Volume 1 Clone Army Chapter 17 A God-like Perspective
When pulling the trigger, Li Jiu had already closed his eyes, and he was struggling in his mind on how to master the trajectory of the M16 in his hand as quickly as possible.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't be able to see anything with his eyes closed.
However, for some reason, when the bullet flew out of the muzzle, Li Jiu suddenly felt a tingling electric current running through his mind. Immediately afterwards, he actually "saw" the trajectory of the bullet's flight from a strange perspective!
Li Jiu could feel that the scenery observed from this perspective was completely different from the world he usually saw. This was a 360-degree, all-round, no-dead-angle three-dimensional perspective!
The moment this perspective appeared, Li Jiu had an illusion in a trance... It seemed that at this moment, everything in the world was under his control, and he was the master of this infinite world, the god who overlooked all living beings!
From this god-like perspective, Li Jiu saw the bullet flying out of the muzzle, crawling forward inch by inch at a snail-like pace...
At this moment, Li Jiu did not think about why he had such a magical perspective, but focused on watching the trajectory of the bullet, wanting to take this opportunity to completely master the trajectory of this M16 assault rifle.
Li Jiu used his magical vision to observe the trajectory of the bullet's flight. He estimated that several minutes had passed, but the damn bullet only moved forward less than a meter... So, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "This is too damn slow..."
Oddly enough, the poor bullet seemed to sense Li Jiu's dissatisfaction. The next moment, it suddenly soared in speed as if it had been injected with chicken blood, and shot towards the distant target at a speed of about one meter per second.
Li Jiu estimated that the bullet flew for about one or two minutes before it finally reached the target about a hundred meters away. The result this time was the same as the previous four shots, and it still missed the target.
But this time, Li Jiu was not disappointed. Instead, he was extremely excited. Even the pressure brought by the few bullets that missed the target was swept away!
Because, this time, he had "seen" the trajectory of the bullet very clearly and had completely mastered the trajectory of the M16 in his hand!
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, he is absolutely sure that the next four bullets will hit the bull's eye!
"According to the trajectory of this bullet, the point where the bullet landed is about fifty centimeters to the left of the aiming position... This means that with the next shot, as long as the angle of the muzzle is slightly adjusted, I should be able to hit the ten ring..." Li Jiu thought to himself.
"Buzz!" At this moment, a sudden idea flashed through his mind, and Li Jiu's body trembled slightly inadvertently, and he immediately woke up from that god-like perspective.
After opening his eyes, Li Jiu happened to see Scar Brother holding a telescope, watching the results of Li Jiu's shooting.
This scene made Li Jiu feel a little surprised. He frowned and thought to himself, "I just felt that several minutes had passed. Could it be that in reality it was just a moment? In addition, what about that magical perspective just now..."
"Haha, brother Li Jiu, you are really brave! I didn't expect that you would deliberately miss the target with the sixth shot?" After seeing the result of this shot, Scar Brother put down the telescope and looked at Li Jiu with a fake smile: "Is this the legendary courage of a skilled person? Are you really so confident that you can get a perfect score of ten with the remaining four shots?"
Scar brother's words interrupted Li Jiu's thoughts, making him feel a little unhappy, so he smiled coldly and said, "Why do you care whether I have confidence or not? If I lose, I will give you the money. Don't waste time, it's your turn."
Scar Brother's expression froze, and his smile disappeared immediately. He wanted to test Li Jiu again to see if this guy was a real master or just a rookie who was just pretending to be strong. But he didn't expect that this guy's straightforward response would choke him so much that he couldn't speak, and he felt extremely depressed.
So, next, Scar Brother, with a sullen face, picked up the golden M60 machine gun and fired at the target.
As expected, Scar Brother’s shot hit the bull’s eye and made a perfect ten!
However, after seeing the result on the target, Li Jiu smiled indifferently. This time, he really didn't pretend... It was because he had strong self-confidence and confidence in his heart that he did so.
At this moment, Li Jiu thought that even if Scar Brother's next shots would hit the bull's eye, the other party would definitely lose the bet!
Because he was absolutely sure that he could hit 50 rings, and the opponent had missed once, so he could only hit 98 rings at most. According to the bet, he only needed to hit half of Scar Brother's number to win, so the outcome was obvious.
As it turned out, the subsequent development of this gambling game was not much different from what Li Jiu had expected.
When Li Jiu fired the remaining few bullets, he precisely adjusted the angle of the muzzle according to the observed ballistic trajectory. As expected, every shot hit the center of the bull's eye, and he ultimately achieved a score of fifty rings.
After seeing Li Jiu hit the ten rings again, Scar Brother finally confirmed in his heart that this rookie was definitely pretending from the beginning to the end!
In his opinion, Li Jiu could have hit the full ten, but he missed the target by five shots. This was just a deliberate act of letting the opponent win… After thinking about it for a while, he thought that this guy was either trying to trick the opponent by relying on his sharp shooting skills, or that he thought that he had been too arrogant in the bet and gave the opponent half the number of shots, and this new recruit was unwilling to take advantage of him, so he missed the target by five shots…
In short, no matter what, he has already determined that Li Jiu is definitely a sharpshooter!
However, as a veteran who had experienced the baptism of war, Scar Brother also had his own pride. He did not give up on his own initiative just because he found Li Jiu's shooting skills were amazing. He put all his strength into the next few shots, and each shot scored a ten-ring score. It was not until he saw that Li Jiu's last shot also scored a ten-ring score and secured victory with a score of fifty rings that he gave up the last useless shot.
"Haha, brother Li Jiu's shooting skills are really sharp. I'm convinced." After the gambling game was over, Scar Brother carried the golden M60 with a helpless smile on his face.
"Brother Scar, you're too kind. It's just luck." Li Jiu touched his nose and said with a faint smile. In fact, what he said was also true. Although he accidentally mastered the trajectory of the M16 in his hand later, if he hadn't been lucky enough to hit the ten ring with the first shot, he would probably still lose this bet today.
"Hey, brother, don't be so modest." Scar brother shook his head and sighed, then took out a thick wallet from his body, took out ten hundred-yuan Alliance coins from it, and handed them to Li Jiu: "Here, this is one thousand yuan of Alliance coins, brother, I am willing to accept the loss of the bet!"
Although Scar Brother was a soldier who liked to act like a hooligan and bully new recruits, he was a tough guy and never refused to pay his debts. Not to mention, in his eyes, Li Jiu had become a great man with great skills and sharp shooting skills. He even wanted to pay for his friendship, so how could he refuse to pay?
Li Jiu was slightly stunned when he saw the one thousand yuan of Alliance Coins handed over by Scar Brother. He was speechless for a while and felt deeply that the circumstances in life were sometimes really ridiculous.
I was just hiding under the tree, smoking a cigarette and taking a break. Who the hell could have thought that three soldiers would show up and insist that the area under the tree was theirs? What's even more outrageous is that the leader of the soldiers insisted on competing with me in shooting skills, and ended up giving me a thousand dollars for nothing... What kind of thing is this?
But, to be honest, today, thanks to that Scar Brother competing with me in shooting, I unexpectedly felt that magical perspective, and mastered the trajectory of the M16 assault rifle in a short period of time.
Li Jiu thought that if he was not mistaken, the magical perspective just now was most likely the special ability he possessed as an awakener! However, he still didn't know what this special ability was called, and what specific uses it had...
