Chapter 461 Teaching

In the dense forest, Xu Yue did not say much after hearing the request, but just clenched his right hand. As the heat waves rose, a gorgeous longbow in golden and red soon condensed and emerged in his palm.

The longbow seemed to be condensed by flames, showing fine feather-like golden and red light that always entangled on both sides of the slender recurved bow arms.

From a distance, it looked like a pair of phoenix wings spreading their wings.

And in the center of the wings, a huge golden gem was shining in the sun.

On both sides of the gem were two golden crescents that were shaped like phoenix beaks and were facing each other outward. The tips of the crescents were inlaid with two small gems, one white and one black, and the surface of the body also emitted a glittering light.

Further out, there were large and complex sun-shining inscriptions spreading and stretching. Wherever they passed, the entire bow was tightly wrapped and entangled, which added a sense of mysterious beauty to the longbow.

Each of the combined blade equipment in Xu Yue's body has different characteristics in appearance.

Among them, the magic knife Qianren is evil.

Fang Tian Huaji is domineering.

Baxia Tower Shield is thick.

And Xiaoyun Longbow is the most luxurious. If we just talk about appearance, it is definitely the first.

Especially after Xu Yue reforged and upgraded Xiaoyun Longbow yesterday, it was promoted to dark purple quality. It can no longer be described as a pure weapon dedicated to killing. Now it is more like a beautiful and exquisite work of art.

Even the high elves who are usually famous for art and beauty can't help but raise their slender sword eyebrows slightly when they see the longbow in Xu Yue's hand.

"Nice bow."

After saying that, Philwen raised his index finger and tapped the vine handrail beside him. Then, a green hummingbird made entirely of vine branches and leaves quietly emerged from the handrail and quickly flapped its wings to fly straight into the sky like an arrow. The exaggerated speed even left a very obvious long white mark in the air.

"Come on, shoot it!"

While speaking, in just a few breaths, the kingfisher in the sky had already flown to a very high and far distance. Looking around, there was only a faintly visible tiny black dot wandering at the end of the field of vision.

For ordinary people, it would be extremely difficult to see the target clearly at this distance, let alone shoot it.

But for Xu Yue, who has overclocked vision, it is not a problem. As long as there is no obstacle, even without the assistance of aiming equipment, he can lock onto a small target more than ten kilometers away or even farther away with his naked eyes.

His eyes moved upwards, and as a hint of depth spread in the deepest part of his pupils, everything around him seemed to have been slowed down.

Although the bullet time that was slowed down 10 to 20 times could not reach the exaggerated degree of stopping everything, it was enough to make the whole world clearer in Xu Yue's eyes.

The green leaves falling in the air were falling inch by inch at a speed that was almost like a turtle's crawling, and next to it was a flying insect flapping its membrane wings leisurely passing over the fallen leaves.

At the end of the field of vision, the small black dot wandering in the dome began to rapidly enlarge and slow down at this moment, and soon it turned into the emerald green hummingbird made entirely of branches and leaves in Xu Yue's eyes.

In the dense forest below, when the target was locked, the Xiaoyun longbow in his hand was quickly pulled open. As his arms exerted force, the slender bow arms gradually bent, and the densely packed sun-shining inscriptions on them began to light up synchronously.

The dazzling golden light converged into the golden gem in the center of the bow arm along the lines of the inscriptions that lit up one after another. Then, as the light flowed, a slightly illusory golden arrow emerged by itself.

Due to the unique energy conversion characteristics of the Sun Shining Inscription, the reforged Xiaoyun Longbow has achieved significant improvements in mana consumption, arrow refining speed, and energy arrow power.

And the effect of its reforging is far more than that. The golden crescent moon that looks like a phoenix beak contains two special additional characteristics.

One is the [Death Announcement] characteristic he extracted from a sniper rifle. It can make the arrows shot automatically lock on to the target and track until the arrow is destroyed and the person dies. Otherwise, the fight will not stop until the arrow is destroyed.

The second is the [Explosion] feature he extracted from a certain ring. It can make the arrow explode directly after hitting the target, giving the target double damage from penetration + internal detonation.

With the combination of the two, even if someone who is completely unfamiliar with archery holds this longbow, he can easily burst out with terrifying lethality, not to mention Xu Yue, who is a master of archery.

So before the longbow is completely pulled to the full moon, and the scorching sun arrow is completely formed, Xu Yue decisively loosens the tight bowstring in his hand, and then sees a beam of golden light shooting out at a speed that cannot be recognized by the naked eye.

The light cuts through the sky, a breath? Or even shorter!

In short, the golden long mark remaining in the sight has not yet dissipated, and a ball of flaming fire has exploded high in the sky, and at the same time, the flying vine kingfisher is also destroyed in the fireball.

On the other side, Philwen, who was sitting on the recliner, remained calm as he watched the target he had thrown being successfully shot by Xu Yue. He just raised his hand and knocked on the armrest beside him. Soon, several more vine kingfishers flew out one after another, each heading to a completely different direction.

"Continue."

After the words fell, the high-pitched arrows broke through the air again, and a continuous stream of light rushed up into the sky. After a while, groups of bright fireballs exploded in different directions of the dome, and even the clouds in the sky were reflected in a golden red.

Even if the vine kingfisher's speed increased again, in the face of the faster and more trackable scorching sun arrows, no matter how agile and swift its movements were, it could not change the fate of being sniped one by one by Xu Yue.

Three, five, eight... the flying kingfishers were shot one by one in a stable and cold manner.

When there was only one left, the golden stream of light transformed by the scorching sun arrow just touched the target's body surface, and was cut into two parts by a green branch that flew from nowhere.

Wait, a branch? !

Xu Yue's face froze when he reacted. Thanks to the time-delay effect brought by the overclocked vision, he saw very clearly the ordinary branch with a few green leaves quietly flying out from the side and quite easily cutting off his energy arrow.

Even after being cut off, the arrow that should have exploded on the spot did not produce any abnormality, but fell straight from the sky like an ordinary broken arrow.

"A... branch."

Muttering in a low voice, Xu Yue put down the longbow in his hand in a daze, and turned to look at the high elf beside him who had stood up straight at some point.

"How did you do it?"

As early as when he had read the life story of Firven Nightwind, Xu Yue knew that the other party's archery skills must be far better than his.

But after seeing the other party's moves, he was shocked to find that he couldn't even understand how the other party could do it to this extent.

Using an ordinary branch that came later to accurately cut off his energy arrow with multiple properties, and at the same time prevent the broken arrow from exploding, this skill ability can be said to be extremely terrifying.

Let alone how the relatively fragile material of the branch can withstand the huge pressure brought by the rapid movement, just the fact that the arrow was cut off while the two major properties of the arrow, [Explosion] and [Death], were also stopped at the same time was far beyond Xu Yue's understanding.

Moreover, with his perception, within a range of less than three meters, he didn't even know when the other party shot the branch. This concealment ability that can perfectly shield perception can kill people invisibly. No wonder the other party can perform as many as 206 assassination missions behind enemy lines.

On the other side, after hearing Xu Yue's question, Philven threw the simple longbow made of vines in his hand and said nonchalantly:

"This is not difficult. For a qualified archery master, the bow and arrow in his hand are never the most important determining factors."

As he spoke, a green shadow fell straight down from the sky. It was the only surviving vine kingfisher, with half of the scorching sun arrow cut off from its beak.

When he looked carefully, Xu Yue could still sense a faint chill from the cross section of the arrow.

Letting the kingfisher rest on his left shoulder, Philven raised his hand to take the half arrow in the bird's beak. After looking at it casually, he crushed it into countless light spots.

"Extreme speed, lock, burst, scorch, armor-breaking, and a little crisis weakening effect. As I said, the bow is good, but... the archery is average."

Facing the slightly sarcastic evaluation of the high elf, Xu Yue did not refute. Compared with the other party, his archery skills are indeed poor, which is an indisputable fact.

What he needs now is to learn and improve, not to engage in meaningless arguments.

"Please teach me."

The purpose of the existence of the advanced mirror is to guide the technique. Philven naturally has no possibility of refusing. Glancing at Xu Yue, who looked respectful on the opposite side, he pulled the corner of his mouth slightly, and then continued to speak.

"Do you know what the biggest difference between the bow and the magic musket made by the goblins is?"

After saying that, Philven's slightly rising tone sounded again without waiting for Xu Yue to reply.

"It's secrecy and control, especially the latter, which makes the bow and arrow in my hand truly have breathing and life, instead of just being a dead object without any change like the goblin musket."

"The kinetic energy of the musket is gunpowder, machinery, and magic energy, and these are dead objects that have been completely limited since production, so the lethality of the musket is constant, the firing rate is constant, and even the trajectory is also constant. This constancy ensures the accuracy and universality of the musket, but it also limits the possibility of the other party to go further."

"But the bow and arrow are different, everything about it is controlled by the operator."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"When firing a musket, you only need to pull the small trigger, and everything that follows will be constant by the musket itself, but for the bow and arrow, I can control all its changes, including power, speed, killing range, violent concealment..."

Perhaps because he felt that the simple explanation was not significant enough, while speaking, Philwen casually broke off an ordinary branch beside him, and while continuing to explain, he slowly drew the bow and opened the string with the branch in his hand.

The vine longbow in his hand looked extremely crude and loose, but when the bowstring was pulled, Xu Yue had an inexplicable illusion that the whole world was collapsing inward with the longbow as the center.

"Look carefully."

"Quick!"

Before he finished speaking, a beam of green light suddenly penetrated Xu Yue's vision, and instantly penetrated to a distance of ten thousand meters at an exaggerated speed that even overclocked vision could not lock. When he finally reacted, the green light that shot out in front of him had already disappeared, and only the numerous small round holes in the sea of ​​trees not far away showed that the green light just now was not an illusion.

Staring at the thumb-sized round hole in front of him, Xu Yue looked solemn. This arrow far exceeded his nerve reflex speed, that is, if the arrow was aimed at him, he would most likely not even have the chance to dodge.

And the horror was not just the speed, but more importantly, this arrow did not make any sound, not even the sound of breaking through the air that should have occurred when moving at high speed, as if it was not an arrow that was shot, but a high-energy laser that could annihilate everything silently.

"Clever!"

Not paying attention to Xu Yue's reaction beside him, Philven immediately pulled the second arrow in his hand after the first arrow was shot.

Unlike the previous green light that was so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly, the speed of this arrow was relatively "normal", so Xu Yue could clearly observe that after the branch wrapped in the invisible wind group flew a hundred meters away, it deflected its own flight arc very smoothly and began to circle around the open space where the two were.

Wherever it passed, towering trees hit by the arrows fell one after another, and roars suddenly sounded all around.

"Transverse!"

The third arrow, the high-pitched arrow whistled through the clouds and cracked the rocks. At the end of the arrow that was rushing out, there was an extremely obvious conical white fog. It was the magnificent sonic boom cloud formed after the arrow broke through the sound barrier, also known as the Mach cone.

With the appearance of the Mach cone, the sharp whistling sound in the air suddenly became more deafening. At the same time, the fierce hurricane was also driven by the arrow that could tear apart the sound waves. At this time, it was like a white spear more than ten meters long. Under the tip of the spear, the earth rolled and the grass and trees were broken. Soon, a straight road more than a hundred meters wide was plowed out in the dense forest.

"Destruction!"

The fourth arrow, unlike the previous ones, seemed ordinary when it was first shot, but when the arrow landed, it seemed that endless sharp wind blades gushed out in an instant, so the area of ​​nearly a thousand meters in radius was covered by countless messy wind blades, and it suddenly became a huge open-air meat grinder.

For a while, screams and roars came one after another. Whether it was solid rocks, flexible plants, or misty clouds in the sky, they all gradually disappeared under the cutting of the fine wind blades. After dozens of seconds, the raging storm slowly dissipated, and only a thousand-meter-deep giant pit remained on the spot.

Then came the fifth arrow, the sixth arrow, and the seventh arrow...

Fierven used the most intuitive way to show Xu Yue how powerful a simple bow and arrow made of vines and branches could be in his hands, and how many completely different and terrifying changes there were.

"Resurrection!"

As the last arrow was shot, the vine longbow in Philwen's hand turned into powder and scattered, and the flying arrows scattered large patches of emerald green light spots along the way.

Along the way, green buds were seen drilling out of the soil under the catalysis of the light spots, and began to grow rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a few minutes, the originally devastated and devastated land was turned into a prosperous green again.

After the demonstration, Philwen first glanced at the lush green forest around him with satisfaction, then looked sideways at Xu Yue who was thinking beside him, and said slowly:

"For those goblin musketeers, the muskets in their hands are above everything else, because the power of the guns comes from the guns themselves. All they have to do is aim and then pull the trigger. This is slavery, not skills."

"The premise of skills is control, but you can't rely on it. For me, a good bow and arrow is icing on the cake, but even if I am given an ordinary branch, I can still shoot strong enemies, because my strength comes from every inch of flesh and blood in my body, from the skills that have been tempered for thousands of years, and from all my understanding of the element of wind in the past four hundred years. In short, it is definitely not from the bow and arrow in my hand."

Hearing this, Xu Yue lowered his eyes and glanced at the green dust that had not yet dissipated at his feet. The other party had proved to him with practice that this theory was true.

Noticing Xu Yue's eye fluctuations, Philwen, who was explaining, patted the longbow powder remaining between his fingers, and then raised his hand to point at the gorgeous longbow in Xu Yue's hand.

"So you understand why I say the bow is good, but the archery is average. The arrows you shot at the kingfisher before were almost the same in speed and power. You rely more on the powerful characteristics of this longbow, not your own skills. If that's all, then what's the difference between you and those goblin musketeers who can only pull the trigger?"

"For a qualified technical master, the so-called weapon is just a carrier for displaying one's own skills. It is always secondary. If you put the cart before the horse, then are you controlling the weapon, or is the weapon enslaving you?"

Philwen's tone was not high, but at this moment, it shocked Xu Yue like Huang Zhong Dalu, and he froze all over. Thanks to the profession of the master of the weapon, he can almost infinitely improve the quality and effect of the weapon in his body, and even the related technical abilities can be mastered quickly in one fell swoop.

But because of this, sometimes he tends to rely too much on the powerful effects of the weapons in his body, especially after awakening the ability to transfer characteristics brought by the "Eating Blades", piling up a large number of various characteristics on the combined blade equipment has become one of his backup plans.

Of course, it is not to say that this plan is bad, but if this tendency is allowed to grow recklessly, then in the end, will he, the lord of all weapons, be able to control all weapons from a high position, or will he be gradually enslaved by all weapons in his endless desire to improve his weapons?

To give a simple example, the reason why Pangu Axe can create the world is that its power cannot be ignored, but more importantly, the person who holds it is called Pangu.

Similarly, the reason why Chiyou is called the Lord of Weapons is that the weapons in his hands are important, but the most important thing is his invincible combat power.

If someone else holds these weapons, then the other party will definitely not be able to become another Lord of Weapons, and even if Chiyou loses these weapons, it will not change the fact that he is the God of War.

Just from the ability of "eating blades", it can be clearly seen what kind of attitude Chiyou holds towards these weapons in his hands.

After thinking this through, Xu Yue first bowed slightly to Philwen opposite him with great sincerity, and then took back the Xiaoyun longbow in his hand into his body, and took out some metal and melted it into a white iron bow with no characteristics with flames.

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher. What should I learn next?"

Hearing this, Philwen's lips curled up with an undisguised smile, and a simple longbow made entirely of vines also appeared in his hand.

"Very good, then let's start with the most basic holding, buckling, lifting, lifting, aiming, and throwing."
