Chapter 62 Listen to my explanation
"Of course I will give you time to adapt, as long as you meet my standards within seven days."
Kurosawa stared at the windswept pterosaur, which was as big as a small eagle, and pondered in his mind.
If the first assessment of the professional level is offensive ability, I can obviously pass it easily now.
Whether it's Mystery or Zeus, they can make him explode with offensive intensity that far exceeds that of a semi-professional level.
But when it comes to guard skills, they are not that stable.
One word can clearly summarize his current overall strength, strong in offense and weak in defense.
According to the instructor, he can only defend and cannot make counterattacks, so his advantages cannot be used.
"Does anyone want to try it first?"
The three of them looked at each other.
We don’t know the specific strength of the examiner’s Windgrabber or its attack method, so everyone is just trying to observe it first.
Kurosawa saw that the other two were hesitating, just when he wanted to step forward and volunteer.
Qin Huiyuan spoke.
"I'll go first."
She took a few steps forward and summoned her elf.
It's a little ground sloth that has awakened its attributes.
The little ground sloth came out of the flash card and looked around the field in confusion.
After receiving Qin Huiyuan's spiritual instructions, it turned into three grass shields that were emitting green light and constantly rotating, suspended on her body surface.
Kurosawa and Fan Yong distanced themselves and watched the assessment quietly.
"Be careful," the bald examiner began.
After he finished speaking, the Windgrabber on his shoulder suddenly disappeared, as if melting into the air.
Qin Huiyuan looked around cautiously.
The air moved.
Countless breezes blew by.
The fallen leaves in the open space were rustled by the wind.
She moved slowly and uneasily.
Another gust of wind blew.
In an instant, a green light condensed from the blind spot behind her.
The wind attribute energy suddenly erupted, like a poisonous snake that was hiding in the grass and preying on people, suddenly ejected.
"Click!"
A grass attribute shield exploded.
However, before Qin Huiyuan could breathe a sigh of relief.
Her sleeve suddenly tore.
It’s the second attack that follows!
"The assessment failed." The examiner Sheng Ziming said calmly.
"You must always remain vigilant in battle and evolve your guarding skills into an instinct."
"Even if you don't think about it, you can still resist the attack."
"In these days, I and other examiners will conduct devil training on you, trying to let you and the guardian elves master this defensive instinct."
"You have to grit your teeth and hold on!"
Fan Yong also stepped forward to try.
Not surprisingly, his rock shield also failed.
The power of the examiner's wind-skimming pterosaur's attack burst was not particularly strong in Kurosawa's perception.
It's stronger than Shining's normal electric shock attack, but not as good as Mystery, let alone Zeus mode.
However, its wind-type attacks have excellent concealment, making it difficult to defend even if you are prepared.
It’s no wonder that the Stormtrooper is also considered by many people on the Internet to be an extremely good assassin.
Kurosawa summed up his experience and stepped forward to accept the test.
The little Shining transformed into a coat of thunder and lightning, wrapping him tightly.
[Thunder Clothes] is an excellent defensive skill with a wide range of protection.
But comprehensive protection also means a lack of overall defensive strength.
After all, the protective area must be extended to every corner of the body.
If you want to resist an attack with a certain intensity, you need to concentrate the lightning attribute energy in a certain area to enhance the local defense.
That is the difference between comprehensive shallow protection and partial deep protection.
Kurosawa thought he was mentally prepared and would perform well.
But he only withstood two attacks, and the third attack hit his body.
Fortunately, the control of the Wind Sweeper Pterosaur was pretty good, it only penetrated his superficial protection and did not hurt his body.
"Not bad, your skills are quite proficient, but you need to turn your defensive awareness into a stress instinct."
Although Kurosawa was a little dissatisfied, the examiner showed appreciation.
Sheng Ziming had watched Kurosawa's games and knew that he showed great talent in offense, but he did not expect that he was so skilled in the use of defensive skills.
It's really rare.
Especially since the intensity of his attack on Kurosawa was higher than that of the other two, Kurosawa was the one who persisted the longest.
The reason for this is because of Minister Haitang’s instructions.
Minister Gong hoped that he would be more "responsible" when conducting Kurosawa's first assessment.
Normally, they, the examiners, would be lax when assessing guarding skills.
Candidates have not been learning guardianship skills for long. They are only at the quasi-professional level and will still have time to improve in the future.
The professional level is the backbone of the alliance. As long as the standards are met, the number of candidates who pass the professional level assessment is expected to increase.
The department he belongs to is under the direct jurisdiction of the headquarters, and theoretically does not need to pay attention to the branch's orders, but after all, it is the request of the branch leader, and they are on someone else's territory, so they must give some face.
So he agreed to Minister Haitang's small request.
Anyway, it's definitely not a bad thing for Kurosawa.
In a sense, defensive skills are more important than offensive skills.
If the attack is frustrated, there is still an opportunity to organize the next attack. If there are omissions in the defense...
...
Noon the next day.
Kurosawa's body was covered with a coat of lightning, and arcs of electricity were constantly dancing on the surface.
The ink-colored attribute energy quietly condensed beside him, and it turned into a wind blade and slashed out in an instant.
"Crack!"
Dark blue thunder attribute energy instantly condenses where the wind blade strikes.
The cyan energy of the wind blade collided with the deep protection of thunder attribute and suddenly exploded, turning into countless cyan particles and dissipating in the air.
The wind chopped countless fallen leaves into pieces.
The surroundings returned to calm.
Kurosawa and Sheng Ziming looked at each other.
Sheng Ziming looked at Kurosawa opposite and cast a confused look, as if he was wondering why he didn't attack again for a long time.
He couldn't help but want to reach out and wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"It has been seven times. Congratulations on passing the first assessment!"
He swallowed and then said.
"It seems like only six times." Kurosawa asked in confusion.
"No, it's really been seven times." This was the third time Sheng Ziming answered like this, feeling like crying but without tears.
He really didn't understand what was going on in Kurosawa's mind.
The other candidates all wanted to pass the test as soon as possible, but he was the only one who looked like he was addicted.
Since yesterday afternoon, he has been being pulled by his opponent for training. He only wakes up after going to bed, and continues training non-stop early in the morning.
The other person seemed not to be tired at all.
But he hasn’t had lunch yet! He’s really tired...
The examiner colleagues who were responsible for the training of the other two candidates could not work as hard as he did.
If it's really normal training, then that's it.
But the other party has clearly exceeded the standard and still won’t give up?
The standard requirement of seven times is not an arbitrary number, but because the combo attack of the Wind Skitter Pterosaur can only be maintained for a maximum of seven times.
There is a rhythm gap between the next round of attacks.
In other words, if it can be defended seven times, as long as the attribute energy is sufficient, it can be defended fourteen times, twenty-one times or even more.
Coupled with the fact that he didn't let go, this Wind-skimming Pterosaur is now completely helpless against the opponent in a frontal battle.
Although the frontal combat capability of the Skittering Pterosaur is average, and it is only a relatively weak one in its lineup, reaching this level is obviously far beyond the normal standard.
After all, Kurosawa only defends but does not attack.
"But... I feel that my guarding skills haven't been fully developed yet, and there is still room for improvement..."
The examiner Sheng Ziming turned around and left, no longer wanting to pay attention to him.
"Come to me in the afternoon and we will conduct the second item, which is also the practical part of the ability test."
Seeing the examiner running away quickly, Kurosawa sighed.
I feel a little sorry.
It's hard to find such a free training partner who can help him practice his skills regardless of cost.
So he knew that he had passed the assessment standard 7 times, but he still wanted to pass the test by pretending to be stupid.
Pity......
If I had known, I would have relaxed my defense in the 6th time.
No...but that won't work either. After all, the goal is to cultivate instincts. If you deliberately relax, it will be harmful to the training of skills.
【Thunder Clothes】lv2(1/10)
Perhaps because he had mastered the defensive instinct mentioned by the examiner, his Lei Yi was successfully upgraded from lv1 (4/5) to level 2.
"Nutritional value: 96→93"
"The energy value of Shining Bird: 9.63 → 9.79"
The consumption of nutritional value is also the basis for him to maintain continuous training.
After the training, Kurosawa went to the canteen of the training base to have a meal.
After finishing the meal, Qin Fan and I sat at the same table.
There are many other staff members eating in the canteen.
Sheng Ziming, who was sitting not far away, probably didn't notice Kurosawa and was complaining to several other colleagues.
The voice vaguely reached the dining table where Kurosawa was sitting, words such as "He is like a pervert", "I was pulled up by him when I was sleeping", "I can't stand it", "torture" and other words.
He looked at the strange looks cast by Qin Huiyuan and Fan Yong who were sitting next to him.
Kurosawa was a little panicked.
Chapter completed!
