I will practice more in the United States

Chapter 150 New Skill [Shooting]

In the evening, Katina delivered a luxurious dinner cooked by herself as promised.

She knew that Li Ang had a big appetite, and the lunch box he brought over was quite large.

There is a bowl of thick cream of mushroom soup, curry potato and beef, a huge bowl of tomato pasta, and some desserts such as egg tarts and cookies.

"These look like they cost more than twelve dollars. If you put a restaurant's trademark on the box, it would cost at least $120."

Li Ang looked at these sumptuous foods and admired them.

Katina raised her eyebrows and said:
"In fact, I gave you part of my brother's dinner budget. He has shown signs of gaining weight recently, so he needs to control it."

Of course, Li Ang was not waiting at home for Katina to come over. He also cooked a few dishes himself and waited for her to come over to eat together.

"How about a taste of my craftsmanship."

Li Ang fried two pieces of tomahawk steak and made several Chinese specialties such as spicy chicken and sweet and sour pork ribs.

He is now quite confident in his cooking skills, that is, the attribute panel does not show it, otherwise he feels that he must have a proficient level of cooking skills.

This is mainly due to his increasingly sophisticated sensory abilities. If he can control every detail, he can basically replicate the skills of those chefs. Coupled with the precise control of taste, he can also completely control the taste according to his own taste. Dishes tailored to your taste.

In his opinion, several of the dishes prepared by Katina were quite good, and they must have been carefully prepared.

After all, Americans here are very economical when it comes to cooking, and they are quite lazy in cooking. They use semi-finished products when they can. Many times, they just get some vegetables, cooked meat, and mix some sauce. This is considered a fool. A meal.

So just by watching Katina cook so many dishes, you can see that she didn't do it half-heartedly.

After eating, the two also did some post-meal exercises to promote digestion.

In the office of the police station, Taylor and several of his colleagues stared at each other.

"So where's that fancy dinner your sister cooked that you were showing off?"

"I don't know, maybe, there are more dishes, so it takes a little longer."

Taylor spread his palms, indicating that some things were beyond his control.

After sending Katina away, Li Ang still browsed a lot of information about firearms on the Internet.

Although I have zero practical experience, I need to supplement my theoretical knowledge first so that I won’t be too embarrassed when I actually get started tomorrow.

In fact, like ordinary firearms, you can buy many of them in stores. Generally, when you go to a shooting range, what you look forward to the most are weapons that ordinary people cannot have access to.

Like some sniper rifles, fully automatic rifles, heavy machine guns, etc.

The next morning, Li Ang also drove with Katina and followed their large army to the shooting range more than a hundred kilometers away.

Because her brother Taylor is a police officer, Katina has much more experience with firearms than Leon. She has been exposed to basically all types of firearms.

The reason why I brought Katina with me this time was because I wanted to be able to shoot some material inside and just treat it as an outing.

This shooting range is quite large, with all kinds of venues inside.

After arriving, Li Ang also found that apart from the staff, there were no other customers inside, so he must have specially arranged to book the venue.

The boss behind the investment in this shooting range also came to the scene to greet Javier.

He even personally introduced them to various firearms and some usage techniques.

He also said that as long as there are various firearms here, you can use them casually, and there is no limit to the bullets.

Friends who often shoot guns know that the price of serious firearms is actually not too high. If you pay attention to maintenance, they can be used for many years.

On the contrary, those bullets, once the number of practice increases, the speed of burning money is quite alarming.

Indoor shooting ranges like here charge based on venue and time, $30 an hour, and you can bring your own guns and bullets.

Of course, you can also rent a gun. Generally speaking, a regular pistol costs 20 US dollars and a rifle costs 30 US dollars. The price increases according to the price of the gun.

As for bullets, fifty rounds usually cost twenty or thirty yuan. The price is also calculated based on the type of bullet.

After learning that Li Ang was exposed to guns for the first time, the security officer in the venue also briefly explained to him the relevant regulations and precautions for use.

The most important points are to never turn around with a gun, only to point at the target in front of you.

When the gun is not in use, place it on the target with the muzzle facing the target.

Never point your gun at others or yourself at any time.

Do not put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to fire and after you have finished shooting.

These are all for safety reasons, which is understandable. Like many domestic shooting ranges, firearms are fixed and can only rotate at angles within a certain range.

On Katina's recommendation, Li Ang chose an Italian Beretta 92F pistol.

When loaded, the gun weighs more than two kilograms, which is about the same as holding a one-liter bottle of iced tea in your hand.

As soon as you get your hands on the gun, the feeling of metal is completely incomparable to those of toy pistols.

This gun was developed by the Italian Beretta company in 1985 and is quite famous, not inferior to the Desert Eagle at all.

It was selected as the new generation standard military pistol by the US military and was renamed the M9 pistol in the US military.

And in 1989, the gun was selected for the second selection of pistol replacement and renamed M10. Now the US military is equipped with this gun, replacing the 11.43mm Colt M1911A1 pistol that has been equipped for nearly half a century.

From these, it is enough to see that this pistol is extremely excellent in terms of durability and performance. It is quite suitable for a novice to try.

At the same time, Katina also came to Li Ang thoughtfully and explained some usage techniques to him.

"Don't be nervous. For beginners, the first goal is to hit the bullet on the target paper first."

In TV dramas, people always give people the illusion that pistols are very simple and easy to aim, but in fact, let alone one hand, even if you hold the gun with both hands, you can basically not hit a target 15 yards (13.7 meters) away. Even if the target is 7 yards (6.4 meters) away, there is a high probability that it will miss the target.

Under Katina's guidance, Li Ang assumed a standard posture of holding a gun with both hands.

The target for the first attempt was a 7-yard target.

"boom!"

Even with earplugs, the huge gunshot still surprised Li Ang.

His heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and shooting always brought people unconscious excitement.

Soon, the score of Li Ang's first shot was displayed on the computer next to him, five rings.

This result is actually quite average, but it also depends on who scores it.

"Wow, you look like you have a real talent for shooting."

Katina couldn't help but praise.

For ordinary people, the main reason for shooting for the first time is that they cannot adapt to the recoil of the gun and cannot predict the accuracy of the gun. They can only shoot based on feeling.

Moreover, the guns used in shooting ranges are generally older, many have exceeded their service life, and their accuracy is relatively poor.

In other words, thanks to Javier's influence, they used the best quality batch this time.

The reason why Li Ang's first shooting result was pretty good was because his power was obviously much stronger than ordinary people, so even if it was his first contact, the recoil of this type of 9mm pistol was really not too big for him. Big impact.

With his first experience, Li Ang fired several more shots in succession.

"Eight rings, seven rings, nine rings, nine rings, ten rings."

At this moment, even the security officer behind could not help but glance at Li Ang.

If he hadn't seen Li Ang's unskilled posture when holding a gun, he would definitely suspect that Li Ang was a veteran with guns.

Katina couldn't help but applaud Li Ang.

"It's a pity that you don't want to be a police officer. I can't believe you can adapt so quickly."

She originally thought that Li Ang's first shot might have been blinded, but there was no other way to explain these consecutive shots except hard power.

Moreover, the interval between each of Li Ang's shots is quite short, which to a certain extent increases the difficulty of shooting.

But this matter is nothing new for Li Ang.

The sensitivity, control and strength of his hands now far exceed those of ordinary people.

After obtaining the recoil force of the gun every time it was fired, Li Ang quickly used corresponding force-generating techniques to resolve the force. The current pistol was no different from firing a recoilless pistol in his hand.

Naturally, at such a close range, the effect of hitting wherever you point can be achieved.

After finishing all the bullets in the magazine, a new skill successfully appeared in Li Ang's attribute panel.

【shooting】

2/100 (entry level)
Li Ang fired a few more shots, and almost every time he shot seriously, he could increase his proficiency by two points. This efficiency was incredibly high.

But soon, the increase in proficiency became a matter of two or three shots.

This is also normal, which means that the gun's shooting effect at this distance has become less and less effective in improving Li Ang's skills.

Judging from Li Ang's experience, if you want to maintain such rapid growth, you have to increase the difficulty of shooting or replace different guns.

"Change to a 15-yard target."

The distance at this time is no longer any challenge for Li Ang. As long as there are no problems with the firearms and bullets themselves, he can almost maintain the tenth level of the firearm.

Katina raised her eyebrows and said:
"I feel like your current level is almost catching up with mine, which makes me a little frustrated. I'm not even five minutes ahead of you in this skill, and I'm about to be overwhelmed by you."

"Hahahaha, maybe my physical talent is better, but it's okay. You can still ride on me elsewhere."

After joking with her in a low voice and teasing Katina, the two adjusted the distance on this path to 15 yards.

This distance is already a practice area for experienced players. For novices, practicing at this distance is basically a waste of bullets. It would be great if half of the bullets hit the target.

Chris' footsteps also moved towards Li Ang.

He was really tired of playing with these firearms in his hands. It would be more interesting to watch a few of these rookies shoot targets.

"By the way, let's get another gun."

If you spend money to play this game, this kind of gameplay is really wasteful. After all, if you change a gun, you have to pay the cost of another one.

But since it’s free, it’s naturally better to try a few more firearms.

Li Ang's approach made Chris shake his head slightly.

For novices, the most important thing is to maintain the shooting feel. This is the fastest way to improve shooting ability.

Frequent replacement of guns will undoubtedly destroy the establishment of this feel. After all, the weight, recoil, sight, etc. of each gun are different, which is undoubtedly harmful to the early foundation.

But then I thought about it, they were just here for fun, and they didn't really want to be soldiers, so it didn't matter. I had been an instructor for a long time, and my old habit of being a teacher came back again.

This time Li Ang changed to a Colt M2000 pistol. This gun is also very famous and can be seen in many games.

This gun is lighter in weight and has a magazine capacity of 15 rounds. The advantage is that it is simple to operate, has high shooting accuracy, and is easy to use.

Katina was also itching to watch. After getting the gun, she took the lead and tried it a few times.

Her shooting posture is quite skilled, and she is fundamentally different from a novice like Li Ang at first glance.

“9环、7环、8环、8环、10环.”

With ten bullets, Katina scored a total of 85 points, which is definitely the best among amateur players.

"I can't tell, but your skill with a gun is quite high!"

Li Ang couldn't help but nod in praise. If the gunman he met in the supermarket that day had such a level, the number of casualties would be a bit uncontrollable.

Chris, the professional player behind him, gave a thumbs up to express his approval.

Katina took off her protective gear and couldn't help but smile. Although she hadn't been in contact for a while, she performed well this time, slightly better than her usual results.

"It's your turn. With the speed of your progress, you should be able to surpass me soon."

Li Ang reloaded the bullet, adjusted his breathing and stance, took aim, and fired.

“9环、9环、10环、10环、10环.”

Except for the first two shots, which were affected by different guns and distances, Li Ang accurately controlled the landing point of each subsequent shot.

In the end, he achieved a terrifying score of 98 rings.

After these ten shots, Li Ang's [shooting] proficiency has increased a lot, and he is about to break through to the next level.

In fact, according to the actual level, Li Ang may already have a proficient level in the use of these two pistols, but the reason why his current [shooting] overall rating is still at the entry level is because he has used it so far. There are still too few guns, and there is also a lack of shooting experience in more environments, which lowers the overall score.

"I bought it!"

Katina, who had been happy with her results for less than two minutes, turned around and saw Li Ang's score of 98, and her brain almost shut down.

"Is this really your first time using a pistol?"

Li Ang shrugged and replied:

"As you can see, ten minutes ago I didn't even know where to turn the safety on the pistol."

Chris in the back was even more shocked.

In fact, he was not only surprised by Li Ang's results, but what was even more shocked was the movements of Li Ang's hands.

He found that this martial arts master from the East, except for the first two shots, was still adjusting his posture, and the eight shots behind him almost completely reproduced the exact same shooting posture.

In his opinion, this is almost impossible to achieve, including him, it took so many years of experience to achieve this kind of control ability.

For amateur players, even if they are experienced with guns, they may know how to aim to hit the bullseye, but in actual operation, there is no way to ensure that their hands, arms, breathing or even heartbeat can cooperate. Therefore, the results will fluctuate to some extent.

But in Li Ang's body, Chris seemed to see a shooting machine.

This kind of control ability and learning ability, coupled with his terrifying physical fitness and fighting skills, if he is put on the battlefield and honed for several years, he will definitely be a warrior king.

He even wanted to ask Li Ang if he had any plans to become a soldier.

If Li Ang is willing to go, he is happy to use his connections to help pave the way for him. In his opinion, Li Ang's ultimate achievements will definitely be higher than his own.

For the third pistol, Li Ang directly replaced it with the famous Desert Eagle.

This gun is far superior to the previous pistols in terms of caliber and weight, and its recoil is also quite huge.

Although it has the advantage of being powerful, ordinary women and thin people may even be shaken off by the huge impact when using it for the first time.

Because it was very different from the previous pistols he used in every aspect, Li Ang spent five rounds of bullets, but gradually mastered the essentials of using this gun and improved his score to at least 9 levels.

During the use of Desert Eagle, Li Ang's [Shooting] proficiency growth rate returned to the extremely high growth rate at the beginning, and he successfully advanced [Shooting] to the proficiency level.

【shooting】

23/200 (skilled)
(Feature: Aiming ability enhanced by 10%)

The characteristics produced by this new skill are also quite practical.

Li Ang discovered that the aiming ability enhanced by the characteristics was not only useful when shooting firearms.

When no one was paying attention, he picked up a shell casing on the ground and aimed at the target 15 yards away in front of him.

"Shh!"

It hit the bull's-eye, more accurately than what he shot with a gun.

Sure enough, when I used a concealed weapon to aim, it was easier than before.

Li Ang estimates that the ability of this characteristic is more than that, and perhaps the accuracy when playing football and shooting will also increase as a result.

Next, Li Ang tried several pistols and briefly learned about them, but the gains in proficiency growth were already relatively low.

After trying several mainstream pistols, Li Ang also changed to a rifle.

To a novice, a rifle looks more complicated, but is actually easier to aim than a pistol.

Because of its structure and the stability of the gun-holding action, the rifle is superior to the pistol in terms of range and accuracy.

Li Ang picked up an M4A1, and the flavor of Counter-Strike suddenly came out.
