Chapter 103: The Terror of the Sniper
Soon, the Small Island destination in the distance became clearly visible. The Flower Country's dozen or so Large Ships quickly formed an attack Formation, sailing side by side. In less than half a minute, they had completed the encirclement of the Small Island.
After the dozen or so Large Ships formed an attack Formation, they communicated with each other via Den Den Mushi and began to advance towards the Small Island ahead.
On the Small Island, one Nautical Mile away, Simon also saw the dozen or so Battleships slowly approaching in an attack Formation through his Telescope.
The enemy's Formation was tight and they were rapidly approaching the Small Island. It seemed that if they were not stopped, they would land on the Island in no more than three minutes.
However, this distance was almost beyond the shooting range for ordinary Snipers, but for some Talent-type individuals, this distance was just normal sniping range.
Although Simon was alone, the enemy consisted of a dozen Warships with thousands of Enemies.
But in Simon's eyes, he was the Hunter at this moment, and those people were his Prey.
Simon checked the Magazine, the Bullet loading was normal. Then, he raised the Sniper Rifle in his hand and brought the Warships on the Sea Surface into the Scope.
Simon held the Gun Handle, the Gun Stock against his shoulder, his shooting posture was standard. His finger pressed on the Trigger, and he began to select Prey among the people walking on the Ships.
Soon, he selected a Target. It was a person wearing gorgeous clothes, clearly different from the others on the Ship. Moreover, judging from the attitude of the Crew member around him, it was obvious that he was a person of high Status on the Ship.
"Move faster! Check the Shell filling, prepare for landing! You Swine eat so much normally, but when it comes to a crucial moment, you become so slow!"
A young man in gorgeous clothes was loudly scolding the busy Crew member on the Deck. It seemed that in his eyes, these Crew member were like Slaves rather than Companions.
All the busy Flower Country Navy soldiers cast envious glances at this young man in gorgeous clothes. Everyone knew that this guy's Abilities were very ordinary, but who told him to have a good father who directly arranged for him to become a Captain? As long as he spent more than a year gaining Seniority on the Ship, he could enter the real Ruling Class of Flower Country.
"If only I had a good father too."
Just as many Flower Country Navy soldiers were thinking this.
Suddenly, red and white Liquid splattered. White Bone Fragment stained with Blood directly embedded themselves into the surrounding Deck, and some Liquid even splashed onto the faces of the nearby Navy soldiers who had not yet recovered.
And that young man with a good background, who was just gaining experience in the Flower Country Navy, his Body fell straight down onto the Deck, and finally landed on the slightly damp Deck, losing his breath.
A Flower Country Navy soldier who was nearby and carrying Shells was splashed with Blood all over his face. He looked at the Headless Corpse that slowly fell and finally crashed onto the Deck, and thought to himself, "This guy is really unlucky."
Then he subconsciously wanted to find Cover.
But in the next moment, he felt a sudden sharp pain in his brain, and then his vision went black.
The Shell in his hand directly smashed onto the Deck. Shells rolled along the Deck to the side.
"There's..."
Two Companions fell in succession, one of whom was the Captain. The experienced Chief Sailor immediately realized that they were under Enemy attack. He just wanted to shout a warning, but in the next moment, his Head instantly exploded, and his Corpse directly smashed onto the Deck.
Three Companions had been taken down in succession. At this moment, the Crew member on this Ship all showed terrified expressions. Then, many of them entered an Alert State and began to look for the Enemy's location through Cover.
Accompanied by the Alarm, the other Ships also received the News and all entered Alert.
"Lookout, have you seen the Enemy's position?"
A Gunner, lying on the Deck, shouted loudly at the Lookout on the Mast. For them, if they didn't know the Enemy's position, they were no different from blind men.
"Damn it, that guy is too Alert, I'm look..."
The Lookout, holding a monocular Telescope, was just about to speak. Then, right in front of the Gunner's eyes, his entire Head, along with the Telescope in his hand, exploded. His Corpse also directly fell into the Crow's Nest.
Obviously, when he discovered the Enemy, the Enemy also discovered him.
Inside a Large Ship that looked like a Flagship, dozens of Pirates were busily loading Shells. They were inside the Hull of the Ship, and unless they were hit by Cannon Fire, they would basically not be harmed.
"Shells loaded! Prepare to fire!"
A Gunner covered in Gunpowder shouted loudly. Obviously, through Simon's previous attacks, they had roughly locked onto the opponent's position. Although they didn't know the exact location, Firepower Coverage would do the job.
And at this time, Simon, who had changed his position, looked at the Ships in the distance with some confusion. In his impression, shouldn't Pirate Ships counterattack immediately after being attacked?
Could it be that the enemy is not ordinary Pirates?
As soon as this thought appeared, dozens of muffled sounds came from the distance. Then, dozens of Shells came whistling through the air.
Simon looked through the Scope at the dozens of Shells flying towards him. The Speed of these Shells was not fast. After drawing an arc, they all crashed near his previous sniping position.
Simon watched these Shells crash into his previous position.
He finally understood why the enemy was not fiercely counterattacking after being attacked. They wanted to lock onto his position and then directly use Firepower Coverage to eliminate him. This combat awareness was completely incomparable to those Cannon Fodder Pirate Crew.
And taking advantage of the Cannon Fire, those Ships were also rapidly closing the distance. It seemed that in less than a minute, the enemy could land.
And looking at the Island engulfed in Firelight, the Gunner who had fired the first Cannon showed a slightly smug expression. Although he admitted that the opponent's sniping Ability was outstanding, he was still a bit too naive in the face of the battle-hardened Flower Country Navy.
Just then, a Bullet penetrated directly through the Lookout Port, which was more than twenty centimeters wide, and directly blew the Gunner's head. Then, accompanied by several thudding sounds, the Gunners in the Ship Cabin showed terrified expressions. They had all noticed one thing: all the people who had their heads blown off were close to the Lookout Port.
Realizing this, they immediately threw themselves backwards.
All of them looked at the dozen or so Lookout Ports with terrified eyes.
And the same scene was also happening on the surrounding Ships. So many of their Ships were actually being suppressed by a Gun.
The Flower Country Navy soldiers on the Ships were already a bit dumbfounded in the face of this situation. They couldn't understand, couldn't understand why that guy on the Island could suppress them with just a Gun. And as the distance continued to close, it became even more damn exaggerated. If it was said that when the distance was far before, shooting still required aiming and predicting the Trajectory.
Now that the distance was closer, the opponent was almost at the point where as long as you dared to show your head, you would be headshot.
Even the originally safe Gun Position had become a high-risk area. As long as you dared to appear at the Lookout Port, what awaited you was a Bullet.
Now, many people were already praying for the Ships to Dock quickly, otherwise they could only become the opponent's Targets.
Soon the Ships Docked, and a large number of Flower Country Navy soldiers jumped directly off the Ships and rushed towards the Island. During the time the Ships Docked, they had lost at least a hundred people. The feeling of waiting for Death to reap their lives made everyone want to urgently vent the anger in their hearts.
At the same time, the Ships at Sea also began to Cannon Fire towards the Island, intending to suppress that terrifying Sniper.
Boom!
A Shell exploded only five meters away from Simon, thick black smoke rose up. Simon was not afraid at all, only excited.
