Winner Takes All

Chapter 892 The Swordmanship of Blocking Bullets!



"Just going back to the basic only."

Achilles smiled meaningfully. Then, he signalled Jack to follow him, heading towards the Dragon Cavalry Sword's drilling formation.

The yelling sounds were ear-splitting, hitting around like waves.

It seemed like each of the soldiers could surge the winds and snow just by waving their swords.

The square formation was shrouded in glaring lights.

The cold wind blew while snowflakes were whirling down.

All the soldiers were half-naked, showing off their well-built muscles.

They could not feel the chilliness even when snowflakes fell on them.

Instead, the snowflakes turned into water vapour and instantly evaporated as soon as they landed on the soldier's body.

Everyone seemed like a burning furnace. Visible heat could be seen on their naked upper bodies and top of their head when they were waving the Dragon Cavalry sword. "This marvellous body physique is a result from persistent training, time after time."

Jack was shocked. He was confident with his own body physique, and it should not be any weaker than these soldiers who were training on the Dragon Cavalry Sword. But he knew very well.

His had gotten his current strength and ability through an accident. However, for these soldiers, they gained their strong power through relentless training, over and over again, and also through countless of life and death encounters.

While he was still in a daze.

Achilles came back with a Dragon Cavalry Sword and a rifle.

"Try it out?"

Achilles threw the rifle into Jack's hand.

Then, he moved his mountainous body and stepped half a step backwards, dragging the Dragon Cavalry Sword along with him.

This scene did not attract any attraction from the soldiers.

Everyone was focused on their own drills.

In the eyes of the veteran Dragon Cavalry soldiers, what was happening between Jack and Achilles was more than familiar. They were used to this kind of situation.

Almost all of the new recruits, including these veterans, had the same kind of doubt when they first joined the Dragon Cavalry.

And going through Jack and Achilles' method was the best way to bust the myth.

Jack raised the rifle and looked hesitantly at Achilles, "Should I spray the bullets or just shoot it point-blank?"

"Either is fine!"

Achilles smiled proudly, "Are you worried that I can no longer lift this thing?"

Jack shook his head.

As the former Chief Guard, how could it be possible that he could no longer lift the Dragon Cavalry Sword?

As the second highest rank office in the Dragon Cavalry, it was not only an iconic title. Instead, it also meant his power capabilities as well!

To be very frank.

Achilles was a person far more superior than the Twelve Golden Guards. Among the three hundred thousand people in the Dragon Cavalry, the only person who could overpower him would be Zenith.

However.

Before Jack could fire the shot.

Boom!

A loud gunshot suddenly echoed through the sky of Thegiant city.

The sudden gunshot instantly silenced the huge drilling ground.

A whizzing sound could be heard tearing through the wind.

Jack's expression immediately changed. In his vision, he could see a bullet flying towards Achilles under the bright light of the drilling grounds.

Achilles' eyes widen when he heard the sudden gunshot.

But.

In that split second.

Achilles was still in his initial position where he dragged the sword and backstepped. However, at that instant before the bullet arrived, he quickly turned his body, lifted the bulky Dragon Cavalry Sword up with his right hand and positioned it tightly on his back.

Clang!

The bullet collided on the thick blade of the Dragon Cavalry Sword and sparks sprayed around. The bullet then dropped onto the snowy ground.

Everything happened in a flash.

Jack was dazed while it all happened.

He only got back his sense when Achilles slowly removed the Dragon Cavalry Sword from his back.

However, in Jack's eyes, Achilles was not looking at Jack. He was gazing at the direction where the bullet came, and his eyes was sparkling with excitement.

At the very next second.

Achilles took a step back and dragged the sword again, as if this were the first move for the Dragon Cavalry Sword Swordmanship.

"Look carefully!"

Achilles' hoarse voice transmitted in Jack's ears.

Jack immediately looked towards the direction where Achilles was staring at. A massive figure could be seen standing still faraway in the wind and snow. However, it was too far so he couldn't really tell who the person was.

At the same time.

Everyone at the drilling ground, including the new recruits and veteran officers, all looked towards the figure standing firmly in the wind and snow.

In that moment

some of them we confused, like how Jack was; however, some of the others vagu knew who or what that figure was. Just like Achilles, their eyes started gleaming well.

At the next second.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

...

A series of gunshots were heard one after another over the drilling grounds.

Like meteor crashing through the sky, the bullets headed straight towards Achilles.

At that moment, Jack felt as if his heart was in his mouth.

The series of shots were fired without a pause in between.

So, it meant that if Achilles were to try and block all three bullets, he must not pause in between. Even between changing Swordmanships, the time should be shorter than the time at which the two bullets were connected.

That being said.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

Achilles twisted his massive body, swiftly swinging the Dragon Cavalry Sword in his hands as if it was a feather.

Sparks burst out from the thick blade of the Dragon Cavalry Sword, like fireworks bursting in the snow.

Jack tightened his pupils and paid full attention, observing Achilles' movement in detail.

Unlike watching the soldiers who practiced their Dragon Cavalry Sword's Swordmanship at the drilling ground, Jack had a different perception when he witnessed how Achilles blocked bullets using the sword in real-time.

In his sight.

Achilles was moving, swinging the Dragon Cavalry Sword, accurately blocking all the bullets that was aimed at him.

However, in his eyes, Achilles' movement, footsteps, and the way he handled the Dragon Cavalry Sword, was all perfect to the core.

Which is to say, at the very beginning, Achilles had already known the bullet's trajectory path was coming from in the first place. All he had to do was use the thick and wide blade of the Dragon Cavalry Sword and make some slight adjustments in order to block the bullets.

Jack's eye brightened up.

He exclaimed, "Amazing! Once the bullet is fired, the trajectory path mush be a straight line. Once we know where the bullet is coming from and determine the trajectory path, with some small adjustments we can definitely block the bullets. It would be harder to block them during assassinations, but on the battlefield, the enemy would be right in front of us, hence, the bullets... would come from the front as well!"

However.

As soon as he finished his sentence.

Achilles' thick voice suddenly appeared, "If it was a scuffle, do you think it will be that simple?"

Jack thought he already knew the ins and outs of block bullets with the Dragon Cavalry Sword. However, Achilles' words threw him into a confused state once again.

In a flash.

Boom!

Boom!

Two more gunshots echoed through the air.

And this time, Jack felt goose bumps all over his skin. His body trembled and he tightened his pupils to the extreme.

Because he could tell from the sound that the two gunshots were not shot from the standing figure.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

It was... shot simultaneously from two different directions!

How could he block two bullets at once?

The Dragon Cavalry Sword could only rely on the thick and wide blade to block the bullets from one direction. If gunshots were fired from two different directions, it meant that if Achilles chose to block the bullet from one direction, the other bullet will definitely hit him.

"Now look closely!"

Almost at the same time when the gunshots were heard, Achilles' proud laughter blew up in Jack's ears.

At the next second.

From his initial backstep, Achilles moved backwards even more. Then, with his right hand, he grabbed the handle of the Dragon Cavalry Sword backhandedly.

In the nick of time.

Achilles let out a loud roar, thundering through Thegiant city.

Boom!

The muscles on Achilles right arm bulged up, as if there was a dragon in his arm. Using his back hand, he drew the sword out furiously. Then, with a tremendous speed, he dragged the Dragon Cavalry Sword along with him as he quickly spun in the air, creating a vortex.

Clang!

Sparks sprinkled around when the bullet coming from the front was blocked by the Dragon Cavalry Sword.

Following that.

Clang!

Sparks were seen again, and the bullet coming from behind dropped to the ground.

"How...is this even possible?!"

At this moment, Jack was dumbfounded. He stared at Achilles in disbelief, and he could feel the tingles on his head.0000
