Ultraman: I'm just a scientist

Chapter 723 Farming and Warfare
"Do you know what the highest level of fishing is?"

Duanmu Ci said this to Kirisaki who was standing beside him in a very serious tone.

Kirisaki glanced at his bucket, which was already full of fish.

"Will it be caught soon?"

Duanmu Ci shook his head: "It seems that you are still far from the highest realm. Look at my bucket!"

Hearing this, Kirisaki stretched his neck and leaned over to take a look at Duanmu Ci's bucket.

Well, it fits the name of a bucket because there is only water in it, not a single fish.

"This is?"

Duanmu Ci: "There are fish in the water, but no fish in your heart. This is the highest realm of fishing."

Kirisaki coughed lightly, then said, "If you don't mind, Brother Duanmu, I can give you half of the fish."

Hearing this, Duanmu Ci's eyes widened on the spot, and he said in disbelief: "What do you mean?"

"Are you doubting what I say?"

"I'm telling you, this isn't a matter of fish. Would I be short of these fish? Do you think I look like someone who's short of fish?"

After saying these words, Duanmu Ci couldn't help but take a look at the fish in Kirisaki's bucket and sighed: "Forget it, forget it, you mean well, I will just accept it reluctantly."

"I want the plump ones!"

Kirisaki: “…”

They are on holiday.

Many people believe that heroes don't get holidays.

Indeed, many heroes have no holidays and work on a 007 basis. Simply put, if they are needed to play, they have to play.

But they are not traditional heroes, but scientists!
Scientists can choose not to have holidays, or they can choose to have holidays.

Of course, this time it was forced.

It was an order issued by Zoffy.

Although Zoffy usually does not manage them directly, strictly speaking, the highest authority in the entire Kingdom of Light is the Space Guard. As the highest person in charge of the Space Guard, Zoffy can indeed give orders to anyone.

Of course, the main purpose is to let them take a break and not cause trouble.

Because the Kingdom of Light has detected that the chaotic power of this universe is beginning to become unstable and may erupt at any time.

This may be due to the fact that Ultra King has recovered.

After all, it was King Ultra's magic that sealed Grimmd before. Now that King Ultra is resurrected, except for Toba Kuraba who has already integrated King Ultra's energy into one, the power of King Ultra scattered throughout the multiverse automatically gathered into King Ultra's body.

Because of this, the seal suddenly weakened a lot, causing a large amount of chaotic power to leak out. Now the energy of the entire universe has begun to shift towards the direction of chaotic power.

So why do they force two top scientists, Duanmu Ci and Kirisaki, to take a holiday even though this is the case?
The reason is very simple. Hikari has produced some "by-products" from his research on Zeta, and these "by-products" are on their way to Earth. That thing is to ensure that the user's brain is sufficiently relaxed, allowing the user's brain to have a period of bursting with inspiration.

There is no need to say how important this thing is to scientists. Duanmu Ci and Kirisaki are scientists with overflowing inspiration. Using this "by-product", they can come up with things that are ahead of their times in minutes.

But as it is said, there is a limitation that the brain must be sufficiently relaxed before it can be used.

It's not that you need to completely empty your brain, but you just need to avoid overusing your brain for a period of time.

However, they usually overuse their brains. If they stop for two seconds, they can't help but think of some new scientific research directions or new inventions.

Then Zoffy forced the two of them to take a forced vacation.

It was for this reason that Duanmu Ci found that without the help of technology, he couldn't even catch a single fish.

"Did you cheat?"

After successfully getting half of the fish from Kirisaki, Duanmu Ci suddenly asked.

“How did you catch so many fish without technology?”

Kirisaki's expression was extremely innocent, as if he had received a lot of newbie benefits, making a bunch of hard-working veteran new players envious.

"I don't know what's going on, but the fish just love to bite my hook."

"And aren't we now completely banned from discussing topics related to technology?"

Duanmu Ci rubbed his temples. Other things were fine, but it was too torturous to resist thinking about technology.

Their brains have long been highly trained, with all kinds of new inspirations emerging at every moment. The difficulty level of this requirement is probably equivalent to asking an old pervert who has abstained from sex for a month to watch a group of sexy beauties posing in front of him, teasing them from time to time, and then asking them to see through the red skull.

This difficulty level is really too much.

So the two of them could only find various things to divert their attention and help stop thinking.

But just now, Duanmu Ci almost started thinking about technology, how to make the fish take the bait one by one.

If fishing techniques don’t work, it’s not difficult to solve it with technology.

But I can't think too much about it.

This is not the way to commit sins!

"How about we practice boxing?"

Kirisaki suddenly made a suggestion.

"Every time I train with Taro, I forget about other things and focus on fighting techniques. Could this be the reason why professional fighters often have poor brains?"

Duanmu Ci was unable to think too much at the moment, and when he heard this he instinctively thought that there should be no problem.

"Okay, let's practice first!"

I have to say that Kirisaki has been quite confident recently, even to the point of being a little inflated.

After training more with Taiga and the others, Kirisaki did gain a lot of new insights into fighting skills and also regained a lot of confidence.

Now he even dares to challenge Duanmu Ci.

Of course, he instinctively thought that although Duanmu Ci's fighting ability was strong, he was essentially a scientist. Even if his fighting ability was stronger, it should not be much stronger.

The two walked to a relatively open place, and Duanmu Ci's mind suddenly flashed with what kind of scientific equipment could be placed in this open space, and how to design it to create a "fortress" here to resist monster attacks.

In an instant, Duanmu Ci thought a lot and almost touched the red line. Fortunately, he reacted in time and quickly turned his attention to other directions, muttering "Wu Wu Wu Wu Wu" in his mouth.

No distracting thoughts, no distracting thoughts!
Relying on their remaining consciousness, Duanmu Ci and Kirisaki saluted each other, which meant that the competition had begun and any moves they made from now on would not be considered sneak attacks.

The first to attack was Kirisaki. He suddenly moved forward at a very fast speed without any hesitation.

Then he punched Duanmu Ci in the chest. Fists aimed at the chest would usually be blocked, because when a normal person is ready to fight, the large area in front of the chest is the easiest to defend.

There is a high probability that he will not hit Duanmu Ci with a punch like this.

Even a newbie in fighting would think this is a waste of energy, but he still chose to do so.

Is this completely brainless?
Do not!
On the contrary, this was the conclusion he came to after careful calculation.

Because he is going to use a move that would not be used in normal combat.

When a normal person is attacked by the enemy in the chest, the first reaction is to block with the fist to the left or right or downward.

If you block upwards, you will most likely throw the opponent's fist into your face, and that would be a loss of the greater for the smaller.

He was going to use the force of the parry and his own forward momentum to do a front handspring, and when his head was facing the ground, his heels would drop from the sky and land on his heels. This was a self-sacrificing kick!

Moreover, since the defender's hand has already been used to block the previous attack, it is not easy to retract the hand, resulting in weak defense and inability to withstand the kick.

This is a combo that is calculated after thinking and can catch the opponent off guard.

But when he actually used it, he found that the situation was completely different from what he had imagined.

Kirisaki's punch actually hit Duanmu Ci directly.

But he had already made the preparatory moves, and now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. He could not stop his movements forcibly, so while Duanmu Ci used the Tai Chi hip rotation method to reduce the force of his fist, he did a front flip and performed a heel drop. Although it was a little off, it could still cause damage as long as it hit.

But who knew that at this time Duanmu Ci's hand would suddenly press directly on Kirisaki's waist, and then he would exert force from within his body and push him hard, pushing him forward a distance.

This not only prevented his heel from hitting Duanmu Ci, but he was also thrown out and rolled on the ground for several circles, becoming covered in dust and dirt.

Not to mention, even Duanmu Ci himself was a little surprised.

"Kirisaki, what are you doing?"

"Do you have to be so clever in a fight with me?"

After Kirisaki got up, he simply dusted off his body and looked at Duanmu Ci speechlessly.

This is the only way to fight him. How can you win normally?
Although he thought his fighting skills were still slightly weaker than Duanmu Ci's, he still wanted to win.

In close combat, the strong never necessarily wins.

He also has the possibility of winning!

then.

Once again, many strange and bizarre fighting methods were used.

But no matter what kind of fighting methods or combo skills are used, they will be broken by Duanmu Ci in some strange ways when they are used.

Then he discovered something.

It seems that Duanmu Ci’s fighting skills are very diverse!

The traditional ones include Bajiquan, Xingyiquan, Tongbeiquan, Big and Small Hongquan, Nanhongquan, Wing Chun, Praying Mantis, Tai Chi, Baguazhang, Tan Leg, and Changquan.

Kung Fu, boxing, karate, capoeira, Muay Thai, French kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, and all that kind of stuff.

The most important thing is not the moves, but the timing!

Each of his moves was perfect and perfect, and each one could hit Kirisaki accurately, as if Kirisaki had actively bumped into him.

After being brutally tortured for a long time, Kirisaki was a little confused.

Is Duanmu Ci really a scientist?

This fighting skill, maybe he learned it from Dugu Qiubai? How come he knew how to break the move before I even made a move?

Moreover, he used various moves to break the moves, instead of just using ordinary punches and kicks.

By the end of the fight, Kirisaki had given up on all those fancy moves and instead displayed his basic skills as a fighter. Every punch and kick he made was very solid, and his mind, skills, and body were all pushed to the limit.

He thought, there is always a chance that he could actually hit Duanmu Ci once?

However, it does not.

It would be fine if he couldn't hit Duanmu Ci with his fancy moves, but he couldn't hit him with a serious move either.

What should I do?
A life-and-death fighting style that trades injuries for injuries?

Kirisaki himself did not notice that his goal changed from winning the battle in the beginning to causing some obstacles to Duanmu Ci later, and then to considering a single touch as a win, and finally to the point where he would even resort to a life-and-death strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries in order to touch Duanmu Ci once!
However, it was meaningless. Even if he wanted to exchange injury for injury, he would only hurt himself in the end. He took the initiative to offer himself to be beaten, so Duanmu Ci of course took action. After that, he wanted to catch Duanmu Ci, but found that Duanmu Ci turned into a loach again and cleverly avoided his various methods.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Unable to defeat him, Kirisaki suddenly felt that he should face up to the gap in strength between himself and Duanmu Ci, so he called for a stop.

"If we keep fighting like this, there's no way to tell who will win!"

Duanmuci: "???"

Are you sure you can't tell the winner?

"However," Kirisaki said, "To show respect to my seniors, I lose this round. Fishing and fighting are now tied at 1-1."

Duanmu Ci also retreated tactically when he heard this, with a look of disbelief on his face: "This young man! Damn it!"

Kirisaki didn't respond, and changed the subject naturally, asking, "Brother Duanmu, you just used so many different styles of fighting techniques. Are you trying to tell me that there is no high or low in fighting techniques, only people have high or low?"

Duanmu Ci was not in a state of wanting to use his brain, so he naturally changed the subject.

"Actually, I didn't have so many thoughts, it was just that my body started moving on its own."

"I am using Noah's fighting skills, which can effectively predict the opponent's next move through various subtle signs, and naturally use fighting skills to counterattack."

"Because I can predict the opponent's fighting skills before they use them, it's like you're actively handing me the flaw."

"Under this premise, using any existing fighting techniques will not make any difference."

"Of course, to say that there is no strong or weak in fighting skills is just a correct but meaningless statement."

"If it's a free-fighting match, then the fighting techniques that can be used in free-fighting will naturally have an advantage. In a boxing match, boxing is naturally more appropriate. In a Muay Thai ring, Muay Thai is better. Everyone says Taekwondo is weak, but in Taekwondo's own ring it is still the best fighting technique."

"Fighting skills only provide you with a fighting technique that conforms to the current rules. If you really want to become a master, you can only find your own way!"

If Duanmu Ci's opponents were the Leo brothers, his Noah fighting skills would not have much advantage, because fighters of Leo's level had long since broken away from the constraints of simple fighting skills.

Kirisaki was thoughtful and had some vague understanding, but it was not very clear yet.
