That night, it was Lu Ning and Lin Xiao's turn to be on night duty.

Lin Xiao went to watch soap operas as usual, while Lu Ning, having run out of soul crystals, could only temper his mental power little by little.

The night passed quickly.

The next morning, Lu Ning had just finished his mental energy tempering and was about to go to the captain's office to ask Lin Xiao for breakfast when he heard footsteps approaching rapidly.

Lin Xiao pushed open the door and entered, his face beaming with surprise: "Lu Ning, I have some good news to tell you!"

Lu Ning looked at Lin Xiao with a puzzled expression: "What good news?"

"Didn't Colin apply for firearms and equipment for you yesterday, and also help you exchange your merits for a Soul Weapon? The results are in!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ning immediately asked, "How is it?"

"Director Wang personally approved the application and plans to give you a firearm-type soul weapon. Since you don't need firearms, you can just use the soul weapon directly. The people escorting the soul weapon should arrive soon."

Lu Ning smiled and said, "That's pretty good."

Lin Xiao patted Lu Ning on the shoulder and said, "You're lucky! To be honest, I didn't expect your application for a Soul Weapon to be approved. It must be because Director Wang thought that your mental pollution level wouldn't increase, making you very suitable for using a Soul Weapon. Plus, Colin also mentioned in the application that your marksmanship is very accurate, so it was approved."

Lu Ning nodded slightly and said, "With a soul weapon, my strength should improve. If I encounter any powerful opponents, I should be able to help them."

Lin Xiao was taken aback, then smiled and said, "You helped me a lot last time. If it weren't for you, I might have fallen ill."

Lu Ning didn't dwell on the topic and said, "I'm hungry, let's order takeout."

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"Tofu pudding, salty."

"Heretical! Tofu pudding tastes better when it's sweet!" Lin Xiao glared angrily.

Lu Ning said calmly, "I only eat salty food."

Lin Xiao: "..."

He stormed out of the room and went to order takeout.

After a while, Colin, Wang Qiwen, and the others arrived at the activity room one after another.

After hearing that Lu Ning's application for a soul weapon had been approved, Wang Qiwen and the other two looked at Lu Ning with envy.

“Lu Ning’s marksmanship was already very accurate. Now that he has a new soul weapon, isn’t he invincible?” Wang Qiwen tried his best not to appear envious, but his distorted expression was obvious.

Colin smiled and said, "With Lu Ning's marksmanship, combined with the Soul Weapon weapon, he can at least deal with third-tier infected and awakened individuals, and maybe even fourth-tier infected and awakened individuals."

Qiu Yuelin was somewhat shocked: "Is it that amazing?"

Lin Xiao, who was standing next to him, stuffed a steamed bun into his mouth and said, "It's normal. Low-level Awakeners are actually quite weak. They might be able to withstand normal firearms, but the power of soul weapon firearms is very strong. With the physical defense of a low-level Awakener, they simply can't withstand it, unless they have special abilities."

"However, things are different at the mid-level Awakener level. After the fifth level, their abilities become very strong, and their bodies also become much stronger, making them much harder to kill. Didn't you see how many times Lu Ning used the Soul-Shaking Fist and hit that cultist's head with the Serpent Staff?"

Wang Qiwen looked on with envy: "That's still pretty impressive, isn't it?"

Wei Xuan also sighed, "We entered the Fog Bureau at the same time, but I didn't expect Lu Ning to be so capable now, while the three of us are still newbies."

Qiu Yuelin was also dejected.

Wang Qiwen opened his mouth as if to refute that he wasn't a newbie, but thinking of Lu Ning's performance the night before last, he silently shut his mouth.

Colin smiled and said, "You don't need to compare yourself to Lu Ning. He's special. After all, his mental pollution level has always been 0%, which is incredible for all humans. Not to mention his own strong talent."

These words made all three of them nod repeatedly.

Qiu Yuelin said with starry eyes, "Brother Lu Ning's talent is really amazing. No matter what it is, he can learn it in one go, and he learns it better than Elder Qin and the others!"

Lu Ning calmly said, "I just think those things are quite simple, and I should be able to master them."

Wei Xuan's lips twitched slightly, and he said with a wry smile, "A genius's ideas might be different from others."

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the activity room.

Qiu Yuelin, who was sitting by the door, quickly got up to open it.

Yu Ran was standing outside the door, accompanied by several members of the Mist Bureau wearing trench coats.

Lu Ning discovered that the one leading the group was an acquaintance.

It was a scorching wind.

Yan Feng held a black metal box in his hand, his expression as nonchalant as ever.

Yu Ran said, "Captain, they said they have something to discuss here."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Yan Feng, did you come here to bring something?"

Yan Feng nodded slightly and said, "Yes, the goods you requested have arrived."

As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Ning, a look of solemnity and apprehension appearing in his eyes.

Lu Ning's performance at headquarters remains fresh in his memory to this day.

"Come in."

Yan Feng nodded and then went into the room. Lin Xiao then said to Ran, "Ran, take these brothers to the reception room and make them some tea."

Yu Ran nodded: "Okay."

Yu Ran left with the others, and Yan Feng tossed the black box onto the coffee table, collapsed onto the sofa, and laughed, "Your goods, shall we check them?"

Lin Xiao and the others all looked at the black metal box at the same time.

Lin Xiao looked at Lu Ning: "Your things, you go open them?"

Lu Ning nodded, stepped forward and unlocked the metal box, inside which were two pistols.

The pistols were red and white; the red pistol had rose patterns on it, while the white pistol had wild rose patterns on it.

"Dual Pistols: Red Rose and White Rose, low-risk Soul Weapons. These dual pistols are a pair, and their normal power is much stronger than a sniper rifle, but the recoil is also very strong. Even a second-tier body-enhanced Awakener might not be able to withstand the recoil from firing continuously."
