Chapter 112 There's someone ahead! (66 Subscription Requested)

Compared to practicing basic footwork, practicing basic body movements is much more strenuous and dangerous.

You need to constantly jump from the wooden stakes to the surrounding wooden stakes. The farther the distance, the more jumps you need, and the shorter the time interval, the more skill you will gain.

Several times Chen Fan accidentally fell off the wooden stake, but fortunately, apart from being a little disheveled, he was not seriously injured.

Of course, his practice movements looked a bit funny to outsiders, especially when he fell off the wooden stakes.

But when Zhang Ren came over and told them that everyone would have to practice this in the future, the smiles on everyone's faces shifted to Chen Fan's face.

Zhang Ren turned around, looked at the scene, a hint of surprise in his eyes, followed by a fleeting, almost imperceptible look of disappointment. He shook his head, turned, and left.

Chen Fan took in this scene.

I wonder if current medical technology can cure Uncle Zhang's disability? Even if it can, I'm afraid only Anshan City has the necessary equipment.

Uncle Zhang probably can't go there.

He sighed, focused his attention, and continued practicing his movements.

A few minutes later, a feeling of lightness rose from the soles of my feet.

Chen Fan was overjoyed, thinking that his basic movement technique had improved, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be just his basic footwork.

Basic Footwork: lv7 (0%), Traits: Swiftness lv7, Steadfastness lv4, Elusiveness lv1

This surprised him a bit, but he felt pretty good about it.

Because improving basic body techniques also improves proficiency in basic footwork, it's like practicing one skill while improving two – why not?

Furthermore, the basic footwork has unlocked new features.

He looked over,

[Ethereal Skill Level 1: Increases evasion chance by 30% for each skill level increase]

"It actually increases evasion."

Chen Fan was overjoyed.

In this way, his chances of winning against armed fighters will undoubtedly be higher.

The basic movement technique is not yet at level 1. To unlock the "Light Footwork on Water" skill, the basic movement technique requires level 3.

Presumably, this process will improve your basic footwork by at least two levels, right? At that point, with the level 3 elusive trait, your dodge chance will increase by 90%!

Putting aside everything else, an ordinary person definitely wouldn't be able to hit him with a gun. Of course, this is just his guess, and the actual effect will depend on real combat.

"continue."

Chen Fan continued jumping on the wooden stakes.

About ten minutes later, a feeling of lightness swept through my body, as if my whole body had become much lighter, much better than the feeling of the basic footwork before.

And some of them seemed familiar.

He quickly looked at the skills panel.

[Basic Movement Technique: lv1 (0%), Trait: Agility Level 1]

"It really was you."

Chen Fan was both amused and exasperated.

No wonder he felt it was familiar; it turns out this is one of the characteristics of Tai Chi Chuan, where each level increases agility by 3 points.

"My basic footwork has been upgraded by 4 levels, and with the addition of the 1 level of basic movement technique, my agility attribute has increased by 7 points."

Chen Fan was overjoyed. If you add the 2 levels and 13 points of agility he would gain later, the improvement was too fast.

Time passed by, and he became so engrossed in the moment that he didn't even notice that the sky around him had darkened.

"Chen Fan".

A voice rang out.

"Uncle Zhang?"

Chen Fan paused, turned around, and saw Zhang Ren approaching without him noticing.

"It's almost time."

Zhang Ren reminded him, his expression grave.

Chen Fan took a deep breath and looked at the skill bar. He was less than 10% away from reaching level 3 in basic movement technique.

Almost there, almost there, we were just a little short of meeting the completion requirements.

Fortunately, his basic footwork has been improved to level 9, which is considered to have met his expectations.

The enemy is approaching, so let's upgrade this later.

……

Ten miles away from Songjiabao, in the wilderness, an off-road vehicle was parked.

The vehicle was full of people, each holding a variety of firearms: rifles, submachine guns, and light machine guns, all with silencers attached to their muzzles.

The sky outside the window grew darker and darker, and in the distance, the faint roars of beasts could be heard.

"Brother, isn't it time to set off?"

Yang Xiaochun, sitting at the very back, asked nervously.

If they stay here any longer, it won't be long before the smell attracts ferocious beasts. The longer they stay, the more ferocious beasts they will attract, and the stronger they will become.

"Wait a little longer."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Yang squinted and said, "Even if we go now, there's still a chance we'll be discovered."

"Um."

Yang Mu, in the driver's seat, nodded.

You only get one chance; once you make a mistake, it will be difficult to succeed again.

Another half hour passed.

The roars of beasts in the distance seemed to be getting closer and closer, and there was a tendency for them to surround the area from all directions.

Inside the car, not only Yang Xiaochun, but also the others, began to panic.

Fortunately, the car shook slightly at that moment, and then continued to move forward.

"call……"

The group of people breathed a sigh of relief simultaneously.

"Hahaha," someone laughed, "No matter how careful the people in that village are, they would never have imagined that we would launch a surprise attack under the cover of night."

"That's right, we've taken a considerable risk; this time it's all or nothing."

"Don't talk nonsense. This time, we will definitely succeed."

As Yang Xiaochun listened, a smile gradually appeared on his face.

As agreed, the two brothers would get half of the money this time. With so much money, he wouldn't have to guard the city walls anymore and could practice martial arts with his older brother.

Lu Yang, in the passenger seat, looked ahead using night vision goggles.

Even with his third-level Body Tempering skill, he could only see a distance of about 100 meters at most at night.

"How's it going? Do you see the walls of Chenjia Village?"

Yang Mu asked while gripping the steering wheel.

"not yet."

Lu Yang shook his head. "I estimate we'll have to drive another kilometer or two."

"Okay, as long as the direction is right."

Yang Mu said that the front of his car was facing Chenjia Village, and as long as he kept driving like this, he would definitely be able to see it.

Yang Xiaochun gripped the gun handle somewhat nervously.

Although he had seen many dead people and had shot targets, this was the first time he had killed someone with a gun.

The thought of this made his body tremble involuntarily.

"Are you nervous?"

The man next to him patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "If all else fails, just wait for us in the car. We'll take care of things in a few minutes."

"Waiting in the car probably won't work. I think you should come in with us. Those guys don't have any guns, so we just need to be careful."

"No, I'm fine."

Yang Xiaochun straightened his chest, about to say something, when he suddenly heard Lu Yang in the front passenger seat exclaim in surprise.

"Someone's there!"

"What?!"

Yang Mu slammed on the brakes and looked at Lu Yang in shock.

The people inside the car were instantly thrown forward.

But no one blamed Yang Mu; instead, they looked ahead with a tense and puzzled expression.

How could there possibly be anyone here?

You must understand that it is nighttime now, the night of ferocious beasts.

Just as someone was about to ask what was going on, they heard Lu Yang shout loudly and rush out of the car.

"Get out of here!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard not far ahead, followed by a whoosh.

An arrow more than a meter long shattered the windshield of the car in an instant. With the sound of glass breaking, it pierced Yang Mu's chest and pinned him hard to the seat.

Yang Mu didn't even manage to utter a scream before becoming completely still.

The arrow continued its trajectory, pinning the thigh of the next man to the cart. The man let out a hysterical scream that echoed across the quiet wilderness.

This all happened so fast that the other passengers on the bus are still unaware of what has occurred.

"Come out quickly!"

As Lu Yang escaped, he roared, his voice tinged with fear, "It's that guy! That guy's coming!"

As he spoke, he suddenly pulled the trigger, and the submachine gun spewed fire at a certain spot in front of him, bullets pouring out.

More than 200 meters, more than 200 meters, that is exactly the effective range of the K8 submachine gun in his hand. The magazine capacity is 30 rounds and the rate of fire is 90 bullets per second. In other words, it can empty the bullets in the magazine in almost an instant.

Moreover, the muzzle velocity is 380 meters per second, which means that at a distance of more than 200 meters, it takes less than half a second.

However, his expression froze the next moment, because he saw through his night vision goggles that the man had disappeared from the spot almost the instant he fired the shot.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of something cutting through the air rang out again.

An arrow whistled through his chest, leaving a horrifying, fist-sized hole in his chest.

The powerful kinetic energy of the arrow propelled him more than ten meters through the air before he crashed heavily to the ground.

"what!"

Only then did screams erupt from inside the car.

Two of them scrambled out of the SUV, knowing that staying inside meant certain death.

"Help me! Help me!"

The man whose thigh was pierced by an arrow cried out to the two who had run away, glancing at his bleeding thigh from time to time.

He didn't want to die, he really didn't want to die!

As for Yang Xiaochun, he was completely terrified, sitting blankly in the car seat with a vacant look in his eyes.

"call out!"

"call out!"

Two sharp whistles rang out in quick succession, and the two men who had rolled out of the car were each pinned to the ground by an arrow, not even having time to fire back.

Or rather, they had no idea who attacked them, where they were, who they were, or why they did it.

"Ah! Help! Help me! Someone please save me!"

He watched helplessly as his companions fell one by one to the arrows. The man whose thigh was pinned to the ground tried to pull out the arrow, but with just a slight movement, he let out a bloodcurdling scream.

Then, the next second, an arrow pierced the night sky, flew past the front window of the car, passed through his chest, and flew out of the car.

The screams abruptly stopped.

The air was thick with the stench of blood.

At this moment, a figure holding a bow in his left hand and an arrow nocked in his right slowly appeared.

"I knew there should be one more."

Chen Fan muttered to himself as he saw Yang Xiaochun's figure.

He has a physique close to 100 points and an aiming skill, but at night, he can only see a distance of about 200 meters at most.

He was able to launch the attack because he had heard the sound of wheels crushing the weeds long before he made his move, and only when the outline of the car appeared in his field of vision did he take action.

The moment the person behind him fired, he saw the flash and instinctively dodged to the side. He dodged so quickly that even he was stunned for a moment.

"No, don't kill me!"

Yang Xiaochun finally reacted and pleaded with the person in front of him, "Don't kill me, please, I'll give you anything you want, just don't kill me."

He vaguely guessed who had killed his older brother and the others.

It's that sharpshooter from Chenjia Village!

It must be him!

He didn't have time to think about why the other person was there; all he wanted now was to survive!

The bowstring rang out.

The sound stopped abruptly the next moment.

Blood was gushing from his chest, and an arrow had flown out from the steel plate at the back of the vehicle, leaving a hole.

"If only I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?"

Chen Fan muttered something to himself.

He had no intention of getting close to this guy and wasting his breath; it would be embarrassing if he accidentally messed things up.

The roars of beasts grew closer, and the stench of blood here would soon be followed by countless ferocious beasts.

He didn't have much time left, so he had to hurry and loot the spoils. At the very least, he had to take a few guns and a few iron arrows. Compared to those, they were nothing; he could come back to retrieve them tomorrow.

As for the car, let's hope those ferocious beasts don't damage it too badly.

He breathed a sigh of relief. The crisis brought by this herd of wildebeest should be over, right? Finally, he could catch his breath.
