I assembled the strongest swordsman group.

In the blink of an eye, Qingdeng drew his bow again with lightning speed.

Chi Chi!

Another arrow flew out.

puff!

Another archer fell to the ground after being shot.

The same headshot.

The same head exploded.

The Japanese bow, as the largest and most practical weapon in the world, is somewhat cumbersome and not very flexible, but its power should not be underestimated.

"Damn it! Let's hide!"

"Be careful! That guy's archery skills are amazing!"

"Hide! Hide now!"

At this moment, the surviving archers finally came to their senses and hurriedly sought cover while drawing their bows to return fire.

With his sword in his mouth, Qing Deng, holding a bow in one hand and a quiver in the other, nimbly rolled behind a nearby boulder.

—Three people went west, and five others ran east…

Qingdeng half-closed his eyes and focused intently on his ears.

"Wind Sensor", "Gathering Spirit", and "Lone Warrior" activated!

Qingdeng used sound to pinpoint the archers' location, determining their current position based on their footsteps.

At the same time, the panoramic view of his surroundings reappeared before his eyes.

Deep within Qingdeng's mind, an invisible battle has begun once again.

The archers, now in different positions, along with he himself, engage in a fierce archery battle in this new "virtual battlefield."

Listening to the archers' footsteps while simultaneously constructing a new "virtual battlefield" in one's mind... this is undoubtedly extremely mentally taxing.

Fortunately, Qingdeng has "Super Brain +9"!

The amount of computation that ordinary people find difficult to handle is completely insignificant to Qingdeng, who possesses "Divine Brain +9"!

In the blink of an eye, Qingdeng leaned half of his body out from behind the rock.

Also protruding from the rocks were bows with arrows nocked and strings fully drawn.

Whoosh!

The shadows of the trees instantly swallowed the arrows—the muffled thud of arrows piercing flesh echoed from afar.

In the blink of an eye, another arrow flew out, piercing straight into someone's heart.

A moment later, a new arrow flashed past someone's eyes.

Just as this man was secretly relieved that "Qingdeng's shot missed," he suddenly heard a shrill scream from behind him.

He turned his head and saw his companion behind him clutching the arrow shaft that had pierced his chest, lying on his back, kicking and struggling in pain, teetering on the edge of life and death.

He was so shocked that his expression changed drastically.

In his haste, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck. Looking down, he saw a conspicuous decoration on his prominent Adam's apple—an arrow.

When was I shot by an arrow?

The question had barely crossed his mind when his consciousness was permanently cut off...

With each twang of Qingdeng's bowstring, someone would inevitably be struck by an arrow and fall to the ground.

One arrow, one kill... Qing Deng's terrifying archery skills are no longer just frightening, they are terrifying!

Although Qingdeng hasn't studied archery for very long, what can you do when he's a cheat code?

Thanks to the "archery master" whose "archery talent is 18 times that of ordinary people," Qingdeng reached an archery level that ordinary people could not reach even after more than ten years of hard work in just a few months.

Moreover, Qingdeng also has "seeing through" as an aid.

The talent effect of "Insight" is "Excellent spatial awareness".

This talent might not be very useful in daily life, but it's extremely useful in combat... especially when using ranged weapons like bows and guns.

A good sense of space means it's easier to control the distance between yourself and the target, thus greatly improving shooting accuracy.

Looking at the Black-Clad Clan members he had shot to pieces, Qing Deng felt for the first time so grateful that he was proficient in archery.

"I'll have to find some time later to properly thank His Highness Tianzhang..." Qingdeng thought to himself.

Under Qingdeng's precise shots, the archers dared not show their faces, unaware that they had unknowingly made a very serious mistake.

Qingdeng's activity drew everyone's attention to him.

However... at this moment and in this place, the opponent they have to face is not just Qing Deng alone!

Cha-cha-cha-cha-cha!

Suddenly, a rapid rustling sound of grass being kicked came from beside an archer.

He turned his head at the sound—the raised naginata blocked the sunlight, casting a huge shadow on his face…

********

********

For some reason, I always feel that Sanako wielding that big sword gives off a strangely smug vibe. (Leopard licking.jpg)

Tonight, I'm updating before nightfall, which hasn't happened in a long time! I'm working hard to adjust my sleep schedule, which was disrupted by the middle school and college entrance exams! I expect that soon the update schedule and word count will return to their previous levels! (Leopard's confidence.jpg)

Chapter 435 Mi Sniper! The Strongest Shooter of the Law-Slaying Party: Nue! [4100]

A gleaming naginata and a stunningly beautiful face, strength and gentleness, violence and flowers... two completely different elements appear together, blending into a wondrous scene.

This person was very lucky to have the opportunity to witness such a rare and spectacular sight.

This man was very unfortunate; this scene was the last thing he saw before he died...

Pfft!

The naginata slices the human body open.

The severed limbs fell off, exposing the white bones.

At the same time, Souji, not far away, once again raised the "Scythe of Death".

The commander nimbly leaped onto a boulder, and then, as if gliding through the air, slashed down at the archer in front of him.

The slashes were fierce, the blade's momentum like a rainbow.

The opponent's left shoulder was deeply slashed, and his left arm, connected to his torso by only a thin layer of skin, hung idly at his side.

“呜呜啊啊啊！”

The intense pain caused the person's forehead to instantly become covered in large beads of cold sweat.

He was a tough guy; instead of falling, he gritted his teeth, steadied himself, endured the pain, and raised his knife to fight back.

"Go to hell!"

He was determined to "put himself in a desperate situation and then live, or be trapped in a hopeless situation and then survive," and he unleashed a decisive blow.

However, Souji disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"what?!"

"Here."

With astonishing explosive power, Souji flashed to the man's side and passed him by.

In the instant their sleeves met, Souji unleashed a sword-drawing strike, hitting his opponent squarely in the chest.

The person was thrown backward as if bounced away, and soon crashed to the ground.

This is the mistake made by the archers... or rather, by the entire Black Mother Cloaked Clan—they were so focused on dealing with Qing Deng that they completely ignored the existence of these two "Valkyries"!

Sanako, who possesses abundant resources, diligence, and talent, is a paragon of samurai. She is skilled in both martial arts and literature, and is well-versed in etiquette. She can be described as "possessing both divine might and refined elegance."

If she were a man, she would surely have become the renowned "Nanmu Tree".

[Note: Kusunoki refers to Kusunoki Masashige (1294? – July 4, 1336). He played a crucial role in overthrowing the Kamakura Shogunate and restoring the Kyoto court. Due to his outstanding military strategy, excellent character, and unwavering loyalty, he is regarded by later generations of Japanese as a model of loyalty and samurai.]

However, despite her perfect skills, Sanako had one shortcoming in martial arts: she hadn't really used real weapons much.

As for Souji... she has always presented herself as a simple-minded and not very bright person.

After all, she's the kind of person who can't even figure out what 77 plus 18 equals.

And like Sanako, she wields a bamboo sword far more often than a real sword.

Many people believe that the biggest drawback of "only knowing the 'dojo sword' and not the 'killing sword'" is that when they engage in a life-or-death duel with an enemy, they will involuntarily feel fear and thus be unable to unleash their full potential.

In fact, compared to cowardice and poor performance, "insufficient combat intelligence" is the most critical and terrible consequence of lacking practical combat experience.

In layman's terms, it means not being able to properly control "when to be cautious and defensive, and when to be aggressive and offensive".

However, as everyone knows, fate is unfair.

Some people are born to fight.

Perhaps this is a common trait among geniuses... Whether it's Souji or Sanako, they are both novices on the battlefield, yet they can transform into "human killers" without any psychological burden at this moment.

Seeing that Qing Deng had disrupted the Black Mother's formation with his aggressive charge and single-handedly defeated the opposing archers with his bow, the two women realized that a great opportunity had arrived!

There was no prior agreement, nor was there any discussion of combat plans.

Neither Souji nor Sanako knew that the other had the same idea as them.

Even so, they were still able to rush out of their hiding place at the same time, regardless of the order, and launch a new round of fierce attacks on the already chaotic enemy group!

Qing Deng's precise shots had already caused the Black Mother Clothes members a lot of headaches.

And now, he has the help of two women... Anyone with a bit of insight and common sense can see that the balance of the battle has shifted dramatically!

With things having come to this point, the burly man in command had no choice but to step forward and shout again:

"Damn it! Charge! Charge! Stop them! Whoever takes the heads of Onodera and his companions will be rewarded with one hundred taels of gold! Did you hear me? One hundred taels of gold! One hundred taels of gold! What are you waiting for? Charge!"
