Then all my cultivation as an immortal has been for nothing?

Chapter 14 "I Prefer Shooting"

After reloading, Wang Yi tried to aim at the bat—the gray-winged bat—but his machine gun fire didn't even graz its edge.

He decisively changed his strategy, abandoning aiming and instead firing at areas where monsters were densely packed, leaving the rest to probability.

If you shoot fast enough, you should be able to hit one or two targets.

One magazine was emptied immediately, and the pistol entered bolt hold-open mode.

Wang Yi immediately pressed the button, and the magazine slid out of the pistol.

He put the pistol down and began loading the magazine and bullets one by one.

He was a little anxious, after all, he didn't know when the free shooting would end, and the bat-filled markings on his arm were still very faint, and it was still a long time before they were fully visible.

Haste makes waste; Wang Yi lost his grip, and a bullet fell onto the table, rolling down the surface with a thud.

He hurriedly tried to stop it with his hand, but he was too slow, and the bullet rolled off the edge of the table.

Elsa stepped forward and swept the bullets up like kicking a shuttlecock with her tail, sending them flying towards Wang Yi.

Wang Yi couldn't catch it at first, but finally managed to press the bullet into his already bald suit.

"Your reaction time is terrible," Elsa exclaimed. "Do you sometimes slip and fall on flat ground? Should I get you some 'steady shoes' for kids? I see ads for them everywhere on the subway."

Wang Yi, shameless as ever, replied, "Okay, but I'm out of money. Master, please buy me a pair, I'll definitely wear them!"

"Oh, not bad, very healthy mindset." Elsa gave a thumbs up. "I thought you were going to get a red temperature, and then you started yelling and screaming."

Elsa's use of onomatopoeia made Wang Yi frown. He hadn't expected that this girl would say "gugu gaga" so naturally without any psychological burden.

If the two of them weren't currently positioned in a box, separated from the people next to them by a partition, everyone's attention would probably be focused on Elsa.

"Keep loading!" Elsa urged, adopting a mentor-like demeanor.

Wang Yi: "Could you help me load the bullets so I can concentrate on shooting?"

"No, reloading is also part of the training. If you master the reloading skill, you can reload a little if you run out of ammunition. When carrying out field missions, it is also very important to find an opening to reload the magazine."

Wang Yi could only continue loading bullets into the magazine. After finally filling it, he inserted the empty slide into the bolt hold-open pistol and clicked to reset the slide.

He then fired continuously at the densest part of the bat swarm.

The PPK pistol does have very low recoil, but Wang Yi's poor physical condition couldn't overcome it. After emptying two magazines, his hand was covered in red marks.

When he started loading the bullet for the third time, Wang Yi felt a stiffness in the joint at the base of his right index finger, probably from the shock of the rapid fire.

After loading the bullets, Wang Yi began firing again.

He kept repeating this process, occasionally glancing at the markings on his wrist while loading the bullets.

The battery percentage is still slowly filling up, with the three dots in the middle of a string of zeros remaining unchanged.

The icon obtained by shooting the Graywing Bat is in an ambiguous state; it seems to have become darker, but it's uncertain.

Wang Yi had no idea whether he had hit the Gray-winged Bat or not. All his shots at the lone bats missed, and while he was unleashing a hail of bullets at the swarm of bats, others were also firing their guns.

Wang Yi originally wanted to wait until everyone else was reloading before firing, so he could be sure he had hit the target. However, with nearly 30 people, each of them fired at a different pace, leaving no opening.

After what seemed like an unknown number of rounds, the PPK pistol suddenly clicked and clamped the spent cartridge case that was supposed to eject.

Before Wang Yi could react, he pulled the trigger again, but only heard a series of empty clicks.

Instructor Zhang seemed to have been waiting for this moment: "Troubleshoot immediately, then disassemble the firearm for cleaning and maintenance to prevent it from jamming again. This will allow you to review firearm disassembly and assembly!"

Wang Yi pulled the slide a few times, and the jammed cartridge case fell onto the table and bounced up.

Elsa grabbed it: "Here, let's keep this as a souvenir. This is the first time you've ever had a cartridge ejection jam. Legend has it that wearing this cartridge case brings good luck and reduces the chance of jamming by 30%!"

Wang Yi took the spent cartridge and put it in his pocket.

Elsa continued, "Later, when you get good materials, you can use this shell casing as a base to make accessories at the Gewusi and obtain various powerful effects. This is usually how a newbie gets their first magic weapon!"

As Wang Yi disassembled the pistol, he asked, "Are you one too?"

"No, my first magic weapon is called 'Inspiration Mushroom Guli Cross,' and it was made from my shed teeth."

As she spoke, Elsa drew a straight dagger, the blade seemingly gleaming with a chilling light. It seemed this was the 'Inspiration Mushroom Guru Crossing'.

What kind of name is this magical artifact? If a magical artifact has a spirit, what about its dignity? Have you considered this issue?
Wait!
Wang Yi looked at Elsa: "Your shed teeth?"

"Yes, we wolf-beastmen lose our teeth every now and then. The teeth that fall out are very good materials. I often hand them over to the Bureau of Geology to exchange for points. One tooth can be exchanged for 200 points!"

One tooth is worth a month's worth of my base points!
Wang Yi said to Elsa with utmost respect, "Master, my voice was too loud just now. When you lose your baby teeth, could you give me a few?"

"Hmph, we'll see how you do. But I probably won't be able to get my next baby tooth for another ten years."

That's fine.

Wang Yi focused intently on cleaning his sidearm. Five minutes later, he set the "reborn" gun aside, picked up the magazine, and continued loading bullets.

At this point, Wang Yi's fingers were severely depleted, and loading became difficult when the magazine was almost full—the magazine spring was already almost compressed to its limit.

Instructor Zhang: "If you find it difficult, you don't need to hold the gun down. Your physical condition is really poor. When you fired just now, I saw that you were about to lose control and the muzzle was rising. This is a PPK, a gun that is easy to shoot with one hand."

"If I were you, I would borrow the training machine like crazy, eat and sleep at the company, and practice day and night to improve my physique."

Elsa raised her right hand: "It's no use. The technique he's practicing now is the Nine Transformations Heavenly Record."

"What? Isn't this something powerful spellcasters usually practice to recover their energy for free? What use is it for a newbie to practice this?"

“I already said it was no use!” Elsa said.

Wang Yi glanced at the still-increasing charging reading, inserted the fully loaded magazine into the pistol, and pulled the slide to chamber a round—the slide of the newly assembled pistol was not in the bolt hold-open position, so he had to manually pull the slide to push the bullet into the chamber.

He started shooting again.

After that, Wang Yi jammed the gun three times, and each time he had to clean it up, he had to maintain the gun again.

Wang Yi reassembled the gun, and Instructor Zhang blew his whistle: "Alright, time's up! Today's basic firearms lesson is over. Pang Jianming, you have a CQC combat assessment tonight. Once you pass, you can finish all the pistol lessons and start the rifle lessons."

"However, you can't slack off on the pistol course review. I suggest practicing with two magazines every day at the range."

"Yes," Pang Jianming replied, his voice alone enough to conjure up an image of his arrogant demeanor.

Wang Yi ignored all of that. He unloaded all the bullets from the magazine and placed the empty magazine and pistol on the table in the berth, waiting for the instructor to inspect them.

While doing this, he glanced at the logo and could feel that it had indeed become much deeper and revealed more details.

It looks like a circular sign consisting of a bat and some incomprehensible text.

Since the mark was obtained by shooting down a bat-type monster, what exactly are those words?
I wonder how many more Graywing Bats I'll have to kill before this circular symbol can be fully revealed.

At this point, the instructor checked the gun and handed it to Wang Yi along with the empty magazine: "Because the training method you chose is too bad, I suggest you combine it with regular physical training to strengthen your physique."

“We have very professional instructors. Otherwise, if we played like this in PPK, the ordinary warriors in the company would laugh at us, especially since you are a cultivator.”

As he spoke, Instructor Zhang turned to Elsa and said, "Why did you let him choose such a training method! Take him to do physical training after dinner! Also, didn't he get some strength pills? Make sure he takes them!"

Elsa: "I think it might be dangerous to take the super pill right now, let's wait until next week."

Wang Yi then remembered that the contract the company gave him also mentioned that they would provide medicines such as "power pills".

He had never seen what the "power pills" looked like, but he vaguely remembered that they were sold near the Tianqiao area in the capital.

Since Elsa said we'll eat it next week, we'll talk about it then.

First, we need to find a way to kill more Gray-winged Bats.

Wang Yi: "If I borrow the shooting range, can the range release Graywing Bats as targets for me?"

"It costs points, but it's cheap—only 10 points for 10,000," Instructor Zhang said. "What, didn't you get enough? You probably can't tell which one you shot down yet, can you?"

It really doesn't.

But Wang Yi lied and said, "I can vaguely feel it, like a sixth sense telling me 'I got it' when I fire. I think I should practice more, maybe I can strengthen this 'feeling'."

Instructor Zhang and Elsa exchanged a glance, and the latter said, "That doesn't make sense. Your Nine Transformations Heavenly Record doesn't have any means to enhance perception."

Instructor Zhang: "I'm going to check the other people's guns. I'll leave the training of the apprentices to you."

After he finished speaking, he went to take up his spot in front of the other people.

Wang Yi clasped his hands together and said, "Please help me rent a shooting range. I want to practice shooting these bats more."

Elsa: "That's fine, it's only 10 points, but why?"

Wang Yi: "I think the training method can't be changed easily, so in order to gain combat power as soon as possible, I should work on my marksmanship."

All of the above is nonsense.

Elsa stared at Wang Yi's face for a second, then leaned closer and sniffed: "Hmm, you smell like you're lying. You wouldn't happen to—like shooting guns, would you!"

Wang Yi had thought he was about to lose control, but Elsa's sudden action stunned him. However, he quickly recovered and, mimicking Nicolas Cage's tone in "Lord of War," said, "I prefer shooting!"

Elsa: "Then I'll lend you ten points. You have to pay me back when you receive your points next month."

Oh, you have to pay it back!

mean!
