After a brief moment of consternation, Leo recovered, and secretly sighed that he was rare and strange.

Swordsmanship, and even advanced swordsmanship, in the final analysis, is to borrow the external form of swordsmanship to express the inner artistic conception and spiritual power.

Since the sword can do it, there is no reason why other weapons can't do it.

If the sword master has sword intent, then there must also be sword intent, gun intent, arrow intent, etc.

This is just that before that, I had the most contact with swordsmen, so I had such a wrong perception.

Of course, all this also has a lot to do with the fact that other weapons are relatively unpopular in the Donghuang Alliance.

Without absorbing the soul ashes in the first place, this place is not too safe after all, and Leo is ready to wait until he will go to a safe place and absorb it again.

He took the Soul Ash in his left hand and reached out his right hand to touch the rusty black-brown metal longbow.

——

【Yoel Longbow】& amp; amp; amp; 【Standard Wooden Arrow】(Damaged)

[The specially tuned longbow with amazing stability is an excellent longbow that the longbow knights of Yor City feared foreign enemies. The erosion of time, the lack of maintenance for a long time, has caused the longbow to wear and tear greatly, and now it is not even as good as an ordinary longbow. In the last moments, the longbow knights of the city of Joel remained at their posts and never left without trespassing. 】

[Arrow language: absolute precision, absolute elegance. 】

——

"Joel's Longbow ......"

Picking up his longbow and arrows, Leo looked around and found himself in a relatively secluded corner of the side blocked by a raised wall.

Perception perception of surrounding hostility + telescope detection, after confirming that there is no danger, Leo took out the soul ash and put it on his eyebrows.

A warm current flowed from the soul ashes into the body.

After a while, Leo opened his eyes and looked at the panel of characters in front of him.

Archery (Starter 12/100) has become Joel's Archery (86/100).

[Archery] has not disappeared, and the corresponding skills have been integrated into [Yoel's Archery].

At the same time, Leo also had a special technique called "Eagle Eyes" in his mind.

This is something similar to sword skills, which can be called archery.

Get up and hold Joel's longbow in your left hand.

As soon as he got his hands on it, Leo sensed that something was wrong.

"Introductory 86/100", close to mastering the [Yoel Archery], allows him to clearly perceive the damage of the longbow in his hand at this moment.

Ageing and rusting of the bowstring leads to attenuation of the maximum tensile force of the bow body......

All in all, it's a near-scrapped longbow.

Drawing the bow and opening the strings, Leo tentatively shot an arrow with Joel's longbow.

With a "Hugh", the wooden arrow flew out.

Leo squinted as the wooden arrow he shot deviated from the target he was aiming at at a distance of 100 meters at an alarming angle.

Shoot the bow again, shoot the arrow, and this time, Leo directly opened the newly acquired archery skill - Eagle Eye.

In an instant, the world in front of me changed dramatically.

Everything around him became a lake, and only the focus of his eyes, the tattered pennant on the top floor of the tower a hundred meters away, became extremely clear.

In the vision of the Eagle Eye, it will not be affected by the gray fog within 100 meters, but a hundred meters away, as the concentration of the gray fog deepens, it will begin to become a blurred line of sight, which will greatly affect the hit rate of the wooden arrow.

Leo's fingers pinching the tail of the arrow did not shake at all, and it was unusually smooth.

The next moment, the wooden arrow shot out quickly and nailed it to the flagpole a hundred meters away.

Nodding with satisfaction, he sighed at the improvement of his archery skills now, and then, Leo looked down at the longbow of Yoel in his hand, a little speechless.

This thing is too rubbish, and the accuracy is extremely poor, and if it weren't for the blessing of the Eagle Eye, Leo was very suspicious that he would not have hit the target at all.

It's just that the longbow knights of Joel City have eagle eyes, and if they change to a person or a monster, they can't hit at all.

The value of this thing, which is the introduction of its character panel, provides some information.

Leo sighed, put the longbow and wooden quiver in place, and picked up his compound longbow and steel arrows.

After a short period of recuperation, he began his hunt to hunt the Longbow Knights of the city of Jor.

The area at the top of the tower in the southern part of the city of Yor is much less dangerous than the ground, and so far, Leo has only found one kind of monster: the longbow knight of the city.

This made his hunting journey a lot easier.

The specific process is as follows: first use the telescope to find the target, then close the distance and shoot it.

Thanks to the blessing of the Eagle Eye of [Yoel Archery], Leo's archery skills have made a great breakthrough, and his physical fitness is stronger than that of the Longbow Knight of Yoel City, so when encountered, he can bend his bow and shoot arrows faster, and shoot arrows in advance.

Steel arrows made of special steel, composite longbows made of modern aerofluid mechanics, have stronger range, arrow speed, and destructive power than Jör's longbow.

An hour later, Leo crouched in the shadow of the wall at the top of a tower, his eyes looking ahead, his eyes full of solemnity.

At this moment, he is on the edge of the southern city of Jor, and further on, there are other areas.

As for why Leo knew this?

Because in front of it, a 100-meter-high wall lies here.

Underneath the high wall, a huge gate tens of meters long opens completely inward, allowing for free access...... That's weird!

In the field of vision of the telescope, in front of the open city gate, a burly figure in silver full-body armor half-knelt here, its head lowered was covered by a silver helmet, and its right hand held a pure black giant sword that was stuck into the ground.

This equipment, this physique, a proper boss!

Even from a considerable distance, looking directly at the half-kneeling giant sword armored swordsman with a telescope, Leo felt like he was breathless.

This is a warning that comes from the body's instincts.

Now he is by no means the opponent of this giant sword armored swordsman!

Entering through the gate is not possible, and climbing over the city wall is even more impossible.

It's not that Leo can't climb up, with his current physical fitness, as long as there is a raised point, the hundred-meter-high wall is not a problem at all.

Mainly on top of the high walls, every two hundred meters, there is an arrow tower.

Through the binoculars, Leo could see a figure holding a giant black bow standing on top of each arrow tower.

The so-called giant bow is not an exaggeration, but a real giant bow, and the bow in the hands of these figures has reached an astonishing two meters, which is longer than the height of a normal person.

Such a huge bow, not to mention the power, just pulling the bowstring requires terrifying power.

Leo didn't think that a guy who could hold such a huge black bow would not be able to pull the bow.

"Two hundred meters ......"

Leo was silent and looked at the [Current Skill] column on the character panel in front of him.

After an hour of hunting, he killed a total of 4 Yoel Longbow Knights, pushing [Yoel's Archery] to the level of "mastering 226/300" in one fell swoop!

The mastery-level [Yoel Archery] did not bring new archery skills, but continued to dig deeper into the power of the Eagle Eye, increasing its absolute vision locking distance from the original 100 meters to 150 meters.

The distance between the towers on the high wall is a very delicate distance.

Leo speculated that the attack range of these figures holding black giant bows was at least two hundred meters!

In other words, their level of archery is at least "proficient"!

Regardless of the fact that Leo's archery skills are not up to this level now, even if they do, the compound longbow in his hand will not be able to maintain enough power to shoot arrows at a distance of two hundred meters.

This compound longbow was designed and built without considering the high power of shooting at such a distance.

"Hoo ......"

Leo took a breath and took a deep look at the figure of the great sword and armor in front of the high-walled city gate and the figure of the black giant bow on the arrow tower, and then turned to leave.

He still needs to get stronger to have access to other urban districts.

Nancheng District is not small, but it is not big.

After spending about 3 hours moving around the top floor of the tower in the southern city, Leo finally cleared all the longbow knights he found.

There were far fewer than expected, and the number of Yoel Longbow Knights in the entire southern city of Nancheng, plus the 5 he had killed before, was only 20 in total.

It seems that even in Yoel City, ranged units such as Yoel Longbow Knights are very rare.

Killing a total of 20 Knights of the Longbow of Joel brought Leo a great reward.

——

[Soul Fire Color: Dark Gray]

[Soul Flame Brightness: 3.17→3.50]

[Current Status: Healthy, Distorted (Hyperdyed 2% → 12%)]

[Acquired Skills: Joel Archery (Mastery 376/500), Storm Sword Technique (Mastery 301/500), Thousand Flames Sword Technique (Mastery 155/300), Royal Sword Technique (Mastery 130/300)]

——

First of all, the biggest improvement is [Yoel's Archery], which breaks through to the "mastery level" in one fell swoop, and its proficiency ranks the highest among all skills.

Secondly, it is the [Soul Fire Brightness], from 3.17 to 3.50, the increase of 0.33 has made Leo's physical fitness increase nearly thirty percent!

When the [Soul Fire Brightness] is above 3.0, as the value increases, the amount of souls that need to be consumed to continue to improve becomes more and more large, but in contrast, the degree of improvement is also extremely amazing.

The improvement in strength certainly made Leo feel happy, but looking at the "Distortion (12% Deep Dyeing)" in the [Current Status] column, his excitement slowly weakened.

The deepening of the distortion did not have an effect on him.

At this moment, Leo could sense that his mind was a little restless, and he had a feeling of wanting to tear apart everything in front of him.

If it weren't for the two mastery-level skills, the psychic power of [Yoel Swordsmanship] and [Storm Swordsmanship], he would probably get lost in such impulses, and eventually become a slave to bloodthirsty desires, and degenerate into a true aberrant monster.

"It seems that you can't kill monsters to improve the brightness of your soul fire, and your skills, especially your swordsmanship skills, must keep up."

Leo thought thoughtfully.

Although the [Yoel Archery Technique] is the last, in fact, the spiritual power it represents is not strong, far less than the [Storm Sword Technique] of the same level, and it is only comparable to the level of several swordsmanship at the "mastery level".

This is not because archery is inferior to swordsmanship, but because the fields in which the two specialize are different.

The increase in the level of [Yoel's Archery] greatly increased the hit rate of Leo's archery. The second depth development of the Eagle Eye has made the visual locking distance reach an astonishing 200 meters, such a terrifying vision, combined with the telescope, makes Leo's long-range observation ability extremely amazing.

If the potential of each level increase is recorded as 10 points, then the distribution ratio of [Yoel's Archery] is +4 damage, +5 vision, and +1 mind. The distribution ratio of advanced swordsmanship is +5 damage and +5 heart.

It's not about which is better or worse, it's just that the choices are different.

But for Leo, advanced swordsmanship with a higher proportion of psychic bonuses is undoubtedly the best solution.

Standing at the top of the tower, beside him a tattered pennant fluttering in the wind, Leo condescendingly looked down on the southern district, his eyes flashing with a deep light.

"It's not enough...... Not enough...... You need to be stronger to be qualified to try and break through the wall......"

After a brief pause, Leo climbed down the walls of the tower, his body more agile than the most agile ape, and easily reached the balcony not far from the ground from the tower tens of meters high.

The remote units in the top area of the tower have basically been cleared, and even if there are a few hidden ones that are not discovered by him, it will not hurt.

Next, what he has to do is kill the knights of Jör!

……

The light above the sky gradually faded, and the gray fog became deeper and deeper imperceptibly.

In the southern part of the city, on the empty streets, candlesticks on both sides of the road dispel the misty gray fog and bring a shallow light.

In the dead silence of the city road, a shallow footstep came from the gray mist in the distance.

As the distance approached, the appearance of the figure became clearer and clearer.

It was a knight of Joel City in armor with a sword in his right hand and a deformed dog in his left hand.

It walked slowly and steadily through the empty streets, its scarlet eyes under its helmet scanning its surroundings.

Even if it fell into the abyss, the mission before its death still allowed it to fulfill its duties, and I don't know how many years have passed, and there is still no slackness.

Just as it was passing around the corner of a street, suddenly.

"Hugh"!

A terrible whine in the air was heard, and the knight of Yor raised his sword in his right hand and held it in front of him.

Its reaction was not unpleasant, but the problem was that it was not the target of this attack.

"Poof!"

With the sound of gold and iron piercing into the flesh, the head of the deformed big dog held by the knight of Yor City in his left hand was pierced directly by an arrow.

Before he even howled, the deformed dog was dead.

The sudden attack put the knight of Yor City on alert, and he stopped in place for a long time to observe, but never found any trace of the enemy, and finally had to let down his vigilance and began to patrol alone.

The aberration still made it lose its consciousness after all, and if it were a normal person, it would never do this at this moment.

The knight of the city of Jörr walked forward about thirty meters away, and when he passed the entrance of an alley between the towers, a figure descended from the sky, flashing with a silver-white sword, and stabbed deep into the heart of the back of the unsuspecting knight of the city of Jor.

The armor that seemed to be sturdy was useless in front of this sword.

The vital point was attacked, which made the knight of Yor City stiffen, and before he could recover to fight back, the figure behind it directly pulled out the long sword, and with a twist of his wrist, he slashed through a semicircle, and with a "Kacha" sound, the head of the knight of Joel City was cut off.

Looking at the dead knight of Yor City in front of him, Leo licked the corners of his mouth, and the surging red light in his eyes flashed.
