Chapter 63: Razor

Having made up his mind to ask Danika about those bugs when he got the chance, Li Ang lowered his head and began carving a 【Concealment】 formation onto the firearm on the table.

Soon, a handgun with a crude formation drawn on its side appeared before his eyes.

However, after Li Ang picked up the handgun and channeled energy into it, he fell silent: "."

It worked, but unfortunately what was concealed was the gun body, not the bullets.

He looked at the somewhat blurry gun body in his hand and couldn't help comforting himself in his heart:

'No matter how you look at it, it's still a youth version of the Wind King Barrier. Once I have a melee weapon in the future, it should still come in handy.'

Still, it wasn't without a solution — that would be to inscribe an alchemical formation on the bullets.

But handling something as small as a bullet would be very troublesome; the slightest slip and it would fail.

After tinkering for over an hour, he had finally finished inscribing all the bullets in one magazine.

【Performed basic alchemical work, profession experience +51】.

At this rate, the profession level of 【Apprentice Craftsman (Alchemy)】 would soon be raised.

However, Li Ang's energy was limited. With more and more professions now, the time allocated to each one was limited, and he had to make trade-offs.

'If only I knew Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu.'

'Then I could grind several professions at the same time.'

Carrying a hint of envy, Li Ang closed his eyes and began tonight's homework.

【Circulate qi, profession experience +4】.

【Manipulate the qi within the body, skill experience +1】.

Two days passed.

During this time, Li Ang did not reveal that he had already learned alchemy — when it was time to keep a low profile, it was better to keep a low profile.

Besides practicing alchemy, he would occasionally spar with Danika. Unfortunately, after the level of Reverse Birth: Three Layers reached 【Proficiency】, the effect wasn't as good as before, but it could still provide some experience.

Evening, Security Bureau.

"Finally off work," Danika sat at her workstation and stretched, saying with some relief, "Li Ang, the bonus from before has been issued today."

"Want to go grab a drink?"

The bonus for the previous capture of Higgins had already been deposited into the personal accounts of Danika's squad members. Those who contributed more, like Li Ang and Danika, received thirty thousand Stellar Radiance coins, while the rest received fifteen thousand.

And thirty thousand Stellar Radiance coins was already ten months' salary for an ordinary Security Bureau operative. Li Ang now understood why Danika kept going to work despite all the pain.

Before he could speak, Danika shook her head: "Forget it, just thinking about it is tiring. Let's just make do at home."

"." Li Ang glanced at the tall woman as she stood up unsteadily, and couldn't help complaining, "Captain, you're this tired every day — going out to rob houses at night?"

Hearing her say that, Danika replied without looking back: "Not to mention the money in personal accounts can't be stolen, most people in the city aren't as rich as me."

Hearing her say that, Li Ang thought about it and realized it was indeed the case. The standard of living on the colonial planet wasn't that high to begin with, and the base salary of a Security Bureau operative was already considered upper-middle level, let alone the fact that his captain didn't seem to have any hobbies in daily life.

Speaking of which, besides going to work and staying home every day, Danika's figure showed no signs of going out of shape at all.

After giving Danika a thousand Stellar Radiance coins, Li Ang didn't know how to arrange the remaining bonus for the moment.

He did want to buy a car, but the problem was he didn't have a federal driver's license, and as a Security Bureau operative, he didn't have the time to take the test either.

And if he wanted to purchase profession information, he was still far short, unless Li Ang could find a cheaper route.

Just as he was thinking about how to spend this money, Kohl had already driven him back to the dormitory.

"Brother, we're here," Kohl in the driver's seat turned his head and said.

Li Ang immediately came back to his senses: "Sorry for the trouble, Kohl, having you drive me back all this time."
