Chapter 26 - 1100 Pounds (2/2)
Why not drag the situation to his advantage, which was his strength?
Alvin cleared his throat. “I mean, I want more challenging events.”
Alvin meant that they should stop playing with bows and arrows and go for a tougher event like weightlifting.
But just as Alvin was about to say this, he saw Graves smiling.
“Oh, that’s easy. Bring that thing over!”
With that, Jax trotted into the building.
Alvin had to swallow what he wanted to say. At the same time, he began to think, “What is that thing?”
Soon, Alvin saw Jax bring over a cross-shaped bow.
Alvin looked for a long time before he was sure that it was indeed a bow.
But the difference was that it had the shape of a cross as if two bows crossed each other.
As for its bowstring, if he did not look closely, Alvin would have thought that it was four paddles.
The material used for this bow and arrow was unknown. The entire bow was not even painted. The four paddle-sized bodies of the bow together formed the shape of a windmill. The bowstring was like the unprocessed tendon. If it was placed on the ground, it would be the height of an adult.
Jax smiled and handed the bow to Alvin.
When he took over the bow, Alvin felt the weight in his hand. This was not something that a human should use. It was more like a fixed military construction on the city wall.
“1200 pounds.”
Jax smiled and said.
1,500 pounds was equivalent to five tons in modern units.
This was definitely not something that a normal person could draw.
In other words, one could draw it was not a human.
“This was a permanent facility on the ancient castle when I passed by a country. I bought it over.”
Graves explained.
“This thing was not designed to be drawn by the arms. As the other mechanisms weren’t there at that time, I bought it as a collectible.”
“Those people,” Graves pointed at his hangers-on and said, “They occasionally challenge this thing as entertainment.”
“But this thing is obviously not something that a person can draw it to the fullest.”

“In fact, you don’t need to draw it to the fullest. You just need to draw a few centimeters away, and you’ll have an extremely powerful strength.”
Graves explained.
Since Alvin said that he wanted a tougher challenge, this was the first thing that Graves thought of.
Of course, this was not to make things difficult for Alvin. They had discovered when they were playing with this bow that they only needed to draw a little, and they would have enough strength to hit the middle of the shooting range. There would be no problem at all.
Graves thought to himself, no matter how knowledgeable a master archer was, he must have never seen this thing before, right?
