Chapter 933: 575. Through Mountains and Rivers
Xiao Qi led all the team members downstairs without any hesitation, as there were still other building owners waiting there.
When they reached downstairs, Xiao Qi said to one of the owners, "It’s all settled. They’ve all been tied with restraining straps. The rest is up to you. Please take care of it."
The owner, excited, replied, "Don’t say that. We should be thanking you. We’ve been eagerly looking forward to your arrival these past days."
Xiao Qi smiled, "You can start the infrastructure renovation tomorrow. However, there are quite a few residential buildings that need renovation this time, so we’ll take it slow."
"No problem, no problem," the owner excitedly rubbed his hands.
When Xiao Qi led his people to the next battlefield, this owner called others to head to the ninth floor. They lifted the gang members, who were bound hand and foot, to the Big Pendulum Building.
That was where the labor reform facility had been set up.
The members of the Parents’ Meeting were too few in number, so they wanted to employ blitzkrieg tactics, capturing one stronghold after another, then transferring those subdued gang members, though manpower was indeed tight.
It would’ve been a pity to kill them all, as not everyone in the gangs deserved death.
So, in order to leverage the power of over a hundred cultivators to upend the Ninth District, they had to rely on the people’s strength.
The building owners definitely couldn’t fight, but helping to transport gang members who were no longer combat-capable wasn’t much of a problem.
Tonight, the battle was carried out with everyone having their own roles, progressing in full swing.
Luo Wanya stood calmly in the command center, though excited at heart. He watched as building after building on the holographic map turned from black to red.
Zhang Qinghuan was beside him, his excitement clearly written on his face. He witnessed with his own eyes that, in just one hour, a quarter of the Ninth District’s territory had been taken.
At this time, a few more people walked into the command center. Zhang Qinghuan was taken aback, "Weren’t they the lackeys of the Black Water Gang and Big Pendulum Group? Why are they all here?"
Those people greeted Luo Wanya politely, saying, "Black Family Member."
Luo Wanya smiled, "Go ahead. This time, you will take over those territories. Remember, you are the new bosses of the Black Water Gang and Big Pendulum Group."
The family members smiled and said, "We understand. We’ll also handle the connection with PCE."
"Mmm, this way no one will notice us," Luo Wanya nodded. "Go on, and remember, the reason you’re entrusted with such important duties is that you haven’t committed too many bad deeds in the past. Going forward, remember our discipline. Also, be sure to attend team-building sessions every week."
The arts group remained silent these past few days, not because Luo Wanya was reluctant to seize territory, but because he needed time to prepare everything.
The PCE wouldn’t allow too many big gangs like Dragon Pattern in the Lower Districts. They preferred hundreds of gangs fighting each other, so if anything happened, it would only cause minor troubles, not major issues.
So, to avoid attracting PCE’s attention, there had to be someone in the city drawing attention away, as well as someone acting as if nothing had happened here.
The city still had the Black Water, Arts, Big Pendulum, and I Want to Buy a Watch gangs, but the Parents’ Meeting would rise above all of them, hidden in the clouds. All the core members of these gangs would be members of the Parents’ Meeting.
This scene left Zhang Qinghuan dumbfounded, as the preparations Luo Wanya had made these past few days all erupted tonight.
He looked at the people going to take over territories, stunned for a while, "Lao Luo, I want to ask something, is Qing Chen the boss in City 22, and is the chaos in the city tonight caused by him? But since he is with the consortium, why is he making such preparations to overturn the rules when he himself is the rule, and also a beneficiary of the rule?"
Why would His Majesty rebel?
This was Zhang Qinghuan’s biggest doubt in his heart.
Luo Wanya gave Zhang Qinghuan a deep look, "You’ll know one day."
"Will he be in danger tonight?" Zhang Qinghuan asked.
"I don’t know."
...
...
Jindai Yunlo looked at Xu Linsen in front of him, and Jiang Mubei on the left.
His five major Shikigami, Bone Woman, Ma Mian Luo Cha, Shiki Hori, Tian Jingxia, and Bai Rongyi, surrounded him protectively.
"The Spades A resorts to assassination, may I ask, what grudge do we have between us?" Jindai Yunlo gave a bitter smile.
He was just drinking peacefully, indifferent to the world, but suddenly, as soon as he stepped out, someone came up and punched him.
The punch Xu Linsen just threw looked fierce and felt even fiercer. The people in the Great Snow Mountain Fire Pit are all brutish, whether practicing knife or fist, they take the most direct and vigorous approach, straightforwardly.
As the saying goes, once the thought arises, nothing can stand in the way, this is the cultivation essence of the Fire Pit.
However, there is a flaw in the Fire Pit’s cultivation legacy, which is that one must not lose, or to be precise, one’s Dao heart must not be damaged.
The once most formidable Grand Elder, claimed to be unrivaled in the same rank.
But alas, he met Uncle Li, and the cultivation essence of ’once the thought arises, nothing can stand in the way’ confronted an insurmountable, unbreakable human peak.
So the Grand Elder’s cultivation came to a halt.
It was said that the Grand Elder of the Fire Pit was once the closest to becoming a demigod, maybe just a step away.
But he ran into Uncle Li, and so his Dao heart broke...
And thus, the Grand Elder’s catchphrase became ’unlucky’.
At this moment, Jindai Yunlo seemed to think of something and looked towards the Black Swan Restaurant, where ’Chen Sui’ should have been sitting but was now nowhere to be found.
Xu Linsen also glanced with some thought, but he didn’t think much of it. He knew that the arts group was waiting for a trigger, and that this ’trigger’ couldn’t be too short in time.
"A-Class against A-Class, tonight, if we fight, it will surely be dramatic," Jindai Yunlo said unhurriedly, "You, as a well-known A-Class expert, should understand the principle that kings do not meet kings, so why take the risk?"
"You’ll find out by trying," Xu Linsen once again rushed closer, leaping high to punch Ma Mian Luo Cha in the face, sending the several meters tall Ma Mian Luo Cha rolling back more than ten meters.
But just after this punch, Bone Woman’s blade also directly aimed at Xu Linsen’s vital parts, as Shikigami battles are never isolated; striking one usually results in a chain reaction.
Jindai Yunlo stood on the long street, looking at the freshly fallen goose feather snow with a sigh, "I come every day to boost your sales, yet you lure people to kill me..."
The rumbling sound echoed, the street roads on both sides were engulfed in battle, rows of buildings were beaten into ruins.
The splendid holographic neon also became dilapidated, and the holographic dancer in front of the bar, damaged in the projection equipment, froze and flickered in place.
...
...
Outside the long street, more than a hundred vehicles had completely sealed off the area, Jindai Yunhe stood quietly outside the street, resting with his eyes closed.
An officer asked, "Commander, do you want to support Commander Jindai Yunlo?"
Jindai Yunhe didn’t even open his eyes: "Wait a bit longer."
The officers looked troubled. They knew that Jindai Yunhe and Jindai Yunlo had been at odds for a long time, and Jindai Yunhe wanted to use someone else’s hand to kill that Yunlo officer.
Jindai Yunhe might not care about such matters, but later on, when questioned, they would hardly escape blame.
After all, Jindai Yunlo was an A-Class expert, a strategic resource of the consortium. No one wanted to see such a loss, not even the Ten Eunuch who disliked Jindai Yunlo, wishing he wouldn’t be killed just like that.
However, without Jindai Yunhe’s orders, none of them dared to take action.
At this moment, Qing Chen was running quickly in the street, heading in the opposite direction of the battlefield.
Arrived.
He walked into a building in the Fourth District, taking the elevator all the way to the top floor as it ascended into the sky.
Upon reaching the rooftop, Qing Chen flipped himself onto the rooftop.
Manifested the black sniper, lay down, and looked at Jindai Yunhe in the scope like a little black dot.
From the beginning, Qing Chen never planned to kill Jindai Yunlo with Xu Linsen. Compared to that Jindai Yunlo, who was improving his own performance every day, he wanted to kill Jindai Yunhe even more.
He thought, at some point, Jindai Yunlo being alive might cause even more trouble for the Jindai Consortium.
Jindai Yunlo’s ambition was too great. The now rigidly stratified Jindai could not contain the ambition of this ambitious person.
Qing Chen was adjusting his breathing on the rooftop.
He knew that at this very moment, within a 2600-meter radius centered on the battlefield, all the tall buildings were already ambushed by experts.
He was using Xu Linsen and Jindai Yunlo to lure Jindai Yunhe, and Jindai Yunhe was also using himself to lure him.
This was psychological warfare; for someone as cautious as Jindai Yunhe to suddenly stand still in a sniper’s sight, there must be a reason.
The world knew that 2200-2600 meters was the Daytime Boss’s maximum shooting range, but Jindai Yunhe, being naturally cautious, might expand the ambush range by another 200 meters.
So Qing Chen chose 2900 meters.
But the problem was, 2900 meters was the ground distance; after climbing to the top of the building, he would overlook the ground.
The building’s height was 1100 meters, with the ground distance being 2900 meters.
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the formula for the hypotenuse length of a right triangle: a squared + b squared = c squared.
The hypotenuse length, which is the shooting distance, was 3101.6 meters.
This was a distance that Qing Chen had never attempted before.
Breathe.
Below his thin nostrils, thin white mist exhaled out, merging with the falling snow from the sky.
In snowy weather, the visual environment is poor, but many people are unaware that there is usually no strong wind during the city’s snow season.
As if all the wind had blown before the snow began to fall.
Qing Chen looked at the fluttering wine banners on the street and calculated silently.
Wind speed 15.
Ambient temperature -5.
Ballistic trajectory drops from an altitude of 1100 meters to an altitude of 133 meters, with a vertical height of 29 meters.
This shot would definitely not be easy.
At this time, Qing Chen was at an altitude of 1100 meters, while Jindai Yunhe was on the ground at an altitude of 133 meters.
Even if the two maintained the same altitude level, to have the bullet travel across 3100 meters, the muzzle had to be aimed upward, with the bullet first climbing 29 meters, then descending in a parabolic trajectory.
The bullet’s trajectory was no longer a straight line; this was the reason for the parabolic vertical height of 29 meters.
And now, with him and Jindai Yunhe on the same horizontal line, this made the ballistic calculation undoubtedly more challenging.
Qing Chen’s eyes seemed to merge with the world.
Breathe.
The past is gone.
The future has arrived.
The best time is now!
Pull the trigger.
At that moment, after a brief recoil of the gun chamber, the rotating structure inside the gun body converted part of the recoil energy into new energy.
Unleashing all its power.
A SLAP Type Shell-breaking Armor-piercing Bullet spun out, leaving the gun chamber at an initial speed of 1040 meters per second, carrying a 24-gram tungsten alloy armor-piercing core, flying a supersonic 1900 meters before the speed began to slowly decrease.
Qing Chen got up and left without taking another look.
The person hit wouldn’t hear the gunshot for a few seconds.
In fact, Qing Chen wasn’t entirely confident in this shot, but he only had one chance, so he didn’t use tracer bullets to indicate the bullet’s trajectory.
But none of that mattered anymore; the rest was left to fate.
The bullet pierced through midnight, through falling snow, through the raging fire of daytime and the Parents’ Meeting.
Piercing through mountains and rivers.
The bullet flew through the air for more than three seconds, finally descending in an absolutely beautiful parabola.
With a bang, blood burst out from Jindai Yunhe’s thigh suddenly, but most of the kinetic energy was already consumed during flight, insufficient to cause fatal harm to an A-Class expert.
However.
For an instant, the tungsten core inside the bullet broke through the body, using all remaining energy to shatter the femur in Jindai Yunhe’s thigh!
Jindai Yunhe roared: "Where’s the sniper?!"
