Chapter 11: Berserk Slaughter



Chapter 11: Berserk Slaughter

After breakfast, the three youths were gathered in the square. Several rows of shelves had already been erected on the plaza, and all sorts of weapons were hanging on them. From daggers and heavy swords to pistols and bazookas, from cold weapons to hot weapons, everything could be said to be dazzling.

Second Lieutenant Ron put his legs together and put his hands behind his back. A simple military posture made him stand out and be exceptionally domineering. He grinned, revealing a row of white teeth that frightened the youth, "I have to congratulate you, at least two of you three will still be alive for sixty days." So let's not waste any more time. Starting today, new courses will be added. The first is fighting, I will teach you the art of killing; "The other is Origin Energy training. If you can condense more Origin Energy and form more Origin Energy vortexes, then the more chances you have to leave the camp."

The youths looked at each other.

Maho and Alan didn't have to say anything. Their gazes almost burned in the air. It was Merry, the last girl to ignite the fire seed. Her eyes flashed and she did not dare to look at the two boys.

"Alright, I'll give you a fighting lesson today. Before class, you can choose whatever you like from the weapons racks." Ron backed away, letting all the weapons stand in front of the three youths.

Alan had never seen so many weapons before, and he suddenly felt dazzled. The black teenager raised his hand and asked Ron, "Second Lieutenant, I want your advice."

Ron said in a deep voice, "My advice is that you should be faithful to your own voice. Use your instincts to choose the weapons you choose. These weapons often represent your talent in a certain field."

As the second lieutenant spoke, Allen had already walked towards the cold weapon area. In the end, he chose a black steel broadsword that was almost taller than the others. The broadsaber blade was square, with a total length of 150 cm, and the handle alone reached 30 cm. It can be held either single or double. The width of the blade is 25CM, the thickness is 3CM, but the net weight is only 50KG.

Judging from the length and thickness of the blade, it was impossible for it to weigh so little. Obviously, this blade had undergone some special processing. The long hilt of the broadsaber was painted dark red, which was in sharp contrast to the pitch black surface of the broadsaber. On the steel surface of the pitch-black blade, there were dark lines on both sides of the blade edges. It was unknown whether it was decoration or other functions.

50KG was not light for a 10-year-old child, but after igniting the fire seed, Allen was already a First Grade Origin Energy Cultivator. According to the Origin Energy Manual, every level of advancement was equivalent to doubling one's Physique Strength. Therefore, Ellen could still lift this little weight.

The reason Alan chose it was because he saw a faint soft light on the broadsword. That layer of brilliance was like a candle flame in the wind, as if it could be extinguished at any moment. Even though it was weak, it was the only weapon among these weapons that emitted a gentle light of Origin Energy.

Following that, Maho and Merry also chose their own weapons.

The black teenager picked out a sniper rifle. He seemed to have a passion for the rifle, and he had always loved it ever since he took it off the rack. Merry picked out a pair of automatic pistols, but judging from the young girl's appearance, she seemed to have chosen them casually.

Seeing that the three youths had all chosen their weapons, Ron waved his hand. Several teams of soldiers quickly put away their weapons racks and carried them away. The second lieutenant walked between Mayo and Merry and said, "You're smart. Although firearms, especially gunpowder firearms, could only play a limited role in high-level battles. However, in the early stages, especially in the death arena, firearms still had an irreplaceable advantage. "For example, this sniper rifle in Maho's hand can shoot at a distance of 1,200 meters. With his excellent shooting skills and surroundings, Maho can completely kill you two."

Hearing the second lieutenant's comment on him, Ma Ao was quite pleased. He looked at Alan with a demonstrative tone.

"As for you" The second lieutenant walked over to Ellen and said, "You're stupid. You picked an inappropriate weapon. But at the same time, you have good taste."

At this point, Ron walked back to where he was and did not explain Alan's so-called vision. He called two instructors and said to Maho, "Follow the instructors. They will teach you some basic shooting skills."

"White-haired brat, come with me." Ron said to Alan, "I'm probably the only one who can teach you how to use this weapon."

Alan brought Ron to the air defense hall where the fire had been ignited. Seeing that Ron had personally closed the green steel door, Alan didn't understand why the second lieutenant had to be so cautious. He didn't seem to want the next lesson to enter the eyes of a third person. After closing the door, Ron walked back and waved to Allen, asking him to hand over the broadsword.

After Ellen received the broadsword, Ron gently stroked the cold blade with his finger and said, "What a surprise. I was going to use this big fellow as a textbook for you guys, but I didn't expect you to pick it out. Hey, Konov, if you want to know that his stuff is for a kid to use, maybe he'll jump out of the grave in anger "

Ron stabbed the broadsword into the ground in the hall and said, "Listen, kid, this saber belongs to one of my former comrades. Since you picked it, then it belongs to you. Konov calls it Berserker because he once killed a predator with one man and one blade!"

Alan's pupils dilated slightly, and the speed of the vortex of Origin Energy in his body quietly increased. In an instant, he completely liked this blade called Berserk Slaughter because it had once drank the blood of the predators!

"Hehe, don't be so excited, okay?" Ron looked at Ellen with interest. "You're a skinny boy, and you're very bellicose in your bones. Very well, fighting intent is a good thing. But right now, you can't use the power of a massacre. You can only use it as an ordinary cold weapon. Do you know why? Because it has a more official name, a Mana Saber!"

"Magic Saber?" Alan was confused.

"The so-called magic power is because there is a miniature Magic Cube sequence inside it. Yes, it can be powered by new sources of energy. When you activate this sequence, Berserker will release another half-meter of energy blade. If used in combat, an additional half-meter of slash range will increase your attack efficiency by around 40%. Moreover, this blade is invincible! "

Alan listened eagerly.

Ron was very satisfied with his performance, but what he said next was like a bucket of cold water pouring down his head.

"But don't forget. There's a prefix in its official name, file one! The so-called first stage, according to the designers, was the strength of the origin power needed to construct a genetic circuit. In other words, only by activating at least one gene loop would one be qualified to use Berserk Slaughter. Since there was a first gear, then there would be a second gear, a third gear, their restrictions and so on. A magical weapon like this has a maximum of twenty grades according to its current classification. "

Seeing Allen's previously excited little face turn gloomy, Ron was in a good mood. "Magic weapons were developed after the Federation was established. Applying Magic Cube energy technology to portable weapons has greatly increased the combat strength of the human army. Take the sniper rifle for example. The one in Maho's hand could shoot a kilometer away. If he switched to a first-gear Magic Sniper Spear, the distance would double, and the power would explode a person's body. If it was a magic sniper spear above the tenth rank, the shooting range would reach an exaggerated 5,000 meters. A single spear could shoot down a magic energy ship that did not activate its energy shield.

"You don't have to be discouraged. Once you condense nine vortexes of Origin Energy and construct a genetic circuit, you can use the true power of Berserk Slaughter." The second lieutenant pulled out his broadsword and tossed it to Alan, "Before you can activate Berserker's Magic Cube, I'll teach you some basic fighting skills. Combined with Berserker's sharpness and weight, fighting against those two little ghosts is enough."

After Ron finished speaking, he looked at the broadsword and said, "Berserk Slaughter is a square saber. There is no such thing as a saber tip. So the stab is definitely inappropriate. Then it's the only one left, Crescent Moon."

"Crescent moon?" '"Is this a fighting technique?" Alan asked doubtfully.

'"That's right. A crescent moon is a leg fighting technique. With the center axis of the waist and heel perpendicular to each other, a powerful leg sweep can theoretically be made from any angle while maintaining balance. Because the sweep trajectory is like a crescent moon, this is why it is named." At this point, Second Lieutenant Ron said with a serious expression, "Crescent Moon, Thorn, and several other fighting techniques, we call them ten dozen." After the Battle of Dawn, ten dozen was a battle skill formed after summing up the experiences of countless predecessors and refining their fighting moves. "Ten dozen is regarded as the soul of all battle techniques. Even those famous figures have managed to form their own exclusive battle techniques by fusing their own engraving abilities on the basis of ten dozen."

Next, Second Lieutenant Ron showed Alan the crescent moon leg technique. He found a metal puppet and kept it at a suitable distance. Second Lieutenant Ron kicked on the ground and his other leg instantly swept past the puppet in a shrill howl. The puppet's head immediately flew up and fell to the ground. The whole set of movements was incomparably simple, and there was nothing unnecessary. It only highlighted the three elements of speed, accuracy, and fatality.

"This is a single crescent moon. Next, this is a combination of multiple crescent moons " Second Lieutenant Ron swiftly swept his leg as before, sweeping through the iron doll's body at the same time. He quickly changed the supporting nodes, his legs alternately sweeping out, forming a storm-like attack.

Alan was dumbstruck as he disassembled Ron's movements into a simple sweep of his leg. However, it was combined into a complicated offensive from the angle of his attack. When Ron swept his last leg, the Iron Puppet fell apart. If it was a human, Ron's bones would have been broken under this attack.

Repeated movements, different angles, and a state of balance at all times. This was the crescent moon technique that Ron wanted to demonstrate.
