Chapter VII Recommendations
Su Yuan originally thought that he would be able to create other new breathing methods by modifying the Rock Breath.
It turned out to be a failure.
He overestimated his talent and underestimated the difficulty of the breathing method.
Su Yuan was not able to convert the Breath of Rock into other breaths, but only studied a few moves of the Breath of Rock.
This was only known after he asked Numasaburo about it.
With his left arm bandaged around his neck and his right hand holding the Hinawa sword, Numasaburo stood in the small courtyard and demonstrated to Su Yuan the full version of the moves he had studied.
"For example, this one is actually [Rock Breath, Type II, Rock Flow Burst]."
Numasaburo took a deep breath, and his originally thin chest swelled a little.
He slammed his right foot on the ground, using his legs as springs, and with this recoil force, the whole person rushed forward as quickly as a bullet from a slingshot.
The Hinawa Knife in Numasaburo's right hand slashed down fiercely, exuding a furious aura that seemed to be split in two in front of him with an iron armor, and with a single click, the five bamboos in front of him were split into two pieces.
"Whew~"
After the demonstration, he let out a long breath in his chest and said to Su Yuan.
"Su Jun, the other breathing method you just used seems to be [Rock Breath, Wanton Type, Triple Mountain]. It's a powerful move that can slash three times in a row with great force in a very short period of time, but I couldn't learn it. ”
He smiled wryly.
"I don't have enough talent, there are five moves in Rock Breath, and I've only learned three of them."
With Numasaburo's demonstration, new information began to appear on Su Yuan's panel.
Name: Su Yuan
Race: Human
Class: Wind Warrior (Level 2)
Talents: Affinity of Medium Wind
Skills: Steel Slash Flash Level 2 (236/500), Forward Slash Level 2 (175/500), Rock Breath Remnant Level 1 (2/100).
Experience Points: 202/500
Overall Rating: E-, a freshly baked rookie swordsman.
Looking at the new skill of Rock Breath that appeared on the panel, Su Yuan said secretly.
"So I've learned the breath of rock? In the past few days, I've only studied breathing methods, and I don't have specific moves, so the previous Iwa breath is actually incomplete? ”
"According to Numasaburo, my current Iwa no Breath is actually incomplete, and there are still 3 moves that I haven't learned, so I have the word "remnant". ”
After questioning Numasaburo, Numasaburo taught Su Yuan two other Iwano Breath moves that he could use.
For example, [Breath of Rock, Ichi-no-type, Serpentine]!
The user of the Iwano Breathing Method also knows that he has more than brute strength and is not flexible enough.
This move is actually to use your legs to constantly step on the ground, using violence to change the direction of the attack in a zigzag pattern, and the landing point formed on the last road is like a snake circling forward, replacing flexibility with explosive power.
It can be called the evolutionary form of the pig by leaps and bounds.
There is also [Breath of the Rock, Type Three, Skin of the Rock Body]!
It is a self-centered move that constantly wields the blade to defend against enemy attacks, and it is rumored that a swordsman used this move to block hundreds of arrows fired by enemies a hundred years ago.
But Numasaburo didn't use it well, in Su Yuan's opinion, it was full of loopholes, leaking everywhere, no wonder it would be broken by evil ghosts.
In addition, Rock Breath also has a special move, called [Rock Breath, Wood Type, Walun Punishment Department].
This is a top-down simulated meteorite attack that jumps high from the ground and matches its own body weight. The huge kinetic energy can easily shatter the earth, and it is also the most difficult trick to master in the breath of rock.
After demonstrating all the Iwan-no-Breath moves he knew, Numasaburo gave Su Yuan a big smile.
"Su Jun, I have good news for you. I recommended you to my lord, and my lord agreed. You can go to Momijiyama in Aomori to learn the breath of the wind from a former first-class swordsman named Kiyomasa Takihara. The breathing method you want to learn the most is the breathing of the wind, right? ”
Su Yuan was stunned for a moment, and nodded lightly at Numasaburo.
"Thank you. It's really hard work. ”
"No thanks, we're friends! Not to mention that you saved my life! ”
Numasaburo put the Hinawa knife in his hand back into the sheath with difficulty, and smiled heartily at Su Yuan.
"With your ability, you will definitely be able to become a pillar soon, and you will have to pull me when the time comes!"
……
Early the next morning, Numasaburo took out some money and handed it to Su Yuan.
"There is a train right there in Yubari City, so you can sit all the way to Aomori City and get off at it, and then go to Momijiyama. Aomori City also has helpers from our Demon Slayer Team, and they will guide you to where Master Kiyomasa Takikwara is. ”
The helpers in Yubari City also prepared some dry food for Su Yuan.
Numasaburo put Su Yuan on the train all the way and said goodbye to him on the train platform.
Watching the figure of Numasaburo, who had been waving his arms at him at the station, slowly disappear, at this moment, Su Yuan's sense of the ghost killing team was really good.
"Was the Ghost Slayer such a welcoming organization?"
After Su Yuan expressed his willingness to join the Ghost Slayer Team, Numa Saburo introduced Su Yuan.
Ordinary people who want to join the Ghost Slayer Team are not only the former swordsmen who will be trained in the breathing method, and the food and lodging will be free during the period, and they will also have a salary after becoming a swordsman of the Ghost Slayer Team.
Even the lowest-level Aoi-level Demon Slayer swordsman has a salary that exceeds that of ordinary people in this era, and the salary is even higher after each level.
It's a graduation package assignment!
After all, slaying ghosts is a life-threatening thing, and a large number of ghost slayer swordsmen die every year, and there is no reason to make heroes shed blood and tears.
Ordinary Demon Slayer swordsmen are lowered from the first rank to the Aoi rank, and they are divided into ten levels in total.
The swordsman of the Demon Slayer Team who passed the assessment is the lowest-level Aoi-level swordsman, and it is also the level that Numasaburo is currently in.
An Aoi-level swordsman is promoted to Ren level after killing 1 ghost, and killing 2 more ghosts is Xin level, and so on.
An Aoi-rank swordsman will become a first-class swordsman after killing 45 ghosts, which is also the top of ordinary swordsmen.
But before that, many swordsmen would be unlucky enough to bump into the Twelve Ghost Moons during the mission and be killed, and there were very few who could become Grade A swordsmen.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, a B-level swordsman is qualified to be accepted as a stepson by Zhu.
In addition, after killing 50 ghosts, or killing 1 twelve ghost moons, the swordsman will be able to become a pillar.
The use of the Wind Breath Method is called the Wind Pillar, and the use of the Rock Breathing Method is called the Rock Pillar.
If there are two swordsmen who use the same breathing technique, called a pillar, the latter can take his own name.
Riding on the booming and noisy train of this era, Su Yuan came all the way from Yubari City to Aomori City.
He searched for most of the day in Aomori City to find the location of the Ghost Slayer Helper, and after he came forward to explain the reason, the other party left him at home for one night.
The next day, led by a helper's family, Su Yuan went out of the city with him and headed for Hongye Mountain.
