As for archery, Dolai has actually read many books and has some experience.
When shooting at a moving target, the most important thing is to calculate the speed of the arrow, the opponent's movement speed, the impact of obstacles on the way on the moving object, guess the possible movement method and distance, and when shooting, judge where the object may fall based on the distance.
This requires a lot of observation, experience, etc. If you are alone, you might be able to shoot at fixed targets by relying on your stealth skills, but if a large group of people are traveling, the movement they cause can only be like shooting at moving targets.
This tests one's ability.
An experienced old hunter can hit the target four to five times out of ten based on past experience, but he can only rely on his huge calculation ability to shoot arrows.
After agreeing to the task, Duolai went back to prepare.
He was planning to leave Sanhekou Town only after he was promoted to the extraordinary level. These days, he had no magic crystals and insufficient materials, and he did not plan to study any magic patterns. In a few days, he was going to go to the black market. He would just hang out with everyone for the next two days to gain some experience.
The next day, early in the morning, a team of thirty people appeared at the entrance of the village. Some of them held swords, some held bows and swords, and they carried large and small bags on their bodies. It was obvious that they planned to stay in the mountains for a day or two before coming back.
Dolai was naturally also in the team. The long bow on his body and the exquisite sword hanging on his waist became the biggest scenery in the team.
This bow was produced by Mondo's blacksmith shop. Naturally, it was not made by Dolai himself. He did not have the ability to make spring steel. This required very high skills. Moreover, even if it was spring steel, it might not be able to be used as a bow arm. It was very particular.
This is Uncle Hong’s work.
It was a bit cold in the mountains in the early morning, so everyone was wearing a lot of clothes. The less you wear, the stronger you are. For example, Victor wore an ordinary coat and a light chain mail.
After gathering at the entrance of the village, and once everyone was present, they quickly went up the mountain at a very fast speed.
The mountains behind the town were full of trampled roads and there was nothing there at all, just rabbits, rats, snakes, pangolins, and ordinary harmless creatures, and they were going to the mountains within the mountains.
The team was advancing very quickly. They almost ran and quickly reached the top of the mountain. Then, after a short pause, they crossed the top of the mountain and entered the valley below. This was an area that Dolai was unfamiliar with.
The team was still moving, and Victor came up to him and asked, "Where's your dog?"
Dole shrugged, "Sleep in."
Victor's mouth twitched. He looked ahead and said, "Our goal is the valley behind the mountain. Generally speaking, there will be wild boars, bison, wild goats, gray wolves, timberwolves, bears, etc. We just need to hunt sheep and cattle. If we encounter tigers, leopards, etc., we should avoid them. Although these things are not very threatening, if we kill too many of them, it will disrupt the balance of the mountain."
At this time, the sky has brightened and the sun has come out. The red light shines on a layer of mist on the mountain, reflecting a little bit of glow, which is very beautiful.
Dole didn't expect Victor to say such a thing, especially the last sentence, which seemed full of infinite philosophy. He thought for a moment and said, "Well, I won't shoot arrows casually."
He had read many books and naturally understood why Victor said such things.
The forest is a complete ecological chain, with herbivores, carnivores, and carnivores divided into many levels from low to high. Wolves, tigers, leopards and other top predators.
Organisms can be divided into those that live in groups and those that live alone. Tigers and leopards rarely live in groups, while wolf packs are very common. Wolves can be killed in large numbers because they have a strong reproductive capacity and can never be killed. However, tigers and leopards are very rare. If you kill them, the wolves will have no enemies and will reproduce faster, affecting the ecological balance.
After entering the valley, the team slowed down, with the old hunter leading the way and starting the tracking mode.
There was water flowing in the valley, and all living things needed water, so naturally many traces were left behind. Soon, the old hunters found the traces of a group of wild deer.
There are a lot of deer in this group, more than thirty in total. Victor plans to hunt about five and take them back.
The old hunter set off quickly and entered the mountains beside the road.
Dole followed closely behind, watching their actions.
It’s different when following a master. You can’t find prey even after working so hard, but others can find food just by looking around. That’s the difference.
When Dolai saw this, he also began to observe the details around him. He opened his perception to the maximum, not missing any trace, and soon he found some small traces himself.
The team moved forward while observing the surroundings. Soon, someone shot an arrow and nailed a little rabbit to the ground. After a while, a lost wild boar was found, and two or three people attacked together and shot him to death.
Wild boars have very thick skin, so they often only need one shot to be killed. They are also moving targets, so if someone is not confident, multiple people will need to work together.
Dolai followed on the flank, also observing the jungle. He did not fire a single arrow, but watched everyone's harvest with a smile on his face.
The team rarely spoke. Even Victor only shouted occasionally. It was quiet and made almost no sound.
After walking for a while, the old hunter in front quietly made a gesture, which meant he had found the prey and was ready to collect it. A young man put away his bow, quietly climbed up the tree, and looked forward.
After a while, he came down and waved to clean up.
Dole understood what he meant, the prey was ahead.
Victor waved his hand, and everyone began to quietly disperse in all directions, including Dolai.
He was faster and more cautious than others, and soon found the direction of the flank.
There was a flat green field in front of us. The sun shone through the trees, and mottled shadows swayed on the ground. Dozens of wild deer were vigilantly eating grass in the forest and walking towards the mountains.
Animals in the mountains are generally more vigilant.
Dolai found a good position and after searching for a long time, he found a prey. It was a slightly older deer, with a body as big as a calf. It was responsible for observation, with its ears motionless, observing the surroundings.
This is the responsibility of a sentinel in a population.
At this time, they were about a hundred meters away from the herd of deer.
Dolai quickly pulled out an arrow and quietly aimed. He glanced left and right and saw that others were closer and some had already taken aim.
A sound appeared in Dole's ears, it was the sound of arrow shooting, and at the same time, Dole let go.
Fixed target, no wind, ready to hit.
Dolai aimed at the deer's eyes and shot through the deer's head almost instantly. The arrow had such strong penetrating power that it shot out from the back of his head and the deer fell to the ground without a sound. At the same time, sounds were also heard from other places.
The deer encountered this disaster and screamed quickly, fleeing into the mountains at an extremely fast speed, faster than forest wolves. They disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The crowd applauded loudly, and one of them shouted loudly, "Doctor Lin Rui is amazing, he shot an arrow through the head, such strength, I am jealous."
The one who spoke was Robert. He also shot one, but only in the heart. He didn't dare shoot the eyes from such a distance. The target was too small and the uncertainty was too great.
