The bullet hit the target after traveling for two seconds. It felt as though you could hear the sound of the bullet hitting the skull, piercing it, and become embedded in the wall of the room.
The sniped target didn’t even know what had happened. He didn’t even hear the sniper rifle firing and the Grim Reaper had come for him.
“There’s one more target. We need to change our position.” Being an observer, V8 immediately opened his mouth after Ye Jian fired the first shot. He even started to move his body, preparing to change the sniper position quickly.
Everyone knew that once the first shot was fired, the sniper’s position would be blown. Even if the enemy didn’t know where the sniper was hiding, they would fire blindly in that general direction.
But Ye Jian did not do that. The other hidden al-Qaeda member appeared to be in shock and stopped firing for about five seconds. In just that short span of time, Ye Jian’s eyes flashed and she adjusted the sniper rifle slightly to the left and she continued with her second shot.
V8 watched Ye Jian tightly. She didn’t need any reminders and shot her second round… Damn, you can do that too!
The suppressed Pakistani government forces soldiers soon realized that the al-Qaeda members had encountered a sniper and had thought that the sniper was one of their own. After hearing that the bullets had stopped firing, they carefully fired their rifles in front, before advancing from the corner of the wall.
Until now, they didn’t know that the sniper was not sent by their government.
After sniping, Ye Jian didn’t feel any sense of accomplishment. There was a dark color in her black eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
After keeping her sniper rifle, she said to J5 as she was holding on to the barrel, “Without going through rigorous training, they wouldn’t have known if they had run into a sniper… Staying in one spot is enough to deal with two of them.”
“You’re bold. Dare to gamble.” V8 praised her sincerely and gave her a thumbs up. “I’m impressed, Ye Jian.”
For someone from the Special Forces to say that they were impressed was extremely rare.
Ye Jian, however, was not prideful. That was because V8 wasn’t a sniper. That was why he felt that it was incredible. If a sniper from the Xueyu unit saw that, ‘not bad’ was the best that she could get.
If it was Uncle Chen, he would only say ‘you’ve improved’.
That wasn’t bold or a gamble. It was self-confidence. With confidence, you could fire two shots continuously, one shot one kill. In a battlefield, the gravest mistake a sniper could make would be to make a ‘gamble’.
To make a ‘gamble’ was an uncertainty, and snipers needed to be precise and accurate.
After all, V8 didn’t know Ye Jian very well. In his heart, he was thinking about how the girl wasn’t frightened by her first battlefield experience. She was carrying guns and fighting together with these veterans.
Although he specialized in assault, he knew a thing or two about snipers after all these years. The only time when two consecutive shots were fired without changing positions was when the position was good and the targets were clear.
Just now, their position was only average, and it could be exposed with one shot. Firing the second round would mean providing the enemy with an opportunity. That was why he said that Ye Jian was bold and taking a gamble.
Xia Jinyuan didn’t say anything and waited until the two came down. “It wasn’t a gamble. It’s a calculation. She shot fast and the targets had no time to return fire.”
