Chapter 12: Maybe it's time for a bow.

Chapter 12 Perhaps, it is time to change a bow

After the lame man promised to let him rest for an extra hour later, the short-haired young man ran over.

"Hello, Brother Fan."

He had a smile on his face, nodded and bowed his head, looking very obsequious.

Chen Fan was a little embarrassed by the other party's enthusiasm, and both parties were about the same age, so he quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't be so polite, just call me Chen Fan, right, what's your name?"

"Wang Ping, the king who is called king, the Ping of the plain."

Wang Ping chuckled.

"Stop smirking, start now."

The crippled man said unhappily, "You saw what I did just now, just do it."

"Yes, Uncle Zhang, don't worry, everything is on me."

"Trouble."

Chen Fan said gratefully, after all, it took up other people's time and energy.

But if he didn't do this, his proficiency in basic archery would slow down a lot. At such a critical moment, every minute and every second is especially precious.

"I can only wait until I have mastered the basic archery skills and go out to hunt the prey, and then I will be grateful to him."

He said to himself secretly in his heart.

"it's okay no problem."

Wang Ping smiled and said, "Brother Fan, you are the son of Uncle Guodong. If Uncle Guodong hadn't taken us in at the beginning, we would have been killed by ferocious beasts outside. How could we have survived to this day? This is a small matter. Busy, it’s nothing, cough cough..."

It seemed that he noticed that he was talking too much nonsense, so he hurriedly stopped, picked up the archery target, and stood where the crippled man was before, "Brother Fan, I'm about to start."

Chen Fan took a deep breath, nodded, and entered the state.

The cooperation between the two was very unfamiliar at the beginning, but it became much better later on, and the proficiency of [Basic Archery] was steadily increasing.

Almost an hour passed.

"Wang Ping, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Fan saw that the opponent was throwing the target with great effort, and slowly lowered the hand holding the bow and arrow, thanking him.

"Brother Fan, I'm really sorry."

Wang Ping smiled wryly, he couldn't hold on any longer, his arms seemed to be filled with lead.

Seeing this, the lame man was also ready to take over. Although his arms had recovered a bit, it was hard to say whether he could hold on for an hour.

"Let me do it."

At this moment, the young man who was sitting and resting stood up. He was tall, at least 1.8 meters tall, but very thin, like skin and bones.

Several people were startled.

The same is true for the lame man. He looked at the tall young man and said, "Zhao Feng, your marksmanship is the most well-trained among the few. Time and energy are limited, so you should continue to practice your marksmanship."

Wang Ping wanted to cry but had no tears, so he was called here because his marksmanship was average?

"Uncle Zhang, it's okay, just take it as a rest."

Zhao Feng showed a smile, then looked at Chen Fan, and said, "Wang Ping is right, because of Uncle Guodong, my mother and I can live here."

When the lame man heard the words, he didn't stop him, and nodded slightly.

Just like that, another two or three hours passed.

During the period, apart from the lame man, Wang Ping, and Zhao Feng, there were also one or two young people who came over to help.

On the one hand, it was to repay Chen Guodong for taking care of him for so long. On the other hand, they could also see that Chen Fan was really talented in practicing arrows.

The departure of the Wei family brothers has greatly reduced the strength of the village. It is necessary to cultivate a person who can shoot arrows as soon as possible. As for people who use guns, there is really no shortage of one or two.

During this period, Chen Fan also summed up some rules.

It is also aiming at a moving target. The faster the target moves, the more proficiency it will increase after being hit by an arrow, which can reach 3%. Of course, if it is too fast, he will not be able to hit it at all.

In the same way, if it is too slow, it will be close to a fixed target, and the proficiency will not increase much after hitting it.

"Phew!"

The arrow cut through the air and hit again.

Suddenly, Chen Fan felt a warm current surge all over his body in an instant, and more than half of the previous fatigue disappeared.

"Is the basic archery upgraded?"

He was pleasantly surprised, and at the same time, a strange feeling came to his heart.

"coming!"

The lame man gave a loud shout and threw the arrow target again.

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes. This time, he felt that the archery target not far away was moving in a parabola, just like the slow motion in a movie, the speed was more than twice as slow.

"How is this going?"

In his heart, he was puzzled, but the movements of his hands were not slow, or in other words, it was simply muscle memory, fully drawing the bowstring, and shooting the arrow.

"Boom!"

There was a soft sound, and the arrow hit the bull's-eye impartially.

"pretty!"

The lame man couldn't help applauding such a crisp arrow.

Afterwards, he seemed to come to his senses, put away his smile, and said with a cold snort, "Maybe you got lucky this time, a blind cat meets a dead mouse."

Chen Fan chuckled.

At this time, he has seen that [Basic Archery] has indeed been upgraded, and the fourth feature has also been unlocked.

Level: 3 (0/4)

Physique: 12.78

Strength: 11.57

【Basic archery: lv3 (1%), characteristics: physical strength level 3, arm strength level 3, slow shooting level 3, riding level 1】

【Mounting Shooting: For each level up, when aiming at a moving target, the hit rate will increase by 30%】

"No wonder."

He suddenly realized, no wonder he felt that the speed of the previous arrow target fell to the ground much slower, it turned out to be the credit of this riding and shooting feature!

Not only that, the first three characteristics, as he expected, have all reached the third level, especially the slow fire characteristic, aiming at immobile objects, the hit rate is as high as 90%, close to 100%.

"This strength should be enough for me to go hunting, right?"

He thought to himself, indeed, if the [Basic Archery] can be raised to lv5, the riding and shooting characteristics can reach level 3, and the hit rate is 90%, so the confidence is the greatest.

But he also noticed that even though the arrow just hit the bullseye, it only increased the proficiency by 1%. You have to hit the target a hundred times in a moving state to improve to lv4, and it will be more difficult from lv4 to lv5. Two days, at least two days.

Not so much time!

On the second day after traveling through time, the scene of three people dying in the village is still vivid in my mind. If it is delayed for another day, maybe one more person will die in the hunting team. Who knows, could it be his father?

Besides, he also needs enough beast meat to convert into potential points to strengthen his body.

Although it is risky, but if you want to live, how can you not take risks? Just like the adult men in the village, their physical fitness is not much better than him, so why don't they go hunting every day?

Of course, if you can improve your [Basic Archery] from LV3 to LV4 from afternoon to night, both your safety and your grasp of catching prey will be greatly improved.

"What are you thinking, kid?"

At this moment, the displeased voice of the lame man sounded, "At this moment, are you actually distracted?"

"Uncle Zhang, I was thinking, should I change to a more lethal bow?"

Chen Fan grinned.
