Chapter 444: 438, Unique Temperament (Second Update)_1

The staff member looked at the two individuals beside them, Liu Erbao and Ren He, who were totally in different states.

Liu Erbao was a true novice, just like a stereotypical Chinese tourist: he was simply happy to hear the sound of gunfire, no matter what gun he used...

There was no need to worry about hitting the target; it was all about having a good time!

On the other hand, Ren He was very focused, but not in the same way as the other customers. He was busily switching between different firearms, managing to hit the target with almost every shot out of ten.

But he was changing guns way too fast!

However, Ren He was not satisfied with what he had achieved so far. He realized that he was only capable of hitting targets at 20 meters, which was the level that Basic Firearm Skills had brought him to.

In movies, Ren He always saw heroes performing miraculous feats of marksmanship. To be honest, he was quite envious. Having been given a second chance at life, he felt that not mastering this skill would be somewhat regrettable.

Even if he never used it in the future, just thinking about it would give him a sense of satisfaction as a man, like the feeling one gets from reading novels about former soldiers-turned-urban warriors, full of internal monologues...

Ren He thought it over and decided that since he had five Perfect Level rewards, why not use two of them to upgrade his firearm skills to Master Level? It seemed like a thrilling idea!

Choose! It’s worth it even if only for the potential dangers he might face in the future.

"The host has chosen a firearms skill direction reward, and the reward is Basic Firearm Maintenance Knowledge," said the Divine Punishment System in a bland tone.

Ren He almost dropped the gun in his hands!

Is this how it’s going to be again? Are you really going to waste my hard-earned Perfect Level reward like this?

Can’t you stop messing around? Can’t you ever just do it right?

The staff member, who was changing magazines with their tools, noticed that Ren He’s face suddenly darkened, and he suddenly became afraid that Ren He might fire at him...

Ren He took a deep breath, feeling extremely irritated by the Divine Punishment System’s antics. It was just too much how this system would randomly cause trouble!

Last time it was violin maintenance knowledge, and now it’s firearm maintenance knowledge. Next time he definitely needs to think more about his phrasing, maybe change "firearm skills" to "shooting skills"!

But there was also a good chance of getting something annoying—a possibility that the trouble-loving Divine Punishment System might grant him "water gun shooting skills."

And since his firearm skills were only at the Basic level, if he switched to shooting skills, the Divine Punishment System might make him start all over again from the Basic level.

He could only hope that the Divine Punishment System would draw the line at some point...

With a stern face, Ren He again chose to use one of his Perfect Level rewards, just like with the violin incident where he used two Perfect Level rewards.

After all, he still had four Perfect Level rewards left; wasting one wouldn’t be the end of the world. Moreover, firearm skills, a skillset that could control the life and death of others, might truly require him to pay a higher price to acquire, according to the Divine Punishment System.

"The host has chosen a firearms skill direction reward, and the reward is Advanced Level Firearm Maintenance Knowledge," stated the Divine Punishment System flatly.

Is there no justice left? Is there no justice left?!

It’s at the Advanced Level now?! Will you ever stop?! Last time with the violin, it was just one annoyance, but this is getting out of hand!

The more elusive something is, the more one wants it—Ren He became determined, left with only three Perfect Level rewards. He refused to believe that he couldn’t upgrade his firearm skills to Master Level!

"The host has chosen a firearms skill direction reward, and the reward is Advanced Level Firearm Skills," said the Divine Punishment System blandly.

"The host has chosen a firearms skill direction reward, and the reward is Master Firearms Skills," said the Divine Punishment System blandly.

Ren He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there was a limit to how much the Divine Punishment System could irritate him. Perhaps the system was mindful that he still held several Perfect Level rewards. However, without storing up some rewards, Ren He felt uneasy; facing real danger without a Perfect Level reward to create an unexpected surprise could mean the end for him.

Saving is still necessary, it’s just that one shouldn’t save too much.

A massive amount of information was forcibly infused into his mind, a sensation akin to having been reborn in a bloodbath amidst the flames of war.

This feeling was completely different from obtaining Master Level musical instrument skills!

The staff member saw Ren He standing there with a gun, the young man in front of him completely stunned.

Ren He felt as if he were reliving battles one after another in his mind, bullets firing round after round, seemingly endlessly into an abyss.

It was as if he were playing countless roles, experiencing each firearm, a marvelous sensation.

In a brief moment, Ren He felt as if he had lain in wait on a snowy mountain for a day and night, then pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle; a bullet spun out of the barrel with fiery speed towards a target 1.8 kilometers away.

That was the most violent form of beauty, like a brilliant flower blooming from the gun’s muzzle, tearing through the air with a thread of lethality between dawn and night.

The bullet arrives before the sound of the shot.

It was as though, in a rapid motion, bullets were firing into bodies one by one, and he could even hear the sound of the bullets tearing through human flesh, destroying organs and muscle fibers.

The sensation was terrifying, and Ren He was somewhat unsettled by it.

He knew this wasn’t truly himself, but he watched helplessly as firearms took lives.

Full windage, half windage, zero windage... concepts like these slowly congealed in Ren He’s mind into his own experiential skills.

When Ren He emerged from this state in an instant, he began to understand why the Divine Punishment System had made things so difficult for him; the moment a life vanished was like a grand voice sighing in the sky, a mournful lament.

Once firearms were involved, life was extinguished all too easily.

Ren He felt downcast, the discomfort still spreading within him; at that moment, he felt complex emotions as the firearms in his hands seemed like an extension of his body.

It was such a simple sensation, much like someone who types a lot knowing the location of each key on the keyboard even with their eyes closed.

He didn’t want to fire the gun anymore, but he also felt a need to vent something.

The staff member suddenly noticed a dramatic change come over Ren He, who picked up the heavy sniper rifle beside him, loaded it with practiced ease, and assumed the correct posture.

In a standing position, he actually pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle!

With each pull of the trigger, Ren He’s body trembled from the massive recoil, but the staff member noticed that although Ren He’s body shook, he remained steadfast.

What kind of physical condition was this?

It seemed... the staff member had once been fortunate enough to witness a certain unique aura on someone, and now it had reappeared.

shots! Five shots full of aesthetic beauty!

However, since the 12.7mm caliber bullet tore through the entire target paper with the first shot, no one knew what kind of score Ren He had achieved.

Moreover, for a sniper rifle, the 200-meter target distance Ren He had chosen held no reference value.

Yet that aura and temperament remained deeply etched in the staff member’s mind.

Ren He put down the gun and calmly said to Liu Erbao, "Let’s go, let’s head back."
