Electromagnetic Tyrant

This time, Ji Xinghuo chose to walk.

Chang'an's urban planning is extremely good, and it completely separates people and vehicles. Most cars drive on elevated superconducting highways, and there are very few vehicles on the ground. The separately designed ground roads are also closed, occupying only a small area. area.

Therefore, the open space between the buildings has been transformed into a continuous urban park, with a large number of trees and flowers planted, with a high degree of greening and a beautiful environment.

However, Chang'an's population is too large.

Qishan District is relatively remote. It is now around two o'clock in the afternoon. However, Ji Xinghuo is walking on the park trail and there are many pedestrians coming and going.

Some people were walking and chatting in a leisurely manner, while others were in a hurry, wearing power shoes and gliding by quickly.

There are also couples sitting among remote flowers and making love to each other.

There are more people like Ji Xinghuo who walk alone. He has lived in this community for several years. Occasionally he meets familiar people on the road and nods to each other.

But that's about it.

Ji Xinghuo didn't know them, and the other party didn't know Ji Xinghuo either. They were both polite and distant.

ten minutes later.

Ji Xinghuo came to a stadium that was more than ten stories high. The sign outside the wall read "Qishan Wutong Archery Hall".

"I have arrived."

He posted a message at the door.

Soon, a tall, thin, long-haired young man ran out of the archery hall and shouted in surprise: "Xinghuo! I thought you were joking with me, but here you are!"

"Sea of ​​clouds."

Ji Xinghuo also laughed, bumped fists with each other, and then hugged each other and let go.

Lu Yunhai was his classmate and one of his best friends in college. He met him almost every day before graduation.

On that graduation trip, Lu Yunhai took his girlfriend with him.

"Are you okay now?" Lu Yunhai asked with concern. He had heard Ji Xinghuo say before that he often had insomnia after returning from travel.

"It's been solved." Ji Xinghuo showed a somewhat mysterious smile, "My current condition couldn't be better."

"oh?"

Lu Yunhai took a step back and took a closer look. He was a little suspicious at first, and then he was shocked, "Have you become a stranger?"

Ji Xinghuo nodded.

"Holy shit!" Lu Yunhai was surprised and then felt normal. His face was full of envy, and he hit Ji Xinghuo's shoulder hard, "I knew you would definitely become a stranger. You should have walked out of this place a few years ago. It’s a step forward, otherwise we wouldn’t have allowed that guy Wu Qifeng to remain arrogant until graduation.”

Wu Qifeng is also a classmate of the two. They are both friends and also have a competitive relationship.

However, Wu Qifeng's talent is very good. He successfully integrated the alien species in his first year of college. His professional template is still a relatively strong "gravity warrior". He stole the show in the class during college.

"Which career template did you choose?" Lu Yunhai asked curiously.

"Ranger."

"Why is it a ranger?" Lu Yunhai was stunned for a moment.

He was very familiar with Ji Xinghuo. He had never heard Ji Xinghuo mention choosing a ranger before, which was far from what he expected.

"Isn't your goal the 'Titanium Cobalt Dragon'? Why did you give up?" Lu Yunhai couldn't help but shake his head, "You couldn't have applied for an over-limit superpower but your application was rejected. That would be a pity."

Titanium Cobalt Dragons are a profession unique to the Asia-Pacific Community. They are rare in number and have superior strength. They are one of the top professional templates in the world.

Any Titanium Cobalt Dragonite will at least be a super alien in the future.

Whether in terms of strength, potential, or power and status, the Titanium Cobalt Dragons are far superior to the Rangers. There is a huge difference between the two.

"I didn't apply, I just changed my plan." Ji Xinghuo didn't explain much.

Lu Yunhai saw that he didn't want to say more, and he didn't want to delve into the details, so he smiled and said, "Ranger is pretty good too. You don't have to worry about employment."

Only then did he realize it, with a look of surprise on his face, "No wonder you came to me!"

"You work in the archery hall. If I don't look for you, who can I look for?" Ji Xinghuo spread his hands.

The Ranger's main weapon is the bow.

In the early stages of a ranger, at least before being promoted to a super alien, 70% of a ranger's strength lies in bows and arrows. Archery must not only be mastered, but must also be practiced diligently.

Lu Yunhai has practiced bow and arrow since he was a child and has excellent shooting skills. He was the vice president of the archery club in college.

In his sophomore year, Lu Yunhai tried to fuse alien species and become a "stalker". This profession is very close to the ranger. It also uses bows and arrows as its main weapons and has battle pets, so it can be understood as a hunter.

Unfortunately, Lu Yunhai's integration failed.

However, Lu Yunhai did not give up. After he recovered, he started working part-time outside the school to save money to buy the second fusion of alien species. He has been working until now.

After graduation, Lu Yunhai officially became the coach of the archery hall.

Ji Xinghuo wanted to learn archery, and he immediately thought of his good friends, and since he was very close to home, of course he wanted to add some achievements to Lu Yunhai.

When Lu Yunhai heard that he wanted to learn archery, he looked very proud.

"You were not willing to join the club before, but now you have to pay me to learn archery. Do you regret it? Hehe..."

Ji Xinghuo suddenly lost his temper and said, "You want to give me a discount."

"Okay, okay, I'll give you the best price." Lu Yunhai had enough of ridicule and felt comfortable, "Follow me."

He took Ji Xinghuo into the archery hall.

When I met colleagues and students along the way, many people would call Lu Yunhai "Coach Lu", which shows that he has a high status in the archery hall.

"You're doing well." Ji Xinghuo teased.

"Of course." Lu Yunhai boasted, "Although I'm not a stranger yet, I'm only as good as archery. I can be ranked among the top five in our gym, and I can even compete for the top three. Only the gym director can steadily suppress me. One end.”

Ji Xinghuo was a little curious, "Is the curator very powerful?"

"Definitely!" Lu Yunhai said with admiration, "Our curator is also a ranger like you, but he is a super alien. There are countless people who want to learn archery from him, and many of them are aliens. One lesson The fee is tens of thousands of Asian dollars, and every time the class schedule is released, it is sold out.”

Ji Xinghuo nodded.

No matter what kind of job a super alien does, his income is ridiculously high.

According to public data from the Astral Ministry, the number of super aliens in the Asia-Pacific community exceeded 150,000 last year, while there are 5.6 billion people in the country. The low proportion of super aliens shows their rarity and value.

It is not difficult for any super alien to make money.

Lu Yunhai quickly registered Ji Xinghuo as a member and said, "Different types of bows have different courses and prices. Which one do you want to learn, traditional bow, barebow, or compound bow?"

"Compound bow."

Ji Xinghuo answered without thinking too much, and didn't even ask about the price difference.

Lu Yunhai nodded without surprise.

This is also the choice of most rangers. The reason is very simple. The compound bow has the most power, the fastest arrow speed, and the highest accuracy.

Although traditional bows and barebows have some advantages, and the compound bow itself also has shortcomings, it is difficult to make up for the huge power gap.

In fact, there is a competitive recurve bow. Because there are too many accessories, it is inconvenient to carry, troublesome to maintain, and too delicate and cumbersome to be practical in combat. Therefore, there are almost no rangers to choose from. Generally, only enthusiasts will use it in sports competitions. It is very minority.

The barebow is a competitive recurve bow with most accessories removed.

Some traditional bows are recurve bows.

"There are 20 elementary courses for compound bows, one lesson per day, and the total fee is 6,000 Asian dollars."

Lu Yunhai lowered his voice, "I'll give you a 30% discount."

"Okay, thank you very much."

Ji Xinghuo knew that even if the archery hall had a discount, it would not be possible to reduce the price to 30% off, otherwise it would have been a loss long ago. Lu Yunhai should have subsidized some of it himself.

He silently noted the favor.

"Why are we so polite to each other? You actually said thank you to me." Lu Yunhai muttered dissatisfied, registered Ji Xinghuo for the course, paid the fee, and said, "Let's go and get started now."

More than ten floors of this venue belong to the archery hall, and each floor is a wide shooting range.

The two came to the third floor, and most of the shooting positions on the shooting range were occupied. Some practice on their own, while others take lessons from a coach.

Lu Yunhai chose a shooting position and asked, "I'll get the bow. Do you want a hunting bow or a shooting bow?"

Compound bows are also subdivided into two types.

There is no structural difference between a hunting bow and an aiming bow.

In order to facilitate traveling in complex wild environments, such as forests and tunnels, hunting bows will have smaller bows, heavier pounds, and stronger power; while shooting bows have lower portability requirements and are suitable for use in open areas. The bow will be larger and the target will usually be farther away, so the poundage will be slightly lowered to improve accuracy.

Of course, most of the skills of the two types of compound bows are common, and there are many comprehensive bow types on the market that serve both purposes.

Ji Xinghuo already knew these basic knowledge of archery.

"I want a hunting bow."

Lu Yunhai asked again: "Where's the poundage?"

"70 kilograms." Ji Xinghuo estimated before replying.

The poundage is the amount of force required to draw a bow. The higher the poundage, the more powerful it is. However, as early as more than a century ago, the unit of pounds was changed to the "kilogram" that everyone is more accustomed to.

70 kilograms converted into previous pounds is about 155 pounds.

"Oh shit!"

Lu Yunhai looked envious and cursed.

It would take several years of practice for ordinary people to draw a compound hunting bow of this weight, and the body must be very strong, but Ji Xinghuo, a beginner, started practicing with a bow of this weight.

He has practiced archery for many years and usually only uses 60 kilograms.

"It's cool to be a stranger."

Lu Yunhai often came into contact with strangers in the archery studio and was almost used to it. He quickly went to get a compound bow and said, "Let me adjust the parameters first."

For a bow to perform optimally, it must match the size of the shooter.

The first is the draw distance.

Ji Xinghuo is 1.8 meters tall, but his wingspan is 198 centimeters. According to the formula conversion, his draw length is 79 centimeters. That is, when the bow is fully drawn, the most comfortable posture and the perfect force, the archer and the hook The distance between the string hands.

After adjusting the poundage and aiming parameters, Lu Yunhai handed the bow to Ji Xinghuo, "Try to see if it fits in your hand."

Ji Xinghuo took it.

The wheelbase of this composite hunting bow is 85 centimeters. The handle is made of aluminum alloy with a common hollow structure. The bow blades are made of carbon fiber composite material. The whole bow is very light to buy, less than 3 kilograms. With your own strength, You can't feel much weight in your hand.

Although the bow used by the ranger will give up many accessories.

However, this compound bow still retains the sight, which is a five-pin sight, as well as a drop arrow rest, shock absorber, string stopper and string splitter.

These are small, non-damageable accessories that are of great help in assisting shooting.

"When you were a junior in college, you participated in activities in the archery club. Do you still remember the basic movements of archery?" Lu Yunhai asked.

"Of course." Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Lu Yunhai pointed at the target opposite, "Shoot an arrow and show me."

Ji Xinghuo turned sideways to the archery target, picked up a training arrow and put it on the bow. He did not use a release device. The arrow was placed on the right arrow rest of the bow handle, and he used the Mongolian shooting method, hooking it with his thumb. He clasped the bow string and his thumb with his index finger and looked at the archery target thirty meters away.

All these designs that violate conventional archery methods are for one purpose, and that is actual combat!

Shoot the most lethal arrows at the fastest speed and frequency.

Ji Xinghuo's eyes were fixed on the archery target. The ten-ring yellow bullseye with a diameter of 8 centimeters at a distance of thirty meters seemed to him to be close at hand and within reach.

An intuition emerged in his mind that he could easily hit the desired location.

The Vientiane Star Pupil is taking effect and is more accurate than "accurate".

He took a breath.

Then, I pushed the bow with my left hand and used force with my right hand to pull the bow string. The 70 kilogram weight was not particularly difficult in my hand, and it was pulled smoothly.

A compound bow has one bow string and two bow cables, which are synchronously transmitted by force when pulling. When the string is nearly full, the eccentric pulleys at both ends of the bow body come into play, reducing the force required to maintain the bow draw by 80%, making it easier to use both hands. more stable.

The "peep hole" installed on the bow string was pulled to the right eye, and the three points formed a straight line through the hole, the tip of the second aiming pin of the sight, and the bullseye in the distance.

In fact, the sight and peephole were just decorations in Ji Xinghuo's eyes.

Without these auxiliary accessories, he can still shoot accurately.

Snapped!

A soft sound.

Ji Xinghuo let go and shot the arrow, which turned into a black line and penetrated deeply into the target in an instant.

"Ten rings!"

Lu Yunhai shouted out the ring number with disbelief in his eyes.

He knew very well that Ji Xinghuo had touched a bow a few times before, and he had only scratched the surface of his knowledge about archery.

Although the shooting process of this arrow is very smooth, there are many mistakes, which is typical for novices.

But it hit, and it was ten rings!

"Bullshit luck." Lu Yunhai refused, "Just shoot another arrow."

Ji Xinghuo smiled, picked up the second training arrow, turned sideways, raised the arrow, hooked the string, pushed the bow, lowered the shoulders, aligned, pulled the string, leaned into position, aimed, released, and closed the arrow, all in one go.

Bang, ten rings!

Before Lu Yunhai could say anything, he shot three more arrows in succession. His dexterous hands accelerated the shooting action, each one faster than the last.

Ten rings! Ten rings! Ten rings!

Lu Yunhai was stunned, looking at the five arrows stuck in the bullseye, and had to believe that Ji Xinghuo shot five ten-rings in a row.

He has worked in the archery hall for several years and has taught several novices who have just become rangers, but none of them are as accurate as Ji Xinghuo without even practicing.

"The first ability you fuse won't be 'accuracy', right?" Lu Yunhai was a little skeptical.

The composition and abilities of professional templates and their fusion order are not fixed.

Generally speaking, the first thing to be integrated is the core ability.

Although it is a very rare situation, there are also some aliens who choose to incorporate non-core abilities due to personal preferences or other reasons.

"What I fused is Thousand Dexterous Hands." Ji Xinghuo put the arrowhead of an arrow on the tip of his index finger, keeping it balanced and never falling over, and said with a smile: "Can't I be a natural archer? Do you have the world’s top shooting talent?”

"Why haven't you..."

Lu Yunhai stopped mid-sentence.

The professional ability that he was most proud of was suddenly broken by his friends. He instinctively wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, he could only recognize the reality and said seriously: "It is indeed possible, okay, you are awesome! It seems that there is a certain reason why you chose Ranger."

"But this is just a thirty-meter target, and it's a fixed target."

"You're nowhere near a top shooter."

"You still have a lot to learn about archery and compound bows." Lu Yunhai put on the confident posture that a coach should have.

Ji Xinghuo nodded and said modestly: "Please give me Coach Lu's advice."
