Diablo Destruction

Chapter 105 Negative Status and Combo Skills

After asking some adventurers at the North District training ground, I soon saw Kasha in the Amazon training camp. The Amazon training camp, as the name suggests, has two main venues, namely the archery practice ground. In the javelin training ground, the warriors in the dark world are divided into several levels: they are junior students who are not even opponents of a fallen demon. After a period of training in the academy, these students can generally become qualified soldiers. If they have the qualifications If they do, they can continue to be promoted to mercenaries or even job transferees. As for the archery range in the North District, only warriors with a minimum soldier level are eligible to go, and these students can only practice in the training camp.

Kasha is currently wandering around the archery practice ground, holding a long, thin stick in his hand, and from time to time he will use the stick to hit a student's waist or leg: "Stand up straight."

The students who were reminded immediately straightened their waists. It was a great blessing for them to be taught by Master Kasha.

Sweat, could this be the legendary devil instructor? I started to retreat in my heart.

I just didn’t expect that Kasha would be so serious at ordinary times and actually come to the training ground to teach these students in person. The warrior leader who only knew how to drink and tease people in my mind immediately became a hard-working and responsible senior. This is much better than the warrior leader who only knows how to study. Farah is much stronger.

"Hey, boy, you're here. I thought that old guy Farah would be playing late." Kasha walked towards me carelessly.

"Lord Kasha, please don't use the ambiguous word 'play', okay?" I had nothing to say in response to Kasha's teasing.

"Haha. It's okay, it's okay, you're here. Let's officially start our course." Kasha patted me on the shoulder and almost threw me into the smelly ditch nearby. Damn, it's necessary to use That much strength?

Then, I followed Kasha. When they arrived at the javelin training ground of the training camp, there were many students practicing inside, but Kasha quickly sent them to the archery training ground. Speaking of the Amazon training camp, it was really spectacular. The other six major professions were all There are men and women, but due to career preference, the ratio will be larger. For example, among paladins and barbarians, the majority are men, while wizards are mostly women, druids and assassins are more balanced, and the necromancer profession is more balanced. Because the work he does is a bit b-t, it is very rare. I have not seen many of them so far, and I have never seen a female necromancer. Haha, when I first met Linya, I mistook her for a female necromancer.

As for the profession of Amazons, it is the most peculiar. I have never heard of male Amazons. Of course, they may exist, but they are very rare.

So, I saw Amazon Bootcamp. Women account for almost 80%, and the remaining men, in my opinion, can only reach the level of mercenaries in the future, although I am also looking forward to seeing the appearance of a male Amazon, hehe.

After everyone left, Kasha and I were the only two people left in the huge training ground. Kasha stood opposite me at this time. He changed his previous carelessness and looked very serious. The tense atmosphere made me swallow a mouthful of saliva unconsciously.

"Oh my, what should I give you some guidance on?"

This solid atmosphere lasted for a long time. Kasha suddenly grabbed her fiery red hair, took out her iconic large wine bottle and took a sip. What she said almost made me fall over. on the ground.

"Master Kasha, shouldn't you have thought about this kind of thing when you proposed to teach me?"

"Boy, that's what I say, but there is really too much to teach, and with your current level, it doesn't seem practical."

"..."

If I hadn't seen Kasha looking really troubled, I would have even thought that she just called me here to hurt my self-confidence.

"Lord Kasha, why do you always call me 'boy, boy'? I remember Akara once introduced you..." I twitched the corner of my mouth, not liking this term.

"Because, well, if everyone has to be called by name, wouldn't it be a lot to remember? It would be more convenient to call everyone by the same name." Kasha laughed, picked up the bottle and took a sip as if to cover up.

Lord Akara, are you sure there is really nothing wrong with the two people you introduced to me?

"So Master Kasha, have you decided what you want to teach me?" After a while, I couldn't help but continue to ask.

Kasha seemed to be really trying hard to undermine my self-confidence. She stood and thought for a while before slowly speaking.

"Okay, I've already said it, then I will give you a good guide. However, before that, I want to tell you that I am not a qualified teacher, so you can't learn anything from me. In a few days, all I can do is probably..."

Having said this, Kasha paused. In an instant, the air seemed to be condensed into a solid substance, and the entire sky came to life. A surge of pressure came from all directions, making me almost suffocate and fall to the ground. Even standing up was an extremely luxurious thing, and the source of the pressure was Kasha, who was smiling just now. At this time, she As if he were a different person, his body exuded a terrifying aura, like a bloodthirsty demon god. It took countless battles and countless deaths to cultivate the endless momentum and killing power. The intention, and this aura that was so powerful that it became substantial, raised the dust on the site high. The dust in the sky blocked the scorching sun and darkened the entire sky. However, Kashana was not a tall figure. Shi was like the master under this dim sky, overlooking the entire earth.

"What I can do is probably make you deeply understand your real shortcomings."

Every word out of Kasha's mouth seemed to have a powerful force, hitting my heart just when I thought I was in doom. This pressure suddenly disappeared without a trace. I immediately lay on the ground, breathing heavily. I had never felt that the air was so lovely. My face and body were covered with cold sweat. I looked up at Kasha and saw her. But it looks like it has nothing to do with me.

Is this the strength of the strong? I am really just a frog in the well, just relying on my momentum. It already left me powerless to fight back.

"Boy, your willpower is really weak. It's worse than ordinary job transfers." Kasha frowned dissatisfiedly when he saw me sweating profusely.

Of course, I am a serious otaku who came from a peaceful world. I can train my willpower as long as I can, and I have reached this level in one year. It can already be called a miracle. I rolled my eyes, but I couldn't argue.

"Forget it, things like willpower are an accessory of experience. As you practice for a long time and gain rich experience, you will naturally have it, so it's okay to leave it alone." Kasha said nonchalantly.

"Then. Let's start training. Well, what kind of instruction? As for bow and arrow, I heard that little girl Sharna has already taught you. Although her level is not yet at home, but when it comes to teaching novices, maybe It's more suitable than me, so forget it. As for the javelin, you're not an Amazon, and it has no practical significance."

Kasha said minding her own business, frowning and thinking hard, wait, bow and arrow? javelin?

"Lord Kasha, is your profession an Amazon?" I asked in surprise.

"Ah? How do you know? Did you spill the beans? Oh, it's true. There's nothing we can do. Anyway, there's no need for you to hide anything." Kasha patted his head, looking indifferent.

Talk. What exactly does “for me” mean?

"Okay, it's decided."

Just when I was wondering, Kasha finally had a clue and slapped the long stick in his hand hard into the palm of his hand.

"Boy, I will use these few days to let you experience one of the skills that a strong person must master."

"What technique?" 55~~Finally back to the topic.

Kasha waved the long stick in his hand a few times, and did not answer me immediately, but asked with a smile.

"The so-called fighting, to put it bluntly, is nothing more than attack and defense. Boy, when you are practicing alone, you must have a relatively deep understanding of these two things, right?"

I nodded, acknowledging it.

"So, how do you feel when you are attacked by an enemy?"

"Feel?"

I frowned: "It hurts a lot."

"Boy, I didn't mean to say this." Kasha said with a headache.

"For example, what kind of situation and place will occur." She gestured and said. It seemed that she did not have much experience as a teacher, but I understood what she meant.

"Well, if you don't transform, it won't matter if you are hit by the little devil. If you are hit by a monster like Yati (the second evolved form of the giant beast), your attacks will sometimes be interrupted."

I said a little depressed. This situation often happens during battles. Monster attacks on the body can often cause some troubles besides damage to myself.

"Yes, that's right." Kasha snapped her fingers and said happily.

"Generally speaking, if you are attacked by a monster, there will be several states. The first one is what you just said. Being hit by a weak monster like a little devil will not have any impact at all, because your The strength and agility are much higher than that.”

"In the second case, of course, when the monster's strength and agility are not much different from yours, it won't be a big deal. At most, it will slightly hinder your mobility, causing some deviation in your attack damage, or It’s just a little lowered.”

"And starting from the third type, it becomes more troublesome. When the monster's power is almost the same as or even higher than yours, its attack will sometimes have a great impact on you. At least it will make your attack less powerful and accurate. The rate will be reduced, or worse, your attacks will be missed, or even interrupted, paused, and frozen."

Kasha's tone slowly became more cautious.

"The fourth type is even worse. Your strength and agility are very different from those of many. If you are hit in this case, there is often a certain chance of being knocked away, or even being temporarily stunned."

Kasha’s words surprised me, yes! Usually when dealing with small demons and the like, if you transform into a bear, you can often slap them away or make them dizzy. It feels great, this is the difference between strength and agility, but I have never considered, if one day, the enemy's strength and agility are much higher than mine, then what will happen to me?

Seeing my sudden realization, Kasha said with some surprise: "Didn't your master teach you these things?"

I nodded honestly.

"Oh my god. What kind of master is this? He's even more irresponsible than me." Kasha covered her face with her hands and said in pain.

"..." Regarding Kasha's words, I really don't know how to complain more appropriately.

"Okay, let's continue. Seeing that you still know nothing, I'll explain it in detail." Kasha continued helplessly.

"Remember, for you, a Druid, who has neither the agility of an assassin nor the dexterity of an Amazon, strength and agility are very important. Don't always think that being able to wear those equipment is enough. In this case, it will be easy for you to be knocked out by those monsters in the future."

To emphasize the seriousness. Kashana took the wooden spear in his hand and made a swing to knock it away.

"Aren't wizards and necromancers very dangerous?" I suddenly thought.

"Oh, why are you so out of your mind? When have you ever heard of wizards and necromancers fighting enemies at close range? If a mage in a team is approached by a powerful enemy, it means that the team is almost finished. Even if it’s not over now, it will definitely be over in the future.”

Kasha and his caustic tone sealed the fate of such a team, then overturned it within seconds.

"Of course. If this mage or his team is very powerful and experienced, it's another matter. Didn't Lord Tal Rasha also experience alone as a wizard back then? I'm just referring to the general rookie team. To take a step back. Even if the enemy is really close, the mage may not be able to fight back. Don't forget, the wizard's ice-encapsulated armor can freeze the enemy. Even if he is knocked away or stunned, it can effectively prevent the enemy from continuing. Pursuing, the Necromancer's bone armor also offset part of the power.

Kasha took the trouble to explain these basic knowledge to me, which made me suddenly feel enlightened. It seems that every profession has its own set of self-defense techniques.

"So Lord Kasha, is there any connection between these differences in strength and the skills you are about to show me?" Hearing Kasha's explanation, I am becoming more and more interested.

"That's right, the technique I'm going to show you later is exactly to take advantage of the difference in strength to put the enemy in a state of passive defense or even being beaten for a long time. This technique is very useful against enemies who are small in strength and fast in speed. It is especially useful when you know this technique. Knowing this technique may not necessarily make you a strong person, but a strong person must master this technique." Kasha said eloquently.

"What is this technique called?" My interest has been completely aroused by Kasha.

"Combo attacks!" Kasha picked her nails and said casually.

I almost fell over. Why does the name of this move sound so familiar?

"Don't think I'm talking about the superficial moves that rookies use to chop around with a big knife. At best, they can only be described as 'coherent'. Advanced combos are not so easy to master." Kasha looked at me. With a dull look, he immediately said seriously.

Then, Kasha began to explain to me the principles of advanced combos.

In general, the so-called advanced combo is a technique used when the enemy's strength is smaller than or similar to one's own. If you want to master this technique, you must first understand the strength of the opponent's strength, and then According to the strength of the opponent, use appropriate power to attack, causing the opponent to appear in three states: interruption, pause, and freeze. The power must be controlled well. If the power is too low, it will not be able to create these three states. If the power is too high, it will be easy to knock the enemy away. This skill alone is already very troublesome, let alone the difficulty of controlling the power. . It is already very difficult to judge the opponent's strength. Even monsters of the same type will have fluctuations in strength. It is not easy to judge the moment of attack.

Then, there is the body part to be attacked. Different monsters have different sizes and shapes, so the probability of negative status appearing is not high. At this time, you must judge which part of the attack has the highest probability of appearing, and the effect and duration of attacking different parts are completely different. This does not require a lot of combat experience. It's simply impossible to do.

The third is to consolidate and strengthen. You may face more than one enemy. How to avoid attacks from other enemies and stand in the most advantageous position to continue the combo. I don’t need to say more about the difficulty.

In short, to describe it in one sentence, with my current strength, it is simply impossible to learn this skill. Even if it takes more than ten or twenty years, I may not be able to fully master it.

Seeing my sad face, Kasha said seriously: "Boy, do you remember what I just said? My guidance is not to let you learn anything. It is just to give you an understanding and a direction. This In this world, there is never a shortcut to learn advanced combat skills. Don’t think that you can learn anything from me in just a few days. All I can do is point out a little trick for you. It’s just a path. If you want to truly become a strong person, you can only rely on yourself to keep working hard, working hard, and working harder.”

Kasha's words were like a basin of cold water poured on my hot-headed face, yes! What's wrong with me? Could it be that those people have seen too much? I get excited when I hear teachings and advice. I always think that I can learn some skills and then my strength will increase significantly. However, I ignore the most important fact - being down-to-earth, step by step, bit by bit. Accumulation is the key to becoming a strong person, and there is nothing easy about it.

Thinking of this, I took a deep breath, tried hard to calm down, and bowed to Kasha sincerely: "Thank you, Lord Kasha, for reminding me. I have understood that I will never be too ambitious in the future."

Seeing that I had woken up from my frenzy, Kasha continued with a teachable expression.

"Although I can't let you learn anything, in these few days, I will let you experience this feeling. This will still be helpful to your future fighting skills."

"Experience it?" After calming down, I suddenly felt something bad.

"Yes, boy, did you know? There are many ways to prevent being hit by enemies in a row."

Without waiting for my answer, Kasha continued: "First, the simplest way is to strengthen your strength and defense so that the enemy cannot shake you. Then, it is to dodge or block. Of course, a real master will not let you If you have this opportunity, it depends on who has better skills. In addition, when you cannot avoid being attacked, you can also adjust the angle of the attacked part to weaken the enemy's attack strength and make it more powerful. Attacks cannot cause negative status to oneself. Also, there are some special equipment that can reduce the duration of negative status, such as 'quick recovery to strike' and the like, but such attributes are generally only equipment with Dark Gold or above. It will appear only then, so don’t expect it now.”

"As for the last one, by constantly getting used to these negative states, the duration can be shortened to a certain extent." Kasha smiled sinisterly, which immediately gave me goosebumps.

"But the enemies I have to face now probably haven't mastered advanced combo skills yet. Do you think it would be better for me to see other more useful things?" Kasha has already said it so clearly, I How could he not understand what she meant.

"Stupid, the reason why I told you the principle of combo is just to use it as an example to let you know how serious it is when a negative state occurs. You can't always fight against monsters that are weaker than you, right? Even if they can't combo, how to effectively reduce the negative status during the battle is also crucial. You who have already had combat experience should also be able to deeply understand this."

"In other words, when you said you wanted me to see advanced techniques, the main purpose was just to get me used to the negative state?" I said in complete despair.

"That's it. If you don't have anything to ask, let's get started." Kasha raised the long stick in his hand and showed two rows of shining teeth with a smile, as if a wild beast had taken a fancy to its prey, which made me ruthless. I shivered hard.
