Chapter 18 An Unexpected Surprise

After a long while, the bald man's voice finally sounded, "I, no, I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"I shouldn't be."

The sound of swallowing saliva came from the side, one after another.

Such a big desert rabbit fell there, an arrow pierced through its body, it was dead.

Chen Guodong's face was also full of shock, but he was the first one in the crowd to react after seeing Chen Fan's archery last night. The shock on his face was quickly replaced by pride.

Someone couldn't help but run over and picked up the desert rabbit, saying with some difficulty: "It's almost as big as the one the day before yesterday, at least 40 kilograms."

Everyone retracted their gaze and fell on Chen Fan, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"Boy, how did you do it?" The bald man couldn't help asking.

In my impression, this kind of archery can only be done by the Wei brothers, right?

Chen Fan felt a little embarrassed by being looked at, scratching his head, "Uncle Liu, I didn't expect to hit it right away, maybe I was lucky?"

"Luck?"

Everyone took a look at the arrow, which was shot from the neck, and it can be said to have hit the vital point, can this be explained by luck?

"You are not honest, you are not telling the truth."

The bald man looked unconvinced, "Have you practiced secretly?"

"Yes, but not secretly." Chen Fan was speechless.

"Really practiced?"

This time everyone was even more shocked, and asked at once.

"When did you learn archery? How come we don't know anything about it?"

"Yes, Xiaofan, you have practiced this archery for at least two or three years, right? At such a long distance, one arrow killed someone, my goodness, this is too powerful."

"You are hiding it well, kid? You fooled us all. If you hadn't shown this skill today, we would still be in the dark."

"Old Liu said before that he should shoot an arrow. Fortunately, you didn't listen to him, otherwise the rabbit would have run away long ago."

The bald man blushed and touched his big bald head.

He didn't know that Chen Fan's archery was so powerful? Otherwise, he wouldn't have said those words. Thinking back, it's really embarrassing.

Chen Fan glanced at Chen Guodong not far away, and the latter shook his head slightly, so he said vaguely: "It's true that I have practiced for a while."

"I said!"

"It's really powerful, kid. I underestimated you at the gate of the village before."

Several people talked and laughed, and it can be seen that they were happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen Guodong, who was always taciturn, showed a rare smile on his face at this moment. He just shook his head at Chen Fan to tell him not to tell the truth.

Otherwise, if everyone knew that Chen Fan had this kind of archery skills after practicing for two or three days, I don’t know how much of a sensation it would cause.

As for himself, in addition to being shocked, he was indeed a little curious. However, there is no shortage of geniuses in this world. Maybe his son is that kind of archery genius?

Just like those awakened people, before awakening, they are no different from ordinary people, but once awakened, their strength will advance by leaps and bounds, and they can even fly into the sky and hide in the ground.

Looking at Chen Fan from the other side, he seems much more normal.

"Okay, let's keep going forward." He said.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Everyone woke up from a dream.

It is indeed a good thing to have a prey, but there is only one, not enough for the village to share.

But no matter what, this is a good start. More importantly, after seeing Chen Fan's archery skills, what if he encounters a few more wilderness rabbits next time?

The atmosphere in the team was visibly heated.

Chen Fan was still surrounded in the middle, and was protected more tightly. It felt like protecting our archer in a game.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Fan looked at a piece of information that had appeared in his mind before.

"Experience value plus 3."

He looked at this line of words, and his heart was filled with doubts. Experience value? What is this? Could it be that it was rewarded by the system when he killed the desert rabbit?

It is very likely, what is the use?

He looked at his attribute panel and his eyes widened.

I saw that a line of small words appeared again below the potential point.

Experience value: 3

At the same time, there was a plus sign behind the original [Basic Archery], which was not there before.

A light flashed in his mind. Is this experience value used to increase skill proficiency?

"No, how come the proficiency of basic archery has also increased?"

He was a little stunned. If he remembered correctly, he stopped practicing after [Basic Archery] reached level 4, and the proficiency should have been 0%, but now it has suddenly jumped to 3%.

You should know that when [Basic Archery] is level 3, the proficiency increased by hitting a fixed target is not even 1%, let alone the amazing 3%.

The amount of information is a bit too much...

He took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, and finally came to the following conclusion.

In actual combat, the increase in skill proficiency is greater than, or far greater than, normal practice.

Killing fierce beasts can gain experience points.

And experience points cannot replace potential points to strengthen the body, it seems that they can be used to improve skill proficiency.

The first two conclusions have been verified.

As for the third conclusion, just experiment.

He thought about it and tried to click the plus sign. In an instant, the experience points dropped from 3 points to 2 points, and the proficiency increased from 3% to 4%.

"That's right!"

Chen Fan breathed rapidly.

In this way, there is one more way to increase skill proficiency.

Get experience points by killing fierce beasts.

From what I saw just now, the effect of this experience point increase is a bit low, far less than the proficiency improvement brought by the arrow shot to [Basic Archery]. I think it should be because of the higher level of [Basic Archery].

If these experience points are used to learn other skills in the future, I am afraid it will save a lot of time.

People's energy is limited. The proficiency improved by practicing every day has an upper limit. The higher it is, the harder it is. Otherwise, there will be no bottleneck. However, as long as there are experience points, it is not a problem. With enough experience points, you can learn more skills.

"Moreover, the desert rabbit is not very threatening among the low-level fierce beasts. If it is those fiercer ones, or killing the middle-level fierce beasts, the experience points should be more."

Chen Fan thought to himself, and couldn't help but think of the armored rhinoceros he met before. If he could shoot a fierce beast of this level, the experience points provided must be quite a lot, right?

"Xiao Fan? Xiao Fan?"

At this moment, a low call sounded in his ears.

Chen Fan came back to his senses and was about to speak.

The bald man made a silent gesture to him, and then motioned him to look southeast.

Chen Fan looked closely and saw a black, basin-sized, slick rat with its upper body sticking out of the hole, seemingly checking the environment.

This is a low-level beast called a black rat. It is not aggressive, but it is good at digging holes, so it is difficult for people to catch it.

"Are you sure?" asked the bald man.

Not only him, but the eyes of others were also focused on him, with strong expectations.
