Chapter 1180: [Sleepless Eye] in Action (I)
A merciless bullet shot out of the muzzle, shattering one head and burrowing into the head of another.
A cold eye moved with the muzzle of the gun, and put the eyebrows of another monster into the scope, Jim pulled the bolt, pushed a bullet into the chamber, and then pulled the trigger, and in the high magnification, another powerful monster fell.
After months of observation, his abilities were finally discovered.
It can be said to be a kind of 'psionic energy', because he has been fighting monsters in the Black Forest for a long time, and has been affected by some low-concentration magic elements, which has caused his psionic energy to awaken, and he can attach his will to the bullet, increasing the penetration and lethality of the bullet.
In doing so, he transforms from an infantry man to a sniper, and as the first 'psyker' to awaken in the battle against monsters on the Southern Front, he has to undergo some experiments with some mages.
However, although it is said to be an experiment and a test, it is just to draw some blood and do some physical examinations, and it is not as terrible as it is rumored.
After becoming a 'Sniper', his treatment has also improved a lot, and as a rare psyker in the army, he also enjoys some treatment that other snipers can't enjoy.
Although he himself knew very well that the army did it in order to win him over, he just ate a set.
"Lieutenant Jim, please lower your rate of fire and aim at some of the more powerful monsters. A command came from the radio station next to him, and although the interference was a bit serious, he still heard the commander's order clearly, and his observer naturally heard it clearly.
Upon hearing this order, the observer raised his binoculars again, laboriously searching the chaotic battlefield for the existence of powerful monsters.
This is a very difficult and troublesome job, the monsters are moving all the time, and the number of monsters in the beast tide is quite huge, if it is not for the fact that they only need to be responsible for this area in front of them, then the workload of the observer hand will be even greater.
"South-east. With just a hint of direction from his observer, Jim was able to find his target, and after becoming a psyker, his dynamic vision and brain reaction speed increased a bit, a trait that other psionics didn't exhibit.
Although he can basically only attach 'will' to bullets, and cannot use telekinesis like other psionics, the army needs a psyker of his type!
Another shot knocked off a head, and by the way, a beast next to him was dealt with, and Jim calmly loaded.
The battle line on their side was a blessing in disguise, because the powerful monitor lizard monster and the sandbags placed on the front line had been petrified, even on the ground, providing them with a strong enough defensive front and road.
This was unimaginable before, their priority was not so high, and if they wanted to build a concrete road here, at least they had to wait until other higher priority war zones were ready.
Seeing that the monsters no longer poured out of the forest in the distance, Jim put down the steam sniper rifle in his hand, moved his sore shoulders and arms, and breathed a sigh of relief that they had once again won a phased victory.
"Would you like to have a drink later?" asked Jim, clinking his fist with the observer, pulling the corners of his mouth, which had become a little stiff from excessive tension, and chuckling.
Considering the increasing pressure on soldiers on the front, the army has also opened up restrictions on alcohol to soldiers at the bottom, but if something happens, they will still be punished, and alcohol is not a military item, it needs to be purchased with money.
The observer shook his head and sighed helplessly: "Your Majesty is carrying out agricultural restructuring, and the family wants to grow cash crops and needs some money, but as long as you can keep up this time, you won't have to worry about money after that." ”
Jim also knew about this, his family was also a farmer's family, he was a farmer's son, and there were two older brothers, and if it wasn't for the lord's heavy taxes, he wouldn't want to join the army.
"That's nice......" Jim looked envious.
Perhaps during this time, it may be more difficult for the observer, but at least his home is within the sphere of His Majesty's influence, and as long as he responds to His Majesty's policies, it is easy to make money, which is like his family......
Even if he has become a psionic person and has supernatural powers, living in this society requires food and money.
He was not yet strong enough to get the lord lord to give him preferential treatment, so he was quite envious that this observer of his own could live in the sphere of influence of His Majesty the Emperor.
In the past, he was just an ordinary farmer's son, unaware that the empire was almost divided by various noble lords, but after joining the army, he gradually learned about these things through chats with his comrades.
After that, he developed a deep understanding of the matter of being 'within the emperor's sphere of influence' and 'being outside the emperor's sphere of influence'.
After the radio station said 'The battle is over,' Jim picked up his steam sniper rifle and walked off the platform with his observer, chatting as he went.
The observer always had a happy smile on his face when he talked about something in his own family, while Jim always sighed, and the two families were too different from each other.
Obviously, they are both farmers, and their families have a small and small field, but the living standards of the two are simply incomparable.
“...... But I have heard that His Majesty seems to be cracking down on some nobles lately?" As he spoke, the observer suddenly brought up the matter, "I have also heard it from other people, because some nobles do not listen to Your Majesty, and not only do they not educate their children, but they also let them go into the factories to work, and they also use the excuse that they are not very useful, and their salaries are naturally less. ”
Hearing this, Jim's eyes widened in anger, and he couldn't help but scold: "What are they trying to do? Are they trying to destroy those children?
If it was before, he would never dare to do this, but this is the army, and it is also the Southern United Army, even if he scolds the nobles here, the nobles will not dare to do anything to him.
To make all children literate, this is an order issued by His Majesty and His Majesty the King of Radiance at the same time, and there are still people who dare to disobey, not only disobey, but also dare to squeeze the labor of children, it is simply not knowing whether to live or die!
It may take decades for this task to be completed, but with the help of the military mages and priests, Jim also understands the importance of literacy for civilians in the future, and naturally does not scoff at it as much as he used to.
The observer also shook his head and whispered, "So, I heard that the 'Sleepless Eye' has been dispatched!, and I heard that this time His Majesty may not only want to warn the nobles who disobey the order, but also want to clean them up......"
Hearing this, Jim immediately gasped in surprise, but soon, he snorted coldly and said with righteous indignation: "Well done! If you want me to say, Your Majesty should have done this a long time ago, if Your Majesty had brought the entire empire under his control, then the people of the empire would no longer have to bear high taxes!"
The observer also nodded and agreed: "That's right, if only Your Majesty had made up his mind earlier, those more pig-like nobles...... No, it's an insult to pigs, because pigs can still provide us with meat!"
The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
After laughing for a while, the observer continued to say hatefully: "Before Your Majesty inherited the throne, we were much more miserable there than you are now, I originally had an older sister and an older brother, but the family had no food, and my sister was sold like this, and one winter, in order to prevent me from starving to death, my brother went to the lord's forest, and never returned. Don't look at those nobles on the surface, but they are all pasted out of the flesh and blood of our commoners!"
Listening to the story of the observer, Jim silently clenched his fists.
After that, the two of them never spoke again, and soon they were back in camp.
The observer slapped Jim's shoulder and forced a smile, "Go to the bar, I see you've been under a lot of pressure lately, so I'm not going, after all, I still have to save some money to send home." In a few months, my life may be better, and then I will invite you to drink!"
Jim looked up at his observer, his mouth slightly open, but he didn't know what to say, and finally, he replied dryly, "Good ......"
The two parted, and the observer returned to his tent, took out the notes that he had placed under the bed, listened to the jokes of the others "again in his diary", and smiled and put the pen on the back of Jim's name "Credible".
Watching the handwriting on the page of the notebook slowly disappear, the smile of the observer hand brightened a little, and then turned the page and wrote today's diary.
After writing, he breathed a sigh of relief, closed his notebook, and said softly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Subsequently, the other people who heard this sentence also laughed and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
