Chapter Twenty-Five: Mike the Groping Pig's Hand

"Lord Lord, the defense of the bandit camp is very weak, the bandit camp below level 3 can be said to be no threat, as long as you launch a round of strong attack, you can break through, the level 3 and level 4 camps are more threatening, but the defense force is also very weak, so it only took us a few days to sweep the bandits' camp." Mike said.

Lu Cheng nodded, this time Mike and their harvest was very big, they broke through more than 30 bandit camps, and obtained more than 1,000 gold coins alone, as well as other weapons and equipment, various drawings and even skill books.

"Everyone did a good job this time, here are 300 gold coins, and the extra ones are an extra reward." Lu Cheng was very satisfied with the result, and generously increased the reward of more than 100 gold.

"Thank you, sir." Mike, Gru, and Selina said happily.

"Arthur, your contribution to defending the city is also very great, and I will also reward you with 300 gold coins, and I will pay the pension of the sacrifice partner separately." Lu Cheng will not favor one over the other, Arthur and the adventurers who stayed behind paid more casualties than Mike and his party, so they have more rewards.

"Thank you, Lord Lord, for your kindness." Arthur gave a chest touch, and one of his friends had been among the friends who had died in the past few days, so he had not been in a good mood.

"Red Flame and Leah have meritorious service in defending the city, and they will each be rewarded with 100 gold coins." Of course, Lu Cheng has not forgotten Chiyan and Liya, who are fighting on the front line, it can be said that the loss of the bandits' siege this time can be reduced to the extent that they are today, they are indispensable, if it were not for the elite team of the Red Flame Organization to cut off the connection with the bandits, the price paid may be much higher, and Liya's magic attack directly killed more people than Chiyan, which also seriously suppressed the bandits' morale.

"Thank you, I didn't expect the stupid lord to be very sensible." Chiyan accepted the bounty with a grin, and did not forget to ridicule Lu Cheng.

"Why do you have a mouthful of forgiveness? Obviously she is a beauty, but she is not a lady at all. Lu Cheng complained with a smile.

"Lady? Sister Ben stopped following this path a long time ago. Chiyan shook her hair and said arrogantly.

"Ahh Liya was not happy, and spread her hands in front of Lu Cheng's eyes.

After receiving the reward, Liya immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Lord, Liya will work hard to serve you." ”

"Any service?" Mike asked with a smile.

"Of course!" Leah looked at Mike gloomily, the fire in her hand flashed, and a blazing fireball suddenly appeared on the palm of her hand, "As long as you have the guts to mention it." ”

Mike's face immediately turned green, he is not a person who knows nothing about magic, there are not ten or eight magicians he has seen when he studied under the mentor, and he has also dealt with several human-level mages, of course, he is young and vigorous He has also had various "friendly exchanges" with the mage, with the strength of his level 3 warrior, it is difficult to defeat the level 2 mage in a fair environment, and with the improvement of strength, the advantage of the mage over the warrior will become greater and greater, maybe the level 3 warrior can defeat the level 2 mage, A level 4 warrior can never defeat a level 3 mage, it is said that to defeat a level 3 mage, it takes at least level 5 warriors, and if you win, it is at least level 6, the mage's huge advantage over the warrior can be seen, and in Mike's experience, the chick who is rubbing the fireball opposite is at least a level 4 mage, and she is not even enough to plug her teeth.

"My lord, what level of mage is this Miss Leah you recruited?" Mike asked softly, awkwardly.

"Level 5 mage, what's wrong?" Lu Cheng replied.

"Ah~" Mike felt dizzy for a while, he thought that the other party was at most a human-level mage about level 2, so he dared to tease, but he never expected that he had provoked a master who should not be provoked, a level 5 mage, Mike's mentor is only a level 7 warrior, and he can only be compared with the other party, how can he only leave the territory for a few days, and such a powerful master came.

Mike barely sighed, then asked in a trembling whisper, "Lord Lord, then... What level of warrior is the red-haired next to him? ”

"You said Chiyan, she's a level 6 warrior." Lu Cheng looked at Mike, whose face instantly turned purple, and asked, "Mike, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, my lord, I suddenly feel a little unwell, and I go out to breathe. Mike turned around and ran.

"Hey, what's wrong with Mike?" Lu Cheng watched in amazement as Mike rushed out of the conference room as if fleeing for his life.

"Oh, maybe I broke my stomach just now, I'll help take a look." Red Flame, who was sitting next to Mike, walked out.

Lu Cheng asked the others suspiciously: "The two of them have only known each other, why is Chiyan so positive?" ”

Liya put away the fireball, leaned into Lu Cheng's ear and said secretly: "Mike's hand has been dishonest just now, and it is estimated that it will be cleaned up now." ”

it...

Mike, you're such a person?

Ignoring this pair of living treasures, Lu Cheng continued: "In this battle, all militiamen will be rewarded with 20 silver coins, and another 20 silver coins will be rewarded for each robber killed, and the compensation for the sacrifice will be distributed according to the previous rules. ”

Lu Cheng assigned the task again, because although the robbers were seriously damaged, their lair level 5 camp had not yet been defeated, so the next focus was to organize troops to attack the robbers' lair, and the early reconnaissance work was still handed over to the adventurers to execute.

The next thing is to check the loot, attacking bandit camps and wild monsters is currently the main channel for players to obtain gold coins and blueprints, this time dozens of bandit camps have been broken in a row, and the drawings obtained are quite rich, equipment drawings include [Steel Gauntlets], [Steel Combat Boots], [Steel Shoulder Guards], [Steel Helmet], and a [Longbow] manufacturing blueprint, which can be produced in the wood workshop, requiring 10 units of high-quality wood core, 5 units of high-quality horns, 10 units of high-quality beef tendons, 5 units of high-quality glue, and 5 units of high-quality silk, 5 units of high-quality wood paint, the production cost is about 5 gold each, the exchange price is 10-15 gold, and the profit is considerable, but the territory lacks long-range firepower, so it will not be sold if it is made, according to the production surplus of the carpentry workshop and the alchemy workshop and the food workshop that produce supporting materials, Lu Cheng decided to produce 1 longbow every 2 hours.

Some other equipment drawings are relatively ordinary, bronze swords, bronze swords, iron swords, steel swords, and all kinds of bronze, iron, and steel shield shoulder guard drawings, Lu Cheng didn't look down on them at all, and all of them were thrown to the trading center to sell.

There are also 2 architectural drawings: [French Restaurant] and [Cake Shop], the construction cost is not high, each increasing the prosperity by 500, Lu Cheng immediately used the drawings and started construction in the territory, after all, this is a good thing to increase prosperity and satisfaction.

Among the various bits and pieces harvested, the low-level ones were thrown away at the exchange and sold, and the equipment needed at this stage, such as longbows and steel swords, was used for their own use, but they also found a few strange things, Lu Cheng didn't know what to use, and he was reluctant to sell them, so he would store them in the warehouse first.

Once the loot has been processed, it's time to redeem the limited-time invitation.

"Ding~ You have obtained an expert blacksmith."

"Ding~ You have obtained a senior alchemist."

"Ding~ You have obtained an expert shipbuilder."

"Ding~ You have obtained a senior carpenter."

With a few blue and golden rays of light, 4 strange citizens appeared in front of Lu Cheng.

"Hello Lord, I'm Ian, an expert blacksmith." One of the muscular men with a huge hammer saluted.

"Hello Ian, welcome to my territory." Lu Cheng returned the salute excitedly, an expert-level blacksmith, although he is not as good as the level of Chiyan's epic, but he is also one of the few high-level talents in the territory.

"Hello Lord, I'm Alice, an expert shipbuilder." Another female citizen followed.

"Hello Miss Alice, welcome to join us, now you are the highest-ranking shipbuilder in the territory, please leave shipbuilding affairs to you." Lu Cheng said happily.

"You're welcome, little girl, it's an honor."

"My lord, I'm not the highest-ranking blacksmith in your realm?" Ian, who had just met, asked suspiciously, being a blacksmith is generally more straightforward, and asked directly what questions he had.

"Well, you're now the second blacksmith after Miss Red Flame." Lu Cheng replied.

"Dare to ask what level Miss Chiyan is?"

"Epic."

Ian excitedly asked, "Your Lord, you're not kidding, the epic blacksmith is not something you can see just by looking at it, how long has she been a guest in your territory?" Can you take me to meet me? ”

"Of course it's not a joke, she's my subordinate, I don't know where the person is at this time, I'll introduce her when I see her." Lu Cheng replied.

Ian was dumbfounded and asked, "Lord, you didn't lie to me, did you?" Epic blacksmiths generally don't come to your territory, she can go to any main city she wants to go, now many main cities only have master-level blacksmiths, and even the capital city will not necessarily have epic blacksmiths, there must be many cities that want to invite her to join. ”

, epic so popular?

"That's definitely because my territory is growing so fast." Lu Cheng bragged and didn't make drafts.

Ian looked at Lu Cheng suspiciously, and the meaning couldn't be clearer.

"Ahem, besides, she's not an old man, she's younger than you, in her 20s." Lu Cheng changed the subject awkwardly.

"This can't be, even if it is cultivated since childhood, I have seen the best talent at the age of 18 beginner, 21 years old intermediate, 25 years old advanced, 30 years old expert level, my talent is not bad, I am 36 years old this year, I have just entered the expert level for a year, and the most powerful blacksmith in Lionheart City, known as the Divine Hammer, Mentor Lu An, was also promoted to the epic level after the age of 40!" Ian excitedly said, before the age of 30 to reach the epic level? This is unheard of, if there really is such a genius, it is impossible not to cause a sensation, there is no blacksmith in history who has reached an epic level before the age of 30.

"Hey, there's no way she could lie to me." Lu Cheng was also puzzled after listening to Ian's explanation, some of the settings in the game were not clear to him as NPCs, what Ian said must have a certain truth, and it is also in line with the law of development, after all, it is indeed a bit weird to reach the epic level at a young age.

Put down the doubts first, and the other 2 have also introduced, the senior alchemist is a woman named Mo Lin, and the senior carpenter is a man named Lin Fei, after settling the 4 new citizens, it was not early, Lu Cheng went back to sleep.

There is also a sleep setting in the game, which is also to ensure that the brain can have enough rest time, and if a special event occurs during the rest, the system will wake up the player in time.
