The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 344: Chapter 344: A Risky Move

Crawling along the route, Lin Tian smoothly arrived behind the sniper.

He made the temperature of his body and the sound of his breathing completely still.

The closer he got, the more cautious he needed to be, to prevent being discovered and causing unnecessary trouble.

From the moment Lin Tian stepped onto the second floor until now, seemingly a long time had passed, but in truth, it was only a matter of seconds.

He reached the sniper’s back at maximum speed while controlling his body to restrict all actions that could lead to being discovered!

After doing all this, Lin Tian continued to move forward.

Now, he was half an arm’s length away from the sniper. The only thing left to do was to crawl to the sniper’s side and then make his move!

”Huh?” Just as Lin Tian was slowly moving closer, the sniper’s brow suddenly twitched, alerting his instincts.

His head turned toward Lin Tian’s direction, only to find nothing there.

”What’s going on? Is someone there?”

Just now, the hair on his body stood on end, as if something had locked onto him!

He was always confident in his instincts!

These elites all climbed out of piles of bodies and rivers of blood, and none could compare to their sense of danger!

He did not doubt his recent instinct at all; if this situation occurred, then there definitely was something happening!

His eyes began to search carefully; tonight was critical, and these Celestial Dragon Continent artifacts could not be lost!

They had trekked over mountains and crossed waters from their own country to the Celestial Dragon Continent, with the sole mission of guarding these Celestial Dragon Continent artifacts!

As a sniper, the only rule in their minds was that whatever task the superior assigned, they had to do it to the best of their ability, and this mission was to kill anyone with designs on these Celestial Dragon Continent artifacts!

”Luckily, I wasn’t discovered!” The sniper’s actions scared Lin Tian so much that his back broke out in a cold sweat. If not for this invisibility cloak, he might have been completely exposed!

He had only slightly moved just now, and it almost led to his discovery!

This sharp intuition was truly admirable!

But now was not the time to dwell on such thoughts; accelerating the progress and doing what needed to be done was key!

Of course, in doing these things, Lin Tian was extremely careful!

Don’t forget that Ye Feng and Chen Moxiang and others were watching!

The monitors could only see the red dots projected by satellites, thus they were unaware of the situation within!

This was also why Lin Tian dared to approach so boldly. Otherwise, his current actions and the sniper turning his head to observe would have exposed him instantly!

He didn’t have much time; the five areas of artifacts needed handling, and if Zhuoda Village people reacted, completing the mission would only mean exposure!

This was not a situation Lin Tian wanted to see, so he had to resolve it quickly!

”Lin Tian, you’re taking too much of a risk!” Ye Feng, watching the monitor intently, was sweating profusely; Lin Tian’s actions seemed extremely reckless to him!

Even though Lin Tian’s current distance was quite far from the sniper, if he suddenly charged, he could still catch the opponent off guard!

In his speculation, he naturally understood what Lin Tian intended to do; he was no doubt worried about being too far away to resolve it instantly, which could alert another sniper!

But compared to Lin Tian’s current behavior, suddenly charging and taking the opponent down was much more reliable!

”This could very well expose your location and let these snipers know where you are, and one careless move could cost your life!” Ye Feng’s tone was very grave, unwilling to let Lin Tian take risks.

”No worries, let me try!” Lin Tian said in a low voice, using a volume only he could hear.

His equipped headphones and microphone were the most advanced, capable of amplifying even the smallest sounds, allowing Ye Feng and others to receive them!

”You’re taking too much of a risk doing this!” Ye Feng pondered for a moment, hesitating countless times before finally speaking: ”Since you want to do it this way, then give it a try, but don’t act impulsively; you are the main force in this operation, absolutely no mistakes allowed.”

”Alright, I understand!” Lin Tian replied affirmatively. Ye Feng thought he wanted to take risks, but that wasn’t the case, so he was not as worried as Ye Feng.

He advanced cautiously, finally leveling with the sniper after a few seconds.

”Move!” Lin Tian whispered to himself, simultaneously raising his left hand, carrying great force, and striking toward the sniper!

”Whoosh!” The piercing sound of a fist breaking through the air suddenly rang out, and the sniper’s reaction was nothing short of swift!

Though he wasn’t looking this way, he still decisively dodged!

His body didn’t move, nor did he make any sound, but his head swiftly tried to evade!

After doing this, he scrutinized the position on the left!

”Nothing, what’s the situation?!” The sniper’s heart skipped a beat, for in his field of vision, there was absolutely nothing!

But the whooshing sound remained, filling him with terror; could it be a ghost?!

”Gulp!” He swallowed hard, convinced he had truly encountered something supernatural!

As a soldier, he had always scoffed at tales of ghosts and gods, being accustomed to great upheavals!

But what happened today completely overturned his understanding!

These events seemed to last a long time, but it was merely an instant!

”Bang...Uh...!” Clearly, no one could answer his doubts, and just as curiosity and fear rose in his heart, Lin Tian’s fist landed on his head!

He didn’t even have the chance to issue a warning, merely letting out a muffled grunt as his head slumped, and his body lay still on the rifle!

”Handled!” Lin Tian spoke into the headset.

Since they were in action, naturally there was an awareness to report the situation!

Report the good, not the bad; now that the most significant sniper was dealt with, of course, he had to inform Ye Feng.

”Well done!” Ye Feng’s voice came through the headset, the joy in the tone unmistakable.

The snipers were regarded as a major threat by Ye Feng and others; though Lin Tian took a risk, resolving the threat certainly lifted a significant weight from their hearts!

Having settled the first sniper, Lin Tian didn’t linger, heading toward the next sniper.

The exhibit venue had five areas, each with ten bulletproof glass cases housing fifty Celestial Dragon Continent artifacts, ten per case.

And in each area, there were two security personnel standing guard, along with two snipers ambushed on the second floor!

Such defense, coupled with the surveillance, infrared sensors, sound sensors... and other measures in each area, could be described as an impenetrable net!

Anyone daring to intrude would surely be discovered, and the outcome would be grim beyond compare...
