The grappling technique that he had decided to call Thundercoil was very simple and did not require much complex theoretical sophistication.
The whole concept of the technique was to add an electric buzz to basic grappling combat. Meaning he didn't need to do too much.
The few things that did require adjustment and practice were maximizing surface area contact with his opponent to maximize the current.
What he needed to do was to reinvent some of the basic maneuvers keeping that condition in mind.
This part took him back to his days when he trained in jiu-jitsu and judo with his siblings, and then later on in the Martial foundation. It was just relentless practice of basic moves until it got hammered into his soul.
It was simple and straightforward unlike most of his techniques. Most of his techniques had complex mechanisms and systems of function. Especially techniques like the ODA system were among the most complex techniques that he had ever created and seen anywhere.
In comparison, techniques like the Thundercoil were closer to the norm.
His striking technique was not nearly as simple. He had already long begun to deeply familiarize himself with the nervous system of the human body so that he could target them accurately.
It required truly burning the image into your bones such that you always knew where to strike in order to strike a nerve.
Unfortunately, he couldn't use the Mind Palace as a substitute this time, the Mind Palace was a very conscious form of memory, what he needed was a subconscious form of memory, to know all the places that he ought to aim for without any conscious thought.
The reason that he could only aim for nerves was that the amount of current that he could pass with every strike was very little due to the limited contact time and area.
However, if he passed that limited current through a nerve it could have a limited paralysis effect, limited in both degree and timeframe of paralysis.
Thus his training continued week by week as he slowly began gaining mastery of both techniques.
He first came to master the Thundercoil technique first, due to how simple and straightforward the training for this technique was. It was so easy, that it really didn't even feel like training.
However, the technique was not necessarily weak due to this, The reason for that was the fact that the technique was actually more effective than Rui had expected. He discovered that the technique massively increased the chances of landing a rear chokehold on his opponent. There was no way that they could possibly do anything other than the tap.
Or in this case, die.
Rui discovered that this technique was in and of itself not very potent, but it allowed him to employ certain solutions that would give him the win.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm He took a bit of a break from training as he began testing the technique out against the enemy Martial Squires of the surrounding states.
His success rate at being able to take down opponents via grappling increased many folds as many of his opponents found themselves unable to muster up enough resistance to be able to handle what was coming next.
Of course, every now and then he ran into a particularly defensive Martial Artist who simply possessed the ability to resist grappling.
Much of his adapted grappling was a little useless in such circumstances and he got thrown off. That was an unexpected weakness surrounding he simply did not expect to encounter. It made the move a little risky.
The striking technique took longer to master. He needed to be able to strike nerves properly with the Lundenfire Marble that he had grafted into his nails and the skin under his nails. It allowed him to convey current into the target's nerves easier than if he just randomly struck them.
He was particularly ecstatic to try the technique that he had named Thundering Tap. It was a name that conveyed the gentleness of the strike. The reason that it was a gentle technique was that it relied more on accuracy and precision than it did on speed and power.
In fact, power was just irrelevant in this technique, it just made landing the correct strike harder since a powerful strike would be unable to correct course to adjust for the moving target.
The good news was that it meant more variety and versatility for Rui, but he also couldn't just combine this technique with his other technique to get an even more powerful striking technique as a result. They were simply antithetical to each other.
That was fine by Rui, he would rather have more options rather than a single technique that was overpowered.
The time had come to try both techniques in combat against the enemy Martial Squires from the foreign entities.
Rui and Kane stepped onto the battlefield as the two of them were singlehandedly deployed against a small squad of enemy Martial Squires.
Normally, such an uneven matchup was not something that the Department of defense would ordinarily create, however, it appeared that they were not in for an easy ride. The Department of defense had long since noticed the two of them exceptionally strong Martial Squires that also possessed an extreme amount of synergy and teamwork with each other.
Particularly, Rui was extremely good at matching Kane perfectly. This was an unexpected application of the predictive model in combat. Using the predictive models as a way to predict allies and friendlies, it would allow for an unheard-of level of coordination and teamwork.
And that was exactly what Rui and Kane achieved each time that they entered the battlefield together and fought together. Rui would pull out one powerful technique after another to launch against his enemies while Kane stormed around the battle with his chaotic energy, disrupting their defenses while casually evading their offense effortlessly with his Fulminata Godspeed.
Now it was time to see how much of a numerical gap they could handle.
