Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! - Chapter 395
Chapter 395: The Commotion On the Right
After Lu Yimei gave the instructions, Gu Qingjiu entered the mountain.
According to what Lu Yixin told her, she climbed up a messy path. This way, she could at least avoid meeting an opponent so quickly.
However, she chose to fight alone.
The reason being, she didn’t want to drag anyone down.
Lu Yimei had originally wanted to send someone to protect her, but she didn’t insist when she heard this reason.
The members of the National Defense University, however, took their own sweet time and didn’t appear anxious at all.
But they, too, didn’t go around in groups, and would at the most move around in pairs.
Entering together didn’t mean that they would be at an advantage. For once the group got too big, they would easily become a target and were much likelier to get hit.
The mountain was quiet with no one around.
With her fast speed, Gu Qingjiu climbed to a bush and hid there very quickly.
That bush was tall enough to conceal her entirely.
But she didn’t want to wait passively.
In order to eliminate others as quickly as possible, she had to take the initiative to find where the others were.
Generally speaking, the three military universities each had their own styles—the National Defense University folks would take the initiative to strike; the National Military University of China preferred to play defense; whilst Haihe Military University would strike whenever the opportunity presented itself.
Their styles were pretty average.
Gu Qingjiu grasped the gun in her palms, feeling nervous.
But more than that, she felt a sense of exhilaration.
Her heart was beating rapidly. As a newbie, although she wasn’t as calm and steady as the experienced folks, she might have an advantage that others didn’t possess.
Gu Qingjiu could tell if she based it on Lu Yixin’s performance this afternoon.
For a rapidly moving prey, Lu Yixin would only dare to fire a shot after assessing its movements and speed, and even then she might not necessarily hit the target.
Although humans didn’t move at great speeds, their minds were nimble. Once a person detects that someone was aiming at them, the shooter might still miss the target.
But…
Her intuition was scarily accurate.
So long as that object had a sufficient surface area, she felt certain she could hit it regardless of how fast it moved.
Humans were more like a moving target.
She decided to regard them as moving targets and only aimed to hit the target, instead of shooting for the bullseye!
After waiting for a while, she heard Lu Yimei’s calm voice coming from the ear mic at a stipulated time. “The competition started. Go for it!”
The competition had started!
Gu Qingjiu held her gun firmly as she gazed calmly and sharply at the surrounding movements.
According to the rules, everyone had to go up to different paths and also maintain a certain distance.
This was why Gu Qingjiu knew that no one was following her then. But even so, it didn’t mean that it would always remain that way.
Should she stay where she was, or should she take the initiative to attack?
She pondered.
Other than the chirping of birds, only an occasional sound made by an unknown animal was heard in the surroundings.
It was so quiet that Gu Qingjiu could hear her own breathing.
At that moment, her senses were amplified manifold, and everything in her surroundings seemed to have enlarged.
There were soft ‘sha sha’ sounds coming from somewhere nearby…
Someone was coming!
Gu Qingjiu narrowed her eyes.
No matter how cautious one was, a certain sound would be made when one stepped on the soil, grass, and leaves on the mountain forest.
It was a very soft sound, so soft that one wouldn’t detect if they didn’t pay close attention.
But Gu Qingjiu heard it.
She remained squatted where she was and didn’t move, but the gun in her hand was now raised to a certain height through the bush.
Even when turning her head, she did so cautiously. She listened attentively and felt that at that moment, her mind and her body had fallen completely silent.
That ‘sha sha’ sound seemed to magnify suddenly!
On the right!
