Chapter 813: Air Combat Light Crossbow?
Anhil sighed, reluctantly accepting the fact that he had a younger sister on a legal level.
"Come with me." He patted the back of Xuanxu's head and walked to another training ground with better facilities.
Xu Xu followed happily.
“Damn it, I’m envious!” Gale muttered through gritted teeth.
Gordon looked at her with a smile and joked, "Wouldn't it be more fulfilling if you work hard and snatch 'Ancil's sister' as your disciple?"
"Huh?!" Gai I clenched my fists, "You're right, I'm on fire!"
The process of the basic test went smoothly.
This part mainly revolves around physical fitness. Physical training is always the top priority for those newcomers who have not yet become official hunters, and it is also the key to widening the gap between ordinary people and hunters.
The result is unexpected, but also reasonable.
Xuanxu's physical ability is obviously not at the level of ordinary people. Of course, it cannot be compared with Gordon and the others, but it is almost at the level of a novice hunter.
The harsh living environment of Shuhai has created all this, just like the teenagers who helped work in the fields since they were young, they must be stronger than the children in the city.
What's more, the Alchemy Academy where she once stayed also arranges physical training.
This result satisfied Hilda.
Building physical fitness is the most time-consuming part, and most of the students who enter the training camp will also be screened out at this stage. Their physical fitness and talent are not enough to support them in becoming hunters.
Xuanxu can skip this step and directly learn hunting knowledge and techniques from senior students.
After obtaining this part of the results, Hilda modified the test content and conducted further research.
It was later discovered that Xuanxu had indeed reached the level of a formal hunter in some aspects, and even exceeded the level of most hunters.
The two most outstanding points are pace and tracking ability. Of course, there is a prerequisite - in a dense forest environment.
If she ran freely in a primitive forest like the sea of trees, only Hilda could catch up with her. Several others, including Hayata, a small-arms hunter with a speed advantage, will all be thrown away.
The same goes for tracking.
According to Hilda, as long as you supplement your weapon usage skills and the ability to fight monsters head-on, Xuanxu is already a very good hunter - limited to the dense forest environment.
The test was actually over at this point, but out of curiosity, Gordon suggested letting Xuanxu show off her martial arts skills again.
She said she could use a flute, hammer and bow.
Even the hunter training camp in East Doruma obviously does not have such things as flutes and hammers. Hilda gave her an insect stick for training as a substitute.
I can't use the functions of the insect stick, so I can only use the monster target as the target to demonstrate the stick technique.
This aspect can only be said to be okay, at the level of a senior hunter student, but in order to adapt to the weapons used by hunters, many habits have to be overthrown and restarted.
The archery skills are similar. The residents of the Sea of Trees mostly use light short bows.
In fact, except for monster hunters, no one would use a giant bow that was as tall as a person when unfolded, and the arrows it fired were comparable to short spears. The bow and arrow skills she had mastered before were of little significance.
However, Hilda recognized her eyesight, which is the basic condition for becoming a shooter.
Just when Hilda was thinking about how to arrange the crickets more appropriately.
Anhil suddenly raised a question that was ignored by them, "Xuanxuan, can you take off this parasitic armor?"
Everyone was stunned, but except No one thought anything wrong except Mrs. Sterling, who raised her eyebrows.
Xuanxuan nodded, then shook her head, "You can take off some parts, but if you can't do it for too long, the parasitic armor may die in two or three days."
This answer made the hunters frown. .
Some parts of the parasitic armor have become symbiotic with the cricket and have become part of her body, such as the butterfly wings. The remaining parts that can be removed also need to rely on her body to provide nutrients and cannot leave her body for a long time.
In other words, Xuanxu cannot equip other armor.
This parasitic armor is different from armor in the ordinary sense. Not only does it not affect Xuanxu's movements, it can even provide a considerable degree of protection. Help.
For example, the pair of gleaming butterfly wings can be spread out and flapped. Although it cannot fly directly with the cricket, it can have an effect similar to gliding, and it can also be used conveniently when flying in the air. force.
This makes her agility in complex terrain environments such as dense forests unparalleled. At least Gordon and the others cannot do such a thing as jumping between branches.
But the shortcomings are also obvious. The defensive performance is limited
In horizontal comparison, it is almost the same as the "Pillowfly Suit".
“Is there any way to strengthen this thing?” Anhil asked bluntly.
"Is there a way?" Just ask, if you consider your parasitic armor as a starting point, there are not many suitable development directions
Forget about heavy weapons and hunting bows. Your body shape is not suitable, and heavy crossbows are not good enough. You can’t withstand the recoil.”
After Anhil’s words, Xuanxu entered a state of despair.
She originally wanted to try the heavy crossbow. The residents of the Sea of Trees lacked such powerful long-distance attacks. Means.
Being glared at by Mrs. Sterling, Ancil had no choice but to say some good things.
"But you are also very compatible with some weapons, such as fucking. Bug stick, ordinary bug stick users can't flap their wings in the air and change directions like you. Maybe you can try using two swords.
As for long-range weapons"
"Xuanxu was simply born for the light crossbow! Gale interrupted Ancier, "Defensive performance?" What the hell are defensive properties? As long as they are not touched by monsters, they are nothing!
Look at my sister’s armor, it’s even brittle than yours when she takes off her pants! "
"If you take off your pants again, it will be immoral. "Anhil stabbed coldly.
"Don't talk! "Squeezing Anxil away, Gale continued to grab Xuanxu's shoulders and said: "Xuanxu remember what sister said, since you can't pursue a comprehensive approach, then pursue 'a little breakthrough'. This is my sister's creed!
Your little wings are particularly useful in complex environments, so let’s specialize in this area, desert? volcano? Snowy mountains? Isn’t it okay if we don’t take on the mission over there?
Let’s go into the woods! Are there too few hunting grounds with complex terrain?
Why does my sister say that you are suitable for light crossbow? Because light crossbow is the most flexible and changeable weapon. Different crossbows and different ammunition can adapt to almost any situation. It can be used for standing or guerrilla. It can be used as a loose weapon. It’s not impossible to pretend to be an avant-garde! "
"This last one is not allowed! Hilda quickly added.
Gail continued in an excited tone, "We have imagined a tactic. Sister, I cannot do it with my ability, but you, Xuanxu, may be able to implement it."
That's a three-dimensional attack!
Your ability to jump between tree branches is very flashy on a swordsman, but it is different with a light crossbow. You can get more shooting angles and more varied shooting positions. Vital points such as the back of the neck can also be easily hit.
After a hunt, the monster may not even see where you are, and the battle is over! "
Gordon scratched his chin. He had seen someone use a similar style before - the light crossbow user Lan of the Ryūliyuan Cross Team. That guy might not be able to move among the branches, but he could jump around. This is very consistent.
"Air combat light crossbow? "Anhil obviously thought in the same direction.
"You mean Longliyuan's aerial combat style?" Gale curled his lips, "It's a bit similar, but Xuxuan can obviously do it better, much better!"
Anhil fell into silence.
Although he felt unhappy, he had to admit that Gale's concept of "a little breakthrough" was more suitable for being a teacher. (End of this chapter)
