly: "You will definitely be better than me in the future."

After talking about the gun, he took off the holster and gave Roland the bullet box on the table.

"Inside are a dozen bullets made from the remains of alien species. You should know that they are for guarding. These are all plated with silver, and one shot can eliminate spirits with low mystery (ring)."

"Here, these are standard bullets. They are not expensive. They can be used when they are open."

Fernandez piled everything in front of Roland, forming a small mountain.

"Silver-plated bullets..." Roland picked up a bullet and weighed it in his hand - it was heavier than ordinary bullets and had a flatter bullet.

"Yes, silver-plated ceramic bullets. Two for half a shilling."

Half, half a shilling? !

So, four or five rounds is equivalent to one day's wages?

Roland had the urge to exchange these bullets for small coins.

Why would anyone want to use this?

Maybe half a year's savings will be enough for one battle...

Fernandez patted Roland on the shoulder: "There is a subsidy. Every time you complete a mission, remember to increase the number... Just don't be too outrageous."

After saying that, he opened the drawer again with a cunning look on his face, and there were the same few boxes scattered inside.

It's just that the silver plating on the surface is a little darkened, and the box is also made of cardboard, with no decoration at all.

"Stop being a sharpshooter, you know?"

…

"Strange Object: Spider Kiss"

"Firearms (five-barrel pepper box)"

"White ivory handle, gilt pattern and quenched dark flowers."

"Each shot increases the power."

"Legend has it that if the person holding it can fire the fifteenth shot, he can even kill an immortal."

"1~5: The pain of a spider bite"

"6~10: Trace toxins (dizziness, vomiting, convulsions, paralysis, weakness, etc.)"

"11~15: Deadly Spider Fang (Unknown)"

"The power and cost are reset every natural day."

"Currently: 2"

…

Roland was still staring at the words, but Fernandez had picked another one from the wall and handed it to him.

"You'll also need a regular one for less troublesome situations. From today on, you owe me two hundred pounds, Roland."

"...it will take me ten years to pay off my debt, my debtor." Roland sighed.

"I guess you can pay it off in a few months."

Fernandez packed up the bullets and firearms for him and said jokingly: "Go to the salon and dress up. You are an 'invested' executive. I have never been treated like this."

Roland was a little confused: "Why?"

Fernandez shrugged: "Humanity, humanity, Roland. If you really cause any trouble, the money spent on us will be wasted - but the Supervisory Bureau is different."

"After all the law..."

"It's resilient."
