Chapter XVII. Coastal Base
One after another, people kept coming out of the forest, but some people never appeared, which is not dead.
But because this island is densely forested, the terrain is complex, some people are far away, and some people are lost.
Fortunately, the whole island was under surveillance, and under the search of the revolutionary army, everyone soon gathered.
The sad death did not happen, but there was still a new reserve who had a broken hand, but judging by his mental outlook, it seems that he does not intend to retire from the army, but to persevere, for which the fish-man Haku gives great praise.
This is the quality that a true revolutionary army should have, which is indomitable and will never be defeated by difficulties and setbacks.
After that, everyone boarded the boat and left the island.
The anxiety and uneasiness when they came were smoothed out, and when they looked at the island that was slowly moving away, Rez and the others couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Really, I almost had an accident several times."
"Me too, I was almost disemboweled by a bobcat once, but fortunately I was clever."
The new reservists exchanged in a low voice, and their hearts were palpitating.
"Rez, how many beasts did you kill?" Someone asked curiously.
"No more, no more, a dozen or so."
Rez shook his head slightly, a little dissatisfied, as the existence with the highest Dao power among the new reserves, he has always held himself to a very high standard, but he didn't expect that the performance of this actual battle would be so ordinary.
"This is already very good, it is said that the reserve of the last session is almost this result." Some people said enviously.
People are always different, and some people are born with the qualifications of the strong, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger.
"I don't know how Rod's grades are......" At this time, someone whispered.
"I don't know."
Rez shook his head and said, "But he is a sword master, and his efficiency in killing beasts should be better than mine, but at most there are only a dozen of them." ”
"After all, his speed is too slow, his strength is weak, and if he encounters a slightly more powerful beast, I'm afraid he will have to flee."
The rest of the new reservists nodded in agreement.
Rhodes' physical weakness is obvious to all, and no one knows it better than them.
At this time, Nia walked by, heard their conversation, couldn't help but smile lightly, threw over a piece of paper and said:
"Let's see, this time in the actual combat mission, the list of the top ten performers is out."
"Huh?"
Rez grabbed it quickly, glanced at the name on it, and suddenly the whole person froze.
When the rest of the newly promoted reservists saw his reaction, they all came over curiously, and suddenly, they all froze in place, their eyes widened, and their pupils trembled violently, as if they had seen something most incredible.
I saw that the one in the first place was Rhodes who was in the same class as them!
"You are survival, people are games."
Looking at their collectively bewildered expressions, Nia smiled and turned to leave.
Volleyed a sword to kill the big snake, Rod's performance, if it wasn't the best in the game, Nia would be the first to believe it.
As the results came out, there was an uproar on the deck, and everyone was in disbelief, in the past, the top ten was basically dominated by the captains, with few exceptions.
"It seems that this newcomer named Rhodes is very powerful."
"I heard that he is a sword master, but I didn't expect it to be so strong."
"Xia Nuo has an opponent."
There was a lot of talk about it, and they were all a little excited and curious.
They are not afraid of the appearance of super newcomers, because having this kind of companion can greatly increase their chances of survival in the mission.
Standing alone in the bow of the boat, Xia Nuo, who was recuperating with his eyes closed, was also awakened by the commotion.
"Young Sword Hero?"
Reading it softly, Xia Nuo smiled lightly, and he didn't care, because the gap between the sword masters was actually very large, and he didn't think that the young Rhodes had the strength to fight him.
……
Half a day later.
The sailboat returns to the island of white soil.
Rod walked out of the cabin, and he could clearly feel the eyes of the others looking at him, and there was a big difference, Rez and the others were in awe, and the rest of the reservists were mostly curious and provocative.
"Are the results announced?"
Rod's eyes flashed slightly, and he reacted instantly, probably because of the bonus brought by killing the big snake, which made his performance ahead of everyone.
Of course, he didn't care about that.
He put on his coat, followed the team, and began another journey into the desert.
The fishman Haku didn't seem to have the intention of going back to the headquarters directly, he took Rhodes and the others and marched all the way along the coastline, and soon came to a place with complicated terrain.
Rhodes could clearly feel that there were many sentry posts in the shadows, and he could even faintly see the dark muzzles of the guns from some covert places.
"This is the coastal base, which is responsible for monitoring the coastline of Shiratu Island and preventing pirates from accidentally landing on the island from entering the headquarters."
Haku said a little and walked into the base hall with the reservists.
Haku didn't say much about how to deal with these pirates, but it was clear that it wouldn't end well.
As a high-ranking cadre of the revolutionary army, Haku has a very high authority and status, and he passes all the way, and the revolutionary troops he meets are respectful and saluted.
"Rez, you stay, and the rest of the rest go and rest."
Arriving at a hall, Haku the Fish-Man ordered.
"Yes!" Nia and the others soon dispersed, leaving only Rhodes as the new reservists.
The scene fell silent for a while.
After a long time, Haku spoke: "I believe that after this actual battle, you all have a deeper understanding of your own strength. ”
"In real combat, physical fitness is only one aspect, swordsmanship, physical skills, and consciousness all occupy an important part, or even more important!"
"Without that, you're just a reckless man with brute force......"
Combined with their previous experiences, Rez and the others all nodded subconsciously, revealing a thoughtful look.
Before that, they were just training their bodies hard, refining their bodies, and they felt that if they were strong enough, they could suppress everything.
The truth is true, but they can't practice to the extent of suppressing everything in one go, and in this process, the swordsmanship that can exert the strength of the physique, the physical skill is extremely important.
As for consciousness, it can only rely on the accumulation of experience through repeated battles, and this is not in a hurry.
"Last time, I taught you to change the way you breathe, which is the foundation of physical strength."
The fishman Haku stood with his hands in his hands and said in a low voice: "Today, what I want to teach you is a high-level physical technique, the six forms. ”
"These six styles are the shaving that moves instantaneously, and the moon step that can walk in the void......"
After a brief introduction, he began to practice the six styles, moving very slowly, explaining the difficulties and tricks.
"Navy Six?"
Rhodes blinked, but it was not surprising, with the degree of penetration of the revolutionary army into the world, it was a matter of course to master the extremely practical advanced physical skills of the Navy Six Styles.
Nia has used shaving before.
For Rod, the six forms are also worth learning, but they don't need to be learned.
Lanjiao's slash was simply a joke in the eyes of his swordsman, and the finger gun was even more useless, and he didn't need to learn any strange kung fu of two-finger Zen, and his physical fitness was completely OK.
As for iron blocks and paper paintings, these two abilities seem to lay the foundation for two-color domineering, and with Rhodes' physical enhancement speed, I believe that the conditions for practicing two-color domineering will soon be met, and there is not much need to learn.
"The explosive displacement of the shave, as well as the aerial effect of the moon step, are the most useful to me."
Rod sighed in his heart, and his eyes were always on Haku on the stage.
With his twice the intelligence of ordinary people, it is natural that he can easily memorize the relevant skills, but to really learn them, he still has to practice them many times by himself.
