Chapter 214 Sword Shadow Curtain
cpa300_4(); "Yes."
Lei responded and walked towards the river, but after jumping on the first pumice stone, he looked back at Fengyun with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.
Fengyun nodded slightly, and gave him an encouraging look.
He knew why Ray did what he did.
He once told him in detail about the various difficulties and obstacles encountered along the way from Eagle Falls to Lei Ze, as well as the methods and strategies to deal with them.
He would tell him this, first to satisfy Lei's curiosity, and second, because he felt that sooner or later he would walk out of Zombie Mountain and go to the outside world. Knowing in advance what he would encounter on the road would make him mentally prepared.
I didn't expect that it would actually help Lei now.
Ray's feet bounced lightly on the bank and he hopped over to the first pumice stone.
The soldiers on the shore immediately cast their eyes on him, paying attention to his every move.
Even if they didn't guess that Bao Lei crossed the river first to explore the way so that they could prepare in advance, his actions still instinctively attracted their attention.
The purpose of violence is still achieved.
After Lei's foot touched the pumice stone, he didn't stop there, and immediately jumped up and fell towards another pumice stone. However, Feng Yun could clearly feel that he was getting nervous at this time.
He was not surprised by this at all.
According to his experience, knifefish generally don't attack people when they jump on the first pumice stone. It needs a process of finding prey, but their reaction speed is very fast, and they will take action in a very short time.
Fengyun's suggestion to Lei is this, if you want to be safe, it is best to start paying attention to the surrounding situation when jumping from the first pumice stone, lest the saury suddenly appear and be in a hurry.
But Ray's luck seems to be very good this time.
He was not attacked on the second pumice stone, and even up to the sixth pumice stone, no knifefish emerged.
Seeing this situation, Fengyun not only did not relax. Instead, there was a little nervousness.
Based on what he knew about knifefish, they would never release anyone who crossed the river. There could only be one reason for their delay in attacking.
They are gathering strength. Prepare for a more violent attack, and try to kill the prey in one shot.
But soon, the tension on Feng Yun disappeared.
He was nervous not because Lei would be violently attacked by the knifefish at some point in the future, but because he was worried that Lei would let his guard down.
If he has been on high alert. Pay attention to the surrounding situation, with his ability, even if the saury fish gathered and launched a fierce attack on him, he should be able to resist it.
After Lei jumped onto the seventh pumice stone, his forward speed suddenly increased sharply, like a pinball, rising up as soon as it fell on each stone, and flew towards the opposite bank of the river.
Fengyun immediately showed a smile of approval.
Ray was right.
The speed of the knifefish in the water is indeed fast, but it wants to be faster than the full gallop of a totem warrior.
It is also more difficult.
If Lei speeds up suddenly, he will disrupt the plans of the saury fish, and even throw them off directly.
After all, saury is still very dangerous. It would be great if he could successfully cross the river without any contact with them.
What happened below also proved that Ray's strategy was accurate.
Not long after his speed increased suddenly, streaks of silver light began to burst out of the water and shot at him, the swordfish finally couldn't hold back anymore.
However, if you look closely, you will find that most of the swordfish that broke out of the water are located behind him. And far away from him.
His strategy of sudden acceleration paid off, leaving the knifefish army behind by surprise, making their attacks less of a threat to him.
Lei immediately reached out and grabbed the knife, and swung it around his body quickly. Due to the extremely fast speed, in the blink of an eye, a layer of knife shadow was wrapped around his body, forming a white curtain.
With the passage of time, the thickness of the knife shadow is still increasing.
None of the swordfish flying towards him could touch his body, and all of them were blocked by the sword shadow curtain. Was bounced and flew back.
Protecting the body with a knife is one of Bao's key training items. The purpose is to protect himself from being hurt when he is shot by an arrow.
In order to test the effect, after the warriors of the Yan Snake Tribe practiced for a period of time, Bao would let people shoot arrows at them.
Of course, although Bao was very strict with the soldiers, he would not be so disregarding their lives.
At the beginning, the arrowhead was worn out, and the bow used was not very strong. Even if it was shot, unless it was really unlucky and hit a vital point, it would not cause too much damage.
However, as time went by, the test became more dangerous. First, the strength of the bow became stronger and stronger, and then the arrows were worn down less and less until the normal arrows were used. Great damage, even loss of life.
And that's not the end of this training.
In the end, he would test the best warriors in the tribe with the best archery, even himself.
Bao also knows that not everyone can survive this level of test, and those who can be selected as the final round of training objects are the best.
Lei's forward speed did not slow down, but accelerated, and it seemed that he was not affected by the knifefish attack at all.
In the process of flying to the other side of the river, if the distance between the pumice stones is relatively close, he will directly jump over one and jump to the farther one.
For Lei's performance, Fengyun was not surprised at all.
The reason is very simple.
He was once selected by Bao, accepted the final round of tests, passed, and performed very well.
Although the saury's attacks were fast and there were a lot of them, they still couldn't compare with the arrows shot by the good archers of the Yan Snake Tribe.
The attack of knifefish is very sharp, but they also have a shortcoming, that is, lack of strength.
They are relatively small in size, even if they are fast, they can increase their attack power, but they are far less impactful than the arrows shot by archery masters.
In other words, as long as Lei can protect himself thoroughly and prevent the swordfish from directly touching his body, they will not have much impact on his actions when they hit the sword shadow screen.
The first wave of attacks failed, and the saury fish no longer talked about any strategy, and jumped out of the water one after another, shooting at the laser.
The saury leaped out of the water, reflecting magnificent colors under the sunlight of the rising sun, revealing a soul-stirring beauty.
However, none of the soldiers standing on the bank watching the Leidu River felt this way, and their expressions were very serious.
They know very well how terrible the consequences will be if they are touched by these beautiful-looking swordfish.
Lei is worthy of being an excellent fighter who can pass the final test of the storm. The defensive ability of the knife shadow curtain is excellent, even when moving at high speed, there is no trace of flaws.
No matter how many saury fish came out of the water, to him, they were like floating clouds in the wind, unable to have any obvious influence on him at all.
After a while, Lei's feet landed on the opposite bank of the Pumice River. Although there were some aggressive swordfish flying ashore to attack him, the result would not change.
"You have seen how Lei crossed the river. Now move immediately, the speed must be fast, these stones will not always float on the water, if the speed is slow, you are still in the river, if the stone sinks, you will die gone."
Bao waved to the soldiers again and again, signaling them to cross the river quickly.
The soldiers immediately moved.
They all jumped onto the pumice stones and jumped to the opposite bank.
Fengyun didn't cross the river in a hurry, but stood on the bank, bent down and picked up a lot of soil from the ground, squeezed it vigorously, and turned them into small mud balls.
His gaze stayed on the soldiers who crossed the river and were being attacked by knifefish.
Although Bao had said not long ago that he had to rely on his own ability to cross the river, no one could help him, but Feng Yun didn't care.
If someone is in distress, he will still help.
He knew very well how difficult it was for these fighters to get to this point, and how much sweat and blood they had put in.
If you stick to one sentence and refuse to save them, Fengyun will not be able to do it.
Even if you have to die, it should be more valuable to die than to die under the attack of these knifefish.
The mud ball in Fengyun's hand was not thrown by him in the end.
All the fighters successfully crossed the Pumice River.
Only then did Fengyun truly understand Bao's painstaking efforts.
His training for the soldiers is very strict, it is not an exaggeration to call it cruel, but after this kind of training, the soldiers have gained a strong ability to survive.
He has personally experienced the attack power of the knifefish, and it is definitely not bad, but the soldiers all resisted it.
Although some people were injured during the process of crossing the river, they were all minor injuries such as scratches and did not pose a great threat to them.
This situation obviously fell into Mulanzhi's eyes, and she couldn't help but smile.
The witch asked her to follow Fengyun back to the Flame Snake Tribe to seek support. She didn't have much hope at first, because under the current circumstances, the Flame Snake Tribe would need to take a very big risk to send people to support, so she might not agree.
Even though Wu later agreed and sent people, she still had doubts about the role they could play.
This time the Yan Snake tribe didn't send many people, only less than three hundred people.
In her opinion, such a small number of people to deal with the large and powerful Black Crow tribe is simply a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to play any big role.
However, their performance in crossing the river made her change her view of them, and it also made her look forward to the role they could play in the battle against the Black Crow Tribe.
A small number of people does not mean poor strength, just like the King Beast, even if there is only one, it can easily destroy a huge herd of beasts.
Of course, these fighters who followed Fengyun and Baotou to support the Baicao tribe were incomparable to King Beast, but they were not alone in number.
Obviously, each of them possesses above-standard strength, adding up to a force that no one dares to ignore. (To be continued.)
