Before everyone could evacuate, the protector drove away first, which shocked everyone. The new members' first concern was their own safety.
Later, Andy explained to the new members that these four people were going to snipe a large group of infected people. At this time, the new members were really shocked: Isn't it good to live well? Why should they take the initiative to die?
This is the most obvious difference in the thinking between the gospel team members and others under Iger's persistent propaganda.
For such a large group of infected people, most teams may be desperately praying that it will not come towards them. They are forced to fight it as a last resort.
Egger believes that extremely large groups of infected people are a threat to all survivors, whether now or in the future, whether to themselves or others.
At the level of the overall confrontation between infected individuals and humans, eradicating extremely large groups of infected individuals can benefit humans.
So, since you can do this by yourself, then go ahead and do it, instead of just focusing on the one-third of an acre of land in front of your door.
This is Iger's philosophy and what he is doing.
When setting off, Egger looked at the mileage meter. When the number of kilometers increased by 21, a large number of infected people were discovered ahead.
This large group of infected people is moving along the road. What is very strange is that they are lined up neatly on the road. There is a flat grassland next to the road, but no infected person has stepped on it.
Since the back row was blocked, Egger couldn't see clearly how long the line of infected people was. He only felt that it was a large, dark mass, giving people the feeling of a dark cloud.
Egger looked around and found that the nearby view was very broad, but there was no commanding height.
Without a commanding height, it would be difficult to spot the Screamers among the infected, and even if they were discovered, it would be difficult to snipe them.
Because according to Egger's experience, screamers are usually mixed in the center of infected people, and only when they make a scream can they be distinguished from other ordinary infected people.
"What should I do?" Joanna stopped the car and asked Iger.
Egger's left hand was rubbing back and forth on his smooth chin, and finally he decided to give it a shot first.
All have come.
The pickup truck moved forward slowly. When it was only two or three hundred meters away from the front line of the infected group, the pickup truck turned around.
Egger, Fran and Erica rolled over from the car seat into the car. Egger and Fran each held a shotgun; Erica stood on the roof of the pickup truck, holding a high-power monocular to observe the infection.
The crowd; Joanna stood outside the pickup truck with a shotgun, acting as a security guard.
This shotgun loaded with 10 rounds of 7.62 standard NATO bullets is very powerful. Through the scope, Egger found that the green crosshair was only a little bit below the black crosshairs of the scope, indicating that the bullet's exit speed was very high, and the parabola was relatively
smooth.
It was the first time Egger used a firearm to shoot at such a long distance. The last time he used the M70 to hunt the Screamer, the distance was only 200 meters at most.
Later, Egger discovered that no matter what position he used to stabilize the gun and adjust his breathing, the green crosshair could never shrink to the minimum. There was always an empty space in the center of the aiming line that made Egger feel very uncomfortable.
Fran also chose to lie down on the cargo and aim and shoot. After setting up the gun, he aimed with one eye. After a while, Fran said: "The target is 290-320 meters. It is recommended to use a 300-meter ruler."
Egger never looked at the scale on the physical sight, so he didn't care about the scale at all. But Egger was surprised to find that after Fran said this, the green sight in his field of vision moved and it shrank.
Some.
Then, Fran put his left index finger in his mouth, chewed it, and then stretched it into the air. After a few seconds, he said: "The wind direction is 3 o'clock, and the wind force is less than level 3."
Egger was even more surprised to find that he had been unable to adjust to the smallest green crosshair. After Fran reported the two shooting parameters, the green crosshair actually shrank into a physical cross.
Egger stared at the small green crosshair in front of him, and he fell into deep thought.
This is the second time that Egger discovered that the green crosshair was different from his understanding. The last time he discovered the "plug-in" effect of the green crosshair on the bell tower of the church. This time, Egger discovered that the green crosshair had a "plug-in" effect that affected the size of the green crosshair.
Four factors.
Previously, Egger summarized the three major factors that affect the size of the green crosshair: first, the target's movement state, second, his own shooting posture, and third, shooting skills.
Now Egger discovered that as long as he knew more shooting parameters, the green crosshair could further shrink.
Afterwards, Egger's mind suddenly thought of many things.
For example, if you aim at a target whose distance you have misjudged, will it cause the green crosshair to move up and down incorrectly?
For example, if you take a gun that you are not familiar with and misestimate the range, will it cause the green crosshair to be aimed incorrectly?
For example, if you are nearsighted or blind, will it cause the green crosshair to be aimed incorrectly?
Egger's thoughts immediately spread out. He vaguely felt that this thing couldn't be simply described by the word "plug-in".
Egg was lost in thought until he was awakened by Fran's gunshot.
Fran's shot was very accurate, hitting the head of a slow-moving infected female with one shot.
Later, Iger regained his thoughts, and he also aimed at the infected person and fired a shot. The infected person was shot in the head and fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Fran fired a shot, killing his second target, and then Egger fired a second shot.
In this way, the two people seemed to be in a relay, you took turns shooting one after another, and when the fourth round was reached, the infected group finally started running in the direction of the pickup truck.
"boom!"
Fran's fifth shot missed. Of course, with such a dense group of monsters, there was no chance of it missing.
This bullet was fired into the group of infected people. Some unlucky person was accidentally shot. No infected person in the front row was knocked down.
Immediately afterwards, Egger's fifth shot was fired, and his fifth target fell down.
For relatively stationary targets, Fran's shooting was not much different from Egg's, but when the infected started running, the difference between the two became huge.
As the infected man ran with his head in random zombie steps, Fran's shooting accuracy dropped significantly. After firing two empty shots, he had to give up headhunting and choose to aim at the chest.
There is no doubt that the 7.62 bullet is lethal to normal humans, but for infected people, it is still a little worse, and it is not even comparable to the 5.56 bullet.
Because the initial velocity of the 7.62 bullet is too fast, after hitting the human body, the cavity effect has penetrated before it reaches its peak.
But for targets thicker than the human body, such as large animals, the lethality of 7.62 can be fully unleashed, so most shotguns are equipped with 7.62 bullets as standard.
During Fran's shooting, at least two infected people continued to run after being shot in the chest. Fran took a second shot before falling down.
On the other side, Egger maintained a hit rate one shot at a time. For him, the green crosshair was just slightly larger, so it had little impact.
Egg is very grateful for the two sets of shooting parameters that Fran reported just now. If there were not those two contractions of the crosshair, then the hollow space in the middle of the green crosshair would definitely be larger than the head of the infected person, so he would have to switch to
Aiming at the chest.
At this moment, Egg felt that it was necessary for him to learn from Fran how to judge the target distance and wind direction.
