Both sides were less than 200 meters apart, the rounds fired from Ayu's MK-48 lashed out at the convoy like a whip, drenching several unlucky souls who remained inside their vehicles in a spray of blood.
Nevertheless, the MK-48 was not the Fire God; although its firepower was fierce, the rate of fire meant that the bullets did not land as densely as one might imagine.
The reason why the Fire God or close-defense guns are so powerful is not because their bullets are intrinsically that mighty, but due to the extremely high rate of fire, which effectively creates an inevitable 'fire chain'.
In reality, a machine gunner's so-called sweeping fire, once beyond 100 meters, will see the intervals between bullets growing larger due to the rate of fire and the speed of the gunner's arm swing.
The primary purpose of a machine gunner's sweeping fire is suppression, so a truly excellent gunner aiming to kill or suppress will use rhythmic three-round bursts or aimed rapid fire.
