Chapter 55 - Gunner Senses

The topic took a turn when Gunner senses said, “Naturally, if there are martial senses, there are gunner senses.”

Gun King sighed quite emotionally when he looked at Qin Fen, “Your big brother, Qin Zhan, is the man who possessed the strongest gunner senses and martial senses I ever met. Unfortunately, he’s not too passionate about guns….”

Gun King paused at this point, thinking to himself before shaking his head, “It seems like he’s not too passionate about anything in particular. He’s fine with anything.”

Having heard about his older brother once more, especially praise from the tough-as-nails Gun King and Butcher, Qin Fen’s blood began to boil within his body.

He must not let his big brother’s reputation weaken because of him! Qin Fen made a resolution to himself. He would make others say, “Not bad! No wonder he’s Qin Zhan’s little brother,” at the very least.

Gun King tossed a gun over to Qin Fen and said, “Hit some targets at long-range.”

Qin Fen took the gun but was a bit hesitant as he looked at the Gun King.

“Relax! This is a good gun.”

After this assurance, Qin Fen lifted the gun and looked at the target in the distance. The target, twenty-five meters away, looked as if it were right before his eyes under his extraordinary eyesight.

With a pull of the trigger… Kachink….

“You just believed me!? You got pigs for brains!” Gun King was very displeased as he said, “Don’t you know to take the time to examine it yourself?”

Got played again? Qin Fen didn’t try defending himself. He looked at the gun in his hands and studied how to disassemble it so that he could properly find out the problem inside.

“You open it like this.” Gun King was holding a gun in his hand. With a light flick of his wrist, the intact Nighthawk T3 instantly turned into a pile of parts that fell onto the table.

Gun King pointed at the pile of parts that used to be a Nighthawk T3. He asked, extremely irresponsibly, “Understand yet?”

Qin Fen furrowed his brow in rapt attention. Around ten seconds passed before he gave a light flick of his wrist for the hand that held the gun. The scope of this flick was a slightly smaller than when Gun King had done it.

Clatter….

The gun in Qin Fen’s hands immediately turned into a pile of parts. They clanged and clattered as they dropped onto the table.

“….”

Gun King had quite a confident expression now, but it froze in place in an instant. He stared blankly at the pile of parts atop the table. Qin Fen had only seen Gun King demonstrate it once, yet he was able to completely understand how to dismantle a Nighthawk T3? Plus, the scope of the flick of his wrist was far more accurate!

“Motherfucker! The big brother is a beast! And the little brother is a monster as well!”

Gun King cursed to himself, but there was incomparable excitement on his face. “Kid! Look at these parts. Where lies the problem?”

Two perfectly identical guns were dismantled on two tables. Qin Fen carefully observed each and every component. For a rookie who had never touched a gun before, it was too difficult to clearly distinguish between them, but the Gun King acted as if it were naturally to do so.

“The things known as guns require more than just tough training.” Gun King smiled pleased, “One also needs to have talent. Otherwise, wouldn’t everyone who just trained hard in this world become gun kings? If you’re unable to find the problem, the most you can be is an expert at using guns. I have no interest in teaching such trash.”

“This one.” Qin Fen held the T3’s recoil spring guide rod, “This one has problems.”

“How interesting.” Gun King, who had climbed atop the table, jumped to the ground in a super cheery mood. He said, “Congratulations, kid! You passed the test. You’re qualified to be my disciple.”

“Oh,” Qin Fen nodded. His expression wasn’t really that of super excitement.

The expression caused Gun King to choke for a moment. It must be known that recruit boot camp had relied quite a bit on connections to bring him in. They wanted him point out the field of design skills. Those who were able to become his disciple could evoke so much emotions in others that they would faint on the spot. This was no exaggeration.

He was the Gun King! Known as the best shot of the Federation!

Though this was just a nickname, one could tell that he possessed true strength from it.

Qin Fen didn’t know of any gun kings, so naturally he wouldn’t be as excited as others would be.

“All right, all right! In any case, you brothers are freaks. This expression of yours is really in line with your Qin Family’s style.” Gun King rested his hands on the table and said, “Next, I will teach you how to assemble a gun. Though every gun is different, their general principle is still the same. That’s why they’re all called guns!”

Gun King’s style of explanation was blunt and could not be reasoned with, causing Qin Fen to gradually understand the personality of this master that was Gun King. And that was… Gun King was right about everything.

“Watch carefully!”

His voice just sounded out, and Gun King used both his hands to tell Qin Fen what it meant to be called Gun King!

Not only was Gun King fierce in shooting, he was fierce in everything about firearms. This was the only way he came to be known as Gun King!

In the blink of an eye, the disassembled gun was formed whole once more within Gun King’s hand.

In the instant the assembly of the gun was finished, Gun King casually lifted his hand and fired a few shots without even turning his body. The first crackle of a bullet rang by Qin Fen’s ear at a close distance.

The paper target was delivered through an automatic system. There weren’t any bullets at the bullseye. Instead, there was one bullet hole for each of the four corners of the paper target.

Each of the four bullet hole were at the exact same distance from each of the four corners!

“Stop looking, kid. Assemble the gun!”

Qin Fell into a moment of silence once more. He thought about every single action that Gun King had made when assembling the gun. Then when Qin Fen made his move, his speed wasn’t lacking when compared to Gun King!

As a martial artist, Qin Fen was sharp-sighted and deftly-handed. He possessed accurate application of strength and positioning. These were the most fundamental of fundamentals. Qin Fen didn’t dare to call himself the number one in the Federation in terms of fundamentals, but he was certainly an extremely outstanding figure. Plus there was the stimulation toward his entire body caused by fusing with the metal ball. His body had been inexplicably strengthened once more.

After the gun was fully assembled, Qin Fen turned around to look at the targets, letting out a series of shots. He didn’t have the skills like Gun King to hit a target without turning his head.

However, an extraordinary vision and a stable arm weren’t enough for him to strike all ten rings in series.

Gun King tossed him a magazine. “Shoot again.”

“Shoot again.”

“Shoot again.”

“Shoot again.”

Ten more rings gradually appeared. This lasted until the final series of gun shots were able to strike all ten rings. Only then did Gun King nod his head in satisfaction and ask, “Understand now?”

“Understood.” Qin Fen nodded, “The ballistic curve is more important than aiming.”

“Excellent.” Gun King stretched his body. “Indoor shooting and outdoor shooting are different. There is no wind in here. Outside, the environment will cause changes in the ballistic curves. Other than your monstrous older brother, those with talent still need to practice in regards to this. Toss away your gun. It’s fine for you to just remember today’s feeling. You can go eat now.”

————-

Practically all of the recruits had long-since fallen asleep from the high-intensity training.

In the middle of the night, Du Peng dragged his weary body back to the living quarters from the gravity chamber. He took a quick shower, collapsed into his bed, and fell straight asleep.

Excitement still permeated every inch of Qin Fen’s body. Butcher’s fighting style and Gun King’s guidance on guns gave him new directions of study.

One could kill people through martial arts. One could also kill people through aerial combat. Guns were created for the sake of killing more than the others!

Since all these things were created for the sake of killing people, and since one could comprehend martial arts within aerial combat, what were the possibilities with guns?
