Chapter 192: Master
Saying goodbye to his companions, Gordon was a little depressed, and the pork chops were even more so, and his little ears were drooping.
But when they returned to the studio used as a training ground, the two of them immediately cheered up again.
Parting is the norm for hunters, and loss, sentimentality, is the most useless emotion, according to some hardcore hunters – it only dulls the blade.
"Looks like there's no need to give you extra time to adjust your emotions." The master craftsman leaned on crutches and said with a smile.
Gordon raised his training greatsword in one breath, "No, I'm at my best right now!" ”
"It's also a meow under it!"
"Well, then today, I will teach you the mystery of the true accumulation of strength." Shi Jiang's face gradually became serious and serious, "I hope you can master it smoothly." ”
After that, the master didn't say anything more, but picked up the umbrella and began the demonstration.
He came to the target and started with a gesture of strength.
However, as soon as the charge began, he interrupted the charge with a shoulder action similar to Tie Shan's leaning, and then directly entered the charge stance of the strong charge slash.
Gordon's eyes widened.
Interrupting the charge slash can also directly enter the strong charge stage?
This was obviously some kind of special skill, and since the master was willing to demonstrate it to himself, he would definitely teach himself, which made Gordon even more excited and serious.
The master craftsman's demonstration continues.
The master craftsman under the strong charging posture repeats the old skills, and interrupts the charging action with his shoulders again.
Then he waved the umbrella over his head for half a circle, and made a charging action that was similar to an ordinary charging slash, but with a larger range of movement and more tension.
"Drink."
With a low cry from the master craftsman, the umbrella was split.
The blow was much lighter than Gordon had expected, and instead of slashing at the target, it struck the ground in front of it.
Just when he thought that the master craftsman's physical strength was exhausted, resulting in a lack of power, the master craftsman actually used the umbrella on the ground as a support point, turned over and jumped, used his body as a lever to pry the "big sword", and split the umbrella forward the moment his feet landed.
"Smack!"
The umbrella, which had performed well in the previous day's training, shattered completely under this blow, but at the same time, it also left a white mark on the stake target wrapped in monster leather.
It's just an ordinary bamboo umbrella.
"Whew, whew, ahem, ahem" The master took a few breaths and coughed for a while before he straightened up with Gordon's support.
"This is the mystery of the big sword, it is really charged and slashed, it not only superimposes the power of the strong charged slash, condenses the strength of the muscles of the user's whole body, and even cleverly borrows the weight of the user.
It's incredibly powerful, and when used at the right time, it can be a game-winning blow. ”
Gordon kept recalling the details of the previous master's movements in his mind, and asked, "Master, I noticed that there were two swords in total.
The power of the first sword is relatively average, is that sword purely for the purpose of supporting the action of the second one, or does it have any special role? ”
The master craftsman, who gradually breathed his breath, replied with a smile: "Of course, it's not just support, the first sword is very important, if it successfully hits the monster, it can greatly increase the damage of the second sword." ”
Gordon said thoughtfully, "Is it because the first sword broke through the monster's carapace?" ”
Master Craftsman smiled and nodded, "That's pretty much it. ”
"One more question, Master, what was the action you interrupted earlier?"
"Hahaha, don't worry, that's also one of the skills that a high-level greatsword master must master, aiming to give up the damage of the charged slash and the strong charged slash, in exchange for time, and slash the amazingly powerful true charged slash faster.
In addition, there are some small tricks that I will also teach to you, first practice the real charge slash, and when you master the real charge slash, these are not difficult. ”
"Yes!"
Gordon originally thought that the practice of following the master would only take three or four days at most, just like when Feng Ying learned the shield axe.
But I didn't expect the master to teach very carefully.
From the basic sword moves, the charging stance, to the strong charging slash, the strong sweeping slash and the flying body horizontal slash, to the real charging slash and the iron mountain that interrupts the charging, as well as all kinds of fragmentary experience and skills, the master craftsman taught him without reservation, and supervised him to practice and consolidate step by step.
The whole process lasted for nearly half a month.
During this time, not only Gordon has improved by leaps and bounds, but even the pork chops have received a lot of guidance.
For example, how to mix gunpowder suitable for different situations, the structure and design of explosives, the coordination of explosives and traps, etc.
The pork chops that have completed their training have long been reborn!
Gordon felt that if it was given enough materials and time, it might be a bit exaggerated to hunt the wyvern alone, and it was probably no problem to slowly torture a big monster bird to death.
This kindness is no longer something that can be repaid simply by saying thank you.
With the master's consent, Gordon and Pork Chop changed their names.
Gordon, like Julius, respectfully addresses him as Master, and Pork Chop respectfully addresses him as Teacher.
It's not as simple as changing the title, but more like a promise to be gracious and willing to do whatever you need.
Evening.
After finishing all his practice, Gordon and Pork Chop returned to their residence.
They intend to rest for a few days.
While practicing for a long time has made rapid progress in strength, it has also accumulated considerable fatigue.
If you don't relax, it's not as serious as a minor girl, but it's not a good thing.
Collapsed in the large hot tub, Gordon said to the pork chop lying on the water: "Pork chop, it's just the two of us left." ”
"It's meow.
"Anhil Fengying, they don't know where they are."
"Calculate the time, I should have just crossed the land bridge."
Gordon suddenly sat up from the tub and the waves upset the balance of the pork chop, causing it to tumble into the water.
"Meow!" The pork chop that fluttered its head out of the water and shook the water, screaming in dissatisfaction.
"Pork chop, after a few days of rest, let's go to the assessment task and be promoted to five stars!"
"Meow? Is Gordon sure to meow? ”
Gordon grinned and said confidently: "I have also seen five-star monsters a few times, before following the master to practice, I was six or seven percent sure, and now, ten percent!" ”
An oasis on the edge of a great desert, an unknown village shrouded in night.
The unicorn beasts went on a rampage, the tents used by the desert dwellers were blown away one by one, and the few rammed-earth buildings crumbled and collapsed under the brutal roof of the giant horns.
The giant bonfire that drove away the common beast could not stop it, and the scattered sparks ignited the dry tent cloth.
The roar of the beast, the panicked screams of the crowd, and the rising smoke and black smoke enveloped the otherwise peaceful village.
When the crazy beast left leisurely, only the villagers whose homes were destroyed were left crying without tears.
In the makeshift shack, several clan elders discussed with sad faces.
"What should I do, can I only migrate?"
"But this is the only oasis within a radius of hundreds of miles, and this attack has caused heavy losses and many wounded, so how can we move long distances?"
"Send someone to Barubaray and hire a hunter to hunt that guy!"
One of the men with a bandage on his head said angrily: "Since it came to this vicinity, it has attacked the village frequently, and we have not had a good day!" ”
"But Barubare, who will find them until they are re-encamped, and who will find them until they have left camp not long ago, and are now wandering in the great desert?"
Several people fell silent.
The Great Desert is huge, and the mobile stronghold of Barubare has to keep moving in order to take care of the villages in various places.
Eventually, one of the eldest came up with a plan.
"Write a letter and send it to Dondoruma with a peregrine falcon, and they will send someone."
