Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!-Chapter 707 - 227 Begging You, Give it to Me! Once you’ve experienced this, you’ll never be able to let go! (10K)_4
"I must say, even now, the Elf Ranger profession still holds a considerable position of strength on the continent, owing much to your fully equipped supply system."
Upon hearing the praise from the incredibly dominant Lord, Adela's ears fluttered slightly.
Once.
And again!
Visibly, her demeanor became much more cheerful.
Clearly, receiving Kael's commendation left her with not only a sense of surprise, but also an irrepressible pride in the Elf Ranger profession.
"But... it's not enough," Kael added indifferently, "If that's all, it merely ensures that your strength is adequate."
Adela was somewhat puzzled, "Isn't that enough?"
Already so strong, yet, in the eyes of the Lord, there seemed to be little joy.
"Do you know why I had your body modified?"
"To allow me to unleash more efficient destructive power in more suitable places?"
Kael nodded and pulled out a cool-looking Curved Bow from his Space Equipment.
"Try this," he said.
Obediently, Adela took the Curved Bow from his hand and tried it out. A look of delighted surprise crossed her face, and she couldn't help exclaiming:
"This Curved Bow is much better than the best ones we used back in the day."
Kael nodded and said, "The era of your people was over seven hundred years ago; the production techniques and materials for the mainstream Curved Bows on the continent have already stepped into a new era.
This one I bought from the High Forest is one of the better-quality standard equipment they sell. I specifically had them increase the poundage.
Still, from an overall quality standpoint, this Curved Bow doesn't come close to the top-tier ones; aside from its high poundage that fits your current arm strength, it offers no outstanding advantages."
Even so, Adela still visibly showed a strong affection for the Curved Bow in her hands.
Even the Elf Mages, who specialize in magic, cannot help their love for a good bow. To say that a deep love for archery is a trait of the Elf Rangers is perhaps less accurate than saying it's characteristic of the Elf Clan as a whole.
However, Adela hesitated before asking:
"Lord, do you want us to use this Curved Bow as our primary weapon in battle?"
"What's the problem with that?" asked Kael. freewebnøvel.com
Adela nodded and spoke earnestly, "Yes, a big problem. The lethal threat that Elf Rangers bring would decrease again."
A hint of amusement flashed in Kael's eyes, and he chuckled, "Why do you say that?"
"Because, even if materials are upgraded and technology improved, this Curved Bow is much stronger than the ones from our era, but...
A Curved Bow and a compound bow are on two different development paths."
Adela once again lifted her "Whirlwind VII" model compound bow and said softly,
"Even though my arm strength has leapt in quality after the modification and allows me to use such a Curved Bow, I still can't unleash the range and destructive power of the 'Whirlwind VII' model compound bow."
Kael nodded and asked, "Where is the gap between the Curved Bow and the compound bow?"
Without hesitation, Adela replied, "They have different poundage conversion methods. The poundage drawn on a Curved Bow translates directly to its destructive power.
However, because of the energy-saving structures included in a compound bow, the poundage needed to draw the bowstring can be transformed into greater destructive power.
In short, for the same elf, the limit of a Curved Bow they can draw is seemingly no different from the limit of a compound bow they can draw, but considering the presence of energy-saving structures, the destructive power of the compound bow is undoubtedly stronger."
Kael nodded in agreement, then pointed to the compound bow in Adela's hand and asked:
"So, the second question, Adela, what's the difference between fighting with a Curved Bow and with a compound bow?"
Adela answered without hesitation:
"Ignoring the fact that arrows shot from a Curved Bow are farther reaching and more destructive... the biggest issue with a Curved Bow would be that it's more troublesome to maintain."
Hearing this, Kael laughed joyfully, "I've read historical records that the females of the Elf Clan weren't always so troubled by A, right?"
Inevitably, a look crossing Adela's face betrayed that the subject had hit a sore spot, and she replied with some difficulty:
"Originally... it wasn't like this."
This involved a rather embarrassing part of the elves' past.
The Elf Rangers hadn't developed their transcendent skills overnight; rather, they evolved gradually over the long years to their current state.
As everyone knows, to better manifest the precise ability of archery, some commonly used archery stances are extremely unfriendly to women with overly curvaceous figures.
To aim better, it's inevitable to bring the bow and arrow close to one's face, directly in front.
Once blessed by nature with too much body, one would encounter an embarrassing situation: before even bringing the bow and arrow in front, whoosh, the bowstring would be caught in the valleys.
