The sky was just starting to brighten.
Søren had already woken up. He washed up and went to the training ground outside his room to stretch his muscles. Søren's mastery of sword forms had once again entered a period of accumulation. He was now practicing the White Raven Tactics. It was much harder to master compared to sword forms. He had been practicing it for a few months, but he still hadn't made much progress. Under normal circumstances, it would take three to five years to master a portion of these high-level combat skills.
Sword forms belonged to a single attack, while the White Raven Tactics belonged to a set of attacks.
It was like the difference between a powerful sword form and a set of powerful sword forms. There were also techniques for explosive power, techniques for accumulating power, and techniques for combining attacks. These things required specialized training and mastering the corresponding skills. For example, Søren couldn't immediately use Sword Form Decapitation after using Heavy Slash. Only Sword Saints could master these techniques. There were many combat skills that only they could use.
Søren exercised for a while, and the sky gradually brightened.
He took out a three-shot crossbow and quickly loaded it with ammunition. He then fired at a target a hundred meters away. The distance wasn't too far, but it wasn't too close either. Søren didn't even aim. He just raised his hand and fired at the target. With his current strength and attributes, he didn't need to aim. His accuracy was quite high. All Attribute abilities extended to various fields, so Attribute abilities were also the most difficult to improve.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
All three arrows hit the target, and all of them hit the bullseye.
However, there was no trace of pride on Soran's face because this was just the simplest shooting skill. This kind of skill was nothing in the eyes of many people. He calmly continued to load the crossbow and ran from left to right. He moved at an astonishing speed, and at the same time, he fired at the target in the distance.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
All three arrows hit the target, but this time, only one of them hit the bullseye.
Søren looked at the target in front of him and couldn't help but frown slightly. He hadn't mastered any skills in long-range shooting. It wasn't easy to hit the target while moving at high speed. He had to rely on his strong dexterity attributes (balance, coordination, hit rate, etc.). However, this was really nothing. A true expert could directly shoot the heart of the target while moving at high speed while the enemy was also moving at high speed. Only then could he be considered a true godly archer. If it was a sharpshooter according to the standards of ordinary people, then most of the elves who were good at crossbows could do it.
The conditions were still not enough. Without modern training equipment, high-speed shooting had to be mastered in actual combat.
Søren played with the three-shot crossbow in his hand. Then he loaded it and fired.................
....
... There was a burst of applause in the distance, and then the drow that Søren had let go came over. His name was Dark Blade Andri. He was a master of combat among the drow and the leader of the drow warriors. There were two people behind the drow warrior. He looked at Søren in front of him and bowed slightly. He then praised, "Your skills are amazing!"
It was a little fake.
Søren knew his shooting skills, but his face didn't change at all. He just smiled and said, "It's just a casual practice. Drows are the masters of shooting!"
Dark Blade Andri smiled and then said, "Do you like to use crossbows?"
"Yes." Søren frowned slightly. He didn't quite understand why the other party said this.
The leader of the drow warriors in front of him glanced at the target in the distance, then lowered his head slightly and said, "In my opinion, with your strength, you shouldn't use such a heavy and slow crossbow at all. Only some people who are not talented enough are suitable to use a crossbow because it takes too long to load, and its power is not stronger than a bow. From my personal point of view, your strength, agility, and physical fitness are far superior to others. From the perspective of an archer, you are a genius in using a bow! … "
Genius?
Søren couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression. In terms of attributes, he did have quite enough attributes to use a bow. It was just that he had always used a crossbow before, and it had become a habit, so he almost never thought about switching to a bow. Until today, when the leader of the drow warriors in front of him mentioned it, Søren realized that with his current attributes, using a bow might be better than using a crossbow.
"Come."
Dark Blade Andri turned around and looked behind him, then ordered, "Bring me my Elven War Bow."
One of his subordinates quickly left. After a while, he came back with a dark golden Elven War Bow. The surface of the bow was very smooth, and there were exquisite carvings on it. It looked like it was painted with some kind of dye, but Søren wasn't too sure what it was. This Elven War Bow was not an ordinary item at first glance. In fact, all Elven War Bows were not ordinary items. They were at least + 1 Rare-grade weapons. This was because the bows made by the elves were more sophisticated than those made by humans. The craftsmanship and materials used could not be compared.
— — "Elven War Bow (+ 2) [Rare-grade item]!"
Dark Blade Andri handed the Elven War Bow in his hand to Søren and said slowly, "Why don't you try this War Bow? Maybe you will find that a bow is more effective than a crossbow! "
Søren reached out and took the Elven War Bow.
In the past, his way of fighting was to fill the crossbow with ammunition in advance, and then throw it away when the battle was over. In fact, Søren rarely filled the crossbow with ammunition continuously in battle. He only used it as a one-time consumable. However, today, the words of the Drows in front of him had attracted his attention. He also wanted to test the lethality of the Elven War Bow.
The follower next to him quickly brought over a quiver full of arrows.
Søren stood about 120 meters away from the target, then reached out and picked up an arrow. He smoothly nocked the arrow on the bow and shot it at the target. He didn't use the bow much, but it was not that he was completely unfamiliar with it. It was just that it was not as convenient to shoot as a crossbow. After all, a crossbow could be fired after it was loaded, but there was a process of nocking the arrow on the bow. However, the continuity of shooting with a bow was undoubtedly much better than with a crossbow.
"Swoosh!"
A sharp arrow was released, and Søren easily hit the bull's eye.
His Strength wasn't high, but his Dexterity was 24 points. This meant that Søren's balance and coordination were very good. He was very outstanding in anything related to skill.
This arrow didn't mean anything.
Søren was just trying out his skills. When he got a feel for it, he raised his hand and took the quiver, then he continuously shot at the target in front of him.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Five arrows were shot out in succession. Søren's shooting speed was quite fast. Although his Strength wasn't very high, his Endurance was quite good. It took him about a second to aim and shoot. In other words, he shot continuously for five seconds at the target at a rate of one arrow per second. In the next moment, five arrows pierced through the air and hit the bullseye in the distance. He didn't seem to be unaccustomed to using a bow. Perhaps it was because of the Omnipotent Hands, his accuracy was very high when he aimed and shot.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Søren didn't stop at all. He had a total of thirty arrows in his quiver. He shot ten arrows at each target, which took him about thirty-six seconds. During this period of time, he didn't need to rest, and he didn't have any stamina that couldn't keep up with the consumption. When he finished shooting all the arrows in his quiver, he felt a slight numbness in his arm.
The targets in the distance were full of arrows. Søren basically didn't miss the target, but only twenty-seven arrows hit the bull's eye. Three of them didn't hit the bull's eye.
From the angle of aiming and shooting, this result should be considered pretty good!
The drow next to him was slightly surprised.
On the other hand, Søren looked at the targets in the distance that were full of arrows and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He seemed to have overlooked something in the past. Perhaps the crossbow wasn't suitable for him.
