Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 21 The Mercenary Club

Chapter 21 The Mercenary Club
There are three receptionists at the front desk, one of whom guides Hobert to familiarize himself with the club and does not affect the work of the front desk.

The receptionist who entertained Hobert was a young girl in her twenties, smartly dressed and very talkative.

She introduced herself: "You can call me Anas, does Mr. Hobert want to practice with a pistol or a rifle?"

Hobert said, "Hi Anas, I want to practice with my revolver."

"Okay sir, the pistol shooting range is in the backyard!" Anas introduced: "You can go to the weapon showroom to choose a gun and get the bullets.

"Each member has a free quota of [-] rounds of ammunition per month. If you have a 'gun license', these bullets can also be taken out for use, but if you don't have a 'gun license', you can only use them in the shooting range. .

"In addition, the club will provide members with practice guns, which can only be used in the shooting range. If you want to buy a gun, you need a 'gun qualification certificate'. The guns here are more complete than any weapon store, and the price is cheaper."

While talking, Anas took Hobert to the weapons showroom, which was full of beautiful things, including all kinds of pistols, shotguns, rifles, and even high-pressure steam rifles.

Ana Si introduced: "The firearms here, except for high-pressure steam rifles and new submachine guns, you can choose any other types of guns."

Under the guidance of Ana Si, Hobert saw the submachine gun. In his memory, he had never seen this type of submachine gun. It had a bulky body and a round magazine.The only place that Hobert was familiar with was the magazine inserted on the top of the machine gun.

Hobert asked, "Can I buy a machine gun, too?"

If you go out with this thing on your shoulders and face to face, there will be no opponents below Sequence 7!

"Sorry sir, you are not eligible to buy it." Anas explained with a smile: "Only mercenary squads who have joined the mercenary club for more than three years, or veteran officers can buy it.

"After purchasing, it is not allowed to hold and use in the city, and every three months in the future, you need to send the gun to the club for inspection, and report the use of the gun in the past three months.

"Even if it is scrapped, or the gun body has suffered a serious blow, the main parts must be brought back."

Hobert understood: "Avoid leaking secrets!"

"Yes." Anas smiled and said, "The high-pressure steam rifles and submachine guns produced by the Kingdom of Loen are the most advanced firearms in the world, and they haven't even been deployed on a large scale in the army."

Hobert sighed: The backstage of this club is very hard!
He still chooses a revolver honestly. There are several kinds of revolvers here. There is a revolver with a long barrel that looks very powerful, but the gun body is too heavy and it is not convenient to carry.The one that was too small didn’t seem to have any deterrent effect. In the end, Hobert chose a pistol with a barrel as long as an adult’s palm, and the gun body looked quite industrial.

After choosing the gun, Hobert took another fifty rounds of ammunition, and left the weapon display warehouse.

Anas introduced the location of the dining room and the bathroom, and informed the time of lunch, and then she took Hobert to the shooting range.

On the way there, Hobert asked: "I heard that there are also gatherings or information exchange discussions here?"

"Yes." Ana Si said: "There is an information wall in the second room on the left on the third floor, where you can write information for free release, as long as you have the club's badge, you can enter the door.

"For some valuable information, you can write down the introduction of the information, or a few keywords, and leave a communication method with the staff. If there is a buyer, we will immediately contact the seller of the information.

"In addition, the party is once a week, in the first room on the left on the third floor, starting at 02:30 on Sunday afternoon, and you can participate with the badge of this club."

Hobert nodded, today is just the time to go and have a look.

After going out, the shooting range is in front of you.

It seems that the backyard was originally a garden, and there are many ornamental trees and flowers around the shooting range, but there is no one to take care of them, and these plants are a little listless.

Hobert asked casually: "It seems that the venue of the club used to be a residence."

"Yes." Anas, who was leading the way, said, "This used to be one of Viscount Pound's properties."

Hobert was taken aback. Is it Rafter Pound's "Pound"?

He asked as if chatting: "Pound? Why do I have no impression of this Viscount?"

Anas said casually: "It is said that Viscount Pound was demoted to a baron more than ten years ago because the lord was obsessed with gambling and drinking."

Hobert asked again: "How many other members of the Pound family are there now?"

"I heard that there is only one person left in the whole family." Anas shook her head: "I don't know very well."

Hobert let out an "Oh" and didn't continue to ask.

Arriving at the single shooting range, after Anas left, Hobert did not immediately practice shooting, but thought about the Pound family.

According to Hobert's observation a week ago, Rafter usually behaved like a down-and-out nobleman. It was basically certain that Rafter Pound should be a member of the Pound family.

But the question is, why can Rafter be seen in the stars in front of the "Iron Throne"?
If it is said that Elliot Balck's stars appeared in front of the "Iron Throne" not because of the curse, but because he is a member of the extraordinary family of the "lawyer" pathway, and his stars can only be found in the pool, then Pound Could the family also be an extraordinary family with the "lawyer" approach?
Thinking of this, Hobert shook his head.There is too little information now, and it is not easy to investigate rashly, so we can only observe for a while.At that point, you can ask "Miss Justice", who is also a nobleman, to help investigate the down-and-out nobles in Backlund. After obtaining enough information, you can use the character of "Nation of Disorder" to bluff Rafter, maybe you can get more Information.

Having made up his mind, Hobart decided to put the matter aside for now. Although it would be much more convenient to have a "believer" of his own in Backlund, he couldn't take any risks.

Hobert began to concentrate on gun practice. After firing a few shots, he ejected the cartridge case and reloaded the bullets. He concluded: Even if it is a revolver, the shock when shooting is very strong. Of course, it may be the power of the gun he chose. , because it is larger than the pistols on the market.

Then he began to try to shoot with his spirit vision turned on. After all, when he was hostile to others in the future, he would have to fight with his spirit vision turned on.

After firing six bullets, Hobert found that his hit rate was much higher when his spirit vision was turned on.

This should be the effect of Extraordinary traits, not only has the method of discovering the opponent's weakness, but also has a bonus to the accuracy of attacking the opponent's weakness.

The only regret is that this body is not very suitable for using pistols, so the hit rate is only a little higher, and there is still a long way to go before "one shot at a hundred hits".

After firing more than 20 bullets, Hobert's arm was numb from the shock. He rested for more than ten minutes before firing all the remaining bullets.

Next, Hobert planned to go to the information wall to have a look.
