Chapter 29: 28: Chasing Wind Steps (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
Although the deal has been concluded, there are still many things that need to be implemented in the future.
For example, equity correction.
This is under the jurisdiction of the Oakland City Government Office. The Habsburg Empire has a complete "Equity Act", but the review process is slower.
For example, accountants and auditors were arranged to work at the Magic Energy Textile Factory.
They will be working here in the future and will keep an eye on every income and expenditure. They can be considered professional troublemakers.
This is extremely necessary. Human hearts cannot withstand the test, and it is better to eliminate many things at the source.
Fortunately, the Raymond family has many industries here and has trained many professionals, so we just need to transfer a few people.
The most troublesome thing is actually to open up the transportation route. The distance from Auckland City to the Norman Duchy is not far, but the road is not easy to travel.
Given the current security situation, we have to be careful when dealing with robbers, pirates, and even the navy on the road.
However, Loy believed that the Raymond family had perfect channels and strong means, and Butler Hoover could also arrange this matter properly.
Yes, Roy handed all these matters over to Butler Hoover. He did not get involved in the details, he just wanted to know the results.
Hoover readily accepted it.
This matter was originally initiated by him, and it was also his greatest opportunity to demonstrate his abilities to his family, so he naturally spared no effort.
Therefore, Luo Yi felt at ease as the boss who just did nothing, and then he took Oliveira to learn new fighting skills.
…
19 Lombard Street, first floor.
In the empty training room, Oliveira slowly took off his upper body clothes, revealing his bronze skin that looked like cast iron.
Those muscles are not very thick, but they have clear outlines, and every move seems to contain infinite explosive power.
He stood there holding a thin sword, first closing his eyes slightly, as if organizing his words.
After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Warriors are indeed not as complex as spellcasters, but each profession has its own core and characteristics."
"A combat professional who doesn't know the unique combat skills of his profession is just a useless person walking on one leg, and his combat power is mediocre.
Just like that Vulture Black Jack, he's a Level 2, but he's powerless against you."
"If the first stage is the process of building Dou Qi from nothing, the second stage is the stage of accumulating quantity and seeking control."
"Battle Qi originates from the heart and flows throughout the body with the blood. However, if you cannot control the flow of blood, you naturally cannot control the flow of Battle Qi either."
"At this stage, Dou Qi has two main functions. One is to restore physical energy consumption.
Vigorous human exercise, especially fighting, will naturally cause a great loss of physical strength. The recovery process varies from person to person, but it takes time.
Fighting Qi can quickly fill the gap, restore physical strength, and increase combat endurance."
"For those above the second level, their endurance is several times that of the peak first level. You should have felt this.
Because ordinary high-intensity training can no longer satisfy you, both the training volume and duration must be significantly increased."
Hearing this, Luo Yi couldn't help but nod slightly, feeling that it made a lot of sense.
Oliveira continued, "Of course, this is a basic ability, almost instinctive, and there's no need to learn it specifically.
But further on, it's about controlling and gathering Dou Qi. That is, when a large amount of Dou Qi accumulates in a certain part of the body, it can provide a short-term boost."
"For example, a huge increase in strength, increased speed, increased attack power, improved defense, etc.
There are actually a lot of subtle operations involved, which can produce all sorts of strange effects, but that’s too far away from you.”
Oliveira is definitely a quiet man, which has something to do with his upbringing.
As a warrior who came out of the slums, until he completely gained the trust of Earl Raymond, the path he had walked and the dangers he had experienced were far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Of course, this is the reason why he achieved the third-level extraordinary level at the age of 35.
This is not something that everyone can do. Even the hereditary knights under the Raymond family, who have been trained since childhood and can achieve the second level at the age of 25, are considered to be young and successful.
As for the third level of transcendence, it is not something that ordinary people can achieve.
However, because he was also the captain of Count Raymond's guard and had the responsibility to train his men, this forced him to speak.
The result is that the usually quiet Oliveira becomes a chatterbox as soon as he gets on the training ground.
Then he continued, “Fighting Qi follows one’s will; this is the most ideal state.
But in fact, fighting spirit is mixed in the blood and flows, and it is basically uncontrollable at the beginning of cultivation.
Therefore, countless predecessors conducted research and found some specific movements that can stimulate certain parts of the body, thereby achieving the effect of intercepting Dou Qi and concentrating it for a burst of energy in a short period of time."
“Just like this!”
The lingering sound was still ringing in his ears when Oliveira had already taken action. He put his foot on the ground, stepped suddenly, and took a step forward.
His figure was in a trance for a moment, and when he reappeared, he was already more than ten steps away.
The landing posture is also very unique. The toes touch the ground and the body is slightly arched, which makes it seem even quieter and motionless.
Then, he turned in a different direction and took another step forward. His figure disappeared and reappeared, then turned again, disappeared, and reappeared; turned again, disappeared, and reappeared...
As if to show off his skills, Oliveira's speed became faster and faster, so that more than ten solid shadows appeared in the field.
Even so, a clear voice could be heard, and Oliveira's words were still extremely steady.
"This is one of the exclusive skills of the second-level Wind Chasing Swordsman, called 'Wind Chasing Step'. It can greatly increase speed in a short period of time."
Luo Yi felt dazzled and even had the urge to close his eyes, but he kept them open.
Deep in his eyes, a blue light flickered, and characters flashed across the screen, eventually restoring Oliveira's figure.
That was the result of slowing down several times, leaving a series of movement tracks, but that was nothing.
The most important thing is that with Deep Blue's scan, Luo Yi seemed to be able to see the invisible fighting spirit constantly expanding and contracting between his legs.
Every time he stepped on the ground, his fighting spirit would spread outward at a rapid speed, and every time he landed on the ground, he would recover his fighting spirit after it was consumed.
Then, one cycle is completed, and a step is taken. With the muscles and bones vibrating and exerting force, a figure flashes and steps are seen flying.
Luo Yi's eyes lit up, and he had to admit that he was moved.
At this moment, Oliveira's voice was heard again: "The Wind Chasing Step is just a footwork. It can be used to increase speed and escape, but it can also be used to kill the enemy.
For example, like this!"
Oliveira finally drew his sword, and the rapier flashed and danced through the air, like a leaping silver light.
Coupled with the speed like a gust of wind, in the huge room, one seems to be able to see a silver light moving back and forth, jumping and dancing.
But the more beautiful something is, the more murderous it is.
Suddenly, all the phantoms and sword lights disappeared, and Oliveira stood in front of Loy again.
His face was not red, and he was not out of breath. He just looked at Luo Yi calmly and said, "Why don't you try?"
Luo Yi had no objection, so he drew out the silver angel sword in his hand, imitated Oliveira's movements, and started walking.
Exclusive skills are naturally not that easy to learn. His steps are only somewhat similar in movements, but have no effect at all.
Oliveira was not surprised, but started to give instructions.
Where is the movement not standard, where should I apply force, where should I stimulate which point, and where should I pause...
Oliveira's instructions were very detailed, breaking down each movement in great detail.
As the captain of the guard, he has instructed many people like Luo Yi and has rich experience.
Of course, he didn't expect Luo Yi to learn it in a short time.
Just kidding, if exclusive skills were so easy to learn, there wouldn't be so many amateur warriors.
Luo Yi was practicing with a focused expression, as if trying to find the feeling. He asked curiously, "Teacher, according to your experience, how long does it take to learn this Wind Chasing Step?"
Oliveira tilted his head slightly, as if thinking for a moment, before saying, "Theoretically, it takes three months to get the hang of it, another three months to hone your skills, and if you can get started within six months, you'll be considered qualified."
"Half a year, and you're just getting started?" Luo Yi's voice became much louder.
Oliveira pursed his lips and said, “There are also more talented people who can spend a month and a half to master the movements and a month and a half to hone their physique.
If you can achieve something after three months of practice, you are truly gifted."
"Faster, faster!"
Oliveira's eyes lit up: "I have seen a person who took half a month to get familiar with the art, half a month to hone his skills, and after just one month, he was able to do it quite well.
That's definitely a gifted talent, a physique most suited to a Wind Chasing Swordsman."
"Who is that person?"
“Of course it’s me, Oliveira!!!”
"The teacher is awesome!"
Luo Yi tilted his head and asked, "But, Teacher, if I were to enter the sect on the same day, what would be the required qualifications?"
“Impossible!”
Luo Yi smiled and said, "It's possible."
In his heart, he spoke to Deep Blue, "Activate the 'shielding module' and mobilize the blood to gather in your legs."
Deep Blue replied, "Yes!"
Then, Luo Yi's heart beat violently, blood rushed like a river, and fighting spirit gathered in his legs along with the blood.
The blood vessels on Luo Yi's legs, hidden under the clothes, were bulging and extremely conspicuous.
At the same time, the talent [Swift as the Wind] was activated, and the reflex nerves became extremely active, and everything within the field of vision seemed to slow down.
Until the fighting spirit suddenly exploded.
Luo Yi took a step forward, and his figure seemed to become a phantom. When he reappeared, he was already in front of a wall, only a sword's length away from the wall.
The distance between them was the distance between the silver angel's rapier and theirs. If they moved forward a little bit, they would collide with each other.
This was definitely a mistake. Luo Yi didn't expect to take one step and run so far.
But he absolutely couldn't lose his status, so he turned his head, looked at Oliveira, and asked, "Teacher, what do you think of my qualifications?"
Oliveira was stunned, and he kept muttering: "This is impossible, impossible!
How did you do that?
Luo Yi: "Well, isn't it enough to have legs?!"
It took some time to modify it...
