The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

【Congratulations! You have experienced an epiphany and unlocked the additional special effects of melee combat skills: Accuracy lv1 (passive)]

[Precision lv1 (passive) effect: You have a better understanding of your own combat skills and weapons in your hands, and can accurately control the power and landing position of each move. This slightly reduces the possibility of the opponent evading and parrying your attacks. . 】

(Note: Precision is an additional special effect of melee combat skills. It will be automatically unlocked after meeting the conditions.)

Renn first looked around on the Knight (Extraordinary) career panel, and then felt a little strange because he didn't find any new skill icons.

However, when he carefully read the instructions for Accurate Level 1 again, he suddenly realized it!

Because 'accuracy' is not a specific skill, but a special effect attached to combat skills, naturally no new skill icon will be generated on the career panel.

After Renn focused his attention on the icon representing the giant bear's swordsmanship - 'a bear holding a big sword', sure enough, there was an additional line of small words below:

Dire Bear Swordsmanship lv7 (3023/5000), with special effect ‘Accurate lv2’.

[Precision lv2 (passive) effect: You have a clearer understanding of your own combat skills and weapons in your hands, and can accurately control the power and landing position of each move, which makes it possible for the opponent to dodge and parry your attacks. , slightly reduced. 】

(Note: To unlock Accurate lv3 of the Giant Bear Swordsmanship, the following conditions must be met: 1. The Giant Bear Swordsmanship is lv9 or above; 2. Strength is 20 points, agility is 18 points, and Constitution is 20 or above.)

Ren read the above description carefully and felt enlightened.

Compared with the precise special effects at lv1 level, the text expressions are roughly the same as the precise special effects at lv2 level, mainly because "slightly" has been changed to "small extent".

In addition, Ren's level 7 giant bear swordsmanship comes with special effects, which is level 2 accuracy, not level 1 accuracy.

This point is indeed in line with the description in the description of ‘after meeting the conditions, it will be automatically unlocked! ’

Seemingly thinking of something, Ren immediately focused his attention on the icon with a pair of big hands holding a sledgehammer - Tokkar Hammer Technique.

Tokkal Hammer Technique lv5 (354/2000), with special effect ‘Accurate lv1’.

Next is a description of the effect of precision lv1 (passive).

(Note: To unlock precision lv2 of Tokkal Hammer, the following conditions must be met: 1. Tokkar Hammer lv6 or above; 2. Strength 20 points, agility 16 points, and constitution 18 or above.)

By comparing the two items, it is easy to understand this ‘accurate’ special effect.

'Accuracy' is not an independent skill, but a special effect derived after meeting certain conditions based on the melee combat skills that Ren currently masters.

Basque, who was on the side, looked at Ren who suddenly started to practice swordsmanship. He was confused at first, but then, his eyes suddenly bulged, with an inexplicable expression of horror on his face.

After Renn stopped, Basque dared to interrupt Renn and asked stammeringly: "Lenn, did you enter a state of enlightenment just now?"

Renn turned to look at Basque, smiled, and said, "Well, I gained a little bit. Basque, thank you for not interrupting my epiphany just now."

After getting in touch with them in the past few days, Ren found that the Basques are not bad. Although they talk a bit too much sometimes, at least they are not bad-hearted.

Unlike some young people who will suddenly explode with jealousy on the spot when they see their companions suddenly having an epiphany, and then they will find ways, secretly or pretending to be inadvertent, to interrupt your continued epiphany and block your progress.

Many times, this companion may be the one you usually get along with more happily.

To paraphrase a saying from the previous life, it is "I don't want my brothers to suffer, but I don't want my brothers to drive Land Rover." This is human nature.

Basque saw the affirmative answer given by Ren, with a surprised expression on his face, and said: "I have been here with Master Gunther for a year and a half, and you are the third person I have seen who has achieved enlightenment. But only after you came here." You are the only one who has an epiphany in a few days.”

"The three people before you, the fastest one among them, all experienced at least a month of training before they realized their enlightenment."

Ren nodded, indicating that he understood.

Of course he would not think that he was the only one who would have an epiphany. The empire was so huge and the base was so large that even if the proportion of geniuses was low, they would still spring up like mushrooms after a rain.

After thinking about it, Ren couldn't wait to go into the sea again and try out this precise power.

However, the last batch of offshore crazy fish attracted by round tubeworms have long since dispersed.

So, Ren turned to Basque and said, "Basque, please throw another tubeworm into the sea. I want to try the effect of the epiphany again."

"Oh, okay, okay!" When Basque heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

Because he felt that Ren's reaction was too calm.

You know, those who have an epiphany will have an expression of ecstasy afterwards.

Unlike Ren, he was as calm as if this kind of epiphany was a common occurrence.

However, he quickly followed Ren's request, picked up a twisting round tubeworm that looked like a small snake, and threw it into the sea four or five meters away.

Wherever Ren could see, the scene he saw last time appeared again.

There were immediately a few ripples on the sea surface in the distance. With Ren's eyesight, he could naturally see that this time, there were six offshore crazy fish swimming towards this side quickly.

When Ren saw this, he didn't hesitate. He immediately held the big sword in both hands and slowly walked into the sea in the direction of the round tube worm.

As the distance between the offshore crazy fish and Renne rapidly shortens!

This time, Renn opened the game by hitting the middle part of the body of an offshore crazy fish with a sword. Immediately afterwards, the painful offshore crazy fish immediately started to fight back at Renn.

I saw the powerful tail fin of this offshore crazy fish swinging violently, and the entire fish body rushed towards Renn like a torpedo.

But this time, under the giant bear swordsmanship with the special effect 'Accurate Level 2', Renne was able to hit the offshore crazy fish that came at high speed with almost every move he made.

In just half a minute, Renn added four or five more holes to this offshore crazy fish.

Excessive blood loss caused the physical strength of the offshore crazy fish to begin to decline, and its swimming speed further decreased.

Seeing this, Ren used 'Break Limit'. After a few rounds, he struck the junction between the fish's head and body with his sword. With one furious slash, he decapitated the crazy fish in the offshore!

He did not turn on the 'triple state' during the whole process, nor did he use the 'power burst', which was almost a 'cheating' core skill.

The killing time of an offshore crazy fish has also increased from five minutes just now to about two minutes now.

The entire combat efficiency has been improved by more than one margin!

Renn couldn't help but praise in his heart!

Even if he can't learn anything else now, just relying on the 'accuracy' of this melee special effect is worth traveling all the way to do this.

After killing three offshore crazy fish in a row, the other crazy fish were devoured by round tube worms and dispersed.

But Ren, who was in the sea, began to realize it carefully.

He discovered that although his combat power was very good, it was based on his super physical fitness, but he had never had any deep reflection on the weapons in his hands and the combat skills he had practiced. .

To use an analogy.

Ren's previous control of his body was equivalent to controlling a tractor. Although the horsepower was great, there was no control accuracy at all.

But now, it's like he's driving a sports car with sophisticated construction. He can drive wherever he points on the steering wheel, with centimeter-level control.

Recalling the battle scene just now, Ren swung the big sword in his hand and slashed at the offshore mad fish, with an error of only three to five centimeters.

Basically, it can be said that the difference between the attack position in his mind and the attack position in his hands is very small on the offshore crazy fish.

You must know that this is in the case of high-resistance sea water and the opponent is moving at high speed.

but

If he wanted to become more precise, Renn turned his attention to the Bear Swordsmanship icon on the Knight (Extraordinary) panel.

"To unlock precision level 3, you need to meet the following conditions: 1. Giant Bear Swordsmanship level 9 or above," Ren muttered to himself.

No wonder!

In his previous life, he had heard that in order to practice the accuracy of fencing, he would hang a small ball on a rope, and then he would practice repeatedly, trying to hit the swinging ball.

This seemed to have the same effect as the 'seaweed cutting' process in his first training.

Although the methods are different, "cutting seaweed in the water" is much more difficult than "stabbing small balls", the purpose is actually the same.

It’s all a training for swordsmanship accuracy!

Looking at it now, this third training task - 'Kill ten offshore crazy fish within one hour', is a further improvement in accuracy requirements, which is to promote the training from precision level 1 to level 2.

This is because the offshore crazy fish moves in an accelerated curve, rather than the regular pendulum-like movement of seaweed or small balls.

Ren briefly estimated that if a formal knight could display the combat skill's special effect of 'Accuracy Level 2', he would be able to successfully kill an offshore crazy fish within five minutes.

This means that the other party can complete this training task three.

In fact, at this point, the difference between formal knights and senior knights is not too big.

Because the resistance in sea water is far greater than that in air, the strength gap between senior knights and formal knights is weakened.

Assume that on land, the combat power of a senior knight is 50% higher than that of a formal knight, but in sea water, the combat power that a senior knight can exert may only be 20% higher than that of a formal knight.

To put it simply, in the water, technique is more important than physical fitness.

This is like a muscular man who is into bodybuilding and a child going swimming, and who of the two can swim faster. In this process, the swimming skills are obviously more important. In contrast, the proportion of physical fitness is It's much smaller.

Of course, if the skills of the two are similar, then the veteran knights will naturally have stronger combat power than the regular knights, and there will be no chance of turning against Tiangang.

In addition, what Lane found interesting is that other offshore crazy fish will disperse on their own after eating round tubeworms.

This characteristic is more like that of solitary animals, such as leopards, rather than animals that hunt in groups like hyenas.

Otherwise, Renne will face the siege of many offshore crazy fish.

But there is also a disadvantage, that is, a round tube worm attracts five or six offshore crazy fish, but Ren can only kill three of them so far, which is a bit of a waste.

After thinking about it, Ren slowly walked ashore carrying three offshore crazy fish.

But immediately, he smelled the aroma of food and took a closer look.

I saw that Basque actually had a bonfire under the cliff, and the meat of the crazy fish in the offshore sea under the hard scales was skewered on a thin sword and grilled, and the scent came from it.

When Basque saw Renn's appearance, he waved enthusiastically and said: " Renn, try my craftsmanship! This grilled fish meat is authentic and delicious!"

"By the way, it can also quickly restore physical energy, and has an effect close to that of ferocious beast flesh."

Renn, who was still hesitating between eating and not eating, raised his eyebrows when he heard the last sentence and quickly regained his physical strength?

Then of course I have to give it a try.

"Bang bang!"

Ren swung his sword and struck, chopped, and sliced ​​with precision!

Soon, he picked out all the meat of the three offshore crazy fish he killed later, and said to Basque: "How can one fish be enough for two of us? These three fish are also roasted together."

"Awesome!" Basque couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised when he saw Ren's precise sword skills.

"By the way, Ren, just now I saw that the speed at which you killed the crazy fish in the offshore seas can actually complete the third training task, right? If so, then you, like Frode, will have to do the fourth task. Trained.”

"Oh? Basque, do you know what the fourth training task is?" Renne asked casually.

As for who Frode is, Renn doesn't care at all.

"Of course, the fourth item is to kill thirty offshore crazy fish in one hour!"

"Thirty?" Renn raised his eyebrows.

Of course he understood the difference between ten and thirty.

This is not a simple accumulation of quantity, but a qualitative difference!

If the requirement is to kill ten offshore crazy fish within one hour, then on average, it will take six minutes to kill one offshore crazy fish. In this case, you can kill them one by one.

It's nothing more than spending more time on tubeworms.

But if there are thirty items, the average is one every two minutes, which means that the previous tactic of killing each item one by one is definitely not feasible.

Because this requires killing all five or six offshore crazy fish attracted by a round tubeworm in a short period of time.

This probably means one-to-many, and the difficulty skyrockets.

"Ren, do you also find it difficult?" Basque said with a bitter smile.

"Anyway, I've been here for a year and a half, and I haven't seen anyone pass this fourth training task. Including Miss Claire, she is also stuck on this fourth training task."

"Oh? Is Claire stuck on the fourth item too?" Upon hearing this, Renn couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Well, if I remember correctly, Miss Claire killed twenty-seven in one hour, and she was almost able to complete this training task." Basque recalled it, with a look of nostalgia on his face, road.

Ren nodded.

In his memory, Claire was still the one who gave him the impression of becoming a knight.

At that time, in his heart, Claire was a being with unfathomable strength.

Unexpectedly, he has gradually equaled or even overtaken the opponent.

This feeling is quite strange.

Renn estimated that when Claire came to participate in Master Gunther's training, it should be one or two years ago. By then, she should have the strength of a formal knight.

So, even if she could use the sword skill's special effect 'Accurate Level 2', she would still be unable to kill thirty offshore crazy fish within an hour.

The reason is simple, insufficient lethality!

‘Accuracy’ improves accuracy, but it cannot increase the maximum limit of its own lethality.

This is like a boxer's maximum punching power of 500 pounds. The significance of accuracy to him is that he can release this maximum punching power at the enemy's weak points, but the maximum punching power of 500 pounds itself will not That turned into eight hundred pounds.

However, Renn is naturally confident that he can complete the subsequent task of killing thirty offshore crazy fish.

Because as long as he activates the core skill of 'Power Burst', he is fully capable of completing this training task by increasing the upper limit of his own attack power.

But the problem is that others don't have his 'cheating' skills.

How did others accomplish it?

Renn never forgot that the purpose of coming to Master Gunther for further training was to improve his strength, not to show off his strength.

He's not here to show off.

Thinking of this, Renn glanced at the system prompt:

[You have trained in underwater giant bear swordsmanship, and your relevant understanding has improved! 】

[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, experience value +16]

[You have undergone internal breathing training, and your relevant understanding has improved! 】

[Your skill Breathing is improved, experience value +2]

When he saw the improvement in experience of the inner breathing method, suddenly, a light flashed in Ren's mind.

He remembered what Master Gunther said before leaving - ‘This will be quite helpful for improving your inner breathing method. ’

The master will naturally not talk useless nonsense.

In addition, Ren himself is increasingly aware that as the internal breathing method reaches the lv3 level, the internal breathing method has an obvious beneficial effect on the giant bear breathing method.

Renn has reason to believe that under normal circumstances, the key to completing subsequent training tasks should be this internal breathing method.

After thinking about it, Renn did not choose to complete the third training task in one day - 'Kill ten offshore crazy fish in one hour'.

Instead, I plan to slow down a little, and plan to improve the internal breathing method as much as possible in the next few days.

So, for the next few days, Wren lived a life similar to that of an ascetic.

Except for harvesting a wave of tough seaweed for juice every morning, Renn spent the rest of his time comprehending the inner breathing method.

As for the battle with the offshore crazy fish, the improvement rate is maintained by one every day.

On the third day, Lane killed seven offshore fish in one hour.

On the fifth day, Renn's internal breathing method successfully reached level 4.

At the same time, he also successfully killed ten offshore crazy fish within one hour and completed the third training mission.

At this time, Ren could clearly feel that the inner breathing method at level 4 was having some strange impact on his own giant bear breathing method.

But it seems... still a little bit behind!

It's like smelting an iron ingot. At this time, the iron ingot is already red, but the temperature is not enough.

On the fifth day, Master Gunther looked at Renn, showed a satisfied smile, and said: "Very good! Then, Renn, you can carry out the fourth training mission, kill three people in one hour. Ten offshore crazy fish.”

"The deadline is also within one month."

"This is a secret medicine made from reef shark glue. It can be used in the same way as 'Tough Seaweed Juice'. It can further improve your internal breathing."

"When you feel the energy within you, try to channel it, into your sword!"

"."

Ren measured the time.

It took six days on the way here, and now eight days have passed. Considering that it will take six days to return, that means he still has ten days of training left.

It seems that completing this fourth training task within seven days at most is a time limit.

After all, he always wanted to stay for a few days to see the follow-up training content.

In the past few days, when Ren was killing the crazy fish in the offshore, the seven or eight young people who were also at this stage were shocked when they saw that Ren was increasing one fish almost a day. A breath of cool air.

"This speed of progress is really shocking!"

When Renne successfully completed the third training mission on the fifth day, even though several people around him had expected that Renne might be fast, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"How could this be so damn fast! Passed the third training mission in five days!" The young man named Arturo couldn't help but murmured.

Because he has already used it for twenty-one days and is still stuck at seven points an hour, unable to make any progress!

"Now, Renne has surpassed most of us and is at the same pace as Frode." The young man named Doug said solemnly.

"Yes! Now the only two people carrying out the fourth training mission are Frod and Renn."

"At the rate of his progress, it will only be a matter of time before he catches up with Frode."

"However, it will take at least half a month for him to catch up with Frode. After all, Frode has already reached 22 strokes in one hour." A young man pointed at the man who also killed offshore madness in the sea. The fishy man with a short hair said.

"Maybe it doesn't take so long!" Doug looked at Ren for a while, then turned to look at Frode who was fighting in the water, and said.

Sure enough, Renne's progress in the fourth training task was frighteningly fast!

The next day, the kill speed was directly increased to one hour and twelve!

On the third day, it reached fifteen!

The fourth day, Article 19!

On the fifth day, we came directly to Article 24! It has surpassed Frod's twenty-three points!

What kind of monster is this horse?

The speed of progress will actually become faster and faster!

The young people around were simply terrified to see it!

On the sixth day, Rennes’ best shot of the day was twenty-six kills!

Others may think that Renne will soon break through to thirty.

But only Ren knew that he had reached his limit!

Twenty-six strokes in one hour, he had already used all his strength except for the core skill of 'Power Explosion'!

Obviously, there is still a small difference between twenty-six and thirty.

Renn also knew the problem, which was that it took too long to kill a single offshore mad fish.

This is closely related to the lack of attack power.

Tomorrow is the last day set by Renne himself.

If he still couldn't complete it, he planned to activate the 'power burst' to increase the lethality to complete the training mission of killing thirty offshore crazy fish.

If possible, Renn would of course be willing to follow Master Gunther's training schedule and proceed step by step.

Because after the previous few training missions, Renn has understood that Master Gunther's training is closely linked to each other.

These trainings are very effective. They can not only develop the human body's potential, but also deepen one's own combat skills. These two items are the foundation and foundation of a person's combat effectiveness.

And Renne's core skill of 'Power Burst' is more like an amplifier of combat power.

After laying a solid foundation, and then through amplification, the total combat power can be further improved!

This truth is very simple, so Renne has been trying to complete training tasks according to normal training methods.

But his time is limited, so this is a last resort.

The morning of the seventh day.

The young people around looked at this peer who was likely to set a new record with different expressions.

Renn glanced at the inner breathing method on the Knight (Extraordinary) panel. He found that after his own hard work and the secret medicine provided by Master Gunther, the inner breathing method had reached level 4 (898/1000).

Therefore, he planned not to rush to use 'Power Explosion', but to try raising the inner breathing method to level 5.

Half a day later.

As Ren sheathed his sword, the system prompt came:

[Your skill Breathing is improved, experience value +2]

[Congratulations, your skill Internal Breathing has been upgraded to lv5]

At this moment, Ren suddenly felt that the skin all over his body began to heat up, and at the same time, there was an extremely strange feeling of itching and numbness.

Suddenly, another system prompt sounded:

【Ding! detected】
