The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 198 [The Power of Chopping]
For the local residents of Faerun, [Slash] is indeed a very practical hand-to-hand technique, and there are many creatures (yes, creatures) that can be used. Some giant beasts and monsters can even use what is called [Great Slash] 】The super version of 【Chunpoetic Cut】.

But in fact, these so-called [Slash] are just a general term for similar effects. A large number of users don't even know or realize that they are using [Slash], because they basically rely on talents. Or the effect of [Slash] caused by instinctive actions.

It was the barbarians in ancient times who really summed up [Slashing with the Trend] into a combat skill, but it was the descendants of those barbarians, that is, today's humans, who inherited and carried forward it in the end.Although until today there are still many intelligent races such as orcs, barbarians, dwarves, giants, and even hobgoblins and other races claiming to have the unique skill of [Slash], but the real proficiency in this secret But there are only a small number of elite fighters among humans and elves.

This is a skill that combines strength and skill almost perfectly. With the help of special force techniques and footsteps, the attacker transforms the strength of the whole body into several attacks in an instant, striking the enemy in front of him at high speed.If you attack an enemy alone with [Clearance Slash], it will produce a power effect several times that of the usual one, resulting in huge damage.Of course, you can also attack multiple enemies in front of you. If the first enemy is killed before the end of the combo, the remaining hits can be accumulated on the second enemy, and so on.

The girl in front of William is a lucky one who has inherited the essence of [Slashing], of course, this is thanks to her having a good father and an ancient family with a long history - Timarand.The girl explained to William the essentials of each movement of [Slashing], and posed poses to demonstrate movements from time to time. It seemed that this was not the first time this girl was "good at being a teacher".Inadvertently, William saw the layers of calluses on the girl's sword-holding fingers, but he didn't notice it last night.

William didn't pay attention to combat skills at first, although he also wanted to see what the so-called combat skills in this world are, William paid more attention to the girl herself, maybe he didn't understand himself, why would he want to Accompanying the girl in the play "Wolf with a Big Tail".

Seeing the girl's seeming earnestness, William was in a trance, and couldn't help but start wandering.Was the dancing figure ever so hazy, just like the feelings of a boy, the spring spirit of a girl, with a sprouting heart?
"What are you in a daze for? You foolish boy!" A sullen shout brought William's thoughts back to reality. Obviously, the girl was quite upset about this and actually deserted when she was "teacher" Acting very angry, she stepped in front of William, stretched out a finger and pointed at William's "chest" (actually the girl wanted to touch his forehead, but William was a little taller, so she clicked It didn't go well, so I had to make do with it), "You actually lost your mind at this time, was your head kicked by the Lost beast? Do you know what I taught you? It's combat skills! Combat skills! You Brainless idiot!." Seeing the girl in front of him pointing at himself as if teaching his "little brother", William had a funny feeling of dislocation, she was such an innocent and lovely girl.

"Did you listen to me?" The girl who was addicted to "critics" snorted, handed the long sword to William and said, "Go! Do it again and see how much you have listened to."

Although he didn't listen carefully, with William's current ability, he only needs to read the general moves once to understand, and he can even understand and use them quickly. Therefore, William's demonstration of the movement essentials of [Following the Trend] is very standard. It is in place, although the movements are a bit slow, as slow as playing the popular version of Tai Chi (Tai Chi exercises?).

The girl was obviously very surprised at William's quick mastery of the standard movement of [Slashing], and her "stupid brother", the girl has spent several months of preaching, the little guy still can't "play" completely .Even if it was the girl herself, it’s okay if she wasn’t at the beginning. Although she was shocked by William’s "monstrousness", the girl still tried her best to look like this, and said sourly: "Huh! So slow! Let alone dealing with dangerous and cunning monsters, I am afraid that even a small mosquito cannot be killed. What a "

After all, the girl didn't have the nerve to say the word "idiot". If William was an idiot, what would become of herself and her brother?It's just that I don't know who this girl learned so much foul language from, but according to the old Delber's conversation, she is an elegant gentleman, even though she is a down-and-out gentleman.

The standard movements of [Slash] are very cumbersome, and many movements seem to be completely superfluous, and they are as awkward as they are done.William did it several times in a row before he could imprint these movements in his heart, instead of relying on his strong memory and coordination ability to copy them mechanically.

The movements of the drill became more and more smooth, and William still couldn't understand what the use of these movements was. Although William was already a master of martial arts, this obviously and general fighting rules (don't get me wrong, here refers to physics) rules) and things that don't match, but also can't figure it out.

The girl looked at William dancing the long sword and repeating the slow motion of [Slashing] over and over again. At first, she looked a little surprised, but gradually the girl's face changed, becoming more and more ugly, with nameless anger It was blazing, and she gritted her teeth with a black complexion and said in a deep voice: "Hold the sword in both hands, and perform these movements with your greatest strength!"

The girl used to swing the sword with one hand in the previous demonstration, and William repeated the practice with one hand, of course, when the girl mentioned it, William had to follow suit.William did a familiarization with both hands as required. When he swung the sword with pure physical strength (without bursting blood) for the second time, his expression changed suddenly, because he temporarily lost control of his body, and the long sword was like a sword. The wind cut through the air flow sharply, and the whole body was like a puppet controlled by an inexplicable force, and the whole set of movements was completed in an instant - [Slash]!
[Slashing] is a huge burden on the body. A strong human warrior who can deliver two blows is already very good. William doesn't know whether he has delivered five or six blows, because he has no time to pay attention to this. William's All the thoughts were put on regaining control of the body.Fortunately, every time he swung, the force would weaken a little bit. Before the next swing, William, who had exploded with vitality, finally dispelled the external force and regained control of his body. Similarly, [Slash] also stopped automatically.

The martial power in this world is indeed not useless, and the power of [Slash] in William's hands is terrifying, "It's actually the legendary sword energy, or stellar energy, no! These statements are not correct." William, whose skin was as blood-red as a cooked prawn, and the girl who was equally astonished stared at the five thick sword marks plowed on the ground, one of which was slightly deeper, which was obviously caused by two blows. the result of.

With a sound of "crash", the long sword in William's hand shattered, but it also woke up the dazed girl. She pointed at the blood-red William and said tremblingly, "You bastard, liar! You know how to [Slash], Did you deliberately look at me as a joke?"

After calming down a little bit, although his face was still a little scary, it was not as scary as before. William forced a smile and waved his hands: "No! Absolutely no such meaning! I was just now." I just wanted to say, "I didn't There’s no such thing as [Splitting], William, who just learned it just now, suddenly shut up. [Slashing] is extremely demanding on the body, and the movements are extremely cumbersome. Ordinary people may need several years of hard work if they want to practice well, but if they say that they learned it in one morning, no one will believe it.

William grabbed his head with his left hand, swung the long sword with only the handle left in his right hand, and said with a smirk: "Hehe, this sword is really not strong. That... I have practiced for several years before, but it has never been successful. This time Thanks haha!" Seeing that the girl had black lines on her forehead and fire from her nostrils, showing signs of going berserk, William hurriedly shut up, showing an "I'm innocent" look and continued to smirk.

"That. How about I teach you a few tricks as compensation to clear up my sins, okay?" William approached with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye, trying to use "bribery" to avoid "disaster".

The girl raised her handsome eyebrows, and said in a cold voice, "Huh! I don't care about you! You." The girl who was about to get angry suddenly showed a delicate little head from the door of the tent, and said with a sneaky smile: " Oops! Elder sister, you actually leaked the fighting skills handed down from the ancestors of our Timarand family to others casually. The crime is serious! Hehe, I want to tell my father!"

The little guy's intrusion made the girl lose her anger immediately, and she glared at William bitterly before looking at Old Delber with a guilty conscience.It seemed that the old man was really drunk. William made such a commotion just now, and the old man was still snoring wrapped in a blanket, with a posture of "not listening to the things around the bed".

Of course, Yasuna and Finiya were also awakened by the movement outside, but they just showed their heads at the door of the tent, and they were "driven" back by William's wave of his hand.

The little guy tried his best to put on a high-spirited demeanor, walked up to the girl swaggeringly, and looked up at his sister with his nostrils up. No matter how you look at it, there is no imposing manner, but it is childish and funny.The little guy cheerfully whispered: "Ah! My dear sister, you have made a big mistake. If you don't want your father to know, you have to promise me a few conditions. First, you are not allowed to call me so early every day." Get up and practice swords; second, oops! It hurts! It hurts! Let go, I was wrong, dear sister."
