Almighty Coach

"Snapped!"

The crisp gunshots sounded, and Adam Hawley looked at the monitor around him, and a score of 9.7 appeared on it.

This is not a very good result, even the average is not satisfactory, but Hawley is quite satisfied with this result, because this is the first shot among the last ten shots, and the main function of this shot is to proofread the gun The target, so a score below 10 rings is not considered bad. According to the calculation of the Olympic results, a shot above 9.5 rings is an acceptable score.

After more than ten seconds, all eight players completed the first shot, and only one person scored a good score of 10.2, and the scores of the other players were all below 10. And Holly's main competitor, the curly-haired young Prince, hit a 9.6 ring, and he was 0.1 behind Holly.

In the second shot, Hawley shot a 10.2 ring. It seems that after the adjustment of the first shot, his accuracy has indeed improved a lot. And Prince's second shot hit a 10.1 ring, he is still 0.1 ring less than Hawley.

In the third shot, Hawley scored a 10.5 ring. These are the best results so far.

The applause started quickly and ended quickly.

Compared with other sports, the spectators of shooting sports are usually relatively calm. They will only give corresponding applause when there is a good result, and this kind of applause will not appear for too long. After all, shooting athletes also hope to get A quiet playing environment.

Although the best score in shooting sports is 10.9, but in official competitions, the score of 10.5 is already relatively top. Even in world-class competitions like the Olympic Games, if the score exceeds 10.5, there can only be one or two appearances in a competition, and the two times are mostly due to luck. This is basically the same as hitting the exact center of a dollar coin from fifty meters away, which obviously cannot be done without luck.

After the first three shots, Hawley's results were getting better and better. At this time, he had already gained some leading advantages. Except for Prince, the other players had basically withdrawn from the championship.

In the fourth shot, Hawley scored a 10.1 ring again. Immediately after the fifth shot, Hawley made some adjustments and hit a 10.5 ring again, ushering in a full house. In the sixth shot, Hawley's score was 10.0, and in the seventh shot, Hawley scored a 10.1 ring.

With six shots in a row, Hawley's score is above 10 rings, which is definitely an undisputed top performance in the world.

...

"Hawley's strength is so strong!" Dai Li couldn't help but said. He looked at the results displayed on the big screen. At this time, Holly was 1.4 points ahead of Prince, and these 1.4 points were obtained by the last seven shots. On average, Hawley hits 0.2 more rings per shot than Prince.

In this level of competition, if you hit an average of 0.2 points per shot, you can basically be regarded as a two-level player.

Dai Li calculated in his mind, and then said: "There are still three shots left. If Prince wants to win, he needs to beat Holly by 0.5 rings in each shot. This means that Holly If you hit a 10 ring, Pulis will hit a 10.5 ring, and occasionally a 10.5 ring with one shot is still possible, and three consecutive shots are such a high ring number, which is extremely rare in reality, and it seems that the overall situation of the game has been determined."

"That's not necessarily true." Blake shook his head: "Don't forget that Hawley is the 'last shot tragedy'. No matter how much he leads in the previous games, the last shot may lose all his advantages."

"The tragedy of the last shot? That's the old Adam Hawley." Dai Li had a big smile on his face: "He came to our training center to ask for help, isn't it just to solve this problem?"

"He only trained with us for ten days, ten days, so short, how much change can be made!" Blake said dejectedly.

"Ten days, it's enough to transform him." Dai Li's tone was still extremely confident.

...

Hawley looked at the grades displayed on the screen.

"I lead Prince by 1.4 rings. If he wants to beat me, he must recover the 1.5 rings in the last three shots. This is almost impossible. I should be safe in the next three shots."

Thinking of this, Holly raised the rifle in his hand and aimed it forward.

"Crack!" After the clear gunshot, Holly looked at the small screen beside him, which showed the position of the target and the number of rings of the shot.

"This shot is 10.0." Hawley muttered, and then immediately turned his attention to the big screen in the distance. He hoped to know the score of Prince's shot.

"10.4 rings, 0.4 rings were recovered by Prince, and I still have a lead of 1 rings." Holly took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and prepared for the ninth shot.

The referee quickly ordered the ninth shot, and Hawley raised the rifle again, took aim, and finished shooting.

"Ring 9.9, Hawley has obviously started to seek stability in these two shots recently. Now it depends on whether Prince can seize this opportunity. He just recovered the 0.3 ring. I don't know if this shot can recover some. Number of rings." As soon as Dai Li finished speaking, Prince's results appeared on the big screen.

"Prince scored 9.7 points in the ninth shot. He did not recover the gap, but lost 0.2 rings. He is now 1.2 rings behind Hawley."

Shooting players will inevitably adopt a more hard-working shooting method when catching up with the number of rings, and this hard-working shooting method can easily hit a high ring number of about 10.5 rings, but risks and hopes always coexist, and more hard-working shooting The method also means taking additional risks, and this risk is to play a relatively low ring number. And in the ninth shot, Prince obviously lost the bet.

In the last shot, the gap between the two sides is 1.2 rings. In theory, as long as Holly shoots a 9.8 ring, he can guarantee 100% victory. Because the number of rings for shooting is as high as 10.9, if Hawley hits 9.8, it means that he has won 11 points. In that case, even if Prince hits the highest 10.9, it is impossible to win.

However, in reality, a 10.9 ring is something that can be encountered but not sought after. Under normal circumstances, as long as a score of 10.5 is scored, it is already at the top of the ceiling. If Prince scored 10.5, Holly You only need to hit a 9.4 ring to win.

This year, Holly's worst score is 9.7, and he has not scored below 9.5.

Judging from these normal data, Hawley can be said to have secured the victory. However, Hawley's last shot cannot be viewed from a "normal" perspective. He is known as the "last shot tragedy".

Prince also knew this very well, so even though he was 1.2 rings behind at this time, he was not in a hurry, with a smug expression on his face, as if he was the one who took the lead.

Prince looked up at the data on the big screen, his expression seemed to be lost in memory.

"The current situation reminds me of the National Shooting Championship the year before last. I remember that I was even more behind, like 2.2 rings behind. I thought I was going to lose, but Hawley's last shot was only shot. A 7.7 ring."

"Also in last year's National Shooting Championship, I was the one behind when I hit the last shot, and my last shot was very bad, I only shot a 9.3 ring, but Hawley didn't even hit a 7 ring That time, not only did he lose the championship, but he also lost the runner-up and third place, and in the end he only got a fourth place!"

"The tragedy of the last shot, this nickname is really worthy of the name. Since the missed target in the Olympics, he has never been able to shoot the last shot well. It was like this before, and it will be like this today, so I am now 1.2 points behind. That's not a problem, what I have to do now is to shoot the last shot!"

"Yes, make the last shot. Not only that, but I also want to shoot earlier to put more pressure on Hawley!"

At this moment, Prince's eyes were full of determination. He had already determined that Hawley's last shot would definitely drop the chain again.

At this moment, the referee gave the order to shoot the last shot. Prince immediately raised his rifle and aimed at the target 50 meters away.

"Crack!" Prince was the first to pull the trigger.

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of applause from the audience.

"Ring 10.6, Prince's last shot was awesome. He even scored 10.6. This is the best result this year. Prince is indeed the world's top shooter. He was 1.2 behind in the last shot. Under such circumstances, withstand the pressure and fight back!" Blake couldn't help exclaiming.

"10.6 minus 1.2 is 9.4. In this case, Holly will have to score a 9.5 to surpass Prince and win the championship!" Dai Li said while entering the system. He started to use the status scale, and then set the All the weights are on the stable side.

"All the weights have been added. Now Holly is in the most stable state he can achieve so far. With his strength, it should be no problem to hit a 9.5 ring!" Dai Li thought to himself. .

...

On the field, Hawley raised his rifle. At this moment, he couldn't help thinking of the scene when he hit someone else's target with his last shot in the Olympics.

"I shouldn't be aiming at the wrong target, right? Let's make sure again."

Hawley put the rifle down, double-checked that he was aiming correctly, and started aiming again.

At the same time, applause broke out at the scene.

Hawley lowered his rifle a second time, then looked at the big screen.

"Prince's last shot actually hit a 10.6 ring, so my last shot would have to hit a 9.5 ring to win!"

Hawley took a deep breath, raised the rifle a third time, and took aim.

"9.5, my last shot is going to be 9.5, but in recent years, in the competitions I participated in, I haven't even scored 9 in my last shot. Can I hit 9.5 today?"

Holly aimed his eyes, and the black spot on the gun target 50 meters away kept getting bigger and bigger in his eyes.

"Am I aiming at my gun target? I can't aim at the target next to me!"

The miss in the Olympics that year was like a nightmare, haunting Hawley again, and he put down his rifle for the third time.

"Crack...crack...crack..."

Several contestants next to them completed their last shots one after another, but Holly stood there like a lost pedestrian, looking hesitant.

Almost everyone's eyes were on Hawley. Their eyes were looking forward to it. However, they were not looking forward to the birth of a champion, but they were expecting Hawley to shoot another bad last shot and hand over the championship. people.

"Hey..." Blake let out a long sigh, he lowered his head, he couldn't bear to look at Holly, he didn't want to see Holly fail again.

Not far away, a smile finally appeared on Prince's face, and this smile became brighter every time Hawley put down his rifle.
