John looked at the sleeveless iron plated vest. It was completely made of Steel and was very polished. It only head some damage at the corners of the armor, that's why the durability wasn't 100%.
John then took out the leg armor.

---------------------------
The leg armor was a blue pants togheter with a pair Steel greaves.
He looked at the armor and found it pretty good. He hesitated a little, but still made up his mind. He would use it, the armor.
To rebuild the Terrene Protectorate he must first stay alive, and the Protector's standard uniform wasn't enough to protect him.
He looked inside the box and saw that it had two more items. It was the weapons.
John took the biggest one.

[Hyperion weaponry?] John stared at the weapon.

John then took the pistol from the box.
------------------------------

--------------------------------
[Both weapons came from Hyperion Corporation. They are at least more reliable than most weaponry sold around.] John thought.
He placed everything back into the box and went to his room to take a rest, they would go to the Lunar Base 12 tomorrow.
...
After 6 hours of sleep John awoke.
He then woke Lenny up.
"Here use this" John gave sniper to Lenny.
"Why?" Lenny confusedly asked.
"You're out of bullets for your own weapons, right?"
"Oh... That's right, I had already forgot."
John wore the armor. It was a strange feeling sensing the heavy armor rub against his body when he move around. But the feeling of security was better than what he felt when he was using the Terrene Protectorate uniform.
Both John and Lenny took the elevator and left the key of the room with Glitch receptionist. They walked toward the Shopping Complex. John looked around the first floor and soon he found the sign of the 2-Stop Teleshop.
He entered the building and soon he was able to see, all around him, rooms that had Teleporters.
John walked toward the counter. There he saw the owner of the shop.
It was a human woman. She had a kind of 'futuristic' hairstyle whereas her purple short hair was almost all at one side, covering her right eye. She wasn't very beautiful, but she was indeed charming for a young woman, about 18 to 24 years old. Her slim waist and somewhat big chest gave her a big sex appeal. He skin was slightly tanned and her black eyes were enchanting.

"What's up?" She asked while relaxedly sitting on her hair. She was smoking a cigarette, so when she saw customers entering the shop, she took out the cigarette from her mouth.
John wrinkled his brows when he smelled the smoke. He decided to ignore it and proceeded to speak with her, "I want use a teleporter."
"The price of the teleporter depend on the distance of where you want to travel, and if you want to use a Retriever to come back."
A Retrieve is a simple tracking and teleportation device that allow the user to teleport toward the previous teleporter they used.
"I'll take a Retriever. The coordinates are this one" John gave the woman Penguin Pete's Data Chip.
The woman took the ship and inserted it in her PIPS, "Alright..." She took out the Chip and gave it back to John, "The fee for this coordinates is going to be 100 pixels."
"Okay..." John connected his PIPS to the pay device via a cable, almost the same one he used at the Glitch hotel.
"Transaction complete. You can use the room 4 just at your right." The woman said.
John thanked the woman and took Lenny with him toward the teleporter. They entered the room and he was able to see that the teleporter looked almost the same he had in his ship, just a little bigger.
"Alright then..." John connected his PIPS into the teleporter via wireless connection and gave it the coordinates, "Let's go..."
