Martial Hero Rebirth

Chapter 3: The annihilation of Black Wind Stockade



Chapter 3: The annihilation of Black Wind Stockade

"Yi'er, how do know of martial arts?" Lin Zhihu was astonished. In his memories, this nephew of his had a fragile body and didn't know martial arts at all. Moreover he always stayed in the big manor of Lin Family and never went out. Where did he learn this superb archery?

"Uncle Hu, let's talk about this later!" Lin Yi shook his head, aiming his arrow at the bandit chief, preventing Lin Zhihu from further questioning. Instead, he proposed, "Let's exterminate this Black Wind Stockade in front of us first, they must die today!"

"But" Lin Zhihu was about to retort, yet seeing determination in Lin Yi's eyes, he swallowed back his words. He also suddenly realized, Lin Yi had killed all of the bandits in Black Wind Stockade. With this, the enmity between him and Black Wind Stockade was something only would end after one of them died!

If Black Wind Stockade bandits escaped today, Lin Family probably wouldn't be able to lead a peaceful life ever again.

Lin Zhihu was a person from pugilistic world. Although he had become an escort chief, he always kept the principle if enmity wasn't solved amicably, there would be no end to it'. He was also deep aware of the meaning tearing weeds out by the roots. There wasn't a single kind person in pugilistic world.

"Sure!" Lin Zhihu shouted boldly. After restraining his anger for a whole day, he had been wanting to let it out. The only thing restraining him to this point was the fact that his nephew was in the hands of Black Wind Stockade. Now that Lin Yi had escaped, what else could restrain him?

Today I shall battle to my heart's content. So that these ignorant bunch of Black Wind Stockade would know the mightiness of Tiger of the Jungle'!

The words from these two actually determined the life and death of all members of Black Wind Stockade. This made the bandit chief very furious. The thought of only a couple of subordinates left from more than a hundred of subordinates previously pained his heart extremely.

What's more important was that the brat kidnapped by him once was actually looking down on him right now, which made him felt terribly insulted.

"Since both of you are looking for death, then I will help you!" The bandit chief roared, then charged towards Lin Yi.

His speed was alarming. It was akin to a fierce lion on a prairie!

Seeing this, Lin Yi turned his body and ran away directly.

From the moment the bandit chief walked out of the assembly hall, he had been observing the strength of the bandit chief. With his wonderful experience, he easily deduced his speed must be at least twenty and his attack must be above twenty!

Attack and speed of an ordinary people averaged at ten.

Be it attack or speed of the bandit chief, it was the twice of an ordinary people!

With his current beginner attributes, clashing head-on with the bandit chief was simply courting death!

Previously he had been able to kill those bandits with ease, other than sneak attacks, there was another reason, which was those bandits were only stronger than ordinary people by a bit.

Twice amount of strength, wasn't something could be covered up simply by combat experience!

One was running, one was chasing. Lin Zhihu reacted instantly. With a single stride, he appeared in front the bandit chief. Waving his blade, he roared, "Your opponent is me!"

Blocked by Lin Zhihu, the bandit chief missed the best time to kill, the bandit chief reluctantly let go of that cunning thief. Lifting up his spirit, he engaged in a battle with Lin Zhihu!

With the killing pressure gone, Lin Yi relaxed a bit. This kind of life where one danced on the edge of sword was truly too hard. He roared towards Lin Zhihu, "Uncle Hu, I'll leave him to you then. As for the rest, I will take care of them!"

While talking, his hand movements didn't stop at all. His arrows was directly aimed at the remaining bandits.

Xiu!

An arrow pierced through the air.

It was fast and accurate.

Pu!

A bandit was shot at his heart on the spot, nailed on the ground.

Death!

The remaining bandits were taken aback, looked at each other and raw away directly. However, no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't outrun the arrows from Lin Yi!

Those arrows blocked the escape route of those bandits!

Reluctantly, those bandits could only draw their blades, chased after Lin Yi, wanting to engage in close combat.

Lin Yi naturally wouldn't give them any opportunity.

Readied his bow, he released the arrows!

Xiu xiu xiu!

Rapid fire archery emerged!

In the blink of an eye, the remaining bandits were all shot down!

System Notification

Combat evaluation : Grade A

Rewards : 400 combat experience points

Ignoring the notification, Lin Yi rubbed his sore shoulder due to firing rapid arrows. He looked at the bandit chief. The entire Black Wind Stockade only had the bandit chief left.

In another battle, Lin Zhihu and the bandit chief clashed against each other.

Truly worthy of his Tiger of the Jungle' title, Lin Zhihu brandished his blade vigorously, not losing out to the bandit chief at all. Lin Yi also noticed that Lin Zhihu's attack power was higher than the bandit chief's.

But Lin Zhihu and the bandit chief had the same basic mastery level on blades, which was intermediate stage. From here it could be deduced that Lin Zhihu had learned another martial arts of bronze grade, most likely blade arts of bronze grade!

In pugilistic world, basic martial arts, or referred as iron grade, had five stages: initial, novice, intermediate, advanced, and perfection.

Upon reaching a stage, there would be some increase on one's attributes. Offensive martial arts would increase attack attribute, arts of lightness would increase speed, while defensive martial arts would increase defense.

The five stages of iron grade arts separately increase attributes by 3 points, 6 points, 10 points, 15 points, and 20 points.

The attack of the bandit chief was around twenty, so his basic blade arts was at intermediate stage, presumably at the border of advanced stage.

A finer arts compared to iron grade arts would be bronze grade arts, with silver grade and gold grade above them.

For each higher grade arts, there would be an increase of attributes by 50%.

Xiu!

After recovering a bit of his strength on his arm, he immediately seized an opportunity and shot an arrow aimed at the bandit chief.

Though he couldn't face the bandit chief head on, he still could assist on the sidelines.

Bow attribute: Attack 10 20

Adding up ten points from Lin Yi's strength, his attack reached twenty points or above, just enough to break through the defense of the bandit chief.

Lin Yi's arrow was extremely accurate. Furthermore, the bandit chief was concentrating on Lin Zhihu. Facing Lin Zhihu who was stronger than him, he didn't dare to divert his attention by the slightest bit.

The arrow struck the bandit chief!

No matter what, the speed attribute of the bandit chief had reached twenty points, his speed and reaction was the twice of ordinary people or more.

Though Lin Yi's arrow was accurate, but it still missed the vital point of the bandit chief, it only pierced his arm.

"Heng!"

The bandit chief let out a groan, his movements slowed down a bit, exposing a flaw!

Lin Zhihu's eyes lit up, aiming at that flaw, his blade arts suddenly changed!

From a mighty tiger to a vicious one!

"Black Tiger Blade Arts First Stance - Black Tiger Digging Out Heart"

The blade arts was swift and fierce, aiming only at the heart of the bandit chief.

The blade suddenly accelerated.

Pu!

The blade pierced through his heart, appearing next at the back of the bandit chief.

"You." The bandit chief's eyes widened, seeming to ask how did Lin Zhihu possess a finer blade arts?

Lin Zhihu proudly smiled, "Without finer blade arts, how could I, Lin Zhihu, be able to walk to this point?"

The bandit chief seemed to have realized and nodded his head, spit out a big mouthful of blood, his neck tilted and died.

"Chi!"[1]

Lin Zhihu pulled out his blade from the body of the bandit chief, spitting on the corpse of the bandit chief, "Now you know how powerful I am? Unfortunately, you have died!"

Receiving system notification, Lin Yi threw away the bow on his hand, taking a deep breath. The Black Wind Stockade had been annihilated at long last, leaving no survivors in the entire stockade. His tightened muscles finally loosened. He sat down on the ground, taking in deep breaths.

Such intense battle, with his attributes akin to ordinary people, being able to endure until now was all thanks to Lin Yi's extraordinary perseverance.

Killing more than a hundred people caused Lin Yi's hands weakened, almost out of energy.

"If only the attributes could be increased, then I won't feel so tired!"

Sitting on the ground, Lin Yi thought back on how he had attained the culmination of martial arts previously, sighed, "If only I had practised martial arts!"

"Martial arts"

Lin Yi blanked for a moment, then suddenly leapt up from his seat, ran to the bandit chief's corpse and searched his body. Lin Yi pulled out his empty hands, frowned, "Nothing?"

Afterwards, he went directly to the room of the bandit chief in assembly hall, rummaging around.

"Yi'er, what are you looking for?"

Seeing Lin Yi's weird behavior, Lin Zhihu recovered from his proudly state, followed him and asked with a curious expression.

Lin Yi didn't reply. After finding quite some time, Lin Yi dragged a large box underneath the bed, opened it, revealing several books.

"Found it!"

Lin Yi loosened his brow, laughing heartily.

Lin Zhihu went up to see curiously, only to see several books with Basic Fist Strikes, Basic Arts of Lightness, Basic Blade Arts written above.

All of them were regarded as common stuff in escort agency. He couldn't help but laughed, "Yi'er, you rummaged for so long, only for those things?"

"Yeah!" Lin Yi didn't bother with the disdain shown in Lin Zhihu's eyes, replied delightedly.

"If you want these, I have plenty of them in escort agency. You could have just told me if you wanted them. No need to search corpse, rummage around to the point of almost demolishing the room?"

"Oh!"

Lin Yi just replied simply, as he wasn't in the state at all. All of his attention was focused on those three skill books.

Killing more than a hundred bandits, Lin Yi obtained 10,200 combat experience points, with addition to 1,000 combat experience points from the bandit chief and another 1,000 combat experience points of quest rewards from annihilating Black Wind Stockade.

Lin Yi had a total of 12,200 combat experience points.

He used up 3,000 combat experience points each, totaling 9,000 combat experience points, to upgrade Basic Fist Strikes, Basic Arts of Lightness, and Basic Blade Arts to initial stage.
