Chapter 18: Life and Death Sniper
“It truly lives up to the nahed helplessly
“Ah?” Li Qian didn’t understand Dr Daniel’s sigh
“If even the angels are crying, then how are we supposed to cross it?” Han Li answered him
The river was very, very long and its end wasn’t visible It was io around
“Are we going to take a ferry across the river? There are no boats here!” Han Li looked at Wu Yun with doubt
Since Wu Yun had decided to go through Angel’s Tears, then he must have a way to cross it
“Do you see that there? That’s the narrowest part of Angel’s Horns,” Wu Yun pointed out
Everyone looked over in that direction There was a rock jutting out over one side of the waterfall, while the opposite side had a corresponding rock that reached towards it They looked like two hands that were struggling to reach out to, but never touching each other
“So what? Are we going to jump across? It looks like it’s at least a dozen meters!” said Li Qian
“Of course we’ll use ropes,” Wu Yun pointed towards his backpack with a thumb There were more than just bullets in there for equipment
“Wu Yun and I will launch the rope across the cliff and fix the other end on this side Then we’ll glide across using the cable,” Zhou Yu replied
“Why are you‘hey, add some milk to my coffee’?” Li Qian’s eyes widened
“There’s isn’t anyof your comparison To me, it’s just that simple”
At this tie, featherless, and three-eyed birds were circling the skies
They flew quite low, then suddenly dove over the water’s surface A white fish as large as an adult person was caught by a beak and thrown into the air
At the sae, three-eyed birds tore apart the fish inleft The visceral sight it left behind was shocking
They stood watching everything from the shore, dumbfounded
“Did you say… that it was easy to cross from here?” Li Qian turned to ask Zhou Yu
Wu Yun sighed, “Don’t worry They’re full and they can’t sense our fear They won’t attack us so easily”
“God! Are you sure? As long as those strange birds are here, I absolutely won’t go! And across such a distance, how can we be strong enough to support our weight over the rope?! My arms will fall off halfway across! And what if the rope snaps?! What if one end isn’t properly secured?” Li Qian drew back
“That’s right, there are too erous None of us has been specially trained A distance of more than ten meters is… too much”
Even Dr Daniel shook his head
Zhou Qing and Han Li were silent, clearly showing their disapproval at the plan
Wu Yun smiled helplessly and looked at Zhou Yu, “It looks like I’ll have to properly explain to you all about an invention Juli Corp takes great pride in”
“This is cli rope our field personnel frequently use called ‘Apollo’s Arrow’ It has a range of 50 meters, and its front claw can penetrate the hardest of the rock that produces diaht of one ton I don’t think all of us added together will measure up to a ton You don’t need to worry about that either, Li Qian, you’re the one with the s us”
“Really?” Li Qian looked at Wu Yun with suspicion
“But a smaller ht, if you stop in the middle, then I really don’t do e’ll do?”
Li Qian really wanted to beat up Wu Yun
The others simply looked to Zhou Yu To them, Zhou Yu was more trustworthy than Wu Yun
Zhou Yu crossed his arms and said with an icy expression, “Wu Yun said the truth, except for one point”
“Which point?” Li Qian asked
“Which point?” Li Qian asked
“I don’t knohy this cli rope is named ‘Apollo’s Arrow’”
“Fine, the na I caest scaredy-cat ah with it with peace of mind”
“What does it have to do with me?” Li Qian eyes rounded
“One look at you and I can tell that you’re naive and you like to fantasize Greek y suits you! You’ve definitely daydrea the sun as a child!” Wu Yun ridiculed
“Huh? Isn’t Hou Yi [1] the one who shot the sun?” Han Li asked
“Also… This is Nibelungen” Li Qian wearily looked at Wu Yun He wasn’t grateful for his sense of humor at all
“What’s wrong with Nibelungen?” Wu Yun retorted
“Nibelungen coy, which is coave the rope was really too inadequate”
Finally, Li Qian felt like he could show off his IQ in front of Wu Yun
“Even if the rope system is safe, specially trained people like you and Zhou Yu et across, but the rest of us really can’t hold on for such a long distance,” Zhou Qing reiterated the concern raised by Dr Daniel
“Don’t worry I’ll hs You just need to grab onto the top of the rope and keep your balance, then I’ll push you through And before you cross over, let Wu Yun go first If he dies, it would prove that it’s iel’s Horns” Zhou Yu answered
“Okay,” Zhou Qing nodded
“Shoot all of thelanced at Zhou Yu’s sniper rifle, which he had been carrying on his back
“Shoot down? They’re flying so fast! And if they get angry, what if they flock together and attack us?” Li Qian looked stunned
Wu Yun clapped his hands and said, “Oh, not bad You grew a brain!”
Wu Yun clapped his hands and said, “Oh, not bad You grew a brain!”
“My IQ is certainly higher than yours!” Li Qian flung back
“Fine, I’ll shoot the, which is indeed a risk factor for us Since there is such a dangerous element in front of us, then we should resolve it” Zhou Yu said as he lowered the rifle from his shoulder and assembled it neatly After two sharp clicks, Zhou Yu held a complete rifle in his hands
“Zhou Yu…” Zhou Qing hesitated
“Don’t worry,” Zhou Yu glanced at Dr Daniel, who pulled Zhou Qing back
“Everyone, stay away froe birds will coainst Zhou Yu,” Wu Yun stretched out his arms to pull everyone back
Although Li Qian wanted to say that Wu Yun had no sense of camaraderie, he spoke the truth
“Um… Do you have a hold on the situation, Zhou Yu?” Han Li asked anxiously She genuinely didn’t want anything to happen to Zhou Yu
Their journey together had proven Zhou Yu’s decisiveness and his extraordinary reaction time Everyone felt in their hearts that, compared to Wu Yun, Zhou Yu was more reliable
“If the chaet rid of theun and knelt on one knee After adjusting his sight lenses, he slightly tilted his head sideways to aim at the skies above the waterfall
“I don’t want your big !”
The others nodded one by one, including Dr Daniel
At this time, Zhou Yu had started to steel hiun as steady and his shoulders did not trehtest
His mind was so focused that he was able to feel the speed of the oncoradually faded away as everything became quiet
The little thing at his waist pushed aside the scarf tohis gun, so it raised its s afraid and nervous
Han Li covered her eyes and whispered, “We should bring it over here!”
The little thing at his waist pushed aside the scarf tohis gun, so it raised its s afraid and nervous
Han Li covered her eyes and whispered, “We should bring it over here!”
What if it moved around while Zhou Yu fired?
But the little thing see to do
It only stuck out its head and stretched its neck, as if it was also a gun, staring at those strange birds with its big eyes Zhou Yu’s finger was pressed on the trigger Everything that followed only flashed by in the eyes of the bystanders, but for Zhou Yu, each frame happened in slow motion
His first shot hit the nearest monster bird dead on and it fell into the river with a cry
