15 Perception of God (1/2)
Chapter 15: Perception of God
“What you can’t see with your eyes, use your mind to capture its trajectory and feel its emotions. From that, ‘see’ its existence.”
Shi Xiaobai always remembered this line. Although he forgot where this line came from, maybe it was a novel or an animation, or it could have been fabricated by himself, Shi Xiaobai believed in one thing—one’s mind could see everything.
This was one of the reasons Shi Xiaobai eventually made this choice. Shi Xiaobai believed he could use his mind’s power to capture the target’s location, and from that complete the feat of shooting blind.
“There is nothing This King can’t do.”
This was Shi Xiaobai’s current maxim.
The belief of being able to implement this personal maxim made Shi Xiaobai attempt to sense the energy in his mind after he closed his eyes. Regardless of how chaotic the external world was, he remained calm in his inner mind.
However, what made Shi Xiaobai disappointed was that after more than ninety targets went by, he still failed to sense a hint of his mind’s energy. The world he saw after closing his eyes was still that dark world with that layer of illumination.
But just as Shi Xiaobai was about to abandon his belief, the voice of the Violent Girl resounded in his ears—”Shi Xiaobai! Hurry up and open your eyes to score one point! As long as you obtain one point, I’ll agreed to anything you want!”
Agree to anything, doesn’t that mean…
Shi Xiaobai could no longer hold on any further. He knew that he could not stay silent anymore. He rushed to confirm if Violent Girl’s promise would truly be effective as he hurriedly asked, “Girl, will you really agree to anything This King wants?”
These were the words Shi Xiaobai suddenly said after a prolonged period of silence. However, the more calm and tranquil it was before, the more out of the blue it was!
Everyone was dumbfounded from shock. Their conversation sounded too bizarre, with an inexplicable strange flavor to it.
Riko was also dumbfounded from shock. Although she knew Shi Xiaobai would not suggest any ‘creepy uncle’ requests, there was no guarantees a thirteen-year-old boy would suddenly have curiosities that arose from puberty, doing some understandably “naughty things”. In short, Riko whiffed a dangerous scent from his words.
Just as Riko was in a dilemma, a cold machine-like voice echoed—”Ninety-eighth point. Blue!”
“Holy shit, it’s nearly too late. I’ll agree first. If that darn kid suggests anything scummy, I’ll at most disavow everything and serve him a good beating as a side dish!”
Riko quickly made up her mind and hurriedly screamed at the top of her voice, “I’ll agree to anything. Quick shoot!
At the same time, the cold machine-like voice echoed: “Ninety-nine points. Blue!”
The next target was the last one left! There was no more time left!
Upon hearing Riko’s voice, Shi Xiaobai, who was considering when to shoot, how to shoot and where to shoot, suddenly came to a realization that there wasn’t enough time left. However, the powers of the mind he was hoping for did not appear. The world in front of his eyes was still black!
“It seems like there are things This King can’t do. Sometimes, some things won’t work out. However, one should enjoy life when there is prosperity. When it’s time to shoot, there must not be any hesitation! Here goes, I’ll let all of you see This King’s Shot of Fate!”
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai no longer hesitated. Immediately he raised his right hand and pointed in a random spot and pulled the trigger. Immediately, a laser beam shot out!
In an instant, the cold machine-like voice echoed—”Hundredth point. Red!”
Red?
Who was red?
Wasn’t red f*cking Shi Xiaobai!?
