The Amazing son in law Chapter 2147
The might of a heavy composite crossbow is formidable enough to pierce a person’s skull from a close range.
Moreover, Mr. Johnson is a highly skilled assassin, notorious for his proficiency with a crossbow, and he is completely confident that he can eliminate Charlie with just one shot.
With fifteen years of experience in the assassination field, Mr. Johnson has never failed to complete a kill using his crossbow.
With lightning speed, he aimed at Charlie and pulled the trigger without a moment’s hesitation!
The bowstring of the composite crossbow emitted a sharp hum as a titanium alloy and carbon fiber arrow sped toward Charlie’s temple.
This crossbow’s velocity exceeds 100 meters per second, and with modifications, its speed nearly reaches 200 meters per second.
At such a close distance, Charlie would have less than half a second to react.
In essence, he wouldn’t even have time to turn his head!
Consequently, Mr. Johnson had already made up his mind, considering Charlie a doomed man.
He was even prepared to witness Charlie’s head explode right before his eyes.
Furthermore, he knew that the arrow was coated in a deadly poison; even a mere scratch would ensure Charlie’s demise!
However, to his utter disbelief, Charlie didn’t even glance in his direction; instead, he casually reached out and caught the speeding crossbow arrow!
“This… how can this be?!”
Mr. Johnson was left utterly stunned!
The captain was equally shocked, exclaiming, “Mr. Johnson, am I dreaming?! Is that crossbow arrow in his hand the one you just fired?!”
A cold sweat broke out on Mr. Johnson’s forehead as he exclaimed, “Yes… this guy is an absolute freak! I’ve never encountered someone as strong as him…” This text is hosted at
In a rush, Mr. Johnson asked, “Who is he?!”
The captain, filled with dread, replied, “I have no idea! I was simply ordered by the master to eliminate him…”
With gritted teeth, Mr. Johnson declared, “I’ll fire another arrow; there’s no way he can catch this one!”
This composite crossbow is equipped with two bowstrings, allowing for rapid successive shots.
Once both arrows have been fired, the bowstring must be re-strung, which is a challenging task given the weight of the arrows. Even for Mr. Johnson, it would take at least ten seconds to accomplish.
Thus, this remaining arrow is practically his last shot.
Just then, the captain interrupted him, exclaiming, “Mr. Johnson, the master is still alive! If you can’t eliminate him, activate the emergency protocol! Are you absolutely sure you can kill him with this final arrow?”
Mr. Johnson hesitated, then shook his head: “I’m not sure…”
The captain, with a serious expression, urged, “Mr. Johnson, if you don’t have complete confidence, then we must initiate the emergency plan!”
Mr. Johnson nodded slightly, saying, “Alright, let’s go with the emergency plan!”
……
Meanwhile, on the deck of another ship, Xion watched in disbelief as Charlie effortlessly caught the crossbow arrow mid-flight with one hand.
She thought to herself, “Is this person even human?! The power of that arrow was greater than the force of my previous strike, and it was much faster! He caught it without even looking?! Just how advanced are his martial arts?!”
Noticing Xion’s astonishment, Charlie smiled calmly and remarked, “What’s the matter? Is your worldview being turned upside down?”
Xion nodded gently in response.
