Storm of Gods

Chapter 9: Show of Marksmanship
Li Xin followed Mo Feng into the inner room. Mo Feng tapped the bronze beast with wings and a rooster face with his crutch twice, and the one next to him tapped three times. Then the wall opened, revealing a hidden space inside, which was even more spacious. There were more than a dozen people in night patrol uniforms training.

"If you put in more effort during training, you can live longer. Even though I'm missing a leg, at least I'm still alive. This is experience," Mo Feng said with a smile. He was quite proud of this. "What weapons do you usually use?"

"Captain Mo, I used to hunt with crude weapons made of animal bones and wooden sticks. I don't care much about cold weapons. I like knives, they look cooler. I'm also very interested in the Hextech Demon Sealing Gun. I saw the captain use it once." Li Xin said.

"Haha, you're an interesting guy," Mo Feng also felt strange. It was the first time he met him, but why did he feel that this guy was of the same kind as him? There was no awkwardness at all.
"As for weapons, it's up to you. They're all made of the finest steel and infused with mithril, so they're definitely powerful enough. Hexguns are good, but you can't rely on them too much. Skill is key to survival. I like swords. They're fast, they're my brothers, and they don't need to be loaded."

There were rows of weapons in the armory, some of which were marked with names, indicating that they had owners, and there was also a row of Hextech pistols. Seeing Li Xin's eyes shining, Mo Feng finally felt like a senior. Damn, if this kid was so calm when he saw everything, how could he pretend to be cool.

He picked up a Hexling Demon Sealing Gun and said, "Our Night Watchmen are well equipped. We have the new Judgment model, reinforced rounds, and can hold eight Mithril bullets at a time. Let's try it."

As he said that, he threw a gun to Li Xin. Li Xin took it. The handle of the gun was very comfortable and the workmanship was really good. There was a revolver with eight psychic bullets inside. The barrel was slightly long and the whole gun was dark gold, probably mixed with copper. The texture on the surface of the gun was very delicate. It was part of Hextech technology and could trigger psychic effects.

"The equipment here is all loaded with live ammunition and is ready for combat at any time. The bullets used in normal training are ordinary bullets. This stuff is very valuable." Mo Feng took out a mithril bullet and said, "Every time we use it outside, we have to register it when we come back. Basically, all the bullet casings that can be recycled must be recycled."

Then he threw a box of training bullets to Li Xin and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the training ground to have some fun."

Li Xin nodded, "Thank you, Brother Mo."

"Haha, boy, even though my legs are no longer as good as they used to be, my skills are still there. Today, I'll let you see the second best marksman among our Night Patrol."

Several people at the shooting range also stopped and greeted Mo Feng with a smile. It was obvious that Old Mo was very prestigious here. "The range of a Hextech rifle is thirty to fifty meters. Our extended barrel is actually about the same. The trajectory is more accurate. Of course, the power must be maximized, especially against those abyssal creatures. We have to get close and hit their weak points."

After saying that, Mo Feng stood twenty meters away from the shooting range, and fired the Hextech pistol in his hand... emptying the magazine directly.

All eight bullets were within the bull's eye range, which was very accurate. There was applause all around. Mo Feng was a bit pretentious, but he also had some skills. He didn't aim specifically, just shot casually, and his accuracy was very high.

Li Xin also held the Hextech gun, found the crosshairs himself, and fired a shot. His wrist trembled slightly and there was a little recoil, but the overall feeling was quite good. The bullet hit the outer circle of the bull's eye circle.

"Oh, not bad. There's nothing special about this thing. Practice makes perfect. Just practice it yourself and choose the cold weapons yourself." Mo Feng yawned and went back slowly.

Li Xin spent the entire afternoon at the shooting range, getting familiar with the feel of the Hextech gun. Every weapon has its own personality and characteristics, and you can master its habits by practicing a few times.

The Hextech Psionic Pistol feels very good, and with the coverage of psychic energy, there is a feeling of fusion with the body. Several team members who were training around were originally waiting to see a joke or something exciting, but when they found that Li Xin was getting more and more accurate, they soon stopped laughing and started their own training silently.

Li Xin couldn't be more familiar with guns. He really liked the feeling of hitting them, but changing bullets was a bit troublesome. He had to figure out his own way of changing bullets. If he had the chance, he would like to have two guns.

How can a real man refuse to double the firepower?

After lunch, Mo Feng relaxed and drank a cup of black tea, and his spirits recovered. Many of the training and logistics teams were composed of night patrolmen who had retired from the front line, and some were responsible for settling family members. The training here relies on self-consciousness. Even if they are not self-conscious at the beginning, they will become self-conscious after completing one or two tasks.

Life is the best teacher, and the desire to survive is the strongest motivation. People cannot teach others, but things can teach people once they are taught.

Mo Feng staggered back to the training ground and glanced at the other team members. What were these guys doing?
He left on purpose. After all, he was chosen by the boss, so it was not easy for him to show his power to others directly. But it was okay if other people didn't know about it. It was a custom to teach newcomers a lesson. It was not to bully people, but to kill their arrogance, especially the young ones. They had little experience and might not say it on the surface, but they were actually very crazy and cruel in their bones. This was not a good thing in the night patrol team.

"Ah Xin, are you saying that using both hands can increase stability?" "It's an option. When carrying out a mission, holding the gun directly can actually make it easier to hit the target immediately. It also provides greater stability. It might look a bit cool if you use it with your waist, but it will still take some time. Of course, it all comes down to personal preference. Do whatever's more comfortable and quicker."

"You're incredibly talented, and your shots are really accurate. No wonder the boss likes you. I heard you're the boss's nephew, so you're not an illegitimate child, are you?"

"Apart from the same gender, I don't think the captain and I have anything in common," Li Xin said with a smile.

Everyone burst into laughter. They all liked this kind of chatty newcomer. Seeing Mo Feng coming, they all left. "You're so relaxed during training. Let me test the results. Eight rounds of rapid fire, moving target."

The little guy is a little arrogant. Hitting a motionless target is the most basic of the basics. If you don't try a little harder, you won't know the depth.

"Can it still move?" Li Xin was stunned.

Mo Feng's mouth twisted, "Do you think a monster will just stand there and let you hit it?"

After that, he went to the wall to debug the mechanism. All the targets outside retracted. "You only have one minute, eight targets."

"Yes, Brother Mo!"

clack clack...

Accompanied by the sound of clockwork, the first target popped out with a ding-dong sound. Li Xin was already on standby with his gun and attacked immediately. Another target appeared and moved sideways at a rapid speed. Before Li Xin could retract it, he shot it. Another target popped out from the ceiling. Li Xin raised his hand and shot it, hitting it.

Mo Feng opened his mouth. This kid's gun-holding posture was very funny, but how could his reaction be so fast? Although he didn't know the accuracy, it was certain that he hit the target all the time.

Is this a rookie?

bang bang bang...

More than twenty seconds later, all eight targets had been hit. "Captain Mo, all hit, all bull's eyes."

The group of veterans present were so confused by this rookie that they didn't know what to say. Being accurate in shooting is one thing, but this kind of movement is not so easy to execute, especially for the first time, at the ceiling and in the corner, without enough insight, there is no time to react.

"Hehe, it's okay. It has a bit of the flavor of my old age. Brothers, take our new brother out to broaden his horizons tonight. A man needs to grow before he can mature." Mo Feng smiled while controlling the corners of his mouth.

"Brother Mo, seniors, today is the first day of moving. It is a big deal to move from the ground city to the city. I have to go home for dinner tonight, otherwise Aunt Fei will break my legs. I will treat everyone tomorrow." Li Xin bowed.

"Haha, that's fine. We agreed that it's not your turn to treat guests tomorrow. We night patrolmen are all treated by our seniors." Mo Feng patted Li Xin.

Everyone liked Li Xin. He was capable, not pretentious, and not shy about his background. Most of the people present were from the lower class. Then again, the young nobles would never come to be night patrolmen. They all lived on the edge of a knife. Li Xin's openness made everyone feel that he was the same kind of person.
