725: Chapter 718: Attack Research 725: Chapter 718: Attack Research “Feng, do you like it?” Cheng Ziang posed a question to Feng.
“Is it for ?” Feng tilted her head and asked.
Although her expression didn’t change, she clearly showed so excitent.
She stretched out her hands but never dared to touch it.
“Whoosh!”
Noticing her reaction, Cheng Ziang suddenly unsheathed the long sword.
Decorated with blue and white porcelain, the ivory-colored blade is a masterpiece from the Otherworld Weapons Research Center.
The sight of the sword left Feng stunned.
Her eyes went wide and her mouth fell open as she intently observed the long sword in front of her.
She really liked this sword; it was straight, and the tip was diamond-shaped.
The rigid form appealed to her greatly.
Noting Feng’s joy, Cheng Ziang gave a small smile, then stylishly twirled the sword, turned it around to offer its hilt, and said, “It’s yours.
From now on, it belongs to you.”
“Th-thank you!” Feng stamred out, reaching out shaky hands to accept the sword.
Her gratitude was simple but genuine which was more than enough for Cheng Ziang.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk!” Hu Daoke, who was beside them, made a disdainful sound out of place.
Without even looking back, Cheng Ziang raised his hand and slapped Hu Daoke on the mouth.
It was so powerful that it brought tears to Hu Daoke’s eyes.
He covered his mouth, shooting furious glances at Cheng Ziang.
“Do not practice here.
Wait until we reach an open area!” Baiyue noticed Feng’s eagerness and promptly suggested.
“Can I join in to watch?” Cheng Ziang asked.
“Nobody’s stopping you,” replied Baiyue, leading Feng towards the exit.
“Let’s go!” said Cheng Ziang, tugging at Hu Daoke’s sleeve.
“Why should I bother?
What’s in it for ?” retorted Hu Daoke, his mouth still covered.
“Let’s go!” Without further ado, Cheng Ziang firmly pulled Hu Daoke behind to follow the two.
The group reached an open area.
Simple straw n stood scattered around, so even propped up on stands, evidently set up as targets.
By then, Tangmo, Zhuyan Yu, and others were ready, ard with various instrunts and notebooks for recording.
Even Nightingale, who disliked the sun, exposed herself to the outdoors to seriously read under an umbrella.
Upon seeing Baiyue and Feng’s arrival, Tangmo cheerfully greeted them.
Luoer was kept in her room due to her weak constitution that made her susceptible to magical influence.
Cheng Ziang noticed that Tangmo didn’t have a hairpin on her forehead, indicating that she was the familiar Moumou, not her sister.
Turns out, Momo didn’t enjoy researching the field of magic.
Unable to focus, her sister Moumou had taken her place.
“Hey, isn’t that Ziang’s sword?” Tangmo asked in surprise when she walked up to them.
“It’s hers now!” Cheng Ziang shrugged and inford them.
“Will using this sword affect the experint results?” Tangmo wore a worried look as she turned to glance at Zhuyan Yu.
“No impact.
The glyphs carved on that sword are active runes.
As long as you don’t chant any spells, it’s fine,” Nightingale responded without looking up from her book.
The glyphs imprinted on Cheng Ziang’s sword were active runes.
They were so called because they could only be activated through chanting, which is the exact opposite of passive glyphs.
Once Nightingale affird, Tangmo led Feng to the center of the open ground which held scattered straw n set up as targets.
After leaving Feng there, Tangmo retreated about ten ters and shouted, “Feng, knock down all the targets around you!”
“Yes!” Feng obediently nodded, still reeling from the joy of receiving the sword.
“Very good,” Tangmo nodded approvingly, and then she instructed loudly, “Feng, strike down all the targets around you now!”
Upon hearing Tangmo’s command, Feng imdiately put down her long knife, lowering it by her side, her previously sowhat joyful expression instantly turned stern.
Surrounding herself with a glance, she began to identify the surrounding targets, then drew a deep breath, and suddenly swung the long knife.
As expected, less than a second after swinging her long knife, all her targets were slashed in half, whether they were in front or behind her.
“Sa result again.” Tangmo said, turning to look at Zhuyan Yu.
“Well, let her try again!” Zhuyan Yu nodded, then spoke.
“Ziang, Little Ke, both of you go and replace the targets.
Feng, close your eyes!” Tangmo commanded.
“Damn, we’ve beco errand runners.” Cheng Ziang complained.
“Who asked you to tag along flauntingly, let’s go!” Hu Daoke plaintively/exasperatedly glared at him, pulling him along to walk forward.
Once they had replaced the targets, Tangmo told Feng to open her eyes, then launch another attack.
Feng attacked in the sa way as before, first looking around to lock onto her targets, then she swung her knife to slay them all.
“Did you find sothing?” Zhuyan Yu asked Tangmo, her eyebrows knitted together.
“Feng is locking on to the location of all the targets before she attacks.
To prove this point, I specifically had her close her eyes.” Tangmo said with a troubled face.
“I rember when she was dealing with those enemies, it seed like she didn’t need to turn around to lock onto targets!” Tangmo said, his expression perplexed.
“Sister Moumou,” Baiyue looked at her and said, “When Feng was dealing with them, they were all living beings, creatures with souls, and Feng can sense any creature within fifty ters.”
“Oh, I nearly forgot.” Upon hearing her explanation, Tangmo said in sudden realization.
“Feng, can you perform such an attack without a weapon?” Zhuyan Yu thought of sothing, and thus loudly asked.
Upon hearing her question, Feng did not speak, but resolutely shook her head.
Clearly, she couldn’t perform these attacks without a knife.
However, upon hearing her response, Tangmo suddenly saw the light and imdiately thought of a possibility.
“You two, pick up the straw n Feng cut down, and let’s inspect them,” Tangmo said loudly to Cheng Ziang and Hu Daoke.
“Really just a utility man!” Cheng Ziang said, complaining as he carried the fallen scarecrow.
“Whose fault is this really!” Hu Daoke sighed, shaking his head helplessly.
After the two had brought the straw n over, Tangmo began to study the slashes on them.
Despite being attacked by magic formulas, there were neat cut marks.
Tangmo took a closer look, then suddenly frowned because she noticed that all the cut marks seed to be the sa shape, even the frayed edges were similar.
Realizing this, she suddenly had an idea and deeply inhaled, telling Cheng Ziang, “Ziang, set up a straw man for her and let her cut it directly with a knife without using magic formulas.
After she’s knocked it down, bring the fallen straw man over here.”
“Have you discovered sothing?” Zhuyan Yu asked Tangmo.
“Hmm,” Tangmo nodded and said seriously, “I found that all the cut marks on the straw n are the sa, as if she cut them all down with just one slash.”
“What do you an?” Zhuyan Yu asked.
“Think about it, if Feng hit each straw man with a different strike, they should be in different positions, the cuts should be different, and the frayed edges they produce should also be different.
However, these characteristics are all surprisingly consistent in these straw n, which ans, they were attacked by the sa slash.” Tangmo explained.
Shortly after, Feng had completed Tangmo’s request, and Cheng Ziang brought over the bisected straw man.
“Indeed!” Upon seeing the bisected straw man, Tangmo couldn’t help but nod repeatedly.
“What have you discovered?” Zhuyan Yu asked.
“Look, this one’s been cut down by her knife, and this one was cut down by her magic formula.
They look almost identical.
This ans, Feng has replicated her single knife slash into multiple slashes through the magic formula, allowing her to cut down all the targets simultaneously.” Tangmo explained, pointing at the straw man.
