Chapter 552: Westward (3)
"Collapse!" The first arrow was shot and plunged into the mud around the river.
It was a wild beast, a hippopotamus, and it wasn't even a little frightened.
Perhaps in its eyes, I am such a lonely minotaur that I pose no threat to it at all.
Of course, if you are an ordinary angry warrior, maybe it will dodge, but unfortunately, the anger on my body now has been obscured by the cool energy, and it can't detect it.
Speaking of which, Huaxia's cultivation technique is really good at restraining his own aura.
Seeing that the hippo ignored my "attack", I walked forward with peace of mind.
"Collapse!"
"Collapse!"
"Collapse!"
The rest of the sticks were shot one after another, and none of them hit.
It seems that without Leo's correction, I am still not suitable for archery.
Even if it's the protagonist's aura, there are places that can't be taken care of......
However, when I was only left with the last small stick, ready to go straight to melee combat if I missed again, the accident happened again.
The last arrow missed, but it was an inconspicuous "stone" stuck not far from the hippopotamus.
"Huh!"
The "stone" screamed.
It turned out that this was a hippopotamus cub.
"Huh! Hey! Hey! ”
The hippopotamus was furious, jumped out of the quagmire, and rushed towards me.
I took out my shield hammer and prepared to clean it up.
Leo suddenly said, "Is it interesting to bully low-level monsters?" ”
"What then?" I asked.
"Keep practicing!" Leo said.
"Okay!" I put away my shield and ran to the hippopotamus, staggered, dodged the mud that was thrown everywhere, picked up the sticks stuck in the mire, and shot the arrow with my bow again.
This time, the distance between me and the hippopotamus was only a dozen paces, and of course I wouldn't miss again.
"Who got you so close?" Leo said, "Run far!" ”
I didn't get impatient and quickly distanced myself from the hippopotamus.
The hippopotamus was in hot pursuit, and the hippopotamus cub was shot with an arrow and was slightly injured, but it did not affect its mobility, and it also chased after him.
So, I took the two hippos, one big and one small, and ran around.
Sansan followed a few steps, and was pulled back to the group by Centurion Schalp.
The large force over there simply stopped.
It's so funny that something that can be solved with a hammer, but I'm still very serious about it......
At the right speed possible, you can feel the deformation of the bow, the tightness of the bowstring, the texture and weight of the stick itself, and the effect of the flow of air on the shooting.
This is the most basic part of Hadiam's Archer Practice.
Archery is divided into fixed-point shooting and mobile shooting, fixed-point shooting is naturally the easiest, if I stand and practice step by step, until the arrow is empty, and then start to practice mobile shooting, it will take more time.
Starting directly from mobile shooting, it can be regarded as a "shortcut".
Of course, shortcuts also require a lot of energy, a lot of effort and sweat – if I want to.
Moreover, the bow in my hand is just an ordinary product, and the arrows are wooden sticks picked up on the side of the road, which can better reflect the effect of training.
After all, you can't practice much with good equipment, especially in the initial stages.
There are also very good weapons in the underground treasure, there are several bows and arrows alone, I promised the Five Rangers, whoever does well in the future will reward them with new equipment, but there is no one suitable for using a bow, and I can't take out a bow to practice now.
During the run, I shot several arrows in a row, because of the distance, the accuracy is actually very good, but unfortunately, the texture of the arrow itself is too poor, even the skin of the hippopotamus can not be pierced, but the hippo cub is shot "huh" non-stop, which further angered the hippopotamus and charged me frantically.
However, with this speed and strength, it can't outrun me, even if I'm standing still, it can't hit me.
So, even though it seems like I'm out of the woods, and even a little scrambling, in fact, the effect I want is also coming - at least, I can adjust my breathing, my arms, and coordinate my movements again and again, and shoot more accurate arrows, and at the same time, I don't have to worry about the target falling down and losing the opportunity to practice.
Shooting and fighting are really not the same thing.
Whether it is a sword, sword, stick, axe, hammer shield, totem, dagger, or even a javelin, it relies more on strength, and although the importance of skill is not low, it will not occupy an absolute dominant position.
And in shooting, power is in a secondary position, and it is not possible to do without power, and power alone is completely in vain. Skill, judgment and mentality are the key points of shooting.
The small sticks that were shot out wore out quickly, but fortunately there were a lot of small bushes around that could be replenished, and the hippo helped the cubs pull out the sticks that were inserted in their bodies, and Leo also picked them up and returned them to me with some bad taste, which is called "recycling", and the poor hippopotamus cubs suffered a great sin.
"That's cruel!" I say.
"The book says that hippos spoil crops and kill villagers several times as many times as elephant rhinoceros," Leo said, "and even though this is the territory of the troll tribe, you can be considered to have done harm to the people." ”
"Eliminate harm for the people? Wouldn't it be better to be killed with an arrow? I said, "Well, let's stop playing, let's switch to another target......
"You're really, you didn't relent, you didn't relent, and now you're starting to fake mercy again!" Leo said.
"I really didn't expect it just now!" I put on a regular arrow and prepared to end the life of the baby hippopotamus.
"Whoa, whoa—"
There was a sharp and loud howl, and five adult hippos suddenly burst out from behind the small trees in the distance.
"Ahh Leo was a little surprised.
"Didn't you notice?" I asked.
"Don't tell me, I really ignored them," Leo said without any guilt, "and it wasn't a threat." ”
"Forget it!" I said, "Then let's go straight to the real thing, and eat with everyone!" ”
I had no choice but to use my anger directly and exert part of my strength.
"Collapse!"
A small stick, with anger, shot directly through the hippopotamus cub's head and nailed into the dirt on the other side, and the hippopotamus staggered and rushed forward a few steps, falling to the ground.
"Huh-"
The hippopotamus suddenly became furious and roared and rushed at me.
I picked up a small stick, stood still, and shot Jane.
"Collapse!"
"Poof......
The stick shot out of the string, with anger, and shot head-on between the hippopotamus's eyes, penetrating the head, and shooting all the way deep into the body.
Then the hippopotamus shook as if drunk, and fell to the ground less than twenty paces from me, and a mountain of meat rolled twice, until it came to a halt about eight paces from me, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Twitter!" The Tyrannosaurus rex shouted happily, "Roast meat!" ”
I looked at the approaching five-headed hippopotamus and smiled to reassure the Tyrannosaurus rex: "Don't worry, I'll have to eat soon!" ”
Then, I started to tie the bow.
"Collapse...... Collapse...... Collapse...... Collapse...... Collapse ......"
Five muffled sounds sounded unhurriedly, and the five hippos "fell" in turn.
When the last two hippos realized that something was wrong and wanted to stop and turn their heads, it was too late.
After a few moments, Centurion Schalp sent two centurions to help, and I slowed down the team to move on, and the centurion and his men dissected the hippopotamus separately, and the Tyrannosaurus rex directly burned the fire and roasted the meat dry.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex's control of the flames was well exercised when Terraria hurried back to Thunder City, and he was able to switch back and forth between killing enemies and roasting meat, Leo said with satisfaction: "This is a must-have pet for home travel, killing people and goods!" "It's kind of like that......
He added: "It's still cost-effective for you steppe peoples, and the food will be solved halfway...... If you are a farming people, it is estimated that you will have to double the number of miscellaneous laborers to transport grain and grass. ”
It took a little while to make the seven-headed hippopotamus into jerky, and the team had already gone out for a long time, so we hurried to follow.
In the process of making jerky, the Tyrannosaurus rex ate roast meat almost the size of a wild boar.
This amount of food is already very restrained......
The soldiers were amazed to see the Tyrannosaurus rex making jerky, and they were even more surprised to see that it could eat so much meat, and they frequently looked at the Tyrannosaurus rex in the following trip.
There were even a few soldiers who had participated in the escort team of the Young Warriors Conference, and they talked about the amazing performance of the Tyrannosaurus Rex in the competition.
The soldiers soon spread the story, and I didn't care, until even the Centurion of Sharpe knew about it and came to me to verify it.
I didn't hide it anymore, nodding my head in acknowledgement.
As a result, during the next trip, the soldiers were in awe of me as a commander and didn't care much about my pets, but now they were faintly optimistic about the Tyrannosaurus Rex and looked down on me......
Probably those soldiers intentionally or unintentionally skipped the duel between me and the young patriarch......
Speechless, the team continued to move forward, the speed was steady, as planned, and arrived on time.
And my training with Sansan is still going on.
By the time we were about to get out of the Troll Clan's territory, Sansan finally woke up his anger.
It was a normal afternoon, and everyone had a casual lunch, and continued on their way, out of the border of the troll territory.
I practiced archery as usual, and the Tyrannosaurus rex flew out as usual, seeing that I was going to snatch my arrows again, Sansan screamed, and a faint cyan light rose from his body, and his speed skyrocketed instantly, surpassing the Tyrannosaurus rex in the air, and grabbed the small wooden stick inserted into the ground.
"Tsk!" The Tyrannosaurus rex was overtaken by her once, and she was so anxious that she wanted to attack.
I hurried to stop the Tyrannosaurus rex, but the soldiers exclaimed, "Ah! Rabbit people, rabbit people can also awaken anger? "Memoirs of a bull head
