Chapter 539: Man and Gun as One_2
Applause?
Nobody would applaud a "villain" who took second place by luck.
But…
The next moment, everyone froze.
Li Bing?
Second place is Li Bing?
Li Bing was also stunned, thinking he had misheard.
At just the right moment, the event manager spoke up with a reminder:
"Contestant Li Bing, please come to the stage to receive your second-place prize—a check for ten thousand yuan."
An uproar ensued!
What's going on? Li Bing is second place?
What's the event management up to?
"Are you blindly talking nonsense? Li Bing is clearly the champion!" Liu Daming shouted from the audience.
Li Bing was also a bit angry at this time, glaring at the event manager and questioning, "What do you mean by this?"
"Contestant Li Bing."
"There's no denying that your performance was indeed impressive!"
"But compared to contestant Ye Huan, you are just a 'tiny' bit behind!"
"The champion of this shooting competition is: contestant Ye Huan!"
"Contestant Ye Huan's shooting score is: 300 points, a perfect score!"
As soon as the event manager said this, there was another uproar in the crowd.
The audience looked at each other, not understanding, their eyes slightly widened. They clearly saw Ye Huan only hit ten points; how did it become 300 points?
Li Bing was also taken aback.
Coming back to his senses, he widened his eyes in anger and questioned, "We saw with our own eyes, Ye Huan clearly only hit ten rings on the first shot, and all subsequent shots missed the target. Why are you falsely claiming he scored 300 rings?"
"Contestant Li Bing, I can't believe it myself."
"But to prevent cheating and ensure fairness and justice in the competition, our event management set up two monitors."
"One monitoring the contestant's shooting, and the other monitoring the target."
"Look at this surveillance video!"
As the event manager spoke, he gestured to the backstage.
Two staff members carried an electronic screen to the stage, showing two videos simultaneously on the screen.
The left side was the surveillance footage of Ye Huan shooting, and the right side was the footage of the target.
"Bang!"
After the first gunshot, a bullet hole appeared at the center of the ten rings on the target.
For the subsequent gunshots, no other bullet holes appeared on the target!
"Isn't this a missed target?" Li Bing questioned.
The event manager responded calmly, "We'll now enter the slow-motion segment of the video, please hold on."
Two minutes later, including Li Bing, everyone's faces on the scene were filled with shock!
After sixteen times slow motion, they finally saw clearly.
Every subsequent shot fired by Ye Huan didn't leave a new hole on the target, not because they missed, but because each bullet precisely passed through the first, and only, bullet hole on the target!
This means every trajectory of his 30 bullets was identical, with no deviation!
But… how is this possible!
The maximum range of a 95 rifle is 500 meters. Beyond that, the projectile is extremely difficult to control, even for Li Bing. After shooting, the ten-ring circle on the target becomes riddled with holes.
Yet Ye Huan shot an 800-meter target, making every bullet trajectory identical, achieving a perfect score, with only one bullet hole at the center of the ten rings on the target?
This is like using an aim-bot!
No, even an aim-bot couldn't be this accurate!
The audience's faces were filled with intense shock.
Including Li Bing and Pa Da Xing in the scene, all the experts' expressions drastically changed!
Human-gun unity!
As experts in the shooting field, they know that making all bullets coincide is the highest state of shooting—human-gun unity!
Li Bing and Pa Da Xing's faces turned purple!
How can this be possible!
Human-gun unity is a realm that countless shooting experts strive for their entire lives but can't attain, a realm they desperately pursue but cannot enter!
None of Huaxia's level seven shooters can reach this level!
Li Bing hasn't even touched the threshold!
Pa Da Xing, as a level six shooter, doesn't even dare to dream of reaching that realm!
Masters who can enter that realm can easily defeat all level seven shooters in a minute!
Ye Huan?
This guy they looked down upon?
Wasn't it luck that brought this guy to second place?
Why, why can he make all bullet trajectories coincide, reaching the realm of human-gun unity!?
Why!?
Furthermore, was Ye Huan deliberately controlling his scores in the earlier matches to keep a low profile, winning by just one ring each time?
Only when Li Bing scored a perfect ring at 800 meters did he have to stop keeping a low profile, thus revealing his true skills?
Li Bing and Pa Da Xing's faces showed an expression of disbelief!
"Impossible!"
"I think this video is fake, made by the event management!"
"How could Ye Huan's shooting skills surpass Li Bing's? I bet you guys set up a conspiracy, intentionally faked a video, and then gave the championship to Ye Huan!"
"As for your motives, they're easy to guess!"
"You just used 'Pink Lover' as an attractive gimmick and didn't intend to really give it as a championship prize!"
While countless people were confounded and shocked.
Liu Daming, with his beer belly, pointed at the event manager and scolded him loudly. He didn't understand what human-gun unity meant.
But he could see that Ye Huan's marksmanship in the video was much superior to Li Bing's, yet he couldn't believe Ye Huan could be this good.
As soon as he spoke, Li Bing, Pa Da Xing, and other experts instantly realized.
Yes, videos can be fabricated!
Even if it killed them, they wouldn't believe Ye Huan, who reached the finals by luck, could reach the shooting realm of human-gun unity!
"Your amusement park is engaging in false advertising. I'm going to sue you!" Li Bing angrily reprimanded!
The event manager was extremely anxious.
Reporters below were broadcasting the live scene. If Li Bing was allowed to speak freely, letting people think Disneyland was conspiring in the dark, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The event manager hurriedly said, "Contestant Li Bing, our amusement park always operates with integrity, and would never resort to such dirty tactics!"
"Then how do you explain Ye Huan's exceptional marksmanship? We don't believe he could have such skills!"
"Unless the event management has him redo the target shooting in front of us to prove himself."
Li Bing said.
"Yes, let him prove it!" countless experts echoed.
"Contestant Ye Huan, may I ask…" The event manager looked towards the back of the crowd, reluctantly saying, "May I ask if you can shoot the target once more?"
Everyone turned their eyes toward the back of the crowd.
Only to see a man and a woman walking over.
Ye Huan and Lilith.
"Shoot the target?" Ye Huan frowned.
He had already shot a target "without keeping a low profile" once, so doing it again didn't matter.
Ye Huan said nothing, without even glancing at the target field, he raised his gun with his right hand and started firing towards the target field.
"Da. Da. Da."
After a series of shots…
"..."
The entire scene was silent!
This time, Li Bing and Pa Da Xing's eyes widened as large as eggs, their legs trembling!
The audience was deeply shocked!
They had just been intently staring at the target field!
They clearly saw every bullet ejected from Ye Huan's rifle precisely passed through the sole bullet hole on the target!
How is this possible!
The award ceremony platform was approximately 1,500 meters from the target, right?
With a 95 whose maximum shooting range is only 500 meters, how could it hit the target from 1,500 meters away, and every shot precisely hit the innermost circle of the ten rings, all without looking at the target!?
This isn't aim-assist!
This is an ancient soldier...
No, this is a Jurassic soldier!
At the side, Pa Da Xing couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes, but he had to believe it, as it was occurring right in front of him!
Thinking back to the words he said with resentment at the award ceremony…
Pa Da Xing only felt like a clown!
Luck?
Ye Huan's shooting prowess far exceeded the pinnacle level of the current world's shooting scene!
If it's a matter of strength, one would definitely be overwhelmingly crushed!
Li Bing was utterly dumbfounded, his whole being in disarray. The tiny character he had never seen as significant now showed shooting skills dozens, even hundreds of times superior to his own!
Recalling how he accepted media interviews as the "champion" after finishing his target shooting, expressing disdain and ridicule towards Ye Huan…
Dang it!
The clown turned out to be myself!
