Chapter 2: Stunning Shooting Results, Extracting Skill

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

What?

10 points?

When Old Hei saw the bullet hole in the center of the 100-meter target through his binoculars, his eyes narrowed. He couldn’t help but look at Lin Shu in disbelief. Lin Shu, who was always at the bottom of the training team, had scored 10 points?!

‘Could this be… A fluke?’

Just as the thought rose in his mind, in the next second—Bang, bang, bang… Rhythmic gunshots rang through the air.

When all ten bullets were fired, Old Hei’s eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly as if he had seen a ghost. He shouted in shock,

“Stop firing!!”

The recruits put down their guns in confusion and looked at the squad leader blankly.

Old Hei took a deep breath and said, “Go and get Lin Shu and He Chenguang’s targets!!”

This scene made the recruits even more confused, especially He Chenguang. He looked at the squad leader with a puzzled face. What was going on? It wasn’t surprising that Old Hei asked someone to bring his target, but what did he mean by Lin Shu’s target?

“Uh… What’s going on?”

“Lin Shu must have played too badly. Old Hei is going to scold him!”

“I think so too. Otherwise… There’s no way because he did well!”

“If He Chenguang’s target was taken back, it must be because his results are flawless. As for Lin Shu… Probably he failed spectacularly!”

The recruits whispered among themselves.

Soon, the target was retrieved and displayed in front of everyone. When Old Hei got close to Lin Shu’s target ring, he gasped.

As expected… As expected!

The recruits were also shocked, but they were shocked by He Chenguang’s target. After all, He Chenguang used 10 bullets that made a close circle to the center, which was really amazing!

They couldn’t help but take another look at Lin Shu’s target again. They were stunned for a moment and then couldn’t help but laugh.

“Ten points?”

“Out of ten bullets, only one of them hit a 10-point, and he missed the rest?”

“Hahaha… How did Lin Shu do it? Don’t tell me, he was really ‘accurate’!”

“Didn’t he say he could shoot well? But all nine bullets missed! He said that he wasn’t good at fighting, didn’t he? He even got a 10-point score. Hahaha, that’s amazing!”

Because the recruits were far away, they could only see a hole in the middle of the target. Suddenly, they started to laugh and discuss.

Only He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing were staring at Lin Shu’s target. No one knew what they were thinking.

“Shut up!” However, at this moment, Old Hei suddenly shouted and picked up Lin Shu’s target, waving it in front of all the recruits.

“Take a good look. This is the best recruit I’ve ever brought!! Look carefully, Lin Shu didn’t score 10 points, but 100 points!!!”

His words were like a clap of thunder that exploded in the recruits’ ears.

They widened their eyes as if they had been struck by lightning. They stared at Lin Shu’s target, gasping and rubbing their eyes.

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing’s expressions changed drastically.

Ten bullets, one… Bullet hole?

This… How was this possible?

Only those who had shot before knew how terrifying it was! How difficult it was to achieve!

For a moment, everyone looked at Lin Shu differently. Wasn’t he the loser at the bottom of the entire force? How… How could he shoot so well?

“Lin Shu, stand up!”

Old Hei walked up to Lin Shu and asked in shock, curiosity, and disbelief, “Have you shoot before?”

“Report, I haven’t.” Lin Shu stood up and replied calmly,

“You haven’t?” Old Hei was even more shocked, his voice rising, “Is this your first time shooting?”

“Yes.”

‘He’s… A natural shooter!’

Old Hei couldn’t help but think so. He looked deeply at Lin Shu. This was a good seedling for a sharpshooter! The Gods didn’t just give food to this kid. The Gods literally forced the food down his throat! However, when he thought of Lin Shu’s physical performance and his personality, he couldn’t help but sigh. What a pity!!

If Lin Shu’s physical fitness improved a little more… He didn’t have to be too outstanding to be able to enter the Sharpshooter division.

Old Hei shook his head. There was only a week left. It was too late. He sighed with a complicated feeling.

“Get in line!” He ordered

“Yes, Sir!” Lin Shu could guess what Old Hei was thinking.

He was very helpless. The original owner had left behind a pile of mess that he needed to clean up. The biggest problem in front of him now was his physical fitness.

Fortunately, the system was here to help!

Even if he can’t enter the sharpshooter division, he won’t be returning home to raise pigs in a barn. At the very least, he had to be in an infantry division… Lin Shu secretly set a goal for himself.

Just like that, in the recruit’s first target practice, Lin Shu deserved to be the first in the entire force!

Because of Lin Shu’s excellent result, He Chenguang didn’t get too much praise from Old Hei. This made He Chenguang secretly relieved!

After all, it was too difficult to connect with other people when they all were intimidated by excellent scores. Even He Chenguang could not do it.

If Old Hei praised him again, He Chenguang would only feel guilty.

For a moment, He Chenguang, the son of a military family, who was ranked among the top in physical fitness, shooting, and combat, had a strong curiosity and interest in Lin Shu, the cowardly soldier, for the first time. It raised his battle intent!

After the shooting ended, the instructor gave a routine speech to comfort the recruits who did not do well. During dinner, Li Erniu even went to the kitchen to help cook. The pickled fish he made was full of praise from his brothers.

Lin Shu had no choice but to admit that Li Erniu’s second-grade chef certificate was not for nothing.

During the meal break, the recruits discussed Lin Shu’s dazzling shooting results the most. However, they suddenly realized that Lin Shu had gone somewhere.

….

At this moment, Lin Shu had already arrived at a place where no one was around and was studying the [Strongest Individual Soldier System].

He opened the system with his mind, and what greeted his eyes was a virtual screen that only he could see. On it was his personal panel.

[Host: Lin Shu]

[Class: Soldier (Recruit)]

[Level: 1 (0/100)]

[Constitution Strength: 0.88]

[Willpower: 0.02]

[Battle Awareness: 2]

(Note: Constitution Strength, Will Strength, and Battle Awareness are all 1 for ordinary people. They will fluctuate depending on the Constitution.)

[Skill: S-rank Rifle Proficiency]

[EXP: 120 (Current EXP met upgrade requirements, yes/no upgrade?]）

… After looking at the values on the interface, Lin Shu couldn’t help but curse,

“F*ck, your physique and willpower are so weak, but your combat awareness is quite high? So the original owner was a mountain cannon who didn’t care about anything and would do anything if there was a disagreement?!”

The higher one’s combat awareness was, the better that person would be. It had to match one’s own strength. Knowing that one was a piece of scrap metal and the other was a king, wouldn’t one be a fool if they continue fighting?

Lin Shu smiled bitterly and chose to level up.

When the interface showed a “2”, the system notification sounded in his ears again.

Ding!

[Congratulations to the host for reaching Level 2. You may choose one of the following rewards:]

[Reward 1: Skill-Beginner Hand-to-Hand Combat. After selection, the host can master basic combat techniques. This skill requires the support of one’s physical fitness!]

[Reward 2: Skill-Eagle Sight and Snake Movement. After selection, the host’s vision will be enhanced, eyes will be bright, and body will be as agile as an elf!]

[Reward 3: Any attribute point +1. After selection, one of the three attributes, Constitution Strength, Will Power, and Battle Awareness, will be increased by 1 point!]

Lin Shu was a little conflicted when he saw these three options.

Beginner Hand-to-Hand Combat was the first skill he decided to drop. It was not very useful to him. The problem lies between reward 2 and reward 3. He really wanted both of them!

Eagle Sight and Snake Movement was undoubtedly a very powerful skill, but… Lin Shu hesitated for a moment before choosing the reward 3.

There was no other reason. This was the most suitable skill for him at the moment. Although Eagle Eye and Snake Movement would be very useful to his gun-shooting talent, the recruit assessment was coming up soon. If he could not even pass this test, he would be assigned to the farm to raise pigs. No matter how awesome his skill was, there won’t be a chance for him to use it!
