Chapter 22: The Instinct to Fight
"Huh?"
Nameless let out a look of surprise and looked at Wood with a puzzled expression.
Although the moment just now was short, she could see it clearly when she was close at hand.
At the moment when the kick immediately landed on the side of Wood's head, the other party suddenly slapped his right hand on the ground, and the whole person flipped up.
But this is not a nameless surprise, after all, Wood's strength is there, but the angle of this sideways turn is extremely exquisite, almost dodging her kick, and steadily turning from lying down to combat power.
The action is smooth to the extreme, and there is no sense of rustiness at all.
This surprised Nameless.
Coincidental?
It's too much of a coincidence.
On the other side, Wood looked at his hands, and his face couldn't help but be surprised.
Normally, he thought it was just a coincidence, but what wasn't it was ...... Wood didn't even think it was a coincidence, but had a sense of taking it for granted.
It's as if ......
An instinct.
Instinct in the blood.
He now finally understood what that extra was when he fused.
Fighting instincts!
The fighting instinct that the vampire once left in his blood, perhaps because of the fusion of the Kabane virus, caused a wonderful change in his own blood, and this fighting instinct was activated.
Just now, he completely subconsciously made what he instinctively thought was the best dodge move.
Doesn't that mean......
I'm really strong now?
Wood's eyes lit up, and Nameless said that his strength, speed, and everything were above her, and now that he had combat skills, it was not easy to abuse her.
Thinking of this, Wood suddenly got excited.
It's not that he's excited about getting stronger, it's that he's excited to be able to beat up Nameless.
This girl is willful, and her attack is neither light nor heavy, and Wood has long wanted to beat her up.
He wasn't interested in challenging the strong, but bullying the weak with a super high profile still made Wood feel very enjoyable.
Wood looked up and looked at Nameless with a proud expression.
And yet—
'Bang! ’
With a muffled sound, Wood, who had just raised his head, was directly imprinted in the face by a punch, and the whole person shot out backwards, and his head hit the wall of the carriage hard, making a heavy impact sound......
"Hey,, you're going to die!" In a daze, Wood opened his mouth and scolded.
In the next second, he was sent flying by a side kick.
Then.
Wood realized that Nameless had untied the limiter ribbon around his neck at some point, and his little face was full of eagerness.
"If you don't fight back, you'll be beaten up by me for a whole day."
Witch ......
This is a lawless witch.
Even if I did a lot of evil in my previous life, I wouldn't have met such a woman.
Wood felt this grievance in his heart, got up and stepped directly on the floor, and pounced towards Nameless in a bear-hugging posture.
He discovered it thoroughly, instinct is instinct, but it is not so easy to implement instinct immediately.
Nameless ducked, his palms on the ground, and before Wood could fly over her head, he was kicked back.
"Wait, I don't really need to fight!"
'Bang! ’
"Hey, I'm angry when you hit me again."
'Bang! ’
"Sister, nameless sister."
'Bang! ’
“……”
Ikoma gloated as he watched Wood, who was begging for mercy, and it felt really nice to see others go through the same tragedy as himself.
……
In the days that followed, Wood was beaten almost every day, except for sleeping, eating, drinking, and lazaring.
But the speed at which he progressed was terrifying, and every day seemed to be a different person.
The instinct inherited in the blood awakens with the battle after battle.
In order not to be beaten by the no-list side, Wood can only choose to improve.
There was no need to think about escaping, and in order to prevent Wood from sneaking away, the hatch was locked outside every time, and the carriage was only so big that there was nowhere to run.
And, what left Wood speechless the most was ...... Once she relies on her speed to wander with the nameless, this girl will chase for a while and start playing with the nature of a bear child, so she will use the gun directly!
No matter how fast he was, Wood wasn't confident that he would be able to escape the nameless shot.
In the end, I could only bear this inhumane abuse helplessly, and I even had the urge to flee from the Iron City.
Of course, this is just a thought, although it is mixed with this little girl's playfulness, but Nameless and Ikoma are for their own good, Wood still knows this, otherwise he would have been angry!
And if he wants to improve, he can only keep getting acquainted with the nameless attack.
Keep it simple......
It's to be beaten.
Then from the battle, he constantly induces the fighting instinct in his blood and transforms it into his own fighting skills.
Originally, Wood was just a half-vampire with no power but no use, and to use a rotten street metaphor, he was a baby with a gun next to it, and it was useless to scare people.
But after continuous beatings, his already terrifying physical ability was thoroughly excavated, and the use of power in the blood, such as the angle of force, posture, muscle force, etc., made his progress even more terrifying.
It's a wonderful feeling, as if something you once knew could be quickly recalled and mastered after a simple reminder.
All you need is that kind of run-in period with yourself.
There is no doubt that the battle is the best run-in.
This feeling that he is getting stronger every day makes Wood, who has never valued his own strength, a little addicted.
Wood gasped, and the high-priced hazmat suit on his body was a little tattered.
He couldn't remember how many times he had fought Nameless.
Probably every man's yearning, Wood actually felt that the taste of punching someone else was very pleasant, and the feeling of punching to the flesh could even make people forget their own pain and devote themselves to the fight to the fullest.
Of course......
The premise is that you unilaterally abuse others.
Sure enough, bullying the weak is the king!
Nameless also looked a little embarrassed, and Wood's progress these days has completely exceeded her expectations.
Normally, when you receive your own training, the other party should be similar to your own fighting skills and style like Ikoma, but Wood seems to be joking with her, not to mention the skills and style, and even the most basic things such as force methods are completely different from herself.
What is this self-trained? Who believes it?
Although Wood's fighting skills were not known how to learn, Nameless could vaguely feel that those fighting skills were more suitable for Wood, a vampire.
It seems that he is not training him, but is using him as a sparring partner to hone his skills.
"Stop!"
Wood, who was just about to rush up, was stunned and subconsciously said, "What's wrong?" ”
"You're actually very strong, aren't you?" Nameless and angry, then put his hands behind his head, turned around and walked out.
Wood: "??? ”
What do you mean?
Nameless walked a few steps, as if remembering something, and turned around and said, "By the way, you should also go and practice marksmanship, you can't see Kabane rushing directly to hand-to-hand combat." ”
“……”
The corners of Wood's mouth twitched, he hadn't thought about it all these days, and after Nameless said this, he suddenly realized......
Combat skills are a kind of, huh?
It is impossible for him to run to fight Kabane in close combat, and it is obviously more useful to deal with Kabane.
……
