Chapter 44: Superior Strike
Early in the morning of the second day.
Lindsey woke up on time at the call of the biological clock.
If it was three years ago, he should have followed the Red Moon today and learned the various lores of the Death School.
But that life is very different from what it is now.
In three years, Lindsay learned the two words taught by Red Moon and raised them to a proficient level.
It can be said unceremoniously.
At present, he is already at the same level as Red Moon in terms of [Woodland Language] and [Death School Secret Language], which is enough to deal with any scene. And the knowledge of the school of death taught on a daily basis has also shifted to the follow-up study of the deceased when they are buried.
Lindsay no longer had the need to study with the red moon in the morning.
The original four-person rotation teaching has also evolved into the current three-person rotation.
Lindsay wakes up early and practices the words she has studied as a routine to ensure that her daily experience bar grows.
He then prepared breakfast for himself and Red Moon.
Saying goodbye to the Red Moon, he warmed up and rushed to the lord's manor.
“……”
"Ho!"
Lindsay was already familiar with the terrain, he did not walk from the main entrance of the manor, but went directly to the clearing on the edge of the forest where he was exercising, but before he arrived, he heard a loud shout from ahead.
"Big Brother Alain's voice?"
"What's going on?"
Lindsay raised her eyebrows and hurriedly stepped forward to check.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw what was happening in the clearing on the edge of the forest.
There were no surprises.
It was An Rui's apprentice Alain, who was besieged by several guards around him, wielding the wooden knife in his hand and knocking everyone back.
This is considered a daily martial arts practice.
Lindsay wanted to go up and say hello to Alain, but at this time, he noticed a subtle difference.
The skill that Alain learns is from the school of warfare.
In the first stage, the offensive ability based on superior strikes will be sublimated.
The second stage will greatly enhance the physique, and in terms of strength, speed, and reflexes, it will have a strength that exceeds that of ordinary awakened people.
These two sublimation skills.
It's all unpretentious, something that is used to enhance actual combat capabilities.
But now Alain, there is a unique temperament between his gestures. It was as if he had all the surrounding environment under control, and every time he was attacked, he could make predictions in advance, so as to achieve the effect of being the last to strike.
Instead of relying purely on the skills of the school of war to repel people as in the past!
"Brother Alain, did you break through?"
Lindsay stepped forward, and when Alain saw him coming, he sent away the guards who were sparring him.
"Lindsay, you're here too."
Alain greeted first, and then nodded with unconcealed joy:
"That's right, it's finally a breakthrough."
"The third stage of the warrior's heart allows me to be more comfortable in the battle and deal with all kinds of unexpected problems. After all the years of practice, it was not in vain! ”
Yesterday's torch finally mastered the first sublimation ability.
Today, Alain has broken through the long-standing bottleneck of the third stage.
The two friends were improving their skills at the same time, and Lindsay was genuinely happy for them.
"It's all Big Brother Alain, you have been rewarded for your hard work."
"It's all as it should be!"
Alain humbly replied:
"It's a fluke, it's just a fluke."
"But Lindsay, do you want to give it a try, it will definitely be beneficial to experience the skills of the war school early."
Lindsay thought that this was exactly the truth.
"Come on, let's try!"
Immediately, the two stood opposite each other in the clearing at the edge of the forest, each holding a wooden knife.
"Be careful."
Alain, who had just broken through, was the first to attack, and he rushed forward with an arrow, slashing the wooden knife in his hand straight at Lindsay's shoulder.
The knife seemed unremarkable, but Lindsay saw through it at a glance.
- Superior strikes.
In a normal battle, one person stands on the high ground and the other stands at the low point, and there must be a natural geographical advantage to shoot; If two people are at the junction of light and darkness, one is in the light and the other is in the shadow, there will be a difference in the line of sight when they fight.
It is this ability that is cultivated by the dominant strike.
Those who practice this school will automatically have an advantage in attacking, even if it is a fair 1-on-1 duel, after completing the first skill sublimation, making the enemy unguarded and even defeated in an instant.
Lindsay was already familiar with this technique.
So the moment Alan made a move, he immediately stepped back and pulled away.
Instead of resisting this seemingly ordinary, but actually contained power, like a jump from the second floor.
"Slow!"
At this moment, Alain shouted.
His movements seemed to have been prepared, and he pressed forward while Lindsay retreated, and the knife that could be avoided 100% was actually able to hit again!
Is this the predictive ability of the warrior's heart?
Realizing that something was wrong, Lindsay rolled on the spot to dodge, and then regained her footing.
If you are suppressed like this, you will definitely lose.
Lindsay's mind instantly judged the situation.
Then he did not retreat, but advanced, and in a short, sharp stride rushed towards Alain, the wooden knife slashing diagonally from the bottom to the top.
Syllable!
The Warrior's Heart is immune to raids.
Alain came first, and the two wooden knives intersected.
At this time, the movement of Lindsay's hand suddenly shook.
He had no idea of competing with the awakened of the School of War.
Instead, the pace of his feet changed, and the knife slashed along the strength of his body, forcing Alan to retreat and avoid.
"You're too flexible!"
Alain, who was repulsed, looked surprised.
Without the blessing of the skills of the School of War, Lindsay's performance has exceeded the normal range!
If it weren't for Alain's warrior heart that worked.
I'm afraid he's really hit!
"If it weren't for knowing your bottom line, and we'd be isolated from the rest of the world."
"I really want to suspect that you are from another war school, specially sent here to steal art!"
Lindsay replied with a smile:
"It's just a fluke, it's just luck."
In fact, Lindsay's action just now was not simple, how could the skills of a school be easily resisted?
Just like the archery skills learned from Dan have the ability to shoot quickly.
The swordsmanship and pace he learned from the Lord's Manor now also have the suffix (Superior Strike).
Although there is no skill of the school of war.
However, thanks to the skill panel, Lindsay can fine-tune the details of her movements when attacking.
Attack dodge stance, the power and angle of the sword.
This adjustment at the level of detail can also give him an advantage in the battle and achieve an alternative advantageous strike.
The two practiced like this for a while, and then separated, each carrying out their daily exercises.
And just like that, two hours passed.
At the back door leading to the manor, a figure in a purple dress walked out, her eyes locked directly on Lindsay.
"Lindsay, you're here!"
It's Anna.
Three years have passed, and the immature little girl has now grown into a slim girl.
She watched Lindsay practice martial arts, and her eyes were quite happy.
After just politely greeting, the first thing she said was to ask:
"I heard that you went hunting in the woods yesterday, did you collect any new fertilizer?"
Lindsay's posture immediately froze.
The fertilizer that Anna is talking about is what she uses to take care of the zelkova trees.
Usually, when Lindsay goes out hunting, she will help the girl collect raw materials and then hand them over to Finn to make.
When Lindsay went to the manor, she would take it with her.
This is basically a tacit understanding between the two.
But yesterday, Lindsay was in a really bad mood and forgot about it!
“……”
Lindsay was silent, and Anna saw the clue.
The girl stepped forward, staring at Lindsay with a pair of big watery purple eyes, and biting her lip lightly:
"What's wrong? What's wrong in the forest? Or do you forget ......?"
When Lindsay heard this, she hurriedly interrupted:
"Not what you think! Yesterday in the forest, I met a fairly strong wild boar and it took a lot of effort to get it to kill ......"
"Wild boar?" When Anna heard this, she didn't care about any fertilizer, and came over directly to check Lindsay's body, "You're not injured, are you?" ”
Living in a small town on the hidden frontier and having an ascended father, Anna is not a deep girl.
She knows how much of a threat wild boar poses to people!
Lindsay hurriedly waved his hand:
"It's okay, I'm fine, it's just that the process is a little nervous."
“……”
The two chatted for a few words, and the time was close to noon.
At this time, it was time to rest, so we went to the manor to have lunch together.
But as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the second floor of the main body of the manor, and An Rui pushed open the window and set his eyes on the two of them.
"Lindsay, come up for a moment. There's one thing you need to know! ”
Anrui called Lindsay, and then he saw Anna, sighed slightly, and said:
"Anna, come over too."
