Chapter 329: Main Text Chapter 330: This Is Quite Outrageous!

Main text Chapter 330: This is quite outrageous!

The villa's living room.

Xiao Feng sat on the sofa, frowning, a question mark on his face.

Someone tried to assassinate him, and with a gun!

This matter is very serious!

The bodyguards have already called the police; this kind of thing is better handled by the police.

The gunshots just now startled some nearby neighbors; many people now know, and it can't be hidden.

But at this moment, what Xiao Feng cares about most is not this.

But rather...

Why didn't I die?

Four shots!

Exactly four gunshots!

He clearly saw that the assassin in that building was using a sniper rifle.

Although he had never handled firearms, he still had some basic knowledge of them.

The sniper rifle has a large range, high accuracy and power—each aspect is extremely terrifying.

At a distance of 300 meters, as long as the shooter isn't a novice, it's basically a sure hit every time.

Even if he dodged like a snake skin, running around wildly, it would be useless!

But he just didn't die!

Not only did he not die, he wasn't hurt at all!

If he hadn't seen the small tree shot down and the flowerbed blasted with a hole, he might have thought it was a blank gun.

"What the hell is going on?" Xiao Feng asked, bewildered.

Han Jin and the others were also puzzled.

Logically, it shouldn't be like this.

They sent an assassin, and with a sniper rifle—his skill definitely wouldn't be low.

All four shots missed; the probability is even lower than hitting the same spot with all four shots!

"Maybe… maybe the sniper had a change of heart and deliberately missed." Han Jin offered a guess.

Xiao Feng rolled his eyes, "If that were the case, he'd stop after one shot; how could he miss three more times?"

"Uh… you're right." Han Jin scratched his head embarrassedly, realizing his guess didn't hold up.

"Maybe his gun is broken, the scope is faulty, or the barrel is bent." Li Li and Zhang Fan, also awakened, were helping analyze from the side.

"Maybe, that's the most plausible explanation." Xiao Feng pursed his lips.

Here, "reliable" is only relatively reliable.

Logically, anyone daring to do this would surely check their weapon beforehand.

If the sniper rifle really had a problem, it would have been discovered long ago.

This problem left him quite

Bewildered, and because it was so outrageous, it even made him overlook the sense of danger from his own assassination attempt.

There's nothing to be done…

Too absurd!

Which sniper would fire four shots in a row at flowers, grass, and the floor?

A disgrace to the industry!

Such an outrageous thing is even more unexpected than him being assassinated.

If he had been killed by a single shot, Xiao Feng wouldn't find this so funny!

While everyone was suspicious, the police arrived.

Since it's a gun case with very serious circumstances, Xiao Feng, Han Jin, and the others need to go to the station to assist the investigation.

Xiao Feng was very cooperative, telling everything he knew.

Hearing his description of the sniper and the assassination attempt, the police officers were struggling to keep from laughing.

They are all professionally trained, with a deeper understanding of firearms than Xiao Feng, and they also know more clearly what qualities are needed to be a sniper.

An incident like this—four shots at 300 meters missing the target—should be unique worldwide.

Well… such an embarrassing sniper, you definitely couldn't find a second one!

The shooting scene was cordoned off by police; professional technicians extracted the four spent bullets and analyzed the weapon model and firing data based on the bullet holes and bullet heads.

At Xiao Feng's request, the police gave him a set of data.

Basically, the gun is good, the ammunition is good, the shooting angle, environment—all factors are as good as they can be.

Under these circumstances, the chance of missing is nearly zero; if any shot didn't hit the head, the sniper is just too unskilled!

But the result is obvious—nothing happened at all!

The only conclusion is——the sniper showed mercy.

He deliberately let him go!

Yes!

He deliberately didn't kill!

After analysis by criminal psychologists and professional officers, everyone agreed this was not a murder case!

The other side had no intention to kill him; they merely wanted to intimidate him!

If they wanted to kill him, even with dozens of bodyguards, the first shot would have taken him down under those circumstances.

He deliberately missed four shots in a row just to scare Xiao Feng into wetting his pants, frightening him so much he would never dare offend the other side again.

Through such intimidation, he let Xiao Feng know that the person behind it had full confidence to kill him, but was merely giving him a chance to live on purpose.

However…

Such an explanation, Xiao Feng

He felt it was somewhat unreasonable.

Invincible Under Heaven couldn't possibly be such a person!

This isn't just being lenient; it's pure stupidity!

Do you need to call in a sniper to intimidate someone?

A beating with a sack over the head is enough!

This matter is obviously not that simple; there must be some details they don't know about.

As for the identity of the mastermind behind it, Xiao Feng is basically certain it's Invincible Under Heaven.

He told the police his idea, and the police said they would help handle it.

But without evidence, they could only question him, with no authority to investigate or accuse.

At around 11 a. m., Xiao Feng returned to his residence.

He wasted the whole morning like that, and even at lunchtime he felt as if he were dreaming.

Zhang Fan and Li Li were comforting him, telling him not to be afraid, to relax, and that nothing would happen.

In fact, Xiao Feng wasn't really afraid; he just found the situation outrageous and somewhat hard to understand.

"If this kind of thing happens once, there will likely be a second time. I feel the other side isn't joking; they'll probably come again."

He said to the two brothers.

"As long as we stay home and have all-around protection, with so many bodyguards, unless they come in a tank, they can't threaten us." Li Li comforted him.

That statement is actually true.

The second batch of security personnel has already arrived; now there are dozens of bodyguards near Xiao Feng's residence.

Moreover, this is with rotating shifts, so the total number of bodyguards exceeds 100.

Trying to break through this defense and sneak in is basically impossible.

"Forget it, lay low for a few days and first watch the World Guild's movements." Xiao Feng sighed.

Such things still mess with one's state of mind a bit.

Although he wasn't hurt at all, looking back, he inevitably felt some lingering fear.

If those four bullets hadn't missed, wouldn't he be dead?

After lunch, Xiao Feng and the others rested for a while.

With nothing else going on, they decided to go back into the game.

Speaking of which, wasting a morning meant three days had passed in the game.

Xiao Feng returned to the bedroom, closed the windows, drew the curtains, and the whole room was pitch dark, like night.

This incident made him more wary, and it's also a lesson learned.

He lay on the big bed, closed his eyes, silently recited the Myriad Heavens World, and returned to the game.
