Chapter 738 - An Impossible Shot!
Chapter 738: An Impossible Shot!
Gu Qingjiu encountered Cruff!
Although the fact that Cruff didn’t fire a shot at the very first instant made the officials frown…
Seeing this fated duel about to take place, all the officials were quite worked up.
It would be nearly impossible for Yin Ruoyi to escape the fate of being eliminated. Then would Gu Qingjiu be able to finish off Cruff? Or would Cruff take down a double kill and successfully trample China into the dust?
Of course, judging from the current situation, it didn’t seem too likely for Cruff to eliminate Gu Qingjiu in such a place.
But it was almost certain that Yin Ruoyi would be eliminated.
As she stood there, even if she dared speak out and alert Yin Ruoyi, the latter definitely wouldn’t be quick enough to dodge Cruff’s bullet also.
Instead, it would affect Yin Ruoyi’s judgment.
Through the cracks in the forest not far away, Gu Qingjiu spotted Yin Ruoyi seated under a tree by the river at first glance too.
Gu Qingjiu could right away sense that Yin Ruoyi’s expression wasn’t too good.
But, for some reason, she had a premonition that made her suddenly lookup.
And she saw Cruff lying on the peak of the mountain opposite.
Her countenance changed, and she immediately figured out the situation.
Yin Ruoyi was in danger.
She was already standing here, but Yin Ruoyi hadn’t even noticed her. Much less would he notice Cruff?
Cruff revealed a derisive smirk at Gu Qingjiu.
Though his gun was aimed at Yin Ruoyi, his eyes were staring straight at Gu Qingjiu.
Gu Qingjiu subconsciously aimed her gun at Cruff.
She knew very well that it was already too late.
Yin Ruoyi wouldn’t be able to dodge Cruff’s bullet. As for her, it was highly unlikely for her to finish off Cruff.
After all, Cruff was in an exceedingly good position.
That was the path Gu Qingjiu chose not to take earlier.
She had no idea how Cruff came to lie over there. But she knew that Cruff hadn’t gotten here that long ago.
In the entire valley, other than the occasional animal sounds that rang out, one nearly couldn’t hear anything.
Gu Qingjiu’s pupils were fixed upon Cruff. Although she was holding her gun as per normal, her heart was thumping furiously.
If Yin Ruoyi got eliminated, they would lose this competition!
She mustn’t lose!
She couldn’t let China lose this competition at her hands!
She couldn’t allow Cruff to win three consecutive times! Absolutely not!
“Qingjiu, you know what? The reason I think highly of you isn’t because of your extraordinary talent, but because you have this capability to achieve things other people can’t.”
“Other people might likewise have the same talent, but for you to achieve things other people aren’t capable of doing, that meant not many people can achieve such a thing.”
Elder Gong’s words rang in Gu Qingjiu’s mind at that moment.
She widened her eyes. Due to her nervousness, beads of perspiration slid from her hairline past her eyes.
Despite that uncomfortable sensation, she forced herself to hold herself back and didn’t dare to blink.
She knew that it was already too late. The only way out was for her to save Yin Ruoyi.
But how to save?
This was impossible!
But there was no such thing as impossible!
She aimed her gun straight at Cruff. Seeing the smirk on Cruff’s face, his high-up-in-the-air manner carried a hint of pity, as though his victory was already confirmed.
Bang!
Bang!
Two shots fired, breaking the tranquility of the valley.
Vibrating Yin Ruoyi’s nerves.
He could sense something wasn’t right the moment he looked up.
However, it was as though everything had vanished from his head.
Even the speed slowed down. However, he couldn’t escape.
He could only watch as a bullet fired at him rapidly from a spot not far away.
Bang! A deafening sound rang.
Next to him, a bullet flew towards him swiftly.
Two bullets collided right before his eyes, resulting in the explosion of splendid fireworks that he would never forget in this lifetime.
