Chapter 767 - 805: The Intense Gun Battle
Who was Li Yifei? He was the second-in-command of the Flying Hawk Squad yet the true Head Eagle. Among all the leaders of Flying Hawk Squad, his strength was absolutely within the top three. Having encountered countless gunfights, being targeted by snipers was not something new to him. In such moments, it wouldn’t be easy for anyone to score a hit on him.
When the enemy sniper had his sights on Li Yifei, there would always be a slight movement of the gun barrel. However, at that moment, Li Yifei had already started to act. With a flick of his hand, a dark shadow flew towards the direction the bullet came from, while his body, swift as a cheetah, pounced toward the spot where Zheng Yuling and the other two women had landed.
Snipers, when aiming, relied on scopes, and these were monocular, allowing them to lock onto their targets with great accuracy. Although what Li Yifei threw could not compare to a bullet, its trajectory was incredibly clever, creating the illusion for the sniper that something was coming straight at him through the scope. Instinctively, the sniper dodged, and as he fired, his bullet strayed from its path, and Li Yifei narrowly avoided it.
While this may sound simple, the execution was extraordinarily difficult. It required a precise assessment of the enemy’s location, and the object thrown had to align perfectly with the enemy’s scope to create such an optical illusion. Even the slightest deviation would be inconsequential to a skilled sniper.
The enemy’s reaction speed was so fast that it caught Li Yifei by surprise. The sniper shot down the fruit plate that Li Yifei threw, then fired another bullet following his direction, but Li Yifei had already used an armchair to block the incoming shot. He quickly caught up with Zheng Yuling and hid behind a long sofa.
The sofa was right by the stairwell, and Xiao Ling’er on the sofa, Zheng Yuling crouching on the ground, and Su Mengfei all let out screams.
Li Yifei hurriedly shouted, "Stop screaming!" Their panic would affect his ability to discern sounds.
However, the three were completely terrified and seemed deaf to Li Yifei’s shouts.
Making a split-second decision, Li Yifei smacked each of their butts with a strong slap, jolting their senses to a brief clarity with the physical pain.
"Now, I’m going to stand the sofa up to block the stairwell, and we’ll head upstairs," Li Yifei quickly said in the moment, promptly lifting Xiao Ling’er off the sofa. Not bothering with gentleness, he threw her onto the floor, then, with a surge of strength, stood the several-hundred-pound sofa up on its end.
