Chapter 103

The bearded regiment leader, accompanied by the regiment's sole female mercenary,

walked straight toward the abandoned village at the foot of the sand dune.

Over an hour later.

A dilapidated pickup truck returned to the hill.

The bearded man and Nia hopped out in high spirits.

"Haha! Regiment Leader! We had good luck this time!"

"We got a lot of good equipment!"

Amidst the cheers,

the bearded man pulled back the canvas at the rear of the pickup truck,

revealing a mountain of weapons and ammunition inside.

Seeing the weapons and supplies they had bought,

Lu Shu's face also broke into a happy smile.

He stood up from the ground, lightly clapped his hands, and said with a laugh,

"Alright, dear members of the regiment."

"Pick whatever you like."

The moment his words fell,

the members excitedly ran to the pickup truck

and began swapping out their own equipment.

"Hoo-hoo! Seeing these lovely fellows makes me so happy!"

"Great, we even have rocket launchers!"

"Finally getting new gear!"

"Regiment Leader, can I use the Big Pineapple?"

"Just now, watching you use it was so cool!"

After all the members had finished swapping their equipment,

Lu Shu finally walked over to select weapons and gear for himself.

This mission would involve mostly overland travel,

with close-quarters assault combat occurring very rarely.

So he prepared to choose a set of long-range output weapons.

This would ensure the smooth completion of the mercenary mission,

while also protecting the regiment members.

After a casual glance through the pile,

Lu Shu quickly found a weapon he liked.

"Sako TRG-42?"

"Mm-hmm, not bad."

Held in his hand

was a professional sniper rifle with a sand-colored exterior coating,

hailed as the most accurate sniper rifle in the world.

Effective range 1500 meters, maximum range 2000 meters.

It was basically the same tier as the AWM he had used last time.

Although the price of this sniper rifle was very high,

as long as casualties were minimized,

and the mercenary mission was completed,

then no matter how the final commission was calculated, it would not be a loss.

"The Regiment Leader has always been generous when it comes to weapon expenses!"

"He provides us with all the weapons we like."

The bearded man, who had already equipped himself with a Big Pineapple on the side,

said somewhat proudly,

and then winked at Su Mu.

"If every warrior of your Dragon Country,"

"were as powerful as the Regiment Leader,"

"then your Dragon Country would absolutely be the most powerful nation in the world!"

Su Mu was momentarily unable to respond to those words.

Her gaze turned toward Lu Shu,

and she discovered that after Lu Shu picked up that handsome sniper rifle,

he had also selected a set of combat clothing,

and then stuffed some equipment onto his person at random.

After everything was fully organized,

Su Mu's eyes froze in surprise,

because the Lu Shu in front of her, now fully geared up,

had completely transformed into a different person!

The lower half was clad in camouflage combat trousers and tactical boots.

A multi-functional tactical belt encircled his waist,

from which hung a pistol and other weapons.

Over the upper body was a camouflage bulletproof vest,

layered over a black special operations long-sleeve suit,

black gloves, and a combat headset hanging around his neck.

There was no helmet,

so one could still see that plain face wearing a casual expression.

The whole figure appeared capable and hard,

yet somehow possessed an air of casualness.

At this moment, Su Mu had only one thought in her heart:

This is...

Too handsome!

And seeing Lu Shu after he changed into his gear,

the netizens were directly stunned.

"Damn, is this my Brother Lu???"

"This is way too unfairly handsome!!!"

"Hiss... how to put it? This gear paired with this aura..."

"A strangely handsome look that makes one feel very comfortable!!"

"Ma De! I'm so envious that Lu Shen can be this handsome!"

"Wow!!! Brother Lu, you're going too far!"

"You sneaking off to work part-time as a mercenary behind our classmates' backs is one thing, but making it look this handsome is another!"

"How are we supposed to live..."

Seeing Lu Shu's appearance after changing into his new gear,

the netizens were truly thoroughly shocked.

Now, wearing his combat suit,

paired with that aura of his,

and the current war-torn backdrop,
