Chapter 1667 [Fufu's Bizarre Adventure 59] Just Shoot and It's Over

Chapter 1667 [Fufu's Bizarre Adventure 59] *** Just shoot randomly and it's over

The hunter training ground in Jiangbo Village is located on the edge of the village.

Fu Fu originally thought that the facilities in the training ground here would be rather simple, but after coming here with Sayer's guidance, she discovered that the training facilities here were in no way worse than those in big cities.

Apart from rare gadgets like steam-powered mechanical beasts, all other equipment can be said to be available.

But Fu Fu doesn't need those, she just comes here to practice the new weapons.

Sail led her to a solid wooden target pile covered with bullet holes and knife marks. Looking at the huge target pile that was one meter thick, Fu Fu nodded with satisfaction.

Walk to a position about 20 meters away from the target and move your arms and shoulders.

Twenty to fifty meters is a relatively normal combat distance for bow hunters.

I heard from the craftsman before that the range of the deer antler slingshot is not as good as that of the regular hunting bow, so let's take the lowest value of 20 meters.

Anyway, if it was a regular bow and arrow, she would be very confident about the distance.

Fu Fu reached for the quiver, but instead of grabbing multiple pellets at once, she just picked up one and placed it on the rubber band.

Not counting the time she broke the window glass in the workshop just now, this was her first time using this weapon.

What's with the scattered rapid-fire? Let's not play the difficult ones for now. Yupa and the others are watching us. It would be so embarrassing if we act too arrogantly and make a fool of ourselves.

Just one is enough, one is more certain!

"Alright!"

Fu Fu shouted softly, pulled the rubber band in one breath, and fired the bullet out.

With a slight "whoosh" sound, the bullet missed the target.

The scene was quiet for a few seconds.

Fu Fu laughed dryly, "Ha, ha ha. The feel of this thing is a little different from a regular hunting bow. I'm not very experienced yet, so it's normal that I missed the target by a little bit."

Sai Er smiled awkwardly but politely, "Normal, normal."

"You missed the target by at least thirty degrees, meow." Fishpak said mercilessly, "Even if it wasn't a target but a large flying dragon, you still missed it.

This is a 20-meter target! I don’t understand, how did you do it? "

"Shut up! I told you it's because you're not used to it yet!"

Fu Fu blushed, gritted her teeth, took out another bullet, and tried to aim well.

But a slingshot is not like a bow and arrow, which can be aimed with the help of the arrow shaft. It also does not have a crosshair like a crossbow, and accuracy is almost entirely based on feeling.

Not surprisingly, she missed the target again.

"I understand the principle, but how did you shoot that shot onto the ground?"

"Ahhhh!"

Fu Fu, who didn't believe in evil, screamed and fired bullets one after another.

Some of them happened to hit the target, but most of them flew to unknown places.

"You've mastered the art of rapid-fire without caring about accuracy." Yupai licked the pad of his paw and continued in a sarcastic tone.

Fu Fu paused in her shooting motion, her expression twisted, and she turned around, "Have you ever heard of this saying - before you learn to walk, you might as well try to run first."

Sai Er, who had been standing awkwardly for a long time, quickly responded, "Ah, I've heard that before!"

Fu Fu ignored him, raised the slingshot in her hand, and aimed at the fish. "So, after all, we should start with a moving target."

Fish Chop was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was going to do, and the hair on his tail stood up, "What are you going to do, you pig?! It's illegal to point a hunter's weapon at people!"

Fu Fu grinned, "But you are not a human."

"call out--"

A bullet whizzed past Fish Chop's head, sending his fake pigtails flying.

"Are you serious?!"

Fu Fu stared, thinking to herself that it was a close call. She had clearly aimed at a farther place, so how could it be a graze?

Of course, it was impossible to give in verbally. Fu Fu said sinisterly, "Why don't you try to be sarcastic again?"

The fish raised its claws decisively to show surrender.

Although it is just a hollow training bullet with little killing power, it will still hurt if it really hits the body.

"calm down!"

Saier quickly took this opportunity to smooth things over, "My mother-in-law also said that the slingshot can almost be considered another weapon. It's normal to feel uncomfortable when you first start using it. Just practice more at the target and you'll be fine!"

Fu Fu snorted coldly, walked down the stairs and continued practicing on the target. Yu Pa also wisely shut his mouth.

After a period of practice, Fu Fu gradually mastered some skills. Although she still missed the target from time to time, at least she wouldn't be too far off the mark.

At the same time, she discovered that the failure of the single-shot bullet to hit the target did not seem to be entirely her problem.

Deer antler slingshots are not only very different from conventional hunting bows, but also different from ordinary slingshots.

In order to facilitate the firing of multiple projectiles at one time, there is a fist-sized leather bag at the end of the rubber band of the deer antler slingshot. When firing, the projectile rolls and collides in the leather bag, causing the trajectory to be erratic.

She tried to put several bullets into the leather bag at once and fired them out together. The random scattering of the bullets still existed, but the number of bullets made up for this defect.

Her experience in archery training made her mistakenly believe that single-shot shooting must be easier than concentrated shooting, but this thing is designed entirely for scattering.

Every time she shot a handful of bullets, one or two would always hit the target, and the rest would be scattered within a few meters.

This means that if the target is replaced with a large monster, the situation will still occur where you aim at the stomach but end up shooting at the butt.

But most of the bullets hit the target, right?

At worst, you can just get closer and shoot randomly and be done with it. To hell with precision sniping!

Well. Anyway, I can't let my dad see this thing. He will go crazy with his obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Fu Fu quickly shot the bullet in her hand and reached for the quiver at her waist, but found nothing.

This made her realize a problem. If multiple bullets were fired at one time and the firing rate was increased, the speed at which the bullets were consumed would be very alarming.

It seems that preparing ammunition will be an important task in the future.

"Come on, brothers, give us a hand and let's go eat something delicious later. We'll treat you." Fu Fu called out.

The two men and the cat bent down and searched for the training bullets scattered around.

The pellets of the deer antler slingshot are not as easy to damage as arrows, but they are too small and easy to lose. The two people and the cat put in a lot of effort and finally found most of them.

Fish Claw held a pellet and tossed it between his paws, "I don't know how different this kind of pellet is from the one used in actual combat.

If it's not too complicated, we can buy the materials and make it ourselves."

Fu Fu waved her hand to catch the bullet, "Of course I have to make it myself, it's not like I don't know how to blend and alchemy.

"Well, most of the projectiles are supposed to be explosive projectiles with the greatest destructive power, right? Do you think it would be useful to stuff dragon-killing carbon into them?"

"What is Dragon Killer Carbon?" Saier was confused.

"What's wrong with your brain?" The fur on Fish Chop's body stood up again. "The range of a slingshot to shoot a supernova is not as good as its killing radius!"

"It's not that exaggerated. There's only a few charges in one bullet." Fu Fu waved her hand, "But the materials are indeed too difficult to obtain. We can't get them at our current level.

Isn't there something that is more powerful than ordinary gunpowder, is small in size, easy to get, and can be easily mass-produced?"

Yu Pai shuddered when he heard this.

Is there really such a thing, meow?

P.S. Make some adjustments to the power of the antler slingshot, otherwise I really can't imagine how a slingshot can pose a threat to large monsters.

Of course, it won't be too exaggerated, otherwise there will be no need for other weapons to exist.
