Chapter 75 Shooting
Outside the shooting range gate, Chu Mian stood with his arms crossed and spoke earnestly.
"Xia Xue knows mystical arts, that's something you've already confirmed, it can't be just my baseless speculation, can it?"
Xia Jue still refused to believe it.
"There are many people who know mystical arts; surely not all of them have awakened their innate wisdom?"
Chu Mian stuck to her point of view.
"But Xia Xue is the most suspicious."
Xia Jue sighed, glanced at Xia Xue who was still holding the pistol and constantly adjusting her posture, and said helplessly:
"Your reason is still too far-fetched."
Chu Mian, abandoning her previous seriousness, leaned forward, put her arm around Xia Jue's waist, and said with a grin, "I know, that's why I'm observing up close and collecting evidence."
Xia Jue looked at Chu Mian with a suspicious gaze: "You really were just observing from close up?"
Chu Mian said confidently, "Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"
Xia Jue nodded at first, then realized, "Wait a minute, haven't you lied to me countless times since we were little?"
Just then, a gunshot rang out from the shooting range.
The two looked at the shooting range at the same time, and the monitor above Xia Xue's head showed "One Ring".
Chu Mian gave a thumbs-up.
"Good, you hit the target."
Xia Jue smiled and nodded: "You hit the target on your first shot. You're lucky."
With a "bang," a second gunshot rang out.
While the two were talking, Xia Xue had already adjusted her posture and fired the second shot.
The two looked at the monitor above Xia Xue's head.
"Nine rings?" Chu Mian looked at Xia Jue in astonishment: "A-Jue, are you sure this is Xiao Xue's first time firing a gun?"
Xia Jue wasn't entirely sure at this point either: "I guess so."
Xia Xue glanced thoughtfully at the gun in her hand, then fired another shot.
"Ten rings".
Looking at the monitor above Xia Xue's head, Chu Mian and Xia Jue exchanged a glance and quickly walked towards Xia Xue.
……
Xia Xue adjusted her posture based on her natural gun sense, and finally got it almost right. With excitement, she took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and stared intently at the bullseye fifty meters away before gently pulling the trigger.
With a loud "bang," a powerful thrust traveled from the gun barrel to her right arm and body, which Xia Xue immediately neutralized with her internal energy neutralization technique. A strong smell of gunpowder filled her nostrils, and only then did Xia Xue realize that she had fired the gun.
Xia Xue looked at the target fifty meters away, using her inner energy to enhance her vision, and with her eyesight, she could see at a glance where her bullet had hit.
"The outermost ring, the 'first ring,' I think that's what it's called."
Xia Xue used her gun-sense talent to savor the shot she had just fired, found some shortcomings, adjusted her posture, and fired another shot.
This time, she wasn't as excited as before. Looking at the target that was only one ring away from the bullseye, Xia Xue felt that she had underperformed.
"It doesn't seem to be my problem, it's the gun's problem. This gun needs to be tilted a little to the left."
Xia Xue glanced thoughtfully at the gun in her hand, and without pausing, fired another shot.
Right in the bull's eye.
Xia Xue nodded in satisfaction.
"It really was a problem with the gun."
Xia Xue then belatedly glanced at the target in front of her.
He only needed three shots to get a perfect score; he truly has a natural talent for shooting.
Hearing the noise, Xia Xue turned to look at Xia Jue and Chu Mian who were walking towards her.
"Are you done talking?"
Chu Mian exclaimed in amazement, "You hit the bullseye on your first shooting attempt! That's amazing, Xiao Xue! How did you do that?"
Xia Jue also looked at Xia Xue with surprise. At this moment, she also began to believe Chu Mian's absurd diagnosis.
Whether it's the seemingly absurd, self-taught awakening of personality, or the awakening of innate wisdom imbued with memories of past lives.
Xia Xue guessed what they were thinking and shook her head.
"I practiced it in my dreams."
Xia Xue gave a perfunctory reply, turned her head, and fired again.
Bang bang bang.
He fired three shots in a row, all hitting the bullseye.
Xia Xue put down the gun, feeling utterly bored.
"This is boring, let's go."
The more anticipation I had beforehand, the more disappointed I was after actually firing the gun.
The pistol was far inferior to her Flying Locust when she was at the peak of her power, let alone the Flying Locust she was now.
Xia Jue noticed Xia Xue's disappointment and suggested, "How about we try a sniper rifle?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Jue regretted it.
Xia Xue stopped walking, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "Okay, but are there any moving targets?"
We've only fired a few shots at stationary targets, and now we're going to shoot at moving targets?
Xia Jue also wanted to see Xia Xue's limits, so he gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.
"have!"
Upon seeing this, the range staff quickly stepped forward and whispered to Xia Jue, "Battalion Commander, this is against the rules."
Xia Jue insisted, "Get ready. If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility."
The range management personnel had no choice but to prepare.
"Is this a sniper rifle?"
Xia Xue took the sniper rifle out of the gun case, gently stroking it and feeling the texture of the gun. Her innate gun sense stirred her emotions once again.
Xia Xue picked up the sniper rifle, holding it like a toy gun with one hand and the other hand gripping the nuclear strike mechanism, resting it on her right shoulder.
Chu Mian warned, "Sniper rifles have strong recoil; you'll hurt yourself doing that."
Xia Xue kept her eyes fixed on the sniper rifle and replied nonchalantly.
"It's alright, I can neutralize this recoil."
Chu Mian then belatedly realized that Xia Xue was a Grandmaster of Internal Energy.
She turned her head and glanced at Xia Jue, who had remained silent, and gently nudged Xia Jue's side with her elbow.
"You thought of that already, didn't you? Why didn't you remind me?"
Xia Jue said, puzzled, "I know Xiaoxue's information, and you know it too. What am I reminding you of?"
"Of course, it's something that a Grandmaster of Internal Energy can neutralize the recoil."
Chu Mian pouted.
"I'm not a martial artist, so I don't know much about these things. You didn't even bother to remind me, which made me lose face in front of Xiaoxue."
Xia Jue shook her head and said, "What's wrong with saying something unprofessional? What's so embarrassing about it?"
Chu Mian glared at Xia Jue.
Of course, it was to establish Xia Xue's authority in front of her, so as to pave the way for the work to come later.
Five hundred meters ahead, a frisbee was fired from the shooting range. Xia Xue barely needed to aim; she simply raised her hand and fired.
The frisbee shattered instantly.
Next came two frisbees, and Xia Xue fired two shots almost without thinking.
The two frisbees shattered again.
With almost no gap, the four frisbees were launched.
Xia Xue frowned slightly, glanced in a certain direction, fired four shots at random, shattering four frisbees, put down her sniper rifle, and said to Xia Jue with a bored expression, "Sis, I'm bored, let's go."
Xia Jue was completely dumbfounded.
Although a Grandmaster of Internal Energy gains an advantage when practicing spear techniques, it's still not as exaggerated as Xia Xue's level.
"Ah, okay, okay, let's go."
