Chapter 874 Your Own Defense Method
"Precision defense (GP)?" Feng Ying knew the term, but she didn't know it very well.
Gordon and Ansir looked at Hayata. In this team, if anyone was the best at precision defense, it would be Hayata.
The so-called precision defense does not refer to a specific move, but a general method.
At a critical moment and a critical angle, blocking or deflecting the monster's attack with relatively small force is the so-called precision defense.
Hayata's recent crazy obsession with the Gouqi Blade Slash and Iai Slash is the best example. Feng Ying's commonly used wireworm technique - fully charged defense is also a typical precision defense move.
In fact, Gordon has also studied this technique.
When facing monsters with less exaggerated size and strength, he is used to confronting the monster head-on, swinging his sword to smash the monster's attack, and then taking advantage of the situation to counterattack and suppress the monster.
Although it has not yet formed a fixed move, it can also be regarded as precision defense in a broad sense.
As for the courageous evasion (y times), and the slash that Hayata also often uses, they are a little different.
To be precise, these belong to precision dodges, but in terms of the results and core concepts, they are not much different, and it is not a bad idea to attribute them to precision defense.
"It is indeed too abstract to describe it with words alone." Altman raised his voice and shouted, "Gail, go get two shield axes for training."
"Yes!" Wearing a huge cat helmet, Gail, who was squatting in the corner like a mushroom, stood up "swoosh". He first subconsciously answered loudly, and then asked awkwardly: "Where to get it?"
"Training camp."
"That's so far away"
"Go for a run! Treat it as daily physical training!"
"Oh" Gail muttered and ran away.
Gordon looked at this scene and was a little surprised. In his impression, Miss Gail was a person who didn't obey discipline. Why was she so obedient today?
Anxier's face showed a rare gloating color, "When we were in the training camp, it was Instructor Altman who was in charge of discipline.
That rude woman who dressed casually and swore was the one beaten the most by the instructor.
Tsk, speaking of this guy, I almost forgot that I haven't "repaid" her for giving me a nickname last time.
I'll spend some money to find some people and send her a nickname. What should I call her? Gale with a cat head? Gale who doesn't dress properly?"
Feng Ying casually replied, "Gale of Nema?"
"That's not good," Hayata laughed dryly.
Anxier was silent for two seconds and nodded, "Although I don't understand why and it's a swear word. I guess it won't be kept in the end, but it's good to disgust that guy.
Feng Ying, thank you on her behalf."
"Focus!" Altman scolded with a dark face.
He only realized now that the guys in front of him, whose strength and record were not inferior to those of the old upper hunters, were still young people in their twenties who acted erratically.
Feng Ying and the others quickly shut up and stood up.
Taking a deep breath and adjusting his mood, Altman looked at Feng Ying again, "Before Gale brings the training shield axe, let me see your defense level first, put up the shield!"
Gordon and the others quickly stepped aside, leaving Feng Ying alone.
Feng Ying shuddered as she watched the burly old hunter take down the gunpowder and shield from the weapon hook behind him.
Will this old guy give her a dragon-blasting cannon on the spot? ? !
Fortunately, he didn't. Altman himself was a person who valued rules, and he certainly wouldn't violate the iron rule that hunters' weapons could not be used against people.
He put the gunpowder on the ground beside him, thought about it, and put down the shield.
Before Feng Ying could breathe a sigh of relief, Altman said coldly, "Get ready."
Feng Ying quickly squatted and put up the shield, lowered her center of gravity, and entered a defensive posture.
Altman glanced at Feng Ying's defensive posture, and he knew that someone had adjusted the action specifically for Feng Ying.
The center of gravity was lower, and the shield was tilted back at a more obvious angle. This posture helped her, who was petite, to stabilize her defense, but it required more strength and was more risky.
For the same attack, if the conventional shield-holding defensive posture could not withstand it, she could use appropriate step-backs, jump back to relieve the force, and even be knocked away, which might not be a bad thing.
But Feng Ying's center of gravity was extremely low, close to a squatting defensive posture, and she could hardly retreat, which was equivalent to exchanging flexibility for defensive stability.
If the defensive posture was broken, she might be beaten to death on the ground.
If the adjustment of some movement details could eliminate the advantages brought by body size, excellent defenders would not be almost all big guys.
Small people are not suitable for hard resistance, and this child must be made aware of this.
Altman walked in front of Feng Ying who was holding the shield.
Gordon, who was watching, thought that the old instructor would charge and shoulder-butt or something. With that kind of physique and that kind of super-heavy equipment, even a big wild boar king could knock him over.
But he didn't do that. Instead, he raised his foot and stomped on the edge of Feng Ying's shield with all his strength.
The force of this kick may not be as strong as the attacks of those large monsters, but the tricky angle made Feng Ying very uncomfortable, and her body shook immediately.
Altman didn't give Feng Ying a chance to breathe and adjust, and stomped on her again mercilessly. Feng Ying, whose center of gravity was broken, sat down on the ground.
Altman looked down at her from a high position and said in a cold tone: "Get up, continue, you can use the Kinsect this time."
Feng Ying bit her lip and put up the shield again, and Altman also raised his feet again.
There was no difference in the result. Xiang Chong's iron worm silk helped her block one more kick, but that was all.
Feng Ying once again sat down on the ground in disgrace.
Hayata looked a little distressed and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. Feng Ying wasn't that unbearable that she couldn't bear this little setback.
Gordon was lost in thought, and he somewhat understood the purpose of Instructor Altman's doing this.
If we were to be like Ted, a "standard-sized" defender with a height of over two meters and a weight of a hundred and dozens of kilograms, he would not be swayed by Altman's kicks, even if his center of gravity shifted slightly. It can also be adjusted back instantly.
More powerful attacks can also be quickly adjusted by jumping back.
But Feng Ying was too small and too light.
The defensive skills Shui Yun taught her are of course useful, and the existence of skills and wireworm skills can make up for the shortcomings to a certain extent.
But flaws are flaws.
Keeping the center of gravity low and hard-carrying defense can only be used for emergencies. Frequent use will cause problems sooner or later.
"Are you aware of your problem?" Altman asked Feng Ying.
Feng Ying got up from the ground and nodded, "In the standard defensive posture, my weight is too light and I can easily be knocked away by monsters.
With a low center of gravity in a defensive stance, I was less likely to be knocked away, but since it was difficult to adjust my pace to release my force, my defense would soon be broken in the face of continuous attacks. "
Speaking of this, the shield on Feng Ying's right arm drooped a little.
"I'm not fit for defense"
A smile appeared on Altman's face, "That's wrong, what you are not suitable for is withstanding defense, which is blocking in the traditional sense. No matter how hard you work, you won't get far on this path.
But precision defense is a completely different direction.
Size doesn't matter, explosive power, instant judgment of timing and angles are the keys to precise defense.
This is your defense. "
Ps.
As for the so-called "detours", the main characters in this book have all gone through them. After all, detours are inevitable in the process of growth, Gordon's substandard accumulation, Ancil's mistakes, and Hayata's fanaticism.
These things that appear to be faults later can help them get through a period of time.
Feng Ying's growth is also similar. In the early stage, she was brainless, and later she and Shui Yun learned defensive skills. The insect defense was a tricked version of GP.
The heavy weapon GP in this book is a very high-end skill, and it is impossible for Feng Ying to learn it from the beginning, but now, the time is almost here.
From now on, more than one person in the team will "ding"
