More than half a month passed in a flash.
It’s the 20th.
In the academy training hall.
In front of Luo Yan was a pile of scrapped training puppets.
These were all caused by his practice of 'ten steps and one kill'.
The strongest killing range of 'Ten Steps and One Kill' is within three steps. After this period of practice, Luo Yan expanded the killing range to three and a half steps.
Don't underestimate this step.
This small step is the result of half a month of continuous study and practice.
His goal is to expand the maximum killing range to within five steps, and according to records, the maximum killing range of this unique technique was once expanded to seven steps.
It's very scary.
It seems that the original killing range has more than doubled.
Luo Yan practiced for more than half a month and only expanded half a step.
And with every step of expansion, the difficulty doubles.
Expand to seven steps.
Luo Yan can't even think about it now.
Staring at the puppets on the ground, Luo Yan closed his eyes and rehearsed the scene of his encounter with Gao Lin in his mind.
After the exercise, he came to a conclusion.
If you meet Gao Lin now, don't use sword shadow and soul, don't use the 'transforming dragon' posture.
Just by using the 'Blood Pagoda' and 'Ten Steps and One Kill', he was sure to make Gao Lin suffer.
By the way.
'Blood Pagoda' has also improved significantly now.
This secret method has four effects.
Luo Yan had only mastered 'Fighting Will' and 'Blood Blade' before.
After getting Fang Yao's notes, I can use the first two effects more easily.
And recently, he finally mastered another effect.
'Blood Jiao'!
This is the symbol of the 'Blood Pagoda' secret method and also the core effect.
The effect of 'Blood Blade' is that now that Luo Yan activates the secret method, every time the number of attacks of 'Blood Blade' reaches 30, 70, 90, 108, 333, 666, and 999, a layer of pagoda will appear.
Each level of the pagoda will increase the speed, attack power, and attack range of the arcane user.
Theoretically, the highest improvement is naturally achieved when the pagoda reaches the seventh floor.
But in fact, Luo Yan can only 'build' the pagoda to the fourth floor.
In other words, the maximum number of attacks of the 'Blood Blade' can only reach 108. Even if it can be exceeded, it will not be able to reach the next node.
Why?
Because although each level of the pagoda will bring improvements in various aspects, the improvements are not without cost.
Just like the issue of fuel consumption and power, even if technology can be used to minimize fuel consumption and increase power.
However, there must be a direct ratio between the two.
'Blood Jiao' can improve Luo Yan in all aspects, but it also consumes a lot of energy.
With his current level, he can only support up to the fourth level.
To reach the seventh level, I'm afraid the 'Tongxuan Realm' is not enough.
Leave the training hall.
After taking a shower, Luo Yan came to the cafeteria.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Bai Yu playing with little Cai Tong.
"Look here, look here."
Bai? Covered his face with his hands, then suddenly took his hands away and made a face at the little thing.
Little Cai Tong chuckled.
Luo Yan walked in. Little Cai Tong seemed to recognize him and immediately stretched out his chubby palm.
Bai? laughed: "He wants you to hug him."
Luo Yan raised his eyebrows and took a step back as if facing a formidable enemy.
Little Caitong seemed to feel something, and his little face was suddenly filled with grievances.
Bai Yan pushed Luo Yan from behind and said, "Just give him a hug."
Luo Yan coughed dryly and said, "I have never held a baby."
"It's not difficult."
"I teach you."
"Like this, just support your baby's back, neck and head with one hand, and support his butt with the other hand."
Under Bai Yan's guidance, Luo Yan awkwardly picked up little Cai Tong.
It just feels different from holding a sword.
The little guy in my arms is warm, soft, and milky.
"Look, it's not difficult." Bai Xi smiled, "You don't have to be nervous at all."
Luo Yan said: "I'm not nervous."
"You're not nervous. Are you sweating profusely while holding a baby?" Bai Hao laughed.
Luo Yan couldn't help but his face felt hot. Fortunately, at this time, a news item was broadcast on the TV in the cafeteria.
On the screen, one can see mecha carrier vehicles driving out of the dungeon and heading towards the wilderness.
"I heard that the attack on Forbidden Area No. 9 is about to begin." Bai? said, handing a milk bottle to Luo Yan.
Luo Yan glanced at her.
Bai? blinked his eyes.
The two looked at each other for a while.
Luo Yancai said: "I can't take my hand away."
At this time Tao Yu came over and said, "Miss Bai, please take care of Tongtong for me."
"Brother Luo is here too."
"Let me feed you."
She took the little Cai Tong from Luo Yan's hands and breastfed the child skillfully.
It has been more than a month since the mother and son came to the academy. Now their life is stable and they don't have to worry. Both Tao Yu and the child look much better than before.
Luo Yan and the others exchanged greetings with her and then went to get food.
When I found another table to sit down, another news item was playing on the TV.
This time it's the surface, and in the camera lens, a small town is burning.
The billowing black smoke is an ominous sign.
The TV cut back to the broadcast hall, and the host spoke in smooth Mandarin.
"Recently, many armed conflicts have broken out on the surface, and fighting has broken out between suspected survivors over the competition for resources."
"Therefore, the City Lord's Office calls on residents of the underground city to minimize surface activities in the near future if not necessary."
Looking at the flames and smoke on the TV screen, Luo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
The 21st is the summer solstice.
surface.
Luo Yan was wearing a tattered cloak, with 'Blood Drinking' and 'Huanlong' behind him.
He wore a wooden mask and drove a modified motorcycle speeding through the wilderness.
last night.
Yu Qiushui sent a surface coordinate.
Today, she will meet with several captains there.
And explain the detailed plan for Huangquan that will be carried out next.
It was noon.
The sun is blazing.
The surface temperature is above 35 degrees.
The road Luo Yan was driving on was steaming hot, and cicada cries were heard in the distant woods.
The mecha passed a road sign. Under the sign lay a skeleton, which looked ugly and ferocious.
While passing through a town, Luo Yan heard gunshots and human voices in the town.
A group of survivors could be vaguely seen exchanging fire.
Luo Yan only glanced in that direction before speeding away.
Without it.
He can't solve this kind of thing.
After the natural disaster broke out, although the surface towns were severely damaged, at least there were still food and medicine left.
This provides the necessary conditions for surface survivors to survive the most difficult period.
However, now more than four years have passed since the natural disaster.
Food is okay, but medicines are used sparingly.
Coupled with the shortage of other resources, the outbreak of conflict is inevitable.
Moreover, if the situation on the surface is difficult to change, conflicts will only become more numerous and more frequent.
until resource constraints are mitigated.
An hour later.
Luo Yan has already seen the destination of his trip.
A surface city.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt danger and suddenly pressed his whole body against the motorcycle.
Almost at the same time, a ray of fire passed over his head and disappeared in an instant.
Luo Yan's pupils shrank slightly.
There are snipers!
Some people died, but not completely...
