Chapter 14: You're so strong

.

.

.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache, there was really nothing he could do to Ye Chen. Now, in terms of force value, the current Chen Luo was slightly inferior to Ye Chen.

Then, when comparing his status and background, he was also no match, or more like, Chen Luo didn’t have any status and background at all.

Zhao Yingxuan could not be considered to be his background, and Chen Luo felt that this woman was mostly using him.

“If only I knew the plot clearly.”

If Chen Luo knew the plot, he wouldn’t have to be so passive.

“System, how much does it cost to trade all the plots about Ye Chen?” Chen Luo asked in his mind to the system.

[Ding, answering the host, at least 500 billion]

“Did I hear that right?” Chen Luo almost slammed his foot on the accelerator in shock when he heard this answer. This was too expensive.

[The host should understand how many business opportunities lies in this. 500 billion is only a normal equivalent transaction, and it even makes money from the host’s perspective].

Taking a deep breath, Chen Luo knew that this seemingly outrageous price was actually quite conscientious.

Knowing the plot, not only did he have an advantage against the protagonist, but he could also use the information he knew in advance to make money.

It might be a little difficult to make money back using plot information known in advance, but it wasn’t impossible.

500 billion, not to mention Chen Luo, even the richest man in Magic City, can’t get that much money, not to mention with that much money. Chen Luo can even push across the past by improving his strength. Why would he need to know any plot?

Soon, Chen Luo drove to the Magic City Shooting Club.

“This is the largest shooting club in Magic City, except for heavy machine guns and anti-material sniper rifles, all other firearms can be found here.”

Zhao Yingxuan introduced to Chen Luo.

“Then the owner here has a deep background, right?”

This shooting club covered an area close to a thousand acres, and the value of a piece of land that big in Magic City would be hard to estimate.

Also, without a background check, the shooting club’s documents would not be approved, not to mention getting so many guns.

“The background of the owner of this shooting club is mysterious, I haven’t seen it either.”

After choosing the guns, Chen Luo and Zhao Yingxuan went to the shooting range.

“Are you sure you don’t need me to get you a coach?”

“No, I’m very talented in this area, I used to use a slingshot to shoot birds when I was a kid.”

Listening to Chen Luo’s words, Zhao Yingxuan felt speechless. Could a slingshot be the same as a gun?

Putting on his noise-canceling headphones, Chen Luo skillfully loaded his bullets.

“How come you are so skilled, you haven’t been here before, have you?” Zhao Yingxuan asked as she turned towards Chen Luo.

“I’ve just studied more on this area.”

Bang~!

A shot hit the target, six rings, not a good score, but for a novice not off target was considered a good score.

Of course, Chen Luo’s six-ring shot was intentional. Otherwise, with his master-level marksmanship, he would definitely have shot ten rings.

In terms of marksmanship, Chen Luo would definitely not be weaker than Ye Chen, the protagonist of King of Mercenaries.

“Not bad? I’m a bit convinced of your talent now.”

Zhao Yingxuan looked at Chen Luo in surprise.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Luo’s progress speed made Zhao Yingxuan look at him with open eyes, after only less than half an hour. Chen Luo seemed like a marksman. His shots were all ten rings.

“This is easy.”

Chen Luo directly put the gun down.

“Do you want to try a moving target?”

Zhao Yingxuan suggested, she was also very surprised in her heart, not expecting Chen Luo to be even better than she had imagined.

Originally, she was not looking for Chen Luo to be a bodyguard, but now Zhao Yingxuan felt that Chen Luo could adapt to this role.

In the next moving target, Chen Luo showed Zhao Yingxuan what it meant to be a sharpshooter.

“You’re so strong~!”

Chen Luo looked at Zhao Yingxuan with an odd expression, always felt that she had a hidden meaning when she speaks at times like this.

If you’re so good at driving, why don’t you become a driver?

“It’s time to go back, accompany me to meet someone tomorrow, I’ll be relying on you for protection when the time comes.”

Zhao Yingxuan put the gun down, then moved her arm, which was a little sore.

Even though the recoil of the handgun she was using was not too great, her arm was still inevitably sore.

Chen Luo was not affected in any way, the recoil of such a small gun was nothing to him, even if he brought the hand cannon over, Chen Luo was not worried about the recoil.

Driving back to the villa with Zhao Yingxuan, Zhao Yingxuan directly took out a gun and handed it to Chen Luo.

“Take it for self-defence.”

“Glock 19, no wonder I was told to use a Glock all the time during the target shooting today.”

But Zhao Yingxuan directly taking out a gun for him was something Chen Luo hadn’t expected.

‘Is it because of the person we’re meeting tomorrow?’

Chen Luo guessed in his mind, but he didn’t ask any more questions, playing the role of a good bodyguard. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Your duty as a bodyguard is only to protect your employer.

“To be honest, I don’t like this kind of compact gun.”

Glock 19 9mm pistol, the biggest advantage of this pistol is its small size, light weight and easy to carry.

It was convenient to carry on his person and easier to conceal, which was much better than the two Desert Eagle he had traded with the system. but to use it, Chen Luo still preferred the Desert Eagle.

“Being small has its advantages, although I like the BIG ones too, but conditions don’t allow it.”

Zhao Yingxuan said as if she was complaining.

Chen Luo glanced at Zhao Yingxuan, suspecting that she was doing it again.

After putting the gun away and having dinner, Chen Luo went to rest, having experienced quite a lot in just one day.

Early the next morning, Chen Luo got up and went to the villa courtyard to exercise and become skilled in fighting techniques.

It would have been nice to have someone to be a sparring partner for Chen Luo.

“You’re up so early, exercising early in the morning? Mind if I join you?”

Hearing the voice coming from behind him, Chen Luo glanced back and his breath hitched.

She really didn’t treat me as an outsider. She came out directly in her pajamas, and it was the kind with relatively little fabric, she was really saving fabric.

The eyes moved down Zhao Yingxuan’s delicate face. Hell, Xiao Qingxue couldn’t compare to this woman, Zhao Yingxuan, in a certain aspect, right?

‘Mrs. Zhao really doesn’t treat me like an outsider.’

Chen Luo was of a bloodthirsty age, to be honest, if he wasn’t a more sensible and conscious person, he might not have been able to stop it, Chen Luo himself admired himself.

“I haven’t been treating you as an outsider since the beginning.”

Zhao Yingxuan walked over towards Chen Luo with a light twist.

“Also, remember not to call me Mrs. Zhao in the future, it’s too formal.”

Chen Luo treated Zhao Yingxuan’s words as if he hadn’t heard them and went straight in to take a cool shower, otherwise he was afraid that he would spontaneously combust.

This woman was tempting him more and more, and if this continued, he was afraid that he really couldn’t resist it any longer.

    I just thought of a few questions. If he printed money would the system accept it? Also how does the system define ownership of something like if I just claimed that the moon or saturn was mine could I exchange it? Or is it only things that are legally yours? But if that's the case why could he exchange stolen items?

      System has intelligence so it can judge.
      Although stolen things belonged to someone, they become his thanks to his 'effort' to steal.
      We earn money doing jobs, this is also an 'effort'.
      The system judges if a certain item belongs to you according to your actions (Regardless if they are leaning towards good or evil). At least, that's what I believe.

    Just saying he has learned it bevor would literally have been more believable. She didn't belive his background the moment he took out the recapie anyway.

      The recipe can be explained by him, saying something akin to finding it in some abandoned building while he was playing as a kid.
      However..., what will he say regarding guns and knowledge how to use them?
      If it was a country like USA where every family has a dozen of weapons in their houses, it's not a problem.
      However, that 'Daxia' should have similar laws to china, which normally means, it's forbidden to possess firearms. They are already 'outlaws' as he was given a weapon by that milf. Still, there are many unknowns about the world... and the city is called 'Magic City' so...., maybe we'll even see magic? Thus knowing how to use weapons isn't anything special? Do monsters exist out of the city? I hope our MC won't dress in a magical girl outfit to hunt down the protagonist.

          Too many suspicious points will destroy whatever relationship is being built between them. The milf is a good background and support. It's not worth losing her over something so small that could be covered by a simple white lie instead of going out of his way to construct a past that don't exist. It was mentioned already that she investigated his past and if he's at least a bit smart, he should already know it.

            yea defiantly more trustworthy than a lie that she instantly uncovers because it is complete obvious. She ultimately won't care except for him being mysteriös and powerful whick is a plus for their relationship and nothing else. on the other hand lying makes him look like an idiot and deceiving.
