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

Chapter 75 Beware of that bald guy

"you're good."

A strange light appeared in Meng Yu's eyes. "When they sprinted to about 500 meters, you started to draw your bow and shoot an arrow. Almost every second, you would shoot an arrow, and every arrow hit its mark. After a dozen seconds, half of those people died under your arrow. There were even two people, one in front and one behind, who were killed by your arrow."

Chen Fan nodded upon hearing this; this was considered his normal performance.

However, he didn't show much joy on his face, because Meng Yu had said that the other side still had half their number.

"And then what happened?"

"Later, those people must have come into range, and under the organization of that bald guy in front, everyone was aiming at you."

"Then what about me?"

Chen Fan asked instinctively.

Running away is probably not an option.

If he were in that situation, he would only have two choices: either continue shooting arrows, in which case he would also be shot by the enemy, or pick up a spear and see if he could block the rain of arrows.

"you……"

Admiration appeared in Meng Yu's eyes.

"I saw you hesitate for a moment, then throw away your bow and arrows, pick up a spear from the side, and deflect all the incoming arrows."

A hint of surprise appeared in Chen Fan's eyes.

It must be the basic marksmanship that comes into play, with the ultimate move combined with the weapon's special characteristics, resulting in an alarmingly high success rate for parrying.

But this puts them in a passive position. Even if these people can't do anything to them in the short term, their fathers...

"After those men fired at you a few more times, the bald leader realized he couldn't do anything to you, so he jumped off his horse, grabbed his long axe, and charged at you. He then ordered the others to chase after Uncle Guodong and the others."

Meng Yu paused for a moment, then said, "My dream ends here."

That's enough.

Chen Fan gave a wry smile.

Leaving aside his own fate, his father, Uncle Liu, and Uncle Gu will certainly not fare much better. In front of the archer cavalry, they will only become sitting ducks.

As for Gu Ze, he might not even have time to shoot an arrow, because he would definitely become the enemy's main target.

This is truly a terrible ending.

"So, you're saying this will happen tomorrow?"

"Um."

Meng Yu nodded, then hesitated and said, "I think if you don't go tomorrow, you can avoid this from happening."

"I understand your good intentions, but this matter is probably not that simple."

Chen Fan took a deep breath and said, "You said before that those people were waiting outside for us to come out, right?"

"Yes, I saw that bald man with binoculars," she said quickly.

"This means that the other side has been watching us for a long time. They must have been watching us from the moment we entered Songjiabao. So, even if we don't go tomorrow, we will still be watched the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, that seems to be the case."

Meng Yu thought for a moment, then nodded, looking a little dazed.

"There should be people watching outside Songjiabao, specifically choosing targets. If what happened in your dream really happens, then we must go tomorrow."

Chen Fan answered without hesitation.

"what?"

Meng Yu looked puzzled.

She was willing to reveal her identity just to warn everyone not to go tomorrow, but after hearing this, Chen Fan became even more determined to go.

She found it hard to accept.

Chen Fan glanced at her and explained, "Because of your precognitive abilities, I already know their situation. But if we don't go tomorrow, we'll most likely encounter them the day after tomorrow, and the situation might be different then."

"You...you're planning to strike first?"

Meng Yu looked shocked.

"Um."

A murderous glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes. "In the dream, I discovered them immediately, but it was too late, and I ended up on the defensive. However, if I had struck first, the outcome would have been very different."

Although its range has not changed, it is still around 500 meters.

Firstly, it can catch the other party off guard. Secondly, acceleration takes time, and these two time differences can be significant enough to determine many things.

Meng Yu was stunned for a moment. Thinking back, Chen Fan did seem to have that ability.

"That,"

She stammered, "Then you must be careful of that bald guy in the lead. He's very strong. He blocked both of your arrows with his axe."

"What?"

Chen Fan asked in disbelief, "Are you sure he blocked both of my arrows?"

"Um."

"After he saw you aim at him, he picked up his long axe and shot two arrows at you, which he blocked one by one."

Meng Yu said in a low voice.

Chen Fan's expression changed.

It seems he is a master of long weapons, which explains why, at the end of the dream, he made everyone else leave so he could fight him one-on-one.

"How far away was I when I aimed at him?"

"Four or five hundred meters."

Meng Yu recalled, "He was at the very front, and the people at the very front didn't seem to be carrying bows; they were all holding shields."

Your first target was that bald guy, and after that was blocked, you turned your attention to the others, including those with shields, who eventually fell to your arrows as well.

"I see."

Chen Fan understood.

Following the principle of "capture the leader first," it was normal for him to aim at the bald man first. However, he didn't expect to kick a hornet's nest and waste two arrow opportunities.

If I could do it all over again, I would either take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness and shoot him first.

Alternatively, wait until the opponent is within a hundred or two meters of range; at that point, the power of an arrow would be enough to shatter the long axe in his hand, making it impossible to block.

Which one to use will depend on the circumstances at that time.

After considering it for a moment, he looked at Meng Yu and said, "Miss Meng Yu, thank you for reminding me. If it weren't for your reminder, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Meng Yu blushed and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "I'm so grateful that you took me in and gave me food. Otherwise, I wouldn't be alive today. Besides, if something happened to you, none of the people in the village would survive."

"Um."

Chen Fan nodded slightly.

That's right. If something happens to them, the remaining people in Chenjia Village will only be waiting to die.

He felt he had been careful enough, but the world was still too dangerous.

Of course, it's also possible that Meng Yu's words are false and that such a thing will not happen in the future. Although this is unlikely, judging from the other party's previous behavior, it doesn't seem like she's making up a story.

"Let's leave it at that for now. Don't worry, I won't mention your matter to anyone."

Chen Fan stood up, walked to the door, then turned back and said, "If what you said is true, I will not force you to make any predictions in the future."

"Thanks."

Meng Yu's eyes reddened.

Chen Fan nodded, pushed open the door and went out. He needed to verify the information again.
