Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 44: Uncle Sam's rock solid support

Views:

The so-called "Golden Outpost" is actually a landmark on the border of the Omar Empire. It is a half-collapsed clay sculpture clock tower, indicating that there was a human gathering point here a hundred years ago.

But now, there isn't even a decent mechanical city here, and it's so remote that no normal person would pass by.

But here is the only way for the Omar Empire to sneak into the "Glory City".

... .

The existence of the "Glory City" seems not to be a big secret to a certain class of people.

At least judging from the prosperity of "Golden Outpost", there are a lot of hunters flowing here.

All the buildings here are to serve hunters, including custom taverns, gun shops, potion shops, equipment supplies, and mechanical repair points.

There are also various speculators here waiting for the hunters who come back from there to buy their goods as soon as possible.

The information transmitted by the "Thorn Bird Chamber of Commerce" rapidly fermented, and the well-informed large-scale wilderness hunting teams all knew the news about the ruins and mineral deposits in the Glory City.

Professional hunting teams quickly gathered towards this small town from all directions, entering the mountainous area one after another.

When Ren and the others arrived, there were already ten times more hunters than usual.

The hundreds of kilometers from here to the "Alcoron Mountains" to the west are mostly rugged mountain roads. The large mechanical city cannot pass, so the only option is to walk, or some miniature mountain troop carriers.

Moreover, this journey will pass through a plateau and mountainous area, where powerful monsters appear all year round. The environment and degree of danger are even more complicated than the "Bakonia Highlands" that Renn mistakenly entered before.

For this reason, the old butler Benjamin hired an old hunting team called the "Mountain Antelope Hunting Group" as a guide.

Although the leader of this wilderness hunting group is only a second-level [advanced person], there are only a dozen people in size. But they are famous old guides who often take this route. At least, many hunting groups that were stronger than them disappeared on this road, but they remained active for five years.

The countess still had no intention of walking on the ground. She looked like a pampered rich lady with no fingers stained by the beauty of spring.

Then, I don’t know where the old housekeeper got a mountain mechanical personnel carrier.

This spider-like eight-legged steam machine can walk quickly in complex mountainous environments, and the cockpit is very stable due to the complex suspension shock absorption.

Renn looked at this "black technology" with envy, but he thought that this thing was definitely not cheap.

The countess warmly invited Ren to ride with her, but in that narrow cabin, two people were crowded together, and there would definitely be skin contact.

He Lei felt that he couldn't control it and didn't dare to go beyond it, so he simply stayed away.

So, he chose to walk like everyone else.

... ..

On this day, the team set off and headed deep into the endless mountains.

The weather has been good these days, there is no rain, and the mountain roads are easy to walk.

After spending a few days together, Renn had become quite familiar with the countess' bodyguard, Uncle Sam, who said he was a third-level shield knight.

For ordinary people, those who could advance to the third level of [Demon Hunter] would be considered top-notch masters, and every one of them would be extremely proud.

But this honest and strong man always said that his modest martial arts skills were mediocre.

He will also patiently answer some of Ren's simple introductory questions.

The fog in the mountains is much lighter than that in the plains, and the scenery is good.

There is a dense primitive jungle here, and it can also be regarded as the fragrance of flowers and birds.

Occasionally, when the breeze blows, you can hear the "swishing" sound like the sound of waves coming from the sea, which is fresh and sweet.

No, the journey was a bit boring, so Renn walked to Sam again and began to ask for advice.

He wanted to learn some martial arts in the martial arts order and needed a knowledgeable guide.

Ren asked with a smile: "Uncle Sam, I have just advanced to the extraordinary level and want to learn fighting boxing. Do you have any good recommendations?"

"Hehe... Why do you, a doctor, want to learn fighting skills?"

Sam joked, showing his trademark honest smile.

But he didn't really go into details, and went straight back: "If you want to learn fighting boxing, you must first understand what route you plan to advance to after breaking through the second genetic lock."

"What's the point? I just want to learn some entry-level skills, and I also need to consider the routes after the second level?"

Ren was sincerely asking for advice, and this was a blind spot in his knowledge.

Although he is determined to advance to the "combat doctor" sequence, this does not prevent him from learning some close martial arts skills before finding the appropriate exclusive skills.

The extraordinary system in this world is like this. As long as you want to learn it, you can learn any professional skills.

Even if you are a warrior, you can also learn to rub small fireballs.

But the end result is that compared with professional magicians with high elemental affinity, you will get flames when you rub them out, while others will be fireballs as big as watermelons.

Only by learning skills that match your awakened extraordinary abilities can you maximize your combat power.

Wren's "Combat Doctor" sequence awakens the attributes of high strength, high toughness, and high perception. The martial arts of the Fighter sequence are most suitable.

"Of course there are details!"

Sam introduced: "After the second level of the extraordinary fighter sequence, there will be two most mainstream branches, one is the [Qigong Master] who practices internal strength, and the other is the [Martial Arts Master] who practices skills. Although there are other non-mainstream sequences, There are slight differences, but it is roughly an extension of these two categories.”

He said, and patiently explained: "You'd better decide which path to take now. The muscles and inner breath developed by the two sequences are completely different. One focuses on 'controlling force with Qi' Continuous fighting, one focusing on 'skill burst' to kill enemies quickly."

"So this is ah"

Ren's eyes suddenly widened. This was the first time he heard this statement.

After thinking about it, he asked with a smile: "Uncle Sam, which one do you think is more powerful?"

"In any extraordinary profession, there is no saying which sequence is absolutely the most powerful, only the strongest extraordinary person."

Sam shook his head and smiled.

It seemed that he had heard this question from many young people.

He spoke from his experience and said: "Even if there is a difference in the quality of the advanced potion, it does not necessarily mean that the extraordinary person who advanced the silver potion will be stronger than the black iron potion. The acquired hard work and experience will bring great benefits to the extraordinary person. The increase is far more important than potions... On the road to transcendence, potions are just the beginning, and practice is the process!"

"oh... "

Ren nodded, seeming to understand, and asked another question: "Uncle, which branch do you think is more competitive?"

Without thinking, Sam replied: "In terms of choice, more than 70% of fighting supers will choose the [Martial Arts Master] branch, because this sequence has a wider range of advancements and can form combat effectiveness in a short period of time."

Having said this, he changed the topic again: "But from the perspective of top-level experts, [Qigong Master] obviously has more stamina. Although it is more difficult to advance, once you advance to the fourth level [Demon Hunting Master], this sequence of The advantages will become bigger and bigger..."

Ren vaguely understood. Isn't this the difference between Huashan Sword Sect and Qi Sect

He couldn't decide which one he should study instead, so he asked, "Can I study both?"

"It's possible... but it's complicated but not perfect. People's energy is limited. No matter which branch it is, it requires a lot of energy to learn. Moreover, there is another important point... "

Uncle Sam smiled and added: "From your medical point of view, the physical attributes awakened by the two branches of magic medicine are also very different. [Martial Arts Master] focuses on the growth of white muscle fibers, [Qigong Master] focuses on red muscle fibers; white muscles focus on the explosion , Red muscle is the master of endurance. There is not much difference in general martial arts, but the effects of some exclusive stunts and secrets are very different."

"oh... "

Renn completely understood the technical terminology and nodded frequently.

At this time, an imperceptible glint flashed across Sam's eyes, and he added lightly: "When you really meet a master, these small gaps are enough to cause fatal flaws."

After listening to these words, Ren always felt as if he was listening to a lecture by a master, and he didn't realize how powerful it was.

He tilted his head and looked at Sam's burly body, smiled and joked: "Uncle Sam, you seem to know everything. Aren't you very powerful?"

At this time, Sam showed his trademark silly smile again and said extremely humbly: "I am good at talking, but my martial arts skills are mediocre."

"..."

Renn was noncommittal and didn't go into detail.

Anyway, the third level [Demon Hunter] is already out of reach for him now.

Then, he turned his eyes, showed a wicked smile, and said: "Uncle Sam, can you teach me some common martial arts skills for warriors?"

Sam seemed to have expected it and said with a smile: "What do you want to learn?"

I don't know if it was because of the countess, but Ren always felt that Sam was very polite to him.

He thought for a while and said: "Well... learn from those who can save your life! It is best to learn from those who can injure the enemy... "

Sam raised his brows, selected one from his knowledge base, and said: "There is a universal martial art among strength warriors, 'Iron Mountain Knife'... Three stages of charging, collision, shock, and collapse! Three stages of damage , block, hurt, knock away... This is the martial skill I can think of that best meets your requirements. Do you want to learn it?"

Ren's eyes lit up: "Learn!"

Sam didn't hesitate and walked directly to a giant tree with a diameter of nearly one meter on the side of the mountain road. "You watch, I use this move to exert force... The force rises from the ground, runs through the waist, and collapses in the shoulders and arms!" "

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure swayed, and he rushed two meters forward and leaned directly against the big tree!

There was only a "pop" sound, as if time stood still for a moment, and then in a very short period of time, another "click" sound was heard from the second stage of force.

"Bang"!

With three steps of force, the giant tree seemed to have been blown apart by dynamite, sawdust flew into the air, and was broken by Sam!

After the demonstration, Sam patted the sawdust on his shoulder without losing his breath: "Did you see clearly?"

This was obviously to let Ren see clearly, so the demonstration was deliberately slowed down. How to push the feet, the sequence of muscle exertion, and how to luck... were all demonstrated in great detail.

But even so, the power is still amazing.

"See clearly. Wow... Uncle Sam, you are amazing!"

There were little stars in Renn's eyes, and he felt admiration from the bottom of his heart.

Even if he didn't see the details clearly, "Zhi Nao" could see them clearly.

This move seems ordinary, but the power it exerts is also terrifying.

Is this because Uncle Sam has obviously restrained himself? If he really wants to hit someone, his bones will be shattered and his blood will collapse

Uncle Sam touched the back of his head, smiled and said modestly: "It's not a powerful move, most soldiers can do this..."

Little did he know that Qiaowei's words made the soldiers of the "Mountain Antelope Hunting Group" in the distance look strange when they saw the movement coming here.

"Iron mountain leaning" is a skill, but not everyone can break a giant tree in an understatement like you.

At least, the second-level hunting leader felt that he couldn't do it himself.

At this moment, they also recognized that the Countess' bodyguard was a great expert.

... .

At night, repair.

Ren meditated and fell into meditation.

Setting program: Intelligent Brain, "Iron Mountain Reliance" for dream practice!

Not long after, in the dream, the scene of Uncle Sam demonstrating breaking a giant tree during the day was played repeatedly.

Ren's expression was serious and he began to imitate and learn little by little.
