Chapter 251 - Look at My Victory (2/2)
In a military competition, there was no such thing as a tie.
There can only be one, one first place.
If two are tied, they would need to compete again.
Stackhouse was fully aware of his capabilities. His condition now wouldn’t even let him aim properly at a target that was only twenty-five meters away with a gun.
What if it was another round of the last match? The result may get uglier than ever. The final result would be getting hit by bullets a thousand times. Fifty percent accuracy? How about accidental injury? Worse still, the repulsive timing. It could possibly be the worst result in all history of the Recruit Tournament.
If it’s a draw, it’s a loss! Stackhouse lay at the entrance while looking at Andy, the American recruit, who walked past him.
“All the best! Make sure you win.”
Stackhouse said with an exhausted voice, but his words were sincere.
After all that training and ending up facing such a bt-level [1] woman, he wasn’t satisfied. So, he hoped at least someone could defeat this woman, even if it was only by one second.
“I will do my best…”
Andy replied with no confidence, no matter how many times he calculated it, six hundred seconds to complete was the ultimate limit. The fact that Stackhouse could complete at this speed was not just because of his capabilities; some luck was involved too.
Andy couldn’t guarantee that he would have the same luck as Stackhouse.
Andy stepped onto the platform and once again the door of fate opened. Andy walked into it upright and fearless with his gun.
Just like Stackhouse, Andy entered the battlefield with a desperate look. Some of the audience cheered in unison on the viewing platform.
Over the years, the Americans always had the most powerful recruit.
Even the shooting competition, in recent years, they only lost by a little.
People were looking forward to Andy creating a miracle, and even though they could not speak their minds through the soundproof wall, it did not weaken their excitement.
At the same time, military enthusiasts were doing several calculations and concluded that six hundred seconds was the ultimate limit. It was impossible to surpass it.
The most professional military enthusiasts were silent. They already predicted the outcome for Andy before all the other audience based on what they calculated on the spot.
It couldn’t be within six hundred seconds, Andy’s speed was slower than Stackhouse’s.
There was already a gap between the capabilities of the two from the beginning. Stackhouse had reached his utmost limit. There was no way Andy could beat Stackhouse’s score.
Six hundred and sixty-five seconds.
It was a very good result; if it was in the Recruit Tournament in the past, he would have had the chance to become the champion.
However, today…
This would have been an outstanding result. But due to the performance of the last two recruits, it was less interesting to the audience. Even the spectators were hissing and booing at the American rookies.
Andy’s forehead was full of sweat, exhausted. He sat next to Stackhouse, frustrated and said, “I…did my best…”
“I saw.” Stackhouse smiled while looking at the wall, “Six hundred seconds even for Penglai… I am afraid the result will still be the same. He’ll probably even lose to that woman.”
Andy nodded. He furrowed his brows in frustration, “East Asia, such an interesting place. Either they stand no chance against us, or they produce unbeatable gunmen like her. Her performance could vanquish the wills of other gunmen.”
“You’re right.” Stackhouse nodded again and again, “She has trained hard, maybe she could challenge the top gunman for real.”
“The top gunman?” Andy’s eyes were filled with admiration, “Do you think she is a student of the top gunman?”
“No.” Stackhouse replied immediately, “The top gunman has his own style, that is to fight through everything no matter what. This woman may be decisive, straightforward and nimble, but she doesn’t ignore everything and no one can fake that.”
“Really?” Andy tilted his head and while looking at Stackhouse, he asked, “Do you think she will be the champion?”
“Of course!” Stackhouse rolled his eyes, “Look at her composure, bet she can still go for another three rounds of that six hundred seconds.”
“The other oriental man…”
“Impossible.” Stackhouse shook his head, “His hand is really good, but not enough to be on par with that woman. Six hundred seconds is the limit, and there’s no point reaching it. Her attitude shows that she could go on for a long fight no matter what.”
The game continued, and the recruits behind could not compete with the first three. Not only did they no longer have a hundred percent critical hit rate, they were also hit and sustained injuries.
This was no surprise, after all, the first three people performed all too well. The audience also began to understand that Andy’s performance was very exciting and not as bad as they thought it was.
The game finally reached the last person. Qin Fen slowly got up and left the other candidates.
“Hey, oriental man, good luck. ” Andy cheered half-jokingly.
Qin Fen stopped and looked back at the two men sitting on the floor and said, “I will win this.”
