Sword and Magic and Taxi

Chapter 16: Combat genre

   "What kind of weapon do you want to use?" The old man saw that Zhao Mai's attention had returned to the right path, so he asked him. There is a box in his tree hole. After opening, it is full of old equipment, not uniform in size and style.

   Without the old man’s explanation, Zhao Mai understood the origin of these weapons. This must be the spoils of battle after battle, which the ranger has accumulated through victory. So here you can see the serrated knives of the kobolds, the double-headed axes of the orcs, the spear-tailed halberds of the centaur, and the double-bladed machete of the jackals.

   Although the martial arts is completely zero, Zhao Mai's vision is definitely beyond time and space. From the bone rods of primitive people to the lightsabers of Star Wars, what high-manganese alloy swords to high-frequency ion vibrating knives, his theoretical knowledge-or brain holes-surpassed anyone at Glarion. All kinds of heroes throughout the ages, whether in history or from literary works, are in his memory bank. What he has to do now is to choose the path that suits him best.

   Speaking of the ranger's weapons, one would think of the magical bow and arrow skills of the Elf Ranger, and the other is the airtight sword net of the Dual Blade Ranger. These two roads are very good, both in appearance and power are superior. But if you think carefully, someone can reach the peak does not mean that it is the best thing for most people to learn, especially for Zhao Mai who has no foundation. He is just a human being, and it is impossible for him to spend a hundred years to practice these two types of martial arts like elves or dark elves.

   If he had exercised for a hundred years, Zhao Mai would definitely choose Taijiquan or find a way to practice internal strength, which is definitely more reliable than any double-knife ranger.

   The martial arts he understands is to defeat the enemy while protecting himself. It is very difficult to have both offensive and defensive weapons with one weapon, so he quickly figured out the path he would take.

   "Shield and short spear," he found the corresponding vocabulary and said to the old man: "Shield is the main one, short spear or sword or hammer will do."

   This is the safest way. Survival is the first, and it doesn't affect flexibility. He had chosen the shield a long time ago, which was the spare tire for his car. Although it is a little heavier, find a rope to fix it, this is the strongest artifact shield!

   The short spear is also called a one-handed spear. It is a weapon that can only be used for stabs. When raising the shield, only the simplest and shortest stabbing can guarantee that it does not affect the defender. The ancient Spartan warriors combined shields, short spears, battle formations and iron smelting technology, and matched their military culture to create a legendary army. Zhao Mai felt that this method of fighting was the most suitable for him.

   As for the future, he will definitely have to learn distance, such as crossbow. Ranger Carl's crossbow is a light crossbow, which can be shot with one hand (but it requires two hands to be wound), and it will not affect the use of the shield. Anyway, Zhao Mai's purpose is to hide behind the shield, watch others fight for life, and concentrate on making up the knife.

   This choice has no outstanding advantages, but there are no shortcomings, Karl agrees. He was actually worried that Zhao Mai would choose some flashy combat skills, such as dual wielding long swords and daggers. That kind of martial arts requires more step coordination, and Karl doesn't understand those footwork, for fear that he will teach it badly.

   The shield and spear are much simpler, and there are fewer movements to learn. The actions of the shield include guarded shield-holding posture, five techniques of blocking, sliding, pulling, pushing, and smashing. The rest is sufficient arm strength, keen response and sustained concentration.

   Using a spear to put it plainly, there is only one action: stab. Because he has a shield in his other hand, Zhao Mai can only consider attacking with a spear, and does not need to learn to defend with a spear for the time being. The old ranger Karl took out a pen and paper, drew a figure crookedly, and then began to talk about basic combat skills training methods.

   He divided the plane in front of Zhao Mai into nine squares, marking the numbers like a computer keyboard. 1 means the attack comes from the bottom left, 6 is the center right, and 8 is directly above. As long as you can defend the offensive grid, and then grab the enemy's undefended grid stab, you can win.

   This is a very simple and refined way, easy to understand. Holding his wooden shield, he made the basic moves of defending the nine squares, and let Zhao Mai imitate them one by one until they got it right. Then he picked up a wooden stick, shouted numbers in his mouth, and launched a corresponding attack.

   does not consider false moves, does not consider skills, only considers simple block, this method is the foundation of the foundation. As Zhao Mai listened to the numbers, he had to react quickly in his mind and make the right actions. At first, Karl's stick speed was very slow, and then gradually accelerated, Zhao Mai must keep up with the rhythm as soon as possible.

   Strength, speed, and skill are the core components of martial arts, but they need to be built on a certain foundation. Carl may not be able to train a master of martial arts, but as Zhao Mai's introductory master, he couldn't be more suitable. He guided Zhao Mai step by step, watching him gradually form the most basic reaction, making sure that he mastered the basic movements, so he let him practice.

   Putting down the light wooden shield, Zhao Mai picked up the heavy spare tire shield, his center of gravity was crooked by this thing, and it was not easy to stand still. It’s not impossible to practice with a light shield first, but if you don’t have the spirit to endure hardship, how can you improve faster? Without pressure, there is no motivation, and it's not that others are embarrassing yourself, but that you are making demands for yourself. There is no reason not to work hard!

   He practiced from the beginning one movement, and gradually became familiar with the center of gravity and inertia of the spare tire shield. Muscle soreness is nothing. The only thing Zhao Mai regrets is that he doesn't have a big mirror. If you can have a whole wall reflector like a dance practice room, UU reading www. uukanshu.com will be very helpful for correcting your actions.

   When he was training, the shaggy dog ​​couldn't lie on his shoulder. The little guy didn't stay away, watching Zhao Mai's training with his big eyes open, his little tail swayed. As long as Zhao Mai's movements are standard, its tail will swing quickly; if it is not done well, it will be too lazy to move. Although it is weird to let a dog correct his training, it is a fantasy world after all, isn't it?

   When it was getting darker, the Ranger Carl stopped Zhao Mai’s self-training and went to the kitchen to cook with salt. Zhao Mai wanted to follow, but his arms could not be raised. He has never been so tired or satisfied in his life for more than 20 years. He doesn't need others to praise him at this time, because he can feel his own progress.

   Orc Solu tilted his head and looked at Zhao Mai, curled his lips, and followed Carl to the kitchen. Today's dinner will have cheese and sweet wine from Nepo Town, which he has been coveting for a long time.

   Soru didn't like "Mike" who was sitting in the yard waiting for food without helping. He thought it was "weak and useless". "Teacher, do you want to train him to be a ranger?"

   "No, he can't become a jungle ranger, he won't stay here forever." Carl thought of the way Mike came to this world, and understood that sooner or later Mike would definitely leave. He shook his head and asked Soru to fetch some more water.

   The strong shoulders of the orcs are getting wider and wider, and Soru is much better than himself in terms of physical fitness. In terms of strength, endurance, and speed, he can take over the position of the jungle ranger. The only thing that worries Karl is the character of the half-orc.
