Chapter 559: Big Brother Cheng, I’m Really a Good Sniper (Part One)

“I’m trash?” Chris laughed out of anger. He looked at the others and then looked at Xu Cheng and said, “Even a little boss like you from a nobody mercenary group dares to look down on me now? What gives you confidence? Let me tell you, Mario, Zhang Xiu, and many of the people that are still standing here with you were recruited by me. If it weren’t for me, you think your two bros alone could have recruited this many people?”

Immediately, he turned to the other buddies that he helped recruit into the Deviant Mercenary Corp and said, “Let’s go, why do we even bother staying here? What a picky beggar.”

Xu Cheng lit a cigarette for himself. They could leave if they wanted, he didn’t really care. He didn’t believe that he couldn’t find any fearless warriors in the Land of Mercenaries.

Chris tried to talk the others into leaving with him, but at this time, a guy with deep eyes and a beard named Chekov suddenly opened his mouth and said, “I don’t want to leave anymore, Chris.”

Chris thought he heard it wrong. He looked at Chekov and asked, “Did you hit your head somewhere? What happened?”

Chekov looked Chris in the eyes and said, “You know what I told you before, about my past. This time, I want to go and fack with those guys at Grizzly!”

“Have you gone insane? You are here because you were left with no options after being chased down by them. Right now, you are still the same as before, a loser and a clown!” Chris scolded.

Chekov didn’t say anything. But, he was very determined, and he just stood still, not budging.

Just then, Vala from Thailand also suddenly turned around and walked to Xu Cheng’s side.

He said, “I feel like I’ve been running away for too long, I might as well live like a man even if it might mean only a few days.”

Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Cheng and smiled. “We’re from the same home country, I obviously have to take your side.”

Xu Cheng smiled and nodded.

The African guy sighed, “He’s right, Chris, you’ve been living too much like a coward these years. Rather than saying you rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of a phoenix, it’s better to say that you don’t want to listen to orders and just want to give orders and enjoy an easy life without risks. In fact, you are already disgusted and scared of this land. You are only acting tough and instinctively disguising yourself in order to survive. We’ve followed you for two years and got nowhere, and now, there’s someone with a lot of guns, ammo, and money to provide for us. It’s fine if we don’t have good territory, but if we are ambitious, we will just go and conquer some. I like to speak with my fist, isn’t this the feature of the Land of Mercenaries?”

Chris was a little stunned. This series of events was leaving him a bit dumbfounded.

He looked at his old partners blankly, not knowing what to do.

Luo Yi and Li Wei exchanged a look, and they finally let out a sigh of relief. Thank god they managed to find a few good candidates, or they would’ve felt so guilty for failing Xu Cheng and be labeled as unreliable.

At this time, Xu Cheng said to the bros that intended to stay behind and said, “Then we are going to take Falcon’s territory tonight. You guys aren’t afraid?”

The African warrior smiled. “We are just scared that you would p-ssy out. I told you, I like Deviant’s logo, and I think I can become a core member. I’m Mario.”

Xu Cheng smiled at him. “From now on, you can follow Luo Yi and Li Wei and call me Big Brother Xu. Same goes for everyone else that is staying. I won’t say too much, but I have the ambition to achieve something big here. In the future, what’s mine will be all of yours!”

Kurt, Vala, Dusener, Zhang Xiu, Mario, Chekov. Xu Cheng didn’t need too many people, but he needed the best of the best!

Chris just stood there and looked at those guys. He grabbed the cash that was given to him and left without even looking back. In the near future, when they met again, he felt that leaving today was the biggest mistake he had ever made in his life. He chose to live a nobody-life over staying behind and later on becoming the core members of the most feared organization in the world.

– Night time –

There were nine of them in total.

Xu Cheng, Luo Yi, Li Wei, and the 6 new members that just officially joined. The nine of them were standing around a bonfire looking at the map that Luo Yi had gathered before. Chekov and the others had already prepared all the weapons; armed from top to bottom, they were ready to go.

Seeing how serious they were, Mr. Hawking walked over and asked, “Are the 9 of you really planning to go and start a war? Are your brains still working? They have a mercenary group of about 300 people, and even if they fire with their eyes closed, they can stomp you. Before you guys can even get close, maybe when your car just gets to the door, you would’ve already met with a bazooka.”

Xu Cheng: “Old man, I said I won’t allow you to say anything in front of me that affects morale.”

Hawking shrugged his shoulders. “Then you guys continue. I’ve just never seen such a one-sided battle.”

Xu Cheng: “If we don’t come back tonight, you can leave this place.”

Then, he got up, carrying five sniper rifles by himself.

Chekov was also carrying a sniper rifle. Seeing that Xu Cheng was also a fellow sniper, he felt a bit closer to this Big Brother Cheng so he curiously asked, “Big Brother Cheng, you are a sniper too?”

Xu Cheng smiled and reminded them, “Tonight, you guys just need to reap lives all you want from outside the door. Remember, don’t do anything risky. I will lure them out. Chekov, you don’t need to use the sniper rifle tonight. Follow them and try out the machine gun, it’s a great feeling.”

Chekov said proudly, “But I was born a sniper.”

Li Wei and Luo Yi smiled and didn’t say anything.

Chekov lifted his eyebrows. “Don’t believe me? How about I show off a few shots? Go and ask Mario and the others, which one of them doesn’t admire my sniping skills?”

Zhang Xiu and the others nodded. “He’s indeed quite good. Many times, we were barely able to escape all thanks to Chekov covering us from afar. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be here today.”

“Oh, really?” Xu Cheng smiled. “Then I will take a look some other day. Alright, just follow the game plan. Double-check your equipment, we will leave in 10 minutes. Let me emphasize this again, in the future, following orders is your top priority!”

Chekov hurriedly said, “Big Brother Cheng, I’m really very skilled, just let me be responsible for covering our retreat.”

Li Wei smiled and interrupted him. “We know you are good, but you don’t have to be eager to show your skills. Just see what happens tonight first. After tonight, you will know, there will always be someone better than the best.”

Luo YI also chimed in. “Big Brother Cheng’s sniper isn’t used to cover a retreat. Tonight, you will also find out yourself.”

Chekov just really wanted to prove his capabilities to his new boss to improve his impression of him, but it wasn’t a must for tonight. But, after what happened that night, he had quite a bit of trouble looking at sniper rifles the same again. It was indeed a terrifying nightmare.

That textbook-like performance by Xu Cheng back in the day during the military contest later became a must-watch material in any military. It was like a grand mountain that no sniper could climb over.
