Capítulo 16: Sharpshooter Competition
After a brief conversation, neither side took further action. Instead, they watched Akame and the others begin their training. Lin Ye and his team were very interested, setting up cameras and telescopes to observe and record.
This was all valuable information!
Seeing them continuously train on the practice field, Lin Ye was also inwardly surprised.
Regarding the use of cold weapons, although the requirements were not high, basically, except for daggers and spikes, other weapons were not used. But seeing Night Raid's current training situation, he felt awe.
At least he and the others were 10% behind in terms of cold weapons. But the world has its own ways.
Although the rise of thermal weapons was an unavoidable trend in their world, and in this world, there were also emerging weapons for long-range attacks, their numbers were not many, or their value in large-scale warfare had not been recognized.
Or maybe the existence of Teigu directly hindered progress in this area.
However, the speed, jumping power, and arm strength that exceeded the human body's limits were the combat power possessed by the strong individuals in this world!
From the perspective of close combat alone, none of the ten special soldiers could be a match for Akame, and Esdeath, known as the strongest existence, was even more impossible.
After glancing at Lin Ye, Akame put down her katana and walked towards him. At this moment, the people from China were very interested in their training.
To understand their combat effectiveness, a competition was the best choice. And since this was not a life-and-death duel, Akame was confident the other party would agree.
"Compete with me?" Akame said, staring directly at Lin Ye.
"Me…" Lin Ye pointed to himself, then shook his head, "I don't know how to use a sword."
"Our combat philosophy is if we can kill you from a hundred meters away, we won't get within one meter."
Akame frowned, not knowing what to say next. Clearly, Lin Ye's answer surprised her. Could someone who didn't know how to use a sword be considered a soldier?
In other words, most Chinese soldiers used firearms. Although armed comrades had great advantages at long range, it would be disastrous if approached. Moreover, using firearms meant ammunition would always run out, and the cost of ammunition was significant, unlike swords, which required minimal maintenance costs.
"Then compare with me!"
Mine had already set her sights on Lin Ye but didn't know how to speak up. Now that Akame had invited sparring, she naturally didn't want to miss it.
"Better than shooting from a distance." Lin Ye nodded, thinking it over, but there was nothing wrong with this.
Pumpkin didn't shoot lasers but shockwaves. Compared to sniper bullets, it had some advantages but also obvious disadvantages. After all, Teigu relied on the user's mental strength, which placed a heavy burden on them.
Mine's last attack on General Budo, although she delivered the strongest strike, left her exhausted and ended her life.
But there was no need to worry about sniper bullets. Of course, the mortality rate caused could not fluctuate as much as Pumpkin.
However, in reality, only mass-produced, reliable, durable, and universally usable weapons were the best on the battlefield. Especially since Lin Ye was responsible for logistics in this operation. The team's weapons and ammunition were virtually unlimited. On the previous return trip, Lin Ye received news that two fighter jets would be dispatched. Now three members of the special operations team had gone to the nearest highest peak to find a suitable nearby location.
Of course, the final location for establishing the base had not been determined yet.
The country had money but couldn't build bases everywhere.
Bullat was also enthusiastic and personally ready to help them find a location.
"Akame, tell me what you want if I win. The same for you."
Whether Lin Ye agreed or not, Mine spoke directly.
If Lin Ye really disagreed, she could use a provoking method later!
She didn't believe the other party wouldn't fall into the trap.
"Meat!"
Akame glanced at Lin Ye and uttered just one word from her red lips.
"I know, do you hear me? If I win, prepare your meat for me!"
"Then what if I win! I'm not as good as a professional sharpshooter, but I have received professional training and have a talent in this area."
"Win, how could you…"
Mine with her hands on her hips and Pumpkin on her back, sneered. She was a shooting genius; how could she lose to the person in front of her who clearly looked like a novice?
"If I win, just kiss me!"
Lin Ye pointed to his cheek with a smile on his face. He wanted to tease the tsundere girl.
Otherwise, being looked down upon wasn't good.
"Of course, you could lend me Pumpkin for a few days."
The structure of Extase wasn't complicated. If its parts were removed, researchers could study it for a certain period. However, Pumpkin's structure was indeed somewhat complicated. Currently, China was really embarrassed. In normal conventional warfare, even the entire empire and combined revolutionary armies could occupy this country with minimal losses.
But... Once unreasonable existences like Teigu users appeared, many aspects of planning had to be very cautious. After all, Lin Ye didn't want to see his comrades die on this land.
Although they were prepared to sacrifice their lives for the country.
"Alright."
Mine showed her fangs and was very dissatisfied, but under Lin Ye's mocking expression, she nodded in agreement.
She wouldn't lose; Mine was very confident. Even in the previous contest, she clearly knew that among the twelve people, there was a shooting expert.
But her weapon was Teigu, incomparable to ordinary weapons, even though their weapons were much stronger than imperial weapons.
Moreover, after carefully examining Lin Ye from head to toe, Mine couldn't understand how this person could be considered a strong sniper.
It's just that... Lin Ye could only harbor doubts about Mine's vague answer in his heart.
What he wanted was Pumpkin. Of course, he and everyone at the institute had plans to win other Teigu. Currently, only Mine could get close. As for Incursio, Lin Ye was certainly interested. Besides its strong defense, the most valuable research aspect was the material that made its surface invisible.
If there were results from the research, optical camouflage combat uniforms could appear. If applied to fighter jets, coupled with a full version of stealth radar, infrared stealth, and three-in-one stealth, the airspace of any country would be like uninhabited territory.
Even so, the last two things were impossible at the moment. Optical stealth hadn't yet appeared.
But now, an opportunity had arisen.
