Chapter 229 - One Shot Kill (First Update)

Meng Guanghui's eyes were wide like copper bells: "Really the first time?! You've learned way too fast!"

Xia Chujian tilted her head, thought for a moment, and shrugged, saying, "Maybe I'm just particularly good with mechanical things. The first time I went to the Dark Night Hunter Xihe's shooting range, I also got an eight on my first shot, and then it was ten rings every time. —It's just natural."

Meng Guanghui's lips twitched, thinking, Give you an inch, and you'll take a mile.

He didn't believe a single punctuation mark of that self-flattering talk.

Meng Guanghui unlocked the mechanical armor's weapon restrictions and said, "Alright, then shoot for me to see, use this mechanical armor to shoot."

Xia Chujian was overjoyed: "Are there targets? Or is it free rein?"

Meng Guanghui said, "See the Star Chart on the Dome? I'll turn on the Star Chart later, and that will be a natural target, and it's very fast, you won't even have time to aim."

"Then what do I shoot at? There are so many stars on the Star Chart, can I just pick any one?"

Meng Guanghui said, "Of course not just any one. Look at the Star Chart, I'll mark the stars that are flashing blue, those are your shooting targets. Try it out, see how many you can shoot down in a minute."

As he spoke, Meng Guanghui called up the control program in the Quantum Optical Brain and readjusted the Dome's Star Chart.

Xia Chujian was doubtful: "Can I really shoot? What if I shoot through the Dome?"

Meng Guanghui rolled his eyes at her: "Do you think there are real bullets in this training armor?"

"...Are there fake bullets?" Xia Chujian was even more surprised. "The first time I practiced shooting at the Dark Night Hunter Association, I used real bullets."

"The Dark Night Hunter Association is different in nature from our department, there's no comparison." Meng Guanghui shook his head dismissively. "Alright, let me see how accurate your Gunmanship is."

Xia Chujian studied the control stick, first familiarizing herself with the buttons that controlled the types of firearms and ammunition.

"It's really complete, there's actually a Sniper Rifle mode, a Submachine Gun mode, an Assault Rifle mode, and even a Smart Machine Gun mode! —Can it really produce that kind of effect?" As Xia Chujian spoke, she directly tried the Sniper Rifle mode.

She pulled up the control stick, selected the Sniper Rifle mode, and then a long barrel extended from the mechanical armor's right arm.

Half of that mechanical arm directly turned into a majestic Sniper Rifle! Xia Chujian felt that this was a Devastator Large Sniper Rifle!

She swiped her palm across the control stick, and the mechanical armor's own Devastator Large Sniper Rifle raised its muzzle, aiming at the Dome.

The next moment, she fired three shots in a row.

Three blue stars went out in response.

Meng Guanghui: "..."

This was too accurate, wasn't it?! She didn't even use the Sniper Rifle's aiming system! He hurriedly said, "Use the aiming system! Even if you have a good Gun Sense, you can't always rely on luck."

Xia Chujian then used the aiming system.

She was too lazy to calculate the ballistic system one by one, so she directly entered a program to let the Sniper Rifle automatically find blue targets to strike.

Then she sat in the driver's seat, watching the Sniper Rifle track the blue stars in the Dome's Star Chart like a Smart Machine Gun.

No matter how fast those stars were, as long as she locked onto them, she hit them accurately every time.

A minute later, Meng Guanghui looked at his Star Chart control system.

Xia Chujian had shot down one hundred and eighty blue stars.

This was still because the Sniper Rifle's automatic control system had to be restarted each time, which delayed the time.

But this speed, even if ranked in their Special Security Bureau's entire system, could be in the top three!

Meng Guanghui suddenly became excited and said, "What if you don't use the Sniper Rifle's aiming system? Just shoot yourself!"

Xia Chujian said, "I'll try."

Meng Guanghui quickly said, "I forgot just now, you quickly give yourself a code name and enter it into the system, so that training records can be generated."

Within the Special Security Bureau, some special members do not disclose their real names and identities internally, but use code names instead.

Because Huo Yushen had instructed that Xia Chujian's situation should be kept confidential for the time being, Meng Guanghui activated the protection program for her.

Not only was everything about the training process here kept secret, but the training results also had a very high level of security.

But there was one problem, that is, these armor's own programs must have a unique identity identifier.

For ordinary Special Security Bureau members, the identity identifier is their real identity.

For special Special Security Bureau members, the identity identifier is their code name, a unique code name.

Meng Guanghui didn't even have time to explain before Xia Chujian directly took action.

She first entered "King of Guns", but found it was already taken, so she couldn't use it.

Then she entered "God of Guns", but it was also taken, so she still couldn't use it.

Xia Chujian was already impatient and directly entered "One Shot Kill".

Ding!

The system chimed softly and accepted it.

So, Xia Chujian, bearing the codename "One Shot Kill", manually operated the sniper rifle attached to the mecha arm, wielding it as if it were an extension of her own body, and fired at the rapidly moving blue stars in the Star Chart on the Dome.

Bang bang bang bang!

Within a minute, she fired twelve hundred shots in a row, emptying the mecha's built-in magazine, and actually hit twelve hundred and five stars!

The extra five stars were because some blue stars were so close together that she hit two adjacent stars with one bullet!

Meng Guanghui was dumbfounded.

This was breaking their bureau's mecha sniper rifle shooting record!

Six hundred shots in a minute, that's ten shots per second, but this was a sniper rifle!

If it were a fully automatic machine gun, it could fire twenty thousand bullets per second, so one hundred thousand bullets would only take five seconds.

A fully automatic pistol could empty a twenty-round magazine in one second.

A fully automatic Submachine Gun could fire one hundred bullets per second.

But sniper rifles weren't meant to be used like that.

Who the hell could fire a sniper rifle like a fully automatic pistol?!

If she used a Submachine Gun... Good heavens, Meng Guanghui didn't dare to think about it.

The key was, she not only fired quickly, but she also hit every shot!

Even more deadly was that she didn't use the sniper rifle's smart aiming system, and was even more efficient than using it! In fact, this result was also a record for Xia Chujian.

Because this Devastator Large Sniper Rifle was a weapon attached to the mecha, the mecha's own shock resistance greatly reduced the huge recoil generated when the sniper rifle fired.

If Xia Chujian hadn't been shooting with the mecha's sniper rifle, but had relied on her own body to resist the recoil, at this speed and frequency, she could have eliminated the enemy, but she would have also eliminated herself...

But a record was a record, no matter how it was achieved.

Meng Guanghui didn't even dare to look at the bureau's internal forum at this time.

Every time a bureau record was broken, no matter what kind of record, it would be broadcast on the forum for a whole day.

Today was Saturday, so it would be broadcast until the end of Monday.

Because Saturday and Sunday were rest days and didn't count as normal broadcast time.

And Meng Guanghui's fear was justified.

At this time, the Special Security Bureau's internal sniper forum had exploded.

[King of Guns]: What's going on? What's going on? Which idiot broke my record?

[Drinking Horse Southern Cross Star River]: Stop bragging, upstairs. How many times has your record been broken? Do you think it's your XX record!

[Drinking Horse Southern Cross Star River]: Mechanical Intelligence, get your ass out here! Why are you censoring the words XX! I'm saying XX record! I'm saying XX record! I'm saying record!

[Intelligent System Administrator]: [Drinking Horse Southern Cross Star River] Exceeded the limit for foul language, banned for twenty-four hours.

[God of Guns]: Stop interrupting, everyone. Who is this newbie who broke the record, [One Shot Kill]?

[My Wife is Called Sniper Rifle]: Seems like a pure newbie? Never heard of them before.

[Stepping on Eastern Sky Plain Federation]: This record is too outrageous, right?! Twelve hundred shots in a minute! And with a sniper rifle! Hit twelve hundred and five stars! - Did the system miscalculate? Is this person still alive? Weren't they torn apart by the recoil?

[I X Remnant Species Its Ancestor]: I also think the system must have made a mistake. Averaging twenty shots per second and still hitting the target, there's no way a sniper rifle could achieve that speed. It might be possible with a smart machine gun, but with a smart machine gun, that speed would be too low, and the accuracy wouldn't be that high.

...

On the forum, everyone went from surprise to disbelief, and almost everyone was sure that the system had made a mistake.

Until the system uploaded the processed video, with some background images removed, as data support for the record.

After watching the video, everyone shut up.

It turned out it wasn't an ordinary sniper rifle, but a sniper rifle attached to a mecha.

So, below that record, a batch of incense-burning images appeared, all praying for [One Shot Kill]'s blessing, hoping to share in the light of such godlike Gunmanship.

Huo Yushen also received a push notification from the department forum, discovering a rookie who broke the record.

When he saw the codename "One Shot, One Kill," the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

This style was too familiar.

Then, he clicked into the forum, watched the video recording, and as expected, it should be... Xia Chujian, right? He sent a "?" to Meng Guanghui.

Meng Guanghui immediately understood and replied.

[Meng Guanghui]: Marshal Huo, now I understand why you made an exception to recruit a Gene Non-Evolver into our department! Her gunmanship is absolutely amazing! She just broke the bureau's mecha sniper rifle record! Did you see that?!

Huo Yushen thought, if he hadn't seen it, would he have asked? He calmly replied: "Yes, I know. Keep it confidential."

Then, he turned off the Quantum Optical Brain and continued working.

Meng Guanghui waited for a long time, only to receive this sentence, and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Then, he composed himself and calmly said to Xia Chujian, "Don't be arrogant. This is just target practice. In real missions, those enemies won't just stand there and let us shoot them. For example, the Remnant Species. You've fought the Remnant Species, right?"

He knew about Xia Chujian's "achievements" in fighting the Remnant Species at the Dark Night Hunter Association.

Xia Chujian nodded: "I've fought them. It was okay. That thing doesn't seem very smart."

Meng Guanghui: "..."

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Don't think that just because the Remnant Species didn't use Mental Strength on you that one time, and you took advantage of it, you can take advantage of it every time! If you think that way, you should leave here as soon as possible, lest you die without a burial place!"

Xia Chujian smiled and said, "I know. I didn't think I could take advantage of it every time."

It was just that those monsters were not strong enough each time. What could she do? Xia Chujian didn't want to continue this topic. Without waiting for Meng Guanghui to respond, she immediately said, "What's next? What other training content is there?"

Meng Guanghui said, "Next, I will replace the sparring robots, increasing their level according to the Gene Evolvers' strength level, one level at a time. You've already passed the D-Rank Initial Stage. Next, there's D-Rank Mid-Stage, D-Rank Peak Stage. Then there's Rank C Initial Stage, Mid-Stage, and Peak Stage, all the way to Rank A Peak Stage. The main thing is to familiarize you with the physical strength of the Gene Evolvers themselves. These have nothing to do with Mental Strength. You don't have Mental Strength, so you don't have to worry about the sparring robots using Mental Strength to suppress you."

Xia Chujian: "..."

Okay, that was exactly what she needed.

So, for the next two months or so, every weekend, she immersed herself in the training ground of the Special Security Bureau's garrison, fighting happily with sparring robots of all levels.

She only spent one weekend familiarizing herself with the operation of ordinary mechanical mechas.

After two weekends, her piloting level of this ordinary type of mechanical mecha rose from entry-level to SSS+ Rank.

This meant that her piloting level of this ordinary type of mechanical mecha was already able to beat all pilots. Unless the opponent simultaneously used Mental Strength to assist in piloting and attacking.

Of course, this was Meng Guanghui's comment to her.

Xia Chujian accepted it humbly.

The second update is at 1 p.m., a large chapter, including the bonus update for May's monthly tickets.

There have actually been quite a few updates recently. w(Д)w.
