Invincible through Touching Corpses

With their previous experience, everyone moved in an orderly fashion this time, requiring no instructions from Lin Xinghai.

Little Fatty and the others went to find sturdy buildings to construct a defensive point, while Lin Xinghai continued to lead his team out to lure more Zombies.

Even Zhou De took the initiative to lead his team back, finding an open area a short distance away to set up tents and start boiling water for a meal.

This was something Lin Xinghai had arranged with him earlier. After clearing out the Zombies here, they would take a temporary three-hour break before traveling through the night, aiming to reach the Dongwu Shelter before noon the next day.

Zhou De naturally had no objection to Lin Xinghai’s proposal; he was also eager to complete his escort mission as soon as possible.

And as for Lin Xinghai’s group, Zhou De had absolutely nothing to worry about this time around.

In fact, it was just as he had anticipated. The task was even easier than before, as the horde they lured back was smaller than the last one, numbering just over 10,000.

The moment Lin Xinghai led the Zombies back, the others eagerly opened fire. This time, everyone used controlled bursts. While not as efficient for killing as spraying, it was a vast improvement compared to their last attempt.

The rate at which they killed Zombies had increased by at least 50%.

This improvement was achieved in just a few short hours. Such a rate of progress could only be described as terrifying.

With Lin Xinghai joining the fight, it took only about five minutes to whittle the horde down to just 3,000 Zombies.

Furthermore, the ones left were all Ordinary Zombies. The Intermediate and even High Level Zombies had been single-handedly eliminated by Lin Xinghai.

He planned to leave all these Ordinary Zombies for the others to practice their Gun Technique on.

Leaving over 3,000 Zombies for Gun Technique practice might sound a bit extreme, but since they were only Ordinary Zombies, the group was in no real danger.

After all, the gap between an Ordinary Zombie and a Blood and Qi Realm Martial Artist was immense. A single kick could send several of them flying.

It took the group half an hour to finally eliminate the 3,000-plus Ordinary Zombies, but even so, everyone felt like they were still wanting more.

The improvement in their Gun Technique during that half-hour surpassed what they had gained over the previous several hours combined.

Lin Xinghai felt that the Gun Technique of many of his squad members could now rival that of Roger.

This led him to consider an important matter: whether or not to teach them his Perception Technique.

A watered-down version, of course. But once they learned it, they would no longer need to aim with their eyes when shooting Zombies. They could lock on directly using their Perception Power.

At that point, their Gun Technique wouldn’t just improve incrementally; it would leap to a whole new level. With a little practice, every one of them could become a Divine Sharpshooter.

After a moment of thought, Lin Xinghai figured that since he had already taught this method to Roger and the others, there was no reason he couldn’t teach it to Little Fatty and his group as well.

Besides, winning over these budding geniuses would be a great asset to him in the future.

With that thought, Lin Xinghai no longer hesitated and immediately gathered everyone.

"Your Gun Technique is pretty good, but practicing this way has its limits. Next, I’m going to teach you my exclusive Secret Technique. Once you learn it, every single one of you can become a Divine Sharpshooter."

As everyone looked on expectantly, Lin Xinghai continued, "My exclusive Secret Technique is a special application of Perception Power. After learning it, your Perception Power will be able to ’see’ with the precision of your own eyes. You’ll be able to lock onto enemies with your Perception Power, know their exact position without even looking, and simply open fire."

"This method is also extremely useful in regular combat. Once you master it, you can even observe an enemy’s subtle body movements to predict their next attack."

Hearing about the effects of this Perception Technique, a quiet murmur spread through the group. None of the students present were fools; they instantly understood how incredibly important such a technique was.

It was no exaggeration to say that once they learned it, their close-quarters combat abilities would increase by at least twenty percent.

As for their Gun Technique, the improvement would be even more astounding.

Some of the sharper students couldn’t help but glance toward Liu Miaomiao. Lin Xinghai’s Gun Technique was so formidable it crushed any desire they had to catch up, but the skill Liu Miaomiao had displayed in the last two battles had also left them in awe.

While Liu Miaomiao couldn’t yet spray fire like Lin Xinghai, her firing rate was still far beyond their own. She could fire about two shots a second with perfect accuracy, placing her in a league of her own.

They had previously assumed her skill was the result of long-term training under Lin Xinghai. But after his explanation, they understood. The reason Liu Miaomiao’s Gun Technique was so incredible was undoubtedly due to this special Perception Technique.

"Boss, are you really willing to teach us a miraculous Secret Technique like this, just like that?" Little Fatty asked, swallowing hard in astonishment.

In his eyes, the value of this special Perception Secret Technique was no less than that of a Legendary Level Mecha.

"Of course. You’re all my squad members, so consider this a perk." Lin Xinghai’s tone grew serious. "However, you are forbidden from passing this Perception Secret Technique on to anyone else. If I find out you have, you will have made an enemy of me for life."

"Boss, since you’re willing to share this Secret Technique, I have a suggestion," Little Fatty said. "Our academy actually has a system in place. If someone develops their own Martial Arts or something similar, they can give it to the academy to sell on their behalf."

"I think you should do that. If you let the academy sell it, your rights will be protected. If anyone learns it without permission, the academy will pursue them for you. Of course, you’d have to split the profits with the academy," Little Fatty proposed.

Lin Xinghai was taken aback. He wasn’t the only one; the others were just as surprised, as none of them had ever heard of such a policy.

That didn’t stop Lin Xinghai’s interest from being piqued. "Is that for real? If I handed this Perception Technique over to the academy, how much could I stand to make?"

"It’s definitely real, but the policy is usually for the academy’s instructors, since it’s almost impossible for a student to develop their own Martial Arts Technique. But if you apply, Boss, I’m sure it won’t be a problem."

"As for the profits, they’d be absolutely massive. This kind of Perception Secret Technique is far more useful than your average Martial Arts. I bet even if you priced it at 10,000 Credit Points, students would still line up to learn it."

"If a price like that gets approved, you’d earn 5,000 Credit Points per student. The academy currently has 5,000 students enrolled. If every single one of them bought it, Boss, you’d instantly make 25 million Credit Points!"

"And that income would just keep coming, harvesting it from batch after batch of new students." Little Fatty grew more excited as he spoke. Even to him, it was an unimaginably huge sum of money.
