Master of Science and Technology

Chapter 1098: This is not the behavior of cannon fodder

Views:

Fighting with firearms is so boring and has no viewing value. One shot solves the problem. If it doesn't solve the problem, then shoot again.

In the world of science and technology, firearms are rarely used in situations like arenas. They were only used by Westerners in duels in the early days. Even if it is used for a duel, the scene is not very entertaining. As long as both sides' marksmanship is not too bad, it is often a one-shot decision. With a "bang" gunshot, someone will always fall to the ground, and then everyone will do whatever they need to do.

It can be said that for the arena, firearms are still a bit like a bug, but who said that there is no rule that concealed weapons cannot be used in this arena competition.

Of course, firearms are not omnipotent, and they are not truly invincible in the arena.

For example, Li Mingxin discovered a problem. As long as he was not pointed at by the opponent's weapon, the hidden weapon shot from that weapon would naturally not hit him. After all, the hidden weapon is just a hidden weapon, not a flying sword. It will not turn around to catch up with the target even if the shot misses.

Therefore, when Li Mingxin was killing Yu Leyang, his figure drew an arc of attack trajectory. Anyway, the scope of this arena is not large, and he does not need to make a zigzag move. It is enough to make an arc to avoid the opponent's front.

However, since Yu Leyang made muskets, how could he not study some problems with muskets in attack? He knew very well that the target the musket had to face would not be the fixed target used in the test, and no one would just stand there stupidly and allow others to aim at it. So, how to solve the problem of aiming? On the one hand, we need to think of ways to improve our marksmanship through lots of practice. On the other hand, we need to find a way from the musket. The simplest way is to increase the range of the attack and turn the "point" attack into a "surface" attack.

Having said this, someone must have thought that among firearms that can attack "face to face", naturally it is the "shotgun". Shotguns, commonly known as spray guns, use bullets with multiple projectiles in the warhead. After being fired, they form a certain degree of scattering to achieve a range attack effect on the target.

Compared with bullets with a single warhead, the aiming requirements of shotguns are naturally less stringent. As long as the target is within the attack range of the shotgun, even if only one projectile hits, it is a hit. However, the damage caused by a projectile hit is definitely not as good as a single warhead. At most, it will cause a bloody eye. However, if it is sprayed from the front and all or most of the projectiles hit, the damage will be horrific.

However, shotguns also have disadvantages, that is, due to the divergence of the projectiles, the effective range will be worse than that of a single warhead. They can only be used in relatively close combat. The distance is completely determined by luck.

The little trick Yu Leyang just made on the musket was actually to use a small mechanism to replace the bullets in the barrel of the musket with shotguns. This shotshell is naturally made according to the caliber of a musket, so there will be no inappropriate situation. However, it is also due to the problem of caliber that the projectiles in the shotgun are smaller. It is said that the bullet sand is about the same, and the power will naturally be reduced.

This dual-bomb design, the two warheads can be quickly replaced through a small mechanism, is Yu Leyang's way to deal with the situation of difficulty in aiming at the target. Moreover, in order to ensure the hit rate, he also deliberately increased the scattering range in the design of the shotgun to maximize the attack angle.

Therefore, when Li Mingxin went around to attack from the side, although Yu Leyang's gun barrel did not lock on the opponent accurately in time, he still decisively pulled the trigger. Immediately, a ball of bullets and sand was sprayed out from the musket. It really became a spray. Almost the entire thirty-degree angle from the muzzle was covered by the bullets and sand.

As for Li Mingxin, the weapon he originally saw in Leyang was not pointed at him immediately, and he couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy in his heart, thinking that he could take down the opponent this time. Unexpectedly, in this situation, the opponent still fired the hidden weapon, and almost at the same time, he felt a sharp pain on the left side of his body.

Li Mingxin stopped, firstly because he was worried about his injuries, and secondly because the opponent's weapon was pointed directly at him. Although the other party didn't speak, he could understand the meaning. If he took another step forward, the other party would definitely launch the hidden weapon again.

Although these disciples from various sects have received hints from their sects that they want to target the people of Yuqing Sect, it does not mean that they will fight each other desperately. If he was seriously injured and defeated the people of Yuqing Sect, he would miss the next competition, but not all injuries could be recovered within three days.

Everyone has selfish motives. Although every sect is targeting the Yuqing Sect, the reason is mostly just jealousy. Unlike the Taiyi Sect, they really felt the threat from the Yuqing Sect, so they tried every means to suppress the Yuqing Sect. The fact that each sect followed Taiyi Sect and targeted Yuqing Sect together did not mean that they really had to sacrifice their lives for Taiyi Sect. They would not hesitate to sacrifice everything for Taiyi Sect. They were not that loyal.

Li Mingxin stopped. Seeing that Yu Leyang had no intention of continuing to attack, he lowered his head to check his injuries. In fact, compared to Fan Qing just now, his injuries were much lighter, but he looked scarier than Fan Qing. Fan Qing was shot in the lower abdomen, leaving a bloody hole, and the left half of his body turned into a blood spray can, but in fact the bullets only broke the skin.

"I give up!" Even though Le Yang asked, Li Mingxin simply gave up. Anyway, the injuries on his body looked so scary, no matter who he was, he could explain them. He didn't want to risk his future just for such a winning card. If he really suffered an injury that couldn't be healed in three days, what's the use of having this winner's card.

"Haha, I agree." Yu Leyang said with a smile.

Besides, the other inner disciples brought by Ye Zan also found their opponents at this time, and jumped on the ring to "discuss" with others. The other inner disciples did not have muskets like Yu Leyang, but the methods they displayed made their opponents suffer a lot.

Chen Heiniu also entered the ring. His already very strong arms were covered with a pair of metal arm armor. Facing the opponent's dazzling swordsmanship, he directly reached out and grabbed the opponent's long sword. With a loud shout, Chen Heiniu suddenly exerted force on his hand, and the opponent's long sword in his hand was crushed into a concave and twisted iron rod.

"I surrender!" Seeing Chen Heiniu's hand like a cattail leaf grabbing his head, thinking that he could not avoid and resisting his opponent, he quickly shouted and surrendered.

In fact, among the inner disciples brought by Ye Zan, Chen Heiniu is considered a relatively normal person, and this world is not without fists and kicks. As for the mighty-looking metal arm armor, it's not that unusual, but it's just a bit thicker than common arm armor.

"boom!"

On a ring, a ball of fire suddenly erupted, and a flaming man flew out of the fire and fell heavily under the ring. Seeing this, the people around him hurriedly stepped forward and beat and extinguished the flames on the man, revealing a man in rags and charred black.

On the ring, the fire quickly dissipated, revealing that the person standing on the ring was an inner disciple of Yuqing Sect. In one hand of this inner disciple, there are several small balls of different colors. No one can tell what is in the small balls. However, everyone still clearly remembers that the violent explosion of fire just now was caused by the opponent throwing a small ball into the most basic fireball technique.

On an arena, a large amount of fog surged up, so that all the onlookers below the stage could not see clearly what was happening in the fog. However, in less than a moment, a scream came from the fog, and then a figure came out of the fog and landed under the ring. His body was covered with ice needles, which was worse than being sprayed by a shotgun. To be miserable.

Is this the inner disciple of Yuqing Sect

Such a disciple is actually an inner disciple, so what will it be like to be a direct disciple

The disciples of various sects, as well as the sects who were watching the battle with their disciples, and even the ancestor of Yuanying, were all shocked by the expressions of the inner disciples of Yuqing Sect. No one expected that the characters who were supposed to be cannon fodder actually became real elites one by one. Although the methods seemed quite weird, they were really effective.

In the live broadcast room, it was even more lively. At first, everyone urged the people from the Yuqing Sect to come on stage. If they didn't come on stage, they would be lack of courage. Later, they condemned the inner disciples of Ye Zan Sect for taking the lead. Now, some say that the methods used by the disciples of Yuqing Sect violate the rules, and some say that those inner disciples must be fake. In short, no matter what, you can find something to say. There are also some people who are strongly curious about the methods of those inner disciples and discuss the various principles involved.

However, although some things seem simple, if no one breaks through the veil, others may not be able to figure it out even if they think about it. Regarding the musket used by Yu Leyang, many people speculated that it was based on the principle of a crossbow, but the shape does not look like it can be equipped with a crossbow arm and a crossbow string. What's more, Yu Leyang's musket shot out a piece of sand directly from behind, which was beyond what a crossbow could do. Some people were also curious about the changes in the fireball technique, and they all speculated on what was inside the small ball thrown into the fireball.

Not to mention the reactions of others, when it comes to the Yuqing Sect, everyone at the Yuqing Sect is actually quite surprised by the performance of the inner disciples. Although, these people, whether they are at the Foundation Establishment level or the Golden elixir master, have also listened to some of Ye Zan's lectures, and they are not unfamiliar with those strange theories. However, it was the first time for them to actually see those theories used in actual combat.

Those direct disciples attended Ye Zan's classes more often, probably second only to these inner disciples. Therefore, their understanding of what Ye Zan said is not necessarily worse than that of the inner disciples. However, direct disciples all have masters, and what they mainly need to learn are the skills taught by their masters. Unlike those inner disciples, since they don't have a master yet, it is easier to accept what Ye Zan said.

"You have also attended a lot of lessons from Uncle Ye, but why haven't I seen you become more capable? Did you choose the wrong teacher as a teacher?" A Jindan master from the Yuqing Sect, after seeing the inner sect, After the performance of the disciples, he secretly compared it with his own disciples in his heart, and couldn't help but get angry and scold the disciples around him.

"But master, it seems that last time when the disciple was practicing magic, he tried to use some of the things taught by Master Ye's uncle, but master, you reprimanded the disciple for his evil ways..." The disciple said a little aggrieved.

Indeed, those things Ye Zan taught would easily make people think they were not serious if they didn’t know more about them.

Many of the ascetics in this world are very particular about so-called orthodoxy, and will always have strong resistance to something that takes a different approach. No matter where you are, there will always be some rigid and conservative people, and the Yuqing Sect is no exception. However, in the Yuqing Sect, the person who proposed these things was Ye Zan, who was the same generation as Mo Ru, so no one openly opposed it. At most, they just told their disciples not to learn it.

But now, what Ye Zan taught has been verified to a certain extent in the ring. Regardless of whether the theory is correct or not, at least the effect of this in actual combat can be seen with eyes. Therefore, people who originally felt unacceptable or even disdainful of Ye Zan's things couldn't help but feel a little moved.

After all, the sect is not a religion, and the ascetics are not fanatical believers. Ascetics still pay more attention to practicality. Whether it is in terms of cultivation or life-saving, as long as it proves to be beneficial to them, it is not very difficult to accept it.

"You mean, it's all my master's fault?" The golden elixir master said to his disciple in an unkind tone.

"Disciple doesn't dare." The disciple immediately said with a grimace. The world is big and the Master is the greatest. Who dares to say that the Master is wrong? Even if the master is really wrong, it is not something that a disciple can judge arbitrarily. This is the rule of this world.

"Forget it, let me ask you, how much have you learned in terms of skills like them?" the golden elixir master asked his disciple.

"Although I haven't practiced in depth some of the methods, I can still use some magic skills freely." The disciple also felt that his master seemed to be tempted, so he didn't hide anything anymore.

Sure enough, after hearing the disciple's answer, the golden elixir master did not get angry, but nodded and said: "Well, in this case, I can feel relieved, you can go find someone to discuss and learn from each other."

In fact, in the Yuqing Sect's team, conversations like this are not limited to this pair of masters and disciples. Many people who usually don't understand or approve of what Ye Zan teaches have asked similar questions to their respective disciples after seeing the performance of the inner disciples. After receiving affirmative answers from their disciples and referring to the performance of the inner disciples, they gained more confidence in their disciples, and then they sent their disciples to the ring to participate in the competition.
