Chapter 82 Squash
"David, what did the Titan consortium say?" Myron asked immediately after seeing David.
"Myron, David, don't talk about it here, we'll talk about it when we go back!" Jim was more calm, he reminded aloud.
Because of David's performance just now, coupled with the invitation of the director of the Titan Foundation, he has attracted everyone's attention.
"It's really boring, there are still people who haven't finished the answers over there, why don't we go play squash!" Myron looked around and suggested.
No one here except him has tried squash.
At the same time, although the challenge of the Ives Soldiers has ended, the people answering the questions are still continuing. Some people who have not participated in the answering questions just now also choose the answering activities.
"Myron, you just hit four goals in a row, watch me beat you!" De Quincy said quietly.
"De Quincy, I didn't play well, I really want to go back and find a place to compare!" Myron immediately shouted in disapproval.
"Let's go and play!" Jim ignored the two this time and said, pulling up David and Daly.
The small circle of five people walked towards the sixteen transparent room, and before the transparent room, the people inside just ended.
"Who will come first?" Myron had no chance, so he was the most idle, looking at a few people and asked.
"I'll come first!" Jim said as he walked towards the sixteen-sided transparent room.
Jim made a mistake on the tenth, but it was a decent result.
David can also see that this should be the reason why Jim often uses hot weapons, and the dynamic vision is better.
Then Daly hit a nine-ball turnover, and De Quincy hit a seven-ball turnover.
Although De Quincy only hit seven goals, he looked at Myron with disdain, making Myron angry and helpless.
"David, it's your turn!" Jim reminded with a smile.
David was about to step forward, but was stopped by Myron.
"David, you must be careful not to observe the bouncing ball when you hit the ball, but to observe the impact surface of the ball in advance, so that you can respond in a more timely manner!" Myron enthusiastically taught David how to play squash.
David nodded, which he hadn't thought about.
I thought it was enough to just follow the ball, but I didn't expect that there would be skills.
"David, Myron's squash level is not high, but what he said is correct. Of course, this is not what he summed up. When every beginner touches squash for the first time, the teacher will say this!" Jim said with a smile.
"Jim, why do I feel so uncomfortable when you talk!" Myron said with a smile and pushed Jim.
David entered the sixteen-sided transparent room, holding a racket in his hand.
He suddenly moved in his heart, and the Shadow Servant who had been not far from his side flew above his head, looking at the entire sixteen-sided transparent room from the perspective of God.
He focused a little on the Shadow Servant, and the rest of his attention was on the orb that was about to appear under his feet.
The sphere appeared suddenly and quickly, and the white light flew to the transparent wall beside it in a flash.
David's mind on the Shadow Servant was clearly seen. From this God's perspective, the trajectory of the ball was completely seen by him.
At this time, he also discovered that the ability to practice sniper calculation and analysis before is equally useful here.
Without the influence of wind, temperature and humidity do not need to be considered, only the speed and angle of the ball need to be paid attention to, which is simpler than the previous calculation and analysis.
Of course, there is also the long sword mastery he practiced, which is as high as 80% proficient, allowing him to control the racket in his opponent as accurately as an arm.
The long sword is a light cold weapon, and it is good at speed and dexterity. It is also the most suitable in this situation.
After the first hit, the ball flew out and bounced back on another transparent wall.
This time, David directly felt that the speed of the ball increased a little.
This should have something to do with the ball and the material of the transparent wall, but he has no knowledge of this, so he can only guess.
He felt more and more like practicing swordsmanship, and the ball was the target of the sword.
The most difficult thing about squash in a sixteen-sided transparent room lies in two points. On the one hand, it is the speed of the ball. After each hit and each collision, the speed of the ball will increase a little.
This makes each stroke more difficult than the last, which greatly tests the batter's reflexes.
The second aspect is the limitation of the field of vision. People’s line of sight is only within the range in front of them. However, in the sixteen-sided transparent room, the ball is a 360-degree random collision without dead ends, which makes the ball leave the line of sight accidentally. situation.
Of course, a really powerful squash player can control the ball's landing point in a short period of time, but it will also lose the ability to accurately control the ball when the speed of the ball is too fast.
Of course David couldn't do that, but he was practicing his sword, his eyes above his head, watching the whole sixteen-sided transparent room.
David's first sword, or every racket, can hit the ball, although it may not hit the most ideal part of the racket, so that the ball does not have the expected flight path, but there is a shadow of God. Vision, he can still hit again with the next blow.
"Seven, eight, nine..." Myron began to count since David struck seven times.
Then the others started to count.
David felt that the speed could not keep up. After the continuous hitting and collision, the ball almost turned into a beam of light in the sixteen-sided transparent room.
At this time, he completely relied on the fighting instinct mastered by up to 80% of the proficient long sword, and the racket in his hand made a burst of air from time to time due to the excessive speed.
But after a few times, he finally made a mistake. He reached the limit of his speed, but the ball was still accelerating, and failure was inevitable.
He looked at the red light that lit up around him, but in his heart he thought that he must find a place to practice squash when he went back.
It's no wonder that the Titan Consortium will require squash competition. This squash requires not only the ability to react, but also the ability to precisely control the opponent's racket, the ability to observe the ball, the ability to predict the flight path, and so on.
If he can achieve good results in squash, his fighting instinct will definitely be very strong. Even if the current fighting strength is due to the lack of strength and speed, the potential is still great.
"David, do you know how many balls you've hit?" Myron hugged David and shouted after David walked out.
"I didn't pay attention!" David really didn't count, his mind was divided into two parts, which made him dare not even have any other distractions, let alone count the batting numbers.
"Thirty-five goals, you know? Thirty-five goals!" Myron exclaimed excitedly.
Squash is very difficult, but it is a very high-level activity at the elite level, so there are many people who play it, but unless it is replaced by a bigger and slower round ball, or more than 30 balls are professional players.
David's first shot was 35 goals, which was considered a good result among professional players.
"David, share your squash experience when you go back!" Jim also said with bright eyes.
"Even if David doesn't do anything else in the future, he can make a lot of money playing professional squash!" Daly exclaimed.
De Quincy had just risen to the thrill of defeating Myron, and in front of David, a rookie, he was not even a little happy.
Several people were talking and laughing, and the answers over there were still going on. David wanted to find a quiet place, but found that wherever he went, someone would come to say hello and exchange contact numbers with him.
After about an hour, the people who participated in the answering questions one after another finished their answering questions, and the hall became even more lively.
"Everyone, the pre-auction support activities have ended, and I will announce the results." Ives said in a deep voice while checking the identity bracelet.
Everyone looked at him, and the hall became quiet.
Although it is a fun activity, for the young people in the hall, this is a competition for young people, which is much more important than the auction.
Of course, some people will look at David, and they all know that one of the activities to challenge the Ives soldiers, David is the undisputed number one.
To be able to press down the Ives soldiers and make them unable to fight back, this is not the first who is the first.
Just as everyone was waiting for the announcement of the Ives Armor, everyone saw the astonishment on the face of the Ives Armor.
"Cough, cough!" Armor Ives coughed twice to hide his surprise, and then continued: "The first place in the challenge is David from Perrin City."
