Infernal Hero

Chapter 146 Driving into the Distance

Twenty kilometers of armed cross-country, including six kilometers of hilly farmland, five kilometers of sand dunes, four kilometers of rivers and mud ponds, and five kilometers of flat gravel roads. The farmland was uneven, and the low vegetation residue did not constitute a difficulty, but it greatly distracted one's attention, making it easier for one to feel exhausted. Five kilometers of sand dunes were dusty, adding to the difficulty of breathing. The four kilometers of muddy road on the river bank was like hell. It would take more than ten times the effort to pull it out with a single step. After a deep kick, it would be a deeper kick. It was as if it could not reach the end. It was undoubtedly a great test of the strength of the candidates.

From the very beginning, Gu Tianyou had rushed to the forefront as if he was riding a peerless horse.

At this moment, no IQ or EQ was of any use. It was all because of a cavity of hot blood and Superman's spiritual will and stamina.

The individual selection record was set 15 years ago by Lin Cihu during the internal competition of 722. Back then, he spent 20 minutes on six kilometers of farmland, 42 minutes on five kilometers of sand dunes, two and a half hours on the mud pond road, and 30 minutes on the last five kilometers.

When he reached the muddy road section, Gu Tianyou's time spent was roughly the same as Lin Cihu's. Behind him was Di Haoran, a gap of about five minutes. However, in the mud pond section, Gu Tianyou displayed an extremely strong ability to continuously erupt. The frequency of each step in and out was something that had never been seen before in an audition. In the midst of exclamation and despair, it was as if Feihong Treading Snow Mud had passed through these four kilometers of road by running. Improved the overall record by 130 minutes.

Outsiders didn't know anything but admiration and surprise. Gu Tianyou knew very well that it was only at this point that he believed that the qinggong that the old man had said back then was really useful. Along with the deepening of the Immovable King Ming's cultivation fire, Gu Tianyou felt his body lighter and lighter like a swallow, his Qi channels flowing smoothly and comfortably. Using the light body technique that he had practiced in the past, he seemed to be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort. The second place Di Haoran had long since been thrown into oblivion when he ran all the way here.

The last five kilometers posed no threat at all. Gu Tianyou ran to the finish line with a relaxed attitude, and the shooting test grounds appeared in front of him. The first was the long spear subject, which was divided into two parts. The first was the 200-meter short-range assault rifle. The first was the two hundred-meter, 150-meter, and 100-meter position of the kneeling and kneeling rifle. The first was the full body target, the half-body chest ring target, and the head target. Ten rounds of ammunition per target counted in the total score. The second item was the 800-meter sniper accuracy shooting. Static headshots and dynamic full-body shots were also 10 rounds per group.

Gu Tianyou learned theory of firearms application from Old Geng and Seluda, but the practical application was comprehended by him in the Guo Clan's many practical tests. During those months, all kinds of world-famous guns, including domestic military standard guns, had come into contact with each other. They were no strangers to the subject of the two hundred and three meter stance advancement. He raised his gun and was about to open fire when he discovered that the muzzle of the gun was tilted. Immediately, he was enraged. Holy sh*t, this damned old Feng, why didn't the soles of his feet fester to death? It was a bad idea for him to think of such a bad idea. He wanted to change the firearms he was carrying, but was stopped by the supervisor at the scene. Selection rules require the use of venues to provide guns, otherwise results will be voided.

The supervisor had originally calculated the time correctly and was lying in the shed recuperating. Gu Tianyou was more than three hours earlier than he had expected. He disturbed his clear dream and had to get instructions from above. Naturally, he would not give Brother Tianyou a good look.

Gu Tianyou held the tilted gun and sneered. In the battlefield where you die and I die, only those experts who can lock onto the target in the shortest amount of time are qualified to survive. In the process of firing an assault rifle, the feeling of firing is even more important than aiming according to the gun.

The gunshot rang out, completely relying on his sense of direction to find his target. Normal gunmen wouldn't be able to see the impact point without binoculars, but Gu Tianyou could. The first shot hit the lower half of the target paper, the second shot found the ten-ring point, and the next eight shots all hit the ten-ring area. The tip of the gun rushed 150 meters away, changing its posture to a kneeling posture. This time, it had already grasped the trajectory deviation characteristics of the gun, and had accurately hit ten rings from the first shot. After finishing the 100-meter stand-up shooting, the first shot only had six rings when the 200-meter crouching shot was fired. The number of shooting rings was two points less than Lin Cihu's, but it was less than half of Lin Cihu's. The supervisor was so shocked that he was dumbfounded.

There are always some unbelievable things in this world. A man could curl up in a 50 cm square cage. A middle-aged man with blurry tears and only 0.1 vision could shoot a bull's eye ten meters away with an air pistol. He could win the Olympic championship. Seluda said she had seen the most awesome mercenary she had ever seen who could shoot a wolf three hundred meters away in the eye in the dark. That person was King Ming.

The most important point of assault rifle in practical application is to maximize the firing speed under the premise of high accuracy. As an expert, the supervisor naturally knew what Gu Tianyou was doing. This student was so outstanding that he felt admiration from the bottom of his heart. So much so that he purposely put away the problematic sniper rifle before the subject of sniper shooting started. What Gu Tianyou got was a well-trained sniper rifle.

The sniper rifle is Gu Tianyou's weakness. This thing requires accurate calculation of trajectory height, windward tilt angle, distance and wind humidity to calibrate the sniper point. The shooting range of an ordinary sniper rifle was close to the limit of the effective range of an ordinary sniper rifle.

Seluda once introduced that the world's recognized record for the longest sniper kill in actual combat was set in 2009 by a sniper from the European Hansen Mercenary. He shot and killed two Taliban from a distance of 2,400 meters in a row, using an anti-materiel large caliber sniper rifle. From the time the bullet was unloaded to the time the sniper hit the target, it would take up to three seconds. At such a distance, the wind speed and the gravity of the bullet would change the trajectory of the bullet. Even if there was a slight deviation, the bullet would be able to deviate from the target very far.

Military experts estimate that hitting a target from more than 2,400 meters away is less than a millionth of a chance of success.

Not even King Ming could do this.

Gu Tianyou once asked Seluda the name of the sniper, but Seluda shook her head and said she didn't know. The snipers were undoubtedly the most frightening in the war, killing an enemy with an average of 1.3 rounds of ammunition. Because of their destructive power, snipers are often targeted by enemies offering bounties. Therefore, they would rather taste their success in obscurity than become the focus of attention.

Farther and more precisely, it was the goal that an excellent sniper would always pursue.

Gu Tianyou knew that he lacked talent in this area, especially in calculating the correlation between distance and trajectory. Combined with the effects of humidity and gravity, and even the changes in the arc of the horizon, they were even more confused. These twenty shots relied on their senses, and they had no pursuit of rings at all. All they had to do was not miss their target and burn incense. As a result, the more he was afraid, the more he came. He took off his gun when he moved his target all over his body.

He put down his gun and reported his results. He saw Xing Zekai's name when he signed the record. As Di Haoran's observer, this brat's twenty shots actually produced a miraculous score of 195 points. One could imagine what level his partner was at. Lin Cihu also maintained the record for this event, with a full score of two hundred points.

Next was the pistol subject. This was Gu Tianyou's specialty. The place was relatively unfamiliar. There were blockhouses everywhere, brightness and darkness mixed together, as well as obstructions such as trenches and haystacks. Gu Tianyou swiftly prepared his pistol, and the inspector immediately counted the time after he shouted. Gu Tianyou rushed into the arena at an exaggerated speed. From the first target being knocked down to the last target being pierced through, Gu Tianyou walked out of the exit of the arena. The record set by Xu Xiaofeng five years ago was raised by 50 seconds.

This was an amazing achievement that could not even be expected from the ambition behind his back. The supervisor looked at the results on the scoreboard and Gu Tianyou's back as he left. He sighed with great regret.

Looking at the time, it was not even seven o'clock. Based on the average grades of the students in the past, it was estimated that Di Haoran and the others were still competing with the mud pond. Gu Tianyou took a short break to prepare for the next ten kilometers swimming course. Swimming in clothes and wearing full equipment was not something that ordinary people could enjoy. Seluda had once taught this subject in a targeted manner. Gu Tianyou had practiced it a few times in the rainforest of the Golden Triangle. At that time, King Ming's body was not as hot as it is now, and he could easily complete it. Now that he was facing this subject again, he was confident in his heart.

The site was a reservoir, a long stretch running through the east and west, with mountains on both sides. There was a speedboat parked on the surface of the water. During the swimming process, the speedboat would swiftly pass in front of them, stirring up spray droplets to simulate the water waves in the real environment. Along the way, there would also be a 300-meter counter-current race, swimming against the current in the rapids with a height difference of 10 meters. Normally, after finishing the shooting course, the competitors would replenish their strength before swimming. Whether it was catching fish or catching wild beasts, they had to replenish their nutrition before they dared to challenge this course.

There were no requirements for swimming strokes. As long as they did not leave the competition waters, they were even allowed to sneak in. The first time the speedboat flew in front of him, Gu Tianyou's tracks suddenly disappeared from the surveillance footage of the headquarters. Five minutes, the limit for a normal human to dive and hold their breath. The record for a human was 22 minutes, held by Scott, the leader of the North American Scott Mercenary Corps and a Danish. Seluda explained that wang wanted to break the record in minutes.

Fifteen minutes later, there was no trace of Gu Tianyou on the surface of the water. The representative of the Jianye Police Academy couldn't hold back any longer and demanded that the competition be suspended and a search and rescue team be dispatched. However, Feng Qiwei never agreed. Because the electric pulse life recorder that the contestant carried with him showed that the contestant was still alive, but it was gone. The radar signal reflector proved that Gu Tianyou was still in this area of water and was still moving. All signs indicated that he was underwater. No matter how he did it, Gu Tianyou's match was still going on.

Underwater, Gu Tianyou was holding a fish, tearing off pieces of meat and stuffing it into his mouth. Reasonable use of every bit of energy, every bit of oxygen, was another benefit brought about by the success of Emperor Ming's cultivation. It was a clear feeling in the mind. When walking underwater, it was not so much a competition as a kind of cultivation. This feeling was unprecedentedly good. Qi and blood descended like lead and mercury, causing his body to fall into the water and walk as if he wasn't affected by the buoyancy of the water. The world in front of him was clear and bright, and the more he walked, the more relaxed he became. He only caught a fish to replenish his stamina because he felt that his stamina and vitality had been exhausted very quickly.

Twenty minutes later, Gu Tianyou finally surfaced before the upcoming turbulence. Because the distance is short, the competition will require that this part of the water must be completed on the surface of the water.

Not far away, on a large tree in the mountainous area on the shore, Lin Cihu was lowering his binoculars with a worried expression. He exclaimed, "This brat can actually hold his breath underwater for such a long time. Looks like he will be a very difficult fellow to deal with."
