Astral Flower-Chapter 117: Second Stage of the Competition (2)

How do you remember other people so that you can recognize them easily?

Normal people’s answer would be to look at their face closely.

Because everyone’s face would be different and had distinct features that would allow them to recognize each other. Not to mention, humans were already trained to recognize humans’ face ever since they were babies naturally.

But if this question was asked to Nan Hua, her answer would be their body proportion along with their face.

Because even with the advancement of technology, completely changing one’s body structure would be very difficult. They could add more layer of clothes and then some other additional that would hide them, but if they have to become skinner or smaller, then it would be difficult.

Illusion device or something like that could be used, but people with high mental strength would not be fooled.

In the Virtual World, they were basically connected to each other with their mental strength. So it was even harder to use these kind of devices in front of people who were strong.

"We can still bring three weapons like before, but it’ll be a bit more difficult than before." Long Shi Yu was familiar with the rules because he participated in several competitions before. "Our task is to blend in the crowd. If you see someone walking around while carrying weapon, it’s estimated that everyone will try to get away as fast as possible."

The others nodded.

If there was someone who carried a large sword on the street, it was estimated that everyone would steer away from him.

This was because they felt that he was very dangerous and thus didn’t want to get close to them at all. If they got hurt just because they were a bit close, who would they blame?

"We have to pick weapons that can be folded or pick a relatively small weapon," Long Shi Yu said. "Fortunately, there’s no metal check, so we can still bring our guns into the cities."

If it was the real world... it was estimated that everyone would be checked severely to make sure there was no dangerous weapons around.

After all, who would want to take responsible should there be problems?

No one wanted any incident to happen.

Long Qian Xing nodded but he still picked the same three weapons as before. A sword, a gun, and also a knife.

Looking at Long Qian Xing’s quick selection, Long Shi Yu was stunned. "How are you going to bring your sword along?"

Long Qian Xing glanced at Long Shi Yu as if he was seeing a stupid person. He pulled the two buttons at the side of the sword handle and the sword retracted and turned into an ordinary small box.

This was his special weapon that he asked his family to make.

Because he liked to use swords, he thought of using this way to make sure that he could carry weapon anywhere. In the Virtual World, he also paid to design the same weapon in order to be able to carry it everywhere.

Those who knew him personally will definitely know of this special weapon of his.

Long Shi Yu was stunned. "You’re really going to use this weapon? Are you going to kill everyone?"

He felt that Long Qian Xing’s action was overkill. With such a weapon in his hand, it was estimated that Long Qian Xing would be able to kill his enemies easily covertly with just extending the sword.

"No, I just feel that it’s very convenient." Long Qian Xing tucked his gun on his belt and the knife went to his sleeve. This way, it was perfectly covered and couldn’t be seen at all.

Nan Hua watched Long Qian Xing’s movement and blinked her eyes. Special and customized weapons were indeed the most troublesome to deal with. It was because these weapons were hard to deal with.

She looked at the selection and picked a handgun along with two different knives. One knife was a normal one edged knife while the other one was a small butterfly knife that was easy to use.

"Those two are smalls, but are you sure that you won’t ask for more ammunition instead?" Long Shi Yu’s lips twitched. He himself had two guns and an additional ammunition so that he would not run out of bullets when he was attacked.

"It’s fine." Nan Hua blinked her eyes.

The rules in her world before was that everything could be made into weapon. Guns were not used very often because it would attract attention and Nan Hua had no intention to use guns so often.

After all, sneaking a gun to a civilized area was not very easy.

The weapons she used the most was either knives or needles. It was mostly because needles were small and easy to hide, but she hadn’t been able to use it in the military because it was very eye catching.

Knives were better.

There were just various shapes of the knife and Nan Hua picked two different type of knives in order to utilize their uses in different situation.

As for sword, mace, or whatever others...

She was not used to use them.

Besides, she was not trained to become a mecha operator like these soldiers, so she didn’t pay much attention to these weapons before. What she used was naturally the weapon that she could use immediately at the fastest speed.

"Okay, have you finished your selection?" Long Shi Yu turned to look at Tian Lou and Tou Lu Pian.

Tian Lou grinned and showed the two guns along with the whip.

He had painfully learned his lesson of not carrying a gun. Anyway, he couldn’t carry those big shield and sword in the crowd. Even if his gun handling skills were not very good, they were better.

Tou Lu Pian also had two guns and a medical kit. It was clear that even at this time, he will not abandon his previous career as medical doctor.

But Nan Hua seriously doubt his skills.

He never even had the chance to show it properly all these times.

It felt a bit pitiful too.
