Chapter 203 - 196 Sword Technique Two
"The last defeat was due to two reasons. First, the uncertainty of the opponent’s strength, and second, Lin You, you didn’t have sufficient methods to apply your own abilities. How to achieve the best effect when defending, how to cause the most damage when attacking, and how to dodge the most damage quickly," Chris’s bracelet transmitted his voice. He was Babanoya, also Chris’s contractor, and the integrator of the Fire Energy Scepter.
"So first, we need to develop a move that can play to our strengths to the fullest, also known as the so-called fixed skill usage method. Only then can we bring our abilities into full play." Babanoya was indeed much more reliable than a certain cat.
"Compared to that sleazy uncle who only thought about inappropriate things during training, Babanoya is much more professional." Lin You immediately thought less of the cat and the sleazy uncle.
"Take Chris for example. Her weapon is the bow and arrow, and her method of attack is just ordinary mid-to-long-range shooting. However, it includes an addition of flames. Due to its adhesive and impact explosion properties, the bow and arrow suit her the best, although Hua Nation’s crossbow is also suitable. But that form cannot fully utilize Chris’s strength because her Fire Arrows are conjured from her own abilities. The advantage of a crossbow is its strength and penetrating power. However, its disadvantage is that it’s much more complex compared to a bow and arrow. Because of the high temperature of the Fire Arrows, it’s impossible to use common materials for the launching tool, and only the weapon I transform can be used. But due to its complexity, as of now, I am still unable to completely transform into the structure of a crossbow. However, I’ve heard that Australia has a special product called Dragon Saliva Stone, which can enhance the abilities of psychic transformers. I’m not sure if it’s true, but I have not heard about it despite going to Australia several times..."
"Old man, aren’t you getting off-topic..." Lin You said, her face stern, interrupting him.
"Cough cough... I’m sorry, I’m sorry, old age makes one a bit long-winded. Let’s continue with the issue I was discussing. Your ability involves contact freezing, which is an ability with almost no strengths—of course, it’s pretty good at making ice pops in the summer. The activation distance is too close, and the power is weak. Specifically, its practical effect is even less than that of an ordinary dagger. So, what we need is how to maximize the effectiveness of your abilities."
"To maximize lethality. First, the Ice Shield you formed under the instruction in Xilan is a good choice. Using ice crystals as a means of defense and attack is one of the most practical methods for Ice System Power Users. If the edge of the Ice Shield could be a bit sharper, couldn’t it be used as a weapon? You can counterattack while defending. Similarly, I’ll give you a little reference sample." Babanoya coughed a few more times. "I once saw an Ice System Power User, whose ability was also to attack with contact Ice Aura, but he could let the Ice Aura disperse around him, quickly gathering into spikes for attacking. At the same time, even if it was a small firearm shooting, as long as it entered a certain range around him, it would swiftly be frozen by the numerous Ice Auras, losing its kinetic energy and impact. His chosen method of attack, which involves fast close combat, using high speed to dodge opponents’ attacks while inflicting maximum damage up close, should also suit your style."
Lin You seemed thoughtful.
"In that case, increasing speed is a big problem. My current ability skills include the Ice Shield and direct Ice Aura attack. Instant freezing is too difficult."
"This involves a problem of the instantaneous release amount of an ability," Babanoya said, "in this regard, contractors of the Metal Energy Scepter have the best say. The Raphael Family is the most skilled in this ability area, especially in instant release of psychic powers. So you must find the contractor and integrator of the Metal Energy Scepter as soon as possible."
"Also, how is your Second Stage Transformation coming along?"
