Chapter 24 Shooting
聽 聽聽Carter had been brushing up on the forums during his hospitalization. Discussion threads about Janet were trendy on the forums, and everyone was researching the 1,200 spirit value, fifth-class citizen.
聽 聽聽S-rank spirit value, fifth class citizen. The two keywords turned Janet into a star.
聽 聽聽Even if Janet's physical condition was poor, her superhigh spiritual value would allow her to easily enter the Operations Department.
聽 聽聽Whether Janet would choose the Combat Department or the Cleanup Department became a mystery聽that everyone聽wanted to know.
聽 聽聽Before Janet made her choice, some people even placed bets.
聽 聽However, Janet聽actually聽didn't choose to hunt, which is a higher-paying job.
聽 聽聽She still chose to continue sweeping trash.
聽 聽聽And she still chose Sherry's group.
聽 聽聽Sherry was a bit flattered.
聽 聽聽Janet explained, "I'm a coward. I can't be a hunter."
聽 聽聽Sherry: "銆傘€傘€傘€傘€傘€�"
聽 聽聽Carter: "銆傘€傘€傘€傘€傘€�"
聽 聽聽Sherry had watched the video of Janet and Carter countless times.
聽 聽Janet's guts were out of this world, to say the least. It was simply rare for a first-time contaminant to have that quality.
聽 聽聽Janet continued against both of their skeptical gazes, "I'm afraid of dying."
聽 聽聽Janet had analyzed that she could come into contact with the contaminant by sweeping up trash, but hunters were the ones who fought the charge, and it was easy to get killed.
聽 聽聽Being a logistics executive could avoid most of the risks; Janet had died once, and聽she didn't want to die again so soon.
聽 聽聽Moreover,聽the job of聽sweeping up trash can fulfill many of Janet's needs.
聽 聽聽1. She can collect contaminated spores, thus collecting purification value.
聽 聽聽2. She doesn't have to face danger, but she does have access to the contaminant.
聽 聽聽3. Her salary is not low; it can support her in injecting genetic potion.
聽 聽聽Sherry nodded. That was聽actually聽a good reason.
聽 聽聽Janet was Defect, so her physical condition was lacking.
聽 聽聽Janet exclaimed, "I love sweeping up trash!"
聽 聽聽Carter was rather excited, "You said you loved the job before, and I choose to take you at your word today!"
聽 聽聽Carter didn't seem to know how to describe Janet's spirit.
聽 聽聽In this part of the world, the chance to become a hunter was an invaluable opportunity, and for Janet to pass it up, she probably didn't think much of the money聽at all.
聽 聽聽Janet didn't know how to explain it, so she digressed, "By the way, what is the content of our staff training?"
聽 聽聽Sherry: "Shooting, fighting, physical training, theory basics, and how to hunt contaminants. There are five courses in total."
聽Why did all this sound like a hunter's class schedule?
聽 聽聽Sherry explained, "Because of you, we have made a series of reforms at the Area 103 Cleaning Center."
聽 聽聽Janet: " What?"
聽 聽聽Sherry said, "Previously, only hunters were required to have weapons聽training聽and physical training."
聽 聽聽Janet knew about this. She had seen Carter shoot a gun, and his skills sucked.
聽 聽聽Sherry said, "Now we need to standardize weapons training and physical training with the hunters. Because of the last accident you had with Carter, the center wants to improve the cleaners' survival chances in this extreme situation."
聽 聽聽This聽was the result of a meeting and discussion between several department heads.
聽 聽聽Sherry continued, "We need to have mixed training with the hunters, with the aim that the hunters can inspire us to fight. Of course, the hunters will also have to go through the cleaner course so they can help shelter the contaminated spores if necessary and clean up the site."
聽 聽聽Janet: "OMG!"
聽 聽聽In other words, with her arrival, the hunters who despised sweeping up trash would need to learn to do so.
聽 聽聽And it will also make the hunters and cleaners train in one place. In that case, the cleaner would get beaten up pretty badly by the hunter in the fighting class.
聽 聽聽The cleaners' physical ability and all aspects of their qualities were already inferior to those of the hunters, and the original logistic troops just had to do their job of sweeping the trash.
聽 聽聽Now, they had to learn to eliminate contaminants as well.
聽 聽聽No wonder Janet could sense something as soon as she walked through the door.
聽 聽聽It turned out to be everyone's hatred.
聽 聽聽Janet whispered, "Do our coworkers聽kind of聽hate me right now?"
聽 聽聽Carter was already tempted to run away, clutching a bouquet of roses, "Do they hate me too?"
聽 聽聽"That's not true," Sherry said, "Carter is the victim. It's聽basically聽all about Janet."
聽 聽聽Sherry was very honest and upstanding when she told Janet, "Yes, a lot of people are calling you names."
聽 聽聽Janet "SHIT."
聽 聽聽Janet walked stiffly into the 45th-floor training arena.
,
聽 聽聽Sherry was completely unaware of how much stress her words were causing Janet. She continued to dutifully explain, "But our training is for credit; just take enough credits."
聽 聽聽"Janet will start the training today. Carter has just been discharged from the hospital and will observe the process first. Now we'll start with shooting," Sherry said to Janet聽"I聽remember you shooting well."
聽 聽聽She had seen Janet shoot before,聽which聽was a very good shot;聽she didn't have to worry about that.
聽 聽聽Quite a few people were training in the shooting room. When Janet walked in, she once again felt the hate from everyone.
聽 聽聽The shooting room was boisterous, with the sound of shooting and shells falling.
聽 聽聽Janet observed their training for a while.
聽 聽聽It wasn't air bullets that were used for training, these bullets were obviously more powerful and had more recoil.
聽 聽聽This training test measured not only the accuracy of the shooting but also the individual's speed of changing bullets and reaction ability.
聽 聽聽The appearance of this gun was more like that of Janet's original world.
聽 聽聽"Janet," Sherry held a panel next to her and waited for her, "It's your turn."
聽 聽聽There were three types of tests: target shooting, moving targets, and a simulation room.
聽 聽聽Just as Janet arrived, everyone聽next to聽her stopped training and looked this way.
聽 聽聽There was no way. Janet was too famous. They all wanted to see what level this Defect with a spirit value聽of聽1200 was at.
聽 聽聽Janet walked over to them with no expression on her face and then picked up the gun.
聽 聽聽The moment she got the gun Defect, she felt incredibly relaxed.
聽 聽聽In front of her was a dead target, twenty meters and meters away.
聽 聽聽Janet picked up the gun, aimed, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger.
聽 聽聽Bang.
聽 聽聽The bullet spun out and hit the center of the red center.
聽 聽聽鈥淭en." The training room teacher read out the score.
聽 聽聽"You have to fire three shots." Sherry reminded.
聽 聽聽Janet didn't say anything as she aimed at the target聽in front of聽her and pulled the trigger again.
聽 聽聽"Ten."
聽 聽聽"Ten." The training room teacher calmly read out the score.
聽 聽聽The people watching from the side didn't say anything for a moment. One shot could be lucky, but three ten rings was a real score.
聽 聽聽Carter stood in the crowd holding the flowers, looking聽just聽like Janet's cheerleader.
聽 聽聽Carter glanced over his shoulder as the crowd of onlookers grew. At times like this, people usually felt pressure.
聽 聽聽But Janet didn't seem to; she聽just聽aimed and fired without expression.
聽 聽聽And then hit the ten ring.
聽 聽聽Not bad for Janet.
聽 聽聽"AWESOME!" someone on the side murmured.
聽 聽聽But quite a few hunters were present. They had all been professionally trained, and three shots with ten rings wasn't hard.
聽 聽聽What was hard was the last two.
聽 聽聽"There's no rush; we need to see her scores on the latter two." A man watched the battle with his arms wrapped around him.
聽 聽聽Even Carter was feeling the pressure now. If Janet missed the following two items, it could cause trouble.
聽 聽聽Given how hot she was right now, she would be poorly scolded on the Internet if she didn't do well in the latter two.
聽 聽聽However, Janet didn't care聽at all聽about the gazes of the people next to her and just immersed herself in her聽own聽world.
聽 聽聽She often got her gun and ignored everything around her.
聽 聽聽The second program was the moving target.
聽 聽聽The moving target was not a mark but a robot.
聽 聽聽
The target robot would dash around the field, hiding behind various bunkers.
聽 聽聽Janet needed to hit the Robot, scoring different points for hitting in other locations.
聽 聽聽Several obstacles were placed in the center of the field, and the staff even dimmed the lights for a realistic simulation.
聽 聽聽" Start." The shooting teacher shouted.
聽 聽聽There was silence all around as they looked nervously at Janet.
聽 聽聽A figure quickly ran past in front of her.
聽 聽聽Janet raised her gun but didn't fire. She watched as the robot ran to the opposite bunker.
聽 聽聽Some of them began to discuss in whispers why Janet had not done anything when she could have just been fired.
聽 聽聽Was it because the robot was too human-like that Janet couldn't bear to do it?
聽 聽聽But in the video, Janet could have very calmly shot Fishman. That doesn't make sense.
聽 聽聽Janet was slow to move. She just maintained her shooting stance.
聽 聽聽Suddenly, the robot in the field moved.
聽 聽聽It was set up with an automatic program that required it to keep running around the grounds to get people to shoot.
聽 聽At that moment, the robot stuck out its head.聽
It was now!聽
聽 聽聽Janet pulled the trigger.
聽 聽聽Bang.
聽 聽聽The bullet pierced the robot's brow, and the robot fell backward.
聽 聽聽"Head," said the shooting teacher, "ten out of ten."
聽 聽聽So that's what it was, the crowd thought to themselves. Janet could have hit it earlier, but the shot couldn't hit the head.
聽 聽聽Top marks for what Janet wanted.
聽 聽聽Now, it wasn't just the people in the shooting room聽who were聽watching the battle; people from other training rooms were coming, too.
聽 聽聽The shooting room was packed with people for a while.
聽 聽聽The third test is the simulation room.
聽 聽聽Janet needed to change her sniper rifle and put on her helmet. The field聽in front of聽her eyes also turned into a holographic projection, a more advanced and realistic training scenario.
聽 聽聽The target of shooting became a variety of contaminants.
聽 聽聽The rule in the simulation room was that the more contaminants you hit within five minutes, the higher the score.
聽 聽聽It was a bit like playing a game in Janet's eyes, but more straightforward.
聽 聽聽Five minutes I was passed.
聽 聽聽Janet took off her helmet just in time to hear the shooting teacher report the score: "Five minutes to hunt 19 contaminants, tying the best all-time record in the training room."
聽 聽聽So easy?
聽 聽聽Before Janet could react, Carter next to her was even more excited than she was and exclaimed, "Janet, you're amazing!"
聽 聽聽There was a steady stream of people whistling at her and others applauding.
聽"Bravo!"
聽 聽聽"Sharpshooter!"
聽 聽聽Janet then saw that so many people surrounded her.
聽 聽聽"A mental value of 1200 is something."
聽 聽聽"I heard that you need a stable spirit value to shoot a gun, so it's true."
聽 聽聽"Why on earth didn't she become a hunter?"
聽 聽聽"Too bad."
聽 聽聽There was a strange sense of pride for the first time in Carter's job; it was the first proud moment for their cleaners.
聽 聽聽It was so reassuring when Janet fired her gun.
聽 聽聽"Move over," Carter said as he escorted Janet out the door, "we're going to the next training room."
聽 聽聽Janet walked out of the training room with a cold face and a great deal of inner panic.
聽This is mainly because these people were rolling their eyes at her half an hour ago, and now they were聽clapping for her.
聽 聽聽And that's just because they had watched her training session.
聽 聽聽When she left the training room, Carter said excitedly, "You're a good shot."
聽 聽聽Janet said casually, "I used to be a professional shooter."
聽 聽聽Carter: "OMG."聽
