Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 20 Sword and Shield Fighting Technique

At the same time - in the hall of the chamber of secrets.

The three people surrounded Xiao Zhen who was lying on the ground, all of them looked worried.

"Hey, is he alright?" Ning Wenrui asked, reaching out and waving on Xiao Zhen's face, but Xiao Zhen ignored him as if turning a blind eye.

Ning Wenrui looked at Xiao Zhen who was standing there with some worry. Xiao Zhen's eyes were shining with blue light, and his expression was constantly distorted. Sometimes he seemed to be afraid, sometimes he seemed excited, and sometimes he seemed to be smiling. , under the reflection of the beating firelight in the basement, it looked very strange.

Qin Mingdao: "It should be fine. According to the book of other worlds, the memory of absorbing the soul fire will not affect the summoner emotionally, but will only obtain some additional memories."

"Unless that book is deliberately misleading us."

Xing Tianyu said in a deep voice suddenly. "The Bible also says that the world was created by God. It is better to have no books than to believe in books. Who knows if what is said in this book is true—hey, look into his eyes, there seems to be something in it."

Both of them looked carefully, and sure enough, blue light was shining in Xiao Zhen's pupils all the time, and in the blue light, some messy images could be vaguely seen changing continuously, as if someone was showing a movie to him.

All three of them moved closer, trying to see clearly, but at this moment, the blue light in Xiao Zhen's eyes gradually receded.

what! ! ! !Xiao Zhen suddenly let out a shrill scream, and all three of them sat down on the ground in fright. They saw Xiao Zhen lying on the ground, clutching his chest, panting heavily, his face full of fear. It's sweat.

He glanced around in a daze, and suddenly showed a relieved expression, "Thank God I didn't die!"

"Damn it, what's the matter?"

Xiao Zhen didn't answer right away. He lay on the ground for a while, and suddenly started groping his body with his hands. He didn't let out a long breath until he found that he had returned to reality, and there was no wound on his body. Glancing at the three of them, he said angrily, "I was turned into a hedgehog by more than a dozen spears and daggers just now. What do you think happened to me?"

The three of them were relieved to see Xiao Zhen recovered, but Xing Tianyu asked nervously, "What happened to you just now?"

"What else can it do, of course it is absorbing the memory in the soul fire."

"How is it, how does it feel to absorb other people's memories?" Ning Wenrui asked curiously.

Xiao Zhen thought for a moment, "Well, it feels like I had a very real dream, and also like playing a legendary holographic virtual game, I witnessed or experienced some things in Alex's life with my own eyes.

He didn't seem to have recovered from the exciting memory of writing, and he took a long breath before slowly talking about it.

There are four memories remaining in Alex's soul fire, and the fourth one is the one he died in battle. Although Alex and his gladiator comrades fought bravely, his Gladiators are also powerful fighters, but the strength of their opponents is not weaker than them, coupled with the absolute difference in equipment and numbers, they still lose in the end, and as a gladiator, the price of losing is often It was death, the gladiators were cut down one by one, and of course they also killed many hostile gladiators, Alex alone killed five, but unfortunately there were more than ten enemies left in the end, In the end, only Alex was left alone. At the last moment when he knew he was going to die, he resolutely rushed to the enemy who played Caesar. He wanted to back him up before he died, but was stabbed by a dozen enemies with a bunch of weapons. became a sieve.

The worst thing is that Xiao Zhen, as a bystander from the main perspective, can clearly feel the pain of those weapons being inserted into his body. These memories have already merged with him at this time, filling his heart with a feeling of fear, and even with him. The ancient Roman Empire also grew resentful.

To say that this Alex was also unlucky for a short time, he was aggrieved when he was alive, and was summoned after he died, but was beaten by Xing Tianyu and other four college students, and the last bit of residual memory was also absorbed by Xiao Zhen up.

Ning Wenrui's concern was more practical, "Then besides these memories, didn't you learn some skills?"

Xiao Zhen nodded, "Well, of course I have. First of all, I think I should know Latin now." Xiao Zhen babbled a series of foreign languages ​​while talking, and several people were confused. Ning Wenrui said with a dark face: "By the way, this Latin seems useless. You might as well learn English."

Indeed, Latin is basically a dead language in modern times, and I really can't think of any other use for it other than being used for pretense.

Xiao Zhen thought for a while, then hesitantly said: "Apart from that, I think I have learned something else." A flash of excitement suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he reached out to pick up the sword that was not in use in time. up.

First weighed it, picked up a shield, and then practiced on the spot.

What he practiced was the sword and shield fighting technique used by Alex during his lifetime. There was no specific name for the sword technique, it was completely Alex's life as a Gaul warrior and gladiator, and he had to grind between life and death. Practiced fighting skills.

Although it wasn't flashy enough, the fierce aura between the slashing and stabbing made the three onlookers stare at him.

After practicing a set of sword and shield fighting skills, Xiao Zhen took a deep breath. He could feel that as he absorbed Alex's memory, he was already able to skillfully use the sword and shield to fight.

A confident smile appeared on his face, "Guys, I think I can do 1V5 now."

Qin Ming shook his head and said: "Pull it down, no matter how good your martial arts are, you can knock down with a single shot, and no matter how good your swordsmanship is, you can block bullets? Besides, didn't the skeleton warrior fall under our steel fork just now?" It doesn't feel like a big deal."

Xiao Zhen said, "This is not the same. The skeleton warrior has only residual memories and no IQ at all. He will naturally become enlightened, but this almost opened me up. If it were a living person, the four of us would absolutely It won't be Alex's opponent. He probably died long ago. Believe me, I witnessed with my own eyes how he killed a lion and a bull with his own hands. How can modern people have such combat power? Our country strictly prohibits guns, and ordinary people have no chance to use guns. Anyway, I am now very confident that it will be no problem to deal with ordinary people one-on-five."

Qin Mingyu patted him on the shoulder earnestly, "From now on, if we fight with those animals from the law department again, we will depend on you."

Xiao Zhen nodded and said, "Naturally, who will come next? Do you want to come?"

Uh, Qin Ming hesitated after hearing this, "I'll wait for this, I haven't decided what to summon yet, I'll see what you all summon first."

"I'll do it," Ning Wenrui said at this moment.

He picked up the book of other worlds on the ground as he said, but he didn't make a quick decision like Xiao Zhen. Instead, he searched page by page, compared, and checked the annotations of different summoned creatures. Xing Tianyu and Qin Ming also followed to watch, but he didn't say anything.

After more than ten minutes, when Qin Ming could bear it no longer, Ning Wenrui finally determined his goal.

"Everyone, I've already thought about it. What I want to summon is this—the Green Goblin."
