Chapter 599: Shura Arena, Round Three - Gains

Chapter 599: Shura Arena, Round Three - Gains
As the archer fell dead, time once again froze.
System prompt: "
Promoted Rank for completing the tenth level of the Shura Arena."
Current Rank: Platoon Leader
Explanation: Before the appearance of ranks of the same level or higher, you can command twenty soldiers. The actual number of soldiers commanded is the previous level's surviving soldiers plus one.
"Armor upgrade: Woven armor, thousand-fold sole boots, iron armguards, pure copper breastplate"
"Current command capacity: three"
"Additional rewards: Basic knife skills, basic round shield techniques, basic knife and shield combo"
"Well done!"
Qin Zhan smiled happily.
In the Shura Arena, the Qin-Han troop system was used, with five people forming a squad and a squad leader, two squads forming a unit with a unit leader. The unit leader stands alone, so a unit actually consists of eleven people.
The maximum number of troops that can be commanded is twenty, as including him as a squad leader, the number of people in the team would be twenty-one. If there are more, the second squad leader should come out.
They are on the same level as him, and as soon as they appear, they will take away two of his squad.
"What a pity!"
He sighed.
It's a pity that all his subordinates were killed or injured, including himself and one more person added after completing the level. In total, there were only four left, while the next level's enemies amounted to twelve!
Shaking his head, Qin Zhan looked down at his body.
The cloth armor that had been cut by the long sword has disappeared, replaced by a set of sturdy and lightweight rattan armor.
However, the rattan armor feels a bit awkward at the moment.
Because an arrow was stuck in his shoulder, and theoretically a brand new vine armor should not have any openings, so now there is a void where the vine armor and the arrow shaft connect.
Qin Zhan knew that if he used healing medicine after going out, this void would disappear, but if he didn't use it, he would have to continue walking with this bug. Please note that the translation might not be entirely accurate as the context provided is limited.
Just...
"Sigh!"
He sighed again. Four pairs of twelve, two of his side injured, the opponent not only had a complete lineup, but also had two cannons and a squad leader with equal combat power to him. Translated: "
In this comparison, even with the use of healing medicine, there is no chance to continue moving forward!
Qin Zhanqiang strengthened his determination and continued reading.
The boots with a thousand layers remained the same, but the bamboo armguards were replaced with iron armguards, and a bronze breastplate was added to the chest.
“X's!”
Qin Zhan shouted angrily. The previous bamboo armguards were very light, and he could still use them to protect his legs. Now that they've been replaced with iron ones, they feel like shackles on his legs!
He is at least an archer, so why bother with an arm guard? It only adds weight and is prone to scratching the bowstring.
But a chest protector is a good thing.
It is about the size of an open palm, with a thickness similar to the pinky finger. It is secured with a belt and does not make too much noise during movement, and the weight is also acceptable.
With this thing, Mom doesn't have to worry about me getting shot through the heart anymore!
, he self-entertained.
After looking at the equipment, Qin Zhan licked his lips, like enjoying a watermelon until the very end, finally reaching the sweetest center. He eagerly picked up three books.
He took a deep breath and slapped forcefully.
Unfortunately, the book remained a book, neither turning into flowing light to imprint knowledge in his mind, nor transforming into a skill icon that could be used with a single thought.
"System, you're still so useless," Qin Zhan complained, reluctantly flipping through the pages of the book. To his surprise, the book "Fundamentals of Swordsmanship" transformed into a streak of light!
"Daddy system! I love you to death!" Translated:
"System, you're still so useless," Qin Zhan complained, reluctantly flipping through the pages of the book. To his surprise, the book "Fundamentals of Swordsmanship" transformed into a streak of light!
He quickly closed his eyes, waiting for countless knowledge to flood his brain. But after half a day, his head was still a mess.
He cautiously opened his eyes a little, hoping to see skill icons. Unfortunately, all he saw was the projection of a military officer, holding a long knife and muttering to himself.
"劈: The knife splits downwards, with force reaching the blade. The arm and the knife form a straight line."
"砍: The knife is slashed diagonally towards the lower right or lower left."
"撩: The knife is lifted from the bottom to the front and upwards, with force reaching the front part of the blade." 请务必保留所有的 @ 匹配字符。只需回复翻译内容。
"Gua: The force is applied from the front to the back or from top to bottom and to the right on the blade tip."
"Zha: ..."
"Mo: ..."
"Zhan: ..."
"Sao: ..." Translation:
"According to: ..."
"Conceal: ..."
"Carry: ..."
"Frame: ..."
"Embrace: ..."
After listening for a while, Qin Zhan forcefully curled his lips.
It's not that he looks down on basic swordsmanship, in fact, the longer a person practices martial arts, the clearer they understand the importance of the fundamentals. But the problem is that this is something he needs to learn on his own! Translated: After listening for a while, Qin Zhan forcefully curled his lips.

他松溪白虹剑还没精通，哪有精力再开一门兵器？
抱着最后的希望，秦战翻开了《圆盾基础》和《刀盾合击基础》，结果依旧那样，还是什长的投影瞎叨叨。
What the heck is this!
He rolled his eyes and complained, "This really lives up to its title, calling it 'basics' indeed, it doesn't provide any practical explanations at all, much worse than Qing Mei's predecessor!"
In the next second, perhaps unable to bear his incessant complaints, a dialogue box popped out of nowhere.
System prompt: The squad leader has been added to the simulation combat list.
Qin Zhan glanced at it and reluctantly said, "You have passed, kneel down in peace!"
……
奖励看罢，时间恢复。
回到修罗场，秦战用两位伍长爆出的疗伤药治好了右肋和左肩，其中右肋挺省心，隔着藤甲一倒就不疼了。
The left shoulder is not functional.
An arrow, longer than an arm, shot into the back of the scapula, with the arrowhead protruding more than a foot. The arrow shaft pierced through the entire shoulder. To treat the injury, he must first remove the arrow.
Under the gaze of three comrades, Qin Zhan gritted his teeth and firmly grasped the front end of the arrow shaft. After a moment of contemplation, he placed the hilt of the short sword in his mouth and bit down. With a stomp of his foot, he pulled it out!
"Pfft!"
"Mmm mmm mmm!"
He widened his eyes, bloodshot veins swarming in the whites of his eyes. His jaw muscles exerted an uncontrollable force as his teeth deeply embedded into the wooden sword hilt, blood and sweat bursting forth simultaneously.
"Crack!"
One tooth couldn't bear the immense biting force and broke directly.
Qin Zhan's neck and entire back were tightening in pain, the blood vessels on his forehead bulged, and with each beat of his heart, the blood vessels throbbed. His arms and thighs kept trembling.
He endured severe pain and forcefully bit open the cap of the healing medicine bottle, then directly pressed the bottle's opening onto the wound.
In the next moment, a miracle happened!
"Phew! Damn it..."
The pain vanished instantly, but the tense muscles, cold sweat, and broken teeth remained. The stark contrast was so overwhelming that it left one speechless.
Spitting out his broken tooth, Qin Zhan wiped off the sweat and applied the healing potion provided by his comrade onto him.
Finally, he began licking the wound.
"Give it to me!"
He forcefully took the longsword from his comrade's hand, and used a short sword to cut off his belt, taking the scabbard as well.
This is a bull tail knife.
This kind of knife became popular since the late Qing Dynasty. When the blade is placed upward, the arc from the handle to the tip of the knife resembles a bull's tail, hence the name bull tail knife.
The tip of this knife is slightly raised, the handle is curved downward, and the head of the knife is wider than the root, giving it a forward center of gravity and making it more suitable for chopping.
But it is actually a counterfeit. Its blade is thin and narrow, lightweight, and although it appears more powerful than the Yanling sword, it actually poses far less threat to armored targets than the latter.
However, when it comes to cloth-armored and unarmored targets, it's a different story.
@The Qin war, the knife returning to its sheath.
@This knife's sheath is made of hardwood, with a curved shape and cloud patterns inlaid at both ends. In the middle, two copper plates, two finger-widths wide, are bound to prevent the sheath from cracking.
The upper end of the scabbard has two scabbard ears - in simple terms, it means two holes punched on the brass piece, threaded with a fine chain for easy hanging on the waist.
Qin Zhan mentioned the fine chain, grabbed the hilt and pressed it, and couldn't help but recall the scene of the squad leader holding the hilt, using the scabbard to force him to defend, and then suddenly drawing the sword. I'll remember to translate and reiterate the
"I still need more practice..."
He sighed, narrowly avoiding being killed by a mere squad leader. What about the higher-ranking commanders like Battalion Commander, Camp Commander, Deputy Commander, and Division Commander?
These military leaders, how powerful will they be? He licked his lips, feeling excited and hopeful. According to the rules, the resting time for the tenth level is ten minutes, so after licking the package, Qin Zhan continued to move forward with his three subordinates towards the rising smoke.
These military leaders, how powerful will they be?
He licked his lips, feeling excited and hopeful.
He wanted to see what was there.
Ten minutes later, he was stunned.
There were endless military tents and towering city walls! A pixel-sized person on the TV screen was climbing up a toothpick-sized ladder.
The smoke of war billows, the cry of killing shakes the heavens!
Arrows like pouring rain, lives like ants!
Qin Zhan stared blankly, completely awed by the siege warfare of the ancient times, until the sound of galloping horses broke the silence, and the ground beneath his feet slowly regained his senses.
Looking up, he couldn't help but curse, "Damn! Can this even be done?"
In the eleventh level of the Shura Arena, the system arranged twelve opponents for Qin Zhan.
(Cavalry!)
