Chapter 746: Chapter 749: Absolute Speed! Crushing!

At the referee’s signal, all the competitors, one by one, immediately reacted.

In the beginning, it was just a matter of disassembling firearms, which for these folks was as simple as everyday routine; even blindfolded, it was done with ease.

Each contestant was racing against time, disassembling at an incredibly fast pace as if afraid of being overtaken by others.

Since they were all blindfolded, none of them knew how fast their opponents were, so they had to stay alert at all times and disassemble as quickly as possible.

Among the sixteen contestants, Zhou Yang, standing in the middle, was the slowest.

While nearly all the other fifteen had disassembled five guns, Zhou Yang had only disassembled three.

"Humph, I told you, War Dragon might be good at fighting, but when it comes to high-tech and skills? We have over a dozen gun experts here, any one of us could take him down in a second!"

Seeing Zhou Yang’s hands clearly slower than those beside him, Lei Zhenhu said somewhat proudly to Lambosky sitting next to him.

Lambosky nodded and smiled, "Indeed, we are Elder Level Mercenary Teams that have been established for decades. In terms of seniority and experience, we are certainly much stronger than these newly formed teams. Just watch, let’s see if that guy from War Dragon can make it into the top eight. If he can’t, he won’t earn a single point. Haha, when we get through this round, we’ll catch up to them right away."

The two of them exchanged a smile, feeling victory was within their grasp.

Out of the sixteen people, Zhou Yang was indeed the slowest by a wide margin.

Others were adept and performed disassembling tricks in an instant, but Zhou Yang was carefully and gently disassembling the guns, as if afraid of damaging them.

Even Xiao Zhuang was getting anxious: "Damn, didn’t Zhou say he was really good? How come he’s fallen so far behind? The Fierce Tiger, Persian Gulf, Dahe, and Korea Mercenary Teams are all about to finish disassembling their sixth gun, and he’s just starting on his fifth... I’m dizzy."

Xiao Zhuang anxiously looked at Qin Tian, but saw him looking composed, with even a slight smile on his lips.

"Boss, how can you still smile at a time like this? Although they can’t possibly catch up to our points this round, if they close the gap, in the next round they might overtake us," Xiao Zhuang said, spreading his hands toward Qin Tian.

Lin Zitong and Mu Yunxi also looked at Qin Tian at that moment, and seeing the smile on his face, both were somewhat surprised.

"Why the panic, Xiao Zhuang? First, see what Zhou is really doing before getting anxious. This competition isn’t just about disassembling, but also about assembling firearms. Which do you think is harder, disassembling or assembling?"

Qin Tian said gently.

"Of course, assembling is harder, you can’t mess up even one part..."

Xiao Zhuang, while speaking, looked toward Zhou Yang in the competition area. He stopped mid-sentence as if realizing something, and his eyes widened, "Oh..."

Seeing this, Xiao Zhuang also felt joyful and smiled at Qin Tian, "Boss, I understand now... heh, indeed, I didn’t think of that. Zhou really is meticulous and far-sighted, outsmarting everyone else!"

Qin Tian nodded, "That’s right, and now is the time for Zhou to speed up."

With a light smile, Qin Tian and the others all focused their attention on Zhou Yang.

At that moment, something very interesting happened in the competition area.

Those contestants who had swiftly disassembled their guns and were ready to start assembling panicked.

It was indeed satisfying to disassemble quickly, but now, with the parts of six guns mixed in a barrel, how could they sort them out?!

Of course, they could distinguish the parts one by one with their hands, but that would take so much time, and they had no idea how long it would take.

Dozens of parts, once touched, became chaotic. How could one possibly assemble them?

Several competitors scratched their heads anxiously within moments.

They felt each part with their hands, unsure whether to proceed with assembly, for a single mistake—attaching a part incorrectly—would immediately lead to disqualification by the referee. It was a risk they dared not take.

Yet, some members of the Fierce Tiger and Dahe Mercenary Teams, during the rapid disassembly phase, appeared to have kept each gun’s parts in separate locations. Although the small barrel meant some parts overlapped, there wasn’t much overlap, so when it came to assembly, their speed wasn’t fast, but they were confident—certain that they would not make mistakes.

This strategy appeared to be the fastest one conceived by the majority of contestants.

However, Zhou Yang was the exception; he did not follow this method.

While disassembling the guns, he not only placed parts from each gun in specific locations but also memorized the approximate positions in his mind.

For the overlapping long parts of the three rifles, Zhou Yang stood them upright against the inner wall of the barrel and memorized the order of the parts.

Because ensuring the parts were correctly placed, minimizing overlap, and remembering the locations slowed him down, Zhou Yang took more time than anyone else.

But when it came to assembling the guns, Zhou Yang’s advantage was instantly apparent.

He was naturally quick at both disassembling and assembling guns; now, with the positions of each gun’s parts in his mind, his assembly process was as fluid as if he were doing it with his eyes open.

At that moment, the situation on screen reversed.

The former fast contestants either hesitated, not daring to assemble, or proceeded to assemble cautiously and slowly.

Zhou Yang, on the other hand, moved swiftly and skillfully, clicking together each part with dexterous hands and feet.

"Oh!"

The audience, observing Zhou Yang’s assembly speed which was several times faster than the others, could not help but exclaim in surprise.

Even the referee standing next to Zhou Yang squatted down to check that the cloth covering Zhou’s eyes was properly secured.

After triple-checking, the cloth was indeed tightly covering Zhou Yang’s eyes. How could it be as if it wasn’t there at all? The referee wondered.

It took one minute thirty-two seconds to disassemble, but only fifty-nine seconds to assemble, not even a minute!

Zhou Yang completed the task in around two and a half minutes, removed the blindfold, and drew continuous exclamations from the crowd.

"Hmm, it seems my speed has terrified the other spectators," Zhou Yang thought smugly.

However, at this point, with Zhou Yang already finished, Li Changjun from the Fierce Tiger Mercenary Group indulged in self-pride, believing the exclamations from the viewers were for him.

Li Changjun thought, "That idiot surely failed to place the gun parts correctly during disassembly and now he must be too scared to start assembling."

He had practiced disassembling and assembling guns hundreds of times, achieving a high level of proficiency and speed.

Among the remaining fifteen competitors, Li Changjun’s pace was on par with the contestants from the Dahe and Korea Mercenary Teams.

"I’m done!"

Finally, Li Changjun finished assembling the last gun and excitedly removed the black cloth from his head.
