章 130: Chapter 131: Klein's New Weapon and Negative Characteristics
"In auxiliary mode, the Devil pistol fires special bullets that do not harm people. These bullets significantly enhance the body of the person hit, granting them great strength and speed," Lynn explained, controlling the divine avatar.
"With this enhancement, even an ordinary person can temporarily gain a physique comparable to a Sequence 6 Devil. Additionally, it grants immunity to most toxins and improves physical defense."
"However, this enhancement only lasts about half an hour. Afterward, the enhanced person will experience a period of weakness that can last from a few hours to several days. If you know any excellent pharmacists, it's best to drink some potions during this time to help you recover faster."
Hearing this, Klein's eyes lit up. Physical strength had always been a significant weakness for him. As a Seer, his pathway was notably weak in this aspect. His vitality was fragile, and his strength couldn't compare to that of pathways like Hunter.
The enhancement mode of the Devil pistol could partially mitigate these weaknesses.
Lynn glanced at Klein and continued, "The auxiliary mode's function is that simple. As for the combat mode, the Devil pistol has three sub-modes. In the first sub-mode, the pistol can fire bullets with negative effects like poison, high temperature, or fire."
"But these bullets are still just regular bullets with special effects. I call this the normal mode. In this mode, the bullets' spiritual consumption is low, making it suitable for fighting ordinary enemies."
"In the second sub-mode, the pistol's bullets transform into flame and spell attacks, like sulfur fireballs, fire cages, and poisonous steam, which Devils might use. You can release these spells using the pistol as a medium. I call this spell mode. It consumes more spirituality than the first mode," Lynn continued. "I recommend using it when facing strong enemies."
"The third sub-mode, which I call death mode, fires bullets that can instantly kill the target—provided the target's sequence isn't strong enough to withstand the 'death' magic of a Sequence 6 Devil. This mode is effective against mid to low-sequence enemies," Lynn paused, adding,
"However, death mode can only be activated once a day and can only generate one death bullet per activation. If you miss, the bullet won't take effect."
"I understand. Thank you for the reminder." Klein nodded, no longer regretting the money he spent on the pistol—well, maybe just a little.
But Klein truly felt his money was well spent. Among the mystical items he knew, none could compare to this Devil pistol.
A typical Sequence 6 mystical item with abilities similar to the auxiliary mode and without significant negative effects would already be considered excellent.
The Devil pistol, however, boasted multiple modes. Based on Klein's understanding of Devil abilities from the church, the Devil pistol encompassed almost all significant abilities of a Sequence 6 Devil, except for the Devil's danger intuition.
Klein hadn't forgotten the most critical question and asked, "What are the negative effects of this Devil pistol?"
"The negative effects..." Lynn, controlling the divine avatar, smiled elegantly and said unhurriedly, "This pistol possesses the characteristics of being alive. As a price for using it, you need to tell it a story every night, with you as the main character. Whether the story is true or made up, it doesn't matter, as long as you are the protagonist."
"Additionally, you must have an audience besides yourself and the pistol while telling the story. This is its only negative effect." Lynn sipped his coffee before continuing,
"That's the basic situation. You can explore more details yourself. Do you have any other questions?"
"Do I need to use my real name in these stories?" Klein hesitated but asked.
Honestly, this negative effect was beyond Klein's expectations. While it wasn't significant, telling stories with himself as the protagonist was somewhat embarrassing.
However, this negative effect was indeed minimal. Combined with the Devil pistol's abilities, the money spent was truly worth it... Klein thought, recalling a poet friend seeking Beyonder items.
Unfortunately, the poet friend didn't have suitable Beyonder characteristics; otherwise, he could ask Mr. Fool for help in crafting a mystical item.
"You don't need to use your real name, but you must use a name you recognize..." Lynn, controlling the divine avatar, replied leisurely. "For example, a pseudonym you've used for a long time would work."
Lynn's real body looked at Klein with a meaningful expression, almost saying, "So you used a pseudonym."
'So, I can use the name Sherlock for the stories... Uh, Lynn, what's with that look? Isn't using a pseudonym common these days?' Klein, feeling guilty, avoided Lynn's gaze and asked, "Does the protagonist need to have my traits, or is just a name enough?"
"The protagonist should resemble you and have some of your characteristics. Otherwise, the pistol might sulk and refuse to work..." Lynn pointed to the Devil pistol in front of Klein and continued:
"But don't worry, it's not a master-killing pistol. If you don't meet its needs, it will only become unusable and won't harm you."
"Of course, if you accidentally shoot yourself in combat mode, that's a different story. It doesn't have a feature to protect its holder from harm."
Normal people wouldn't make such a mistake... Klein internally retorted but noted this down, deciding to be careful in future battles to avoid such a mishap.
Afterward, Klein asked more questions about the Devil pistol, and Lynn patiently answered each one. Once all Klein's doubts were resolved, Lynn, controlling the divine avatar, took his leave.
