Kapitel 720: 720 Entryway Clear

Max moved back behind a structural pillar while Nico rolled right and behind the desk to evade the first barrage of Ion Rifle fire. 

"Hey, are those human-made rifles? I recognize that energy pattern." Max called over to his partner. 

"Give me a second. I think they are." She replied, then stood up enough to let her shoulder-mounted weapons blast a pair of attackers and draw another round of fire in her direction. 

"They are human-made. But obsolete. I'm not sure where they got them, but they are a Cygnus pattern rifle that has been outdated by nearly a thousand years. Not even the Black Wind Territory would use a rifle design that old anymore. 

They're still deadly, but twenty percent lower output than the modern design, and they were known for malfunctions when damaged."
