Chapter 438: 438 100 Rings_1
Zane Percival had even used his connections to broadcast the competition through the shooting range’s PA system, instantly attracting the attention of most people present.
Many who were practicing shooting voluntarily stepped aside, freeing up the space for the two to duel.
Itai Huntington was filled with anxiety, for although Zane Percival was uneducated, he was truly a genius when it came to shooting!
He was so talented that he had participated in domestic competitions and even won awards!
Obviously, many people in the range knew about this and were eagerly waiting to witness Julius Reed’s utterly miserable defeat.
“With so many people here to bear witness, I trust you won’t back out?”
Zane Percival asked again.
He was already overjoyed and even sent a message to Bran Cook, boasting about how he made Julius Reed kneel like a dog.
And about how he was going to beat him until he was desperately searching for his teeth!
This was a great accomplishment!
Bran Cook on the other end of the phone was equally excited!
Just moments ago, he was forced to kneel on the ground, watching Julius Reed and his family eat!
Such a great humiliation!
He was very curious about how Zane Percival managed to do it, considering Julius Reed had powerful backers and even Jordan was now lying in the hospital.
When Zane Percival replied that he achieved this through a shooting competition bet, Bran Cook was even more overjoyed.
Competing against Zane Percival in shooting was just courting death!
However, what he didn’t know was that the competition hadn’t even started yet…
“If Younger Percival loses, I hope you would also keep your word. After all, we’re both gentlemen, right?”
Julius Reed said with a smile.
“Heh! How could I possibly lose! Don’t insult the term ‘gentleman’, it doesn’t suit you!”
Zane Percival snorted coldly.
But Itai Huntington, standing nearby, said, “I’ll bear witness.”
“Thank you, Sister Huntington!”
With Itai Huntington’s support, Zane Percival rubbed his hands together eagerly, wishing he could immediately leave Julius Reed searching desperately for his teeth!
“I’ll go first!”
He skillfully put on his ear protection and started to aim at the distant targets, firing his gun!
Bang! Bang! Bang…
After ten shots, Zane Percival confidently took off his ear protection and looked at Julius Reed: “You’ve lost!”
This confidence stemmed from his skill!
“Ninety-nine points!”
Someone shouted from afar.
“Younger Percival is incredible! Virtually every shot hits its mark! The sharpshooter reincarnated!”
“He even broke the record at our Gonzalez City shooting range today! The previous record was also set by Younger Percival, at ninety-eight points!”
“This battle will surely be talked about in Gonzalez City for a decade!”
His followers were singing his praises, and the bystanders were shocked.
Incredibly skilled!
Only one shot scored a nine, all the rest were perfect hits!
With such results, the competition seemed to have no suspense left.
For those who practiced regularly, scoring over eighty points was challenging, how could this youth, who appeared to have hardly practiced, possibly win?
“Sorry, but you’ve lost!”
Zane Percival said provocatively, “Is there even a need to continue? I think it’s a waste of time!”
He was secretly jubilant. His previous best was only ninety-eight points, but today he scored ninety-nine points!
On this night of setting his own record, he could severely punish this son-in-law, and his name, Zane Percival, would surely spread throughout Gonzalez City.
Fate was indeed intent on destroying Julius Reed!
He was extremely pleased with himself.
“Since I’m here, how could I not shoot? Don’t you agree?”
Julius Reed acted as though he was at a loss, he looked at Itai Huntington with mild difficulty: “Could you teach me? It’s my first time here, I’ve never played before.”
As soon as these words came out, the entire place erupted in boos.
One was a sharpshooter, the other a rookie who had never practiced!
It was like a massacre waiting to happen!
It was an outright massacre without any suspense!
“This loser! He can only wash clothes and cook after three years, I think he should have stuck to dishwashing. Younger Percival is bound to lose!”
“Exactly, he could compete in doing laundry too, right? Seeking his own death by daring to play with guns? Is he even worthy?”
“Younger Percival is like the Sharpshooter incarnate, he could be his great master!”
The henchmen behind Zane Percival were ridiculing proudly, and the other onlookers were also buzzing with discussion.
“Did you know? This guy seems to have some connection to Itai Huntington; he was using Itai Huntington’s card at the cafe earlier!”
“I heard about that too, and he gave Dexter a good thrashing. He just came out, and now he’s going head-to-head with Zane Percival. He’s really courting death!”
“But in front of so many people, Itai Huntington can’t easily show favoritism. There’s definitely going to be a good show later on!”
Many people were waiting for the drama after hearing about the incident at the cafe.
One was the man holding Itai Huntington’s membership card, who was also the Radcliffe Family’s son-in-law and known as the good-for-nothing of Gonzalez City.
The other was the young master of the Percival logistics family, with exquisite marksmanship, and close ties to Bran Cook.
The confrontation between the two men could be described as unequal, but with Julius Reed carrying Itai Huntington’s membership card, the situation became interesting.
In fact, Zane Percival was unaware of this; if he had known about Julius Reed’s connection to Itai Huntington, he would not have acted so recklessly.
Offending the deadly widow would be a costly mistake he couldn’t afford.
“Hey, are you up for this or not!”
Zane Percival urged impatiently.
He was itching to fight, just waiting to beat Julius Reed so badly he’d be picking up teeth.
And he had already arranged for his men to take out their phones to record the moment, to capture his glory.
Afterwards, he’d upload it to the internet for the whole of Gonzalez City to see how he beat Julius Reed into searching for his teeth!
“What’s the rush? Aren’t you just looking for your teeth to stay in your mouth a bit longer?”
Julius Reed gave Zane Percival a disdainful glance.
“You’re going to die sooner or later! Stop dawdling, won’t you have a bit of dignity? Do you think by dragging this out, you can escape your fate? A bet is a bet, you have to be prepared to lose! Everyone’s watching, you know!”
Zane Percival could hardly contain himself, but Julius Reed kept delaying the shot, making him anxious!
This was clearly a stalling tactic!
“I think you should take a good look at all those teeth in your mouth, because in one minute, you’re going to lose them!”
Julius Reed picked up the gun from the table and suddenly pulled the trigger at the target!
Bang!
The shot rang out.
Bullseye.
“How is that possible!”
Everyone was surprised by the first shot.
“Just luck!”
Zane Percival said disdainfully.
Shooting accuracy does involve some luck.
Itai Huntington clenched her fists, her palms already sweaty.
She had a premonition that the man before her might surprise her.
But everyone thought it was just luck!
“Dumb luck! The next shot will reveal the truth!”
Bang!
The second shot.
Everyone was initially startled, then burst into laughter.
“Off target!”
“He lost already!”
“Just dumb luck after all!”
Bang! Bang! Bang…
After ten shots were fired, apart from the first one hitting the bullseye, all the rest were off target.
“Damn! You agree to the bet, you accept the loss. Today, young master Percival will teach you how to behave!”
Zane Percival walked up to Julius Reed, grinning from ear to ear.
“All hits, a perfect score of one hundred!”
Just then, a voice came from near the target.
