The greatest man alive novel (by Maverick Bowman) novel Chapter 456

Gerard thanked Nathan and Gussie for saving Angelina and invited them to stay and have dinner. But the other party refused him.

Gussie was injured and had to be treated quickly. He said he would come later.

“Who is Natalie learning martial arts from now? Do you know?” Nathan asked.

“I don’t know… Didn’t she say that she is only doing morning running and boxing?” Gussie said, but she really didn’t know who Natalie was practicing martial arts with.

Nathan said lightly. “Don’t play dumb. She followed you to chase the van. She can’t have such physical fitness just by practicing long-distance running!”

Gussie said, “She doesn’t want to say it, and then of course, I can’t force her!”

Nathan nodded and let go of this matter.

Natalie insisted on changing her life and striving to become stronger. Then, she naturally had her way, and he couldn’t interfere too much.

“It was too thrilling today. The kidnapper is so powerful. He should be a master of Hidden Force. When I fought with him, I felt like I was pricked by a cactus,” Gussie said and was still a little shaken up.

Fortunately, she was a good learner, and she trained hard during this period, so she made rapid progress. Otherwise, she might have been beaten to death by the opponent.

Nathan said, “Tell me about your combat process today, and I will evaluate it.”

Gussie talked about her combat process in detail. Hearing it, Nathan nodded again and again.

She was just a beginner in martial arts. It was no easy task for her to persist for such a long time. Besides, she overcame her fear and made a sneak attack, killing one of the kidnappers with a stone.

”Write your ‘Guidance on Combat’. It should record all the combat processes. Then, you can always read it to figure out how to improve,” Nathan said calmly.

“I see!” Gussie couldn’t help getting excited secretly, hoping that one day she could write a “Guidance on Combat” comparable to Nathan’s.

Nathan taught Gussie by heart and even showed her his precious “Guidance on Combat”, which recorded his style, tactics, routines, and habits against the enemy.

If it fell into the hands of his enemies, they would more or less develop some tactics that could be used to defeat him. Also, thanks to it, Gussie could do well in the life-and-death fight today. Although she failed to win, she was not killed anyway, and she delayed time.

Nathan said, “People who practice martial arts have the courage on a sudden impulse, but it wasn’t always good to be courageous. So, there is a saying among the fist practitioners. That is to train the brain… It means that you need to train your brain to be more agile. Sometimes fighting with people is not just a matter of skill level.”

”There have been countless incidents of masters being set up throughout the ages. And that was because they were not smart enough. You’re not smart enough. Maybe because you beat a few gangsters in the combat last time, and it gave you confidence, you forgot to call me about this matter.”

Gussie stuck out her tongue embarrassedly. It was indeed very dangerous today. Fortunately, Natalie called Nathan in advance. Otherwise, both Natalie and she would have been beaten to death. With her martial arts, she couldn’t compete with the kidnapper, and her chances of winning were extremely slim.

Nathan added, “The person you met today is practicing Crane Fist, and some of his moves are related to Wing Chun Group. Fortunately, the terrain is relatively open, and I recently pushed you hard on learning Monkey Fist…”

”If you were in a narrow terrain, you couldn’t have used it, but he could have beaten you to death in minutes because his fist is short, ruthless, and powerful. You used the trick of grabbing the sand and throwing it on the other’s face. It was a good move. A master should make good use of the terrain advantage and win by any means…”

”Martial arts are used for protecting the country and your family. As long as they can help one kill his enemy, one can use them by any means.”
