Chapter 53: Hawkeye is defeated
When a button was pressed on the longbow, the underside of the quiver behind the eagleeye immediately rotated, and two arrows with special effects were mounted on the shafts.
Pulling out the first special arrow, Hawkeye didn't aim at Bucky, but slightly sideways, pointed the arrow in the other direction, and as soon as the hand holding the bowstring loosened, the arrow was shot. If it was just like this, it would be impossible for this feathered arrow to hit Bucky, and it could even be said that it would be 108,000 miles away from Bucky's location.
However, Hawkeye's attack was not over, and he shot out like lightning and pulled out a second special arrow, this time aiming directly at Bucky and shooting the arrow out.
When Hawkeye shot the first arrow to the side, Coulson in the command room exclaimed: "This is Barton's whirling arrow, I didn't expect him to be able to use such an amazing arrow in such a complex environment as the jungle, now Mr. Barnes may be unlucky!" ”
Nick Fury on the side also seemed to nod in agreement, although he didn't speak, but judging from his expression, he should also be surprised by the skill of Hawkeye's archery.
This archery, which Coulson calls a whirling arrow, was invented by Hawkeye alone, and with his talent for archery, as well as the high-tech arrows made by S.H.I.E.L.D., he was able to deflect the flight direction of the first arrow, forming an arc-shaped trajectory and flying in the direction of the second arrow shot by Hawkeye.
The difficulty of this arrow method is that it is difficult to ensure that after the direction of the first arrow is deflected, there are no obstacles on its arc track and can be unimpeded, and to ensure that when the second arrow hits the target, the first arrow can reach at the same time, so that the target is unguardable.
To do both, you need not only superb archery skills, but also super computing power. Before today, Hawkeye had only practiced this kind of archery in the open training ground, and it was not 100% successful, and at this time, Hawkeye was also forced by Bucky to use such an uncertain archery technique.
In the middle of the jungle, Bucky was engrossed in perceiving everything around him, intending to discover his location the moment Hawkeye made a move.
The moment Hawkeye's second arrow was aimed at Bucky, Bucky sensed it, and the instinct of danger once again told Bucky that Hawkeye was about to strike.
Sure enough, the next moment, Bucky saw an arrow shoot at him like lightning. However, Bucky was a little puzzled, although this arrow was extremely fast, it was straight and straight from his front, and the angle was not tricky, and it was said that Hawkeye should understand that this level of arrow could not hurt him.
The arrow approached, Bucky was not in a hurry, and still held a feathered arrow shot by Hawkeye in his hand, and with a flick of his hand, he blocked the arrow that came from the front and shot it to the ground.
However, at this moment, the alarm bell in Bucky's heart rang out, and the sense of danger did not disappear with the head-on arrow being shot down, but only intensified. In the thousandth of a second, before Bucky's mind could react, his body instinctively turned sideways to dodge.
The next moment, a cold air brushed Bucky's left ribs, and the first arrow that Hawkeye had just shot, after making an arc, finally arrived. Unfortunately, Bucky reacted in time, although he didn't notice the feathered arrow beforehand, but the instinctive reaction of his body allowed Bucky to dodge the attack at the last moment. Although the feather arrow failed to hurt Bucky, it still made a hole on the left side of Bucky's shirt, and if it wasn't for Bucky's timely dodge, I'm afraid the arrow would have been stuck in Bucky's waist.
Looking at the feather arrow that almost hit him, it was stuck in the ground at this time, and the arrow was right next to the arrow that was knocked to the ground by Bucky, Bucky immediately understood the subtlety of Hawkeye's move. The arrow that strikes head-on not only attracts the attention of the target, but also guides the other arrow, allowing the other arrow to pass through an arc of orbit and hit the target from the other direction.
It's a pity that the current Hawkeye hasn't been able to practice this set of arrows to the point of perfection, and the arrows that hit him head-on were a little faster by a few tenths of a second, and he couldn't reach Bucky's location at the same time, otherwise, Bucky just now was attracted by the arrows coming head-on, and it was really possible that he would be hit by another arrow and be injured.
At this time, Hawkeye was hiding his whole body in the dense foliage, revealing only two eyes, looking at Bucky. The two arrows just now can be said to have almost reached the highest level of Hawkeye, but unfortunately, they still failed to hurt Bucky. Hawkeye understands that he is afraid that he will lose this battle, although the archery technique of this roundabout arrow is exquisite, as long as he fails to hit the target the first time and makes the target ready, then it will be even more difficult to hit in the future.
Although he already knew that his chances of victory were not good, Hawkeye did not give up on himself, but still hid in the leafy trees, hoping that the attack just now did not reveal his position, as long as he hid now, he may not have a chance to sneak attack again.
As a qualified archer, Hawkeye's concealment methods are really good, although Bucky knows the general direction of Hawkeye, but after looking closely, he still can't find his specific location.
After thinking about it, Bucky casually picked up a few small pebbles from the ground and threw them twice in his hand, the weight was just right, and it could be used as a hidden weapon.
With a "boom", a small pebble flew out of Bucky's hand, passed through a dense field of foliage that could hide people, and struck the trunk of the tree before stopping.
Bucky is using the pebbles to probe every place where Hawkeye may be hidden, and while these casually thrown pebbles may not be able to hit the hidden Hawkeye, Bucky believes that doing so will definitely make Hawkeye shine.
Several attempts were fruitless, and Bucky was not in a hurry, and another pebble was thrown, and this one was headed for where Hawkeye was.
Looking at the flying stones, Hawkeye gritted his teeth and didn't dare to move, only hoping that the stone wouldn't hit him directly, in that case, he might not be exposed. Maybe it was Hawkeye's luck, the stone that Bucky threw didn't hit him, but just flew past his earlobe, making Hawkeye tremble slightly unconsciously.
There was a slight tremor at this time, and even Hawkeye himself didn't notice it, but Bucky keenly felt that the branch and leaf had a trace of unnatural trembling as the stone flew by.
"Finally found you!" Bucky was overjoyed, but didn't show it, as if he hadn't noticed Hawkeye, and walked forward, pretending to test other places where he could hide.
A moment later, Hawkeye breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Bucky finally pass under the tree he was on, thinking that he hadn't been discovered. But a few seconds later, a feathered arrow that flashed with cold light suddenly hit Hawkeye's neck, and Bucky's voice came from behind him with a smile: "Little Barton, you lost!" ”
"This, how is this possible, how can he climb the tree silently in a few seconds, and appear behind him!" Hawkeye was horrified, if Bucky was a real enemy, he would be in danger of losing his life.
"You...... How are you ...... How? ”
