Chapter 261 - Care To Join The Special Force? (1/2)
Episode 254- Care to join the special force?
Maybe in a few more years but not today.
She stared at her telescope carefully, taking in the view of the water guard that was 500 meters away. With her index finger, she practiced her trigger control without touching the trigger. From her shot earlier, she found out that a slow and steady trigger was better when using this gun, hence she began mimicking pulling the trigger slowly and steadily.
As her turn approached, she was able to shoot with the same accuracy, her finger remaining on the trigger 2 seconds after she sniped before she moved away to check her target.
”PASS!”
”PASS!”
Only 1 person from the special forces passed, which was the person who had skipped the 400m distance.
”Should we take this to the next level, Comrade Eugeneia?” Said the soldiers next to Eugene. This person wasn't the soldier who slung his arm on her but was the person who brought up her credibility as a soldier due to her status.
Eugene nodded and together they walked to the 1000m mark which was 1km.
Commander Guang looked at them in surprise but didn't say anything.
”They say shooting is 2 percent physical and 98 percent mental. Hence age or their body difference will have nothing to do with their ability to aim.” The person behind Commander Guang spoke.
Sniping was easy for Eugene as she was a mentally stable person most of the time, excluding her mental breakdown last month but besides the fact. Hitting the water gourd that was 1000 meters away was as easy as breathing to her.
The special unit trainee did not focus enough mentally and failed to pass the 1000 meter distance. This made Eugene the overall winner. Since sniping at 300m, everyone in the special unit trainees has changed their minds about Eugene, which is why they were ecstatic when she shot the 1000m distance successfully. Only the person next to Eugene who failed to pass the 1000 meter had a sour look on his face.
Eugene naturally ignored him. She was about to walk back to where her comrades were when Commander Guang spoke,
”Was that easy Comrade Eugeneia?”
Eugene stopped walking and replied, ”Yes.” Frankly speaking, it was easy because of the telescope.
”Would you like to test it out more?” Commander Guang spoke.
Eugene thought for a second. She didn't have to as she felt that she knew the limits of the telescope and the range of the gun, however, she nodded. She thought that maybe the Commander wanted her to experiment some more in order to improve the gun so she agreed.
”I believe that this sniping rifle has a limit of 1500m. Accuracy will drop to 50 if I go further with this telescope. Not to mention, firepower for this sniping rifle will decrease significantly after 1500m.” She explained to Commander Guang.
Commander Guang looked at Eugene in surprise. If she went further than 1500m, her accuracy will drop to 50? Which means that her accuracy at 1500m was still above 50? His heart beat faster from excitement. He had known how special Eugeneia was from the start as evidenced by his students Amos Rodriguez and Earnest Marleigh, and seeing her now, he truly believed them.
He nodded at Eugene that he understood.
