"Brothers! This is the first mission assigned by the master to us! Just follow Mr. Xie and do your job well, no problem!" Zhao Lie shouted.
"No problem!!" everyone shouted in response.
Xie Xian smiled awkwardly: "No need to shout so loudly."
"Brothers of the Dragon Team, rest assured. This operation is very dangerous. If anyone doesn't want to go, just tell me. I won't force you!"
Zhao Lie came close to Xie Xian and whispered, "Sir, after the master comes to Beijing, we will no longer be called the Dragon Group. This is treasonous!"
Xie Xian was stunned, turned his head and asked, "What's that called?"
"Call the Demon Slayer Corps!" Zhao Lie said with a serious look on his face.
"Huh? What does Demon Slayer Corps mean?" Xie Xian was confused.
Zhao Lie looked at Xie Xian with disdain. It seemed that the teacher who taught him how to read and write didn't study hard enough, and now his level has seriously regressed!
"Don't you understand this? As the name suggests, if anyone offends the master, we will kill him and turn him into a ghost! If a ghost offends the master, we will kill him anyway!"
“…Alright.”
Xie Xian was speechless for a moment... This was not the first time that the master had given these weird names.
Call me whatever you want to say love!
"Okay! Since everyone is willing to go, let's just wash up! Follow me to the armory to get equipment!"
........
Half an hour later, more than twenty people headed towards the armory.
Xie Xian was not familiar with the armory, but with Zhao Lie leading the way, he became much more familiar with it.
When we arrived outside the armory, there were ten soldiers guarding it.
Seeing that it was an acquaintance, he didn't put much guard and let him go after a routine check.
When we entered the armory, we saw some swords placed crookedly, as well as some dusty uniforms of detectives.
Xie Xian couldn't help but said with some disappointment: "That's not right, why do we only have so little equipment? It's useless to bring these with us. I remember that our equipment is better than the ones here!"
Zhao Lie chuckled: "These are just for show. There are always outsiders coming to the county now! If anyone wants to spy, just let him see. The master told us to keep a low profile."
"We're not going into this armory, we're going into this one!"
After saying that, Zhao Lie put his arms against the wall beside him and exerted force suddenly!
The hidden stone door began to turn slowly, revealing a deep cave entrance.
Xie Xian looked at the stone gate and said thoughtfully, "So we have an armory underground?"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Lie lit a torch and replied, "No, it's just that the original armory has been moved underground. It's a bit troublesome, but it's safe enough."
Zhao Lie walked into the stone gate with a torch and went down the steps, with Xie Xian following closely behind him.
The view was a little dim, the space was very cramped, the group walked a little slowly, and the atmosphere was inexplicably tense.
Xie Xian took the initiative to speak: "I haven't been to the dungeon for a long time, I wonder if there are any changes down there?"
Zhao Lie smiled and said, "What changes can there be? It's so dark here. Who would want to be here except the people from the Firearms Research Institute?"
"But the cement the master made is really amazing. It is still so strong after all these years. Everyone thought it would collapse at the beginning."
As they were talking, they had already reached the second underground floor, and a corridor appeared in front of Xie Xian.
This corridor is deep and long, but a little short.
Everyone passed through one by one, bending their waists slightly, until they arrived in front of the real armory, and the space suddenly became clear.
When Zhao Lie knocked on the door of the armory, the door was slowly opened.
A head appeared from the door, with white hair and beard. He looked at Zhao Lie helplessly and said, "I thought the shift changer had arrived. Why is it you?"
"It's not winter yet! Why do we have to hunt now?"
Xie Xian silently handed over Fang Zhengyi's letter. The old man took the letter and read it carefully twice.
He said, "Come in, those with torches, please don't come in yet. Get your things and leave quickly."
People began to hand over torches, and about ten people entered the armory to receive equipment.
Xie Xian stood in the room and began to look around.
The area of this room is not too big, about the same size as the armory on the ground.
Dozens of oil lamps were lit on the wall, and the light was reflected by lenses.
With the dazzling array of armor, swords, and various weapons hanging on the walls constantly reflecting light, the visual underground is not too dark.
Zhao Lie and others searched for equipment with ease.
Several large boxes were quickly packed out, and Xie Xian went over to take a look.
Daggers, crossbows, soft armor, various protective gear...and some bottles and jars of different colors.
After collecting everything, Zhao Lie patted the dust off his hands and said, "Okay, these should be enough to protect myself."
"But we still need to get some things from the Firearms Research Institute."
Xie Xian asked curiously, "I remember that the master had already stopped the production of gunpowder a long time ago, right? And what's the use of the stuff there, which is heavy and clumsy?"
Zhao Lie smiled and said, "The gunpowder production has indeed stopped, but the research institute has not. They really have a lot of good stuff!"
"The master asked you to come to us as a guard, which means this time is actually very dangerous."
"The equipment we have is enough, but you can't. Go get you some weapons for self-defense!"
"What is it?" Xie Xian asked.
Zhao Lie shook his head: "I can't explain it clearly. I've only seen it once and it was a half-finished product. I don't know if they have finished it. Let's try our luck."
