Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 254 New usage of the second skill

Snapped!Snapped!
Two consecutive crisp sounds came from Zheng Shu's body, which meant that two more bows and arrows hit him.

Although he was beaten very painfully, Zheng Shu still tried his best to concentrate his attention, and kept moving quickly while observing the possible attack positions around him.

The place where he is located is an endless grassland, and theoretically there is no place where people can hide around.

But getting along with Chiron for a period of time let Zheng Shu know what it means to be the top archer in ancient Greece. With the help of magic, Chiron can even shoot beyond visual range.

And no matter how fast the bow and arrow are, Chiron's magic power can cancel out most of the air resistance and noise, so that even if the bow and arrow speed exceeds the speed of sound, it will still remain silent when shooting.

In addition to the sound, Chiron's bows and arrows are often shot at the blind spot of Zheng Shu's vision. Even if an arrow occasionally appears in Zheng Shu's field of vision, it must be to attract his attention and serve as an excuse for other arrows. The sneak attack is used as bait.

Zheng Shu's perception is indeed very strong, but most of the time he relies on his five senses to detect danger.

But now, apart from vision being able to play a little role, other senses can't work, and vision also has side effects in most cases, so that Zheng Shu had to improve his perception of danger under the pressure of such an environment. ability.

Chiron, who was standing on another cliff, smiled and watched the students who were constantly changing their moving trajectories in the distance.

Zheng Shu's improvement rate in the past few days surprised him. When he first started training, his student was just a reckless man who could only rely on his physical fitness to fight, but after only a few days, His skills in all aspects have been greatly improved.

In the beginning, Chiron didn't even need to expend too much effort to shoot it, but now, Chiron almost used all his shooting skills to shoot Zheng Shu who was suppressed by magic and rock.

"It should be almost there. If you can really avoid my arrows in this situation, then from now on, no one in this world will be able to shoot you with a bow and arrow." Chiron opened his bow again. Several arrows were attached to the bow, "So... let me see your potential."

On the plain, Zheng Shu, who was trying to be on guard, suddenly discovered something, looked up suddenly, and saw an arrow full of magic power falling from the sky.

After calculating the landing point of the bow and arrow, Zheng Shu moved two steps briskly to avoid it.

However, he was not in any mood to relax, because Chiron usually does not have such obvious appearance when shooting arrows. The fact that this arrow was found so easily by him only shows that it is just a decoy, and there should be other arrows secretly. Ya was shooting at himself.

Finally, with Zheng Shu's unremitting efforts, he found another arrow shot from the original blind spot.

Taking a light step to the side again, Zheng Shu suddenly felt a tingling scalp, and without thinking about it, he jumped up from the ground.

The moment he jumped up, a bow and arrow that was shot completely close to the ground flew past the soles of his feet.

Supported by the magic power, the bow and arrow attached to the ground kept changing its direction above the ground like a fish swimming to ensure that it remained in the blind spot of Zheng Shu's vision at any time.Coupled with the cover of the grass on the grassland, if it wasn't for the sudden feeling, Zheng Shu might really be tricked.

Before Zheng Shu could feel complacent, the feeling of scalp numbness continued. Zheng Shu, who had just jumped up and was still in mid-air, suddenly turned his head to look in one direction, and the bones of his neck even made a "click" sound.

On the cliff in the distance, he saw a faint flash of light—it was the flash of magic power.

With Zheng Shu's eyesight, even at a distance of several kilometers, he can still see the smile on the corner of his teacher's mouth and his opening and closing lips in the distance.

Through the movement of Chiron's lips, Zheng Shu immediately read what he said: "Well done, but you can't avoid it."

Huge magic power erupted from Chiron's body, and instantly gathered into the bow and arrow in his hand, making the bow and arrow made of wood emit dazzling magic light, as if it had become an arrow composed of light.

boom!
A deafening sound came. This time, Chiron didn't cover up any traces, just let go of the bow and arrow in his hand, and launched a "cannonball" at the students far away from him.

With the blessing of a large amount of magic power, the bow and arrow broke through several times the speed of sound the moment they left the hand, and the arrow shot through the air with a long tail flame of magic power, and a beautiful sonic boom cloud hung on the arrow tail. Then he arrived in front of Zheng Shu.

Fortunately, Zheng Shu discovered Chiron's shooting intention a little earlier, and before the arrow was about to arrive, he finally slapped the other side.

Bang!
The arm bursting with magic light shattered the air. With the help of the recoil of the shock wave, Zheng Shu adjusted his posture in midair a little bit.

With the help of this little displacement, Zheng Shu avoided the direct shooting of the bow and arrow, and the radiant arrow flashed past Zheng Shu's body and sank straight into the ground.

boom! ! !
After a little silence, deafening explosions came from the ground.

The ground that was originally solid seemed to have turned into liquid at this moment, and the entire plain seemed to be fluctuating. The strong explosion sprayed a large amount of soil into the sky, as if setting off a tsunami composed of soil.

Zheng Shu, who had not yet landed in time, was directly blasted by the shock wave, but in mid-air, Zheng Shu's seemingly huge and bloated body was as sensitive as a sea swallow. to hit him with stone and earth.

Until Zheng Shu landed safely, except for a thin layer of dust, his body was not directly hit by any clods or gravel.

"call……"

After finally getting his feet on the ground, Zheng Shu let out a long sigh of relief, checked himself, and confirmed that he had survived the attack perfectly, Zheng Shu couldn't help showing a smug smile on his face.

Turning his head to look at Chiron's position, the centaur had already started running towards Zheng Shu.

Waving his hand, Zheng Shu just wanted to show off his achievements to his teacher, but suddenly felt a familiar tingling of the scalp.

"Grass!"

Cursing secretly, Zheng Shu didn't have time to think about anything, so he could only hide to the side in the direction he felt.

Snapped!
The clear cracking sound came from Zheng Shu's side. It was an arrow exuding dim magic light, which was the one that Chiron used as bait to shoot down from the sky at first.

After Zheng Shu avoided it, he even forgot its existence, but he didn't expect that at such a critical moment, the arrow that looked like a decoy made the final blow.

Looking at the chaotic wreckage flying towards him, Zheng Shu's brain suddenly became strange. He found that he seemed to be able to predict the flying route behind these wreckage, as if there was an invisible paintbrush helping him The flight path is marked out.

Swish!
The messy wreckage of bows and arrows flew by, but none of them could hit Zheng Shu. Zheng Shu seemed to just move his footsteps a few times at random, and easily dodged all the wreckage that shot at him.

The wreckage closest to Zheng Shu even brushed his nose, but Zheng Shu didn't make much movement when he saw the object flying past his eyes. dodged.

"Oh... that's interesting, I have succeeded?" Zheng Shu looked at the ground that was shot into a sieve by the wreckage and was a little surprised.

Recalling the trajectories that emerged in his mind when he faced these wreckages just now, Zheng Shu suspected that if he had a Heroic Spirit Panel on his body now, something like "Arrow Avoidance Protection" might have appeared on him.

"Very good!" Chiron's gratified voice came from behind Zheng Shu, and after such a delay, he had already run to Zheng Shu's vicinity.

Looking at it, Chiron's eyes were full of satisfaction: "Very good, your progress is much faster than I expected, so this stage of training is complete."

Hearing his teacher's praise, Zheng Shu bowed slightly to Chiron: "This is thanks to your guidance, teacher."

Chiron shook his head, and raised his hand to condense a magical plane capable of reflecting the scene: "There are many people who have been in contact with my guidance, but I have only seen Heracross besides you who can improve so fast. And with that The little guy is different, your talent makes it much easier for me to guide you."

Putting the magic mirror in front of Zheng Shu, Chiron also seemed very satisfied: "Look, after completing the trial just now, your appearance has changed drastically now."

Zheng Shu glanced at his own appearance reflected in the magic mirror. Although his face was covered with dust, he could still tell that there was a handsome young man with a tough face in the mirror.

Before the trial this morning, Zheng Shu had just seen his own appearance. Compared with that time, his current appearance has obviously improved a little bit.

Regarding the change of Zheng Shu's appearance, the second skill was actually described at the beginning.

Unknown beauty: Your real appearance will become extremely beautiful, and it will become more beautiful as your strength and age improve, but when others see your appearance, they will only see a picture Very ordinary face.

The focus of Zheng Shu's use this time is the description of "As your strength and age improve, you will become more beautiful".

In fact, Zheng Shu has already started to take advantage of this feature a long time ago. In addition to the influence of age, in most cases, if his appearance suddenly changes drastically, it is basically because of his strength. caused by the change.

For example, when Zheng Shu learned how to use magic power with Vera, the reason why he was able to learn "magic power release" so quickly was because Zheng Shu took advantage of the nature of the second skill on the panel.

It was the same when learning various fighting skills with Chiron. Every time after learning a skill, Zheng Shu would observe whether his appearance had changed to a certain extent.

If there is a change, it means that your practice direction is correct. If there is no change or the change is not obvious, it means that your current learning method is not suitable or you are practicing in the wrong direction.

At the beginning, when Chiron saw his students running to the pool to observe his own appearance every day, Chiron admonished him slightly worriedly, advising him not to be too obsessed with his own appearance.

After all, in ancient Greek mythology, there are lessons learned from the tragedy that happened because of being too obsessed with oneself.

Chiron, who is a centaur, can naturally see Zheng Shu's true face, so he was particularly worried about his student's problem at the beginning.

However, as a professional teacher, Chiron quickly realized the changing law of Zheng Shu's appearance, and sometimes even Zheng Shu's sudden comprehension of a certain technique would cause his appearance to change on the spot.

Part of the reason why Zheng Shu's follow-up training plan became so aggressive is because Chiron fully understood the law of his appearance changes after talking with Zheng Shu.

Although the indicator of "appearance" is a bit vague, it is completely incomparable with the kind of plug-ins that directly display percentages.

But for Chiron, the top teacher in ancient Greece, as long as he has such a vague reference point, he can fully grasp Zheng Shu's training situation.

Then... as long as you can't die in practice, practice to death!
The final result was that it took Zheng Shu just over a month to fully master the methods of dodging various attacks in battle.

"Not bad, it looks like my progress is obvious." Zheng Shu touched his chin in comparison with the mirror, with a smug look on his face.

Chiron looked at his student's movements and didn't say much, just shook his head with a smile: "I never thought that there would be such a miraculous talent in this world, and I never thought that there would be such a magical talent before I met you." Some people have such a talent.

It's a pity that ordinary people can't see your appearance, which will hinder you from promoting your reputation in the future.Fortunately, even if they can't see your appearance, your strength is enough to conquer people. "

"In my opinion, it's a good thing that ordinary people can't see my appearance. I don't want to be famous." Zheng Shu shrugged.

"That's right, the reason for your pursuit of strength is not to promote your own glory." Chiron nodded and then his expression became serious, "Since you have completed the primary training, now we can start the next one gone."

After hearing this, Zheng Shu's face also became serious: "Yes! I will continue to trouble you later, teacher!"
