Chapter 13 Lijiazhai, Too Domineering
Zhang was startled, and then looked at him with surprised eyes, “You mean, you want to use that sixty-pound bow?”
After speaking, a strange look appeared on his face.
If his memory was fine, didn’t this kid try it day before yesterday? It took a long time, but he couldn’t pull it off.
Chen Fan nodded and said seriously, “Uncle Zhang, after these two days of practice, I feel that I might be able to draw that bow now.”
Two days ago, his strength attribute was less than 8 points, and he could barely draw a 40-pound bow. Two days later, his strength attribute was close to 12 points, and he could probably draw an 80-pound bow without much problem.
But this was too scary, and if he really needed to use an 80-pound bow, he would probably be exhausted after a few times. Sixty pounds is just right.
Zhang was dubious, but he nodded and said, “Then come with me.”
Chen Fan smiled and followed.
“He wants to use a sixty-pound bow?”
The dialogue between the two also reached the ears of Wang Ping and the others, causing a lot of discussion.
“Sixty pounds, the difficulty increases by half. Can Chen Fan really do it?”
“Zhao Feng, haven’t you pulled a 60-pound bow? How does it feel?” The eyes of several people fell on that tall figure.
Zhao Feng’s voice was bitter, “The first few times were okay, but later, I had to rest for more than ten minutes before I could pull it again. After that, it took more than half an hour…”
“It’s too difficult.” He shook his head.
“Since Brother Fan said so, he should be sure, right?” Wang Ping said.
“Should be.”
“I hope he can do it. I heard that if you can use a sixty-pound bow, you can shoot even some not-so-powerful mid-level beasts.”
The eyes of several people showed hope.
In the warehouse, Chen Fan took down the sixty-pound bow and held the bow. It was heavy, and the bowstrings were thicker. At first glance, it made people feel it was strenuous.
“Try it.”
Zhang glanced at him, not having any expectations. He just felt that this kid was a little overconfident and needed a dose of reality.
“Um.”
Chen Fan was a little excited, picked up an arrow, put it on the string, held the bow with his left hand in front of him, pinched the bowstring with his right hand fingers, and pulled it back a little bit.
The lame man went from being indifferent to being shocked, and finally opened his mouth wide, showing a look of shock.
Pull, he pulled it? This kid really pulled it?
Am I dreaming?
“Feels pretty good.”
Chen Fan smiled, let go of his fingers, and the arrow shot out.
“Uncle Zhang, just take this bow.” He raised his head, looked at him, and said.
“Ahem.”
Zhang showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said, “You can pull it away, this bow has a lethality of about 50 meters, which is similar to the previous bow’s 30 meters. If it’s 30 meters, it’s more powerful. It should be enough to shoot ordinary low-level ferocious beasts.”
“Fifty meters?”
Chen Fan nodded, but to ensure the effect, the distance was still a bit far.
He raised his head, and his eyes fell on the remaining bows, especially the last one. This three-hundred-pound bow, he wondered when he would be able to draw it?
But he believes that that day will not be too far away.
“This kid.”
Zhang on the side had a full view of his actions.
“He’s quite ambitious, but judging from his performance in the past two days, maybe it’s really possible?”
Hanging the 40-pound bow on the wall again, the two walked out of the warehouse one after the other.
“Are you ready?”
Zhang stood in his old position, looking at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan nodded and licked his lips subconsciously. He also wanted to see if his skill proficiency would increase after switching to a longbow that required more strength.
As the target was thrown into the air, that familiar feeling came to his heart again.
“Whoosh!”
The moment the sound of piercing the sky sounded, the arrow fiercely hit the bull’s-eye. The target was hit hard, retreating several meters in the air before slowly falling to the ground.
“Good boy.”
Zhang looked on, amazed in his heart.
This arrow, if shot at a human body, would definitely kill. Even if it was some armored mid-level ferocious beast, it could still pierce it and cause wounds, right?
Chen Fan hurriedly looked at the system panel, and the smile on his face became even wider when he saw it.
[Basic archery: lv3 (4%)…]
In other words, the arrow just now directly increased the proficiency by 3%!
In this way, it is more likely to improve [Basic Archery] from LV3 to LV4 before departure tomorrow.
For a moment, he wanted to use that eighty-pound longbow, but considering the principle of sustainable development, he canceled the plan.
The next process is naturally to repeat this process.
When Zhang was tired, he changed to Wang Ping. When Wang Ping was tired, he changed to Zhao Feng. When Zhao Feng was also tired and the sky darkened, there was a movement at the entrance of the camp not far away, but after a while, the movement got smaller, and the people in the village, in twos and threes, walked back.
Obviously, the hunting team did not catch any prey today.
In the open space, the moods of the few people suddenly became heavy.
This is only one day, it doesn’t matter, but if there is no prey in the next few days…
Wang Ping and the others looked at each other, not daring to think about it anymore, but they all knew that this possibility was probably the greatest.
“Okay, it’s getting late, you guys go back.”
Zhang looked at Chen Fan and asked, “Continue tonight?”
“Continue.”
Chen Fan nodded without thinking.
It is much more difficult to hit a moving target at night than during the day, but there is no other way.
The lame man nodded, indicating that he understood.
Wang Ping and the others looked at each other.
“Shall we come at night too?”
Zhao Feng spoke first.
“Yeah, let’s practice knives too, and by the way, help Chen Fan too.”
Chen Fan felt a surge of emotion in his heart, he didn’t refuse, but said gratefully, “Then thank you for your hard work.”
Several people smiled, and some of them were already thinking about whether to go out with the hunting team.
Everyone parted for a short while, and Chen Fan walked towards home, smelling the aroma of meat from a distance, and hearing his mother’s complaints.
“The people in Lijiazhai are not very reasonable. They are obviously the prey that fell into our trap. Why do they take it away as soon as they saw it, and don’t leave us a piece of meat?”
“They are too domineering! How can there be such a group?”
“They are just bullying our village because we have few people. When the Wei brothers were here, why didn’t
they see them being so overbearing?”
“Okay, it’s already happened. It’s useless to talk about it now,” Chen Guodong’s deep voice sounded, very weak.
