Chapter 139: 138 Dedicates to Practice

Bai E looked at him encouragingly, "What would you like to learn?""Ranged Weapon Specialization!"

Dai Lian refused to be outdone, "I want to learn that too."

A teachable lad!

Bai E shook the bow, and the compound bow instantly unfolded, "Do you want to learn arc shooting or scatter shooting?"

"Arc shooting!"

"Scatter shooting!"

Two answers blurted out simultaneously.

Bai E looked at them expressionlessly, without saying a word.

It was clearly impossible to teach both at the same time, and he didn't have time to teach them separately during his lunch break.

Realizing their opinions were not unified, the two exchanged glances, with Dai Lian being the first to challenge, "Scatter shooting is more practical!"

Even if he was going for coolness and flair, Dai Lian still preferred practicality.

He already had a pistol for arc shooting, and in sewer environments not suited for gunfire, its combat use would be limited; hunting rats hardly required arc shooting, so learning scatter shooting would clearly speed up his efficiency when clearing out the rat packs at night.

"Arc shooting is cooler!" Arrows flew slower than bullets and were larger in size, making their arcs more exaggerated and more observable, meaning a greater visual impact.

"Scatter shooting is also cool!" Dai Lian appealed to emotions and enlightened with reason.

"It seems so..."

The opinions aligned, "Then let's go with scatter shooting."

"..."

Bai E raised an eyebrow slightly and walked to the side.

When he learned scatter shooting, it had cost him a total of 900 combat experience points, and he wondered how much he could get back from these two players.

Teaching archery was quite simple: all one needed was a target and a bow with arrows.

They had cut plenty of lumber earlier, just erecting two pieces at random could serve as a target.

Drawing the bow and releasing arrows, two arrows shot simultaneously. Discover hidden stories at M-V-L

The arrowheads shone with cold light, glistening under the sunlight.

[Do you decide to teach your target the combat skill?]

[Confirmed!]

...

["Teaching" concluded, through the feedback of "teaching," you have obtained a total of 660 combat experience points, and 870 general experience points.]

Only 1530 combined?

Bai E put away his bow and arrows, frowning to himself.

He had spent 900 combat experience points, but teaching two people at the same time hadn't resulted in a double return.

Glancing at Dai Lian, who was already beaming with joy, Bai E roughly guessed the reason.

This young man's innate talent was most likely related to shooting, making him learn similar shooting skills much more effectively and using less experience to achieve the same result.

Indeed... innate talents, even when unlocked, continuously exert their influence in various fields.

That's each person's unique gift.

But it was still ok, surely he hadn't lost out; he spent 900 and got back 1530, with free tuition and bonuses to boot, it was a win.

As Dai Lian and Kuang Xin finished learning, Gong Yan approached with a smile on her lips, her eyes on Bai E filled with undisguised admiration, "Sir, I want to learn advanced bandaging techniques... but it seems we don't have the conditions right now?"

Every learning process requires a foundation to build upon, and without the conditions, one obviously can't teach out of thin air, can they?

"Pfft!"

The sound of a knife entering flesh came from not far away, and Kuang Xin declared boldly, "Does this provide the conditions needed?"

"..."

"????"

"!!!!"

All three present turned their gazes towards Kuang Xin, their eyes filled with astonishment.

What a man!

So fierce!

Bai E grumbled in his heart, "Do players these days all take such wild approaches?"

They don't feel anything when they play this game, do they?

"But..."

"Pfft!"

A sharp object broke through the resistance of flesh and skin, plunging into his body amidst an extreme tingling sensation of pleasure.

Taken off guard, Dai Lian looked down at the dagger stuck in his chest, grasped by a hand covered in fresh blood.

His eyes, full of confusion, turned to the owner of the dagger, "It's one thing to stab yourself, but why stab me?"

"?" Kuang Xin replied with an almost obvious question, "For one to teach and another to learn, don't you need two people?"

"..."

That made sense.

As Dai Lian watched his bright red blood spurting out along with the dagger's blood groove, he felt dizzy, his limbs grew cold, and he collapsed backward uncontrollably, "Save, save, save me..."

Bai E, quick on his feet, dashed forward to catch his falling body.

At the same time, he looked towards Gong Yan, who was also a bit dumbfounded, "Hurry."

An opportunity not to be missed.

[Do you decide to teach the target survival skills?]

[Confirm!]

Lying on the ground, Kuang Xin curiously glanced sideways at Dai Lian, whose face was turning somewhat pale, "Dai, are you faint at the sight of blood?"

He didn't seem to have this issue when he was coolly slaying monsters, did he? He fought brutally.

Dai Lian's vision darkened, and upon hearing Kuang Xin's question, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, "I faint at the sight of my own blood!"

Bleeding in the game definitely wouldn't truly affect his gaming status, but the sight of vivid red liquid gushing from his own body made him feel as if his life was draining away with it. His willpower even determined his in-game physical state, leaving the game character's face deathly pale.

Thankfully, the grown-up's hand seemed to have some strange magic power, stopping the feeling of life ebbing away as he explained things.

Wuu wuu~ The grown-up was just awesome.

[You have spent 10 generic experience points learning, converting to 5 "First Aid (Bandaging)" experience points.]

[Current First Aid (Bandaging) experience: 80/300, unlock advanced bandaging knowledge "Level 2 First Aid (Bandaging)" at 300 points.]

"Alright..."

"It's done?"

After finishing the bandaging, Gong Yan felt a sense of loss.

Is that it?

But I still haven't learned everything, have I?

Bai E glanced at her expression, and from the feedback of experience points, he knew she hadn't learned everything.

Therefore, he gravely explained the reason, "There aren't enough cases to practice on, not enough opportunities for you to try; it's not your fault..."

Though knowledge could be taught directly, just like how he learned bandaging from Nurse An Lun, simply teaching knowledge didn't seem to reap experience points. It had to be hands-on teaching to bring sufficient feedback for himself.

Imparting knowledge wasn't the goal, reaping experience points was.

Players had plenty of experience points, he wasn't about to feel sorry for them.

Gong Yan said "Oh" softly, her face showing a bit of disappointment. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She knew the grown-up was busy and that she probably wouldn't be able to finish learning now.

"Clack~"

The flint ignited the fat, and Kuang Xin's left hand blazed fiercely.

"..."

"???"

"!!!"

Seeing Kuang Xin this time even knew to inquire with his gaze, Dai Lian covered his eyes with his left hand and resignedly stretched out his right, gritting his teeth, "Come on!"

Like hands numbed by freezing in the frigid winter suddenly brought to the warmth of a stove, the slightly painful and fiery sensation stimulated Dai Lian's nerves.

With his high perception attributes, his body was very sensitive, so he had a deeper understanding of the game's pain feedback, which was radically different from the real world.

Hiss, hiss, hiss~

Ah, delightful~
