Chapter 126 Bamboo Bow Test
One arrow hit the target. According to Zhou Xu’s eyesight, he could see clearly from a distance of almost ten meters.
The first time he fired a bow, although he did not hit the target, the arrow was still close to the inner ring. Zhou Xu was personally quite satisfied with this result, at least it was not embarrassing.
However, this test has obviously just begun. Being able to ensure power and stability at a distance of ten meters can only be said to be too basic. If it cannot even do this, then this bamboo bow does not exist. It's necessary.
Let Zhang Xiaoshan, who was aside, carry the target and walk another ten steps. After all, he was still a novice. Zhou Xu didn’t dare to push him too far. He tested the distance of 5 meters and 5 meters and it was enough. Mi, he doesn't have much confidence in this.
An arrow shot five meters away, relying on the vision given to him by the 'Eye of Insight', allowed Zhou Xu to see the target clearly. After a few arrows, he also found some feelings, and had a sense of getting better.
At the same time, the movement of bending the bow and setting the arrow has become a bit smoother invisibly.
Unknowingly, the distance between the archery targets has reached fifty meters.
Thanks to the step-by-step process, Zhou Xu has not been embarrassed so far in the test. Of course, he has not hit the target accurately.
But he doesn't care about this. He has very low requirements for himself, as long as the arrow does not miss the target.
For now, this arrow is still powerful!
After that, the arrow target naturally moved further and further away, and the pressure on Zhou Xu also increased.
He feels like he is riding a tiger now...
I originally thought that a bamboo bow would have an effective range of fifty meters as long as its power was ensured, right?
To be honest, he did not have high expectations for the bamboo bow at the beginning, but at this moment, the bamboo bow made by Zhuang Mengdie was undoubtedly completely beyond his expectations.
At this moment, the archery target is about to be placed at a position of fifty-five meters.
"..."
While Zhang Xiaoshan ran to set the target, Zhou Xu lowered his head and broke the bamboo bow in his hand, as if to confirm that it was enough. Did it feel loose after shooting so many arrows?
But actually I was thinking...
[Damn, with that fifty-meter arrow, I was already trying my luck. If I keep testing, I’m afraid I’ll miss the target? 】
[But judging from the arrow just now, it is obviously still powerful, so it cannot be justified without testing it. ]
[If I break this bow now...]
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu calmly exerted a little more force.
【My, it’s so strong! 】
In the absence of glue, Zhuang Mengdie was able to use a mortise and tenon structure to assemble a bamboo bow that was so strong and up to standard in strength. It definitely deserves the word "genius".
At this moment, Zhou Xu didn't know whether he should cry or laugh when he saw that the structure was still tight and there was no loose bamboo bow at all.
Just when Zhou Xu had such a headache, Zhou Chongshan and Li Ce, who had nothing to do and took over the camp patrol duty, walked over from a distance in a leisurely manner.
As soon as he saw them, Zhou Xu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly waved to them to come over.
“You two are here just in time. Mengdie has made a new weapon and is testing it now. It’s just time for you two to come and try it out.”
As for the fact that their tribe is developing new weapons. Zhou Chongshan and Li Ce undoubtedly knew about this matter. Now that they heard that testing of the new weapon had begun, their eyes lit up and they ran over quickly.
Zhou Xu took advantage of the situation and put the bamboo bow in his hand into Li Ce's hand, who was walking a step faster. Then he talked to Li Ce about the use of the bamboo bow and some of the skills he had accumulated in previous tests. During this period, Zhou Chongshan also listened carefully.
After finishing speaking, Li Ce was naturally a little eager to try.
"That's the archery target, right?"
Li Ce was obviously not used to this new vocabulary, but he remembered it for the time being.
"That's right, just hit the target with an arrow."
The target was placed almost fifty-five meters away. Zhou Xu had no intention of moving him closer, but just came over Li Ce and Zhou Chongshan undoubtedly did not expect this problem.
After getting a positive answer from Zhou Xu, Li Ce nodded and began to bow and arrow.
As early as when he listened to their leader's explanation just now, he had already tested the strength of the bow string, and now it doesn't lose its strength at all.
After setting up the arrow and shooting the bow smoothly, just like Zhou Xu when he first shot an arrow, a common problem for novices is that they like to aim for a while and are unsure, and the same is true for Li Ce.
Then he loosened his fingers, and the arrow flew out immediately, and in the blink of an eye, it missed the target fifty-five meters away...
This result can be said to be completely within reach. As expected, it was the first time for a novice to use a bow and arrow. At a distance of fifty-five meters, if the first arrow could hit the target, unless he was extremely talented, it would be impossible for him to say that this arrow had no luck at all.
Li Ce, as the person involved, also disagreed, and he did not feel that he could hit the target with one arrow.
After the arrow passed, he glanced at Zhou Chongshan who was standing next to him.
“Come and try?”
Zhou Chongshan, who was on the side, had long been eager to give it a try. Now that he heard this, he naturally would not be polite to Li Ce. He took the bamboo bow and weighed it casually. He had already seen Li Ce's bow and arrow skills. Zhou Chongshan's posture was basically familiar to him.
As he was bending the bow and setting the arrow, he heard a sound of "whoosh", and the flying arrow broke through the air and suddenly sank into the target.
This scene, not to mention Li Ce, even Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment.
“Hiss——”
[I know that he has the talent of ‘Weapon Master’, but this is what he does now? Isn't this a bit too much? 】
As this thought flashed through his mind, Zhou Xu glanced at Li Ce subconsciously.
I originally thought that Zhou Chongshan’s move might arouse Li Ce’s competitive spirit, but little did he know that Li Ce was actually sober.
Although he once defeated Zhou Chongshan, he mainly relied on the strengthening of mantra and psychological offensive, so he knew in his heart that Zhou Chongshan's hard power was actually superior to him.
Now that he was defeated, Zhou Chongshan's shot that hit the target with an arrow shocked him, but he had no interest in competing with the opponent.
Especially after their leader named him Li Ce and expressed the expectations represented by this name, Li Ce's thoughts and focus began to slowly shift.
Naturally, he had no interest in competing with Zhou Chongshan on this matter.
While he was talking, the target had been moved to a distance of sixty meters. When Zhou Chongshan saw this, he was unambiguous. He recalled the previous feeling in his mind, and another arrow hit the target again!
The update is here, and I would like to thank the book friend ‘who came up with this name’ for the reward!
