Chapter 74 Turning Passive into Active
If he could still compete with Ryan before, but after watching the demonstration between Instructor Humbert and Ryan this time, the desire to compete with Ryan in Thick Eyebrows was completely defeated.
Is this a swordsmanship genius? !
It's really despairing!
Thick Eyebrows' heart was filled with deep disappointment at this moment!
In the following sparring session, Ryan was bored.
Obviously, in sparring with child servants, no child servant could bring him basic swordsmanship experience points.
If he wanted to gain basic swordsmanship experience points more quickly, unless Instructor Humbert came to be his sparring partner in person, but thinking of the evasive look of the instructor before, Ryan knew that he couldn't force it.
Ryan also felt for the first time that the child servant training that could greatly improve his strength was now slowly unable to keep up with his pace of progress and gradually became "useless".
So, finding a break during practice, Ryan walked towards the instructor Humbert and asked softly, "Instructor, can I go and practice archery?"
Since Humbert was the instructor of both swordplay and archery, Humbert nodded without hesitation, "Sure! Ryan, go to the shooting range over there and practice by yourself."
After all, he also knew that the only person who could practice swordplay with Ryan now was him, and the other servants were completely unable to cope with him.
But he couldn't go out and practice with him himself, what if he
got into trouble?
In a thousand words, it was meaningless for Ryan to continue to take this kind of basic swordplay training.
Archery, however, was still Ryan's "shortcoming".
Humbert fully supported this.
Ryan was immediately delighted and said, "Thank you, Instructor Humbert."
He also wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect Instructor Humbert to agree so readily.
So, in the surprised eyes of the servants, Ryan ended the basic swordplay training ahead of time and went to the shooting range not far away alone to practice archery.
The archery skills of the Night Watch elites left a deep impression on Ryan.
The dense and accurate rain of arrows efficiently killed the evil fin fishmen.
Since he was reluctant to use his precious skill points on basic archery, Ryan now had to spend some time and energy to practice archery seriously.
He picked a war bow with a pulling force of about 100 pounds and began to practice on the wooden target.
After Ryan's various attributes were improved, it was obvious that archery training would also be beneficial. A war
bow of this poundage might make the average guard's arm very sore and numb after shooting it 20 to 30 times in a row, and it would be difficult to pull it again. However, the improvement of physique and strength made Ryan feel like he was eating and drinking water. He would only take a short break after more than 100 shots.
The further improvement of spirit brought a certain degree of increased sensitivity in perception. When Ryan practiced archery, it was obvious that he hit the bull's eye more times than before.
In particular, the system prompts that came one after another were the source of Ryan's motivation.
[You have trained in basic archery, and your understanding of the relevant skills has improved! 】
【Your skill Basic Archery is improved, experience +1】
Fortunately, although the shooting range is also in the outer fort, it is in the northwest corner of the outer fort, and is separated from the central area where the servants are located by two or three hundred meters, so it is not clear.
Otherwise, I am afraid that Humbert and the servants will be shocked.
After half a day, the basic archery has improved significantly, reaching level 2 (18/300).
Sure enough, physical fitness is the basis for practicing all combat skills.
With good physical fitness, learning anything will be much faster.
Before, when the physical fitness improved by one or two points, it was not felt, but after the physical fitness was improved in all aspects this time, Ryan felt it was extremely obvious.
At noon that day, Ryan, George and other servants came to the servant restaurant of the manor.
However, when Ryan faced the servant lunch in front of him again, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. A large plate of mashed potatoes, two thin slices of pickled pork and a large bowl of vegetable soup were not enough for his body's nutritional needs.
Before, the training intensity could not keep up.
Now even nutrition is not enough.
"The current servant training is really not very useful for me!"
As for archery, I believe the Night's Watch should also have a corresponding training ground.
As for blacksmithing, if it is just daily iron forging, you should be able to learn it from the blacksmith Borris. It's nothing more than spending a little more tuition, but it's free.
"Ryan, why don't you eat?" George, who was standing aside, saw Ryan in a daze and asked.
"Nothing." Ryan shook his head and stopped after eating a few bites.
In the afternoon, Ryan still trained in archery alone. After the servant training was over, Ryan first greeted Humbert Instructor and George, saying that there was something going on at home and he would not participate in the servant training recently.
Then he found a maid and asked her to help contact the head maid Shadiya.
Not long after, Ryan saw Shadiya again.
She was still wearing the same black maid outfit and a serious expression, but when she saw Ryan, who had obviously grown taller and stronger, her expression softened a little, she smiled, nodded and said,
"Ryan, you've grown taller and stronger. It seems that you have been practicing the breathing method that the young lady left for you very seriously. It's very good."
"By the way, are you here this time because the black tung oil is used up?"
Ryan shook his head and said, "Thank you for your affirmation, the head maid. I came here this time to tell you that I don't plan to participate in the future child servant training."
"I think I can practice the Giant Bear Breathing Method and Giant Bear Swordsmanship at home, which may be relatively free."
Head maid Shatia thought for a moment and understood Ryan's concerns. She nodded and said,
"Indeed, since Miss Claire left, it may be more convenient for you to practice at home."
After Ryan informed the head maid Shatia, he quickly came to the kennel. He planned to take a greyhound puppy home.
Without much thought, Ryan paid three silver coins to receive the greyhound puppy he had teased before.
Of course, there are differences between greyhounds, such as bloodline, body shape, etc.
But the strength of ordinary dogs does not mean much to Ryan. The
main purpose of his adoption of dogs is to try some recipes and potions recorded in the "Beast Taming Diary", and to see if it is possible to trigger a new career panel.
In this case, there is no need to go through the trouble of carefully selecting, and the familiar greyhound puppy will do.
So, under the setting sun, Ryan left the manor with the puppy and walked towards the town of Shining Gold.
On the other hand, since "Poison Blade" did not return or submit a mission report until the time limit for the mission was completed, the Wilderness Brotherhood soon realized that the mission was likely to fail.
Since this was a mission assigned by a big shot in the county city, the Wilderness Brotherhood urgently arranged for additional personnel to collect intelligence on the target person Ryan again.
Soon, they found an unexpected news.
This farm boy who was originally an ordinary person actually obtained a junior bounty hunter license, and judging from the date, it was before "Poison Blade" accepted the mission.
Those who can obtain a bounty hunter license are likely to be more than a militia, and may have reached the level of a first-level knight squire, or even higher, and there is a possibility of reaching the level of a second-level knight squire.
If this is the case, it is not surprising that "Poison Blade" was caught off guard and capsized in the gutter.
So, the problem was found.
It was not that their Wilderness Brotherhood was too incompetent, but that the intelligence was inaccurate, which caused them to lose a carefully trained killer!
All of a sudden, the Wilderness Brotherhood turned from passive to active.
