My Computer Leads to an Instance Dungeon-Chapter 198 - 160: Viper_3

"Alright, I’ll take it."

"I want two of them."

Li Zoyi looked at Fang Zhen for a moment.

"What is it?" Fang Zhen asked.

"I was just curious. So this is the type Xia Siwei likes," Li Zoyi said. "I think I see why. You’re very straightforward."

"I’m also curious how you and Xia Siwei became friends. You two have completely different styles," Fang Zhen replied.

"Opposites attract? Then again, I wasn’t like this in high school. A few years out in the world can change a person," Li Zoyi said.

After settling on the price, Fang Zhen paid Thirteen Thousand US Dollars to get the handgun Li Zoyi had brought with her.

Tomorrow, Li Zoyi would take Fang Zhen to a shooting range to pick up the other gun, along with ammunition, a holster, and other accessories.

Before leaving, Li Zoyi gave him a special warning.

"Since you’re new here, be careful at night. Try not to go out. It’s pretty chaotic around here—so much so that residents can legally carry guns for self-defense."

"When we go to the range tomorrow, I’ll bring the other gun for you. I guarantee you’ll have a blast shooting it."

"Okay."

Li Zoyi left with the money.

Fang Zhen closed the door, walked to the table, and picked up the handgun to get a feel for it.

The next morning.

At the shooting range.

Fang Zhen and Li Zoyi were at the shooting range, doing live-fire practice.

Fang Zhen tested the Desert Viper handgun he had bought, getting a feel for it with live ammunition.

He was very satisfied with the results.

Li Zoyi hadn’t been exaggerating. When firing the Desert Viper in rapid succession, there was practically no recoil. The muzzle was incredibly steady and didn’t drift, feeling as stable as a first-person shooter game.

Not only did the gun look cool, but its specs were also top-notch. As long as he kept his hand steady during rapid fire, the bullets flew in a nearly straight line, with the impacts clustered tightly together.

Firing at a paper target thirty meters away, Fang Zhen activated his skill and was able to empty the magazine with all the bullet impacts concentrated within an area the size of a nickel.

Such precision even surprised Li Zoyi a little.

Fang Zhen fired nearly four hundred rounds, and both Desert Vipers performed smoothly.

He ran a mental simulation. ’In a dungeon, whether I’m firing from a fixed position or shooting at moving targets, with two Desert Vipers in hand, I should be able to mow down any ordinary mobs.’

Fang Zhen took both guns and also bought 1,000 rounds of nine-millimeter ammunition from Li Zoyi.

The Desert Vipers used standard nine-millimeter rounds. Loose rounds were more space-efficient, with each bullet taking up about five cubic centimeters.

After placing the two Desert Vipers into the Silver Moon Treasure Box, the remaining space was just about enough to fit all the ammunition.

Fang Zhen didn’t have enough cash, so he used Gold Ropes.

Li Zoyi was surprised that Fang Zhen was using such an old-fashioned method to buy guns, but she didn’t ask any questions. After confirming the gold was real, she accepted 25 Gold Ropes for the guns and ammunition, valuing each Gold Rope at 550 US Dollars.

With that, the transaction was successfully completed.

In the afternoon, Li Zoyi drove Fang Zhen back to the Oak Hotel in the Upper City District.

At the hotel entrance.

Fang Zhen got out of the car. Before they said goodbye, Li Zoyi said, "You’re quite generous. You’ve made a good impression on me."

"Next time you’re in town and want to have some fun with guns, I’ll show you some even better high-end stuff."

"Sure, just don’t charge me so much," Fang Zhen said.

"Hey, my earnings are all above board; I even told you my profit margin," Li Zoyi said. "I only sell quality goods. If you can afford it, I can get my hands on some hard-to-find items. I especially like clients like you who pay in cash."

"See you next time, then," Fang Zhen said.

Li Zoyi waved and drove off in her Jaguar.

"Heh, what a cool girl." Fang Zhen chuckled as he watched her leave, then turned and entered the hotel with his briefcase.

「Two days later.」

Fang Zhen returned to Xiahai.

He had fully accomplished his goal for the trip, having bought two Desert Viper Handguns and one thousand rounds of nine-millimeter ammunition, all of which he brought back inside the Silver Moon Treasure Box.

His trip to Houston had been efficient, with no time wasted, but his return was cutting it close.

In less than 36 hours, Act Three of the Curse Seal World, "The Bloody Lord," was set to begin.

After returning to his home in Xiahai, Fang Zhen first took a long nap to recover from his journey.

The next day, after waking up, he went to his company.

He Yilin had already sold the Dog Head Gold to Chen Baokun for an agreed price of 760,000.

Fang Zhen was fairly satisfied with the price. With this money added to the company’s accounts, he at least wouldn’t have to worry about paying his employees’ salaries this month.

In addition, he also picked up a suit of full plate armor that had been mailed from Russia.

Ever since he started the company, he had used it as his delivery address, so someone was always there to receive packages for him.

Also, as per Fang Zhen’s request, one of his employees had found a large-capacity, sealed metal case on the market.

This kind of thing was not normally easy to buy. The employee was quite capable; after hearing Fang Zhen’s requirements, he had found a sealed metal case used for transporting art and antiques. It was a bit heavy, but it had a good seal and a large capacity.

High-strength straps had also been added to the metal case as requested.

In terms of both its appearance and size, it really did look something like the boxes used to carry the Holy Garments.

Fang Zhen was quite satisfied.

Once disassembled, the plate armor could just about fit inside the case, with room to spare for plenty of other equipment and medicine.

He loaded the plate armor and the metal case into the trunk of his car and took them home.

Furthermore, he also bought a medical-grade refrigerator and two safes and had them delivered to his home.

The medical refrigerator was for storing certain items obtained from the Curse Seal World, such as the cerebrospinal fluid of an Abnormal Ghost and the Alchemy Ointment.

As for the safes, one was for storing the Gold Ropes, and the other was for the Molotov Cocktails.

Molotov Cocktails were very useful, but keeping them at home was dangerous.

When he wasn’t in a dungeon, Fang Zhen didn’t store any at home; he would destroy any he had made.

But once a dungeon began, they were consumed quickly, so he had to prepare some in advance.

Having a safe made things much more secure. It could act as a blast container, so even if one accidentally went off, it wouldn’t endanger his home.

By the time Fang Zhen had made all his preparations and his body was well-rested and in peak condition...

...there were only a few hours left before the start of Act Three of the Curse Seal World, "The Bloody Lord."
