Leah looked at Xia Kia cautiously, she had orc blood, and she was very confident in the toughness of her body. Of course, it is also because she has not tasted defeat for a long time, and subconsciously does not believe that anyone can defeat her.

In fact, Leah is not clear about the true strength of the hunter. But after all, she is a guest, so she should be cautious.

Speaking directly, there was some refutation of Xia Kia's face, but she couldn't let Linda play, Liya muttered: "Linda, she is a guest of Blackstone Castle, I think, we should be polite." ”

"Hmm. Linda kind of understood what she meant, and told her to be as gentle as possible.

Xia Qiya waved her hand and said, "In the Colosseum, there are no hosts and guests, only enemies. If you want to be a true fighter, you must always see your opponent as your worst enemy. Regardless of whether it is injured or tired, never let your guard down, a seriously injured cheetah, biting the neck, can be fatal. ”

"Of course, now it's just a test of your strength. Come on!"

"Well, well. Linda nodded slightly, "Linda, Linda Paltrow." What's your name, please?"

"Just call me Hunter, I don't have a name. ”

Xia Qiya didn't seem to interrupt revealing her name to anyone, she was giggling on the surface, but in fact she had already taken a breath, and the muscles in her abdomen solidified. This is a technique taught to her by her father, dense muscles, tough skin, and effective resistance to unarmed attacks.

"Rude, Lord Hunter. Linda clenched her fists, took a light breath, and pulled her arms apart, and the strength began to gather in her fists.

Xia Qiya's brows furrowed, this posture of not moving her legs in place, not moving her waist, and just relying on the power of her arm swing to punch is obviously a rookie.

Especially the fist the size of an apple...... Fair and tender, not even calloused.

The next moment, Linda punched out.

Poof.

Mid-abdomen.

The moment the fist hit, Liya's heart also instantly lifted, for fear that in the next second, Xia Qiya would fly out upside down, which would be terrible.

Xia Qiya's tense abdominal muscles are far tougher than ordinary people, and the dense muscles can also dissolve part of the strength.

However, things were not what she had imagined.

At the moment when the small fist hit the abdomen, a huge force spread like a shockwave, and the muscles were only buffered for a short time, and they were dispersed, and the aftermath spread to the internal organs.

It's pitiful, Xia Qiya had just had a full meal before she came, and she hadn't had time to digest it yet. The aftermath was like a stirrator, lifting the food and wine in the stomach pouch, tumbling up, rushing up along the esophagus.

Vomit......

A stream of heat stuck in the main voice, Xia Qiya's body shook a little, her face instantly turned red, her eyes widened, her mouth was tightly closed, she barely held her breath, and she pressed it hard.

How is this possible!!

Xia Qiya, who was extremely experienced in combat, clearly judged that the power of the punch of the little girl in front of her was no less than that of an adult orc warrior.

What's even more terrifying is that her power skills are obviously very poor.

In other words, if she mastered the exquisite power technique, her strength would be multiplied, surpassing the power of the orcs.

In fact, Linda, who comprehended the heavy blow of falling rocks, and Linda, whose level has reached lv15, has steadily increased her physique, and now she has reached a terrifying 42 points, which is equivalent to the combined strength of two orc warriors.

With Leah's reminder, Linda tried her best to control the burst of power, using less than half of her strength.

"It's amazing!" Luna looked at Xia Qiya who was not moving, her face was full of admiration, Linda's heavy punch could hammer all the orcs away, it can be seen that Xia Qia is indeed outstanding.

Looking at Xia Qiya, whose face was flushed and her cheeks were about to bulge, Linda's face was full of nervousness: "Your Excellency Hunter, you ...... Are you alright?"

Liya and the others also hurriedly gathered around.

Xia Qiya endured the horror in her heart, and she was a little panicked.

If you spit it out in public, you won't be able to raise your head in the future.

No, you can't spit it out!

vomited the reputation of this life and it came to naught......

Xia Qiya took a deep breath through her nose and forcibly pressed the food in her throat with great willpower, before she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and laughed awkwardly: "Your strength, it's not bad." ”

"Your Excellency Hunter, that's amazing. Luna couldn't help but compliment, "You're the first person I've ever seen, who can still survive a punch from Linda." ”

Xia Qiya's face was hot, and she covered up her embarrassment by sweeping the green hair on her sideburns: "Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing." In the Colosseum, I felt much more power than that. It was a Crypt Demon from the Monster Forest, with arms thicker than my waist. ”

"Wow......" Luna is full of admiration for warriors, and her face is full of adoration: "Miss Hunter, can you teach me too? I want to be a brave fighter too." ”

"The art of killing is not for a pretty girl like you. Xia Qiya snorted, but her eyes were always on Linda, she really couldn't figure out why such a weak body would burst out with such a powerful force.

This curiosity aroused her interest: "Linda, right? You have shown your strength, and I will also fulfill my promise to teach you the techniques that you can use to your full strength." ”

"Thank you!" was able to punch herself, and Linda was also very admired: "I'm glad to accept your advice." ”

"I have eaten your blackstone collar and drunk your wine. Don't worry, I'll definitely show my skills. Come on, the strength test is complete, and the next step is the agility test. ”

"Remember, agility is the condition for skill to be realized, and strength can be useful. Come on, let me try your skills, and if you can hit me, we can move on to the next lesson. ”

In order to win back a city, Xia Qiya took out all her skills, and also gave full play to the talent of the Winter Forest Demon she inherited, and under Linda's undisciplined fierce attack, she flickered and moved with ease.

Until Linda stopped panting, she never touched her.

"You're talented, but you don't have the anticipation to fight, and you don't have the physical coordination. Also, your fists, though powerful, lack coordination with your legs and feet, like a person being split into two parts. I think I know where to start so that you can learn what real combat is. ”

And Linda also personally realized what is called superb combat skills, at least when she doesn't use skills, Xia Qiya's exquisite body style dazzles her.

However, it also aroused her fighting spirit.

"Miss Hunter, come again!"

Looking at the two of them entangled together on the grass, a smile overflowed from the corner of Liya's mouth: "She is a qualified teacher, Linda, she will definitely learn exquisite skills from her and fully realize her potential." ”

"Leah. Alice smiled and said, "This Miss Hunter's personality is indeed unusual, like a big child. ”

"It has something to do with her experience. "Actually, her experience was very complicated, even a little tragic. But she survived, relying on a strong will, and a love of freedom. ”

"Gee, I really want to learn. Luna pouted and pulled Elena, "What about you?"

Elena, who remained silent the whole time, suddenly said, "Do you think she is strange?"

Everyone looked over: "Strange?"

"That's right. Elena stared closely at Xia Qiya, who showed her extreme body technique: "Her steps are very strange, and many times, she can't dodge." However, at that moment, her body didn't even need to exert force to ...... In short, it was a strange moment. ”

"That's her talent. Leah was surprised to find out that on the night of the assassination, she had witnessed Shakia's ability to produce phantom evasions.

......

"Qin, I'm back. ”

Alice, who rushed back to the cabin, greeted her warmly. Qin Song, who was holding a quill and writing and drawing on parchment, raised his head: "How is it? Alice, the hunter?"

"Her fighting skills are really good. Alice moved a wooden stool and sat down beside Qin Song: "Linda must be able to learn a lot." But...... If Linda had used her powers, she wouldn't have been an opponent. What is this?Qin ......"

"Drawings. Qin Song unfolded the parchment: "The kind of brick kiln buried in the ground is still too inefficient. This is my redesigned vertical brick kiln and we should have enough bricks now. ”

The vertical brick kiln on the drawing, shaped like an enlarged version of the hot pot, is set up on all sides of the kiln mouth, the center is set up with a furnace, lined with all the foaming grass ash clay and slag mixed into the insulation layer, which can achieve annular combustion and make full use of heat energy, the ventilation kiln mouth with a cover plate is set on the top, and the outer layer is mixed with heavy clay grass and wood ash.

This kind of brick kiln is close to the vertical brick kiln of later generations, using the principle of natural ventilation of the honeycomb coal road, but limited to technical conditions, there is no supporting steel lining, and the water circulation system.

But it is much more advanced than the half-ground brick kiln.

Alice's eyes were full of admiration: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Yes. Qin Song smiled slightly: "The weather is gradually getting colder, and winter is coming." Bricks just give us shelter from the elements. However, if there is a lack of firewood, it can be difficult to survive in winter, especially when it comes to cooking. So, today, we're going to design a coal-burning stove first. ”

"A stove like a steam engine?" Alice said, curious.

"No, Alice, it's a simpler, cheaper, and more durable stove. If it is successful, it can be popularized, so that every farmer no longer has to worry about firewood. ”

On the premise that there were not enough bricks to build a fire kang, Qin Song decided to build a honeycomb coal stove first to solve the problem of cooking in an all-round way. If you add a chimney to deal with the gas problem, it can also be used for heating.
