Chapter 196: New Secret Weapon, Go to Yunzhou City
Hearing this, Bai Xiao's eyes lit up slightly.
Recently, his strength has increased rapidly, and he has increased the points of many secret martial arts to the limit. So far, basically only one secret of the fierce bird has not been completely perfected. To be honest, Bai Xiao really needs to get a new secret martial art, otherwise he will fall into the dilemma of having potential points but not being able to increase them.
"Can you use this Level 2 badge now?"
Bai Xiao thought for a moment and made a decision immediately.
The metal badge he held between thumb and index finger gleamed slightly.
The red fist mark and number two on the surface have fine textures and look very exquisite, giving the impression of a commemorative badge or commemorative currency.
"sure."
The staff member of the Martial Arts Association in front of him nodded immediately.
Soon, the two of them left the martial arts building together and also left the fierce bird flow headquarters. They got on the martial arts association's exclusive vehicle and headed towards the association.
…
Huaishui City Martial Arts Association, location of the armory.
This was a small warehouse similar to a library, right next to the warehouse where Bai Xiao had taken the dried lion heart medicine last time. Several staff members in blue uniforms stood at the door, observing the surroundings meticulously.
Bai Xiao walked over under the guidance of the previous staff member.
Show your Level 2 badge to a Warden.
After the other party checked, he was released.
After opening the alloy iron door and walking through a cement corridor, a library that was neither too big nor too small appeared at the corner. In the space, there were rows of black bookshelves, with a large number of heavy books placed in different categories.
Bai Xiao walked along the aisle between the bookshelves. The air was filled with the faint smell of ink and paper, without any musty smell. It was obviously well maintained. His eyes swept to both sides, claw skills, leg skills, horizontal training, weapons...
There are all kinds of secret martial arts and techniques, which can be said to be quite complete.
However, they all looked like some inferior secret weapons, and their value was not very high. They were probably on the same level as the Giant Stone Skill that Bai Xiao had practiced before.
"The first floor of the armory is full of second-rate secret martial arts, or what can be called fourth-rate or fifth-rate, so they are not very valuable. Of course, even the worst secret martial arts are much stronger than the martial arts and boxing that ordinary people practice. But for those of us who practice secret martial arts, the first-rate secret martial arts are the core that we can rely on..."
The staff member who was leading the way next to him spoke slowly.
"The Level 2 badge you received allows you to enter the second underground floor of the armory."
"The first floor above ground is second-rate, the first floor underground is third-rate, and the second floor underground is second-rate secret weapons! To be fair, the Huaishui City Martial Arts Association is only average among all prefecture-level city martial arts associations, and does not have the ability and means to collect a large number of second-rate secret weapons. Therefore, on the second floor underground, there may be very few options for you to choose. Try to choose the one that suits you..."
He gave two more words of advice.
Bai Xiao nodded and soon came to a staircase on the side of the first floor. There, a middle-aged man in black clothes was guarding it.
Go all the way down to the second underground floor.
He handed the second-level badge in his hand to an old man guarding the second underground floor. The old man in black casual clothes had a strong aura and exuded a faint sense of danger. He was obviously a high-level fighter of the association.
"Look through them yourself. There are only a few second-rate secret martial arts books, and the number and types are limited." The old man signaled with his eyes. Bai Xiao followed his gaze and found that there were indeed only a few books on the second underground floor.
Each secret book is placed separately on a metal table.
There is also a special booklet on the side that summarizes the advantages and disadvantages.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xiao walked over quickly.
He came to the first platform, picked up a secret book and opened the pages.
"Skull-crushing elbow, this is a close combat secret martial art that frequently uses the elbow joint. It has a short and fast burst effect, and can perform multiple consecutive elbow strikes at a speed and angle that the enemy can't expect! This boxing method requires constant practice of elbow movements. After each exercise, soak in a special potion to make the elbow harder than alloy, enough to crush someone's head. If you can perfectly master the iron elbow fist, you will be able to skillfully use two different attack distances..."
Bai Xiao shook his head. This secret weapon seemed to be the bottom of the second-rate ones. It did not require any difficult skills or talents. The main cost was endless time and the pain of each training.
"Let's look at the others."
He shifted his gaze elsewhere and moved his feet.
Soon, Bai Xiao flipped through several books on secret martial arts, but none of them suited his taste.
until……
"Flowing Water Heavy Gun Fist"
"This is a fist technique for training the arms. It takes the meaning of the endless flow of water and the power of the heavy spear, and combines them into one. A punch is swung at the enemy, penetrating heavily, and the aftereffect is endless. Moreover, as the battle continues, if the opponent fails to interrupt the Flowing Water Heavy Spear Fist, the practitioner's fist power will become stronger and stronger, until the opponent can't bear it, or the practitioner can't bear it! It should be noted that practicing the Flowing Water Heavy Spear Fist requires special training techniques and force techniques, which may slightly change the bones..."
“Maybe there will be some conflict with other boxing styles.”
When he first started reading, his eyes lit up slightly, but then dimmed. This Flowing Water Heavy Spear Fist looks good, with a powerful momentum of opening and closing. However, practicing it may conflict with other skills. Bai Xiao remembered that when he mastered the fourth level of the Fierce Bird Water Bird Soaring, his arm bones seemed to have undergone subtle changes during the strengthening process.
If you practice Flowing Water Heavy Spear Fist, there is a high probability that they will affect each other.
Not only will they not complement each other, but they will also have completely opposite effects. Neither of them can exert the power they should have.
“What a pity…”
Bai Xiao shook his head and continued to scan the remaining secret martial arts.
Unfortunately, there were no second-rate secret martial arts related to hard training in the arsenal on the second underground floor. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to worry about it like he is now, and would have just entered without thinking. Because the copper wall and iron wall profession he chose could be strengthened, which could allow the hard training he practiced to break through its own limits.
In fact, it is equivalent to making the mastered skills a level stronger.
"It can only be this."
Bai Xiao lowered his head slightly and looked at the yellowed secret book in his hand.
"Cannonball Pace"
"It is an outlier among Qinggong. It is not a flexible and light skill in the traditional sense. It cannot use body movements to play tricks on opponents, nor can it easily dodge attacks from others. However, it can bring a terrifying linear burst speed and amazing driving force to the practitioner! The reason why it is called the cannonball step is that every time the footsteps exert special force, the force will be ejected, which will bring a loud noise like a bomb explosion and leave a deep pit on the ground. The advantages and disadvantages of this skill are too obvious and polarized. If you don't control it well, you may even hurt yourself when using it..."
Bai Xiao's eyes were fixed, and he was very interested in the description of this light skill.
Especially the pros and cons of the last reminder.
Indeed, the speed of Qinggong is too fast and difficult to control. For some secret martial arts practitioners whose fighting style is light and agile, it is actually a negative benefit. It's like a car with a thin iron sheet that suddenly gets the acceleration of a racing car. If it accidentally hits the wall, it will directly become scrap metal. The cannonball step has a bit of this meaning.
However, he didn't care much.
Because, what if the thing that achieved the amazing speed of a racing car was not a fragile car, but a heavy alloy tank like a bloody bull? What if it hit the wall? It would just crush it, turn it into ashes, and run over it!
The White Owl's body is the most powerful weapon.
Even simply knocking someone away can cause astonishing damage.
"Cannonball Pace" is probably quite suitable for him.
"This is it. It's the best choice when you don't have any hard skills."
After much consideration, Bai Xiao picked up the secret book and slowly turned around.
Of course, he also wanted to make up for his shortcomings in the four attributes. The speed attribute should really be improved a few times.
In the past, when Bai Xiao encountered an enemy in battle, he basically never had a situation where his speed could not keep up with the opponent. The only time was probably when he met Feng Falcon from the Ghost Face Organization some time ago. To be fair, Bai Xiao's speed attribute is not very outstanding, but it is enough when facing ordinary opponents. However, in the next Dark World Fighting Competition, there will be geniuses from different powerful schools, mastering various mysterious secrets.
There might be someone as skilled in lightness skills as Feng Falcon.
Bai Xiao's above-average speed might not be able to keep up with these top-notch opponents. If he couldn't keep up, he would probably be fooled.
He doesn't want to have any shortcomings.
If you see your own problems in advance, it is better to try to solve them. It would be stupid to wait until you really suffer from the loss of speed and then react belatedly and feel regret.
"First, learn this second-rate technique..."
"When there are potential points later, add them directly!"
Soon, Bai Xiao exchanged the champion's reward and left the Huaishui City Martial Arts Association with a cannonball step. He did not return to the fierce bird flow headquarters, but came to the Huaishui branch of the Moyun Group alone by car.
Because there is a very important mission that requires Bai Xiao.
…
Moyun Group branch, Zhu Ye’s office.
A pure white carpet made of wool was laid around the black desk. In the sofa lounge area next to the French window, Bai Xiao was leaning quietly on the leather cushion, with a cup of warm black tea on the coffee table in front of him.
He reached out his hand, raised the teacup, and took a sip.
"You mean, you want me to protect someone from Huaishui City to Yunzhou City, the provincial capital? Why are you looking for me? What's the specific reason?"
On the other side, Zhu Ye was wearing a black suit, looking very formal and serious. He also took a sip of tea and then said.
"Yes, on the 7th, an important figure of the company will leave from a secret base and go to the Yunzhou City headquarters. She will also carry some very important secret information. Therefore, this mission is equivalent to a combination of protection mission and escort mission. The company will give you double rewards. Not only will you have a lot of points, but after the mission is completed, you will also be provided with mercury potions or some special series of strong biological armor..."
Zhu Ye paused and said, "As for the reason, to be honest, it's because of Tianshen Company and the Land of Evolution. After Tianshen Company and our Moyun Group almost openly declared war, their intelligence network has been keeping a close eye on our high-end combat forces deployed in various places. Those above a certain level will be the focus of attention..."
"If we deliberately mobilize experts to protect that important person, it will expose their whereabouts. And we have to be on guard all the way from Huaishui City to Yunzhou City. After all, the Evolution Land hidden in the dark may be the thugs of Tianshen Company. If they are dispatched, the threat should not be underestimated..."
"You can't just send a few security guards to get away with it."
"There must be a real master in charge."
He looked at Bai Xiao and continued.
"I think, if it were you, Dr. Wu Ling, you would definitely arrive at the headquarters safely. Bai Xiao, how about it? Are you willing to take over?"
Directly opposite, the expressionless face smiled slightly.
"why not?"
Bai Xiao took on this mission mainly because it was on the way. He happened to be going to Yunzhou City, the capital of Nanjiang Province, to participate in the provincial dark world fighting competition. Bringing one more person along on the road would not have much impact. Moreover, after a few hours of travel, he could gain potential points, so why not?
"Okay, thank you for your help then."
Zhu Ye said to Bai Xiao very seriously.
"By the way, I'm going to Yunzhou City soon and may stay there for a while. If I want to settle the rewards, can I redeem them directly from the headquarters of Moyun Group in Yunzhou City?" Bai Xiao thought for a moment and said...
"Of course, I'll just notify the people over there."
Zhu Ye smiled, held the teacup with his left hand, and then stretched out his right hand.
Bai Xiao also stretched out his hand, and the two shook hands.
“It’s a pleasure to work with you!”
…
Time flies.
August 5th, August 6th, two days passed quickly.
It is now August 7th, 6:30 in the morning.
The sky was a little pale, and the morning sun was rising slowly into the sky, before it could bring the heat. The dewdrops on the ends of the green branches of the forest were glittering.
The headquarters of the Xiongniao clan, in the back mountain.
“Bang!”
A sound like an explosion suddenly echoed.
A deep pit appeared on the ground, and dirt flew everywhere. A strong and tall figure shot out, turning into pieces of black afterimages.
The speed is extremely fast and the force is extremely strong.
However, due to a steering error, the brakes were not applied properly.
The figure crashed into the woods and collided violently with a tree that was as thick as two or three people hugging it! The trunk of the tree broke instantly, as if it had been hit by a missile, and yellow sawdust flew across the sky like a stream of water.
Boom boom boom boom!
Several large trees fell down one after another, leaves flew everywhere, and the ground shook.
The birds in the forest were startled and flapped their fluffy wings.
One of the black and white feathers slowly floated down and landed quietly on the shoulder of the young man who was standing silently in a messy open space.
White Owl patted the crumbs from the folds of his clothes and muttered to himself.
“Finally got started…”
“It’s a little harder than I thought.”
[Skill: Introduction to Cannonball Steps (1/200)]
He withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, slowly turned around and walked down the mountain.
That is the direction of the Xiongniaoliu headquarters complex.
"Time is up."
"The next thing is..."
"Head to Yunzhou City."
"Participate in the second stage of the provincial dark world fighting competition!"
