Chapter 34 Occupational Trial
“Would you like to be a part of ‘The Piercing’?”
"Yes. But, what should I do to become a member of the 'Piercing' branch?"
"What is 'puncture'?" The professional instructor answered the question: "Tell me about your understanding of this branch."
"This branch seems to be comprehensive and can be far or near. It includes the advantages of 'Penetration' and 'Assassin', and complements the opponent's disadvantages. But in fact, the disadvantage is more obvious: in terms of long-range, the distance is not as good as that of 'Penetration', which specializes in long-range
In terms of distance and close combat, it is not as good as the burst of the 'Assassin' who specializes in close combat."
"In that case, why do you still want to be a member of the 'Puncture' branch?" The career instructor was very angry that Yin belittled "Puncture" in such a way.
"Because I like to challenge myself. So what if the distance is not as good as 'Penetration'? I just need to practice hard to increase my explosive power so that the long-range side can use the explosiveness of melee combat. Short distance is no longer a disadvantage; the explosion is not as good as 'Assassin'
So what, why should I pursue bursts? As long as I train hard, I will no longer be weak if I can't touch him in close combat. It's not like no one has done it in short-range kiting of opponents."
"Originally, I will give you three tests. But as a newcomer to kill the Wolf King, you will naturally have the strength, so you can go directly to the second test." Although the professional instructor did not comment on Yin's "explanation",
But you know the answer when the anger on your face turns into a smile.
"Please say."
"Shua~"
Before Yin finished speaking, the scene changed before his eyes.
"There are various targets ahead. Do your best to hit more targets as quickly as possible." The professional instructor said, pointing his finger behind Yin: "There are various types of weapons there, choose as you like."
Only then did Yin realize that this was a training ground, a very large one. Looking far into the distance, there were targets hundreds of yards away, and they were moving targets. Further away, Yin couldn't see clearly.
One yard in front of the hiding place, there is a table with various weapons - bows and arrows, crossbows, muskets, artillery, etc.
Yin picked up all the weapons, looked at them carefully, and then selected several types. Load all the ammunition that could be loaded. He picked up a bow, drew the bow and nocked an arrow: "Ready, let's start."
"start."
Following the words of the professional instructor, Yin let go and shot out four arrows - physical scattering, four arrows were set at once.
After releasing his hand, Yin picked up the two one-handed crossbows on the table without even checking whether the arrow hit the target, raised them to a level, and pulled the trigger without even aiming.
Then he changed to two single-handed pistols, without aiming, and fired blindly. Then he continued to change to long guns, hand crossbows, heavy crossbows and other long-range weapons. Until finally, he carried the heavy cannon hiddenly - "Boom".
At this point, Yin ended the attack.
Dozens of attacks, all hit the target, and some even caused penetrating attacks and hit subsequent targets. The nearest target was thirty yards away; the farthest target was hundreds of yards away.
The moving target outside was hit with heavy artillery.
"Yes, the accuracy is very good." The professional instructor looked at all the targets, and then said: "Although not many hit the red heart, they all hit the target. You can continue with the subsequent trials."
Following the words of the professional mentor, Yin returned to the professional hall.
"The previous level was a test of 'piercing' and I completed it very well. Now the third level is a test of 'piercing'. Are you ready?"
"Ready."
"In this trial, you will be transported into the scene of an event that actually happened in the past. What you have to do is to achieve certain goals based on what happened in the original event.
You will know the specific target later. The transmission begins."
Following the words of the professional mentor, Yin Yin's vision went dark. When he regained his vision again, he had arrived at a new place.
"Ding~, system: The trial begins."
As his vision recovered, he discovered that there was a person in front of him, saying something, but there was no sound.
Gradually, Yin's hearing also recovered: "...it's the captain of the guard. He leaves the barracks at dusk every day and doesn't come back until early the next morning. All you have to do is follow him and see where he goes. If
If you are unable to track or fail to follow in time, you can come back, make full preparations for the next time in advance, and then continue the next evening. You cannot be discovered, and you cannot kill the guard captain."
"No problem, leave it to me." Yin agreed, and the other party left.
"Ding~, trigger the mission goal - tracking: use all available means to find and track the guard captain and reach the destination. If the guard captain dies because of you, or is discovered, or fails the trial, there is no time limit."
Yin observed his surroundings - this was a small village with only a few dozen people in it.
Yin looked at the people, buildings, and facilities in the village and began to think about a plan of action.
Yin first came to the barracks, looked at it from a distance for a while, and confirmed that there were no means of transportation. Then he lurked - near the barracks, he found a teahouse where he could see the exit of the barracks, and sat there for most of the day.
In the evening, three people came out of the barracks, and the one walking in front was a guard captain. After the three people left the barracks, passed by the teahouse, and walked more than ten yards, Yin paid the bill - only a dozen copper coins, and followed quietly.
When they were in the village, when the three guard captains turned around, just in case, Yin would check the villagers' stalls or hide in the crowd to avoid the guard captain's possible glances.
Ten minutes later, the guard captain left the village with two guards and continued to set off. After leaving the village, there was an unobstructed view. Not only was there no cover for other people, but also no obstructions, which greatly increased the difficulty of tracking.
Yin followed at a distance, dozens of yards away.
Gradually, grass appeared on both sides of the road. As we continued to move forward, the grass became taller and taller, until it was more than half a meter high.
"Whoops~" An arrow shot out from the grass and directly killed a guard.
"!" The remaining guards and the guard captain defended back to back.
When the arrow appeared, Yin had already hid in the grass and lay down to watch.
It seemed that the people in the grass realized that they could no longer assassinate, so they rushed out. In a one-on-one situation, the murderer was still slightly better. Although he suffered a lot of injuries, they were all flesh wounds.
He dragged the guard corpses one by one into the grass. When the man appeared again, he had already changed into the clothes of the guard captain. There were also two people wearing guard clothes.
"What should I do now!" When the killer appeared, Yin had guessed that the target he needed to track would die, but he still took chances. After all, he was the target of the mission and could not just die, causing the trial to end.
But now that there is no prompt that the trial failed, Yin has a new mission goal: "Follow the three of them to take a look first."
"Ding~, system: Through tracking, you found that three guardsmen were killed, so you decided to track the people who replaced their identities. The goal - tracking, completed. Triggered a new goal - killer identity: track the fake guards and find them
