Unrivaled Soldier in the City-Chapter 386: Between Life and Death
When Yang Wucheng's car emerged, the sniper perched on the rooftop instantly aimed at Yang Wucheng's head. Yang Wucheng, today I will kill you. The sniper from the Island Country muttered under his breath, lying in wait without firing immediately. He was waiting for the perfect moment.
Yang Wucheng drove with a calm expression, as if nothing was amiss. Deep down, however, he was under immense pressure. He had a vague, strange sensation between his eyebrows. He knew exactly what it meant: someone had him in the sights of a long-range sniper rifle.
After all, Yang Wucheng was a battle-hardened veteran. He had once been a member of a special forces team and had gradually climbed to his current position. Lacking any influential backing, he had started as a regular soldier. Rising from a common soldier to a military region commander required not just brains, but also tremendous strength!
Though Yang Wucheng hadn't seen action in recent years, his daily training regimen was non-negotiable. With a calm expression, Yang Wucheng thought to himself, Looks like it's time for these old bones to get some exercise. Otherwise, people will really think I'm completely washed up.
At that moment, Zhang Tianyou, Sun Lei, Li Liang, and the six others were divided between two cars, their nerves stretched taut. They knew that if a sniper took out Yang Wucheng with a single shot, all their plans for the day would be for nothing. Everything depended on whether Yang Wucheng could dodge the sniper's kill shot.
The sniper on the rooftop watched quietly. When Yang Wucheng's car was two or three kilometers from the military region's main gate, he finally squeezed the trigger.
BANG!
The loud report shattered the night's silence as a bullet tore toward Yang Wucheng's head.
At that instant, the hearts of Zhang Tianyou and his team were in their throats. They watched with extreme tension, terrified that Yang Wucheng would be killed.
Just then, as if by premonition, Yang Wucheng's instincts kicked in the very instant the enemy fired. Without a conscious thought, he instinctively yanked the steering wheel.
In the next moment, the passenger seat swung into the space where Yang Wucheng's head had been.
CRACK!
Although Yang Wucheng's car was bulletproof, the powerful sniper round still punched a hole through it. The bullet then tore clean through the passenger seat!
Seeing this, a cold sweat broke out on Yang Wucheng's back. If he hadn't instinctively turned the wheel, he knew he would be dead without a doubt.
Meanwhile, the sniper's expression turned grim. As a professional, he knew the cardinal rule: after a failed shot, a sniper must immediately relocate. This sniper knew that rule well. However, furious at his failure to kill Yang Wucheng and unwilling to give up, he remained in place and prepared to fire again.
"Captain, let me handle that guy! I'll take him down!" Wei Jialin roared from inside one of the cars.
Wei Jialin was a big man, towering over most in both height and build. More importantly, he was the most skilled sniper in the Seal Special Team.
"Alright. Be careful!" Zhang Tianyou said after stopping the car.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely take that bastard down!" Wei Jialin said with a murderous look. With that, he grabbed his sniper rifle and jumped out of the car.
After getting out, Wei Jialin quickly found some cover and set up his rifle, aiming at the high-rise building ahead. Sure enough, a head was slightly visible on the rooftop, but the angle was too low for a clean shot.
Damn it, damn it! Pop your head up! he fumed internally.
At that moment, two cars charged out from a crossroads, instantly blocking Yang Wucheng's path. The next instant, ten men from the Island Country jumped out and unleashed a wild barrage of gunfire at Yang Wucheng's vehicle.
Seeing this, Yang Wucheng ducked as he threw the car into a wild reverse. Simultaneously, the two cars driven by Zhang Tianyou and Sun Lei sped forward to engage.
"Brothers, go!" Zhang Tianyou roared.
In the next instant, all eight men jumped from their vehicles, guns blazing, and began a frantic firefight.
The enemy sniper now felt the threat. He stayed completely still, not daring to peek out. He had a premonition that if he exposed his head, he would be killed instantly.
Though inwardly furious, Wei Jialin's expression remained perfectly calm, his eyes continuously scanning the rooftop as if searching for something. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. Damn, what am I even looking for? I'm such an idiot. If I hit his rifle, the impact will make his body jolt. That'll be my chance! But I'll need another gun. It takes nearly two seconds to chamber a new round in my sniper rifle. In that time, he could get away.
With this in mind, Wei Jialin glanced at Dong Jia, who had a habit of carrying two assault rifles. "Dong Jia, toss me a rifle!" Wei Jialin yelled.
Startled for a moment, Dong Jia didn't hesitate to sling the spare assault rifle off his back and throw it to Wei Jialin.
A cold smile touched Wei Jialin's lips as he caught the weapon. He knew the accuracy of an assault rifle at this distance was poor, but he was still confident. Holding a gun in each hand, he aimed both at the enemy sniper on the rooftop.
He lined up the sights of the assault rifle on the enemy's weapon and fired without hesitation.
BANG!
The bullet shot out, striking the enemy's sniper rifle squarely.
SNAP!
The impact violently knocked the rifle aside. Instinctively, the man reached out with both hands to grab it. This movement caused his arms to flail and his body to rise, exposing the upper half of his head.
Seeing his opening, Wei Jialin pulled the trigger of his own sniper rifle without a moment's hesitation.
BANG!
A bullet streaked through the night sky. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
The sniper on the rooftop realized his fatal mistake and tried to duck. However, he was a fraction of a second too slow. The bullet blew the top of his head off, killing him instantly.
Seeing his target drop, Wei Jialin let out a faint sigh of relief. He yelled to his comrades, "Brothers, hit them hard! The sniper's down!"
