Early in the morning, Todd found a deserted corner and began to conduct surprise training for the four people who were about to perform on stage.
Barbarian sisters Parli and Parni, one on the left and one on the right, held Ackerman's arms. They looked like a newlywed couple.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Todd motioned for the four of them to pick up their weapons and stand on both sides.
"First, let me see the real effect of your actual battle." Todd put his palms together and waved towards the middle: "Just treat this as a gladiatorial arena and start a formal fight."
Casper uses a tower shield and a dagger, Ackerman uses a short bow and dagger, and the Barbarian sisters all use two scimitars.
After a little preparation, the four people divided into two groups and soon fought together.
Listening to the constant sound of weapons hitting his ears, Todd only watched for half a minute before he pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache and shouted: "Stop, stop!"
The fight between these four people, Casper vs. Parli, Ackerman vs. Parni, has no tactical arrangement and team cooperation at all. They fight independently. It looks like they are just fighting, and there is no enjoyment at all.
Casper and Parli were slightly better. Although their movements were stiff and their steps were rigid, they looked like they were fighting. As for Ackerman and Parni, these two guys were not fighting at all, but **.
, it’s still the kind of ** that makes people look very hot.
Browsing, body touching, hugging...
Todd smashed the stone slab beside him and shouted at the four of them: "Do you really know the seriousness of the matter? You will go to the arena at noon tomorrow! If you don't do it well, all of you will
They will all be executed!"
Looking at the pile of stone debris at Todd's feet, Ackerman swallowed and said respectfully: "Mr. Boyle, we follow your orders."
Recalling the movie clips he had seen in the soul world, Todd first asked Casper to stand in front and Ackerman to stand behind him: "You two, one in front and one behind, the bower will attack, and the shielder will attack."
Main defense. In the gladiatorial battle, teamwork must be formed.”
Then he said to Parli and Parni: "Both of you use double swords. Your main tactic is to find the enemy's weaknesses and attack them."
After describing the team's tactics, Todd began to walk to the court in person and analyze the sequence of shots and the movement of positions based on the action clips in the movie.
"After appearing on the stage, Casper walked directly opposite the opponent, set up a shield, and protected the archer behind him. Ackerman, how is your archery level?"
"My ancestors have been hunters for seven generations. The arrows I shoot are a hundred steps away..."
"Don't lie, tell me the truth! Although it is a performance, if there is even the slightest mistake, someone will die!"
After listening to Todd's advice, Ackerman scratched the back of his head, thought about it and said: "Within ten steps, you can shoot an object the size of a silver coin; within thirty steps, you can hit an object the size of a face; if you go beyond
Fifty steps, it’s hard to say..."
Todd nodded: "This accuracy is completely sufficient. You hide behind Casper, go over his shoulder, and shoot an arrow towards Parli's right shoulder. But beforehand, you have to clear the arrows of all the arrows."
Replace them all.”
Ackerman asked doubtfully: "Replace the arrow?"
"That's right, replace the original metal arrowheads with something like this." Todd said as he took out a pile of dark stones from his arms.
Parli came over, looked at these strange stones, and asked, "What is this?"
"Flint, you can often see these things in blacksmith shops. They are heavy and have low lethality. The most important thing is that when they collide with metal, they will have such an effect..."
Todd picked up a piece of flint and lightly scratched Parley's scimitar. A dazzling and brilliant spark lit up the nearby air.
Listening to the exclamations of the four people around him, Todd shook the flint in his hand, thinking that in movies, flint and magnesium powder are often used to create the effect of sparks from weapons.
He then said to Parly: "When Ackerman's arrow shoots at you, you raise your swords and cross them on your right shoulder to block the arrow."
Todd turned his head to Parney who was at the end: "You go around Casper and attack Ackerman who is hiding behind the shield with your sword."
He took out another thing from his arms - a bladder from a pig. Under everyone's astonished gaze, Todd placed the bulging animal organ on Palny's right leg, and then pierced the bladder with a sword.
.
Bright red blood splashed out and sprinkled on the ground one meter away, startling everyone.
Casper's eyes widened and he looked at Todd: "What is this?"
Todd secretly thought that there was ferric hydroxide and sodium chloride in it, which was almost the same as blood in terms of color and shape.
But he could only answer: "You don't need to worry about what these things are, as long as you know that once this thing is broken, it can simulate the effect of injury. Before use, it can be tied to the shoulders, legs, back, etc. to be concealed and safe.
place.”
Ackerman picked up the shriveled pig bladder and exclaimed: "This is really amazing."
Todd explained the instructions for the use of spark props and artificial blood again, and then continued to explain the details of the gladiatorial fight. While explaining, he taught by words and deeds, and personally accompanied the four people to move and move.
Twelve hours passed unknowingly, and the afterglow of the setting sun was projected on the earth. Todd sat in the shade of the open space, watching the four gladiators rehearsing tomorrow's battle over and over again.
From stiff movements to smooth movements, from expressionless to vivid, from knotted legs to skillful movements, the four people in front of them finally had a certain degree of tacit understanding and cooperation after experiencing countless setbacks and failures.
The battle performances performed may have been a bit immature in the eyes of critical film critics in previous generations, but in the eyes of people in the Middle Ages who had never seen movie-level battle scenes, it was enough to amaze everyone.
Especially Ackerman, this handsome young man who is only twenty-four years old is simply a genius in acting. He has innate talents in movements, expressions and movements. As a companion
When there were problems in the performance, or even unexpected incidents, he was able to adapt to the situation and ensure that the scene could go on smoothly.
If this guy were to live in his previous life, with his face and talent, he might really be able to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry.
Thinking of this, Todd shook his head helplessly, stood up from the ground, and whispered to himself: "It has been four years since I came to this world, and I am still thinking about things in my previous life..."
Seeing his solemn expression, the four people who were rehearsing for the battle stopped what they were doing. Ackerman looked at Todd and asked carefully: "Mr. Boyle, is there something wrong with our actions?"
Todd came back to his senses and waved his hand: "It's not your business... Regarding tomorrow's gladiatorial battle, I can't help you much. You should hurry up and rehearse well."
After saying goodbye to the four people one by one, Todd returned to his residence, opened the soul world as usual, and began to call Rachel to enter.
After the latter entered the research institute of the soul world, the first thing he did was to rummage through the cabinets in search of ice cream.
While eating a cold drink with a small spoon and turning on the computer on the table, Rachel displayed a map on the screen and said to Todd: "Here, I have found what you want, this is Al
