Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts
Chapter 2: Martial Arts Panel
"Terrible weather." The old man in black robes glanced indifferently at Lorne, then waved his hand dismissively: "Take them away!"
Clearly, the execution could not continue; the sudden downpour disrupted all the plans.
"The verdict will be carried out again tomorrow when the sun is at its zenith," the old man announced to the crowd below.
An opportunity... Lorne keenly realized that this was the last chance.
We need to find a way to save ourselves before noon tomorrow...
In this world, you can't rely on external things; you can only rely on yourself!
Before being led away from the square, Lorne glanced one last time at the bronze pillar in the center of the square.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but the strange runes on it seemed to have become more vivid than before?
...
"Stop dawdling, come this way!"
My flat cloth shoes sank into the muddy dirt road, kicking up a cloud of mud.
The four children, including Lorne, were taken into custody by the lord's soldiers and taken to a temporary detention center.
Their parents simply volunteered to send their children to the execution platform in order to absolve themselves of their "sins".
The actual transport of "prisoners" should be handled by specialized personnel.
The icy rain was a constant reminder to Lorne.
He ignored the wet hair hanging down his cheeks and walked with the group, focusing intently on studying the martial arts panel...
In about ten minutes, we arrived at our destination.
The so-called temporary detention center was nothing more than a dilapidated wooden hut.
The escorts were nothing more than two ragtag knights with swords at their waists.
Since they were just a few children, the lord wouldn't actually send his army to escort them.
This is an abandoned hut next to a livestock farm... Lorne, who has already merged with the original owner's memories, quickly realized his current location.
It's some distance from the central square, requiring you to pass through farmers' villages and farmland.
"You, all of you, get in!" One of the knights, whose face was scarred, opened the wooden door and shoved Lorne and the three children.
The four did as instructed and entered.
The wooden house was drafty and not very waterproof. The large space was only filled with some thatch and had some standing water.
With a "bang," the wooden door closed, and Lorne finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart.
As long as these two guards don't keep a constant watch on him, there's a way to escape this seemingly hopeless situation!
Including Lorne, three of the four children are boys and one is a girl.
One of the blond boy and girl huddled in a corner after entering the cabin, shivering and waiting for death without any hope.
Another curly-haired boy looked around before approaching Lorne.
"Lorne, let's run," the curly-haired boy whispered in Lorne's ear.
The curly-haired boy, named Theodore, was the original owner's playmate. Because he was about to come of age, he fit the characteristics of a jinx and was taken to the execution platform by his parents along with Lorne.
Run? Lorne couldn't help but find Theodore's idea ridiculous: "Run to where?"
"The world is so vast..." Theodore perhaps comforted himself, "There will always be a corner waiting for us."
Even if a few children manage to escape by sheer luck, running day and night, they can't get more than a few miles away.
They were quickly overtaken by soldiers on horseback, not to mention the presence of a wizard.
Even so, Lorne still held onto hope: "Find a way to untie it for me."
He gestured to Theodore with his eyes to untie the thick hemp rope on his wrist.
Theodore understood and reached out with difficulty to grab it.
Although the rope was tied very tightly, the technique was not very skillful, and it was easily untied.
After a period of study, Lorne has figured out how to use the martial arts panel.
By continuously exploring and delving deeper into this wizarding world, you can acquire pioneering points.
Use the exploration points to illuminate the different schools of martial arts included in the martial arts library and study them.
Then, gain attribute points by increasing your proficiency in martial arts and allocate them accordingly!
I need to find a place to hide and quietly acquire exploration points and attribute points, then emerge to sweep across the world after honing my martial arts skills.
The most important thing right now is to escape from here and become a wizard.
That's right, running away won't help; only by becoming a wizard can one save their life.
"Theodore, aside from the Forest of Fireflies, where else near the manor is the lineage of wizards?" Lorne asked Theodore in a low voice.
Theodore was lost in thought: "I overheard my father talking to a knight, and they said there was a place where wizards gathered south of the manor."
To the south, it's unclear how far... Lorne patted Theodore's shoulder lightly.
This is the last chance of survival.
"Theodore, listen to me. I need you to keep an eye on those two guards for me. Give me some time, and I'll lead us out of this hell, okay?"
Lorne looked at Theodore with trust and determination in his eyes.
Theodore nodded blankly; his playmate seemed like a completely different person, making him feel utterly unfamiliar with him.
Lorne untied the rope around his ankles, piled up some straw for cover, while Theodore climbed to the doorway to listen to what was happening outside.
Breathing technique, three-fold strength.
These two martial arts were mastered by Lorne in his previous life, so quickly increasing his proficiency and gaining attribute points was a piece of cake for him.
These are techniques deeply ingrained in our genes.
The name "Triple Force" itself suggests that it is a martial art that combines forces.
In reality, this is a special technique for generating power.
The core principle is to use breathing techniques, through a special breathing rhythm and muscle tremors, to stack power three times in a very short time, forming explosive damage.
Lorne sat cross-legged on the ground, calmed himself down, and took a deep breath.
The prerequisite for performing the Three-Fold Force is a strong physique, but this body has a somewhat low muscle density.
Therefore, we can only start with breathing techniques.
Lorne continuously controlled the rhythm of his inhalation and exhalation, using a regular method to sink his breath into his dantian.
The lungs are the master of qi, and the kidneys are the root of qi.
The art of breathing exercises emphasizes sinking the breath to the dantian (lower abdomen) to activate the body's innate vital energy, expelling turbid air during exhalation, and maintaining a balance between clear and turbid air.
The key is to focus on a continuous, gentle, and sustained breath.
I wonder what the difference is between the breathing technique and the so-called knight's breathing method... Lorne noticed the so-called knight's inheritance in his memories.
In this world dominated by wizards, the reason why nobles are above commoners is because they have mastered unique breathing techniques.
The breathing technique practiced by the knights of Volt Manor is called the Whispering Breathing Technique, but Lorne doesn't know its specific effects.
He glanced at the tightly closed wooden door.
I wonder if these two ragtag knights have any training...
[Complete one breathing exercise (qualified), experience points +1]
[Completed one breathing exercise (Good), Experience Points +3]
[Complete one breathing exercise (Excellent), experience points +10]
...
The quality of martial arts performance determines the amount of experience points gained, generally categorized as: Qualified 1, Good 3, Excellent 5, Outstanding 10.
Lorne was a little rusty at first, but he quickly got into the swing of things.
【吐纳术lv1(100/100)】→【吐纳术lv2(0/200)】
[Attribute Points +1]
【吐纳术lv2(200/200)】→【吐纳术lv3(0/400)】
[Attribute Points +1]
[Awakened Talent: Breath of Nature!]
【Breath of Nature】
[Effect: Significantly enhances breathing techniques, resulting in a higher affinity with the five elements in nature.]
Lorne was overjoyed; his breathing technique had awakened a talent after reaching level 3.
The earlier effects can help you better stimulate your Qi and blood, while the later effects are not useful for the time being.
But perhaps becoming a wizard will allow him to develop a strong affinity for the five elements.
[Attributes: Constitution 3, Strength 3, Agility 7, Spirit 0, Magic 0]
Lorne focused his attention on the attribute section of the panel.
With a light tap of the finger, the two hard-earned attribute points instantly vanished to zero.
And the physique jumped from 3 to 5.
Dramatic changes followed.
A tearing pain shot through his muscles, and his previously loose, flabby flesh gradually tightened.
Lorne clenched his teeth tightly, trying not to make a sound.
Ugh...ugh...ugh...he groaned in pain, cold sweat soaking his already dried shirt again.
A base attribute of 5 is roughly the standard level for an adult male.
Jumping from 3 to 5 is equivalent to transforming from a teenager's physique to that of an adult.
While achieving rapid advancements, this naturally comes with severe side effects.
"Cough cough cough!" Theodore, standing at the door, suddenly started coughing violently.
A moment later, the wooden door creaked open a crack.
But at this very moment...
Damn!
