Help, I've become a paper man

Chapter 27: Several Restarts

"You don't want me to choose shooting?" Song Yi asked bluntly.

The ongoing countdown stopped, and Noah's Ark remained silent, without any explanation or further progress. For a moment, none of them spoke. Song Yi took the opportunity to adjust his breathing, picked up the arrow, and moved his limbs slightly.

He asked again: "Is it aimed at shooting talent or at me?"

"You are not fit to shoot."

Song Yi did not refute immediately. He was indeed driven by passion. He chose to shoot without knowing the posture and technique. He had only touched the bow and arrow twice. The first time he used the bow and arrow, Yan Changyue held his hand and pulled the bow, aiming and shooting an arrow. The second time he used the bow and arrow... he could only use it halfway, and defeated the opponent with the bowstring. He didn't even know if he was suitable for it.

So he said, "This is the first time I have ever played the bow by myself without any instruction or study."

"You have no talent."

Song Yi said: "Give me the bow and arrow and the tutorial."

He spoke with confidence, but in fact he was not sure. As expected, the electronic voice confirmed his guess.

"Practice is the best teaching material. Your teaching is about to begin. Please be prepared."

As soon as the electronic sound sounded, Song Yi was already prepared. As soon as a shadow appeared above his head, he dodged it much more skillfully than before. He took a step to the side to gain strength and was about to jump up, but this time it was not a giant rabbit that fell. His pounce missed, and the snake scurried away from his feet. In the end, he failed to capture the prey in the first place.

He had to turn around and raise his bow and arrow. Noah's Ark seemed to be aiming at him. The snake was faster than the rabbit, and he had too little time to aim. Almost at the moment of drawing the bow, the arrow left and chased the snake, with a similar result to the last time...but the scales were harder, and nothing was left behind. The arrow was bounced off and fell to the ground.

"Player 072 failed the second round of the trial and failed to kill the target."

Song Yi walked over to pick up his arrow and said, "Continue."

Noah's Ark had no intention of being polite. Just as he opened his mouth, another snake fell from the sky. This time he did not rush to dodge. Instead, he observed the landing animal intentionally. It was more cunning than he thought. When he grabbed the snake's body, he felt a tingling pain at first. His hand shook subconsciously, but he did not let go in time. The momentary relaxation was enough for the snake to break free from its confinement. The situation was even more tragic than last time. Before he could draw his bow, the snake had already scurried into the grass and disappeared.

"Player 072 failed the third round of the trial and failed to kill the target."

"What's wrong with your snake? It has thorns?"

Song Yi's roar was of no avail. Another snake fell from the sky. This time he learned his lesson and did not grab it directly with his hands. As soon as the snake appeared, he raised the bow and pointed the arrow directly at the snake. He endured the pain and pulled the bow to release the arrow. His movements were smoother. The stone arrow hit the snake's scales. The seemingly fragile stone was intact, but it was still bounced off by the scales and failed to pierce the snake's flesh. The failure prompt popped up again. Song Yi was too lazy to even curse. He picked up the arrow immediately, adjusted his position, and was ready for the next attack at any time.

Since the scales don’t work, start with the mouth.

Even as he thought so, he was also secretly on guard. Noah's Ark was particularly easy to guess. It didn't even demonstrate its dirty tricks. It was hard to tell whether it was frank or trying to mess with people's mentality. Fortunately, he dodged in time to avoid further injury. The beautiful idea ended here, and a pig fell from the sky.

Song Yi couldn't help but ask: "Are you planning to go through the twelve zodiac animals?"

no answer.

He had just thought of a solution when Noah's Ark brought a new problem. The pig could naturally use the same method. He turned over and jumped onto the pig's back, ready to endure the pain. This time it was not a stinging pain, but a high temperature. He was thrown out before he could even struggle.

The dirty words also melted on the tip of the tongue in the high temperature.

"It is detected that player 072 is injured in the trial. Do you want to continue the trial?"

"Yes." He answered vaguely. Half a minute later, he got up from the ground. He was still a little shaky when he stood, but he clenched his teeth and forced a twisted smile.

Fortunately, he only felt a high temperature and had no obvious injuries. The remaining pain in his nerves was clearer than in his flesh. He did not call for Noah's Ark, but quietly dragged his body, step by step, into the woods and grabbed the hanging branches.

Humans learned to use tools during evolution, so they didn't need to worry too much. In the process of getting up, they had already noticed things that they had not paid attention to before. Trees, whether branches or leaves, could be used to avoid direct contact, and even to set traps for hunting.

Song Yi spent three minutes getting used to the pain in his body, and another two minutes to knock down a tree. Then, he spent even longer using branches to weave ropes to make a simple trap. The sun was still high in the sky without a trace of haze. Apart from the pain, a thirst that was stronger than hunger also surged up.

After he finished setting it up, he said again: "Noah's Ark, continue."

There were trees for cover and a trap at his feet. The pig did not fall from the sky. With Noah's Ark as the administrator, it was impossible for it to spawn randomly and he would not be given any kills. The pig came from the other side and was some distance away from him, about to rush out of the jungle. He pulled the rope and pulled the pig, but when it slid towards the trap, its excessive weight was a disaster. It was not that it could not fall in or out, but that it fell too fast.

Song Yi grabbed the rope with one hand and lifted the bow with the other, trying his best to control the speed of its fall. Even though he tried his best to protect the bow, it broke with a click under his pull. As for the pig, there was no accident either. After all, it was difficult for it to fight against gravity. The pig continued to fall and hit the deep part of the trap. The branches pierced its eyes. At the moment of death, the failure prompt sounded again, and its fat body disappeared out of thin air, along with the blood.

He loosened his hand in time and was not dragged down, but he still staggered forward another step, looking at the bow broken into two pieces in his hand. He thought about this failure, but his mind was a little blank.

The most fundamental reason was indeed shooting. It was not entirely his fault, but Noah's Ark was blowing a black whistle and intentionally making it difficult for the advantage of shooting to be brought into play. In this matter, this guy was half successful. Now Song Yi has indeed seen that he is probably lacking in talent in this skill.

But... simply killing is not enough, you must use shooting weapons.

Song Yi dropped the dead bow, took a deep breath, grabbed his right forearm with his left hand, and straightened his dislocated hand without any instruction. As soon as the tears came out, he grimaced and shouted, "Noah's Ark! Do you have a smaller bow and arrow?"

This time the rest time was longer. Noah's Ark did not answer, nor did it abandon its prey. As he wished, it dropped a "small bow", but he said "smaller", and what he got was "tiny", a mini bow and arrow that was less than the size of his palm. It was closer to a model, and looked like a metal forged compound bow. He pinched it between his fingers and tried to pull the bowstring. It unexpectedly worked. It would be even better if the arrow was not the size of a toothpick. The tip would not even hurt his fingertips.

Song Yi sighed and complained again:

"Even Cupid doesn't need something this small. Once you pass the test, let me take this with me. It will come in handy when I go back to eat the fruit plate."
