Gu Fei wasn't in a hurry to attack. Instead, he asked Sword Ghost, "You've seen me fight monsters many times. Have you noticed the biggest difference between me and you guys?"
Sword Ghost thought for a moment, "You've dodged most of the monsters' attacks."
Gu Fei nodded, "That's right. I hope that's the first thing you should pay attention to. Of course, I knew that most of the time, you didn't dodge because you calculated that the damage of that attack wouldn't affect you much. Instead, you fought with your opponent for the rest of the attack, which was more efficient and advantageous. By dodging, not only did you avoid the damage, you also avoided a great opportunity to counterattack your opponent. However, from the perspective of real combat, this was a method that would cause both sides to suffer. It was a tactic that would only be used when there was no other choice. However, since you guys were playing a game, there was replenishment and recovery, so you were very used to this kind of fighting style. If you really want to improve yourself, you must first say no to this kind of fighting style. Every time you fight, no matter if it's against a person or a monster, you must do your best to avoid taking damage. Of course, this isn't easy, but the important thing is to pay attention to it and do your best to do this. Do you understand what I mean? "
"Understood." Sword Ghost nodded.
"Good. Keep this in mind and fight a monster!" Gu Fei said.
Sword Ghost nodded and went up to kill the monster. In his mind, he kept chanting "dodge dodge dodge". With this focus, he completely forgot to attack. He just stared at the monster's attacks, hoping to dodge every attack. Even so, Sword Ghost wasn't able to dodge all of the Level 50 monster's attacks. When he was half dead, he suddenly realized that he had been focused on dodging and hadn't attacked at all. Glancing at Gu Fei, he couldn't tell whether his expression was happy or worried. Sword Ghost continued to run around, looking for opportunities to stab. However, there were many times when he had the urge to attack instead of dodging when the monster slapped him. As expected of someone with a strong willpower, the Sword Ghost managed to restrain this habit that he had developed over the years. In the end, he didn't manage to attack, but he didn't manage to dodge the slap either.
With this new rule, the Sword Ghost felt his hands and feet bound. The opportunities he found to attack after circling around were disproportionate to the damage he received from the monsterlings' attacks. With such a slow depletion, it was clear that the Sword Ghost could not outlast these Level 50 monsterlings, which he could deal with under normal circumstances.
The result was predictable, but the Sword Ghost didn't change his original intention. He clenched his teeth and persisted, strictly following Gu Gufei's instructions. Gu Fei, who had been watching silently all this while, suddenly took action. In just a few moves, he killed the small monster that had also lost most of its HP to the Sword Ghost.
The Sword Ghoul let out a long sigh of relief. It slowly ate the bread to recover its health while waiting for Gu Fei to speak.
Gu Fei was actually very pleased. He patted the Sword Phantom and said, "That's great! I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to control your body even if you wanted to change your mindset after so many years. I didn't expect you to be able to restrain yourself so cleanly. You're too strong!!"
"I don't think it's a big deal …" the Sword Ghost said disapprovingly.
Gu Fei smiled. Those who could do it, of course, wouldn't think that what they were doing was difficult. Only those who couldn't do it would understand the difficulty.
"But if I keep fighting like this, I won't be able to defeat these small monsters," the Sword Ghost said.
Gu Fei nodded and said, "It'll definitely be like this in the beginning. Do you know why? It's because even though your original playstyle isn't very desirable, it's still a balanced playstyle. But now that I've asked you to increase your dodging, you've become too focused, and you've lost balance in both offense and defense. As a result, the small monsters that could have been easily dealt with have become harder to deal with. What you need to do next is to fight with this mindset in mind. Once again, you need to balance your offense and defense. There are many things that you need to pay attention to. First of all, the hardest thing for you to do right now is to attack while dodging.
"Actually, think about it. When I'm fighting monsters or PvP, I'll definitely dodge my opponent's attacks. But have I ever been like you? Because I'm dodging, I can't find an opportunity to attack?
"Dodging isn't just dodging for the sake of dodging. Sometimes, it'll be the foundation for the next attack. Sometimes, it'll even be a part of the attack. You're still too early to enter this stage. What you need to pay attention to now is to find a way to attack while dodging. Even if you dodge, you can't find an opportunity to attack. Alright, take a look at what I'm doing. "Gu Fei said as he pulled out his dagger and lured a small monster over to attack.
Dodging, attacking, dodging, attacking … Gu Fei seemed to be doing these things, but the Sword Ghost didn't have Gu Fei's skill. Even if he saw it, he couldn't do it in a short amount of time! After watching for a while, the Sword Ghost suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. The Coward's Savior had unknowingly moved to the Sword Ghost's side and said, "Can you see it? In the process of fighting monsters, there are many situations that are exactly the same as what you did before. The difference is that in those situations, you simply dodged, but in the process of dodging, he found an opportunity to attack. I think this is probably what he wants you to notice. "
"Thank you!" After listening to the Coward's reminder, the Sword Ghost really understood a lot, especially in the process of fighting with the small monsters. At this time, when he replayed the process of Gu Fei fighting with the small monsters, he clearly saw how Gu Fei dodged and counterattacked. The Sword Ghost couldn't wait to try again.
After the small monsters were killed by Gu Fei, the Sword Ghost jumped out eagerly. "Let me try again."
"You understand a little?" Gu Fei smiled.
"Yes!" Sword Ghost nodded. 'Lure the monster, kill it …' But when he started, it was completely different from just watching. Although he had already considered several of Gu Fei's previous counterattacks, when he was fighting the monster, the thing that Sword Ghost thought the most was, 'Aiya, I should have done this and that with that attack just now …'
In the end, it was Gu Fei who dealt with the small monsters. This time, the Sword Ghost was very aggrieved. He felt that many opportunities were floating in front of him, but he couldn't grasp a single one.
However, when he looked at Gu Fei, he was very happy. "Very good, very good. You really improve very quickly when you understand this principle. Don't worry, I know that it's normal for you to be unable to use your strength. Although you already have this kind of thought and this kind of awareness, sometimes it appears a little slow, and your body can't quite keep up with this kind of awareness. You don't have to rush, take your time. This kind of improvement that I told you about is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight. If you can reach my level with just a few words of advice, then our skills are too worthless. This is a gradual process of improvement. You may not even be aware of the improvement, but when one day you reach a certain level and suddenly look back, you will definitely find that you have made amazing progress. "
"Yes!" The Sword Ghost nodded.
"Okay, this time, the Coward, you go fight. Take off all your equipment and fight slowly. Do you know how to use a dagger?" Gu Fei asked.
"Ah … no …" The Coward's Savior was just an amateur after all. It was good enough that he was familiar with a few moves. It was impossible for a non-professional to be proficient in all kinds of martial arts.
"Then use your fists. The principle is the same anyway," Gu Fei said.
"Okay!" The Coward's Savior accepted the order and began to fight the monsters. At this time, Gu Fei began to explain the Coward's moves in detail to the Sword Ghost. The Sword Ghost listened attentively. At this time, he had long forgotten about the efficiency leveling method. The efficiency leveling method was just a way to level up, and the purpose of leveling up was just to become stronger and defeat others. Fighting monsters was never a player's ultimate goal. If he could learn actual combat skills from Gu Fei, he could still achieve this goal.
While Gu Fei began his one-on-one special training with the Sword Ghost, there were also people busy in other places. The Hundred Generations Strategist treated the students of Extreme Frost as if they were students from his bodyguard school. From time to time, there would be shouts of "Hey Ha" in the dense forest of Shady City, which made people's hearts jump.
The others found their own places to level up. In the end, all of them went to Moonlit Night City's Silent Night Valley. Azureblade and Flaming Cloak were partners who came here to level up. Brother You and Wushang couldn't find partners, so they set their sights on the Ten Guild Alliance. Cloud Twilight would, of course, give them the convenience of choosing the corresponding classes for them to work with. However, Wushang, that shameless guy, went too far and asked Cloud Twilight if he could find a beautiful girl to partner with him.
Cloud Twilight didn't dare to agree to this request. There were already very few girls in his guild, and if he were to share the meat with the wolves outside, the wolves would definitely revolt. In the end, Cloud Twilight could only laugh and tell Wushang that all the girls in his guild were taken, and he couldn't find any leftover girls. Only then did he send Wushang away.
At the same time, in the studio, Five Nights was quickly coordinating the work. Since this project involved most of the leveling areas in almost all the main cities in the game, it was impossible to rely on Five Nights' manpower from the six cities alone. No matter which main city it was, of course, the local population would be the most familiar with the surrounding leveling areas. Therefore, after Five Nights reported the situation of the negotiation to the higher-ups, Inch Studio set up a special market research team. Five Nights personally led the team, and the management of the main cities cooperated fully. They came up with an accurate plan in the shortest time possible.
Three days had passed since Five Nights finished the work, and he officially notified Gu Fei and Hundred Generations Strategist.
Gu Fei and the others had originally planned to let Kennan Yoshi handle this matter. However, Kennan Yoshi thought about it and felt that he needed professionals like Gu Fei or Hundred Eras Strategist to follow him. After all, the two of them had the most say in leveling efficiency. Sometimes, they might need to provide some professional knowledge.
As for the candidates, although it was reasonable to let Hundred Generations Strategist go, everyone agreed that it was best to let Gu Fei, who was smarter, go.
