Chapter 35: 35. Ferris wheel

Blood sprayed as a triangular arrowhead deeply pierced Teng Feiyu’s shoulder cavity, only coming to a halt after the majority of the arrow’s body penetrated.

Thankfully, it didn’t hit any vital spots.

Lin Qing caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and thought from the trajectory of the arrow that it might have gone through Teng Feiyu’s chest.

Now there was no time for such thoughts. Lin Qing immediately said in a cold voice, “Hide behind me, crouch down, get closer to me! And give me another electric baton!”

“Get in front of me, quick.”

Zhao Jiayi immediately pushed Teng Feiyu behind Lin Qing, while she quickly crouched down behind Teng Feiyu, passing her own electric baton to Lin Qing.

...

Teng Feiyu’s face was pale as he gritted his teeth, ignoring the searing pain and the fresh blood seeping from his shoulder as he stumbled into a half-crouch and bent over behind Lin Qing.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Three more black arrow shadows, blurred as if they were mere afterimages, ripped through the air from three different directions!

The three arrows were not only incredibly fast, but they also came from tricky angles.

“Ding! Ding! Ding!”

After Lin Qing activated the Combat Skill, he waved the electric batons with both hands. With just two slightly curved arcs, he sent all three incoming arrows flying away!

After this salvo, no one was injured.

Lin Qing then whispered urgently, “Follow me!”

Without hesitation, he quickly headed toward the direction of the Ferris wheel.

Teng Feiyu was momentarily stunned, not expecting Lin Qing to possess such strength, a flicker of hope emerging in his heart. Without time to think, he quickly followed suit.

Zhao Jiayi also kept low, hiding as much as possible behind the two men, while keeping up with them.

[Order Level now decreased by 0.3 levels]

[Order Level now decreased by 0.3 levels]

Two consecutive blood-red prompts appeared before Lin Qing’s eyes.

This made him realize that there must be three Archery attackers. Initially, only one Archery attacker was shooting at him, so he had only received one prompt.

Now, it seemed that all three Archers had noticed he was completely protecting the two people behind him and decided to join forces to deal with him!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

“Ding! Ding! Ding!”

The three had not walked far when another three arrows came flying, and again Lin Qing blocked them.

With his ability, if the three arrows were aimed only at him, he wouldn’t even need to block them. He could easily avoid them just with his astonishing nerve reaction Speed and Agility.

But if he wanted to also protect Zhao Jiayi and Teng Feiyu behind him, he had to deflect all of the incoming arrows.

It was effortless to protect himself, but saving others was a bit more troublesome.

With three arrows coming at once, even though he could accurately predict them and intercept them a meter away, the swinging Speed of his arms with the electric baton was far slower than the arrows.

And for an arrow Speed of over two hundred meters per second, how long would it take to cross a one-meter distance?

The time he had to deflect an arrow was merely a fraction of a second, a time frame most people couldn’t even react to.

Thankfully, he could push the Combat Skill “Agility” to its limit.

Thankfully, he had mastered version 77 of the Sunrise Training Method to perfection.

As long as these two stood behind him, close enough, it would be much easier for him to intercept the arrows.

If they stood scattered as in the beginning, with the three arrows far apart from each other, he certainly wouldn’t have been able to deflect all of them in an instant.

Of course, he could only prioritize saving Zhao Jiayi.

“Hurry up!”

Lin Qing urged again, swinging the electric baton to deflect the three incoming arrows, then continued heading towards the Ferris wheel.

They were on an open square, with virtually no obstacles, and staying put meant no chance of survival.

Activating the Combat Skill was also draining his Energy, and he couldn’t keep it up for long.

Retreating was indeed a good choice, but doing so would give his attackers the opportunity to escape, and who knows if the enemy had anticipated his retreat and prepared something on the way back?

So—

The best choice was to move forward!

Once they reached the base of the Ferris wheel platform, not only would the enemy be unable to shoot them, but he could also deal with the three Archery attackers!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The three archers coordinated extremely well, firing at an extremely fast pace, clearly professional assassins.

Even two of the assassins knew how to shoot two arrows simultaneously, with five arrows slightly adjusting their sequence, all aimed at five parts close to Lin Qing’s body.

But for Lin Qing, as long as these arrows were within a certain range, with his astonishing dynamic vision and reaction speed, he would be able to intercept them with a prediction in advance.

If there had been more arrows, he would have had no choice but to flee with Zhao Jiayi.

“Whew… Whew…”

Teng Feiyu’s face was pale as he gasped for breath, his arm stained red with the blood flowing from his shoulder, leaving a trail of blood behind him.

But after all, he had mastered the Steel version of the Sunrise Training Method, so his physical condition was much stronger than that of ordinary people.

Furthermore, driven by a desire to live, he didn’t fall even half a step behind.

“Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!”

Another volley of arrows descended from the sky, once again being deflected by the electric baton swung by Lin Qing’s hands.

Even after getting closer to the Ferris wheel and the distance narrowed, leaving him with less reaction time, it was still within his capacity to cope.

Having undergone the transformation of the Steel version of the Sunrise Training Method, combined with the Combat Skill “Agility” which maximally enhanced his reaction speed, and being skilled in shooting, his eyesight was naturally excellent.

Thus, his nerve reaction speed surged beyond that of ordinary people by an unknown multiple!

“We’re safe now.”

Once the three of them were below the platform where the Ferris wheel stood, the three assassins ceased firing, for this had become a blind spot from above the Ferris wheel.

“You two hide here and wait for backup. I’ll take care of those three assassins.”

Lin Qing glanced at the two, said no more, retreated a few steps, and with ease jumped up more than three meters to the platform of the Ferris wheel.

Right at that moment—

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Five consecutive arrows tore through the air, enveloping all the space around him.

But Lin Qing just accelerated forward casually, and the five arrows missed their mark, bouncing off the ground.

With his reaction speed and agility, all he needed was a little bit of time and he could easily dodge them!

“Where are they?”

Lin Qing hid under the Ferris wheel’s supporting structure, taking out his sidearm.

He could only estimate the general position of the three assassins based on the direction of the arrows, but to pinpoint their exact location on the Ferris wheel required a search.

With the sky so dim, it was quite troublesome to locate them on this colossal Ferris wheel, eighty meters tall, and these professional assassins might have prepared other hidden measures.

“I can only climb up now…”

Lin Qing glanced up, didn’t hesitate, immediately activated his Combat Skill, and effortlessly leaped onto the flaking waterproof paint of the Ferris wheel’s rim and its steel railing.

Immediately, he began to move nimble as a cat, leaping between the radial network of steel railings on the rim, making his way towards the upper part of the Ferris wheel.

With his physical condition, plus the huge boost in flexibility and balance from the Combat Skill “Agility,” scaling walls and rooftops was easy, let alone this Ferris wheel that was rife with footholds.

To him, moving here was as natural as walking on solid ground.

“Where are you hiding?”

While Lin Qing steadily leaped higher, he used the distant light from the urban circle to scrutinize various spots on the Ferris wheel.

After all, it was too dark, and even with his strong eyesight, he couldn’t see clearly.

Moreover, with so many covers on the Ferris wheel, if the assassins wore dark clothes, they’d be even harder to find.

Just then—

“There seems to be someone over there?”

Lin Qing suddenly turned his gaze to a complex intertwining of railings within the Ferris wheel.

Even though it was pitch black and nothing was visible, for some reason, he had an intuition, as if his subconscious was telling him—

The enemy was there!

“Bang!”

Without any hesitation, Lin Qing lifted his revolver and fired a shot in that direction.

Flashes of gunfire erupted.

In an instant, the bullet precisely passed through the crossing railings, straight into the dark shadows!

“Ugh!”

Immediately after, a muffled grunt of pain that couldn’t be suppressed emanated from the darkness.

“He’s really there!” Lin Qing’s eyes lit up.
