Chapter 37: Daily Life on the Journey
The sunlight through the shade of the trees has a beautiful verdant green, swaying slightly in the line of sight.
A cramped wooden house with two rows of wooden planks nailed to the brown wooden walls, on which a row of jars and jars β cloudy glass, pottery or even wood β were held in place with condiments such as cinnamon bark, cloves, or feta milk yogurt. On the other side of the wall hung several animal skins, gray-brown or fiery red, like bears and foxes, and next to them was a window.
In late summer, a light breeze blows through the white clouds, and the emerald green vines crawl into the room along the window lattice, palm-sized leaves swaying slightly.
Outside the window, the clouds and shadows of the sky, the lonely peak stands proudly.
Fang Yu sat by the window, holding his chin with his hand, looking at the scenery for some time. Under his gaze, the sky was full of green seas, and the majestic clouds and mountains were as beautiful as a curtain, forming a heart-wrenching picture, and then the giant beast slowly retreated.
The floor under his feet rises and falls in a slight tremor, and there is also the illusion of a floating boat on the sea.
The reason why the large pack beast is called a land boat is not without reason-
"Hit, hit!"
Outside, there was a cry of surprise and joy from the sky. In the forest, Luo Yu and Parker are leveling upβa colloquial version of the Drafter. In fact, the two, plus a little French girl acting as a spectator, are fighting three strange birds.
The journey from the Traveler's Marsh to Al Pahin passes through the southern end of the Egunn Forest, a resonant forest filled with floating Guy Primopars. In the forest, a large number of Equinn foot feather dragons live.
The bird's appearance, with a lizard head, bright feathers and long positive feathers on the metatarsals, is typical of the foot feather dragon. On Earth, the Footfeathered Dragons were even older than Archaeopteryx, but here they are a living scourge.
Because of their sheer numbers, the fact that they often attack passing travelers, and even invade human territory closely, they have once become one of the most notorious aborigines in the Rainbow Bay region - and because they are agility monsters, there are not many teams that can level up them.
Of course, a few people were just passing by. Finding something to do anyway is better than being bored and basking in the sun on the back of a negative hill beast, isn't it?
After all, leveling and adventure are the daily life of the Elector.
The experience of killing monsters from a distance is also reflected in the Phalanx system window in the same team, although there is only a faint line of hints.
He came to his sensesβ
The cramped space is more of a cramped carriage than a wooden house. He sat on the edge of the bed, which was nothing more than a layer of dry reeds and planks, covered with a layer of sheets, and placed on two boxes.
The bed is secured with a rope to the wall on one side and can be stowed away if necessary.
It's all about saving space. Because this was actually a sundries warehouse, storing food and drinking water for Atira and others, as well as materials for daily maintenance platforms such as wood, iron, and ropes, as well as spare equipment, ammunition, etc., which were stuffed to the brim.
But here, a person's place can barely be vacated. In the back two pack houses, six men and women lived separately, and there was really no room for the plovers. Attila also tried her best to reluctantly clear the place of a bed for him here.
But fortunately, Fang Yu didn't pay much attention to it.
In fact, he still thinks that this place is quite good, no matter how narrow the space is, it is much better than sleeping in the barren mountains and forests, and the safety is not comparable - the outside of the carriage is specially nailed with several shields to reinforce, and the upper window panels can also be pulled down to form a solid shield.
And although it was a little smaller, it was still a personal space, and he also found a place to use as a production table.
He used a wooden box by the window as a table, and when he covered it with a wooden plank, it could be used perfectly as a craftsman's table. At this moment, a set of essentially finished Walker parts was laid out on the wooden planks - only the chassis of the Walker II that really couldn't fit was tucked under the table.
This small space can be regarded as satisfying his requirements, if it can be half a meter wider, Fang Yu feels that he can ask for nothing else. At least no matter what, the feeling of not having to rush on your own is great.
He finished the parts of the last part of the walkers, then tied a slip of paper and marked the order of the parts before breathing a sigh of relief. Stretching his waist, he turned his head and just happened to see the goblin construction that the master and the servant left here.
The delicate puppet girl was sitting at the head of the bed leaning against his kingfisher Ξ±AE-type magic furnace, the core crystal had been taken out and was being charged.
The Fairy Heart's mana to maintain Ethernet can be paid from the Magic Furnace, but it still requires a certain amount of mana to maintain the basic mobility of the Fairy Build, in fact, due to the Fairy Heart's very poor mana storage, it often needs to be recharged frequently.
At this moment, the sun was slanting down from the window, shining on the girl's silver hair, sparkling. Her eyelashes were drooping, and there was a different kind of quiet beauty.
On the other hand, Tata was sitting quietly on the table, by the window lattice, with his hands on his knees, sitting opposite the square plover, maintaining a ladylike posture.
Outside the window hangs a flower bed, in which the elven girl planted wisteria and hyacinths, plants that are said to have been favored by Amaya. And a wisteria leaf was climbing into the window, covering the top of Miss Fairy's head, like a beautiful parasol.
Tata is reading the community, intent.
A blue page of light, almost taller than herself, Miss Fairy had to look up to read a page. After each page, she pushed her hands to the side to move on to the next page.
In fact, the cost of 'Otherworld Telecom' is very expensive, and the cost of communication between the two worlds is almost one hundred and fifty lissels per hour.
However, Fang Yu could see that Miss Fairy could see the look of God, and he couldn't say anything.
Knowledge may be invaluable to Miss Tata.
Besides, he still has some money on hand, so he can't even meet such a small request as his Miss Dragon Soul. Even if you are really poor in the future, you can find a way to make money. Fang Yu was a little unproductive thinking about how to beg for food in the future-
Tata flipped to the next page and noticed his gaze.
She paused, looked up, and asked, "Is there anything you want to say to me, Mr. Knight?" β
Fang Yu paused for a moment and nodded.
Tata pressed his palm on the huge page of light, closed it and tilted his head back for his next words.
"I want to know, what is the matter with the Dominating Dragon Soul?"
"Dominating Dragon Soul, as the name suggests, is an artificial dragon soul born specifically for the purpose of manipulating the fairy structure." Tata blinked, his long eyelashes swept slightly, and his voice was a little quiet: "To be precise, it's not the goblin 'construct', it's the dragon knight." I was born for a kind of conquest that has never existed in this world, the Fairy Dragon Knight Construct. β
"Fairy type...... Dragon Knight Build? β
"Theoretically, it can exist," Tata said softly, "The design of the Fairy Dragon Knight may be a little more complex than the average Dragon Knight, but it is only physically complex. What restricts its existence is not the structure itself, but the dragon soul. β
"Dragon Soul?" Fang Yu looked at Tata, this rare fairy dragon soul. "So, the Silver Tower's experiment was successful?"
Tata shook his head slightly.
"I was the fifth of the seven fairy dragon souls that the Silver Tower had produced, and I also witnessed the birth of the last two sisters. But without exception, all attempts were in vainβ"
"In vain, how is it possible?" Fang Yu was taken aback. He had clearly seen with his own eyes that Tata had perfectly manipulated the Fairy Build, and theoretically both the Fairy Construct and the Fairy Dragon Knight used the Fairy Heart Crystal, and there would be no essential difference.
"The problem is with the carrier crystal," Tata's voice was as calm as ever, "You should know, right?" Mr. Knight, there is no dragon knight in the battle craftsman. β
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there was another thing.
In Aitalia, the Combat Craftsman is called the Pseudo-Dragon Knight, the Minor Dragon Knight, which is an honorific title that represents the level of strength that the Combat Craftsman can achieve that is close to that of the Dragon Knight.
But on the other hand, it can also be used as a slur, because the pseudo-dragon knight will never be a real dragon knight.
The reason for this is incredibly simple.
The power of the Combat Tinkerer comes from flexible construction. The core of flexible construction lies in the first half of the term - flexible.
Of course, this flexibility does not mean that they are inherently swift and dexterous. Because the Magic Guided Construct and the Heavy Construct in the Flexible Construct are neither fast nor dexterous, and the only ones that are truly fast and dexterous are actually the Assault Flexible Build.
The flexibility of flexible construction actually refers to the flexibility of combat craftsmen who can rely on them to achieve changeable tactical combinations and freely switch their own combat styles. A Combat Craftsman, who can act like a Wizard when he uses the Wizard's Flexible Build, using his powerful firepower to directly destroy opponents; It can also be an elemental envoy or polymath who uses field control and setting magic to become an all-around master of control.
Of course, when they use the Assault Build, they can also act like a sophisticated, cold-blooded assassin, with a single blow that is far away and agile. Or heavy construction, taking on the work of absolute breakthrough and defender.
But that's not all -
Because the definition of combat craftsman also lies in the ability to control flexible construction. Therefore, when they multi-lane manipulating different styles of flexible builds, and combining them into the battlefield, it will show the truly terrifying side of this class.
The pseudo-dragon knight is by no means in vain.
It can be said that in addition to the fact that the ontology is too fragile and the talent requirements are too harsh, this profession can't find half a point to find fault with.
But there are gains and losses.
It is such a profession, but it is incompatible with the dragon knight.
Because under normal circumstances, the carrier crystal of the dragon knight must be an attribute holy crystal due to its strength requirements. The Holy Crystal has an exceptionally powerful trait, which is that it strengthens the Contractor's magical adaptability.
This enhancement will further specialize in the contractor's magical adaptability, and on the one hand, it will become more handy when resonating with core crystals of the same attribute and adjacent attributes. But on the other hand, it also limits their ability to use other crystals, especially opposing crystals.
For professions that are not combat craftsmen, this restriction is meaningless. Because when they activate their own equipped plug-ins and magic guides through the magic furnace, they must be homogeneous or adjacent crystals.
But for the combat craftsmen, it was a fatal blow. Because in addition to its own magic furnace and plug-ins, the Battle Craftsman also has flexible builds. Due to its indirect control, the core crystal of the Flexible Construct itself has no stat requirements - and once he becomes a Dragon Knight, he will have to give up most of the Flexible Builds on his list.
From the original all-rounder, he has become a summoner who specializes in a series.
Moreover, since the craftsman himself is a life profession, the dragon knight contract does not fundamentally solve the alchemist's own weak combat power, which can be said to be inferior to the summoner.
Therefore, no combat craftsman in his right mind would want to choose to become a dragon knight.
It's a dead end.
After finishing speaking, Tata also quietly added: "The Dragon Knight's attribute holy crystal is also exclusive to special core crystals such as the Fairy Heart. So even if you give up your multi-faceted ability, the fairy dragon soul injected into the attribute crystal can't control the fairy construct-"
"Our plan was doomed from the start. So my sister and I were eventually injected into ordinary carriers and became demonic or battle-oriented dragon souls. β
"And because of the setting, our ability is not even as good as the average dragon soul."
Fang Yu couldn't help but think of the scarred star dagger. He looked at Tata and couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart.
But on the other hand, Fang Yuan also suddenly came to another possibility. This somewhat shocking possibility even made him feel slightly suffocated. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "What if it's a carrier with no magic attribute?" β
Tata looked at him.
After being silent for a long time, he quietly spoke: "Mr. Knight, may be the only dragon knight battle craftsman; Of course, there is also this possibility......" She paused for a moment before continuing to add this sentence: "The only elf-type dragon knight." β
"The premise is that you first have to find a fairy dragon knight build."
"What about the Fairy Dragon Knight Build......?" Fang Yu couldn't help but ask.
Tata only shook his head.
"Due to the failure of the entire project, the Silver Tower has effectively halted further research on the Dominating Dragon Soul. The follow-up plans of each branch are also on the verge of stopping, and as for the production plan for the Fairy Dragon Knight Build, which will be completed in the last step, the preparation has naturally been cancelled. β
"In other words, there are no fairy dragon knight constructs in this world yet?"
"Maybe not in the future."
Tata replied quietly.
Fang Yu could fully hear the weight of this sentence. In this world, the alchemists who can design and build dragon knight structures may not be more than one in the entire First World. With the addition of the Second World, it may be possible to double that number, but it will not exceed ten people.
And among them are the Elect.
Not a single one.
Most of them are not even combat craftsmen, but master craftsmen who specialize in alchemy. Because it doesn't go to this point, and it is impossible to go to the extreme in such a field, and take off the most dazzling crown of the kingdom of magic guides and constructs.
But Fang Yu's heart was completely unable to calm down.
What has been the biggest weakness of the elves for a long time?
That's a joke from the Artisan Guild.
The king of battle craftsmen, the most powerful goblin has only one weakness, and that is that his strength can only be reflected in others.
Then the fairy dragon knight controlled by the dragon soul can completely turn this joke into history.
And even if you don't need a dragon knight, what does it mean to reach a combat craftsman who is close to the strength of a dragon knight, plus the ability of a real dragon knight?
Fang Yu could only think of one word to describe that kind of scene.
I am alone, that is, the army.
An army of one man β
He clenched his fists slightly, and suddenly understood what path he should take. If no one can help him build a dragon knight, then why not make his own? He knew that there was a profession in this world called Master Craftsman.
For the first time, the rugged path to the second world, covered with thorns and mist, seemed to become clear.
Fang Yu turned around and said to Tata, "I've decided, we'll do it, Miss Tata." Let me prove that your birth is meaningful - the Dominating Dragon Soul has actually succeeded from the moment it was born, but Mr. Hain-Sailm's last wish has not been fulfilled for the time being. β
Tata was slightly stunned, always thinking that he had heard such a sentence there.
Almost subconsciously, she replied in the same tone:
"It's going to be hard, it's going to be hard, it's probably never going to work."
"But you have to give it a try, don't you?"
Miss Fairy looked up at her knight.
