"Although you cut it in two, Gil, we can still determine that the sniper used .50 caliber BROWNING heavy machine gun bullets. Although we investigated the rifling, there was no prior record. The gun had never been used for crime before."
Rifling, also known as "the fingerprints of a gun," is the spin marks left by the barrel on a bullet as it is fired.
Sima Weizhi opened the fan and spun it, and the scene changed several times, showing a mini 3D model of the terrain at the scene of the incident.
Sima Weizhi pointed her fan at the rooftop of the building where the suspected sniper was hiding, and then dragged the fan to the position of the limousine. She drew a line on the model connecting the two points, marking the distance between them as 991 meters.
"Gil-chan, to be honest, it's really strange. Are you really sure it's in that location?"
Rentaro clicked his tongue at the sight, "How terrifying."
“I don’t deny that the opponent was terrifying… I destroyed those two bullets myself, and judging from their location, there’s no doubt about it.” Jill nodded. “I saw the muzzle flash come out from that spot with my own eyes.”
Jill said it casually.
Actually, it was the omniscient and omnipotent star's foresight; seeing flames and such is simply not something Jill would do.
“Gil-chan, it’s 2031 now. Although the accuracy of sniper scopes and firearms has improved a lot, the key factor that ultimately determines the hit rate is still the shooter. The human heart is always beating, and breathing will cause the hands to vibrate. A sniper who can hit a target 800 meters away can be called a ‘master,’ one kilometer away is considered ‘divine skill,’ 1.2 kilometers away is called ‘stunt performance,’ and any further is ‘luck,’” Sima Weizhi said.
“I understand, or rather, I’m a little bit good at sniping,” Jill said. “I guess I could be considered one of the ‘experts’ that Sister Sima mentioned.”
Jill wasn't joking; he had practiced sniping, possessed marksmanship and long-range vision, and could definitely be considered a top-tier sniper.
“As expected of our Homra King…” Rentaro smacked his lips, recalling the strength he felt when he was being pulled.
"Well, never mind. I called you guys here today so you might as well prepare. I'm going to give you a combat test," Sima Miori said. "Kosatomi, you go first."
"Uh? Okay." Rentaro nodded.
……
Rentaro was in a white room. An enormous room.
The room was completely empty and spotless. Lighting from the ceiling above reflected off the pristine white interior, creating a dazzling effect.
"How's it going, Kosato?"
"I still can't distinguish between front, back, left, and right spaces. I feel like my brain is about to go crazy."
Responding lazily to the voice of Miori Sima coming through the earpiece, Rentaro looked around.
"Rentaro, let me see your skills. If you perform to my satisfaction, I can give you a bonus next month!" Gil's voice came over, and Rentaro had no choice but to respond.
He was on the fifth basement floor of the Sima Heavy Industry headquarters building. This was a vast cubic space known as the "VR Special Training Room," with a diameter of one kilometer.
The entire interior is made of special rubber, allowing for the use of live ammunition and the testing of various explosives. It is a world-renowned high-performance simulated combat training facility.
Self-Defense Forces, special police, police officers, and even wealthy people looking for fun frequently rent this venue, and reservations are reportedly booked up for a year in advance.
"Then let's get started!"
P.S.: A teaser for the fifth world, K RETURN OF KINGS, season two!
Chapter 109: Nearly fifty times stronger than Kosato!
"Wow, it looks like I've recruited a remarkable employee," Jill said, looking at the screen with some surprise.
Rentaro was assigned to a battlefield called [IMPOSSIBLE].
The enemy has deployed thirty militiamen wearing headscarves. It is a battlefield that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. From the very beginning, it will be met with a crossfire of assault rifles, so no one has passed through so far.
A few days ago, ten elite members of the police special assault team also challenged the team in a group battle, but in the end, all of them were given a virtual death penalty and were defeated miserably.
Gil was somewhat surprised to see that Rentaro had easily defeated quite a few opponents.
Gil observed Rentaro carefully, then suddenly smiled.
"What's wrong?" Sima Weizhi looked at Jill curiously.
“No… it’s just that Rentaro’s bonus next month is guaranteed,” Gilles said with a smile.
"But you're really cunning, Gil-chan, you managed to lure Rentaro and that cow into your Homra in one go..."
“…” Gil paused for a moment before realizing that the cow Shima Miori was referring to was Tendo Kisara…
"Well, the result is in." Rentaro successfully killed all the enemies and won the victory. Gil nodded slightly when he saw this.
"2200%!" Sima Weizhi screamed excitedly, startling Jill.
"It's so noisy! What do you mean 2200%?" Rentaro complained.
"Kosatomi used this simulator three times before, and that was when her average combat power was set to 100%. This time, her combat power is... But how did Kosato suddenly become so strong..."
"Maybe Rentaro went easy on us earlier?" Gil casually remarked, and Rentaro could only agree.
After all, he couldn't very well say that he had liberated a portion of the forces...
"Alright, it's my turn." Gil grinned. "Rentaro, it's my turn."
……
So this time, the person standing in that huge room was Jill.
“Let’s begin,” Jill said to Sima Weizhi on the other end of the microphone.
"Then this must be the battlefield that Kosato experienced as well."
Then the scene before Jill changed.
The desert...
Let's be a little more serious then.
Jill thought for a moment, then tossed aside the cloth bag she was carrying and took out only the modified P228 pistol, the imitation spirit sword Ice Float, and the spirit sword Cherry Blossom.
He put the P228 pistol into the holster on his leg and gripped the two knives tightly.
The first thing that greeted them was a cross-shaped net of fire, and Jill's eyes lit up.
So, Sima Miori and Rentaro, who were watching from another room, both opened their mouths wide involuntarily.
His chin was probably about to fall to the ground.
Jill's twin blades, wielded simultaneously with incredible precision, cleaved every incoming bullet in two with deadly accuracy.
"So fast..." Rentaro muttered to himself unconsciously, "Swordsmanship even stronger than Kisara-san's..."
Then, Jill did something even more horrific.
He hurled the Spirit Blade, Cherry Blossom Blizzard, into the air from his right hand, then drew his P228 pistol, and swiftly headshot every enemy who peeked out from behind the dunes.
It was less of a battle and more of a stunt performance, making Sima Miori and Rentaro's eyes almost pop out of their sockets.
This modified P228 pistol has a smaller magazine capacity than a regular pistol, holding only nine rounds. After firing, Jill put the pistol away, and the Spirit Blade Cherry Blossom Blizzard was stuck in the ground.
Jill drew her Spirit Blade, Cherry Blossom Blizzard, and charged out once more.
With a single, precise stroke, as accurate as a scalpel, he sliced through the throat of a militiaman, killing him instantly.
Jill's figure was like a ghost, almost impossible to pinpoint precisely—
That's a footwork technique that Jill acquired in a similar way to Soul Flash, and it also belongs to the Soul Flash footwork category.
Soul Flash - Mirror Shattering
Jill wielded her twin swords, and with each strike, a militiaman was slain.
Finally, the battle ended.
From the start of the battle to its end, the entire battle lasted only one minute and twenty-six seconds.
“100000%…” Sima Miori said, almost trembling, “It’s nearly fifty times that of Kosatomi…”
“It’s like a monster…” Rentaro said.
"Hmm? Is that so? Not bad." This was the data Jill demonstrated based solely on her body, honed over two years, without using the Gate of Babylon.
……
Strength: C++
Magic: B+
Agile:D++
Endurance: C
Spirit: C++
Lucky: A+
……
Gil's stats are several times stronger than they were two years ago. Now, he could conservatively take down Munakata Reisi, who was using the power of a King, simply by relying on his physical abilities.
(Munakata: Why did you hit me again?)
Even with simple fire magic, Jill can now easily defeat all of the original Blue Clan Scepter 4.
Of course, there was one guy back then (referring to Fushimi Saruhiko) who was really annoying, and I really wanted to punch him! I really wanted to!
After Jill left the VR special training room, Sima Weizhi looked at Jill with a smile.
"Mizuki-nee... could you please stop looking at me like that..." Gil said, feeling a little uneasy under her gaze.
"Gil-chan, do you see how good Miori-neechan is to you?"
“…Don’t say anymore, Homra will continue to cooperate with Sima Heavy Industries…but there’s one more thing I need to ask you.” Gil beckoned and whispered a few words in Sima Miori’s ear.
“…Okay, if it’s what you say, Gil-chan…” So Sima Miori pondered for a moment and nodded.
“…Thank you, Homra owes you a favor,” Gil said solemnly.
"No need, no need. Gil-chan, you just need to keep cooperating, okay?" Sima Miori smiled, resting her chin on her paper fan. "Then..."
Just then, Jill's phone rang again.
Jill apologized to Sima Weizhi and answered the phone.
"Moshi Moshi?" Jill asked curiously. After all, not many people knew the number on her phone. Although anyone with a bit of power could find it, very few people actually had her name saved in her contacts.
...And the notes were all in names that only Jill could understand...
For example... "old bastard" (referring to Kikunojo Tendou), "annoying guy", "die as soon as you see this" (referring to Emperor Saimu Genzong), etc.
Of course, not everyone gets this honor. For example, Chu Xingliu, Jill's nickname is Xingliu.
