Yu Tian was suddenly enlightened when he heard Tao Jun’s words.
This kid had thrown out a few hundred flying needles just now as if he was throwing trash. It turned out that they were all poisoned.
Of course, Poison Needles did not need to pursue any lethality. They only needed to hit the enemy.
There were many lethal toxins in this era. Many chemical compounds only needed an extremely small dose to easily take a person ‘s life.
Even if only the flying needles were used to quench the poison, that little dose was enough.
It was very difficult for ordinary people to obtain all kinds of poisons and chemicals, but an ancient martial arts practitioner like Tao Jun was naturally able to easily obtain all kinds of poisons and all kinds of raw materials to make poisons.
However, what he refined on these flying needles were not lethal poisons, but anesthetics.
This was the practice of poisoning weapons in the martial arts world.
As a conventional backup weapon or concealed weapon, they would not be smeared with lethal poison.
One of the reasons for this was that he was worried about accidentally injuring himself, such as accidentally getting cut by a weapon.
Another reason was that it was to deal with all kinds of different combat situations at any time.
If they suddenly encountered an enemy that needed to be captured alive, but only had a weapon that had been tempered with lethal poison, they would not be able to use it at all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf Tao Jun used flying needles as his most important weapon, he would not be able to temper the lethal poison on the flying needles. Otherwise, if he encountered enemies that needed to be captured alive, the flying needles would be useless as an attack method.
Therefore, the most suitable poisons to be used as conventional poisons were poisons such as knockout agents and anesthetics.
After paralyzing the enemy, they could consider whether to kill or cut them into pieces. This was much more convenient than using lethal hidden weapons directly, and the scope of application was also much larger.
At this time, Tao Jun felt that the overall situation had been settled. He said to Yu Tian and the others proudly, “Don’t underestimate these poisonous needles. Even if two elephants were to take a few needles, they would be paralyzed by me. The two of them won’t be able to escape…”
The two knights did not make a sound. They should be able to understand oriental language, but they seemed to be disdainful of arguing with Yu Tian and the others.
They had not spoken a word all this while, and it seemed that they were still preparing to escape into the wheat field at any time.
Yu Tian glanced at the two knights in Puzzlement. It did not seem that these two guys were drugged and were about to fall down.
Just now, one of the Knights had been pulled by his spear. Although he had avoided the vital parts, he had also left a deep wound on his chest.
Theoretically speaking, this kind of wound would definitely affect their combat ability. If there weren’t any specialized medical personnel to treat the wound, just the bleeding alone would be enough to kill someone.
However, the knight that had been slashed didn’t seem to be injured at all.
According to Yu Tian’s experience, this seemed to be a physique that only genetic warriors possessed.
Genetic warriors basically wouldn ‘t bleed. Their wound muscles would contract on their own and even heal quickly. Normal small wounds were
basically non-existent to them.
The current condition of this knight seemed to be similar as well. There seemed to be no signs of injury at all.
Yu Tian was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that the members of the Knights were also genetic warriors?
However, hadn ‘t the Knights already existed when the Clone Society had just been established?
At that time, the genetic research of the clone society had yet to begin. The knights they relied on were obviously a group of powerful ancient martial art practitioners. They were much stronger than any genetic warriors.
Now, these two knights also had the characteristics of genetic warriors. Could it be that the Knights had also undergone genetic modification?
This was somewhat illogical.
If the knights were a group of ancient martial art practitioners, there was no need for them to undergo any genetic modification. The power of the western ancient martial art system could completely make them stronger than genetic warriors.
At least among all the genetic warriors Yu Tian had seen, there was no one who could fight him alone.
The reason why ancient martial art practitioners were strong was mainly because they could use energy.
The eastern ancient martial art practitioners called this energy internal force. This was an energy system that could crush ordinary people.
The western ancient martial art practitioners were in a similar situation. They also had their own energy system. The easterners usually called their energy system combat chi.
The origin of the term Dou Qi was unknown. It should have originated from a noun in a .
In short, as a noun that needed translation, any name did not matter. The easterners were already used to the term Dou qi.
Whether it was internal energy or Dou qi, they all depended on the existence of the human body.
If the human body had undergone genetic modification and its physiological structure had completely changed, then it would be impossible to accommodate dou qi and internal energy.
Yu Tian had come into contact with quite a few genetic warriors in the past. Those Fellows ‘Meridians and acupoints had already been completely messed up, to the point that they no longer had any.
Although such a body was powerful, Yu Tian was certain that those genetic warriors had already lost the possibility of cultivating internal force or Combat
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOf course, such a thing was not absolute.
The body structure of a genetic warrior might not necessarily be unable to contain a certain type of energy system. However, the current martial arts system and the various secret manuals that were known were not suitable for genetic warriors.
Unless a genetic warrior created a new training system based on their own body structure.
However, such a thing was basically impossible to happen. Creating a new training system was even more difficult than creating a new computer language.
Therefore, it was impossible for a genetic warrior to become an ancient martial art practitioner.
If these two fellows of the Knight Regiment had undergone genetic modification, it was impossible for them to possess combat aura. Yu Tian immediately began to doubt the identities of these two knights.
“Who are you? Knights? Or genetic warriors?”
Although Yu Tian held onto his weapon, he did not approach these two enemies.
The two enemies did not reply. Ever since the first time they met, they had not spoken.
At this moment, Tao Jun was also a little puzzled. “Why hasn’t the anesthetic taken effect? Could it have expired?”
Poisoning a weapon was not something that could be done once and for all. Some poisons still had an effective period. After a certain period of time, the toxicity would be greatly reduced and the weapon would need to be repoisoned.
Generally speaking, the effective period of a lethal poison was quite long. Other anesthetic drugs and the like would easily lose their effectiveness.
The shelf life of this type of poison would not be very precise, just like the shelf life of food.
Some food would still not rot even after the shelf life of the poison had expired.
Some food would rot even before the shelf life of the poison had expired due to improper preservation.
Right now, Tao Jun was suspecting that there was a problem with his own anesthetic.
Yu Tian said slowly, “It shouldn’t be the problem with the anesthetic. They might be genetic warriors, and your anesthetic might not be effective against them… ”
Tao Jun was a little surprised. “Genetic Warriors are that fierce? Didn’t they say that they only take a little more hits than ordinary people? How can they still have such powerful skills?”
Liang Yongde also said at this time, “I don’t think they look like ancient martial art practitioners because I didn’t detect the presence of combat aura on their bodies….
