"Have you rested enough?" Garon said faintly.
Phew …
Yuria exhaled deeply and stopped moving. His eyes shone with a fighting spirit that had never been seen before.
"Done."
"Come on." Garon's face showed that he was serious.
For the first time.
For the first time, he held the sword hilt with his left hand.
Only then did everyone realize that he had only used one hand since the beginning. Just his right hand alone was enough to make Yuria breathless.
An invisible pressure was emitted from Garon's body, making Yuria feel suffocated.
"So strong …!"
He mustered all the strength in his body again. Whether it was the borrowed strength from Savior or the newly comprehended strength of Hydra, they all turned into instinct.
Poof!
He took a step forward and charged toward Garon again.
In an instant, the two wooden swords collided.
Clang!!!
*****
The summer breeze was warm, and the leaves rustled in the wind, causing the sunlight to sway and tremble.
Golden fragments were everywhere. It was as if the entire forest had turned into a golden ocean.
In the pit, Yuria was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out. He breathed in the fresh air and did not care about the sweat on his body. He was so tired that he did not care.
Endless exhaustion threatened to drown him at any moment.
Yurijie ran down hurriedly with a basin of water and a water bottle. She squatted beside her brother and used a towel to wipe off the sweat and dust on Yuria's body.
Pa …
Footsteps came from nearby and stopped beside Yuria.
It was Garon.
He looked at Yuria on the ground with a complicated gaze. The wooden sword in his hand had been broken into two. Only half of it was left in his hand.
"Have I … passed … the test?" Yuria asked while gasping for breath.
Garon was silent for a moment. He suddenly closed his eyes as if he was thinking.
"You're still far from it."
He said in a low voice.
"Uh …"
Yuria smiled bitterly in disappointment.
"But this time, you passed …" Garon suddenly turned and walked away. The remaining half of the wooden sword was on his shoulder. He did not notice the excited and joyful smiles on the faces of the Yuria siblings behind him.
Nine-Tailed Fox jumped into the pit lightly and walked towards Garon.
"What a tsundere. He's so concerned about his face."
When the two of them passed by each other, Nine-Tailed Fox whispered with a smile.
"Whatever you say." Garon was not in a good mood. "It's your time now."
"Of course." Nine-Tailed Fox nodded and floated toward Yuria.
"Don't you know that it will be difficult for me to guide you?" She walked up to the siblings and looked at their puzzled expressions.
"Alright, your Head Minister has entrusted you to me. I'll guide you in the long-range attack training." Nine-Tailed Fox revealed a fox-like smile.
*****
One day later …
After resting for a whole day, the siblings were brought to an empty basement by Nine-Tailed Fox.
The four walls of the basement were made of black metal, and there were small potholes all over the walls. It was unknown what they had been used for in the past.
There was only one entrance around. The door used to open and close the door was a three-meter-thick heavy metal wall that rose and fell vertically.
The siblings wore bulletproof vests and stood in the middle of the basement. Each of them held a high-powered pistol in their hands and had a dull expression. It was obvious that they did not expect Nine-Tailed Fox, a little girl who looked like a student, to be able to get her hands on such a terrifying killing weapon.
Garen and Nine-Tailed Fox's image of a mysterious student that was originally branded on them was instantly shattered by these two guns.
Nine-Tailed Fox stood opposite them with her back against the wall. She wore a black skin-tight suit that was almost naked. Even the subtle outline of her breasts and lower body could be vaguely seen. It was the kind of sexy skin-tight suit that would make a primary school student blush.
Garen and Kong Xinxue, on the other hand, stood at the side and watched.
"Next." Nine-Tailed Fox spoke softly. "I'll train you on how to deal with intensive range attacks. According to your description of the opponent, the other party clearly belongs to this type."
"Hmm." Yuria collected his thoughts and nodded seriously. "Yes, it's a large-scale steel needle magnetic traction attack. First, set up a large number of steel needles, and then use the steel needles to attack the opponent at any time."
"Then that's easy." Nine-Tailed Fox smiled slightly. "What you need is to deal with how to avoid such a large number of rapid range attacks, and how to find a way out from the rain."
"So what should I do?" Yuria asked seriously.
"What should I do?" Nine-Tailed Fox raised the gun in her hand and smiled strangely.
Seeing the pistol in her hand, the siblings suddenly thought of a bad possibility.
"Could it be …" Both of their expressions changed slightly.
Bang!!
The gun went off.
"Sure enough!!!!" Both of them were scared out of their wits. No wonder they were asked to wear bulletproof vests and shoot with high-powered pistols in the secret room. The walls were all made of highly reflective metal walls. This was simply murder!!
"Hehe, you guessed right!" Nine-Tailed Fox revealed her small canine teeth and smiled. "Unfortunately, there's no prize."
Clang clang … Clang!
The ricochet bullets kept bouncing in the secret room. The speed and trajectory could not be seen clearly at all. Only the continuous sound of bouncing bullets could be heard, as well as the golden sparks that kept sputtering on the walls and the floor.
Yuria and his sister squatted down with their hands on their heads. They lay directly on the ground and did not dare to move at all. Their faces were distorted with fear.
Clang!
A ricochet bullet hit the ground less than half a meter away from them.
Ah!!!!
Both of them screamed in fear. Their faces were pale and they hugged each other tightly.
Garon stood aside and looked at the two of them speechlessly.
"At first, I was a little jealous of that kid. I spent a long time to understand the realm, but this guy used some random ability to catch up to me. Now that I look at it again …" He shook his head and sighed helplessly.
Kong Xinxue's face was also a little pale. Her body stood behind Garon, trying to let him block her. The ricochet bullet did not care if you were the target or not. Whoever it hit would be unlucky.
"You perverts, you don't even know to remind us before you start fighting."
"Are you scared?" Garon looked at her amusedly.
"No way!"
Kong Xinxue said stubbornly. Suddenly, she saw Garon's expression change as he looked at the wall behind her.
"Watch out!"
He roared.
Ah!!!
Kong Xinxue jumped into Garon's arms and screamed.
"Hahaha!!" Then came Garon's triumphant laughter. She immediately understood that she had been fooled.
"You!!" She quickly broke free and wanted to yell.
Psst!!
Suddenly, a silver light appeared between the two of them.
Garon put away his long saber as if nothing had happened and slowly put it back into its scabbard.
A black bullet that had been cut into two slowly fell between the two of them. It made a tinkling sound.
Kong Xinxue was scared out of her wits. In that instant of chill and the moment she saw the silver light flash, she almost thought that Garon was really going to attack her. That sense of oppression that could not be ignored was almost unforgettable.
"Good saber technique!" Nine-Tailed Fox's clapping voice came from not far away. "But our Ah Xue seems to be scared out of her wits," she teased.
"You're the one who's scared out of her wits!!" In fact, Kong Xinxue had not experienced chaotic and dangerous combat worlds in the past few worlds. She had walked through them peacefully. Although she knew the Nine-Tailed Fox before and knew that they were different from her, she did not care too much. However, it was different this time. She only felt fear when she personally experienced this blade.
"Head Minister … Are you sure you're a human!?"
Yuria got up and said incredulously.
Yurijie nodded vigorously at the side. If she had not seen it with her own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that a human could cut down a bullet with a cold weapon. Even if the bullet bounced a few times and its speed and power were greatly reduced, it was still not something that ordinary people could capture.
Garon smiled.
"Feel it carefully. In fact, after the bullet bounces once, it's not as difficult to see as it was at the beginning."
"Yes." Nine-Tailed Fox clapped. "Now, both of you shoot at me with your guns. Don't worry, the bullets here are all special bullets that I've changed. Even if they hit someone, it won't kill immediately. At most, it'll cause a big wound." As she spoke, she gestured a fist-sized circle with her hand.
"You call this a special bullet?!! What's the difference between this and an explosive bullet!? "Yuria's hair stood on end. "No … This is obviously beyond the scope of a bullet, right? This is called a cannonball … "
"I'm sure it's not a cannonball." Nine-Tailed Fox seemed to be able to guess what he wanted to say. "So, in order to not die, in order to protect your sister, young man, use your strongest instinct!" She gave a thumbs up. "Come on!"
"Come on, my ass!" Yuria wanted to roar out loud, but it was clear that Nine-Tailed Fox would not give him the chance. She raised her hand and fired a shot into the sky.
Bang!
The bullets bounced again.
Bang bang bang bang bang!!
This time, it was not just one bullet. Nine-Tailed Fox seemed to know that the two of them were unwilling to shoot. She fired six shots in a row, emptied all the bullets in the chamber, and threw the pistol away.
Chi chi chi chi!
Four consecutive bouncing bullets bounced back at the same time and shot toward her.
A white ribbon suddenly appeared in her hand. Nine-Tailed Fox turned around lightly and easily avoided the bouncing bullets. Like an acrobatic dance on the tip of a knife, the white ribbon fluttered gently as if she was dancing a beautiful dance.
Both Yuria and Nine-Tailed Fox were stunned.
Garon stared at Nine-Tailed Fox's movements from the side.
"Amazing … Her instantaneous speed is obviously beyond the scope of human beings …"
"I've heard her mention that although she can't use her Demonic Arts, the Great Demon's physique still left some aspects that are far beyond ordinary people. For example, this speed is like that." Kong Xinxue whispered. After Garon's previous slash, her emotions had stabilized. Although she was still nervous, she was not as scared as she was at the beginning.
"Is that so?" Garon was thoughtful.
