Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 43 Equipment
If you have something to do with me, it’s not because you are still angry, so you can take it out on me...

Chris closed the door and followed Albert.

Albert opened the black iron door leading to the Steam Gate and said: "Chris, according to the rules and regulations of our Machinery Heart, all operating personnel should have exclusive guns."

"Ah!" Albert shouted, and the voice-activated gas lamp turned on.

"Although you are a reserve now, you are still considered an operational personnel. By the way, Chris, did you go to the shooting range this morning?" He then asked.

"I went to practice for a while." Chris replied truthfully.

"What gun were you practicing on? A revolver?"

"Ah."

In fact, there are only revolvers in the shooting range...

Chris thought to himself.

"Oh, actually you don't need to practice with the guns at the shooting range. Those are for ordinary police officers to practice with. The Heart of Machines has its own weapons."

Albert took out a bunch of jingling keys, opened the equipment warehouse, and then said:

"We in the Heart of Machinery use extraordinary weapons. Heavy weapons are generally only used in formal operations, and the usual guns are light weapons."

He opened a box full of weapons wrapped in tarpaulins.

Albert casually uncovered a piece of oilcloth, and a brand-new and shiny pistol appeared in his hand.

It was an automatic pistol, magazine-fed, and the overall design wasn't too different from anything Chris had seen on TV before.

Albert tried this pistol. The sound of the bolt parts was very clear, and there were no signs of slowness inside the parts.

He held up the pistol and introduced it to Chris: "The Russell standard pistol type X has improved sights and magazine design compared to the previous model. The barrel is also shorter, making it more suitable for concealment."

Russell standard pistol...

Emperor Russell, what are some things in this world that you haven’t touched yet...

Chris suppressed his laughter and asked, "Captain, is this my gun?"

Albert nodded and replied: "That's right."

He took out a bullet box from the box next to him and continued: "Here are three magazines of bullets."

He loaded the bullet box and pistol and handed them to Chris, reminding him: "Try not to use them in public places. Although the muzzle of the gun has a silencer design, the sound of the gun is still relatively loud."

Chris nodded and took it, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Captain, are these demon hunting bullets?"

"No."

Albert opened the box and took out a bullet and explained: "Although demon hunting bullets and ordinary bullets are both made of copper, you see, this bullet has a smooth appearance, no patterns, and is made of bronze.

The bullets with patterns are the demon hunting bullets, and there will also be the Triangular Holy Glory logo on the bottom.

You can also apply for a box of demon hunting bullets now, do you need it? "

"Then take a box, thank you captain."

It has just been a few days since the theft of the Tequila Bar, so it is better to be more prepared. Maybe one day a secret organization will come to your door...

Chris thought to himself, took the weapons and equipment handed over by Albert, and followed him out of the equipment warehouse.

In the dark corridor, Albert shouted to wake up the voice-controlled gas lamp. Under the dim light, he walked in front and said casually:

"The process for giving you the Russell pistol and ordinary bullets is the same, but for this box of demon-hunting bullets, you have to handwrite a claim report, sign it, and then ask me to stamp it. The headquarters requires records."

So the captain also asked me to get the bullets first and then fill in the application materials. No wonder Horik likes to "steal" spells...

Chris cursed.

"Oh," Albert suddenly stopped in place: "The person who should get you some more occult materials is also in the equipment warehouse."

Albert quickly turned around and walked back, and Chris also looked embarrassed.When the two left the equipment warehouse again, Chris already had several books in his hands, some of which seemed to have nothing to do with mysticism:
"Research on Ritual Magic", "Introduction to Mastery of Spells", "Ancient Fusac Grammar Collection", "From Giant Language to Elvish Language", "Selected Operas of the Southern Continent", "Poetry Collection of Emperor Russell"

Among them, the one that made Chris most curious was the dictionary-like "Collection of Poems of Emperor Russell".

Emperor Russell, I didn’t realize that you are still very talented in literature. I just don’t know if so many poems are original to you...

But even the anthology is actually in the occult equipment library. It seems that the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery really respects Emperor Russell...

Chris sat in the utility room converted into an office. After putting away the pistol and bullets, he first opened the book "The Poems of Emperor Russell".

"Dong dong dong."

Even though the door was ajar, someone knocked politely.

"Chris~"

Gray Anne poked her head out of the crack in the door: "Can I come in?"

How is it like being a thief...

Chris felt funny in his heart.

"Please come in."

Annie came bounding in, pulled up a chair and sat next to her: "Huh? Where did you get it... Oh, "Collection of Poems of Emperor Russell". The captain just brought you back from the equipment warehouse, right?"

Anne seemed to see Chris' doubts and explained for him: "Oh, although Emperor Russell is an Intis, he is also a member of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, and the church also collected many of the Emperor's works. .”

The works of the Great…

Chris's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly: "Do you have Russell's diary?"

I only thought of the existence of Russell's diary now. Alas, I should have thought of it earlier!

Chris was very upset. He should have thought of the existence of Russell's diary in this world, and then bought a few pages when Backlund attended the Extraordinary gathering.

"You mean the strange symbols created by Emperor Russell?"

"Yes!"

"By the way, wait a moment." Annie left quickly.

Is there really?

Anne came back within a few seconds, but what she held in her hand was not Russell's diary.

"Chris," Annie handed him a piece of jelly-like stuff, "Fruit caramel pudding, I just bought it, it's delicious!"

Sister, can you stop joking like this...

Chris took the pudding without tears.

"I don't have Russell's diary here," Anne carefully opened the paper holder and took a bite of the elastic caramel pudding.

"But, um, it's really delicious, won't you eat it?"

Annie looked at Chris in surprise. She couldn't believe that someone could resist the temptation of fruity crème brûlée.

"No, you can eat."

Chris pushed the fruit crème brûlée on the table to Annie.

Miss, what’s behind “but”? Can’t you finish what you want to say in one sentence...

Chris was infinitely depressed, but he was too embarrassed to express his thoughts.

"Well, where did I just say it? Oh, yes, but this "Collection of Poems of Emperor Russell" also contains the strange symbols he created."
