Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 1317 - 52: This Weapon Works Like a Charm
"We can't... we can't afford it."
The Strongman Captain said with a sullen face, realizing they had hit a wall.
The military surplus firearms they had were already top-tier in the civilian sector, but those intimidating armed robots and the gigantic nine-barreled Vulcan Cannon... How could they possibly afford them!
Even if they could afford them, they couldn't sustain their use!
Nine thousand rounds a minute, who besides the military and the super-rich would dare to play with such consumption without restraint?
Their group was really blind, running into an arms dealer.
Everyone knew that the assassin groups and arms dealers roaming the interstellar space were not to be messed with lightly.
Faced with so many Vulcan Cannons, who knew what else might appear?
It wouldn't be surprising if a row of mecha suddenly showed up.
After all, selling weapons was what arms dealers did!
Being a small mercenary team, not even third-rate on Grey Forest Star... They really wanted to give themselves a slap!
Slap!
Immediately, a fellow teammate slapped himself hard, with a fawning smile on his face, laughed wryly, "So it's the arms dealer, sir. Your weapons are so advanced, they must be very expensive. We're not even worthy to shine your shoes, let alone afford these weapons. We apologize for bumping into you today!"
Slap!
Slap!
A series of slaps followed, unabashedly.
Every slap left a visible handprint on their faces.
The Strongman Captain was stunned by his companion's straightforward attitude, inwardly cursing; this was surely selling them out...
Damn!
In an instant, the Strongman Captain gave his own face two hard slaps, swelling up like a pig's head.
He mumbled, "Forgive us, sir, just spare us."
Mu Fan sighed, turned his head to glance at the armed robot on his right, grabbed the Fire God Cannon, and lifted it with ease.
Under Black's control, the robot attached the ammunition box to Mu Fan's back.
Mu Fan then casually walked over to them, twirling his hand in front of their bulging eyes.
"This weapon works really well, take a look."
Pointing the cannon at a giant rock about four meters high, Mu Fan pressed the trigger with his right thumb.
Hum...
Rat-a-tat!
In an instant, the flying shell casings formed a heatwave that scorched their faces.
Boom!
In their terrified eyes, the rock was blasted apart in just two seconds.
Even more frightening, the young man in sunglasses and a trench coat controlled it single-handedly, standing entirely still!
Is he even human?
"So, how about buying one?"
Mu Fan patted the man's shoulder, asking with a smile.
Trembling, the Strongman Captain swallowed hard.
"We really don't have... we... we'll buy it!"
...
Five minutes later, Mu Fan drove an armored SUV made by Shadow Island down the mountain.
The mercenary team named Brotherhood walked away, clutching a complete Fire God Cannon and forty thousand rounds, profusely thanking them.
Meanwhile, Mu Fan now had a card worth 1.2 million Star Coins in his palm.
The standard price for a six-barreled Gatling Machine Gun was around 600,000; in the black market, at least 800,000.
The nine-barreled Vulcan Cannon is military-grade, with a black-market price of no less than 1.5 million! Adding in those forty thousand rounds, it wouldn't be less than 2 million.
So, when the Brotherhood's strongmen heard this set was only 1.2 million, they were utterly shaken.
It was like God had favored them!
The firepower was incomparable to a regular Vulcan Cannon.
And they got it for half the price...
As they left, they felt like they were dreaming, their feet floating.
Echoing in their ears was Mu Fan's friendly voice: "Black Fire Company products are guaranteed premium! This is our company's basic Dark series weapon. If you find it useful, please spread the word, and we'll offer you a discount. There are more advanced Night series and top-tier Black series. Whatever you imagine, and even what you can't, we have it all. Welcome to discuss further."
The Brotherhood's captain clutched a finely made, unidentified metal business card tightly.
The large words Black Fire Weapons Company were clearly printed on it.
...
"Arms dealing really is hugely profitable," Mu Fan said, holding the anonymous card issued by Hinchlo Commercial Bank.
1.2 million Star Coins, just like that, as light as a feather.
"Black, the cost is less than 100,000?"
"Yes, less. With Shadow Island's industrial level, the cost is roughly 8,500 Star Coins," Black replied promptly.
But then Black hesitated a bit, "Actually, we didn't pay for those minerals; they were a batch of free minerals given by Loki Heavy Industry. If you calculate like that, the cost is zero."
Mu Fan: "..."
Indeed, less than 100,000.
Collecting his thoughts, Mu Fan's eyes lit up instantly; arms dealing was this profitable, he just needed to release a batch of low-grade Dark series products on Grey Forest Star at half price, and the reputation of Black Fire Weapons Company would quickly open up.
Once the reputation is established, it will be easier to negotiate with a few representative large mercenary groups. Once negotiations succeed, Black would handle the rest.
In terms of mathematical calculations, Black far surpassed him countless times.
So now, he needed to gather intelligence on Grey Forest Star.
Mu Fan squinted into the sky smeared with sunset hues, thinking that the headquarters of the Blood Teeth Team was also here...
Since he was here, he might as well solve that too.
His left hand ran over the fine metal Kirin Armor under the sleeve of his right arm...
Thunderhawk, ready at any time.
The armored SUV quickly entered the streets of Sinless City and vanished into the crowd of traffic.
...
In a dual-rotor aircraft in the sky, Ye Mei crossed her fair long legs, retracting her gaze from the light screen, eyes full of contemplation.
"Dealing in arms?"
"With the Thunderhawk, is that truly all about selling arms on Grey Forest Star?"
"What force is behind you?"
A slightly raspy voice with a hint of allure sounded.
The corners of Ye Mei's mouth curled up slightly, "No matter what, we'll meet face to face eventually. I'm getting more and more interested."
"The owner of Ghost God Asura, the controller of Thunderhawk, what kind of person are you?"
Ye Mei looked down at her hands, covered in writhing pale green liquid.
Ye Mei closed her eyes, placing her hands over her face.
Moments later, she lowered her hands, revealing a face brimming with youthful, innocent charm.
Looking like a naive young lady.
"Is this the style you like? Hehe."
A clear, pleasant laugh echoed, entirely different from Ye Mei's previous voice, and if anyone were nearby, they'd even notice the fragrance had changed!
From the seductive scent of Mandala to a delicate fragrance like jasmine.
In a thousand forms, she was once the disguise teaching of the Imperial Eagle Eye! This was the true Solomon Phantom!
"Let's see... hmm, the Bloody Mary Bar. If I go like this, I'll probably get targeted by traffickers... Hehe."
Covering her mouth with a light giggle, Ye Mei got up, leaned to the driver's ear, and with a gentle fragrance, whispered, "Please drop me off at Bloody Mary."
The pilot shivered, not daring to turn around, nodding vigorously.
The dual-rotor aircraft quickly changed direction, heading towards the center of Sinless City.
...
Mu Fan pushed open the swinging oak doors, and a wave of chaotic noise hit his eardrums. He took off his sunglasses and calmly surveyed his surroundings.
Dozens of eyes turned towards him all at once.
