Chapter 628: Chapter 28: Lin Xian’s Historical Revision_2 Chapter 628: Chapter 28: Lin Xian’s Historical Revision_2 He also needed to find his own way to survive, to breakthrough the deadlock!
That was the second reason why he decided to leave the country immediately—
[The second reason, the enemies had already come knocking on his door, he had to switch from defensive to offensive, and strike back!]
Lin Xian was certain that behind this time-space assassin, there must be someone directing him.
If not Kevin Walker’s faction, then Jask’s.
At the current stage,
the chances of Jask and the time-space assassin collaborating are significantly higher.
No wonder VV left Jask’s name on the TV with burn marks.
It seems, besides pointing out Jask as the one who killed it, there must be other intentions, some deeper meaning behind it.
both Kevin Walker and Jask were active abroad.
If he wanted to eliminate them, kill them, and break through the deadlock in both reality and the Dream World, he ultimately had to go abroad to find them, to face them.
Staying cooped up in Donghai City wouldn’t allow him to eliminate his enemies; since the enemies wouldn’t come to him willingly, he had to go look for them.
Luckily, he had Angelica, an enemy’s enemy, around.
Her goals partially overlapped with Lin Xian’s, as both had grudges against people from the Genius Club:
Angelica wanted to avenge Ji Xinshui and Ji Lin, especially to avenge Ji Lin and fulfill Ji Lin’s dying wish to find the murderer of his parents.
And he too had clear targets, wanting to kill Kevin Walker; he also wanted to take down the instigators behind the time-space assassin, likely Jask.
An enemy’s enemy is a friend.
Angelica thrived in Hollywood, with extensive contacts and strong capabilities.
Under the premise of having a common goal, she and Lin Xian could form a team, allies in combat.
In that regard, Lin Xian was confident.
Because he had the information Angelica wanted, the intelligence she desired to know.
He really liked people with strong action.
Now, as he was fighting alone, what he needed most was teammates who were forceful in action.
It would be even better if they were ruthless enough to get things done.
“It’s unexpected how unpredictable life is; I never thought I would end up cooperating with the Seven Sins one day.”
Thinking of this, Lin Xian couldn’t help but laugh.
The enemies were unexpected, and so were the teammates.
Lin Xian took a deep breath.
he gazed at the full moon hanging in the night sky outside the window and recalled what Huang Que once told him:
“If it’s right, continue; if it’s wrong, endure to the end, but being hesitant is unacceptable.”
He also felt now that, while ensuring safety and weighing the pros and cons, hesitancy was retreating, it was evading!
as long as he faced the difficulties!
This was also the third reason he decided to leave the country immediately, and the most important reason—
[The third reason, only by improving his own combat abilities could he have the capacity to protect himself and kill enemies.]
Lin Xian was just an ordinary flesh-and-blood human.
After witnessing the exaggerated physical qualities of the time-space assassin, he understood that he had no chance of confronting her head-on.
He armed himself with a gun!
Firearms, such kinetic weapons, are irresistible by any carbon-based life form on Earth.
Even if a tough old elephant came along, two hunting gun shots would bring it down.
The power of bullets is just so plain and simple, yet massively lethal.
The body of that time-space assassin was indeed enhanced, but a human body, no matter how strengthened, is not steel; the strength of skin tissue, muscle tissue, and human bones has its limits.
You might be able to take a beating a bit better, but definitely not as much as a steel plate;
Your bones might be harder, but definitely not as hard as a steel plate;
Your muscular strength might have more explosive power, but it definitely cannot compare to the kinetic energy of a bullet propelled by an instantaneous explosion of gunpowder.
This is an absolute fact.
When Lin Xian first encountered that female killer, the time-space assassin, he worried that she wasn’t akin to those super-robots from the “Terminator” movies coming from the future, right?
Those Terminator robots, models like T800, T1000, T3000, were truly terrifying, going beyond sci-fi and entering the realm of fantasy.
To be frank, the Terminator T800 robots portrayed by Schwarzenegger were within the scope of technology, basically alloy skeletons + batteries + chips.
But their invulnerability to knives and guns was indeed hard to deal with; killing them required a large hydraulic press or a steel furnace.
If that female time-space assassin had a similar configuration, then even acquiring a handgun would be futile for Lin Xian.
But the good news was, when the girl was flung out of the car due to brake inertia, her head was cracked open, and her arm was bleeding.
This indicated, fortunately among misfortunes, that she was still a being of flesh and blood!
Since falling from the car could crack open her skull and make her bleed, gun bullets definitely had the potential to kill her!
Not to mention, Lin Xian was absolutely confident about his gun skills.
Even if he and his opponent drew their guns at the same time, his quick-draw technique could shoot a bullet ahead of the enemy, achieving a perfect headshot 100% of the time.
This was the result of training at the brink of life and death for over a decade in the Dream World…
His skills and aiming were already ingrained in his nerves, forming a conditioned launch.
That’s why Lin Xian was adamant about getting a handgun for self-defense in Mi Country.
he would then possess the capability to confront the time-space assassin head-on!
Because of the Space-time Law, his advantage was incredibly significant.
He could freely shoot the time-space assassin, but the time-space assassin couldn’t kill him.
The situation was instantly reversed.
