Honkai Impact 3: Deadwood

"Not bad, but unfortunately, it's still not fast enough." The young man commented.

"Hmm... Captain, Mei is going to do her best this time! Today, I want you to teach me the secret of 'Beichen Two Sword Style'! Haha!!"

After saying that, the girl drew her knife and attacked the captain again. At this moment, the captain's calm face couldn't help but reveal a smile: "I see, Mei Yi really cares about this, right?"

"Of course! After the captain revealed some information, Mei went to check it out, but there was no relevant information anywhere...'Beichen Two Sword Style'...even my father has never mentioned it."

"puff…"

"???"

Seeing that the young man could not hide the smile on his face, Mei Yi temporarily stopped his offensive: "Captain, why are you laughing?"

There was obvious confusion on the girl's face, and Mei thought to herself, did she say something wrong? Still understood something wrong...

"No, no, I just suddenly remembered some things from the past."

"Ago…?"

The young man nodded. The two "showdowns" with the founder of "Beichen Itto Style" hundreds of years ago were indeed very interesting experiences for the captain.

The captain at that time did not expect that just because he was defeated in the sudden encounter and the first duel at that time, in order to deal with himself who happened to use two swords at that time, that person would practice hard for several years to " Based on "Beichen One Sword Style", he created "Beichen Two Sword Style" which was specially designed to defeat his own two sword style.

Thinking of the expression on the girl's face when she finally learned that her opponent just happened to be using two swords, the captain couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, go ahead, Mei."

"Okay, Captain, I'm here!"

After the brief conversation, the girl clenched the sword in her hand and stabbed the captain with a thrust, and the two swift figures became entangled again.

For a moment, there was only a flash of sword light. As the girl gradually attacked fiercely, the two swung their swords faster and faster. The speed was so fast that even Ji Zi, who had just finished swordsmanship training, looked sideways.

One party used skilled sword skills to launch attacks again and again, trying to find loopholes in the young man's defense, but at the same time, he was always wary of counterattacks that might come at any time.

The other side was unhurried, neutralizing every attack of the girl with just the right amount of strength and movements. Even though the girl's sword attack was so fast that it was difficult to see clearly with the naked eye, the boy was still able to block it at the last moment.

For an experienced warrior like Himeko, if you pay a little attention, you will understand that the situation in front of you is not one-sided towards Mei.

It seems that Mei is taking the initiative to attack and the captain is passively defending, and Mei's attack is becoming more and more fierce, putting a lot of pressure on the opponent, but the actual situation is that Mei is actually passive.

The intensive offensive was resolved one by one, and every time there was even a moment of hesitation in the brain's reaction and body movements, what awaited Mei Yi was an unstoppable counterattack from the boy in front of her.

Regardless of shortcomings or flaws, as long as they appear, they will all be seen by the young man, and then, without exception, the counterattack will come immediately.

"Ah... As expected, the captain started to lead me away again..."

Himeko sighed and shook her head. To be honest, she felt that Mei's performance was already very good and she could improve so much in just a few weeks.

Now I'm afraid I can't find a few swordsmen who can compete with Mei Yi even if I search all over the East, except of course the guy in front of her.

Whether it's sparring with Mei, or teaching himself this "new style of swordsmanship" that he has never heard of but is extremely effective in solving long-standing problems... it doesn't seem to be difficult for him, and...

"Obviously she's pretty cute and harmless at ordinary times, but it's really..."

Looking at the two people not far away, the huge pressure that didn't seem to exist but could be clearly felt all the time made even Himeko feel nervous, not to mention Mei herself.

When sparring with the captain, as the battle continues, you will feel an invisible pressure. That pressure comes not only from the captain's mastery of the swordsmanship to the extreme, but also from... himself as his opponent. heart.

When facing an unfathomable opponent, people tend to feel shaken and frightened. That kind of fear comes from the deepest part of the heart, and if you are not careful, you will be swallowed up by it.

On the real battlefield, when you want to defeat someone, the best way is to make your opponent feel afraid.

Fear will expose your opponent's fatal flaws, and he will even defeat you without you having to do anything.

As a soldier, Ji Zi is well aware of this principle. However, if the opponent is a captain, there is no need to be so nervous. After all, it is just sparring now, and the captain will always hit the target.

And more importantly... everyone trusts him, and the softest part of the captain's heart always includes everyone around him.

Bang! ! !

In a daze, there was another crisp sound of metal collision. Just because of a moment of slowness, Mei Yi was counterattacked by the captain.

Although he barely managed to block it, Mei Yi was still knocked back a few steps, and the previous offensive of biting the captain was meaningless.

"Haah...haah...uh..."

The girl stood firm and tried to calm her breathing using the method taught by the captain. Sweat beads continued to slide down her fair cheeks.

When Mei Yi regained her posture, the captain spoke again: "Mei Yi, do you really want to know the secret of the 'Beichen Two Sword Style'?"

"Hmm... I wonder, to be honest, I'm curious."

"You don't think that the 'Beichen Two-Sword Style' that you have never heard of is a more powerful style compared to the 'Beichen One-Sword Style' that you are familiar with, right?"

"Eh? Isn't it?"

"A ruler is short, and an inch is long. Simple strength and weakness cannot make a rational evaluation of these two schools."

"But…"

Looking at the girl's slightly hesitant expression, the captain could naturally guess what she was thinking.
