"Mr. Shimmering Sea," Father Taylor asked, "you know how to use a gun, right?"
Although the palm is rough, the inside is very delicate. When the priest shook hands with Sean for the first time, he felt the callus on his index finger——
That's what Sean has accumulated from gun training and actual combat in the past six months.
"That's right - I own a pistol as well as a Mauser rifle. They are my primary weapons in the line of duty."
The priest nodded: "That's good...
"I have an 'old buddy'. Unfortunately, now that I have picked up the Holy Book and the Cross, it is a bit inappropriate to hold a gun. You can use it if you want."
Sean, who was considering buying a new gun, followed Taylor to his desk.
From a locked cabinet, the priest took out a dark red cedar box.
His movements were quick and gentle, and he clearly valued the contents of the box.
With a click, the priest opened the clasp of the box.
Sean stood next to the priest and looked into the box...
Lying in the box is a carbine that has left traces of time.
"This is……?"
Taylor first gently stroked the gun body, and then skillfully took out the carbine, which was shorter than the Mauser rifle, from the box. He quickly opened the bolt with his fingers, checked the magazine, then raised the gun body and aimed at the spots on the ground. Test your accuracy.
"Made by Springfield Armory, using 7.62mm rifle cartridges.
"M1903 Springfield rifle, carbine version.
"In the European battlefield back then, I used it to kill nine Allied soldiers, and...
"The filth that haunts the trenches at night and wants to devour everyone."
Tyro handed the old gun to Sean.
The explorer took the gun with some confusion and looked at the gun body repeatedly.
The edges of the wooden stock have been worn away, and the metal parts have many scratches, but are regularly oiled and well taken care of...
and the inscription "Exercising His authority on earth on His behalf" with a rhombus emblem...
Newlandel's "skitarii" standard equipment.
It was adjusted to a perfect state by former veterans through actual combat.
Due to the blessing and use of Fagal Taylor back then, he has a certain spirituality, and combined with the Holy Judgment Silver Coin, it will stimulate a stronger exorcism effect...
Although it is not at the level of "mysterious legacy", it is definitely a good gun that can be used for exorcism.
Moreover, the pistol has a limited range and the Mauser rifle body is too long...
And this carbine version of the M1903 Springfield...
Sean maintained his shooting posture, and the barrel of the gun only extended out of his hand——
Just right.
Once you get it in your hand, you feel like you can't put it down.
Holding the carbine in place, the butt of the gun is placed on the shoulder, and the spirit essence gently feels the structure of this old gun...
Father Taylor's eyes originally stayed on his old buddy, but suddenly he noticed that Sean was holding his once beloved gun seriously and intently.
They are no longer the "partners" of the men in military uniforms covered in smoke and dust.
Rather, it is the weapon of the explorer who wears modern clothes and whose face is shrouded in mist.
The priest smiled: "It suits you quite well."
——
Just like before every mission, Sean started to keep himself busy again.
He first removed the pair of sharp blades hidden under the arch of Olivia's feet.
Since the reader's help was needed to remove the blade, Olivia could only sit on the sofa and put her petite feet in Sean's palm.
When the pair of frost-like blades made of alchemical metal were removed from under the arch of the foot...
Obviously, I often have physical contact with readers...
But why is the flywheel accelerating inexplicably?
Olivia actually felt the "shy" emotion. After taking off the foot blade, she quickly put her feet under her skirt.
It wasn't that Sean wanted to deprive Olivia of her melee weapons, but when he was fighting Franken's real body in Ocean City, Sean suddenly realized that he and Olivia could form a combat system...
He planned to entrust Olivia with the melee mission while he focused on mid-range and long-range threats.
Therefore, he brought the pair of sharp blades to the Ritual Weapon Forge on the fifth floor of the Explorer Center, and engraved a pair of "Intermediate Spirit-Navigating Sacred Patterns" on the frosty blade surface...
Her soul is connected to the candle bearer with a crimson bond. After Olivia attacks the enemy with the Holy Mark of Soul-Nading, the spiritual power absorbed will be transferred to herself.
Coupled with the abilities given to him by "The Return Scroll", Sean believes that in terms of spiritual power reserves, he will completely surpass his peers.
Then, he purchased a batch of spiritual bullets that were not filled with any properties, including both rifle bullets and pistol bullets.
After returning home and reinstalling the sharp blade on the Seiko girl's foot, he began the second stage of preparation:
In a home with a basic anti-spying mechanism, Sean began to use the power of the divine root to brew bullets with various effects——
The "black bullets" created with the power of the "Forgotten Wasteland" Shen Yu, being hit by such bullets will trigger the "forgetfulness" effect, making people temporarily ignore the existence of the victim.
The "Scarlet Bullets" brewed with the power of the "City of Two Suns" divine feathers will exude a strong atmosphere of fear no matter where they are around the initiator, where the scarlet bullets pass, or where they are hit, and will not only attack the physical body , it can also directly hit the soul, and is a good tool that can shock, drive away and subdue.
The "Cicada Bullet" is made from the "Black Sheep Forest" divine feather. Look carefully at the vigorous black fungi in the transparent projectile that are constantly pulsating... After this kind of bullet hits a living body, it can infect, corrode, and even drain life. Energy to heal Sean.
There are also the pale bullets of Gaynor and the green halo bullets of Ramses II...
Each one is like some kind of strange work of art, and each one has an incredible effect.
Sean consumed almost all his spiritual energy to make a batch of various types of bullets, which were placed in the "invisible stomach bag" by category.
A good gun with powerful bullets... Just preparing for the mission, Sean actually felt an inexplicable sense of euphoria and satisfaction.
Then, comes the final step.
He arrived at the "Black Market Divine Products" transfer warehouse at the dock with familiarity and purchased a batch of items that could be used in various tasks.
Psychic smelling salts, holy light bombs, holy silver coins, chanting rosary beads, holy flame indulgences, etc., as well as more intensely colored "holy land level" holy water...
"This time there is Father Taylor in the team...
"He is a clergyman of the Salvation Cult, so if those sacred items related to the Salvation Cult are given to him for use, they will have a stronger effect..."
Sean asked himself, now that he has reached the Queen level, his "phobia of lack of firepower" in the face of mystery has become much milder.
However, he is still the Sean who must be fully prepared before any event.
Therefore, even though he lost nearly 800 New Zealand dollars before the mission, he did not feel any heartache and still felt a sense of security after being fully prepared.
"Don't worry too much about income..."
Sean is confident that the revenue model that is slowly taking shape will be enough to provide him with the ability to gradually achieve his long-term goals, even if there is a cost for each task.
Time flew by in preparation, and finally it was the night of the "opening day" of Midnight Paradise.
According to the previous agreement, Sean drove the car and picked up Moonlight, who was waiting at home.
Mr. 1902, wearing his mirror mask, jeans and jacket that he usually rarely wears, boarded Sean's car empty-handed.
Sean estimated that in addition to the smelling salts in his button, Moonlight had at most one more box of smelling salts in his pocket...
Shimmering Sea just smiled and shook his head: "This is his style."
As if knowing that Sean would prepare everything, Moonlight became more and more casual.
The vehicle drove to the back door of the orphanage, and a tall figure could be seen standing by the street light in the distance.
Fagal Taylor was still wearing his pitch-black priest's robe, with the silver diamond frame and the "Holy Book" at his side.
Although judging from his attire, Father Taylor is no different from usual...
However, when the car stopped next to him, and through the light of the streetlight, Sean discovered that the priest was more resolute and calm than usual.
Open the car door and sit in the car silently.
His every move revealed solemnity and prudence.
If we saw him during the day, he was just an orphanage protector...
Then, Sean has been able to confirm: at this moment, he is a man with deep experience and no fear before the mystery——
The Exorcist.
