Chapter 1663 - Do You Know the Secret of Shooting Well (1/2)

Having received the details of the mission, the next step was to collate all the necessary information, come up with a battle plan and prepare for their next steps.

Although Ninth Si had provided them with rather comprehensive information, Xu Zhenyu was an elite soldier and, apart from his own comrades, he would not easily trust anyone during this period.

Not to mention that this mission was extremely important and there was no room for any mistakes.

And Ninth Si was such an enigma that Xu Zhenyu had to keep his guard up against him.

As a result, their first step would be to affirm the accuracy of the information. Some of the world’s best military scouts were part of this operation, so this assignment had been handed to them.

“Bang bang bang—”

Si Yiyan was aiming and shooting a Barrett M82A1 sniper rifle from Country M. He maintained his stance from start to finish, but was able to strike all his targets from all directions.

Jiang Hongjie, the soldier who had previously picked a quarrel with Si Yiyan, was standing in the shadows. He was awestruck.

He may look young, but he was well-known throughout his team as an excellent sharpshooter.

He was allowed to join this overseas mission because of his exemplary marksmanship.

He had pitted his shooting skills with some of the other foreign marksmen and found that his standards were right up there with the best of them. This filled his heart with tremendous pride.

“Bang…” A whistling bullet suddenly sliced through the air and went straight at him.

Jiang Hongjie’s mind went blank. All the self-preservation skills he had learned during training were completely useless now. His pupils dilated as he stared at the incoming golden bullet.

Sweat drenched his forehead and his back. Even his breathing felt extremely labored.

“Pffftt…”

The bullet whizzed past his ear.

Jiang Hongjie’s legs went soft and he nearly collapsed on the ground. Since he enlisted in the army, he had participated in many missions and encountered several life-and-death situations. Nevertheless, he had never experienced this level of fear before.

His fear was not because he was scared of death.

It was because he did not even get the chance to react to his impending death. All he could do was just watch the bullet penetrate his body and die without even the opportunity to fight back.

To a soldier, this was the scariest way to die.

Jiang Hongjie was panting heavily and emitting rasping sounds from his throat.

At this moment, he finally realized just how foolish he was to have picked a quarrel with that person. The fact that the person had only thrown him a kick before was already a great mercy.

Even Team Leader Xu did not give him such a terrifying and oppressive feel.

Jiang Hongjie turned around and saw the bullet lodged in the wall behind him. It glinted coldly.

Si Yiyan put down his gun and gave him a mild glance. He had no intention of shooting anymore.

Fools rushed in where angels feared to tread. Jiang Hongjie hustled over to Si Siyan and asked, “Your shooting skills are really good. How did you get so good?”

After his brief bout of fear, Jiang Hongjie’s heart was now full of ardent idolization. As the sharpshooter in his team, his only goal in life was to improve his shooting skills and surpass his own limitations.

Si Yiyan paused, his boots stepping heavily into the ground. “Do you wish to know?”

Jiang Hongjie was dumbfounded!

Having known Ninth Si for so long, everyone knew just how enigmatic and cold this guy was. Apart from Team Leader Xu, he ignored everyone else and seldom spoke.
