Modern Weapon Summoning System

Chapter 76 - Trap



Del parked his car in front of the guild building. The street of Alder was awfully quiet today, Cassandra didn't tell Del about this. Nevertheless, it was probably only his guts telling something wasn't right, or out of the ordinary. "Anna, do you want to come with me?" Del asked.

"Sure," Anna nodded as she followed him from behind.

Cole and Cassandra would be waiting near the car. It was not like there was someone that was going to steal the car anyway, but the car still contained all of their gold coins and all of their money. If someone stole it, it would be problematic.

Del entered the guild building. The receptionist was as friendly as usual. However, it seemed that the activity on that guild building was lesser than usual. Del approached that receptionist's table. He asked the guild secretary, "Excuse me, I'm here to give this ledger to the guild master."

"Ah, who are you?" The secretary asked.

"My name? I'm Del Moore," Del said.

"Ah, you're the usual person, hahaha, sorry, I'm new here, and who's that person beside you?" The secretary asked.

"She's a friend of mine from a place very far away," Del said.

"Ah, I see, well, you can follow me." The guild secretary left her desk. She walked upstairs.

Del and Anna followed her to the main office of the guild which was located on the second floor. He walked through the hallway of that guild building until he arrived in front of a large white wooden door with a nameplate on it. It was the room for the guild master.

The secretary opened the door, revealing a room full of bookshelves filled with books of unknown origin. There was also an empty desk in the middle of the room. There were also two chairs in that room, it looked like someone was planning to greet them indeed. Del and Anna entered that room.

"Please wait, the guild master will come soon," the secretary smiled and closed the door.

Del sat down on one of the chairs. It was comfy. The room was showing the status of the guild master. There was an armor stand with a full set of Mithril armor. Del was captivated by the amazing aura of the room that he forgot to notice his surrounding.

Suddenly, someone locked the door of the room. "Weird, why would they lock the door of the room? That's pretty rude," Del commented.

"Should we blow the door off?" Anna asked.

"No, don't do that yet," Del wasn't sure what was going on, but he was as sure as heck didn't like it.

Then, Del heard a bunch of carriages from outside. He wondered what happened. He immediately went for the window to peek at what was going on. The whole city was under lockdown in just a little amount of time. The car was also gone, who moved it? Cassandra and Cole were also gone. What the hell was going on?

There were also a bunch of footsteps coming from downstairs. Suddenly, an arrow flew straight through the window, only bouncing off from his helmet. "What the fuck?" Del ducked from the window as a barrage of arrows was flying to the window.

"Del, what should we do? Should we fight our way out?" Anna asked.

"Wait, there could be a bunch of A-rank adventurers out there," Del said.

"Damn, shit, what should we do then? We are as sure as hell won't be sitting ducks in here," Anna said.

"For now, barricade the door, that should stop the adventurer for a while, right now, we need to think," Del shouted.

A-rank adventurer was very strong. One of them could easily beat Del in a one-on-one battle. Heck, if they didn't think fast enough, the door would act as nothing other than a thin barrier between them and their death. Del needed to act as quickly as he could. There was an option to blow the floor beneath them, but they were on the fourth floor.

There was only one solution that would prove to be the cheapest, but the most effective as well. Any cheaper than that option and it would be very ineffective in their effort of getting out of there alive. Del opened his tablet.

Del pressed [Juggernaut Suit]. At the very least, they could get out of that building without destroying the guild building and risking a friendly fire on themselves. Anna probably could take cover right behind Del.

[Juggernaut Suit Has Been Delivered. Remaining Balance: 252,000$]

Two crates appeared right in front of him. Del opened one of the big crates and he was surprised on what the content. There was an M134 Minigun inside of that crate alongside the armor itself, and a storage backpack.

There was also an instruction on how to put the thing on. Del read that instruction quickly and followed the instruction. He put his Interceptor Body Armor inside of that backpack. Del put the pieces of armor one by one including replacing his helmet with the one included inside of that juggernaut suit.

"Del, what in the bloody fuck is that???" Anna was shocked to see the thick armor that Del wore.

Juggernaut suit was an EOD suit covered in thick armor platings. Probably, it should be able to stop a direct hit from explosive weaponry. His helmet was also made from a very durable material alongside a tank-grade bulletproof glass visor.

"This is a juggernaut armor. Anna, that M16 wouldn't do shit to any A-ranked adventurers, use this!" Del said as he gave Anna his M240 picked up the minigun and connected it to the ammo bag on his back.

"Ok, ok, I understand," Anna said as she looked at the machine gun that she held with her hands. "How to even operate this darn thing? Just pull the trigger and hope for the best?" Anna asked.

"Sort of, do you think we have to talk about that?" Del asked.

"I…" Before Anna managed to say any word, one of the adventurers had started broken through that wooden door. They fired everything that they had to that door. Even blowing that door off alongside the table that barricaded it.

Two adventurers appeared right in front of him. All of them were wearing heavy Mithril armor and holding a sword. The sword emitted some sort of otherworldly aura. The aura covered the sword in some sort of blue mist. "It's too bad that a newbie like you has some expensive price on your head, now, prepare to die!"

Del pushed the trigger of his minigun and a mist of bullet was fired at those two adventurers. The stream of bullets shredded their armor and their body in half, leaving their upper torso separated from their legs. "PUSHING THROUGH!" Del shouted as he kept pushing the trigger of his minigun.

"WHAT THE FUCK? [Energy Barrier]!" an adventurer shouted.

An energy field protected the adventurer, but not for long, the rate of fire of the M134 minigun shredded that shield quickly. The rate of fire on that minigun was maximized so it spitted six hundred rounds of 7.62 Bullets at the shield per second from the ammo backpack that seemed to be bottomless.

Archers were shooting their steel arrows to the armor that Del wore. The arrows simply bounced off and Del retaliated by continuing shooting his minigun. Anna watched his back and she fired her machine gun every once in a while if she saw an enemy. "God damn it, Eric wants both of us dead."

"This is Eric's doings? How???" Del asked.

"Hell, I don't know, this is only my assumption, but as far as I'm concerned, we're fucked," Anna commented.

Suddenly, a person appeared. That person was very tall, very buffed, and clad in heavy armor. He also held a very big sword. Del was probably only half of his height. "You little pest, and that traitor, you two should die now!"

Del pulled the trigger of his minigun, "Eat this!" Del shouted.

Another stream of bullets flew in that person's direction. That person also dropped dead to the ground once the stream of bullets split his body in half. Del walked in his direction with his heavy armor, "So, what do you think?" Del asked the person.

"Impossible… a mere C-rank…" The person died.

"Alright, let's proceed to the first floor," Del walked slowly to the staircase.

Del went downstairs to the first floor. The first thing that greeted him was an explosion that would almost certainly kill him if it was not for the juggernaut suit that he wore. The explosion also produced a flame trap that started burning the staircase.

"Damn it," Del pulled the trigger of his minigun and sprayed the whole room full of lead.

He made sure nobody stood up again after being shot by him. He continued shooting his minigun at anything that moved, even if it was only a slight movement from the dead bodies on the ground. Anna jumped through the fire pit and she landed immediately on the first floor.

"Alright, the whole floor should have been cleared, I think," Anna looked around the whole room.

"EVERYONE! FIRE!"

Suddenly, a bunch of explosions destroyed the entrance to the guild building, then followed by a bunch of fireballs that burned the floor of that guild building. "Anna, get down! Find somewhere to hide!"

"Sure." Anna crawled to the far corner of the guild building's first floor.

Del fired his minigun at that crowd, however, some of them were hiding behind the armored carriages that protected them from standard 7.62 rounds easily. "Damn it, where's Cole and Cassandra when you needed them?"

Suddenly, a chugging of a heavy machine gun could be heard from a distance. Cole was firing the heavy machine gun at the cowards that were hiding behind those armored carriages. The car headed in their direction and stopped right in front of the ruins of the guild entrance.

"Damn, what took you two so long?" Del lowered his minigun, "And how the hell Cassandra is driving?"

"You know, to see is to learn, so yeah," Cassandra shrugged.

Cassandra moved out of the driver's seat and she went to the backseat. Del entered the car driver's seat. Anna went to the front passenger's seat. After that, Del drove out of Alder without looking back. Cole kept shooting his machine gun to make sure that no armored carriage followed them from behind.

"Damn it, sorry, Del, it's my fault," Anna said.

"Hey, Eric will come after me sooner or later," Del said.

"We need to retrieve something important from the house," Cassandra mumbled.

"Research, how about your research?" Del asked.

"Yeah, that's why we need to get back to our house," Cassandra said.

"Let's go, before the military mobilizes its unit, we better get there right now!" Del hit the gas even harder.

Del drove to the region where his house was located. He hoped that he arrived there in time before the whole military of the East region mobilized itself and searched the whole region for them.. Del didn't doubt that they hadn't seen the worst of it.
