High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Chapter 15 Tomorrow, can I leave the village with you all?

At this moment, Chen Fan had already stopped fifty meters away from the target, reached behind him with his right hand, took out an arrow from the arrow basket on his back, and nocked it on the string.

"What?"

Chen Guodong exclaimed inwardly, his eyes widening. Could it be that he was going to hit the target from such a distance?

Before he could think further, a "whoosh" sound was heard, and a flash of light appeared on the dark arrowhead. It disappeared in an instant. In the distance, the target trembled violently, and an arrow, perfectly aligned, was embedded in the center of the target. A dull thud echoed from afar and reached the ears of everyone present.

"!"

In an instant, Chen Guodong's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. A bullseye from fifty meters away? Was he dreaming?

The woman standing to the side also looked completely incredulous.

Chen Fan, however, acted as if nothing had happened. He calmly stretched out his right hand, took out a second arrow from the quiver, and nocked it.

"Whoosh!"

A sound of something cutting through the air was so clear in the quiet night.

"bump!"

The second arrow also hit the bullseye, right next to the first.

Chen Guodong's mouth was wide open, his chin almost touching the ground.

Once could be considered lucky, but twice? Judging from his expression, it seems he intends to continue?

Chen Fan remained silent, his expression calm as still water. He took out the third arrow, drew the bowstring taut once more, and released it swiftly.

"bump!"

Three bullseyes.

Then came the fourth and the fifth.

Before they knew it, sweat was beading on the foreheads of Chen Guodong and his wife. They went from disbelief at the beginning to astonishment in the middle, and now they were even a little numb.

At some point, Wang Ping and his companions arrived. Upon seeing this scene, they stood there in astonishment, speechless. Although they could guess that Chen Fan's archery skills were certainly not bad, they did not expect that they would be this bad.

It's practically a 100% hit rate, isn't it?

The lame man stood to the side, his lips twitching slightly. So this kid brought his family here to show off? Damn it, he still managed to pull it off.

At this moment, Chen Fan turned around with a faint smile on his face. "Dad, tomorrow, I should be able to go hunting with you, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent again, and everyone, including the lame man, looked shocked.

Chen Guodong gave a wry smile. What could he say at this point? Even though his archery skills were somewhat inferior to those of the Wei brothers, considering that Chen Fan had only practiced for two or three days, it was already quite remarkable.

The woman beside him opened her mouth, unsure of what to say.

"I think we should be cautious about this matter."

The lame man's voice rang out. He looked at Chen Fan with a serious expression and said, "The wilderness is not like the village. It's dangerous, and the ferocious beasts are not easy targets. You'd better practice your archery skills for a few more days before going out."

"Yeah yeah."

Upon hearing this, the woman quickly echoed her sentiments.

The main problem was that Chen Fan just left without warning, and she wasn't prepared at all.

Chen Guodong's eyes flickered slightly, clearly indicating that he shared the same thought.

Chen Fan shook his head and said firmly, "Uncle Zhang, I understand your good intentions, but one can also hone archery skills in the wild, can't one?"

The lame man was taken aback and was speechless.

Yes, you always improve faster in real combat than in daily training, whether it's archery or marksmanship. It's a very simple truth.

"As for danger, where isn't dangerous?"

Chen Fan said something, looking intently at Chen Guodong, as if to say, "Dad, now you shouldn't have any reason to refuse, right?"

"it is good."

Chen Guodong seemed to have mustered up his courage to say the word, "Tomorrow morning, you'll come out with us."

"Guodong!"

The woman gasped in surprise.

Chen Guodong shook his head at her and looked at Chen Fan, saying, "We're going out tomorrow, so don't practice too late tonight. Go home and rest early."

"Um."

Chen Fan smiled.

On the way back, the woman complained, "How could you agree to him? He's not even an adult yet. What if something bad happens to him?"

Chen Guodong sighed, "We have to go out eventually. You've seen Xiao Fan's archery skills. If he can hit one or two prey in the wild, it will greatly relieve the pressure on the village."

"..."

The woman fell silent for a moment, then said:

"Then you must ensure his safety."

"Don't worry, unless I'm dead."

Chen Guodong resolutely blocked the railway.

Even so, he wasn't very optimistic.

As Zhang Ren said, wild beasts are not sitting ducks. When they sense danger, they will run away, and they are very fast, so ordinary people can't catch up with them at all.

Of course, there are also those who won't run away; these are all synonyms for danger.

Xiao Fan can hit the bullseye from fifty meters away, but if he were really in the wild, facing a ferocious beast running at full speed, would he still be able to hit it?

But no matter what, his addition to the hunting team boosted everyone's confidence, and even if they missed, no one would say anything.

On an open space.

The lame man's eyes were filled with complex emotions. "You brat, you wanted to go hunting, but you didn't even discuss it with me first?"

Chen Fan scratched his head, looking embarrassed, and said, "Uncle Zhang, I just had a sudden idea. I discussed it with my dad at the dinner table, but I haven't had a chance to discuss it with you yet."

"You're still too impulsive," the lame man shook his head. "Wouldn't it be better to practice for a few more days and become more proficient?"

"Uncle Zhang, there's not much time left."

Chen Fan had no choice but to say it.

Sure enough, the lame man's eyes immediately dimmed.

The atmosphere also became heavy.

Chen Fan didn't like seeing people looking gloomy, especially since it was caused by his words, so he smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, I'd appreciate it if you could help me with the training from now on."

"Just a small favor."

After finishing his sentence, the lame man limped away into the distance. He could easily tell that Chen Fan was changing the subject, but he was also helpless in the face of the village's predicament.

What I did was probably just help him out during his training.

Four or five hours passed, and everyone, including the lame man, was exhausted. Even so, no one complained or groaned. They took turns helping Chen Fan train his archery skills.

Some of them wanted to go out with Chen Fan, but ultimately couldn't muster the courage.

With a dull thud, a warm current flowed through his body, and his [Basic Archery] skill leveled up.

Chen Fan finally felt relieved, and a thought crossed his mind.

Basic Archery: lv4 (0%), Traits: Strength 4, Arm Strength 4, Slow Shot 4, Mounted Archery 2

Level 2 mounted archery means that his accuracy when aiming at moving targets can reach 60%, which undoubtedly adds great combat power to his hunting trip outside the village tomorrow.

The fact that the slow-fire reached level 4 puzzled him.

In this way, if you aim at a fixed target and achieve a 120% hit rate, exceeding 100%, what's the point? Isn't it all just a matter of being steady and reliable?

No, that's not right.

He frowned. Perhaps this hit rate was just a theoretical value on the panel, not the actual value after aiming at the prey?
