Chapter 32 The Cold Beast Attacks
After the small fire was upgraded to an iron-making furnace, the effect was greatly improved.
The range of heating has expanded from the original ten meters to one hundred meters;
The ability to shock and kill has been greatly improved, but it is still unclear what this standard will be;
Coal can be burned directly to make iron;
The function of the small torch is still there;
And, most importantly, is the newly added special item Condensation Oil.
Burns when touched!
The memory of summoning a small fire for the first time and burning the counterfeit Xia Ding into ashes in an instant came to mind again. Xia Hong was instantly looking forward to the function of the fire condensing oil.
This fire-condensing oil is simply a perfect weapon for dealing with monsters!
To be honest, even though he has been to Redwood Ridge many times during this period, Xia Hong still felt a little guilty every time.
He was basically not afraid of the cold beasts he could come into contact with on the periphery, as more and more people came to the logging area in the camp, but he was still unsure about the weird ones.
Of course, small torches can also be used, but the problem is that the number of small torches is limited, and at best they can be held in hand to scare monsters. You can't expect the monsters to stand there and let them burn.
Moreover, the burning time of the small torch is limited, only fifteen minutes.
Condensation oil is different. The liquid is not only easy to carry, but also inconspicuous.
The most important thing is that it is harmless to humans and will ignite when touched.
These eight words alone are enough to make a big fuss.
As soon as the flames became smaller, the simple fire pit originally made of earth blocks turned into a circular stove with a diameter of more than one meter and a height of two meters.
"Hey, how did this fire become a stove?"
The first person to see it immediately exclaimed, attracting everyone to come and watch. Everyone who came close to the stove felt the warmth coming from the stove. When they looked at Xia Hong again, their eyes were obviously more fanatical.
When the Touxian cave suffered a disaster, the scene where Xia Hong summoned flames out of thin air was seen by only a few people, but through word of mouth, almost everyone in the camp knew about it.
But after all, most people just heard about it, and many people thought it was fabricated and didn't take it seriously.
But this time it was different. The bonfire turned into a furnace, and it was completed under everyone's eyes. This time, Xia Hong's status in everyone's hearts was once again greatly improved.
Of course Xia Hong would not explain anything.
Although it is not advisable to create gods, it depends on the situation.
In the current situation where the Great Summer Camp is on the verge of desperation at all times, a leader with powerful and mysterious methods can play an extremely important role in uniting the group and enhancing everyone's confidence in facing the future.
The people in the camp are actually not bad. Xia Chuan, Yuan Cheng and the seven people in the logging team have seen the power of the little torch and the force he showed when fighting the cold beast. Their enthusiasm for him is only higher than that of these people in front of them. .
Everyone in the summer camp had a concept in their minds:
Xia Hong is powerful and controls some mysterious power. Not only can he hunt cold beasts, but he can also defeat and repel even strange monsters. He is also generous and is willing to increase the crystal fruit quota for everyone so that everyone can enjoy it. He can eat enough; at the same time, he is also selfless and willing to take out the cold beast meat and share it with everyone to improve everyone's strength;
Following this concept, everyone reached a consensus:
Only when Xia Hong is the leader can he live longer and better.
Xia Hong doesn't have the ability to read minds, so he doesn't know what everyone is thinking, but from the way other people look at him, he can easily see two things:
One thing is that his status in the hearts of these people is constantly improving at a terrifying speed.
Another point is that everyone in the camp, whether it is his younger brother Xia Chuan and the logging team, or other ordinary people, ranging from middle-aged to children, gradually have a longing for life and hope for the future in their eyes.
…………
In the following days, Xia Hong did not lead the team to Redwood Ridge again.
Although after upgrading to an iron-smelting furnace, the average daily consumption of burning wood has doubled, consuming 4 points of wood every day, the wood resources currently in Xia Hong's hands are already overflowing.
470 units of wood resources are enough to consume for more than three months even if you don't go out. In addition to the crystal fruits accumulated some time ago, there are still more than 10,000 kilograms left, so if you don't go out in a short period of time, there is no problem at all. . Xia Hong also thought about going to Tashan to search to see if he could find the location of Dashi Camp and see how their situation was.
But thinking that the strange monster was probably nearby, I gave up.
First of all, although it is certain that Dashi Camp is on the other side of Tashan, each camp is very hidden. Even if he passes by, there is a high probability that he will not be able to find it. Even if he finds it, if nothing happens to the camp, , then he still can’t explain clearly at that time, which may easily cause conflicts.
Secondly, it was out of fear of that weird thing.
The first time, the opponent was probably hiding in the dark to control the fake Xia Ding, so strictly speaking, until now, Xia Honglian still doesn't know what that weird thing looks like.
Although there are ways to deal with the monster now, after all, I know too little about that monster, and if I contact it rashly, I will definitely suffer a loss.
Due to various reasons, Xia Hong could only be patient and stayed in the camp to lead everyone to practice while researching ways to deal with strange monsters.
"Practice Changquan with me. In addition to helping you improve the efficiency of absorbing the essence of cold beast meat, it also has a more important role, which is to improve your fighting ability!"
Next to the stove, the shirtless Xia Hong kept pumping his fists with a small amplitude, accompanied by the fierce fist wind, while explaining the essence of Taizu Changquan to the people surrounding him.
"No matter what martial arts, in the final analysis, there are two things to practice, one is reaction and the other is explosive power. These two are your greatest support and confidence when facing the enemy.
Reaction refers to predicting danger in advance. Take the cold beast as an example. Before it raises its claws, you can judge from which side it will attack and make a timely response, so that it can cause harm to you. Invulnerable.
Explosive power is the maximum force generated at the fastest speed in the shortest time. This is the strongest way to cause damage to the enemy. Whether it is with bare hands or with a weapon, the principle is the same. ”
Xia Hong's punch speed gradually increased, and the strong wind of the fist made the stove fan whistle. At the same time, he continued:
"Although the basic strength of the logging realm is five thousand kilograms, it is the basic strength under static conditions. Being able to lift something weighing five thousand kilograms does not mean that you can punch a five thousand kilograms fist.
When you are actually facing an enemy, due to body reactions and movement restrictions, it is difficult for you to exert a strength of five thousand kilograms, so you must continue to practice to continuously improve your muscles and get used to punching, so that you can exert your best of maximum strength. ”
"The greater the range of movements of the human body, the more muscles are mobilized, and the greater the impact on the speed and power of punches. Therefore, the four routines of Taizu Changquan Xiaozhan, Taizhan, Sanshou and Hezhan are the simplest It’s a short game.”
Although Xia Hong's punch moves quickly, the range of movement is limited to a square inch. Even so, the friction between the force of the punch and the air can still make a violent whirring sound.
"You haven't been practicing small combat routines for a long time now, so you can only use half of your basic strength at most. But as long as you practice more frequently, you can hit 80% of the power like me.
Once you have mastered Xiao Zhan, I will teach you the Tai Zhan routine, a three-in-one fist, kick, and waist. Not only can you punch 100% of the power at will, but when you practice it to a high level, you can even burst out with power that exceeds the limits of your body. ”
Xia Chuan and others nodded excitedly. They had all gone out with Xia Hong and had seen him demonstrate Xiao Zhan, Tai Zhan, and San Shou, so they knew how powerful this boxing technique was.
"Actually, the most powerful thing about Changquan is the cooperating soldiers..."
Dong Dong Dong…………
In the middle of Xia Hong's words, there was a sudden shaking of the ground beneath his feet. His expression suddenly changed and he looked up at the entrance of the cave.
Everyone in the camp surrounding the stove stood up in an instant and turned their heads to look at the entrance of the cave.
"Something is coming?"
"Such a big movement, seems to be a cold beast?"
"We sealed the entrance of the cave, how could the cold beast find out?"
"It's daytime now, if we are discovered by the cold beast, we will be doomed!"
…………
The faces of most people in the camp were suddenly filled with despair.
