The leader's body flew backward and slammed into the base of the Ferris wheel. His back came into close contact with the steel frame, and it hurt just by looking at it.
However, Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows. With the power of the Barrett's bullet, the target's body should have been cut in half after hitting the target instead of flying backward like he was hit by a train. Zhang Heng also noticed that the leader could still move after hitting the base of the Ferris wheel.
Enduring the pain, he got up from the ground and flipped to the other side of the base. His two companions had determined the sniper's approximate location through the shot. However, they were too far away to fight back. Hence, they had to find cover to hide.
On the other side, Maitreya's voice came from the communicator. "He may be wearing the latest generation of bulletproof vest. It hasn't been mass-produced yet, but it has been reported in the news. It is said that it can evenly distribute the force coming from a certain point to all parts of the body, thereby resisting large-caliber bullets."
"I noticed it too," Zhang Heng said. "But if he takes another shot, his ribs won't be able to hold up anymore.
While Zhang Heng was talking, the man hiding in the control room on the other side also made a move. He opened his backpack and took out a black box from it. The box was filled with various parts, and the man skillfully assembled them together. Finally, they formed a rifle. The rifle was only two-thirds the length and size of an ordinary rifle, but it had a dangerous luster to it.
After that, the man in the control room carefully took out a box of bullets at the bottom of the box. There were only twelve rounds, and they were made of a special material that was different from ordinary bullets. The man in the control room loaded them into the magazine one by one, took a deep breath, and quickly got up.
Unlike ordinary snipers, he barely aimed, measured the wind speed, and paid attention to things like humidity and air pressure. All he did was shoot in the direction of the pirate ship, and he quickly crouched down.
But the next moment, a violent explosion came from the direction of the pirate ship. Flames rose into the sky, and soon, the entire cabin was engulfed.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, no one would have thought that a mere bullet could cause a terrifying explosion that was comparable to a rocket launcher hitting a target.
Maitreya was stunned after witnessing this scene. The reason Zhang Heng chose to snipe the target from two kilometers away was to ensure his safety as much as possible. At such a distance, only the best sniper could hit the target. Even if the enemy had a sniper, it would be difficult for them to make a difference.
However, no one expected that the three emergency response team members, who seemed to be lightly armed, would carry heavy weapons. Unable to determine Zhang Heng's specific location, they decided to blow up the entire pirate ship.
Looking at the pirate ship that had turned into a sea of fire, Maitreya could not help but worry about Zhang Heng. Although Zhang Heng was not in the center of the sea of fire, the flying sawdust and parts produced when the pirate ship exploded were extremely fatal. As long as one hit Zhang Heng, he would probably be dead.
There was a hint of hesitation in Maitreya's eyes. He wanted to check on Zhang Heng's situation, but he remembered Zhang Heng's instructions. So, he stayed where he was and stared at the three people under the Ferris wheel.
After the man in the control room heard the explosion, he poked his head out to take a look. After that, the female companion on the other side also poked her head out. After a while, after confirming that nothing had happened, the leader carefully climbed out from behind the pedestal.
He gestured to the two companions beside him, asking them to go to the pirate ship to confirm whether the target was dead or alive.
But at the next moment, the terrifying gunshot sounded again. After that, the man in the control room saw his captain's body flying backward again. This time, he wasn't as lucky as before. Although the latest generation of bulletproof vest saved his life again, his ribs, which were already cracked, couldn't hold on any longer after the new impact.
The leader's body slammed into the pedestal of the Ferris wheel again. This time, at least four or five of his ribs were broken. Although he gritted his teeth and climbed back to the pedestal, he looked a lot more sluggish after this experience. His movements had also become slower, and he had lost at least half of his strength.
At the same time, the three people in the control room became nervous again.
The man in the control room fired another shot in the direction where the bullet came from, blowing up another merry-go-round. However, with the previous experience, he did not think that this level of explosion would be enough to kill the enemy this time.
Maitreya's surprised voice came from Zhang Heng's headset. "You are fine! That's great! How did you escape from that sea of fire?! "
"I wasn't on that ship."
Knowing that the other party was also an expert marksman, Zhang Heng did not take any chances after firing the shot. He immediately evacuated from the exposed position. Of course, the subsequent explosion was a little unexpected. When the explosion happened, he was already close to the merry-go-round.
Now that Zhang Heng was moving to the next location, the three people under the Ferris wheel suddenly felt the pressure.
The presence of such a ghost-like sniper, who would change his position every time he fired a shot, put a lot of pressure on everyone's spirits. No one knew where Zhang Heng was right now, and when Barrett's gunshot would be heard again. All three of them could do now was hide behind cover.
But this was obviously not the way to go. Except for the man in the control room, the other two were not in an enclosed environment. Sooner or later, Zhang Heng would move to a place where he could attack them, especially the leader. His current physical condition was terrible. Even if he wore a bulletproof vest, he would most likely die if he was shot again.
Just as Zhang Heng was looking for the next shooting point, Maitreya's voice suddenly came from the headset again. This time, he only said two words, "Sorry."
After that, Zhang Heng heard an explosion coming from the southwest corner of the amusement park. It was also the place where he parked his car. However, Zhang Heng's expression did not change. He calmly asked, "What do you mean?"
"Just twenty minutes ago, the emergency response team just killed the eighth courier. So now we are their only target. They sent three more people to the amusement park, and two more teams of police officers. But don't worry. I will stay here with you to deal with them," Maitreya said.
"It seems that you have made up your mind to sacrifice yourself. But since you want me to stay here with you, who will be responsible for delivering the goods back to the first floor?" Zhang Heng asked.
"This is no longer important," Maitreya said. "Sorry, I know you don't believe in the meaning of what we are doing, but I can assure you that everything is worth it."
