Chapter 2: Xiaguo Gun Devil Chapter 33: Speed of Attack
Many people in the stands took out their notebooks and took notes while listening, and also chose to record videos.
"As people evolve, their maximum nerve reaction time will become shorter and shorter," Xu Jingming said. "Before practicing the evolutionary method, the maximum nerve reaction time of humans was only 0.1 seconds! Only those who have undergone special training can approach this limit. For ordinary people, it may be 0.2 seconds to 0.5 seconds."
"After practicing the Evolution Method, my nerve reaction speed has become faster."
"Practicing the intermediate evolution method, the nerve reaction limit is about 0.02 seconds."
"When practicing high-level evolutionary methods, the nerve reaction limit is about 0.01 seconds." Xu Jingming smiled, "Of course, as for the super-level evolutionary method, it is a bit special, and there is no accurate data for the time being."
Xu Jingming tapped lightly, and a scene appeared on the side where an archer secretly shot an arrow and killed his opponent.
"I believe you can see archers killing their opponents in many battles," Xu Jingming said. "They usually attack from the dark, which is the most efficient. Why? Because when you shoot from the dark, by the time you notice the arrow, it is too close to you and the arrow is too fast... It is likely that you won't be able to react within the maximum time limit."
"Even if you can barely react quickly, it still takes time for you to use a weapon," Xu Jingming said. "You may just swing the weapon when the arrow has already pierced your throat."
"If you shoot an arrow head-on," Xu Jingming said, "even if the arrow is over 1,000 meters per second, it will take about 0.2 seconds for the arrow to fly through the sky at a distance of 200 to 300 meters. As long as you concentrate and practice the evolution method, you can usually dodge it."
"If the archer attacks by surprise, he can easily kill with one arrow."
Xu Jingming said, "By the same token, if you use any weapon, such as a knife, a gun, a stick, or a club, and the time it takes to attack is equal to the opponent's nerve reaction time, you can also kill with one move."
"One move to kill?"
Countless people listened carefully.
"Please look at the various moves." Xu Jingming nodded lightly.
There were boxer-like movements of jabs, swings, and hooks.
The action of a warrior swinging a huge axe appears.
There were swordsman's stabbing and chopping movements.
"This first video is a video of a boxing champion's match many years ago. Evolution had not yet appeared at that time." Xu Jingming said, "You can see that the boxing champion's swing and hook are very powerful, but the build-up time is very long. The opponent has already dodged before the punch is halfway through."
"On the contrary, the jab! This boxing champion is also an expert in the jab. The jab has a short build-up time and is delivered quickly! The opponent must keep their distance, otherwise, within the range of a punch, a punch can be delivered in 0.1 seconds, and the opponent will not have time to dodge."
"At that time, no matter how powerful any boxing champion was, if he didn't keep his distance from the top jabs, he would definitely be hit. Of course, the jab was also less powerful," Xu Jingming said. "Keeping the distance... meant that the opponent had to take a step in order to hit him! Taking this step would take more than 0.1 seconds. The opponent could also dodge calmly again."
"Distance is the content of the next lesson 'Footwork'." Xu Jingming said with a smile, "If the jab in boxing is a little weak, then the result will be different if you use weapons."
"Please look at this swordsman." Xu Jingming pointed to another video.
"The swordsman thrusts with a sword, which is similar to a jab, with a strong force, as fast as lightning." Xu Jingming said, "The sword is extremely sharp, and once it pierces the head, throat or other vital parts! Even if the force is weaker, it is enough to kill the opponent."
"So when facing a top swordsman, you must keep your distance." Xu Jingming said, "Once you let the swordsman draw his sword instantly! You often don't have time to react."
"Of course, although the sword is fast, it must be within striking distance to kill the opponent instantly. Once it encounters a long weapon...it is difficult for the swordsman to touch the enemy, but the enemy can hurt it." Xu Jingming said.
"Look at this last video again." Xu Jingming pointed at the master wielding the axe. "The axe is heavy and the swing is swift, but the build-up time is relatively long. Normally, the opponent has enough time to react."
Xu Jingming smiled and said, "So if you want to attack, you have to make it shorter than the maximum reaction time of your nerves! This is only suitable for some weapons, such as swords, spears, halberds, and lances that can be used for stabbing, etc."
"Now we are conducting a real-life drill. "
Xu Jingming stretched out his hand and a sword appeared in his hand. "I am not familiar with swordsmanship, but I know the most basic sword moves. Now I will get a few sparring partners, all of whom have a basic combat power of 10,000."
Said softly.
In the martial arts training ground, five masters with different appearances appeared. Some carried swords on their backs, some wore knives at their waists, and some held long whips.
"For us humans, the basic combat power of a normal level 3 ultimate master is around 7,000." Xu Jingming said, "The data of these virtual sparring partners I set up are generally slightly stronger than that of a level 3 ultimate master."
"A sparring partner with a basic combat power of 10,000?"
"My basic combat power is only 500. This is too outrageous."
"These sparring partners may be stronger than many of the masters on the third level of the Starry Sky Ranking."
The audience was stunned.
After all, the basic combat power of the third-level extreme masters is generally not that strong. For example, most of those who have just passed the third floor of the Starry Sky Tower are only in the middle of the third level.
"Training partner?" Fang Yu had mixed feelings in the stands.
To this day, he is still stuck at the third level limit.
"My evolution method's compatibility is 103%, and now my basic combat power is only 9300." Fang Yu felt very uncomfortable. His basic combat power was enough to look down on other third-level masters.
But Xu Jingming randomly found some sparring partners, all of whom had a basic combat power of 10,000, which meant that they surpassed Fang Yu in all aspects of physical fitness.
…
"The neural reaction limit of these virtual opponents is about 0.01 seconds," Xu Jingming said. "It also takes them some time to use weapons, so normally, if I can keep my moves within 0.015 seconds, it will be difficult for them to resist."
"Come on, the first one." Xu Jingming looked at the virtual master in front of him.
The virtual master drew his sword and rushed over quickly.
Xu Jingming held the sword in one hand, and when the opponent rushed close to him, his figure flashed, and at the same time, the sword flashed out like lightning. Swoosh! It had already pierced through the throat of the virtual master.
When the virtual master was pierced, he kept swinging his sword and had no time to resist or react.
The virtual master turned into an illusion and disappeared.
"A master with a basic combat power of 10,000 was killed by just one sword?"
“It feels like killing a chicken.”
"Is the gap so outrageous?"
Countless viewers were stunned.
"Look carefully at the sword strike just now." Xu Jingming clicked to slow down the action of the fight just now. "The virtual opponent rushed over, and I didn't make any moves. When he got close, I dodged and stabbed the sword! It took a total of 0.006 seconds from the time I raised my hand to the time I thrust it out, piercing the enemy's throat. Well, my sword strike was a bit fast. In fact, if the speed was twice as slow, 0.012 seconds... the opponent would not have had time to resist."
After watching the video, Xu Jingming felt that he was still too quick in his moves.
After all, practicing the Rainbow Spear Technique has made me accustomed to making quick moves.
"Fuck, from the moment I started to pierce the enemy's throat with my sword, 0.006 seconds?"
"Twice as slow, but still able to kill an opponent with a basic combat power of 10,000 in one second???"
The audience was just stunned.
"You should have noticed that I used the most basic stabbing action." Xu Jingming smiled, "Weapons are just extensions of the body, there is nothing complicated about them. Just like I don't practice swordplay much, but I practice jabbing, whether it's boxing or various martial arts schools. Just hold the sword in your hand and stab forward."
"A stab, as fast as lightning, extremely swift." Xu Jingming said, "Grasp the timing well, practice more, and you will also be able to strike within the opponent's nerve reaction limit. Of course, 'grasping the timing' is more difficult, and requires footwork and control of time, which will also be included in subsequent courses."
"Okay, next opponent." Xu Jingming nodded lightly.
Another swordsman came up, wielding a one-handed sword, the blade flashing fiercely.
Xu Jingming made a step forward and closed the distance of a sword with his opponent in advance. At the moment of progress! He drew his sword at the same time, and tapped the enemy's forehead. The swordsman showed surprise in his eyes and reacted, but he didn't have time to swing his sword. The tip of the sword touched his forehead.
The swordsman also turned into nothingness and disappeared.
"I slowed down my movements a bit ," Xu Jingming said, and began to replay the fight video in slow motion.
"Please look."
"If we extend our palms and tap the opponent, the power is not great, but holding a sword... a quick tap is a very deadly sword technique." Xu Jingming said, "To tap the sword, just stretch out your forearm and tap it lightly! From the start to the sword tip hitting the enemy's forehead, it takes 0.011 seconds. It is indeed much slower than before, but an opponent with a basic combat power of 10,000 still has no time to react and resist."
"Have you discovered?" Xu Jingming said, "Choose a light weapon and make your attack fast enough. Once you seize the opportunity, the enemy will have nowhere to hide."
"So that's how it is?"
"One move to kill, is it that simple?"
"Choose a suitable weapon, practice making your moves as fast as possible, and kill with one move within the limits of your nerve reaction?"
“This is a one-shot kill.”
It is much easier to understand the battle once countless viewers understand the principles of the battle.
"Although swords and knives can attack very quickly," Xu Jingming said, "their attack range is short, and they can be easily suppressed by longer weapons! At this time, you need to use footwork to make up for it. Therefore, the strength of pure swordsmen and swordsmen...most of their strength depends on footwork. They use footwork to avoid attacks from others and find the right time to attack."
"Once the distance is shortened to the point where I can kill with one sword, I will strike with the sword instantly." Xu Jingming said, "One sword will kill, there is no escape."
"Of course, I would recommend that you practice your marksmanship."
Xu Jingming smiled and said, "The spear is a little harder to practice, but it is just as good at stabbing and can attack very quickly. Moreover, it is longer and has a wider attack range."
"Regarding gun skills, I will also upload detailed gun skills courses to the martial arts hall." Xu Jingming said with a smile, "In fact, everyone also understands that whether it is sword skills, knife skills, or gun skills, they are just extensions of the body. Let you attack at a longer distance and cause greater damage."
"With ordinary points and stabs, if you are bare-handed, the threat can be ignored. But with weapons in hand, it can be fatal," said Xu Jingming.
