Chapter 26 Firearms and Ammunition
The Magic Empire is not xenophobic, provided that you do not disturb the lives of the locals or make their lives more difficult.

The people here have their own code of conduct, which is a little different from those who worship power. For most people here, all kinds of power are actually used to attack, including official power.

They would strike when there was an opportunity, and they would strike when there was no opportunity. For example, they turned many imperial nobles into mascots.

Power is a good thing, but it feels a bit mixed here.

Because the people here know very well that when power is no longer a burden, when everyone worships power and everyone pursues power, then their miserable lives will probably begin. Even if they are not devastated, their descendants will not be able to escape.

Faced with the weapons mall of large enterprises, even if they have the support of the imperial government, they must be made to know that this is not their territory. Mu Hua very consciously expressed his willingness to stand on the side of the residents of Bear Pig Town.

Although before encountering actual situations, Mu Hua may not be considered to have integrated into Bear Pig Town.

But after all, we have entered the observation period, right?

Just look at how close and casual Morey is when communicating with Mu Hua. After confirming with each other's eyes, we know they are both tough guys, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with them.

"Mu, who gave you this gun? It's a waste for you to hold it now."

"This gun can be loaded magically, unless you are a magician..." Old Morey said as he fiddled with Mu Hua's revolver. Then he saw Mu Hua spread out his palm, which held a flaming magic circle. Old Morey's voice paused.

"Tsk, engraving magic is useless. Can you use it as a lighter?" Old Morey pouted, not convinced, but envy flashed in his eyes.

Sealing magic can be said to be the introduction to elemental magic. Its effect is roughly to materialize the five elements of wind, fire, earth, water, and thunder. It is easy to learn and has no great power.

The basis for mastering engraving magic is to reach D-level magic adaptability, which is also the minimum entry standard for magicians.

After Mu Hua's adaptability to magic increased, the cat tinkered with it on the Abyss Island for several days and learned the engraving magic that he had memorized long ago.

"I can also cast fireball. It's only a matter of time before I master other basic types of magic." Mu Hua was a little proud. He really wanted to brag about magic.

"Now we are talking about guns! It's a gun, okay? If you know magic, just go and get a staff. At your age, how much magic power can you have? How many times can you reload?" Old Morey argued at first, but then became serious.

"Mu, do you know what profession has the highest mortality rate among young adventurers?"

"It's a magician! The monsters in the courtyard won't fight you one-on-one. Before you use up enough magic power, it's better to bring some magic grenades than the magic circle you show off." Old Morey said seriously.

"That's why I came to buy ammunition. Do you have grenades for sale?" Mu Hua spread his hands, with an attitude that said, "You old man are looking for trouble," which made old Morey's eyes twitch.

"You're going into the courtyard by yourself? Then your gun won't work. You can only buy explosives from the garrison regiment. If there is no forward, you need an automatic rifle." Old Morey said seriously.

"Do you have a machine gun here?" Mu Hua asked.

"The light machine gun can only fire level three exorcism bullets at best. Level four exorcism bullets are prone to explosion. But can you use it?" Old Morey questioned.

In Old Morey's opinion, after all, Mu Hua was just a young magician. If he could come to him to buy weapons, his physique would naturally not be that strong. A light machine gun is still a machine gun, unless it is mounted with a cannon, and the weight and recoil are not small.

"Probably, it won't work. How about getting a magic gun? Forget it, first help me see how strong the magic charge this pistol can withstand." Mu Hua hesitated and asked Old Morey to help him measure the strength of the revolver.

When in Lanton, Mu Hua had little chance to come into contact with proper firearms, and he really didn't know that his pistol could be loaded with magic.

This type of gun can temporarily store the magic cast by the user in the magazine for about three minutes, during which time the loaded magic can be fired through the gun. Due to the use of the gun for aiming, the accuracy and consistency of some magic are also better.

It is a bit similar to a staff and a magic scroll, but it does not have the ability to independently construct a ritual model like a staff, nor does it have the applicability of a magic scroll.

If an outsider takes someone else's gun that has been loaded with magic and fires it, the magic will directly activate the explosion in the ammunition bay, and one can imagine what will happen to the person holding the gun.

Testing the strength of the pistol? Old Morey had no objection to Mu Hua's request. He took out a palm-sized measuring instrument and scanned the gun repeatedly several times.

"It should be able to withstand all primary offensive magic. If it's of intermediate strength, there may be greater wear and tear. It's a pistol. If its inscription craftsmanship was placed on a spear, it might be able to withstand the intensity of the explosion." Old Morey said as he returned the gun to Mu Hua.

"You know a lot about magic?" Mu Hua was surprised that Old Morey could easily assess the strength of magic like Explosion.

"I've seen it in the video, so it's a reasonable guess. Besides, isn't a magic wand enough? Guns and live ammunition are the way to go." Old Morey was awkward and tough. It was really boring to chat with this kid.

"Oh, are you sure that this speculation won't kill anyone? Recommend me a few guns." Mu Hua was disappointed, thinking that he had met a hermit. "Come, let me show you the treasure of Old Morey's shop."

"Rockbreaker Hunter Model III, maximum power of 2,000 meters, can be loaded with level 7 exorcism bullets, lightweight enchantment, shock absorption enchantment, the only drawback is that it cannot be loaded with magic, affordable price, 400,000 credits, if you pay with demon coins, I'll take three of them."

Old Morey excitedly took out a large gun that looked like an anti-material rifle from under the counter.

How can it be the treasure of the store if it is just thrown under the counter? Mu Hua twitched his lips.

"Do you have a level seven exorcism bullet?" Mu Hua asked.

"There are three." Old Morey held up three fingers.

"Are you sure you are not promoting the weapons store in the future Bear Pig Town?" Mu Hua questioned.

"..." Old Morey was silent. He said he just wanted to kick away the thing that had been bothering him for many years.

The so-called levels of exorcism bullets are actually divided into three levels and nine grades according to the monsters.

Without taking into account defensive magic, a level seven exorcism bullet can penetrate the flesh of most level seven monsters, barely posing a certain threat to high-level monsters.

In fact, Loren's gun is not expensive. This Rockbreaker Type III is already a very powerful gun. After all, as long as it has magical adaptability, even a weakling can use it to injure or even kill some fragile high-level monsters.

However, compared to firearms, advanced bullets as consumables are more serious, expensive, and take a lot of time to manufacture.

This is why, despite the prosperity of magic technology, Loren still uses martial arts and magic as its main force to fight against monsters.

There is no other reason. Under the condition of healthy population growth, it is extraordinary, cheap, environmentally friendly, and the cost performance is really high. . .

"Ranger Type 1, semi-automatic rifle, can be loaded with level 3 exorcism bullets."

"Annihilator Type 1, light machine gun, can be loaded with level 3 exorcist bullets."

"Sharpshooter Type 1, sniper rifle, can be loaded with level 3 exorcism bullets."

"Do you want a pistol? What else can I recommend? They are just basic weapons." Seeing that the 'treasure of the store' could not be kicked out, Old Morey took down three samples from the wall with a lack of interest.

"Well... I want that rock-breaking sniper too. Give me the three bullets." Mu Hua thought.

"Haha, a funny joke." Old Morey curled his lips.

"I also want ten demon gold coins' worth of ammunition, from level one to level three." Mu Hua took out thirteen demon gold coins and slapped them on Old Morey's counter.

"Snap!" Old Morey's dry and hard palm slapped Mu Hua's hand that was holding the devil gold coin.

"I'll give you a set of basic firearms as well! Let go!"

. . . . . .

In an old shop beside the quiet streets of Bear Pig Town, Old Morey was happily dealing with years of accumulated inventory, and urged his son-in-law in a very arrogant tone to appear in front of him within half an hour with the exorcism bomb he needed.

When Mu Hua left Old Morey's Weapons Shop, more than 100,000 bullets were stored in his furnace space.

More than ten devil gold coins were gone, and Mu Hua felt heartbroken.

But there's nothing he can do about it, because he needs to practice shooting. Although he likes guns, he's not very good at shooting.

As for why he had to get three level seven exorcism bullets, Mu Hua thought that they might be able to be used on the monsters fished out of the abyss.
