Chapter 7: With a Sharp Weapon in Hand, the Desire to Kill Arises

Oswald did not suggest accompanying.

Obviously, although he was not optimistic about the time concept and IQ of the student he taught, he believed in her martial arts. This also confirmed Aiwas's judgment.

Although he could not see Haina's attribute version, he knew just by thinking about it... After all, she was the best student in the best supernatural school in the country. In the absence of resources and previous education, she was able to keep up with the courses and even stand out among the elites in the country, which proved her qualifications.

Although she is now proud of the fact that she "became the inspector of the capital before graduation", in fact, it is nothing.

Although the Inspection Bureau is also an armored profession, its status is not very high. It usually handles civil cases. The main responsibilities are street patrols, maintaining public order, checking whether various shops meet safety standards, investigating some relatively simple supernatural cases, accepting civil reports, dispersing illegal gatherings, arresting low-level supernaturals, etc.

If they really encounter difficult enemies such as enemy spies, high-level extraordinary people, and cultists, the Inspectorate will be called in; and if a member of a knight family breaks the law, the highest-ranking Arbitration Hall will be called in.

"Arbitrator" is a high-level profession starting at level 30, and all members are young and middle-aged knight councilors who can enter the Round Table Hall. Extremely wealthy, well-equipped, and experienced, they are the most advanced elite soldiers in Avalon. The next level is those top-level strongmen.

Although Haina does not have a good origin or background... Even before graduation, she still looks clumsy and simple because of lack of experience and training.

But according to Aiwas's experience, under the premise of strong personal ability, having no origin and background and a straightforward and simple personality is not a bad thing.

She is now sent to the District Inspection Bureau as a front-line inspector, which is on the one hand to allow her to quickly accumulate experience, and on the other hand to lower her personal expectations of herself. Haina had no idea of ​​her own value. If she adapted to this kind of work that was obviously not worthy of her education and ability, then the leader who "promoted" her out of the ordinary would become a benefactor worthy of gratitude.

After a few more years, as she came into contact with society and accumulated enough work experience, her personal extraordinary professional level would also be improved. At the very least, she could get a position above the director of a district before she was thirty.

If everything went well, she would have the opportunity to join the Inspectorate at the age of thirty. It was not impossible for her to be granted armor by the Queen and enter the Round Table before she was forty.

Aiwass estimated that she should have a professional level of about level 20.

That is, the degree of mastering the second or even third level of extraordinary power - at least ten levels higher than himself.

With a level 20 big account, it was not difficult to play a level 10 dungeon.

Just in case, Oswald also gave Aiwass a pistol for self-defense in an emergency.

It was an exquisite women's pistol.

Its shape was similar to Haina's dagger style, and the shell had hollow silver thorns. It is only about the size of a palm. It is not a revolver common in this era, but a gas-operated magazine pistol.

[Lady's Grip +2]

[Refined Weapon (Dark Blue)]

[Firearm, Rapid-Fire Pistol, Capacity of Five Rounds]

[8mm Bullet (5/5)]

[Features: Its weight and volume are only 60% of a pistol of the same power]

[Elf Style: Failure rate is greatly reduced, maintenance cost is increased]

[Module-Elegant Aim: Accuracy is greatly improved]

[Module-Light Shooting: Recoil is reduced]

——Alright.

A lady's pistol is a lady's pistol.

Aiwass, who originally wanted to decline, happily accepted it after seeing the properties.

Refined weapons are already the strongest level that mortal craftsmen can make!

It is only one level lower than the purple extraordinary weapons that require extraordinary power to make.

What else do you want?

In the game, generally, the dungeons above level 30 can steadily explode blue equipment. As for the purple supernatural weapons, they must be made through ritual spells and alchemy, or they can only drop by killing high-level supernaturals.

Not to mention that the module of this gun is quite good - the only attributes of the blue equipment are fixed in characteristics and style, and the remaining random one to three attributes are all random. There are positive attributes and negative attributes.

Double positive entries, and the two attributes of "recoil" and "accuracy" are put together... This is a tool-type weapon that can be used even in the middle and late stages. At least it can be used to quickly fire some special effect bullets and ritual bullets that do not require damage.

Even if the high-level pistols are definitely more damaging, the accuracy may not be so high.

But just before Aiwas left, Oswald suddenly stopped him.

"The master said that you should remember to wear this. And put on the cloak."

As he said, he handed Aiwas a black neck cover and a black hooded coat.

Aiwass pinched the collar and soon realized its material: "Asbestos?"

"The Stranglers are rampant recently. If you plan to leave White Queens, it is better to wear an anti-strangulation collar."

Oswald, who was like a tall and thin ghost, said seriously: "They act quickly, and Ms. Haena may not be able to protect you all the time. The hood is to cover your identity - to prevent people with ulterior motives from remembering your face."

Aiwass put it on reluctantly.

He had heard of the Stranglers.

That's an upgraded version of a bandit.

In order to leave no one alive to track them, and also to improve work efficiency, they will suddenly jump out when passers-by pass by sparsely populated places or alley entrances, use a thin rope to strangle the other person's neck and drag them into the shadows. After successfully strangling the opponent, he then strips away all the valuable and worthless things on the opponent's body.

Citizens cannot report the crime immediately, and even the body is not easy to find. Because it kills directly instead of subduing or intimidating the opponent, it can also prevent oneself from being counter-killed by low-level extraordinary beings.

Although asbestos causes cancer...life is still more important. After all, I don’t need long-term contact.

It’s not that my level is too low.

If I were at level 20 or 30 now, would I still be afraid of those little thieves?

Seeing Aiwass put on a neck brace and a black cloak, the old housekeeper handed Aiwass a thick wad of banknotes: "This is the investigation fund given by the master. This is just your first investigation. It shouldn’t take much.”

Aiwass could clearly hear Haina next to him hissing softly.

He counted slightly. There were twenty silver-white, slightly reflective large banknotes in total, with crossed scepters and swords printed on them, and a white crown placed in front of them. This symbolizes the authoritative god "Silver Crowned Dragon".

There are also twenty red, medium-sized bills. There are ten pictures with five red candles painted on them and a number "5"; there are ten pictures with only one red candle painted on them and a number "1". This represents the god who devotes himself to the road and is also the "candle" served by the church.

This is a paper currency unique to the Kingdom of Avalon and can also be circulated in other countries.

The purchasing power of a "white crown" is approximately equivalent to one thousand yuan, and it can be exchanged for twenty "red candles" with a face value of 1. A red candle with a face value of 1 can be exchanged for ten small brown banknotes with the lowest face value, "copper hourglasses". The hourglass is a divine symbol of the balanced path.

In the Kingdom of Avalon, only the extraordinary professions of these three paths are legal.

That is to say, the value of a copper coin is approximately equivalent to five yuan, and a red coin with a face value of 1 is equivalent to fifty yuan.

An order of roast beef in a restaurant costs about six copper hourglasses, and an order of smoked pork costs two copper coins. A new and durable outfit costs almost seven red coins, not counting leather shoes.

"Remember to keep red coins and white coins separately. It's best to put them in three pockets."

Oswald warned: "If you can pay the bill with only low-denomination red coins, then don't just show that you still have a lot of white coins on hand - you are now limited in mobility and you don't have a manservant to accompany you. It may be There are more people targeting you. Those 'white crowns' are used to buy high-value targets, so don't use them if you can.

"If the red coins are not enough, you can go to the bank to exchange the white coins for red coins. If you are really worried that you have taken the wrong one, you can also ask Ms. Haina to hold it for you."

"I am not a 'ma'am'..."

Haina whispered, but did not refuse.

And Aiwass put all the white coins into her hands without hesitation: "Take it."

Although she was only holding it on behalf of others, she was still a little excited to hold this large amount of money.

In terms of quantity, twenty white coins are actually not too many. One semester's tuition at Wangli Law University costs sixteen white crowns—she has also received that much money before! At least during the first two semesters of my freshman year, my family paid for my tuition. It was only from her sophomore year that she received a scholarship to offset her tuition fees.

Moreover, they generally do not use Baiguan coins to pay in their daily lives. The most commonly used denominations are copper coins and red coins. The feel of the white coins in her hand was so unfamiliar to her.

But what made her most nervous was that she was particularly afraid that she would accidentally lose her money.

In fact, she also lost money. When she was very young, she accidentally lost her tuition fees because she was running around on the road... As a result, her mother cried that day. It was not heartbreaking crying, but just hiding aside and silently wiping away tears.

But that scene was deeply etched in Haina's heart.

From then on, she would no longer run wildly as she pleased on the road. Whenever she wanted to run, she felt like there was a weight on her leg.

She carefully searched several pockets on her body before she found one that she could safely put money in. But she didn't dare to take her hands away, so she could only use her elbows to protect her pockets, and from time to time she would use her hands to check if the money was still there. The other hand was placed next to the dagger that he regarded as life.

With a vigilant attitude, she pushed Aiwass's wheelchair out of Moriarty Manor.

"where are we going?"

She subconsciously asked Aiwass: "Is it the warehouse where the incident happened the day before yesterday? Or is it going to Stone Arch Park?"

"--No."

Noticing Haina's attitude, Aiwass breathed out lightly.

"That kind of place has been turned into a mess. You must have found out all the information you can get.

"Let's go east to the Pelican Bar."

Aiwass said.

"...Where is that?" Haina obviously didn't recognize the name of this place.

In other words, except for the two streets around the university in the Red Queen, and the line between the White Queen's Inspectorate, where she now works, and Moriarty Manor, she didn't know any place in the royal capital.

Her monthly living expenses of 50 red candles are only equivalent to one month's salary of a coolie. This level of living expenses does not allow her to run around in the capital.

"In Lloyd's Quarter."

"Lloyd's Quarter? Over there at the port?"

Haina's face changed, and she suddenly remembered the name of this bar.

She had indeed heard of the name of this bar!

When she first came to the capital, she was advised by a good friend she knew not to go to Lloyd's District if there was nothing to do; she trusted the other party very much, so even if her roommate often encouraged her to go to the bar in Lloyd's District, she was very determined not to go.

Of course, part of the reason was that she really had no money. And she was embarrassed to ask her friends to treat her.

Because she had made up her mind not to go, she automatically blocked those words in her mind. She was afraid that she would hear too much and accidentally fall in love.

Haina remembered that the name she had heard most should be "Old Captain Bar". There were often Kingdom navy soldiers on vacation going there to drink. They liked to go there to find handsome guys - young, strong, handsome, and they had been out at sea for a long time without meeting women. One hook is a sure thing.

One of her roommates found a young navy as her boyfriend. It is said that he is a sergeant and always brags that he is carrying out some secret mission... I don't know if it is true or not.

If it was a secret, how could he tell it to these female college students?

Haina didn't quite believe it.

In the small town where she was born, the blacksmith always boasted that he had been to the capital before, and that he was knowledgeable and cultured.

Later, when she came to the capital herself, she learned that the uncle's "been there" meant that he was an apprentice at the age of twelve or thirteen and wandered to the capital to learn a craft, but he couldn't stand it and ran away after a few years.

The way he boasted about himself at that time was exactly the same as that of the sailor.

And her roommate only mentioned the "Pelican Bar" to them once. The reason Haina was impressed was that only when she mentioned the Pelican Bar did the sister's face not have that kind of sly smile for the first time, but was very serious.

What she said at that time was... to buy some materials.

The Pelican Bar... is it a place that sells some materials?

Haina was puzzled, but she didn't say it out loud.

She subconsciously felt that it was a bad thing, and she didn't dare to say it in Moriarty Manor, especially under the gaze of the elf butler.

For a moment, Haina was also a little moved. She had never dared to come to such a place before, on the one hand because she was afraid of spending money, and on the other hand because she was afraid of danger.

But now, she has become stronger. She is also wearing armor that represents the glory of justice, and Aiwass has investigation funds in his hands-she can finally go to the place where she was curious but had no chance to go!

After all, this is also her first independent investigation. Haina did not have any ideas for investigation. She mentioned the warehouse and the stone arch before just because she happened to remember these two places.

Even Director Kent did not ask her to get any important information in this investigation, but just asked her to protect Aiwass and not to take risks.

- Of course she will protect him! She will do it without special instructions!

"Lloyd's District is Lloyd's District, let's go!"

Haiina responded readily: "I will protect you-if there is a blind thief who dares to trouble you, I will let him know what is the punishment of law and justice!"

Only when talking about this topic, her voice is loud and clear...even impatient.

With a sharp weapon in hand, the desire to kill comes naturally.

This is all within Aiwas's expectations.

After training for so long, the level has been raised to this level, but he has never really fought against the enemy... It is normal to be a little excited.

"So, are you ready to kill, senior sister?"

Aiwas narrowed his eyes like a fox, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth that was not sure whether it was kind or sarcastic.

Haina was stunned for a moment.

Then, she said seriously: "In fact, I have killed someone."

Oh?

Aiwas raised his eyebrows.

This was an unexpected answer.

"Then let's go."

He did not ask further, but just whispered: "My legs and feet are not working well, please push me."

"It should be."

Haina breathed a sigh of relief and answered quickly.
