Chapter 6: Replicating The Ten Successive Miracles, Gong Jian Shocked!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Before shooting, Wang Yanbing looked left and right at Lin Shu and He Chenguang. A wave of nervousness rose in his heart.

“Open the safety and shoot!”

With the squad leader’s order, Wang Yanbing restrained his emotions and, like every recruit, took out his best spirit to shoot.

At this moment, Old Hei and Gong Jian had already picked up their binoculars. They both looked at Lin Shu’s target 100 meters away.

The two of them were curious about the results too!

Last time, Lin Shu had scored 100 in a row, which shocked them. They wanted to see what kind of result Lin Shu would make with such circumstances today.

Lin Shu abandoned all distracting thoughts and narrowed his right eye. His left eye looked through the rear sight, adjusting the muzzle’s alignment, and the chest target 100 meters away. He held his breath and focused on activating his Eagle Vision skill.

In the blink of an eye, the chest target 100 meters away gradually enlarged in his vision. With the help of S-rank Rifle Shooting Proficiency, his index finger slowly pulled the trigger.

Bang!

The bullet flew out of the barrel and spun rapidly, suddenly piercing through the target.

10 points!

Old Hei and Gong Jian’s hearts trembled.

And this was only the beginning. Lin Shu pulled the trigger one shot after another. Bullets kept coming out of the nozzle, but there were no extra bullet holes on the target. Only the hole from the first shot kept getting bigger and bigger from the heat.

Ten bullets were quickly fired. Both of them had already known… That Lin Shu was very likely to shoot another bullseye chain!

However, they were not too sure because the distance was too far for them to make any judgment. They would have to wait until the targets were brought closer later.

Holding their shock off their faces, Gong Jian and Old Hei looked at He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, and Li Erniu’s targets.

At this moment, Wang Yanbing’s score was out. Ninety-nine points. There was a slight mistake in his last shot, and he did not hit the bullseye on the tenth ring.

Li Erniu’s score was 98 points, with eight shots scoring 10 points and two shots scoring 9 points.

As for He Chenguang, he was currently at 90 points, but he had yet to fire his last shot.

When the first squad leader shouted, “Remove the bullets and stand up,” all the recruits, except He Chenguang, pulled the bolt twice to check their guns. After confirming that there were no extra bullets left, they stood up.

For a moment, He Chenguang, who was still lying on the ground, was the center of attention.

Old Hei looked through the binoculars for a while and frowned. He clicked his tongue impatiently and walked up to He Chenguang.

“He Chenguang, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and shoot!”

He Chenguang didn’t answer. He took a deep breath and slowly pulled the trigger. After a loud bang, Old Hei took out his binoculars and looked. He thought he was seeing things and looked again.

“90 points?!” He said in disbelief.

The other recruits also looked at each other, and chatter soon erupted around them. How could He Chenguang only score 90 points? Wasn’t he the publicly acknowledged shooting genius of the entire force? This shouldn’t be the result he should have!

Gong Jian quickly walked over and snatched the binoculars from the old man’s hand. His expression turned ugly.

“He Chenguang, what’s wrong with you?” Gong Jian stared at He Chenguang and questioned, “Is this what you’re capable of?”

He gritted his teeth. In fact, it was understandable. After all, Gong Jian admired and thought highly of He Chenguang. He was not only the instructor of the recruit force but also the instructor of the Sharpshooter 4th division. Because of his score, He Chenguang was destined to miss out on the opportunity to join the elite team.

He Chenguang did not explain. “I’m sorry, instructor.”

In fact, he did it on purpose because he wanted to give the opportunity to Wang Yanbing. At the same time, he quietly heaved a sigh of relief because two bullets in one bullet hole were the limit of what he could do in such a windy situation today. Thinking of this, he could not help but look at Lin Shu– that shooting freak…

“Drop the ball at the critical moment!” Gong Jian clenched his fists and asked Old Hei, “How did Wang Yanbing do?”

“Reporting, 99 points!”

“Finally, there’s someone who performed as well as he used to!” As he spoke, Gong Jian thought for a moment and took out the walkie-talkie to the security soldier. “Bring me Lin Shu’s target.”

Lin Shu’s score could only be confirmed at a close distance.

At this moment—

“Report!” Lin Shu suddenly said.

Gong Jian looked at him. “Speak.”

Lin Shu’s gaze shifted. He looked at Wang Yanbing and then at He Chenguang. In the end, he made up his mind.

“Instructor, I don’t believe that He Chenguang can only score 90 points. Even if he performed abnormally, he shouldn’t have missed the target. I suggest that we bring his target as well!”

Lin Shu had made this decision after careful consideration.

At first, he didn’t want to get involved in the matter between He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing, but how should he put it? After all, he trained with Wang Yanbing every night, so he had some respect for the other man’s hard work. Lin Shu felt that rather than letting Wang Yanbing see hope only to be met with the truth later down the line, it was better to let him accept reality now. That way, he would feel better.

This wasn’t because Lin Shu was a busybody, but he didn’t agree with He Chenguang’s behavior.

Even though he knew He Chenguang had good intentions.

Gong Jian looked at Lin Shu in surprise, but after thinking about it, he felt that what Lin Shu said made sense. He nodded and picked up the walkie-talkie again.

“Bring He Chenguang’s target as well.”

He Chenguang’s expression changed as he looked at Lin Shu with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Lin Shu turned a blind eye to this.

Wang Yanbing’s expression also changed slightly. He recalled Lin Shu’s ten successive shots and was deep in thought.

….

Soon, Lin Shu and He Chenguang’s targets were brought over.

Gong Jian and Old Hei looked at He Chenguang’s target first. There was one particular bullet hole that stood out from the rest. It was different from the rest. It was obvious that two bullets had passed through that bullet hole.

“Good boy, I almost misunderstood you! Two bullets for one bullet hole, 100 points!” Old Hei smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

Gong Jian squinted his eyes and asked, “What’s going on?”

“This…” Now that things had come to this, He Chenguang could only bite the bullet and play dumb. “Instructor, I didn’t know that I had achieved this result. I couldn’t see the target clearly due to the distance.”

Although this explanation was a little far-fetched from the man, it still made sense.

Gong Jian looked at him meaningfully but didn’t say anything.

Wang Yanbing was staring at He Chenguang, deep in thought.

Then, Gong Jian and the Old Hei looked at Lin Shu’s target. Just like last time, there was a big hole in the center of the target.

“Sh*t… T-this… Instructor…” Old Hei stuttered, then he swallowed his word, not knowing what to say.

Gong Jian was also staring at Lin Shu’s target. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Lin Shu. Even the usually calm and composed Gong Jian couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

“You brat… Another consecutive bullseye? The wind is so strong today. Doesn’t the wind speed affect you?!”

Sharpshooters were not rare. All four forces were sharpshooters, but a genius sharpshooter like Lin Shu was really… An existence as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns!
