"Hehe, hehe, catch it quickly, don't let it run away." Among the oilseed flowers on the mountain, the young male and female servants in the manor were having fun here. Without the restraint of the master, they seemed much freer.
"Aha, I caught it, I caught it." A girl shouted happily: "Today it belongs to me, and none of you are allowed to snatch it from me."
The few girls who had not been caught sighed and looked at the dancing fairy in the girl's arms, while complaining that the male partner who helped them catch the dancing fairy was not up to par.
Dancing fairies, also known as dancing fairies, are fairy-like monsters like dwarves, but some scholars attribute them to the demihuman race. These little fairies are generally 20 to 30 centimeters tall and can sing and dance well.
They learn human speech and have their own language. Their biggest characteristic is that they like music. As long as melodious music is played, they are willing to dance to it. At the same time, they are also little magicians and have certain ability to control wind magic.
During the travels of those bards, dancing goblins often take the initiative to travel with them. It can be said that it is the best partner of musicians and bards.
The captured dancing fairy was not afraid at all in the maid's hands. Instead, it flapped its dragonfly-like wings and flew to her shoulder.
The maids gradually stopped arguing. A gust of wind and waves blew, and they all looked towards the rapeseed garden on another hill nearby.
The flowers over there have been beaten to a pulp, and four male servants are fighting Princess Alice among the flowers. The guard who taught her is watching from the side.
"Her Royal Highness seems to play with these guards every day."
"It's not playing, it's training." Another male servant said.
"She is a princess, why does she have to train so hard?"
None of the servants could give a reason.
Suddenly, a male servant kicked Alice in the face and she fell to the ground. The maids watching not far away covered their faces with pained expressions: "That's really a slap."
ah."
Alice was half-kneeling on the ground, her hair stuck to her face. Her long hair that used to be shawl was cut short to her chin. Her big eyes looked at the four people standing on the left and right from time to time.
The warrior-type servant's eyes no longer showed the usual expression, but the fighting spirit he only had when dealing with the enemy.
"Stop." The male guard who taught her shouted, stepped forward and helped Alice up: "Princess, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Alice touched her cheek where she was kicked. There were several small cuts on her face and there was some redness and swelling.
The manservant who kicked her just now apologized quickly.
The guard said to Alice: "In the battle just now, your body's flexibility has improved a lot, and you have used the correct method to avoid many dangerous moves. However, there are still some problems."
"Any more questions?" Alice asked hurriedly.
The guard said: "Your speed is not fast enough, including your reaction speed and your action speed. Otherwise, you should be able to dodge the kick just now."
Alice said: "Maybe. I have been doing the most basic movement exercises these days to allow my body to open wider and make more difficult movements. I don't have time to do other exercises.
"
"For warriors and knights who are good at close combat, reaction ability and speed of action are very important. The faster the reaction and action, of course, the safer it will be. This is also a basic ability that needs to be exercised."
"How fast are your reactions?"
"Me? Me..."
While the guard was still talking, Alice's expression condensed and she suddenly took action.
Originally, the distance between the two of them was very close. Alice took advantage of him to talk and punched him without any warning. At such a close distance, ordinary people would not be able to escape, but seeing this punch instantly
It could hit him, but in the end, Alice's fist just grazed his clothes, and he dodged it a lot. Not only did it escape, but he also counterattacked.
The guard let go of Alice's arm and smiled: "Princess, I'm not bragging."
Not only was Alice not angry, she was also very happy and said: "Wow, that's so fast. Did you really react so quickly? Or did you already guess that I would hit you?"
The guard said: "A person's reaction speed has a lot to do with his concentration of mental will. Don't look at me talking to you, but I am always paying attention to the situation around me, including your every move.
Even your expression, the expression just before you took action, has changed a lot."
"Ah!" Alice sounded a little surprised. He actually paid attention to the surrounding situation so clearly while answering the question, even his expressions were not missed.
Seeing Alice's surprised expression, the guard smiled and said: "It's nothing. When I was a mercenary, I often spent time in the wilderness. I was attacked by wild beasts and monsters from time to time. Over time, I developed the habit of always being alert.
habit."
Alice was stunned and suddenly said: "No wonder every time I want to sneak attack Master, he always finds me. Even when I'm sleeping, he can tell if someone is close to him."
"Not all mercenaries have this ability. Only those who are often in danger can acquire this ability." The guard said: "Your master can become a magician at such a young age. He must have experienced countless experiences.
The danger. Because people can grow the fastest only in adversity."
Alice nodded and listened.
The guard said: "You just asked me how fast my reactions and actions are. I told you that when I was in the mercenary group, I once tested my speed in the space magician's barrier. I can
Within seconds, I reacted to attacks from three people in different directions and methods, and counterattacked two of them. At that time, I was only an intermediate fighter."
"One...one second?"
The guard said: "It's actually less than a second, probably only three-quarters of a second."
Alice was surprised and said: "Isn't it incredible? One second is so short, how can it be done?"
"Do you think I lied to you?"
"No, no." Alice waved her hand and said, "I just can't believe it." (Author's note: I watched a program on CCTV 10 a few days ago, which featured the fastest revolver in the United States and the fastest foursome in American football.
Do an experiment on reaction and speed. The revolver can respond to the red light in 0.13 seconds, and pull out the gun from his waist and shoot in 0.1 seconds. The entire
The process takes more than 0.3 seconds. The football quarterback's reaction and shot speed are faster, his reaction time is 0.12 seconds, his shot is faster than the revolver, and his shot speed is 87 kilometers per hour. This is just an ordinary person,
They can all do it, and the masters in fantasy novels certainly don’t have a problem, hehe.)
"Let's do this." The guard said: "We will also find a space magician to test your reaction and speed, princess."
Alice immediately said: "Okay. Wright is the space magician. Let's go find him. It just so happens that I haven't played with him in the past few days. I don't know how he is preparing for the alchemy finals."
