Chapter 90

Apple pie!

With a few shouts, Lemuen's demeanor suddenly changed.

In that instant, Han Fei clearly noticed that Victor's rate of fire had even increased.

A familiar term immediately popped into Han Fei's mind—Wow, could this be overload mode?!

The reason why Nengtian Exusiai the Laterano's gun in overload mode is because the Laterano's gun is not fully automatic and can only fire short bursts. But the Delta Force's gun is fully automatic!

Even a gun that can't fire fully automatically can unleash an astonishing rate of fire in Lemuen's hands. Now that a weapon capable of firing fully automatically has fallen into Exusiai's hands, its rate of fire becomes incredibly exaggerated under the boost of Overload mode.

For a fleeting moment, looking at the string of sparks, Han Fei wanted to tell Lemuen, "Turn it off! It's too violent and unreasonable."

But Lemuen, this really doesn't count as opening.

How can we possibly allow the use of operator skills to become widespread?!

Even more outrageous was that Exusiai's accuracy Exusiai high; almost every shot hit the head. None of the targets could stand still; they were all pressed down by Lemuen's burst of bullets as soon as they stood up again.

This headshot accuracy is incredible, it's like they've got a cheat code!

"Yahoo!"

With a cheer from Lemuen, Victor had a 70-round drum magazine, ran out of bullets in just a few breaths, a speed that defied logic.

At that moment, Han Fei suddenly realized something clearly—unless they were at a shooting range, he should never let this girl touch a high-rate-of-fire gun.

Especially the Tidal Wave!

Although the Victor's rate of fire is faster than the Tidal Wave, at least the Victor doesn't have gold ammo yet, and the consumption of level 4 ammo is much cheaper than black eggs.

One 9x39mm black egg shell is enough to buy two Victor Level 4 rounds, and there might even be some left over.

If Lemuen Han Fei still had the assets he had before his transmigration, he could squander them at will, but not now.

That's not allowed!

"That feels so good, boss!"

Having fired two empty drumsticks, Lemuen was still somewhat unsatisfied. She glanced instinctively at the small room again and tentatively asked, "Boss, can I try some other guns?"

What could Han Fei say? He simply nodded, somewhat indulgently, and said, "Go ahead, go ahead. This is a shooting range; bullets are free. Spend as much as you want."

"Yay! Thank you, boss!"

Lemuen placed the two guns at the firing window, then ran into a small room. A short while later, she came running out carrying four guns, saying, "Boss, modify these guns for me!"

Han Fei took a closer look and, wow, this girl really only picks the expensive ones: a K416, an M14, a K437, and an M250.

They are all weapons commonly found in Space City.

Han Fei picked up the guns, modified them as he spoke, and asked, "I heard you can control several guns at once?"

"Yes, it's quite simple."

Lemuen nodded her little head, then sneakily ran to Han Fei's side, gently nudged his arm, and said, "Boss, why don't you buy me a few more guns? I guarantee I can completely suppress the enemy with firepower and make them unable to raise their heads!"

If it were anyone else, Han Fei would only scoff and think, "Who do you think you are? An octopus that's become a spirit, controlling a bunch of guns at once?"

But this is Lemuen, and she really can do it.

Although Han Fei didn't know how she did it.

However, this matter is also recorded in the Record of All Beings.

Unfortunately, Han Fei doesn't have any Haf Coins right now.

Leaving aside the cost of buying guns, the consumption of bullets alone would be enough to give Han Fei a hard time.

Overload Exusiai, if you gave her a high-rate-of-fire gun, who could withstand it!

So, despite the tempting offer from Exusiai, Han Fei reluctantly said, "When the boss has money, buying you eight swords wouldn't be a problem, but right now, we really don't have any spare cash. I can only buy you one at most."

In this one round, Han Fei didn't even give her the best bullets.

Han Fei could even foresee that if he used all his firepower on her, no, even if it was level four ammunition, the casualties would be maximized.

Is 180 rounds enough?

It's enough for most people, but it's really not enough for Exusiai Exia!

"Eh~"

Lemuen immediately hung her head in dejection, saying pitifully, "That's such a shame."

"Once your boss makes a fortune from cutting tools, I'll definitely get you the best. But for now, let's stick with the cheaper ones."

Han Fei reached out and ruffled Exusiai's hair, saying, "Choose one of these guns. I'll give you a fully... partially modified one when we go out later."

"Can't you just give them all to me?"

Lemuen looked up, her bright eyes blinking. "Anyway, it's just gathering dust here, boss."

"Uh, it's not that I'm unwilling to give them away, it's just that they don't belong to me."

Han Fei explained, "If you can't do it, once you step outside the firing range, you'll find that you simply can't fire it."

"Yeah?"

Lemuen was skeptical, but picked up the two Victor and went outside.

She stood outside the firing range and tentatively pulled the trigger, only to be surprised to find that, just as Han Fei had said, the two guns seemed to malfunction even more once they left the range; no matter how she pulled the trigger, no bullets were fired.

Upon returning to the firing range, both guns immediately returned to normal.

"That's amazing!"

Lemuen looked at the shooting range in surprise and asked, puzzled, "Why is this?"

"Because I didn't spend any money to buy it."

Han Fei shrugged. "Don't even mention you, even I have to pay for my own gun and bullets."

"Oh."

Lemuen responded and then asked, "Boss, do you accept points here? I brought some back with me."

Points are the currency of Laterano.

Han Fei spread his hands. "It's obvious, I won't accept it."

Lemuen's shoulders slumped, and she said weakly, "That's such a shame."

So, which one do you want?

Han Fei pointed to the guns he had modified, "Pick one, I'll give it to you."

"Um..."

Exusiai pinched her chin, looking at the guns with a conflicted expression.

She wanted every single one, but if she could only choose one, she really couldn't make up her mind right away.

Seeing her so conflicted, Han Fei asked, "So, how did you choose these guns in the first place?"

"The feel of it."

Lemuen replied matter-of-factly, "The moment I touched it, I knew this gun was powerful. I'm sure I can unleash its full potential, no, two hundred percent of its power!"

This explanation is rather mystical, but considering that Lemuen is indeed a genius when it comes to playing with firearms, he decided to believe it.

"So, which one do you want? I recommend this one."

Han Fei pointed to the M250. The M250 is still a noble machine. Most importantly, it has the highest damage. Its slow rate of fire is not really a disadvantage in overload mode.

At the same time, if Lemuen doesn't activate the overload mode, the gun's normal rate of fire will reduce Han Fei's energy consumption.

Ugh, overloading an M250, just thinking about it is terrifying!

But to everyone's surprise, after trying them all, Lemuen didn't choose the M250, but instead chose the K416, saying, "I want this one!"

"Hiss."

Han Fei gasped when he saw Lemuen's choice, thinking to himself, "Girl, you really do choose whoever consumes the most energy?"

The K416 is considered a top-tier weapon in the 5.56 family, and it's often said that it consumes significantly less fuel than 7.62x51 weapons.

But in reality, the more you experience it, the more you'll find that this argument is completely untenable.

The K416 has a high rate of fire, but its damage is not as good as larger caliber weapons. Often, pulling the trigger will empty a magazine of bullets. If you kill the target, that's fine, but if you don't, it's a complete loss.

This situation occurs frequently because its damage is far less than that of a large-caliber missile.

For gunners, the consumption might be about the same, but for those who rely on shoddy guns, it's better to stick to using large-caliber weapons.

Lemuen noticed Han Fei's reaction and immediately realized she had made a bad choice, so she tentatively said, "What's wrong, boss? Is it not okay? If not, I can change it."

"It's fine, this will do."

Han Fei waved his hand, thinking to himself: At worst, I won't bring Exusiai any black eggs, I'll just use some level 3 and level 4 bullets mixed together.

The consumption of black-shelled chicken eggs is truly at its maximum.

Han Fei didn't want to gain a million in one go, only to find out that the battle losses were seven or eight hundred thousand.

"Really?" Lemuen was still a little uneasy.

"Real."

Han Fei nodded and said, "Would I lie to you?"

"Yay, thank you boss!"

Lemuen gave Han Fei a hug, then immediately returned to the shooting window.

She seemed to want to have her fill, and in an instant, six different weapons fired at the same time, leaving Han Fei completely dumbfounded.

Even though Lemuen only has two hands, the muzzles of those guns were all flashing at the same time. Han Fei had no idea how she did it.

Perhaps this is the inherent ability of Arknights operators?

Soon the gunfire subsided, Exusiai put down her gun, letting out a long sigh of relief. "This is simply paradise! I have so many guns to use, and my older sister is here with me. I'm so happy!"

Just then, Lemuen's voice suddenly came:

What is happiness?

Han Fei and Exusiai glanced sideways and saw Lemuen walking gracefully towards them, saying softly, "I couldn't find you in your room. So you were here."

"Sis!"

Exusiai buried her face in Lemuen, exclaiming excitedly, "I'm so happy!"

"I know."

Lemuen patted Lemuen's head. Through empathy, she could sense that her sister's emotions were entirely positive, and that strong excitement and joy were firmly transmitted to her heart.

Lemuen stroked her younger sister's head and looked at Han Fei, asking, "So, what are you doing?"

"I'm playing target practice with her," Han Fei said truthfully. "She seems to really like it here; there are plenty of guns for her to fire at will."

"Ah?"

Lemuen was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Isn't this too wasteful of money?"

She remembered that Han Fei wasn't exactly wealthy.

--They've sunk to the point of rummaging through trash cans in Laterano, how could they possibly be rich?

"There's no need to worry about that."

Han Fei explained, "The bullets at the shooting range are free; you can shoot as much as you want."

"That's good."

Lemuen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lemuen poked her head out and said, "Sis, don't always treat me like a troublemaker. I'm not that insensible. The boss is broke, I certainly wouldn't waste his money, okay?"

"Yes, yes, our Xiao Le is the most sensible." Lemuen smiled softly. "So, did you have fun?"

"You had a lot of fun, didn't you, boss?"

Lemuen looked at Han Fei subconsciously, only to see that the latter had a subtle expression and seemed somewhat distracted.

So, Lemuen called out softly, "Boss?"

The girl's voice brought Han Fei back to reality. He snapped out of his reverie and said to Lemuen, "Hmm? I'm here. What's up?"
