Chapter 62 Rain of Pear Blossom Spears
Chapter 62 Rain of Pear Blossom Spears
Han Ye came from the Northern Army system and was selected into the Embroidered Uniform Guard because of his strong combat capabilities.
He was tall and stern-faced, but his presence was usually not very noticeable.
But as soon as he gets into position, Han Ye immediately exudes a fierce aura.
When the three sections of the spear came into his hands, his entire aura naturally condensed on the gleaming spear tip, and the bone-chilling coldness made Chang Yuan frown involuntarily.
Han Ye is also an extraordinary being, with the extraordinary ability of "Body-Breaking Fury". His skin is incredibly tough, making him virtually invulnerable to blades and spears, and his anger can greatly enhance his strength and speed.
In Chang Yuan's understanding, it is an extraordinary version of "Yun Da Nu" that can be perfectly matched with fighting, especially suitable for Han Ye, whose marksmanship is superb.
Han Ye got into position and asked in a deep voice, "Captain, I'm using a gun, aren't you using a weapon?"
Chang Yuan shook his head: "The weapon I'm most familiar with is the revolver, followed by the pistol (bayonet). I won't show off in front of you."
"Don't worry, let's begin."
Before Chang Yuan could finish speaking, Han Ye's spear shot out like a venomous snake, silently piercing Chang Yuan's heart.
The spear was incredibly fast, and even more terrifying was how the tip of the spear subtly pushed the air aside with a slight vibration, without creating any airflow or sound, making it difficult to arouse the vigilance of the attacker.
This is the "Silent Gun," an advanced spear technique from the Northern Army martial arts, specifically designed for nighttime ambushes or to deliver a sudden, fatal blow to the enemy during close combat.
When ambushed by such advanced marksmanship, most people don't even have time to notice before being hit in a vital spot.
Although Chang Yuan saw the shot and stepped out with the Twenty-Four Stances footwork, and even bent his waist to dodge, he still couldn't avoid the swift and silent shot.
But when the spear tip pierced Chang Yuan's chest, Han Ye prepared to shake the gun barrel and raise the spearhead to prevent injury to the captain, and then felt an unusual sensation coming from the spearhead.
There seemed to be an invisible barrier between the spear tip and Chang Yuan's chest, which slid away the sharp edge of the spearhead.
The three imperial guards watching exclaimed in amazement:
"Wow!"
"It really can slice through sharp blades!"
"If your body is tilted even slightly, you'll inevitably be slid away. How can you fight the captain like that?"
"Then try to avoid any angles..."
"Listen to what you're saying!"
"In such a fierce battle, who can guarantee that their attack will be absolutely vertical?"
"If that could really be achieved, the difference in strength between the two sides would be no different from an adult fighting a child!"
"Tsk, all I can say is: Captain, you're spot on!"
"Damn it, you bootlicker!"
Han Ye was equally startled, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes as he watched helplessly as the spring force accumulated in the gun barrel, unable to be pressed down, instead caused the gun tip to jump upwards.
He flipped his wrists in the opposite direction, causing the spear to snap back and thrust the tip downwards again, aiming at Chang Yuan's chest.
With such force, the vibration of the "silent gun" could no longer be maintained, and the gun body brought out a sharp gust of wind.
The sound of the wind reduced the speed of the gunshot, but the angle became more tricky, giving Chang Yuan no chance to dodge.
Chang Yuan realized he couldn't dodge, so he simply stopped dodging and kicked the gun barrel.
At the same time, he turned his body to the left and reached for the base of the spearhead with his right hand in a claw-like motion.
Han Ye was not alarmed by this. Instead, he deliberately pressed down on the gun barrel to make it easier for Chang Yuan to grab the spear.
As soon as Chang Yuan's hand grasps the gun, he will unleash his true energy to forcefully push Chang Yuan's hand away with the "Shock" technique, and then launch an attack that cannot be dodged.
But the moment Chang Yuan grabbed the gun, Han Ye felt as if the gun in his hand had been coated with a layer of grease. No matter how hard he gripped it, he could not hold onto the gun.
The gun was flung from Han Ye's hand and embedded itself directly in the solid ground, burrowing more than a foot deep with a "whoosh," its butt vibrating incessantly.
Han Ye was shocked and blurted out, "Captain, your 'Unsticky Clothes' technique can also be applied to my weapon?"
Chang Yuan replied, "Yes, but I need to touch it myself."
Han Ye shook his head and sighed, "Even with the restriction of touching it by hand, this is still too exaggerated."
"No matter who engages you in close combat, you must always be careful that your weapon doesn't slip from your hand, this..."
He shook his head with a wry smile: "It's impossible to concentrate on the fight."
Chang Yuan said regretfully, "I don't think it's an exaggeration. If I could apply the 'non-stick' technology to the soles of your shoes, that would be truly useful."
"As it is now, it's still far from good enough."
Han Ye: "..."
He had truly felt the power of the captain's "clothes-free" ability, and the thought of his feet slipping because of it sent chills down his spine.
You still say Gao Su is cunning? Aren't you cunning too?
Whether they are soldiers from the Northern Army or martial artists from the Southern Boat and Raft School, having a firm footing is the most fundamental requirement.
If someone slips and loses their footing, 99% of people will be unable to use their martial arts skills and will be at the mercy of their opponent.
Han Ye exhaled, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "Captain, I would like to try again."
Chang Yuan nodded and said, "I knew you wouldn't accept that. I also wanted to see the limits of not getting your clothes sticking to your skin. Let's try again!"
Han Ye pulled the spear from the ground, casually flicked it to create a flourish, and shook off the dust.
He had devised a new fighting style: instead of engaging Chang Yuan in a straightforward, turn-based battle, he would launch a fast-paced attack, so fast that Chang Yuan wouldn't be able to react.
Han Ye believed that since the "clothes-free" ability was so strong that Chang Yuan could even use it on his gun barrel, it was absolutely impossible for it to perfectly cover the whole body.
This doesn't make sense!
The world cannot tolerate such an awesome existence!
Han Ye guessed correctly. After Chang Yuan's extraordinary ability was transformed into the term "zeroing out," he achieved perfect control, as nimble and free as if it were his own fingers.
But it also means that he must personally control the "reset".
If awareness is lacking, capabilities will not be activated.
Therefore, Chang Yuan also wanted to test the limits, not the limits of "returning to zero", but the limits of his own control ability.
Without wasting words, Han Ye vibrated the gun barrel with both hands, scattering several bursts of gunfire.
Before Chang Yuan could see clearly, the gunfire blurred again, turning from a few blossoms into dozens, and shooting out sharp points.
In the blink of an eye, the sharp edge transformed into shooting stars, densely enveloping Chang Yuan.
Rain of Pear Blossom Spears!
It's not a rain of pear blossoms sprayed with gunpowder and iron slag, but an extraordinary marksmanship that transforms true essence into a sharp blade!
Each shooting star is not a mere illusion, but a sharp burst of energy composed of true essence.
Han Ye's outburst caught everyone off guard, unleashing an exaggerated storm of true energy that forced Gao Su, Li Hui, and Qiu Yixin to cover their heads and hide.
It wasn't that I was afraid of getting hurt, but I was worried that my hat would be blown off, my hair would be disheveled, and I would end up with messy hair.
In the Ming Dynasty, having disheveled hair was not only a more serious social offense than being naked from the waist up, but it was also a criminal act that offended public morals and could result in "twenty strokes of the cane".
That is, use a thorny branch about the thickness of your index finger to whip your back twenty times.
Chang Yuan, however, was oblivious to his hair. He was highly focused, tracking each meteor that was hurtling towards him and calculating its landing point, time, and sequence.
Then, disperse and move the "zeroed" area, coordinating with the body's twisting and turning to slide away the true essence blades in each meteor.
His spirit was pushed to its limit, and his body reached its peak as well.
At that moment, Chang Yuan fully understood what it meant to be extraordinary.
It's not some fancy supernatural ability, but a comprehensive improvement in spirit, energy, and vitality, creating an insurmountable chasm between oneself and ordinary people on a life level.
Extraordinary abilities are merely a unique phenomenon that blossoms from the very essence of an extraordinary being's life.
