Eleanor stood up straight, slowly grasped the handle of the gun with her right hand, and raised her forearm slightly.
What she is holding is an East Solomon-style knight's lance, about 3.6 meters long.
The gun body is straight and slender, and is entirely made of fine gold. It glows a light black gold color under the sunlight.
The wings of the gun are engraved with a ferocious dragon head, and a sharp gun blade spits out from the dragon's mouth, which is extremely thin and slender.
If it were made of ordinary steel, it would be impossible to make such a thin gun blade. Because it is not strong enough, it can be easily cut off by a long sword slashing horizontally.
Only fine gold can converge the blade line within such a narrow range, making it difficult to break and at the same time, it can penetrate three layers of iron armor with just one blow.
Ask stood opposite her, holding her original weapon in her hand - a spear made of fine steel. It was extremely heavy and could not be used easily by normal people.
"Dragon Spear, Cloud Piercer, Spiral Charge, and Iron Cutting." Asik said slowly, "These four spear techniques you have learned are the basis of a spear technique system, just like the Eight Tactics are to sword techniques.
"
"Dragon gun, grab skill, pierce the enemy and throw it out to achieve the purpose of control."
"Cloud piercing, armor-piercing skills, targeted at enemies with heavy armor and shields, using extreme violence to penetrate defenses,"
"Spiral dash, defense-breaking technique, uses the rotation of the gun body to shake off the enemy's block or attack parry."
"Zhan Tie, this is your family's spear skill. It is mainly used to target close enemies and force them back."
"From a professional perspective, you have completed the first step, which is to master these four basic gun skills. The next step is to use them flexibly to adapt to more complex combat needs."
Ask turned around and aimed the spear in his hand forward. There were four battle dolls placed there with wooden stakes stuck in the soil.
"The first is Dragon Spear. As a grabbing skill, once it stabs the enemy, it will inevitably create a stiff state, and subsequent pursuits will definitely hit."
"Of course, the enemy cannot be so stupid. You know that the dragon spear's stab is extremely beneficial to you, so the enemy will naturally be wary of your dragon spear."
"If you simply use a skill, a player with a little experience will dodge. Uh, you know what the player means, right?"
"I know, it means warrior." Eleanor nodded and said.
"Hmm..." Ask hesitated, "Let's understand it this way. Then, how to make the dragon spear hit the enemy is a matter of great skill."
He raised his spear and stabbed the battle puppet in front of him. Eleanor could see clearly that it was just a simple stab. The moment he was about to stab the puppet, the gun suddenly rose upwards.
Turned into a dragon lance!
"Change of moves. As the name suggests, it means starting with a certain move, and at the moment when it is about to hit the enemy, it suddenly changes into another move, making the enemy unable to respond." Asik said in a demonstration, "First use a straight thrust.
Start with your hand, and then suddenly pick up the gun, turning into grabbing the dragon gun. There is a professional term for this called 'transforming the dragon'."
"The later the opportunity to transform into a dragon, the better. I have an old friend who uses a gun, and he can transform into a dragon the moment he stabs the enemy."
"The enemy didn't even know why he was caught. He originally thought he just received a straight stab, and then his whole perspective changed."
He sighed, thinking that his friends in the professional circle should all be showing off their talents on the e-sports stage by now. Maybe everyone has made it to the playoffs.
But I can only practice here with a bunch of cute new NPCs.
"Hua Long, eh." Eleanor nodded, indicating that she remembered.
"The Dragon Spear is like this, and Cloud Piercer is no exception." Asik continued, "Will a heavily armored enemy stand there stupidly, waiting for you to use Cloud Piercer to penetrate his armor? Of course not."
He turned to the second doll, bent his knees slightly, then suddenly jumped up, thrusting forward with his gun.
"The distance is too far!" Eleanor shouted quickly. She saw that Asker's gun had been used up, his arm was stretched to the extreme, and he was still about five or six centimeters away from the doll.
Then the gun blade suddenly moved forward and pierced the doll's chest.
"How could..." Eleanor was dumbfounded and shouted in disbelief.
"Watch my steps." Ask reminded.
Footsteps? Only then did Eleanor realize that Asker's stride seemed to have become longer.
"Put your left foot behind, your right foot in front, and touch the ground with your toes." Asik demonstrated again, "When your cloud piercing thrust comes out, the enemy will try to jump back to avoid your attack range."
"Just when he thought he had successfully dodged, your right foot suddenly stepped forward, suddenly extending the attack distance and hitting the opponent."
"This is called a two-stage attack. Whether it's Dragon Spear, Cloud Piercer, or Spiral Rush, it can be used as a two-stage attack to deceive the enemy."
"I see." Nora said, "Understanding the other person's psychology is really an important step."
Asker and Eleanor were shocked when they heard this, and turned around to see Nora sitting on the grass next to them, with subtle expressions on their faces at the same time.
"Don't look at me." Nora waved her hand and said, "You continue."
"Eleanor, you should go and practice the two moves and changes first." Ask cleared his throat and said.
"Okay." Eleanor nodded quickly, then turned around and ran away in panic.
"Ahem." Asik coughed a few more times, feeling embarrassment written all over his face.
The sweet-looking girl sitting on the ground was still staring straight at him, with some resentment in her eyes.
"Asker." Nora said quietly, "Have you been avoiding me recently?"
"No, how could it be?" Ask sat down next to her and looked into the distance, "It's just that there are a lot of things and I can't handle it all."
He was chatting like this, and seemed to feel that he was sitting a little far away, so he moved closer to Nora.
Coincidentally, Nora also carefully sat closer to this side at the same time, and as a result, the two of them were directly next to each other.
Ask:???
What kind of bad expansion is this? How come it is so close to the body?
Nora was also stunned for a moment. Medea's original plan for her was to keep the distance within arm's reach, but without real skin-to-skin contact. This is called a distant seduction... but she didn't say anything about this situation.
what to do!
"Ouch." Medea's voice rang in her mind, "You are so impatient..."
"Save me, Medea!" Nora cried out in her heart, "What should I do now?"
"You can sit further away first," Medea said, "pretend to be angry, and then be coquettish."
"Would he be disgusted by that?" Nora said anxiously, "I take the initiative to sit close but get angry at the same time. He will definitely think that I am inexplicable!"
"Then just pretend like nothing happened and continue chatting with him." Medea suggested.
"What are you talking about?" Nora's voice was almost crying, and Asik sniffed his nose and said unnaturally: "What smell?"
"Don't say it's perfume!" Medea said, "Just say it's shower gel or shampoo!"
"Yes, it smells like shower gel." Nora stammered, playing with her fingers uneasily, "I'm using a new brand, milk aloe vera essence..."
"Ask him if he likes it!" Medea reminded quickly.
"You..." Nora was like a deer bumping into each other. She could only suppress her heartbeat and her voice was like a gnat, "Do you like it?"
"I think it smells pretty good." Ask nodded, "What brand is it? I'll buy a bottle too."
"Don't answer directly, let him guess the brand!" Medea said excitedly, "He will definitely not be able to guess it! Then tell him to smell it carefully and then come closer!"
"I, I, I..." Nora was nervous and speechless. The shy blush spread up her neck and almost covered her entire cheek. Finally she plucked up the courage and said:
"Guess it……"
The words that followed reached his throat, but turned into a cry of surprise - because a girl emerged from the sky and hit the two of them hard.
"Who!" Ask pushed her away from him in an instant, then rolled up on the spot and protected Nora behind.
Then he saw clearly that the girl getting up from the ground was Theodora without a veil, and his face suddenly became strange.
That guy Mia! Asik was speechless. Didn’t you agree that when you find Theodora, you will teleport back to me immediately?
How did you send the target in directly!?
"Your Highness Theodora, we meet again." He quickly calmed down and said.
"Mr. Asker?" Theodora also calmed down quickly. Looking around from the corner of his eye, he realized that the situation was out of his control again, and smiled bitterly:
"It turns out you have recognized my identity a long time ago."
"Theodora?!" The girls in the distance were alerted by the voice from here, and they also gathered around. When they saw the appearance of the visitor clearly, they suddenly either had strange faces or looked stunned.
For example, Eleanor and Hilda, because they are outsiders, do not yet recognize the identity represented by the name "Theodora". As for Paige and Mia, they almost blurted out "Your Majesty".
.
"Yes." Ask said calmly, "Not only do I know who you are, I also invited you to join us... Do you still have that contract with you?"
"Not with me." Theodora replied calmly. Although she was still a little confused about the unexpected situation at this time, her good self-cultivation allowed her to still behave calmly and appropriately.
That contract... As soon as she returned to the palace, she immediately took it out and gave it to the chief mage, for fear that there might be some malicious supernatural power in it.
"It doesn't matter, I have another one here." Asker took out another contract and handed it to Theodora.
Theodora accepted the contract almost speechlessly, filled with an incredible sense of astonishment.
The reason why he teleported me from the monastery where I was imprisoned to this place was because he wanted to ask about the contract?
He can't be serious, right? Knowing that I am the emperor of the empire, he invites me to be a mercenary?
I heard Aske say again:
"Look at the pattern on the edge of the contract. Are there letters in it?"
Theodora took a closer look and saw that the retro pattern on the edge of the contract did indeed contain decorated letters. Nora leaned over to take a look, and read in succession: "Venice... Zoe... betrayal..."
"So I actually warned you, didn't I?" Asker said, "It's a pity that you didn't notice the little hint I hid in the contract."
Of course, even if Theodora really found out, it was unlikely that she would doubt her sister or overturn the original diplomatic plan just because of a strange man's hint.
But saying this now made it seem like he had foreseen it.
