"Is this also a member of your guild?"
"...Yes. Net??"
"The number of participants in your guild is really large."
"..."
"But it looks like... I'm about to be killed."
"..."
The two parties in the conversation were still Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huan Bing, but at this time they were no longer by the laughing river beach, but in a wooden house near the creek. Perhaps because it is far away from the bonfire, there are not many spectators in the cabin. Most of them are players who are indifferent to the game and just want to find a corner to rest and continue to play, so the two When people arrived, they easily found the vacant spot - according to Duan Qing's opinion, Xueling Huanbing at this time was only suitable for a good rest and a breath of fresh air, and she herself agreed to this proposal , but this woman, who was already extremely weak, refused to stay by the river beach for one more second, so at her insistence, the two of them had to move to this place.
As for the reason... the woman didn't say anything.
With difficulty, he helped the other party to the wooden house. Duan Qing, who was once again a little embarrassed, walked around idly, and then asked questions such as "How do you feel?" and "Do you want something to drink" among the lively people coming and going? After receiving no response, he reluctantly spent money again and bought the ticket to watch the system game again. The woman with her eyes closed remained silent during this process. She leaned on the gap between the seat and the wall, lying sideways on the wooden table, as if she had fallen asleep. Only when Duan Qing When he asked her some questions aloud, she would raise her head and reveal two clear eyes that made people dare not look directly.
"If it doesn't work, just log off and take a good rest." In the end, Duan Qing had no choice but to persuade: "It's better than here."
The other party did not speak, but shook his head again.
The small wooden house sometimes became lively and sometimes quiet, and the conversations between the two were often as simple and short as shown above. Each time, Duan Qing started and ended by Duan Qing himself. In the endless silence, he was on pins and needles and racked his brains, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere in front of him. But for Duan Qing, who had not been in contact with women for several years and was still an old virgin, such a situation The situation is undoubtedly more difficult than killing an epic leader.
So in the end, they had no choice but to start talking about the game.
"The Duanfeng Lei strike is over, and the result... I don't need to tell you."
"..."
"Hey, the president of your guild is here, do you want to cheer him on?"
"..."
"This kid is playing well. This guy's name is MacLean..."
"...That's the president of Borderlands."
"Ah? Really? Hahahaha..."
"..."
"The last sword strike just now was good."
"..."
"It's not the one I'm watching, it's the one you're watching."
Staring at the screen in front of him, Duan Qing's words suddenly turned to the previous game: "The last sword, including the previous sword skills, has some meaning. This is good, since You have learned how to use the thrust to generate sword energy, so next time you can use the sweep to attack, and then use the pick to slash, the back of the sword to strike, and the heavy slash..."
"...Can I do it?"
A weak voice came from the other side of the table: "What you said..."
"As long as you understand it, you can do it." Duan Qing smiled and gestured: "When you can abandon the sword and hurt people thousands of miles away, you will have truly learned it."
"……Really?"
There was a certain light in her eyes, and the woman gradually raised her head: "But my sword energy... is the effect brought out by the weapon..."
"So haven't you already taken the first step?"
Pointing to the long sword leaning against her, still held tightly by her, Duan Qing showed a smile on his face: "Since you understand that the touch of weapon special effects requires skills, then you should understand... that it can be achieved What’s the principle?”
"..."
The woman shook her head silently.
"Alas..." Duan Qing moved his fingers back and forth, and finally decided to explain a little: "Do you know Jian Beidong?"
Seeing the other party nodding, Duan Qing continued: "In the battle at Fenghua Town, everyone knew that he understood the method of using sword energy in the free world, but have you ever heard... What can he do with the sword? Qi’s weapons and equipment?”
"...No." The woman looked at the sky outside the window: "You mean, he can be empty-handed..."
"He should be able to."
Duan Qing smiled and said: "In other words... as long as you understand the principle, anyone with strength can do it."
"...Will you teach me?" The woman's clear eyes lit up.
"No, no, no, I can't teach you." Duan Qing shook his head hastily: "These things... you can't understand them just by talking."
"You have to feel it with your heart." He pointed to his chest and winked mischievously.
"...pretending to be mysterious."
Smooth long hair was scattered around. Xueling Huanbing, who was lying on the table, looked at the man opposite with only his eyes exposed. After a while, he said in a low voice: "I know you are very powerful, but you just won't do anything." explain……"
"I just don't want you to lose confidence." Duan Qing shook his head and said, "And... don't follow any crooked ways."
"..."
Amidst the rush of people, the woman lying on the table fell into silence again. After a while, she slowly spoke: "But... Jian Beidong will not participate in the competition, and I don't know his location... "
"I want to learn sword moves... why is it so troublesome?"
Looking at the game viewing screen in front of him, Duan Qing curled his lips helplessly: "The people here... there are many things for you to learn."
He rummaged for a while, and then stopped somewhere: "Well, this is it...can you still watch the game?"
"...What's the number?"
"Game No. 1009." Duan Qing curled his lips: "It's so fast... Are there so few people left?"
"...After ten rounds, the alliance will decide the candidates for the offline competition."
Slowly sitting up straight, Xue Ling Huan Bing took a few breaths, then held his forehead with one hand and started operating in front of him: "According to the current progress, this is already very slow. So we also speculate that the system is likely to speed up the progress in the next time... Is this Yun Jingbu's case?"
"Yes." Duan Qing snapped his fingers: "I have been paying attention to these guys who are second in the world for a long time. Although their game is not eye-catching, they are really strong and they play really well. They are worthy of being active in the league. Ranked fifth..."
"Tell the important point."
"Ahem...look at his actions."
In the picture, the man in black clothes turned around and dodged the sword that was insidiously handed out from behind the opponent's shield. Then he suddenly stepped forward and hit the opponent's shield with a stick: "Boom!"
Amidst the deafening impact, the figures of the two people separated as soon as they touched each other, and each flew towards the back.
"Look at this...that moment just now, can you do it?"
"That Yun Jingbu... the iron rod in his hand is also an epic weapon." Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes gradually became sharp: "It has a very high power bonus, and its attack power will increase as the distance increases. Increasingly, according to intelligence, the iron rod will also change form..."
"...Okay, I guess you memorize it well." Duan Qing curled his lips helplessly, pointed at the two people who bumped into each other again on the screen and said: "Then let me ask a different question...if you are asked to fight against such a person Shield Bearer, what would you do?”
"...His shield has a shock effect, so it would be difficult to hit him head-on." Xueling Huanbing flipped through the opponent's information: "So...I will probably choose to take a roundabout way and look for opportunities."
"What if it's hit from the front?"
"..."
The woman looked at the man opposite her with thoughtful eyes, as if she was thinking about possible countermeasures and the meaning behind this question, but Duan Qing did not wait for her to give her answer: "In a normal battle, we can't know him. The shield has such special effects, so he will definitely be hit once, and then explore the opponent's routine in the battle. Judging from the battle trajectory of these two people, this Yun Jingbu obviously did the same, so he will do it once Being knocked away again..."
"In other words, normal battles begin with testing, and testing... requires an effective attack."
Duan Qing pointed to the figure on the screen, where Yun Jingbu had just knocked out another stick, and then suddenly lifted the stick the moment it was rebounded, and turned to use the other end of the iron stick to hit the opponent's shield from bottom to top. Flir away. The shield hand who did not expect the opponent's attack hurriedly changed his moves and slashed the sword that was originally directed at the opponent onto the iron rod. Then, before Yun Jingbu's imminent horizontal stick attack, he blocked his shield with the sword. Face: "Drink!"
Peiran's huge force pushed Yun Jingbu and his stick out, and at the same time defused the continuous attacks he was about to make.
"These two people..." Xue Ling Huan Bing said softly: "They are both very powerful."
"It's just a test." Duan Qing shook his head and said, "There are many ways to break the shield, but for now it seems... he has no such intention."
"……so what?"
"So hurry up and get started!"
As if he couldn't control his mood, Duan Qing shouted at the screen: "Don't you, the second best person in the world, like to be reckless? Don't you have a hard head? Hurry up and get it done. I'm still waiting for an explanation..."
boom!
Before Duan Qing could finish speaking, the shield hand had already knocked on his iron shield and rushed towards the man in black, as if he didn't want the other man to open up enough space on the grassland. But before he could rush to the other party's side, the iron rod, which was as tall as a person, was erected on the grass between the two of them. Holding both ends of the iron rod tightly with both hands, the man in black turned around gracefully, raised the stick to block the shield just before it hit him, and then used the force of the blow to fly upward into the air. .
Only this time, instead of being knocked away, he turned around and pressed the end of the iron rod to the top of the shieldman's head.
"This is it." Duan Qing reminded immediately.
clang!
At the same time as the harsh sound of metal collision sounded, the player named Yun Jingbu did not retreat or lag at all. He just maintained the previous descent and fell to the ground together with the forward-stretched iron rod. He held the end of the iron rod with one hand and suddenly took a step forward. The other end of the iron rod swayed on the opponent's shield that had just blocked him, and then in a moment, it stopped somewhere near the middle. .
Boom!
Another deafening muffled sound echoed over the grassland - the man in black slapped the other end of the iron rod with his palm, sending the opponent flying away with both man and shield.
"Wow——"
Synchronized screams seemed to come from the distance, but Duan Qing closed his screen as if to call it a day, and looked at the woman opposite with a smile: "Do you understand?"
"What... did he try?"
"The upper and lower limits of that shield."
As night fell, Duan Qing, with his hands behind his head, looked at the starry sky outside the window and explained in a slow voice: "The previous moment when he flew back in the air, he was not shaken away, and the subsequent shock was still not shaken. Fly... He used his previous testing and strength control to test out how much force the shield would respond to before attacking, and then broke through the shield's defense. Once the shield's special effects were in vain, the opponent The threat is not worth mentioning."
"In a sense, this can be considered a breakthrough from the front." He sighed and then concluded leisurely.
"Is it possible to try this kind of thing...?"
"As long as you have enough control over your own power, you can try out the things not mentioned in the special effects of these equipments." Facing the woman's confused eyes, Duan Qing spread his hands and explained: "Every shield, every piece of equipment can be tried out." Weapons and the special effects behind them are not fixed. You should know this better than me. But the key to the problem is whether you can study the limits of these special effects and then use them in real battles, or restrain them. .”
"This principle is the same when it comes to the use of power." Duan Qing gestured with Yun Jingbu's last movement with both hands: "That blow can be replaced by a spear, or it can be replaced by a long sword, One-handed swords, broadswords, and even shields can all be done, as long as you know the performance and weight of your weapon very well, and..."
"How much force should you use yourself."
"..."
"The so-called secret between strength and skill mentioned by professional players is this." Duan Qing showed a mysterious smile: "When you understand this truth, the so-called use of sword energy will not be useful to you. It shouldn’t be a very difficult thing. But now..."
"Let's go back to the question at the beginning." He spun his fingers in the air, and then clicked on the woman's eyebrows that were knit together in thought: "What you just said...can you do it?"
"Go! Go! Go."
The woman's face turned red imperceptibly, then she slapped the other person's hand away angrily, and said coldly while rummaging through her screen.
"Next game." (To be continued.)
