Chapter 37: Dashing to the Devil's Face Legend

  Bullets whizzed past Chen Shaoqin's ears, several spinning bullet heads almost hitting his body, but under his quick reflexes, they all missed by a hair's breadth. At this moment, the distance between him and Nomura was only a few meters apart. With just one more dash, he could rush to the front of the enemy in the first time, snatch the rifle from the opponent's hand, and control the overall situation. But would the opponent give him this opportunity? Probably no one knows the answer, but anyway, Chen Shaoqin had to try, after all, it was a matter of life and death for all his comrades behind him, and he couldn't afford any slackness.

  Two Japanese soldiers standing guard next to Nomura were shocked by Chen Shaokan's charging speed, and the machine gun in Nomura's hand seemed to have no effect on Chen Shaokan, but instead encouraged him to rush towards Nomura. So they raised their Type 38 rifles and charged at Chen Shaokan with bayonets drawn.

  Chen Shaoqin pushed the first little devil that rushed over, and then kicked him in the butt. The little devil lost his balance on the spot, and his entire body was kicked to the ground without reservation. In the time when the little devil had not come back to his senses, Chen Shaoqin quickly pressed the muzzle of his gun against the chest of the second little devil who rushed over, and pulled the trigger in his hand without any hesitation. Only a muffled sound was heard from Chen Shaoqin's rifle, and the impact force of the bullet directly pushed the little devil to the ground, with fresh blood flowing out quickly from the bullet hole, staining the surrounding soil red.

  Chen Shaoqin, after finishing off the devils in front of him, turned around and stepped over the little devil's corpse. The muzzle was directly pressed against Nomura's neck. At this moment, all he needed to do was pull the trigger, and Nomura would immediately be able to go see Yan Wang. In an instant, all the little devils stopped firing, and the battle with Liu's group also subsided instantly. Everything returned to calmness.

  Suzuki raised the Nanbatou in his hand in the quiet environment, aiming at Chen Shaoqin's head, with a posture of wanting to fight Chen Shaoqin to the death: "Let go of Nomura-kun!"

  "Hey, you little devil, stop waving that torch in my face!" Chen Shaoqin didn't flinch at all, and with one swift motion, he pushed the long gun forward a few more inches, forcing Nomura's entire body to retreat nearly 10 centimeters. At this distance, it wasn't just about killing someone - even if it was just a fight, Chen believed his speed would far surpass Suzuki's. "I'm not afraid of you, and even if we both make a move at the same time, I guarantee that this beast in front of you, Nomura, will definitely die before me!"

  What Chen Shaoqin said made Suzuki's heart tremble. With Chen Shaoqin's skills, he couldn't find any reason to doubt Chen Shaoqin's abilities. After all, they had been defeated by this young man three or four times. If this young man really didn't have any skills, they wouldn't be in this situation. Therefore, Suzuki began to hesitate at this time and for a moment did not know what to do.

  "You are the only Chinese person I have met who dares to come in front of me alone and point a gun at me while speaking. I want to know what your name is?" Nomura felt that the artery on his neck was being pressed by the opponent's gun, blocking part of the blood circulation, causing him to hyperventilate due to lack of oxygen, but he still insisted on standing upright in front of Chen Shaobin, not losing the dignity of the Empire.

  "I can tell you, my name is Chen Shaoqin!" Chen Shaoqin had no intention of lying to someone whose life was completely in his control, so he told Nomura his own name. He didn't plan to kill Nomura now, because if Nomura lived, it would bring hope to their entire team and allow them to leave safely. After all, the number of little devils they had encountered so far was several times that of Chen's team, and if Nomura died, the little devils would have to fight them to the death, which would be harder to deal with. So he chose not to kill Nomura, but he also didn't plan to let this beast go easily, and at this moment, he was thinking about how to deal with Nomura.

  At this time, the little devil who was kicked to the ground by Chen Shaoqin got up from the ground. Seeing that Chen Shaoqin had already controlled Nomura and grasped the overall situation, he picked up his gun, pulled the bolt, and planned to take advantage of Chen Shaoqin's unawareness to launch a sneak attack on him, then turn the whole situation around.

  Liu saw the little devil slowly aiming his gun at Chen Shaoqin's heart, originally intending to fire, but because he had a Mauser pistol in his hand, the range was not enough to reach that distance, so he immediately jumped out from behind the stone, planning to rush over and take down the little devil as quickly as possible. But before he could get close to the little devil, the little devil had already started pulling the trigger.

  At that moment, only one gunshot was heard, followed by a body heavily falling to the ground. The impact was so great that it could almost be felt on the ground. However, what left everyone baffled was that the person who fell to the ground wasn't Chen Shaoqin, but rather the little devil who fired the shot. This left Lame Liu truly perplexed.

  He was well aware that his pistol couldn't even reach that place, let alone accurately take out the opponent when they opened fire. So he himself didn't fire a shot, but what exactly happened with this timely gunshot? It left him increasingly bewildered.

  Ko Chen's expression was calm and collected, as if the events that had just transpired were entirely within his expectations. In a swift motion, he pulled back the bolt of his rifle, ejecting the spent cartridge, while another new round chambered with a soft click. The muzzle of the gun, still emitting wisps of smoke, pressed against the base of the villager's neck once more, precisely at the same spot as before. It was clear that the shot that had killed the stealthy little devil was fired by Ko Chen himself, demonstrating his marksmanship skills to be nothing short of miraculous, able to accurately dispatch his opponent without even needing to take aim.

  "You'd better be honest, I don't want my next shot to be at your two heads!" Chen Shaoqin started intimidating Nomura and Suzuki, with an attitude that seemed to force them to surrender.

  "Chen Sang, speak up if you have something to say. What conditions do you want? Just name them!" Suzuki was frightened by this incredible shooting skill and almost dropped the Southern 14 in his hand, but he was relieved that the shot wasn't aimed at him, otherwise it would be him lying dead on the ground right now instead of that soldier.

  "Don't worry, I'll set the conditions, you don't need to rush, just keep waiting!" Chen Shaoqin had no intention of setting any conditions with the little devils now, nor was it time yet, so he had to drag things out for a while, at least until Xiaoshi and the others lit the fire and sent up smoke, before he would come back to deal with these little devils.
