The problem that Ettaria's combat craftsmen always have to face is how to further improve the operating efficiency of flexible structures.
The four-wing dance is a technique that simultaneously controls four wing surfaces and allows the clockwork fairy to enter a high-speed flight posture in the shortest possible time. It was developed by Roken J. Rodrinka, a combat craftsman in the history of Etalria. It and short take-off have always been a pair of dazzling twin stars, and are also one of the cornerstones of advanced control skills.
Since the Stargate Era, these two skills have been used as a yardstick to measure the level of combat craftsmen in the second world. It is fair to say that they are the basic skills necessary for top combat craftsmen.
In fact, this is the only way the plovers can take off.
Because almost all of his techniques come from the videos of the second world, as well as the experiences and notes of some 'masters'. Of course, he himself has put a lot of thought into it, but they are all wild methods - as for "The Chosen One" Basic takeoff techniques discussed in the Combat Craftsman's Manual.
Sorry, Fang Plover has not read "The Chosen One's Combat Craftsman's Manual".
Of course, at this time, he was not aware of how shocking his actions were, because he had already entered a state of complete concentration and immersion. It was only after passing three or four clockwork fairies that Fang Yu realized that he might be a little too pushy, so he slowed down a little.
But that was just what he thought was slowing down——
In the eyes of others, Fang Plover's clockwork fairy was like a golden meteor, sliding straight into the artificial obstacle area of the first level. In comparison, other clockwork goblins seemed to have turned into clockwork snails.
There was total silence.
There were waves of exclamations coming from far away from the official arena, where the first round of the competition seemed to be going on.
Every clockwork goblin will, without exception, slow down significantly when entering an artificial obstacle area. Compared with Fang Plover's so-called 'deceleration', it is like a wild dog without its collar, running wildly in the wilderness, Let yourself go.
Fang Yu also discovered this immediately.
Because he passed three clockwork goblins again, he was still very confused - he had obviously slowed down? However, the artificial obstacle area was already in front of him, and he had to concentrate again.
When he actually stood on the field, Fang Yu discovered that this obstacle was very cleverly conceived, because unlike the perspective of a bystander, if viewed from the perspective of a competitor, the internal structures of the artificial obstacle area were in a state of mutual shielding.
In other words, the operator himself can only observe the complex space inside it through the visual link with the clockwork goblin.
This invisibly increases the difficulty a lot.
Only then did he finally understand why so many people failed at the first level. But this wasn't a problem for him at all. Fang Plover used his left hand to adjust the brass outer ring on the goggles.
Most people didn't notice this subtle movement.
Only Xueye Yaoyue, who was about to sit down, stood up straight again, with a look of surprise on her face, and just like her, many people in the contestants' seats let out a low voice: "Wide field of view mode——? "
This is an action meaning that only combat craftsmen will understand.
Clockwork Goblin has three detection modes - normal mode, narrow field of view mode and wide field of view mode.
The wide field of view mode is a bit like a wide-angle lens, which provides the operator with a wider field of view through the ability to visually link the crystal itself. However, the circular field of view does not conform to human visual habits, so it is generally only used for some special tasks - such as overlooking the battlefield, monitoring large areas, etc.
In narrow and high-speed motion conditions, it is actually not suitable to use the wide field of view mode. Because under these two conditions, combat craftsmen need to be highly concentrated and maintain good reaction speed. Too much visual information will only interfere with people's judgment and distract people's attention.
"So is this guy crazy, doing the opposite?"
The contestants at the scene couldn't help but look at each other a little bit.
The "Chosen Combat Craftsman's Manual" clearly states that the wide field of view mode should be prohibited from being used in missions involving narrow and high-speed movements. This is a classic rule, so it is better to say that this person is training as a Chosen Are you dozing off at all?
However, Fang Piao was not crazy, and certainly had not participated in the Chosen One training.
In fact, he has always believed that the wide field of view mode is specially provided for use in such situations-narrow and high-speed motion conditions. Because it was easier for him to remember the spatial distribution of front, back, up and down, he believed that what was needed under such conditions was not reaction force.
But information——
Once the wide field of view mode is turned on, the entire artificial obstacle area will look completely different in Fang Plover's eyes. The situation of space, front, back, up and down, naturally appeared in his mind.
Every obstacle, every dead end, every trap, and the distribution of every passage are reflected in his memory. He raised his head slightly, put his fingers together, and made a stroke from the lower left to the upper right. The clockwork fairy suddenly flew up and penetrated into the narrowest passage at an incredible angle.
Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
They almost thought that the clockwork goblin had hit them, but the touch sensors outside the artificial area did not beep.
The clockwork fairy was like a little fairy flying in the dense forest, extremely agile, and the thick thorns seemed to be its back garden, where it strolled gracefully and calmly.
The crowd involuntarily let out gasps of air.
The dwarf referee jumped down from the table, ran two steps closer, and checked the buzzer. After finding that there was no problem, he raised his head and looked in the direction of Division 12 in shock.
But Fang Yu stood there with his goggles on, oblivious to everything around him.
"He didn't slow down."
Someone gasped.
The eyes of a group of people almost dropped to the floor. If short takeoff and four-wing dance were still within the understanding of the contestants, the ability displayed by Fang Plover at this moment was already beyond these people. imagination.
Even top combat craftsmen, when they return to this arena from the second world, can't they say that they don't slow down at all in this artificial obstacle area?
They couldn't help but think so.
Even the fat man was stunned and couldn't help but rub his eyes.
Among the crowd, only Xueye Yaoyue slowly sat back, but her mind was buzzing with the conversation she had with that person at that time——
"Your calculation and analysis skills are good, but the path of combat craftsman is not suitable for you."
"Have you ever seen the Dance of the Clockwork Fairies?"
"When you see him one day, you will understand."
"In fact, I have only met one person so far who truly has such a talent."
And such a person?
She looked at Fang Plover, her eyes full of disbelief.
At this time, Fang Plover finally flew out of the obstacle area, and he switched back to the normal mode with his hands - using the wide field of view mode in an open place always made him feel a little weird. But then he suddenly realized that there was no clockwork fairy in front of him.
This means that he has flown to the first position.
Fang Plover suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
To be honest, with people from the military standing by, he had never thought of being so pushy. The only thing he wanted was actually a bonus. Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed while wiping off cold sweat: "Why are these people so slow?"
He has obviously already slowed down his speed.
In fact, he adjusted it based on the level of the battle craftsman of the Red Jacket Team, lowering himself to a level lower than the opponent. He thought that this way he would be similar to others.
But Fang Plover's single-cell brain obviously forgot one thing. Kaka was flying like that in mid-air, while he was flying happily in the obstacle area.
At this moment, he was at a loss when suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a golden light flying out of the artificial obstacle area - it was another clockwork fairy. Moreover, the opponent flew over his head provocatively and flew straight into the curved ring corridor in front.
However, Fang Yu had no intention of being provoked at all.
In fact, he was even a little pleased in his heart, "As long as you're not number one, it's okay. Number two won't attract so much attention, right?" Fang Yu's heart was filled with pure and innocent thoughts, so he followed with confidence.
He simply further reduced his speed and followed the opponent slowly.
But what Fang Yu never expected was that by doing so, he would anger the other party.
The clockwork fairy suddenly stopped in front of him, then turned and rushed towards him. Fang Plover was startled and quickly dodged. At the critical moment, two clockwork goblins passed each other in mid-air.
The people around him couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw this thrilling scene.
But before Fang Plover could breathe a sigh of relief, the clockwork fairy refused to let him go. He also chased after him and sank down, trying to hit him again. "Is this person crazy?" Fang Yu was a little confused for a while, but he remembered that if he was hit, he would be out.
However, he was in a hurry, but his reaction movements were extremely skillful, as if by instinct. When he turned his right hand, he could almost hear the sound of the silver rails rotating rapidly under the curtain.
The clockwork fairy drew a precise arc and got out of the way of the opponent within a very small range.
The two clockwork goblins were flying up and down against each other like golden beetles during the mating season, and they were dazzled in the blink of an eye. One was determined to collide, the other was determined to dodge, and the reactions and movements of both parties were so fast that everyone around them was stunned for a moment.
First, I didn’t expect such a scene to appear in the game.
Second, I didn’t expect it to be so exciting.
It took a while for the dwarf referee to react. He picked up the loudspeaker angrily and screamed: "Contestant No. 6, pay attention to your behavior!"
The clockwork fairy suddenly stopped in mid-air.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally flew forward.
Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but open one eye and look at the position of contestant No. 6.
What he didn't expect was that the other party was also looking in his direction. He first saw a pair of cold but beautiful eyes, those of a young man. The other person looked at him somewhat indifferently, and his eyes stopped on him, as if he wanted to remember him.
But this man was just like him, wearing a long cloak with the hood pulled up and the collar turned up, leaving only his eyes exposed and his appearance barely visible.
It can only be vaguely seen that he is a very handsome and beautiful young man.
Then the other person turned around.
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment and had to regain his composure - after all, the game was not over yet.
When the two were fighting before, two clockwork goblins had already surpassed them one after another, but Fang Plover was not in a hurry. In fact, this was exactly what he wanted. He naively thought that the further behind he was, the less attention he would attract.
The second level of the curved corridor is a relatively simple part of the competition. The contestants have started to speed up here, but Fang Plover has become more 'experienced'.
He's slowing down.
In full view.
Others looked at this scene with bewildered expressions.
At first, they thought that the previous fight had exhausted the energy of the No. 12 player and reduced his control level, so it was inevitable that he would slow down a bit.
"Ha," the fat man seemed to have found his voice, and turned around to introduce to the others: "This guy also seems to have a silver wax gun tip. His skills are average, but he doesn't last long-"
Unfortunately, the first assessment does not require ranking.
He secretly felt a little pity in his heart.
But he soon regretted not going on.
Because under everyone's gaze, Clockwork Fairy No. 12 was still slowing down further, and had even fallen all the way behind to the third-to-last position. At this time, even the mentally retarded person could see that this guy was deliberately slowing down.
What on earth is this guy thinking?
Everyone was confused.
Because no matter how the control level drops, it won't suddenly look like a different person is controlling it. Not far away, the dwarf referee's face turned green and white when he saw this. If it weren't for the rules of the game, he would have given this guy a warning for negative competition.
But Fang Yu had no idea about this.
He even felt a little proud. He should be considered more mature and stable now, right? He thought to himself that Miss Scarpet once told him that being in the limelight in Etalia was sometimes not a good thing.
Now he thinks so.
"Miss Scarpe, the new member of the Dawn Star Adventure Group has gradually grown up." Fang Yu thought silently in his heart.
But the curved corridors eventually have an end.
Soon after arriving at the door of the third level, Fang Plover was a little at a loss again. He didn't know how to slow down here. If he slowed down any further, he would stall and fall in the turbulence.
The third level is undoubtedly the most difficult part of the game, and everyone will get a headache here without exception.
The biggest headache for excellent combat craftsmen is how to fly better and faster.
The biggest headache for a clumsy combat craftsman is how to fly safely to the finish line.
What bothers Fang Plover is how to fly slower.
But he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fly in.
Then a spectacle occurred.
Everyone saw Clockwork Fairy No. 12 being blown from side to side by the air current, teetering on the edge of collapse, as if it would be ruled out at any time. But it happens to be as stable as an old dog. No matter how low it flies, how thrilling it is, or how outrageous its flying attitude is, it just won't land.
Not only did they not land, they also passed the clockwork fairies in front of them one after another.
Fang Yu couldn't help but sweat profusely, but what he was anxious about was not how to pass the test, but how to let others surpass him. So with this infinitely entangled spirit, he flew over the finish line third.
He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Then lift the goggles.
And then?
There is no more.
Because as soon as Fang Yu took off his goggles, he saw that almost all the eyes in the entire competition area were focused on him, with big eyes and small eyes staring at him.
He was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but stammered: "W-what do you think I'm doing?"
"I, I am the third one?"
…
