Chapter 220: The Art of Gladiatorial Fighting
The twelve golden figures under the scorching sun shone a little dazzlingly, Xie Minyun's long dark blue hair hanging down to her waist was glowing with colorful streamers, beautiful as shampoo advertisements, Cheng Mo watched Xie Minyun's boots leave a series of clear footprints on the Colosseum covered with yellow sand, thinking that maybe these patterns would soon be printed on his body.
Xie Minyun walked to the center of the Colosseum, turned to look at Cheng Mo who was walking slowly, and asked, "You shouldn't have received any gladiatorial training, right?"
Cheng Mo hesitated, or deliberately ignored Bai Xiuxiu's plan to teach him gladiatorial fighting, but he hadn't had time yet, he nodded and said, "Taijilong's course on gladiatorial fighting will also be covered after graduate school, right?"
Xie Minyun said "um" and said, "I thought Uncle Li would tell you some basic things. ”
Cheng Mo shrugged his shoulders: "I used to think so. ”
Cheng Mo's teasing made Xie Minyun smile, so the corners of her lips were dancing with golden sunlight, which reminded Cheng Mo of a frightening glimpse of passing by Xie Minyun on a summer afternoon, when he was waiting for a bus at the corner of the street, and she was sitting on an expensive and gorgeous Rolls-Royce, they were people of two worlds.
However, now they are husband and wife.
The wonder of fate is incredible.
"Then I'll start from the beginning......" Xie Minyun knocked Cheng Mo's head and said seriously: "Cheng Mo, please be serious and don't get distracted." Otherwise, I won't teach you......"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xie, I must have a correct attitude. ”
Hearing Cheng Mo say the word "teacher", the shallow smile on the corner of Xie Minyun's mouth gradually disappeared, as if the sun sank into the horizon, and the bright light slowly disappeared, leaving only the dim night.
Cheng Mo said "bad" in his heart, but he didn't know how to remedy it, so he could only pretend that nothing happened, and looked at Xie Minyun with no heart at all.
Fortunately, Xie Minyun didn't dwell on this matter, and said lightly: "The Chosen One's combat skills include two major aspects: offensive techniques and defensive techniques. Offensive techniques can be divided into skill use and movement, and skill use can be subdivided into skill understanding, charge skills, skill combination skills, and so on. Movement can be subdivided into straight sprint approach, jumping technique, retreat step, wrapping step, and flying trick......"
"Isn't that much like fighting?"
"I'll ask any questions when I'm done. Xie Minyun said expressionlessly.
Cheng Mo immediately shut up.
"Defensive techniques can be divided into shrink defense, retreat step defense, energy shield block defense, offensive dodge defense, and response after receiving heavy hits, etc. If you want to fight for a good place in the heavenly rankings, or if you want to win gladiatorial fights, you have to practice a lot of individual techniques in these subdivisions. Xie Minyun paused and asked, "What skills do you have at the moment?"
"Teleport, Energy Shield, Abyssal Gaze, Tenacity, Pulsed Laser Beam, Freezing Ray, Deathlight, Dragon's Kiss, Firestorm ....."
"It's much better than I thought, with teleportation, even if you have the basic requirements for playing ranking, but your skills have all kinds of phases, physics, chemistry, psychology..... Specializing in one series is more beneficial to the future. ”
Cheng Mo couldn't say that the skills of the Department of Chemistry were robbed by Floran in Penglai Mountain, so he didn't open his mouth and pretended to accept it humbly.
"Although your skills are quite good, don't think that gladiatorial battles can be won as long as you have good skills, this is a very wrong idea, just like we want to build a building, having a good skill is just to lay a good foundation, what I just said about offensive and defensive techniques is the material for building buildings. However, it is not necessary to lay a good foundation, and with good materials, you will definitely be able to build a building...... That's why Napoleon VII just said, 'Gladiatorial battles are not as simple as making predictions'. ”
"Take the gladiatorial fight between Amidio and Johnson just now, I asked you to pay attention to Amidio's pace at the time, because someone commented that Amidio's pace movement is very good, fast and agile without dragging the water, so Johnson's pace is very poor? No, it's also very strong, he moves steadily, his movements are definitely not deformed by Amidio's pressure, and it can even be said that Johnson's pace is even more powerful than Amidio, because he can skillfully use the pace control and Amideo's distance, which is especially crucial in defense, and I guess this is why Napoleon VII is not optimistic about Amidio. ”
"Strong movement skills are the foundation of all offense and defense, not skills. This was the first thing my uncle said when he taught me gladiatorial fighting. ”
"Sure enough, it's the layman who looks at the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway.... Looks like I still have a lot of homework to make up. Cheng Mo whispered, hesitated for a moment, and Cheng Mo said with some doubts, "But you still haven't explained why prediction is not the key to victory or defeat." ”
"At a certain level, each Chosen One not only has powerful skills, but also does a lot of basic exercises, but can he definitely become a master of the top 100 on the Heavenly List? Speaking of the skills provided by the Chosen One system, there are so many skills, although the carrier has a way of moving beyond humans, but the basics are still those, just think of articles and music, the words that make up the article are just a few words, and the words that make up the music are just a few notes, but the articles written by each person are different, the music they make is different, and the gladiatorial battles are the same....."
This metaphor is very good and easy to understand, so to see a person's fighting style, not only to see what skills he brings, but also to see how he connects these skills, just like Joseph, although he brought three defensive skills, he did not fight defensive counterattacks, but flat push and heavy strikes. He's a fortress, but it's the kind of heavy artillery fortress that can move. Cheng Mo suddenly realized.
Xie Minyun nodded and said, "This is not to mention why prediction is not the most important thing in the gladiatorial battle between masters, this may not be so profound just by saying." After taking a deep look at Cheng Mo, Xie Minyun said meaningfully, "Let's take a real fight and learn some lessons, and you will understand a little." ”
"Is this the beginning of the actual battle? The theory is not finished, and you haven't taught me the offensive and defensive techniques yet. Cheng Mo is very calm on the surface, but he breaks out in a cold sweat in his heart, the proportion of men who are subjected to domestic violence in the world is increasing year by year, and this is still the case that many men dare not report to the police because of their face, so the situation of men being subjected to domestic violence is a serious problem that has been ignored......
Xie Minyun seemed to see through what Cheng Mo was thinking, and Shi Shiran said: "Gladiatorial fighting is a kind of competition, not domestic violence. Besides, for the carrier, a little injury is nothing..... In the driving range, even if you are killed and resurrected, you will not be charged. ”
Cheng Mo smiled bitterly and said, "It's not really going to be killed, is it?" After all, the pain is not so strong, and it is still real.....
"It seems that your carrier has never died! I don't know that the pain of death of the Chosen One's carrier is hundreds or even thousands of times greater than that of the main body. ”
"Huh?" Cheng Mo looked stunned.
Xie Minyun said indifferently: "Because the bearing capacity of the carrier is too high, no matter how painful it is, it will not faint, unlike human beings who will faint by themselves when the pain reaches a critical point, the carrier will not at all, you can savor what it feels like to have deep pain." Therefore, some institutions torture the chosen one and prefer to start with the carrier..... Would you like to experience it?"
Cheng Mo felt that he was sweating like rain, wiped his forehead, but there was not a drop of sweat on it, he put down his hand and said with an embarrassed expression: "It's better not to experience this kind of thing or not to experience it." ”
"Then let's not kill you..... You attack me, whatever you want. ”
Cheng Mo knew that Xie Minyun was intimidating him, and he was a little flustered, it would be too embarrassing to be beaten by his wife and beg for mercy, even if he was a person like Cheng Mo who didn't care about face at all, he didn't want to show too embarrassed in front of the person he liked.
"It's impossible to win, but you must not let the senior sister take it lightly. Cheng Mo thought to himself. He plans to do his best, he must not let Xie Minyun learn too badly, the best result is to impress her. After thinking for a while, Cheng Mo asked, "Right here, or stand farther away?"
"Whatever you want, basic attacks, skills, or your strongest Death Light, whatever you want. Xie Minyun clasped his hands to his chest, stood in place and said motionlessly.
Cheng Mo's eyes were empty, and he looked like I was actually very strong, and said in a deep voice: "Then you should pay attention." ”
Cheng Mo recalled the gladiatorial fight between Amidio and Johnson, and did not choose to distance himself from Xie Minyun, although it seems that it will be safer to distance himself, but in fact, for a rookie like him, the risk of pulling a distance is greater than getting close, and there may be a chance to resist in a close fight, and he can only let himself be a mermaid if he distances away.
After thinking carefully about how to attack, Cheng Mo faced Xie Minyun, who was about a meter away from him, and put on an offensive posture, he learned and used it, imitating Amidio's movements, shaking left and right, and first swung his right fist like lightning to attack Xie Minyun's left temple, seeing that this posture was a classic chain attack of left and right fists.
"Huh~~!Huh~~!" The fist wind sounded, Xie Minyun took a step back lightly and flashed Cheng Mo's menacing attack, widening the distance between him and Cheng Mo. All this was within Cheng Mo's expectations, halfway through the third punch, Cheng Mo suddenly turned around, and his right leg was back like a scorpion swinging its tail to attack Xie Minyun's head, if Xie Minyun still retreated like just now, he couldn't pull away from the right distance, either block or take this blow.
And his right foot is also covered with the "Freezing Ray" that he makes good use of, although the damage of this Freezing Ray skill is not high, but under Cheng Mo's research, this skill has been practiced by Cheng Mo to control the results, and it can also increase Cheng Mo's attack distance, if Xie Minyun doesn't pay enough attention, he will definitely suffer a big loss.
However, at the moment when Cheng Mo teased his legs, Xie Minyun moved horizontally, and with incredible speed and pace, he directly circled the visual blind spot on Cheng Mo's side, and suddenly reached out and pointed at Cheng Mo's waist.
The sound of electricity sounded, Cheng Mo felt numb all over his body, the muscles of his whole body were completely uncontrollable, he twitched his body twice to stand firmly, but he immediately collapsed to the ground, fluttering out a piece of yellow dust.
"It's too fast. Cheng Mo thought to himself, then opened his eyes to see Xie Minyun's boots getting closer and closer, bent down and reached out to pull his back collar, lifting him up from the ground, and immediately a warm current rushed to the limbs, and he regained the ability to move.
Cheng Mo helped Xie Minyun's shoulders to stand firm, Xie Minyun helped him pat the yellow sand on his body, Cheng Mo gritted his teeth, and said very hardly: "No need to shoot, it's going to fall anyway." ”
Xie Minyun said angrily: "Do you think I really want domestic violence! It's not to let you understand the deepest mystery of gladiatorial fighting. ”
"I think it's a prediction! You anticipated my movements, and knocked me down with ease. ”
Xie Minyun shook his head while patting the ashes on Cheng Mo's body and said: "Gladiatorial fighting has developed to this day, the skills have been perfect enough, and the people who can climb to the top 100 in the sky are the people with the highest IQ in the world, everyone has a deep enough understanding of gladiatorial fighting, and can fully judge the opponent's offensive intentions and defensive methods, and fully know what kind of things they should do at what point in time." 'Prediction' is the key that all the Chosen ones understand, even the most junior Chosen ones will know to defend when the opponent attacks, and then find the intermittent of the opponent's attack or the loophole of the defense. This is clear to all....."
Xie Minyun said this, Cheng Mo finally understood the mystery of the master's battle that Napoleon VII said, he closed his eyes, spit out a breath of turbidity and said: "So the strength of the masters is reflected in the acting skills, using all kinds of technical actions to deceive the place, so that his misjudgment produces mistakes......"
Xie Minyun put down his hand, smiled and said, "The comprehension ability is still quite strong!"
Cheng Mo immediately said with a respectful face: "The main thing is that my wife teaches well. ”
Hearing Cheng Mo call her "wife" for the first time, Xie Minyun suddenly felt a little flustered, she raised her hand and stroked the hair in her ears, seeing Cheng Mo staring at her, thinking that her shy and nervous appearance was seen through by Cheng Mo, she bit her lip and asked dissatisfiedly: "What do you see?"
Cheng Mo subconsciously replied: "I didn't see anything." This is the same answer as when he began to answer Hancock's "what to see", in fact, Cheng Mo wanted to tell Xie Minyun, "You are really beautiful, not just beautiful, but beautiful, I am so lucky to be with you", all these words may be summed up as a simple "I love you", but he can't say it.
Once Cheng Mo didn't understand why people have unspeakable moments, in his opinion, if there is anything he wants to say, there is no such thing as unspeakable, but at this second he was a little enlightened, it turned out that when facing intimate people, there would really be love that could not be spoken.
Maybe it's because the word love is too heavy, or maybe it's because he's afraid that the love that is easy to say won't be cherished, in short, Cheng Mo feels that most modern people, including him, are losing the ability to say "love".
Cheng Mo felt that he still knew very little about "love", just like his understanding of "gladiatorial fighting", which made him a little frustrated, and he began to think about it again, whether the love between himself and Xie Minyun was love, if it was love, what kind of love would this kind of love be, their future was still very long, and could they really go far?
The chaotic thoughts make a rational person like Cheng Mo also suffer some gains and losses. No matter how rational a person is, he cannot be completely rational in love, just as the science that supports reason is never rational, but passionate.......
There will always be times when people have dementia.
Xie Minyun snorted coldly and said, "If you don't see anything, you are not allowed to watch it." ”
Cheng Mo didn't know why, maybe he was annoyed that he was not honest and brave, so he really lowered his head.
Xie Minyun was really blown up by Cheng Mo's wooden fish head, and the sweetness aroused by the sentence "Wife" just now disappeared, and he said with a straight face: "What you said just now is only half right, when you play more ranked, you will understand that in the gladiatorial fight, only when the opponent makes a move, is the best time to make your own moves, just like just now, when you make a move, the defense is the weakest, and at this time, you can't even use teleportation, so the counterattack is the easiest to hit the opponent." However, the masters understand this truth, so the real technique is reflected in how to use feints to seduce the opponent to make moves, especially heavy attacks, and defend themselves by dodging or predicting to hit the opponent's counterattack. ”
"The reason why Amidio lost to Johnson just now was to lose in the game of the last heavy blow, both sides thought that they could hit each other hard, Johnson deliberately hit a trick to lure Amidio to use a heavy blow, and Amidio also used a heavy blow as planned, but unfortunately Johnson's annihilation had a restraining effect on Amidio's Infinity Ring, so Amidio lost...... Reaching the level of Amidio and Johnson, the competition is actually a game of various technical actions in the use of timing, that is, the battle of wit, the purpose of the battle of wits is that I can hit you, but you can't hit me, or I am attacked by the general attack to exchange your skills, the gladiatorial battle between the masters is basically at the level of exchange to game, the dominant side strives to occupy more cheap, through the accumulation of advantages to win, and the inferior side, the right to use the exchange to stop the loss. ”
A smart person like Cheng Mo understood as soon as Xie Minyun said it, raised his head and looked at Xie Minyun and said: "Isn't this the same as playing "League of Legends....."?
Xie Minyun frowned and said, "League of Legends is a game?"
"Haven't you played before?"
Xie Minyun shook his head and said coldly: "If you don't count playing chess online, I have only played Minesweeper and Tetris in computer games. ”
"If you're interested, I'll teach you how to play, it's fun. ”
"I'm only interested in teaching you how to fight right now. Xie Minyun said with a cold face.
Cheng Mo didn't understand why Xie Minyun was angry again, no matter how much he knew about "Psychology", he still couldn't guess the girl's mind, but he knew that Xie Minyun would probably be better off beating him, so he could only smile bitterly and say, "Then let's continue to practice in actual combat!"
Xie Minyun looked at Cheng Mo and said awe-inspiringly: "You haven't reached the time for actual combat practice yet, but each Heavenly Chosen One will have a different style of play that suits him because of his personal talent and skills, so I'll take a look at what you're good at first." ”
Cheng Mo was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had misunderstood Xie Minyun, she was not angry at all, even if she was angry, she did not plan to beat him up and get angry, no matter what the reason, it is a good thing not to be beaten in this situation, which made Cheng Mo breathe a sigh of relief, he quickly nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Xie Minyun raised her hands, clenched her fists alternately in front of her chest, her knuckles clicked, she looked at Cheng Mo and sneered: "Then I'll see if you're good at defending first......
Cheng Mo was a little stunned, and before he could react, he lost the trace of Xie Minyun in front of him, and when he reacted, his body had already risen in the air and shot towards the marble wall directly opposite.....
