Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 16 Only Teach a Little

Time always flies by.

In the blink of an eye, it was several months.

Going out hunting with Lancelot was the happiest and freest time for Gong Hao. Although Lancelot kept saying that he would not teach him anything, the fact was that even the oath was violated, not to mention such casual words.

Of course, Lancelot will not teach Gong Hao any more formally, but this does not prevent the blond boy from using his own special method to learn what he wants to learn.

For example, sometimes Gong Hao would show off his little progress in front of Lancelot, and he would shout to Lancelot: "Oh, my lord, look, I can chop this little tree off."

Then he would see Lancelot's disdainful eyes, and then tell him in a contemptuous tone that it is really not something to be proud of to break a small tree. And he should not only use the strength of the arm when exerting force, but should learn to use the strength of the body to aggravate the strength of the hand. The operation of fighting energy should not be limited to a certain part, but should be distributed throughout the body according to the change of applied force, and different distribution ratios will have different effects.

As a result, Hugh Iglesel, who has always been smart, would lose no time in being stupid, as if he couldn't understand what Lancelot said. Lancelot had to explain in detail and even do some demonstrations to understand. He began to understand that the regulation of power is also a kind of skill. How to coordinate the strength of the whole body and limbs, how to distribute the strength, and how to change the strength.

After the explanation, Lancelot would regret it again, as if he had said too much.

But I've already said it, so I can't let this kid forget it, right? kill him? Surely not. With this little guy by my side, I really saved myself a lot of energy. Not to mention that he cooks for himself every day, even if he goes hunting, he can still serve him comfortably. He would always wipe Lancelot's blood-stained armor immediately after Lancelot's battle, lay out a gorgeous carpet for him, prevent him from sitting on the grass when he was resting, or pick some delicious fruit for him.

Many fruits in the jungle are inedible, but there are also delicious and sweet rare fruits. Lancelot didn't know the difference, and would not use it easily, but Gong Hao, who had read all the books in the library, knew it all.

His observation of the surrounding environment is also very delicate. Lancelot sometimes loses his way in the foggy jungle, but the little guy can always find his way.

Lancelot felt that since he had this little guy to go hunting with him, his work became much easier.

This made him turn a blind eye to Gong Hao's battle qi study.

Of course, in order to get what he wants to know from Lancelot, there is not only one way to make a fool of himself.

Sometimes they will encounter some troubles in the process of hunting.

Once Lancelot was catching a sixth-level monster, and Gong Hao watched and studied this guy's movements carefully. Unexpectedly, a blood ape appeared beside him. This is a second-level magical beast with average combat power, but great strength.

Probably because he knew something about these two people who had been in and out of the jungle for a long time, the blood ape knew how powerful the guy wielding the long sword was, so he wanted to attack Gong Hao.

As soon as it appeared, it roared and rushed towards Gong Hao. Gong Hao could have chosen to use his thrusting ability to escape the attack immediately, but when his mind was turning, he just gave up dodging and was slapped away by the blood ape.

With this slap, if Lancelot hadn't come to rescue him in time, Gong Hao would never have been able to stand up alive again.

Afterwards, Lancelot thought that this kid was too weak, so weak that he couldn't even avoid the sneak attack of a second-level monster.

So he decided to teach this kid some more things. Anyway, with his current skill, it would be impossible to escape from Purgatory Island even if he improved ten times. Besides, unless he discovered the secrets of the island, there was no need to escape.

"I think I have to tell you something about what a warrior should pay attention to when fighting. There has always been a misunderstanding in people's thinking, that is, a magician is a symbol of wisdom, while a warrior can only use brute force. In fact, this is a big mistake. In fact, to be an excellent warrior, you must have two qualities: calmness and wisdom. You must know that the growth and use of fighting spirit is only a foundation of a warrior's ability, and fighting skills are the key to exerting this foundation. It is the crystallization of wisdom. Compared with those gorgeous and grand magic, warriors are the ones who really use their brains to fight. Otherwise, they only know how to rush forward when facing a powerful enemy, which is tantamount to courting death."

"First, to be a good samurai, you must know yourself. You must know what you can and cannot do. When a threat comes, a solution that you are proficient in using is far more meaningful than one that is powerful but you are not yet proficient in. There is no room for jerky techniques in combat, and it will kill you."

"Secondly, you need to know your opponent. You must know what your opponent is, and then you can make a targeted choice. In the jungle, we are facing monsters. And monsters are actually the best to deal with. We must know that the strength of human beings does not lie in our own strength, but in our ability to sum up experience and use various means to make up for our shortcomings and make us progress. Acting on instinct, no matter how powerful they are, they are acting on instinct, they don’t use their brains to fight, and they have fixed habits. Even if they understand this, they can’t change it. Their wisdom is not enough to allow them to use various techniques in battle.”

"For example, this blood ape, when it attacks the enemy, it always roars habitually. This is its habit, and it is also the attack habit of most ape monsters and tiger and leopard monsters. If it roars at you, it means that it will attack you. If it bends down and squats on the ground, it means it will jump into the air. If its shoulders shrink back, it means it will punch hard. Even if the blood ape knows these habits of its own, it is impossible to change them. corresponding solutions.”

"Tell me Greer, what did the monkey do when it attacked you just now?"

Gong Hao replied immediately: "It squatted down, and then retracted its shoulders."

"Yes, that means it is going to jump over and hit you, so what should you do?"

"I should have dodged to the side when it jumped so it couldn't hit me."

"But you didn't."

"I'm terrified my lord."

"Calmness is the most important factor for survival in battle. High-intensity training can only make you proficient in skills, but calmness in battle can prevent you from making mistakes. If you can't learn to be calm, you will only die when danger comes."

"Yes, my lord." Gong Hao smiled happily, being able to immediately give up resistance when the blood ape attacked in exchange for Lancelot's teachings, this is not only something that can be done calmly.

"Then let me tell you the third point. After you know your abilities and master the opponent's habits, you have to do one more thing, which is to counterattack. A samurai will never forget how to counterattack. Even in the most difficult situation, don't forget to counterattack. Because without counterattack, you will always be suppressed by your opponent."

"I see, my lord."

"Very well, remember that we are human beings. The biggest characteristic of human beings is that no matter how powerful creatures they encounter, they can always find a way to restrain them. This is an important reason why we are the king of all spirits. The enemy of human beings... will always be human beings."

The enemy of human beings is always only human beings. Gong Hao savored the words Lancelot gave him, and could see that this sky warrior also had a bitter past. Maybe that's why he stayed on Purgatory Island for twenty years.

"Okay, now let me tell you what skills you must master in combat. There are many things that may not look gorgeous, but they are very important. For example, a small sideways movement, there is a lot of knowledge in it. Remember, when your opponent swings his right fist at you, you must move to his right side, that is, to the outer edge of his arm, because that is his dead angle for attacking. Some anti-joint creatures. If he wants to keep attacking you, he has to shift his body first and keep facing you, but in this way his speed will slow down and he will lose an attack advantage. At this time, if you can make a fierce counterattack, you are already in victory. And your best attack method is to use sideways dodging while hitting his right hand joint hard. Then you will find that facing a straight arm, if you strike it from its outer edge joint, you only need a small amount of force to break it... "

"In the face of some magical beasts that like to jump, dodging to the sides is far worse than actively bullying the body and attacking from its lower part and rear, but this is very dangerous. You must be able to clearly grasp its jumping distance, and act quickly when it is in the air. Remember, hesitation is the most avoided in battle. Instinctive reactions are far more valuable than thinking clearly before punching, and this requires a lot of rich practical experience..."

"When you encounter a huge and powerful opponent, simple dodge is not the answer. Guerrilla tactics are just talking, because your opponent can use stones on the ground to attack you from a long distance. The best way is to immediately find an obstacle to hide. Huge people usually can't turn very quickly, take advantage of the opponent's slow turn, quickly launch an assault, go around behind him and aim at the joints, but don't try to kick his knee. Because if you want to deal a fatal blow to his knee, you must face him and then If you kick him head-on, you may be injured by your opponent at the same time. But if you kick his knee from behind, your opponent can reduce the damage by bending his legs, and the lethality will be very small. This is what I said before. Attacking from outside the joints. So if you successfully get around his back, the spine is your best attack area. You must target the vital point and hit it with one blow..."

Lancelot began to chatter.

Gong Hao felt like he was squeezing toothpaste.

He could always squeeze something out of Lancelot's mouth if he wanted to.

Although Lancelot would yell after teaching Hugh Igles every time: "Oh, I've talked too much again, don't think about what I'm going to teach you next time."

But in fact, it is not difficult to get some skills and experience about the use of grudges and fighting from his mouth.

And with the improvement of Gong Hao's survival experience in the jungle, he found that he could already compete head-on with some second-level monsters. According to Lancelot, in terms of strength, there is not much difference between a junior warrior and a first-level monster. But if we really want to fight, Warcraft must be defeated.

The reason is that they have fixed attack habits and shallow combat IQ, which allows humans to always attack each other's weaknesses. Only some magical beasts with high IQ above level 7 can compete with human warriors of the same level to some extent.

Therefore, for Warcraft, there is an absolutely obvious gap between levels above seven and those below level seven. This gap is not reflected in their combat strength, but in their wisdom.

On this day, Gong Hao was fighting a second-level monster, and in the midst of a hard fight, he suddenly felt that the fighting energy in his body had increased significantly, and he slashed out with a sword, which split the monster in half.

Surprised and joyful in his heart, he shouted at Lancelot: "My lord, look!"

I saw his Dou Qi flowing, and a metallic luster appeared around his body.

Lancelot said with a smile: "Congratulations, you have advanced. From today, you are a real junior bronze warrior."

Below the seventh-level warriors, the first to third-level warriors are bronze warriors, black iron warriors, and silver warriors.

The warriors of the fourth to sixth ranks are Vajra Warriors, Predator Warriors and Flame Warriors.

Therefore, the first three ranks of warriors are also called grassroots warriors or ordinary warriors, and the middle and third ranks are called war warriors, that is, warriors who play a decisive role in wars. The last three levels are free warriors. Star warriors are quasi-holy ranks, so they are also called pinnacle warriors. Xiang Gonghao said "you, the peak warrior" to Lancelot, that was pure flattery. But having said that, the ninth-level sky warrior should indeed belong to the peak level, but the size of the peak is different.

After each samurai is promoted, the grudge will be greatly improved, which will lead to the strengthening effect of the body, and at the same time produce a metal-like color.

At this time, Gong Hao's body showed the expression of dou qi overflowing his whole body, so Lancelot could tell at a glance that he had advanced.

So from this day on, whenever there are some weak monsters encountered on the road, Gong Hao will be responsible for smoothing them out, and the old man Lancelot will no longer do anything.

Perhaps because he found himself much more relaxed again, Lancelot felt that he might be able to teach Xiu Igleer something more, so that the third-level monsters would not have to do it by themselves in the future.

But not long after, he felt that maybe he could also hand over the cleaning work of the fourth-level monsters, so that he would save more effort.

The inert cultivation of people is always growing rapidly. Before Gong Hao had grown to that level, Lancelot already felt that it would be a good idea if he could hand over all the cleaning work of monsters below level seven to him.

But that meant that Hugh Iglesel had to become a level five Predator at least.

It's been a while.

Lancelot decided to train this kid well.

Anyway, there are more than 200 puppet warriors in Haines' castle, and he is there. No matter how strong this kid is, he can't find the palm of his hand.

Unknowingly, Lancelot is farther and farther away from the standard of "only a little teaching" that he set when he was teaching Gong Hao.

—————————————————

There are not many monsters to be captured today, Gong Hao and Lancelot came back early. Lancelot was a secluded hut, and Gong Hao had to return to the library to record and check the work status of the servants in each area.

Seeing that it was still early, Gong Hao decided to go to area 56 first.

"Hey, Hong, are you pretending to be your wife again?" Gong Hao said to the male blazing bird "Hong" with a smile.

Hong Yangtian let out a long hiss, obviously very unconvinced.

Although the blazing birds look exactly the same to humans, regardless of their feathers and coat color, Gong Hao still found a little difference between them.

When they are happy, the red and green will shake their wings and hiss to the sky. At this time, observe their eyes, and you will find that the eyeballs of the male blazing birds will be slightly red, while the females will be a little green. So Gong Hao named them Red and Green.

An easier way than to observe the eyes is to observe their behavior. Green likes to be clean, and often cleans her feathers when she has nothing to do. Hong has a more violent temperament, and always likes to stay at the mouth of the cage.

He knew it was the only way he could get out.

And whenever it's time for Green to draw blood, Red will drive his wife to the mouth of the cage, and then pretend to clean the feathers... Even now, Red still hopes to deceive the servants. Fortunately, the servants changed their magic number plates this time.

But for Gong Hao, the attitudes of red and green are much better.

Maybe it's because Gong Hao saved Hong, Hong never lost her temper with Gong Hao.

Seeing Gong Hao approaching at this moment, Hong yelled at Gong Hao a few times, seeing what it means, I don't have red eyes, how can you still know that I am Hong?

It doesn't make sense for him to know that he is red before looking at the number plate.

Gong Hao opened the cage door and walked in, touched the head of Lu who was guarding the mouth of the cage, and said to Hong: "You don't know how scary you are when you are guarding the mouth of the cage. Green is not like you. You pretend to be green, but you are not like green."

It turned out to be like this, Hong shook his head, raised his head to the sky and yelled a few times. He is also very helpless for his wife's "non-cooperation". If Ai Jie had such a keen observation ability back then, Hong would not have nearly died.

"Okay, it's time to let Lu out to play today, do you need me to accompany you here?" Gong Hao said, turning off the first layer of magic barrier, and sending Lu out of the cage.

As soon as he got out of the cage, Green immediately spread his wings, circled the iron cage and flew up, making a cheerful cry.

It was Gong Hao's suggestion to let a flaming bird out every day to relax.

Since Hong returned in good health, Andrew also felt that this was a good idea.

He is not out of kindness.

Blazing Bird can get more free opportunities, feel happy, and have better physical recovery ability, and can draw more blood.

Red looked at Lv's reluctance outside the cage, and yelled at Lv a few times, apparently urging his wife to go out and have fun. If he could, he might wish his wife never came back.

Gong Hao walked to Hong's side, and gently stroked its wings.

This is a very dangerous move. The blazing bird is a level 9 monster. When Lancelot faced two blazing birds alone, he managed to defeat them with the help of more than 20 puppet warriors and the alchemy props given to him by Hines, and captured them. The price was that all the puppet warriors were wiped out, and it was said that he lost a high-level puppet.

The magic cage will imprison most of the flame bird's power, but even so, it is very dangerous to get close to it. In addition to having a powerful flame-breathing ability, their steel claws, iron wings, and long and sharp beaks, everything can kill people. Every time the servant draws the flame bird's blood, it must be anesthetized in advance. The anesthesia used by the great alchemist Hines is very powerful and can work on most monsters. On the other hand, the seventh-level poisonous python has super strong anti-drug ability, and anesthesia is useless to it. That's why Lancelot needs to do it himself and teach Gong Hao how to cultivate Dou Qi.

But Gong Hao is not worried about Hong's terror, because Hong will not attack him.

He stroked the bright red fire feathers and said softly: "I know that you actually want to go out too. You really want to fly in the sky with your wife, free, right? It's not like now, where you can only get together every day in prison..."

"Yes, Hong, I am trapped on this island just like you. I also want to be free, and I want to get out. Believe me, Hong, no one understands what happened to you better than I do. Because we share the same destiny."

Gong Hao spoke softly, and only at this time can he speak his mind. He didn't know if Hong could understand, but he knew that Hong could definitely feel the sorrow in his heart.

Hong lowered his proud head.

The elemental bird is a large bird, standing on the ground, almost as tall as Gong Hao, but the next moment, it began to shrink its body, and kept spitting fire elements from its mouth.

With the eruption of the energy of the fire element, its body gradually became smaller, just like an ordinary bird, staying on Gong Hao's shoulder.

Gong Hao took out some of Hong's favorite fire hazel from his pocket, and let Hong's sharp beak peck at his palm.

Gong Hao once saw in the records that some monsters can freely control the size of their bodies, which allows them to come and go to some special areas more freely. This process of enlarging or shrinking the body is actually caused by the absorption and release of energy.

Although Gong Hao didn't know the meaning of shrinking his body at this time to the Flame Bird, judging from its behavior of staying on his shoulder, he was obviously expressing his friendship.

Although Hong can't speak, it doesn't prevent him from expressing his emotions in his own way.

This is an affirmation to Gong Hao, and also a thank you to him for helping him and still doing his best to make their lives happy.

Gong Hao smiled happily.

At this moment, Fink suddenly ran over in a hurry. Thanks to Gong Hao's blessing to become the butler, and thanks to his advice to Fink that day, Fink was lucky to stay until now and not be taken away.

Seeing Fink's eager look, Gong Hao knew that something might happen again.

Sure enough, the next moment Fink yelled: "Hui, Huey, a ship, a ship is coming!"

"What?" Gong Hao was taken aback: "This is impossible! It's not time for Freedom to deliver the goods yet."

"It's not the Liberty, it's another ship." Fink yelled, "Master Andrew is going to the port, and he wants me to tell you to let you go too. It looks like some important person has come."
