Chapter 90: The Duel in the City Lord's Mansion (Chapter 4)
I received a prompt from the system, and I was a little excited on Wednesday. System task, he really doesn't want to miss it, but this tightly armored man doesn't seem to be a weak person, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with, and if he doesn't get it, he will be left behind.
Do you want to take it? Wednesday pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Come, let me see what you are capable of." β
"Ding: Get the new quest 'Duel in the Castle Lord's Mansion', please complete the quest as required. β
Duel in the City Lord's Mansion: Defeat the City Lord's Mansion guard Jack Freeman in a duel, (Quest Reward: Good and Evil +20, Contribution +50, Intermediate Gold Sore MedicineΓ5, Shaolin Tan Legs Γ1).
After seeing the reward, Wednesday was secretly happy in his heart, and one of the cheats for the reward turned out to be the leg method, which is relatively rare. To say that in actual combat, in fact, the attack power of the leg method is quite strong, the so-called "hands are two doors, all rely on the legs to hit people", this is what it means.
Of course, that statement is slightly biased, but there is no doubt about the attack power of the leg method, and Wednesday just lacks a leg method. In "Taizu Long Fist", there are actually a few moves that attack with legs, but that is only support, lacking systematic changes and extensions, and the power is not too strong, which is obviously worse than the purer "Shaolin Bullet Legs".
Thinking so, Wednesday stood in front of Jack, the armored big man, with two small jumps in a row, and then took out his long stick and said, "Come on." β
The armored man still nodded calmly, then paused his sword on the ground, "High swordsman Jack Freeman!"
Wednesday smiled inwardly, made a solemn look on his face, and then took out his long stick. After brushing a stick flower, he stepped into a horse and walked back with a stick and flashed his palm, "Bruce Lee." Intermediate Warrior Monk. β
Warrior Monk? What kind of profession is that? Naturally, everyone has never heard of such a profession as a warrior monk, but looking at Wednesday's weapons and starting style are very peculiar. I thought it was a local specialty profession, so I didn't dare to underestimate Wednesday for a while.
And the reason why Wednesday said that he was an intermediate warrior monk was also something that could not be helped, he couldn't say that he was a junior monk. These people probably don't even have the difference between the titles of the novice monk and the monk, because Wednesday simply said a more clear intermediate monk. Even if those people don't know what the profession of warrior monk is, they can know the approximate level of Wednesday.
Of course, Wednesday's combat power is a little different from his professional level, or a little different from the understanding of those swordsmen. If those people really treat Wednesday as a mid-level swordsman, then they are definitely the ones who suffer.
I had Xiao Jiujiu in my heart, but I didn't let my guard down. However, Wednesday made a relaxed and chic appearance, waved the long stick and pointed at Jack with one hand, "Come on, let you make a few moves." β
Jack didn't say a word as if he hadn't heard Wednesday's words, holding the big sword in both hands and holding it diagonally in front of his chest, and the small broken steps under his feet moved quickly towards Wednesday, although he hadn't fought with Wednesday yet, but from the series of actions just now Wednesday, it could be seen that Wednesday was fast, so he made up his mind to suppress Wednesday with an offensive.
It's just that no matter how smart Jack is, there are limits. Where can we understand the wonder of light work?
In the face of Jack's attack on Wednesday, he smiled unhurriedly, took off sideways and spun, and when he landed, he was already a few meters away. "Come on. Take out your strongest offensive, I won't fight back, I said I'm going to let you make a few moves. β
"Hmph. If you have the ability, don't run," Jack was not annoyed when he missed the blow. It's just that he also wants to attack Wednesday with words, maybe he thinks that Wednesday will stop and fight him hard when he says that.
Wednesday knew the details in his heart. Naturally, he won't fight against him stupidly, and he hasn't figured out the strength of this Jack yet, so it's better to dodge first, and it's not too late to find out how to figure out his strength. And although Wednesday's attack power is not very sufficient, its stamina and sustainable combat power are super strong.
It's a big deal to consume time, not to mention that Jack is a high-level swordsman, even if he is a great swordsman and swordsman, their fighting spirit is limited, and it will always run out, and at that time they can only let Wednesday hang and fight.
Here you can see the advantages of internal forces. The initial effect of internal strength cultivation is not too strong, but it is very subtle, and it can flow at will with the cultivator's mind, stop when you want, and use it when you want, reducing consumption to the greatest extent.
But the fighting spirit is not good, from the beginning of cultivation, the power of the fighting spirit is very strong, and the attack power and defense are a little perverted, but the disadvantage lies in their controllability. Once the fighting spirit is activated when needed, it will spread all over the body, like a protective shield, with attack and defense, but once it stops, it will all retract, and the whole will become an ordinary person.
This is especially true in battle, once the Dou Qi is activated, it can only last until the end of the battle, or until the Dou Qi is exhausted. Although it can be stopped, but the nature of the fighting qi determines that its controllability is too poor, it takes a certain amount of time to stop and start again, although the higher the cultivation, the shorter the time, but after all, there are still some, it is impossible to be as seamless as internal strength.
You can imagine what it would be like for a swordsman to suddenly become an ordinary person while fighting. Therefore, the average swordsman in the battle is to open the fighting qi and then attack one round until the opponent is defeated, because if you can't take the opponent before the fighting qi is exhausted, then the one who loses is himself.
The swordsmen naturally knew this, and Jack was no exception, chasing Wednesday's crazy attack from the beginning of the battle, and his fighting spirit was obviously stronger, after pouring into the big sword, the surface of the big sword was covered with an almost substantial white color.
Chrissy said that most of the fighting energy cultivated by the swordsmen is white, no matter what level it is, even the great swordsman is white, and it is impossible to distinguish the level of the swordsman just by looking at the color. However, after the fighting spirit of different levels of swordsmen is used, the performance is still slightly different, and there is no way to say the specifics, but it can be seen at a glance after getting acquainted with it.
Wednesday himself has seen a lot of swordsmen, and he can probably distinguish them, the higher the level of swordsmen, the more condensed their fighting spirit. The fighting spirit of those junior swordsmen looked like it was covered with a layer of white hair on the surface of the big sword, the fighting spirit of the intermediate swordsman was a little like a substantial white mang, and the fighting spirit of Jack in front of him was more like a layer of baking paint.
However, in the strong fighting spirit, it is useless to attack the opponent, and it will only waste the fighting spirit in vain.
Jack was facing such a dilemma at this time, more than ten swords in a row, but he didn't even touch the shadow of Wednesday, although his fighting spirit was strong, but he couldn't withstand such consumption, when would it be a head if it went on like this? But Wednesday's movement speed was far beyond his comprehension.
Jack couldn't figure out how Wednesday did it. He had also carefully observed that Wednesday did not use Dou Qi at all, nor did he use magic, and the clothes he was wearing were just ordinary silk clothes, without any external force, but his movement speed was unusually fast.
After twenty moves, Jack's calm face was finally a little annoyed, "Do you only dodge? If so, I'll just admit defeat!"
In fact, Wednesday has already touched the details of this Jack. Although this Jack, who has been hidden in the armor, is a high-level swordsman, his combat style is no different from other swordsmen, except for the increase in attack power.
However, this Jack still has his own unique place, his attack and defense are more orderly, his ability to grasp the timing is stronger, the connection between moves is better, the murderous spirit is heavier, and he pays special attention to the movement of his feet when making movements, and often uses the change of steps to change the direction of attack.
After thinking about it carefully for a while, Wednesday understood that Jack should have undergone systematic training, not fighting training, but fighting training, just like boxers on the earth, there is special foot training, very systematic.
In fact, the principle of martial arts is the same, whether it is the East or the West, but the training methods are different. This Jack's training method is typical of Western thinking, which is simply direct and has a very clear purpose. If it were to be replaced by another swordsman, it would definitely be a little scrambling to face an attack like Jack's.
It's a pity that Jack met Wednesday, talking about the use of footwork, although Wednesday is far worse than Huang Feihong and others, in this world it is the level of a grandmaster, as long as Wednesday makes up his mind to only dodge and not attack, Jack is no matter how strong his fighting spirit is, it is useless.
When dodging on Wednesday, there is no need to consume internal force at all, as long as the reaction speed and dodging skills brought by "Golden Knife for Palm Skill" can eliminate all of Jack's offensive invisibly, and occasionally using the following "Lifting Technique" will not consume a few points of internal force.
But Jack's every action consumes the same amount of fighting energy, and even if he just stands still, the fighting energy is constantly being consumed. If this continues, Jack will definitely lose, which is not only understood by Jack himself, but also by the onlookers.
Just when everyone thought that Wednesday was going to slowly consume Jack to death, they saw Wednesday laugh and wave the long stick, "Come on, let you see my attack, lest I say that I am playing a trick to win you later," after speaking, he waved the long stick and smashed it diagonally towards Jack's big sword.
Jack's fighting spirit was still strong, and Wednesday's smash didn't have much effect, but it successfully blocked his attack. However, this was expected on Wednesday, and a stick was smashed down, and then the stick changed slightly to the tail of the stick, and then smashed it in reverse.
This change is the basic playing style in the "Four Sticks Method", which is a simple hand-changing technique, but it is this hand-changing technique that makes the long stick extremely dexterous, so that the big sword used by Jack has not been withdrawn, and the long stick on Wednesday has arrived again.
Wednesday's stick happened to hit Jack's shoulder, and the metal long stick collided with the metal shoulder guard with a dull impact sound, but the metal shoulder guard had been smashed flat by Wednesday, but Jack's fighting spirit was very strong, and he didn't suffer any damage.
