Chapter 158: A Stray Bullet from History

He followed Siebert into the training room.

Chen Lun felt his eyes light up.

As Siebert said, this is the club's only open-air training room, and it's quite spacious inside. Looking up, thick glass replaces the ceiling and is set quite high.

Sunlight shines down from the sky, shining through the glass.

At this time, there were seven or eight people in the training room, each doing their own training, and several of them were the teachers of the martial arts course, whispering guidance on the side.

"Mr. Wood, this is Mr. Jack, who has just joined the club, and he is also interested in swordsmanship."

Siebert said to a middle-aged, short-haired man.

Woo——!

The short-haired man waved his two-handed sword in his hand, whirring, and after a few rounds of slashing, he held the heavy blade of the sword with his outer elbow and stopped.

Boom!

Wood grabbed the blade of the sword with his hand, holding it upright, leaning against himself. Because he was wearing leather gloves, this kind of unedged two-handed sword couldn't hurt his fingers.

"Welcome."

He said nonchalantly.

"Hey, Mr. Jack, if you're going to learn swordsmanship, I recommend Mr. Wood to you...... He graduated from the Royal Academy of Trisur, where he studied swordsmanship and once won the Amber City Gold Medal in Swordsmanship. ”

Siebert introduced Chen Lun.

"That's pretty impressive."

Chen Lun said with a smile.

"I'll have a fight with Mr. Wood first, Mr. Jack, how about you take a good look on the sidelines?"

Siebert proposed.

Chen Lun nodded.

"I'm looking forward to seeing what you do, Mr. Siebert."

"Good!"

Siebert drank some wine, his cheeks flushed, and he looked a little excited.

He took his long sword, put on his helmet and armor, and said to his sword teacher, Wood:

"Mr. Wood, let's get started."

"Be careful, Mr. Siebert."

Wood was bold and didn't do anything to protect himself.

With a kick from his toes, and with a bang, the two-handed sword was raised from the ground, and he held it by his arm, like a spear facing Siebert.

Whining!

Siebert stepped forward, his sword stabbing out.

But in the next second, it was parried by Wood's two-handed sword, and then there was a deviation, and with a bang, sparks overflowed.

Wood grabbed the blade of his two-handed sword with his hand, and struck Siebert with the hilt of his sword upside down, like a war hammer.

This surprised Siebert a little, and he didn't know what to do in a panic, and finally just raised his sword with both hands to block.

Smack!

Siebert's hands were numb, and he could barely hold his sword.

Wood took a step forward, then rushed into Siebert's body within a meter of him, and slammed his two-handed sword on his shoulder.

"Whew...... Aha, I lost. ”

Siebert frankly conceded defeat and smiled bitterly.

"It seems that the gap between me and Mr. Wood is still so big, and I lost the tricks I just learned before I could use them."

"Mr. Siebert's physical fitness is not as good as mine, and his skills are still very rusty, so it is normal to lose...... You still need to keep up the good work. ”

Wood slowly withdrew his two-handed sword and said.

Chen Lun nodded secretly, this Wood's skills are very skilled, and he does have enough attainments in swordsmanship.

In fact, this two-handed sword is a battlefield weapon, which is used to charge and break through, and is not suitable for heads-up in this kind of field. So it can also be seen from this aspect that Wood's strength is indeed very strong.

Unfortunately, he was just a mortal.

No matter how good the swordsmanship is, there is not much difference between him and others in the face of the transcendent.

"Mr. Jack, would you like to play too?"

Siebert took off his protective helmet and handed over his sword with a smile.

He thought for a moment, and then said:

"If you think Mr. Wood is too strong, you can also play a game with me, there are various types of weapons on the shelves over there, you can choose at will."

Chen Lun shook his head.

"No, Mr. Siebert, I don't really like this kind of fighting."

"It's just a casual discussion, there is protective gear here, it won't hurt you...... And don't you come to the club to experience the 'fight to the death' for yourself? ”

Siebert looked puzzled.

"Sir, with me here, you can rest assured that no one will be hurt by this."

Wood added on the sidelines, his tone steady and reassuring.

Chen Lun shook his head again and declined with a smile on his face.

"No, I'm just here to have a look."

"Well, Mr. Jack...... But it's a shame. ”

Siebert shrugged and withdrew his sword with a look of regret.

Wood on the side was slightly stunned, and then shook his head.

He felt that this black-haired young man was reluctant to fight in person because he was too cautious, even to the point of timidity, and he couldn't help but feel some contempt for him in his heart.

As a man, how can you be so cowardly.

Boom!!

Suddenly, a gunshot rang out in everyone's ears.

They all turned their heads to look, only to see a middle-aged man with long yellow-brown hair, holding a musket in his hand and aiming it at a target in front of him.

Smoke billowed from the muzzle of the gun.

"Hahaha......! Joyfully! ”

The long-haired man slowly reloaded the musket in his hand and laughed loudly.

Beside him stood an emaciated man, like a teacher like Wood.

"It's the year 4418 of the solar calendar now, it's the era of muskets, what's the use of training these fights and swordsmanship?!"

The long-haired man said loudly.

"These are old techniques that should be eliminated, backward combat skills, and the new era should be ruled by muskets!"

Wood frowned, and walked towards him with his two-handed sword.

"Hey! Are you deliberately stirring up trouble?! Mr? ”

He shouted in a deep voice.

A figure stood in his way, the emaciated man.

"Wood, this is my student and my guest...... What do you want to do? ”

Said the emaciated man.

With a cold face, Wood asked:

"Students? Marlowe, your course is to teach people to shoot guns? How did I not know...... Are you sure you work at 'Foil Fighting Club'? ”

"Oh, I'm just teaching Mr. Ford how to fight and dodge, and the club doesn't have a rule that you can't practice guns here......"

The emaciated man named Marlowe shrugged.

"Hey, I know him, Ford...... He's the manager of the new 'Fire Shooting Club' in the next block! ”

Siebert looked at the long-haired man, always feeling familiar, and suddenly he thought of something and spoke.

Hearing his words, everyone's eyes on Ford changed.

"Looks like you're here on purpose, Mr. Ford?"

Wood said coldly.

"Oh, don't get me wrong...... I'm just stating a fact. ”

Ford stroked his long yellow-brown hair and patted the musket in his hand.

"Why don't we have a fight? See who the winner ......?

I happen to be here too, and I would like to recommend the 'Fire Shooting Club'! There are various models of muskets there, and veterans who have been on the battlefield as instructors! ”

"Bastard!"

Wood scolded.

This kind of public business grabbing behavior is extremely disgusting. He couldn't help it, and pressed a hand on the shoulder of Marlowe, who was also a course teacher.

"Marlowe, Mr. Charles has lent a helping hand to you and me when we are down, and you repay him like this?"

Wood asked in a low voice.

Marlowe's face changed slightly, but quickly turned cold again.

"Nobody thinks they're making more money, Wood...... You won't understand. ”

"You ...... guy"

Wood glared at him.

"Good! I promise your invitation to fight! ”

He suddenly turned his head and shouted at Ford, the long-haired man.

Ford sneered, twirled the musket in his hand twice, and pointed at Wood.

"Admire your courage! But I don't want to go to jail for murder......"

He pulled out a piece of paper.

"I've signed this waiver agreement, so if you have the guts, sign it too."

Wood's eyes narrowed slightly.

The other party did this part, obviously calculated in advance. Deliberately provoked, and then took people under the knife, and made a name for himself in that shooting club.

But Wood didn't budge.

That's his character, he doesn't back down. If it weren't for his personality, he wouldn't have been kicked out of the army or even ended up on the streets.

Wood strode forward, took the agreement with a blank face, and signed his name on it.

"Good! In that case, let's get started! ”

Ford folded the agreement, tucked it into his arms, and said loudly.

The two stood seven or eight meters away, according to the rules of the fighting ring. If the distance is further separated, it will be an irreparable disadvantage for Wood.

Everyone focused their attention on the two of them, and it seemed that because they were about to see blood, they were all excited and excited.

A few people went out at some point to spread the news, and more and more people rushed to this side, squeezing into the open-air training room.

Chen Lun stood beside Siebert, watching from the outside of the circle.

'You can say you can be a fool, or you can say you are a brave man......

Here's what he had to say about Wood.

Wood had already swapped out the two-handed sword in his hand for a longsword and was ready to go all out.

A chaotic mist flashed in Chen Lun's eyes.

After [divination], coupled with his own predictions, he has roughly seen the outcome of the battle - the man named Ford will be beheaded with a sword, but in the end Wood will also die of lead poisoning.

Smack!

The battle has begun!

The crowd exclaimed, and Wood rushed first, his speed like a sturdy cheetah. In doing so, he holds the sword in both hands and holds it high in front of his eyes.

Boom!!

A gunshot rang out!

Right at this moment.

As if he felt that his mind had been enlightened, as if everything was predestined, he raised his sword and slashed forward.

Qiang ——!!

There was a crisp sound, sparks burst out, and the shot lead bullet was broken in two by his sword.

The stray bullet made a sound of breaking through the air and shot straight towards Chen Lun's eyebrows!

'No, that's not the result of my divination......! ’

A thought popped up in Chen Lun's heart.

Sou!

Chen Lun raised his silver cane and waved it lightly.

Table tennis!

The cane swept through a semicircle, knocking half of the buckshot into the air with unmistakable precision, and then lowered it as if nothing had happened.

Everything happens between the lights and the fire.

Except for Siebert, who was standing next to him, no one noticed anything out of the ordinary.

"Jay...... Mr. Jack?! ”

Siebert's eyes widened.
