Chapter 86: Be prepared for danger in times of peace

Blindfolded and armed with a long sword, Victor stood on the training ground, surrounded by eight iron oak targets. Victor took a deep breath and directly entered the state of the apocalypse, although he couldn't see it, the subtle air flow in the air, blowing through the entire training ground, made Victor's mind form a three-dimensional image.

This image clearly reveals all the information within a radius of twelve meters to Victor, he can easily "see" the lines on the iron oak target, and he can also "see" seven ants swimming around on the ground, all of which of course is not seen with his eyes, but the ubiquitous wind element transmits all the information to Victor.

The most amazing thing is that with the help of X-3, Victor's skin senses the humidity, temperature, and flow rate of the air, and his sense of smell can distinguish the various odors that permeate the air, and his ears can hear eighteen heartbeats from dozens of meters away. All of this information was filtered and filtered by X-3DE to form a larger image in Victor's brain.

This image, clear and slow within 12 meters, gradually blurred and rapid 12 meters away, until 70 meters away became chaos, even so Victor clearly knew that 40 meters away, there were fifteen guards with hunting bows and the location of each of them, through the difference in heartbeat and smell, Victor even knew the identity of each of them.

Seeing Victor raise her sword, Lilia bit her finely broken white fangs and ordered, "Don't aim at the head and neck of the adult, now shoot freely!"

The guards looked at each other, hesitating to shoot the arrows in their hands, although these arrows did not have arrows, and they were useless to Victor, who was wearing thick leather armor.

Barrett, the mercenary commander's face sank, and as the instructor of the camp guards, he was annoyed by the cowering behavior of these guards. Barrett raised the long whip in his hand and slammed it on the back of one of the guards, roaring angrily, "Execute the order!"

The guards finally shot arrows at Victor, who was 40 meters away, and these headless arrows flew at a speed of about 100 meters per second, and reached Victor in a split second.

Victor sensed Lilia's worries, the guards' fears, and Barrett's embarrassment, but none of this had anything to do with him, and in the face of so much information, X-3 helped Victor get rid of useless emotions and distractions, and he was calm like a robot at this time.

In Victor's perception, fifteen arrows shot at him from all angles, the speed changed from fast to slow, and it became slower and slower, and it became extremely slow when it reached 12 meters in front of him. Victor knew that it wasn't that the arrows were slowing down, but that his brain was processing information faster, giving him the illusion of time standstill.

The speed of the brain does not mean that the body reacts faster, and even if the average person can see the arrow that is slowed down, the stiff and slow movement cannot avoid the arrow.

Victor's speed was far beyond that of ordinary people, and in this almost stagnant illusion, his body was surrounded by a breeze, making his movements swift and effortless, and Victor raised his sword and slashed at the feathered arrows.

In Victor's perception, his movements were equally slow, but in the eyes of others, the lord was like an ethereal ghost, and wherever he passed, those stray arrows that were difficult to see with the naked eye broke into two and fell to the ground, and when the last feathered arrow was cut down by Victor, the target in the field was broken from the smooth incision. People don't even know when Victor cut off the eight targets.

"Victor, you're amazing!"

Among the stunned crowd, Lilia was the first to react, and she ran to Victor's side with a smile, looking up and down to see if Victor had been shot.

"Barrett, it looks like you won't get your work this time." Victor took off his blindfold, put his arms around Lilia's thin waist, and smiled at Barrett.

In order to verify the results of his cultivation during this time, Victor specially arranged this test, he asked Barriet to take 15 archers, each of whom shot 5 arrows smeared with black powder, and if they shot once, they would be rewarded with 100 points each, and the result was obvious, everyone's arrows were cut off by him.

"My lord, you are really powerful, we are convinced. ”

Barrett grinned, there was nothing more pleasing to the old mercenaries than the appearance of a powerful leader in the collective. The guards also looked at their lord with awe.

Victor was a little fluttery. Not only did he cut 75 arrows in 40 seconds, but he also silently sliced through 8 hard iron oak targets, shocking everyone.

The turmoil of sugar and coffee made Victor realize that he had been too impatient for a while, and he always wanted to produce alchemy humans quickly, so he took out two hole cards without investigating clearly, and ended up with a gray nose. In fact, since he realized that it was not Sylvia who was calculating herself, Victor felt a little relieved inexplicably. But thinking that Sylvia had expected this a long time ago, she didn't remind herself, which made Victor angry again.

"Maybe Sylvia just has to teach herself a lesson to understand that potential equals strength, and I need to keep my head up now, not my teeth and claws. ”

Victor took Sylvia as one of his own for no reason, but the Countess just wanted to see the embarrassed appearance of the little lover and take pleasure in it. The pride in Victor's bones always made her both curious and resentful, you are a little nobleman who has nothing and actually refuses to be my vassal, what do you have to say? Of course, Sylvia will not know that this is the self-confidence of the peak human, let alone the great noble, even the Lord of Ten Thousand Times Radiance cannot tame modern humans, and will only think about how to slice him into pieces.

In any case, this setback caused Victor to change his mindset, and he began to relax, leaving the tedious affairs of the territory to Lilia, and began to pick up the gaps from the perspective of a bystander, and spent more time cultivating the secret form.

After a period of concentrated cultivation, Victor's physical attributes have exceeded 9 points, and the duration of the Apocalypse has also been extended to 50 seconds, and because of the cultivation of the Barberry Secret Form, Victor's power output efficiency has increased by 40%, which is also the reason why he can easily cut off the iron oak target.

"Nelson, how far do you think I am from the Knights?" asked Victor triumphantly to his number one general.

Nelson frowned, but still said honestly: "My lord, you can easily defeat an ordinary trainee knight, but against a knight, you have no chance of winning. ”

"Why?" asked Victor, somewhat unconvinced, as he had a sense of control in his apocalypse state, that he could see the enemy's weaknesses and that no one could keep up with his speed.

"Your strength is too weak, even if the knight doesn't wear armor, you can't kill them, once the knight runs his fighting spirit, his body is as tough as copper, even if you stab them in the eye, the knight can seize this gap of obstruction and give you a fatal blow. ”

"Moreover, the knight's physical strength is very terrifying, they don't give you a chance to stab the vital point, as long as you drag it until you are exhausted, you can't run! So, my lord, don't melee with the knight!" Nelson admonished earnestly.

Nelson's solemn attitude made Victor's heart sink, and he knew that what Nelson said was right.

Victor can detect the elemental concentration of living beings, and the higher the elemental concentration, the higher the attribute value. The earth element makes up the physical body of a living being, so the physical attribute does not simply represent strength, but also includes a strong body and hard bones. For example, the giant rhinoceros bred by Victor far outweighs Nelson in overall strength, but it has a body size of only 13 points, and a strong soldier can kill it with a sharp spear, because its body cannot withstand the stabbing of a spear. But if the concentration of the earth element exceeds 20 points, it is completely different.

Victor witnessed the battle between Bruce and the old ogre, and Bruce burst out with all his strength, reaching 27 points of physique, holding a pure gold halberd, and failing to cut off the old ogre's arm. Although the old ogre has unloading movements, it is enough to show that its body and bones are tough beyond imagination.

Subsequently, Victor also deeply realized this. In Infernal Conditions, Victor fires a crossbow bolt as powerful as a crossbow, blinding the old ogre in one eye, but failing to penetrate its brain, and in close combat, Victor's short sword can't even stab its body. If it weren't for Nicole's outburst, Victor would have been smashed into pulp as soon as the apocalypse ended.

An aging ogre can fight the Bronze Horseman, but what about the old ogres? and the ogres are all in groups. What about driving the hordes of ogres and gnolls out of the forest here? Now that the forest people have moved away, will those powerful ogres migrate here? Thinking of these questions, Victor's face is a little ugly.

Seeing that Victor was a little unhappy, Nelson comforted: "My lord, you are an extraordinary marksman, and if you use a military heavy crossbow, it is enough to threaten the knights. ”

Victor smiled bitterly at Nelson's misunderstanding, and he asked Nelson, "Although the hill camp is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it has a major flaw, that is, there is no way out! Do you have any suggestions?"

The lord's leaping mind made Nelson scratch his head a little, but he replied anyway: "My lord, we can install a few winches on the steep side, and if necessary, we can lower the ropes and let everyone use the ropes to go down to the ground." ”

"Then install it as soon as possible. ”

Victor didn't explain more, and it was not appropriate for more people to know about the ogre's concerns, so as not to cause unnecessary panic, but the necessary precautions still had to be done. Victor secretly decided to produce more alchemy crows to monitor the area on the edge of the territory, especially the mountains on the west side of the territory and the entrance to the swamp, if there was really an ogre race, it was probably in the swamp. Anyway, alchemy crows are cheap. At the same time, some materials can be purchased to allow Busso to make sharper heavy and repeater crossbows.

One of the leaders broke into the training ground, but was stopped by the guards, and he had to shout excitedly, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, we succeeded! We made that cream according to your method!"

Victor is overjoyed, with cream, the promotion of cane sugar can no longer be stopped!
