I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield Chapter 790 - 551: Dark Moon, Soul Cutter (Part 2)
Previously on I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield...
Qin Tian actually wants to "steal" two famous guns right in front of him, simply wishful thinking.
Swish swish
The two famous guns were taken out from Leng Qianjun’s space equipment
On the left is a standard sniper rifle, entirely deep black, made of matte dark steel, with no extra embellishments, only a thin shallow crescent pattern engraved at the base of the barrel, which is its only identifier. The overall lines are sleek, fully displaying the stealth and precision of a sniper rifle, with a faint cold aura surrounding it.
On the right is an overly large handgun, almost twice the size of a normal one, carved entirely from black and purple crystal, which exudes a muted dark glow within. When light is refracted, purple patterns flow across the gun body as if a ghostly fire burns within.
Qin Tian stared at the two guns, the names surfaced in his mind
Dark Moon
Soul Cutter
Dark Moon is the sniper rifle, similar in role to the Shadowstrike in his hand, with overlapping features: stealthy, silent, ultra-long-range, high explosive power, high penetration.
While the other famous gun, Soul Cutter, is the only non-metal structure among the Ten Great Guns, with no physical bullets but directly attacking the soul as a soul gun.
"Please~"
Leng Qianjun made a gesture, smiling at the corners of his mouth.
Please start your performance
Qin Tian looked at Leng Qianjun, who had a confident posture and couldn’t help but smile.
Before meeting, he had Robert gather information about Leng Qianjun.
Leng Qianjun is a direct lineage of the Leng family, one of the Nine Great Holy Blood Clans, with outstanding talent, but what outsiders talk about more is his obsession with firearms.
Since childhood, Leng Qianjun showed an absolute talent for guns, surpassing the gun kings in the army at a young age.
Afterward, he collected a large number of rune firearms and often applied these firearms in combat. Once in power, he spent a huge cost to get two of the Ten Great Guns and treated them as treasures.
However, as his strength improved, the influence of firearms on battle was far inferior to his extreme cold bloodline, making their role somewhat redundant.
So after he advanced to Tier Seven, he seldom used firearms.
Based on this information, Qin Tian inferred that Leng Qianjun’s talent in gunmanship, even if not on par with his purple talent of "Soul of the Gun God," would not differ too much.
Relying solely on the talent "Soul of the Gun God," it is hard to directly make these two famous guns, companions of Leng Qianjun for years, "betray," so he chose to use his ace.
"Brother Leng, then I’ll start."
Qin Tian said with a gentle smile.
Leng Qianjun raised his hand in a "please" gesture, smiling at the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of playful anticipation like waiting for a joke.
"Brother, is it really okay?"
Just then, Leng Xiaoyu quietly approached, and her crisp voice echoed in his mind, carrying a hint of uncertain inquiry.
"Of course."
Leng Qianjun glanced at her, this girl actually didn’t trust him.
If it was an actual fight with Qin Tian, perhaps he wouldn’t be totally confident.
After all, Qin Tian once killed Shengongsi Yuzuo, whose strength was no weaker than his.
But when it comes to playing with guns, in the whole Empire, he has never been bested by anyone!
What’s more, Qin Tian even dared to try and "steal" his treasured guns right in front of him.
If this works, then his surname "Leng" should be spelled backward...
Buzz~
A brilliant golden light suddenly burst from Qin Tian, rushing toward the two famous guns like a tide, enveloping them entirely.
In an instant, both Dark Moon and Soul Cutter trembled excitedly, with the gun bodies buzzing, the crescent of Dark Moon glowing with a dim green light, while the black-purple crystal of Soul Cutter shimmered with silver sparkles.
Immediately, two streams of light broke free from the platform’s restraint, flying toward Qin Tian as if they had eyes!
Pa!
Qin Tian reached out and grasped the two famous guns firmly in the palm of his hand, his fingers gently stroking the cold barrel of Dark Moon, then touching the warm crystal lines of Soul Cutter, a smile forming on his lips.
"Brother Leng, it seems your beloved guns like me more~"
The smile on Leng Qianjun’s face instantly froze, his pupils constricting sharply, staring at the two guns in Qin Tian’s hands as if he had seen a ghost, he was stunned in place.
"You... you guys..."
He couldn’t believe that the guns he had carefully cherished for years, in just the blink of an eye, would throw themselves into another’s arms.
This scene of being NTR’d right before his eyes, made him so angry his body was trembling.
Why!
Why!
The extreme cold bloodline activated uncontrollably
In an instant, the room’s temperature plummeted, an invisible chill swept around, layers of frost forming on the window frames, while fine snowflakes appeared out of nowhere, drifting down slowly from mid-air.
Leng Qianjun stood amidst the swirling snow, his eyes filled with shock, confusion, and a deep sense of humiliation, which imparted a somewhat indescribable air of grievance and desolation.
Uh
A reaction this intense?
Qin Tian’s lips twitched, yet on second thought, if his carefully nurtured Kazik, Jie La, were to defect right in front of him, he would surely be furious enough to vomit blood.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Leng Xiaoyu gently patted Leng Qianjun’s shoulder, feeling amused yet also quite sympathetic toward her brother.
Having known her brother for so many years, she had never seen Leng Qianjun look so pitiful.
"Brother, they’re just two guns, I can get someone to get you other Ten Great Guns some other day."
Leng Xiaoyu comforted, remembering how they saw a Ten Great Gun at Christie’s auction not long ago, but due to the high bidding price, someone else bought it.
But seeing her brother like this, she decided to have someone thoroughly investigate the buyer, and buy back that gun even if it means a high price.
Leng Qianjun didn’t respond to her, but instead, fixedly stared at the Dark Moon and Soul Cutter in Qin Tian’s hands, speaking hoarsely:
"Aren’t you two going to come out and see me?"
The two guns remained motionless, but Qin Tian could sense the emotions from the gun spirits, guilt and avoidance, just like a wife who betrayed her husband, not daring to meet her husband’s eyes when caught in the act.
Ah, spit, what am I thinking
I’m not a scumbag seducing married women
Seeing that the two famous guns had not responded for a while, Leng Qianjun’s chest rose and fell violently, and the grief and indignation in his heart were almost overflowing.
Why...
In what way had he failed them?
The room fell into a dead silence, with only the sound of snowflakes rustling down.
No one knows how long it took, but Leng Qianjun seemed to have been drained of all strength suddenly, his shoulders slumped powerlessly, heaving a long sigh filled with disappointment.
"Fine, Brother Qin, I agree to this trade."
He realized that the "betrayal" of the two famous guns was a foregone conclusion, irreversible.
Those who leave me today, the days of yesterday shall not be retained
In that case, it is better to embrace a new sweetheart
In fact, this trade doesn’t make him lose, but rather, it’s a significant gain
The Ten Great Guns are indeed precious, but the upper limit of these firearms is distinctly visible, impossible to surpass
At best, they can threaten Tier Seven Silver Bloodline experts, but beyond that, Golds and Holy Bloods will not even consider the Ten Great Guns.
But a famous blade with awakened knife spirit is different.
A famous blade can bear the full power of a Spiritualist and can also be paired with the explosive power of Spiritual Energy and Martial Techniques.
And the existence of the knife spirit can elevate combat capability to a whole new level.
Not only in Tier Eight, but even in higher levels, the Azure Nether Blade will not be obsoleted.
For him, Dark Moon and Soul Cutter hold more of a collectible value.
But the Azure Nether Blade is a true treasure to enhance his battle capabilities, it would be almost impossible to obtain with his resources and financial power in an auction.
From a value standpoint, he is undoubtedly the more profitable party
However, from an emotional standpoint, he... feels like crying
"Then thank you Brother Leng for your willingness to part with them."
Qin Tian smiled slightly, storing the two famous guns into the spirit space, then handed the Azure Nether Blade to Leng Qianjun.
Leng Qianjun took the knife with both hands, the grievance on his face faded away, replaced by love and anticipation for the new treasure.
Truly a good knife~
A good knife indeed, but to fully master this knife, gain the recognition of its knife spirit, and achieve unity with it requires a long period of practice
But he has great confidence in that
The knife is the most loyal weapon to humans, as for guns... phew, scumbags
Leng Qianjun suddenly realized he might not like guns as much anymore
When he gets back, he’ll just shove all the rune guns in his armory under the bed to gather dust
He thought viciously
