Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 48 26. Shooting
What is the distance a normal person can jump after a running start?

The answer is six meters.

So how wide is this street?

It is estimated to be no less than eighteen meters.

So Carl was not trying to jump to the apartment building across the street. He was just inviting the sniper to take a shot in an unavoidable posture.

The shot that just detonated the grenade in mid-air.

Every sniper has his own set of shooting memories, which can be classified as muscle memory, or it can be called a conditioned reflex shooting method. It will be engraved into his bones during the practice stage. The more outstanding the sniper is, the more he has this kind of instinctive reaction. And obviously the person Carl is facing is such a sniper.

Even faster than the speed at which the artificial eye fed back to his brain, the sniper had already raised his gun and pulled the trigger at Carl.

The angle at which he raised the gun was exactly the same as the angle at which he detonated the grenade before.

When using a gun to hit a target at the same height, the height that the sniper raises his gun will not change. The grenade exploded when it was thrown to the third floor, so the place where Carl jumped was also the third floor.

Carl intentionally kept himself at about the same height as the grenade, and also slowed down his shooting speed.

Carl was more prepared than the sniper. If he wanted to shoot, he could shoot before the sniper. However, after shooting, at the moment his bullet hit the sniper, he would be hit by the cat in the sniper's hand at the same time. Carl didn't know whether the sniper would die or not at that time, but he was definitely dead. So what he did was another more risky thing.

The angle of the gun being raised is correct, and the muzzle is in exactly the same position.

Well, it’s confirmed.

The moment the Nekomata bullet was fired from the sniper's hand, Kenshin's bullet was already waiting for it in its path.

During the Battle of Gallipoli in 1916, a miracle occurred. Two bullets hit each other in the air and collided with each other. So what is the probability of this happening?

One in seven billion.

Carl knew he didn't have that kind of luck, so he chose to shoot at fixed targets.

The muzzle of a gun, whose height and angle have been determined and only needs to be verified with one's life, is just a fixed target.

For Carl, this is not one in seventy billion, but one in half.

Guess right, live; guess wrong, die.

It's that simple.

Fortunately, Carl's luck was pretty good half the time, and he always guessed right, but when facing a fixed target, Carl really couldn't think of any reason why he couldn't hit it.

One bullet intercepted the cat-matata bullet that was halfway out of the barrel, and the two bullets exploded in the barrel of the sniper rifle. The debris and shrapnel produced directly broke a scattered hole in the cat-matata that the sniper was holding, like a door horn, and then another bullet passed through the broken rifling and hit the sniper's head.

Sniper rifles are rarely designed to fire continuously. In the past, the reason was that the gunpowder remaining in the rifling would affect the accuracy of the shooting. Today, the reason is that continuous firing can easily cause damage to technical sniper rifles and cause accuracy deviations. This is even more true for sniper rifles like the Nekomata, which require frequent maintenance.

Unlike the technical sniper rifle Nekomata, the Kenshin in Carl's hand is a pistol that can fire continuously. The next bullet is already out of the chamber the moment the first bullet is fired.

"The head can't be as hard as the body."

With this thought in mind, Carl's body began to release the force.

When jumping from a height, you cannot roll directly, as this will not be able to bear the spine. The correct way is to
Recalling the instructions of the trauma team in Mewtwo, Carl landed on the balls of his feet and followed up with his heels. He then immediately leaned forward, relaxed his body, supported himself with his hands, bent his knees, and relied on the ground to respond to the force, and jumped naturally again.

After completing this series of actions, Carl successfully relieved most of the force of falling from a height, but he also felt that his body was in pain, but he couldn't stop. When Carl fell from a height, the attackers didn't react, or they handed Carl to the sniper, but after Carl landed safely, even the most slow-witted people realized that they should aim their guns at Carl.

People can't outrun bullets, or rather, Carl is not that capable at the moment, so he didn't even plan to run.

The attacker's gun is clearly Shingen's. Smart weapons are good, but they have a small flaw, which is that they have to lock onto the enemy before they can guide the shot.

His body rolled again and hid behind a car. Carl felt that he was becoming more and more proficient in rolling.

After clearing out the apartment building opposite, the place where he was hiding now had no attackers to point their guns at directly, but the vehicle as a cover would certainly not last long, so Carl used his last trick at this critical moment.

"Help!"

During the communication, Carl chose to ask for help from his companions.

And they did not disappoint Carl.

"Here I come, Carl."

Jack rushed out of the apartment where the sniper was, carrying a corpse.

"Jack Wells is here!"

he yelled, drawing the attacker's attention.

Jack is always the one who can stand at the front and help his partners attract fire, and he is the trustworthy one.

The moment he saw Jack, the attacker turned the gun towards Jack.

However, the bullets from the guns in their hands penetrated the body that Jack was holding and stayed on the surface of the subcutaneous armor.

Because smart pistols have such high technological content, more than half of the gun is made up of smart devices, leaving not much room for the gun itself. This results in poor penetration of its bullets. Although some smart pistols can bypass obstacles and hit enemies behind them after precise locking and guidance, they still do not have the ability to directly penetrate heavy defenses.

That said, Jack could hold out for a while.

The reason why it took a while was that it was a submachine gun after all, and with plenty of bullets, it would be no problem to tear Jack into pieces.

But there is more than just Jack.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine KK."

Mann actually rushed out holding a large stone with grooves on the surface as a shield. With the help of the two of them, the other mercenaries who had been suppressed by sniper rifles and dared not raise their heads also seized the opportunity and launched a counterattack against the attackers whose fire suppression had slowed down.

"Don't underestimate us. Do you really think you can be our opponent?"

After all, they are mercenaries who have fought in the blood and fire of the streets. They still have vision and they all realize that this is the best time to fight back.

"Without the suppression of rocket launchers and snipers, you rely on your smart weapons and want to compete with us. Do you think you are worthy?!"

On the streets, there is a buzzword that is half jealous and half true.

"Only a coward who can't even aim his gun would use a smart weapon to fight back."

Who would use smart weapons when they can use more powerful kinetic weapons and technological weapons?

　PS: When exchanging fire in the game, only Jack will not complain about your sudden attack, he will always rush to the front and help you attract fire. (Later on, maybe he should not be so brave, but if he does, Jack will not be Jack)
