Chapter 32: Darts


In addition to self-defense and fitness, there is a more important reason for Joan to practice throwing darts, that is, to further develop the practical use of "the hands of higher masters".
These things are too cumbersome to say, and he did not like the long explanation, so in the face of Conti's question, he simply replied: "This is not your business."
"Well, you know what you say!" Kandy snatched a dart from him, looked at it, and threw it on the table in disgust. "I don't like this kind of dart. We The hunters of the Algonquin tribe also use darts when hunting, but it is completely different from yours, larger and heavier, looks like a large banana, usually made of hardwood or horns, dug at both ends Empty, inject melted lead to increase weight." Conti draws a sketch of the Asa darts on the ground with branches, and introduces them to Joan, "Throwing such darts requires special skills. In the hands of smart hunters, throwing The darts that go out can not only accurately hit the prey, but also return to the hunter.
"I have seen the kind of throwing weapon you mentioned in the book. If I remember correctly, that thing is called "boomerang"?" Joan asked Conti.
"Yes, it's a boomerang! Unfortunately, I won't make this weapon, otherwise you can switch to a boomerang, which is much stronger than the tiny darts." Kandy sighed regretfully.
Joan didn't say anything. He does not think that boomerang is more suitable for his current needs than darts. It is true that the Asa's boomerang is more powerful and has a longer range. Unfortunately, the skills used are quite complicated. I am afraid that it will take a lot of energy to reach the realm of freedom. Moreover, the boomerang is a long-range blunt weapon. Without a blade, it can't quench poison, and it can't play his strengths in the field of poison.
Kandy knew that Jo An would rather be alone, and after a few chats with him, he took Jamie to inspect the forest behind the mountain.
After Kandy left, Joan continued to practice throwing darts. After a period of recovery, now the darts he throws can be sure to hit the target. As for whether he can hit the key depends on luck-this is not his short-term goal.
After the darts reached a certain level of accuracy, Joan no longer continued the current practice method, and instead displayed the "hand of the higher master", remotely controlling the invisible force field to throw the darts-this is the real highlight.
The "High Master's Hand" is similar to Joan's hands in terms of strength and flexibility, and there are two advantages that the real arm does not have: first, the extension distance is up to 110 feet, and second, the force field arm has no The color is invisible, more suitable for launching a sneak attack.
After a few days of training, Joanne has been able to skillfully use the "hand of the high mage" to hold daggers to perform basic tricks such as poke and block, and on this basis, try to remotely control the "hand of the high mage" to throw darts. Further explore the potential of this spell.
Joan is satisfied with the results of the first attempt. All the five darts thrown by the "Hand of the High Master" hit the target, which is not much different from throwing it by hand.
In order to give full play to the advantage of the "higher mage's hand" in extending the distance, in the next practice, Joan hangs the palm of the remote control force field over the boundary line, and then keeps retreating until he reaches the opposite wall. At this time, the distance between the "High Master's Hand" and the target is still maintained at about 20 feet, and Joan's distance to the target is 60 feet. He must remotely control the "High Master's Hand" to throw darts at a distance of 40 feet. You have to take into account the aiming target.
It is not easy to do both at the same time. Joan practiced for a whole morning before reluctantly reaching the target, and the darts thrown out could basically hit the target.
After lunch, Jo Ann returned to the courtyard and continued to practice hard throwing darts with the "hand of a high master".
The space inside the courtyard wall was not enough for him to display, so he moved the target outside the courtyard and placed it against the big tree. Joan drew a boundary line 20 feet directly in front of the target to ensure that the "Higher Master's Hand" floated about five feet above the boundary line. He continued to retreat until he was 140 feet away from the target. The magic link between the "Higher Master's Hand" has stretched to the limit. If you continue to pull away, the magic link will break, and the "Higher Master's Hand" will also be eliminated.
Joan stopped at the limit distance, a hundred feet away, and remotely controlled the "High Master's Hand" to aim at the target and throw darts. At such a long distance, "targeting" is no longer possible. The organs and blood vessels on the target surface are blurred in Joan's field of vision, just a bunch of red and blue color lines are intertwined with each other, let alone precise hits. Crucially, even getting on the target becomes extremely difficult. Joan tried three rounds, only four of the fifteen darts hit the target, and he could not even determine whether this was a manifestation of his true level or it was pure luck.
The next round encountered a change in wind direction, and the airflow disturbance caused five darts to miss the target. This made Joan realize that the small dart throwing weapon is indeed as flawed as Conti said, especially in the case of high winds, the precision head will be greatly affected.
Joan remotely picked up the darts with the hand of the "Higher Master", and threw it repeatedly, like the same machine with a clockwork, repeating the above process continuously. The boring practice lasted for a whole day, and Joan didn't close the job until the sun set and he couldn't see the target clearly.
How effective has been the hard work all day? Joanne himself had no idea, but one thing is certain: he will continue to persevere.
After dinner, Joan took the key given to him by Dr. Kailandil and went to the laboratory. The remaining bloodroot and snake venom were all extracted and refined into paralytic toxins, which were carefully applied to the sides of the dart's head. Prismatic blade.
The quenched dart flickered in the blue light under the moonlight. Joan couldn't find a suitable living creature test toxicity for a time, so he put the poisoned dart into the waist pocket to avoid the decomposition of paralytic toxin under strong light.
After finishing these things, the time has come to ten o'clock in the middle of the night. Joan cleaned the experiment table, and after washing, he got into the sleeping bag and clothes and lay down.
In the early morning of the following day, Joanne woke up on the floor of the Kailandil alchemy laboratory. After washing, it took an hour to prepare the spell. After eating a little dry food, I hurried out with the bag on my back. Bloodroot grass and snake venom have run out, and Joan intends to go to the swamp today to collect some more.
Out of the town entrance, walk south along the river valley path, the vegetation along the way gradually became lush, and the road underneath became muddy. When Chaoyang jumped out of the horizon completely, Joan reached the edge of the swamp, and unexpectedly saw the gray bagged animal sitting on the dirt slope, dozing off against the stump.
