Chapter 15 The Sniper!

Whoosh!

A black walkie-talkie was thrown from the back of the truck. Zhou Zhengde, who was still shocked by the hemostatic talisman, subconsciously raised his hand to catch it.

He knew his stuff; he recognized at a glance that the walkie-talkies were expensive, anti-jamming models.

Where did the Blackfire Gang get so much restricted equipment?!

Zhou Zhengde looked at the bottom of the truck again, and with the help of the car’s headlights, he saw the cheap sneakers that were common in Zhongcheng.

“Ugh… Captain Zhou, are you alright?”

Zhou Zhengde replied in a hoarse voice, “He won’t die, he should.”

“Will more members of the Blackfire Gang come?” Wang Jixuan asked.

“This is the territory of the City of Joy and the Silver Party. I hired their people… They should be on their way… The Blackfire Gang’s territory isn’t here, so they shouldn’t be able to get here.”

Zhou Zhengde cursed the Black Fire Gang under his breath, but outwardly maintained his composure and quickly asked:

“How are you? Are you hurt?”

“No, not for now. If you’re alright, I’ll be leaving now.”

“Wait! Wait!” Zhou Zhengde didn’t call out Mu Liang’s name directly. “You came to the city to take revenge on the Black Fire Gang?”

“It’s not a matter of revenge.”

Wang Jixuan leaned against the back of the carriage and spoke calmly.

He could already see the headlights appearing in the distance along the highway and hear the roar of motorcycle engines.

“They wanted to kill me; I was merely acting in self-defense.”

“These people coming ahead should be your protectors.”

“The Silver Party’s support, they like this motor vehicle… It seems the general provisions for self-defense and counterattack cannot cover your current actions… Mu Liang, do you want to cooperate?”

Zhou Zhengde glanced at the people beside him and said decisively:

“You are very strong. Although I don’t know if you are a psionicist, we can agree on this matter.”

“I can help you solve all the procedural problems!”

“How about we join forces to take down the Blackfire Gang? I can use a lot of resources, not just the Midtown Sheriff’s Office. Although I hate using these so-called connections.”

Wang Jixuan leaned against the truck bed and thought carefully for a while.

To be honest, he had a fairly good impression of the security captain who had helped him twice.

Sizzle.

Zhou Zhengde’s voice came through the walkie-talkie, his voice very sincere:

“I really want to save Wei Na. Wei Na is just an ordinary doctor. She doesn’t have any background. At most, she just has a lot of friends.”

“The Blackfire Gang is going after me tonight. I’m at odds with them to the death. I don’t know why they’re acting like they’ve lost their minds and want to kill me. It might be related to the people I’ve offended.”

“I must make it clear that, judging from tonight’s events, cooperating with me might drag you into even bigger trouble, but Mu… brother, I guarantee you with my family’s honor that I will help you resolve any trouble you encounter in this matter, unless I am dead.”

Wang Jixuan walked out of the truck with his hands behind his back.

Several people next to Zhou Zhengde instinctively raised their guns, but Zhou Zhengde stretched out his arm and forcefully pressed the gun barrels down.

“Who have you offended?” Wang Jixuan asked leisurely.

“Thirteen institutes.”

Zhou Zhengde sighed:

“The Thirteenth Biological Research Institute, the creator and controller of psionicists, is a behemoth organization spanning several war zones, and is known as the savior of mankind.”

“When I was the deputy captain of the Fortress Enforcement Team, I exposed their long-term atrocities of human experimentation, and then… I became the captain of the Central City Security Team.”

He added, “The Blackfire Gang’s business is related to the Thirteenth Institute; they provide the Thirteenth Institute with materials.”

“Alright, then I’ll cooperate with you, but only on matters concerning the Blackfire Gang.”

Wang Jixuan walked forward slowly.

Zhou Zhengde patted the young man in the blue security team uniform next to him: “Tao, go shake my hand for me, make sure it’s a proper ceremony… I can’t get up now, my wound hurts terribly!”

“Captain, you should rest!”

The young man named Lin Tao put down his rifle, jumped up, took two quick steps forward, and stepped into the range of the searchlight from the window of the neighboring building.

Boom!

Snap!

Right in front of Wang Jixuan.

The young man’s temples suddenly exploded, and his face, due to the impact, resembled a wrinkled tablecloth.

A sniper bullet pierced his skull, spraying blood and brain matter into the darkness.

Wang Jixuan dodged backward almost instantly, shrinking his body behind the truck.

Boom!

The dull thud of a sniper rifle rang out once more from the depths of darkness.

The approaching group of motorcycles was thrown into disarray!

The motorcycle at the front veered toward the roadside, the impact causing its fuel tank to explode, sending out a dazzling burst of flames.

The young security team member fell to the ground.

“Lin Tao!”

Zhou Zhengde stared wide-eyed, veins bulging on his neck and forehead.

The sound of sniper rifles rang out again, and the Silver Party motorcycle group that came to provide support let out panicked shouts.

“Sniper!”

“Sniper! To the right! Get out of the way!”

“Turn off the lights! Turn off the lights now!”

“Help! Bring our heavy truck over and run that bastard over! Hurry!”

Boom!

Another sniper shot rang out.

Wang Jixuan, who was hiding in front of the truck, could clearly see that among the gang members who came on motorcycles, one guy was too slow when jumping into the ditch, and his chest exploded with a bloody hole!

The remaining gang members jumped into the ditch and lay on the edge, howling and screaming.

Sniper rifle? Sniper?

“Each of the seven major gangs employs a few snipers who can kill someone in the head from hundreds of meters away.”

Lan Yuzai’s voice echoed in my ears.

Wang Jixuan secretly thought that something was wrong.

Judging from the gunshot, the opponent was more than eighty feet away. The weapon in the opponent’s hand was too powerful, and the bullets fired were more than twice as fast as those of a pistol. Even with his current soul power enhancing his eyes, he could not see the trajectory of such bullets.

Even with the Swiftness Talisman, Swiftness Spell, and internal energy infused into his feet, he probably wouldn’t be able to dodge the opponent’s shots.

Based on the sound, the other party was located in that dimly lit neighborhood, probably on the roof of a bungalow.

Wang Jixuan subconsciously pressed down on the pocket added to the back of the lining.

More than a hundred talismans lay quietly here.

But now, the biggest challenge is how to get closer to the other party.

Wang Jixuan glanced at Zhou Zhengde, who was almost out of control, and the corpse of the young man named Lin Tao lying on the ground, and quickly considered a solution.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

“Fuck your grandpa!”

Zhou Zhengde cursed loudly, grabbed a rifle from the person next to him, and tried to get up despite his abdominal wound.

Boom!

The sniper rifle fired, and before Zhou Zhengde could even stand up, a bullet struck the top of the thickened vehicle panel precisely.

The members of the Silver Party immediately pounced on Zhou Zhengde and grabbed him tightly.

“Captain Zhou! It’s Night Hawk! This is Night Hawk from the Blackfire Gang! Don’t go and get yourself killed! You haven’t paid us the final payment yet!”

“Night Hawk has arrived on the 46th floor! We must kill him!”

“Damn it! Blackfire helped me ****!”

The Silver Party gang thugs started swearing.

Zhou Zhengde squeezed his eyes shut, took a few deep breaths, forcibly suppressed his anger, and said quickly:

“Judging from the sound, the other side is using a small-caliber sniper rifle that has been phased out by the military! A standard Type 88! It uses general-purpose 5.8mm ammunition, has a ten-round magazine, and a muzzle velocity of 900 meters per second! It can penetrate a three-millimeter steel plate at a range of one kilometer!”

“Their location should be no more than 300 meters away from us!”

“There is a building blocking the view directly in front, so the other party should be to the right of the building!”

“Find a light source and shine it! Locate him! Leave the rest to me!”

Boom!

A sudden tremor came from the rear of the car.

Zhou Zhengde cursed, “He’s trying to hit our fuel tank! Try to knock out the searchlights over here!”

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three small metal tubes shot out from Wang Jixuan’s palm, and the three searchlights went out simultaneously with the sound of shattering glass.

But the car that was still burning nearby still provided enough light.

Zhou Zhengde clutched his abdomen, trying to regulate his breathing, and picked up his rifle, firing a few shots rhythmically at the burning car.

He was looking for the trajectory of the rifle’s bullet.

Boom!

The sound of a sniper rifle echoed again, and the car trembled once more.

“Find a way to locate him!”

Zhou Zhengde shouted.

The Silver Party gang members just hid behind the car, their faces pale.

Boom!

The gunshot rang out again, like a death knell.

Even with thick sheet metal covering the vehicle, it’s uncertain how much damage it can withstand. If the fuel tank is breached, there’s a chance the other party could detonate it.

“I am confident that I can get close to the other party.”

Wang Jixuan’s voice suddenly rang out, and he simply said:

“Let me handle it.”

“Mu Liang, don’t be impulsive!” Zhou Zhengde shouted quickly, “This is very likely an elite sniper retired from the army! He’s not so easy to deal with!”

“No problem, I have a way.”

Wang Jixuan let out a soft breath, his eyes showing a newfound calmness.

By the light of the fire, Zhou Zhengde could barely make out that Mu Liang had taken out several long strips of pink paper from his leather jacket and stuck them on various parts of his body.

Then, a faint light seemed to appear around Mu Liang.

Wang Jixuan used five talismans in one go.

The Strength Talisman increases strength, the Vajra Talisman enhances protection, and the Hemostasis Talisman prevents problems before they occur. The two Swiftness Talismans on his legs were nearly exhausted of spiritual power, so he removed them and replaced them.

Master Wang had already devised a plan. Hiding in front of the truck, he leaped up, grabbed his pistol, and smashed it forward, easily shattering the truck’s windshield. He then nimbly slipped inside.

Under the watchful eyes of Zhou Zhengde and his henchmen from the Silver Gang, Wang Jixuan kicked the truck door several times, sending it flying.

Boom!

A sniper bullet grazed just past Wang Jixuan’s feet!

Wang Jixuan’s heart trembled, and he took a deep breath. His body darted out like a cheetah, and he landed accurately in front of the car door with a forward lunge. He grabbed the inside handle of the car door and lifted it up!

The shield is complete!

With his mind at ease, he crouched down behind the car door and rushed quickly toward the direction from which the gunshots were coming!

There were scattered low buildings ahead. He only needed to cross twelve zhang (approximately 33 meters) to enter a place out of the other party’s sight.

He only needed less than two breaths to cover those twelve zhang!

Boom!

Wang Jixuan suddenly felt a tremendous force on his left shoulder, and a powerful impact burst out from the car door and his left shoulder at the same time!

His expression was somewhat surprised, and his body leaned backward uncontrollably!
