Chapter 8: The Hero Deer
In fact, Luo Xiu just wanted to transform the musket and modernize such an ancient firearm as much as possible, which is not something that ordinary engineering can do, what is needed is extremely special engineering, Luo Xiu didn't think about it so much, he just thought that he could receive the task of rewarding special engineering drawings.

However, when Luo Xiu talked about hunting demons, Abel's face was abnormal, although it was only a blink of an eye, but Luo Xiu still saw the clues, which made him even more convinced that Abel should have a special mission.
"It's an interesting idea, but the demons are at least third-order monsters, ordinary guns can't hurt them at all, if you want to damage them, you need at least guns and bullets made of Mithril to succeed, it's too early for you to think about this."
"But engineering is not just about making guns, you can use other engineering items to hunt demons, you first find me 200 bronze ingots, two tiger's eye stones, and an elemental core of the ice elemental leader, and I will teach you special engineering." Able opened his eyes suddenly, revealing his sparkling pupils and said in a deep voice.
For demons, many NPCs are very hateful, and Luo Xiu is completely crooked.
"The only task: Abel demands, whether to accept or not."
Description: Able, the engineering trainer of Snow Barbarian Village, asks you to collect engineering materials, collect 200 bronze ingots, 2 tiger's eye stones, and 1 elemental core of the Ice Elemental Boss, and reward you with dwarf engineering and 10,000 experience points. β
The gnome engineering rewarded by the task, Luo Xiu doesn't know what the difference is from ordinary engineering, but the experience reward of 10,000 points is very rich, but 200 bronze ingots! Two Tiger's Eye Stones!! An Elemental Core of an Ice Elemental Boss!! These required task items made Luo Xiu gasp, although the difficulty of the task was directly proportional to the rewarded items, he didn't expect it to be so arduous.
Bronze ingots are produced by smelting copper ingots and tin ingots together, a piece of copper ore can be smelted into a copper ingot, a piece of tin ore can be smelted into a tin ingot, and a copper ingot and a tin ingot can be smelted into two bronze ingots, which means that a minimum of 100 copper ores and 100 tin ores are needed to smelt 200 bronze ingots.
But the worst thing is that mining and smelting require levels, and the probability of failure is very high if the level is not reached, so the amount required may be much larger than the estimated value.
The tiger's eye is a companion gem that has a chance to be produced in mining, and the probability of coming out is very small, but the higher the ore has a greater chance of producing the tiger's eye, but the lowest ore such as copper ore and tin ore has a probability of almost one percent, but if you are unlucky, you may not necessarily dig a thousand times.
The last element core of the ice element leader, Luo Xiu completely ignored this, and he didn't dare to hit the ice element leader if the level was less than 10 to kill him, you must know that the ice element leader is a level 10 boss monster, not to mention the high blood and fierce attack, it will also release ice magic, even if it is a 20-person group composed of level 10 players, if it is not well equipped, it will be a matter of destroying the group in minutes.
There is a reason not to accept the task in front of him, Luo Xiu gritted his teeth and took it, anyway, there is no time for the task, and when he has the strength, he is trying to find a way to deal with the ice element leader.
"For the only task, I fought hard, while there are no players who have learned mining techniques yet, I will go and dig the ore and tiger's eye stone first, and then talk about the matter of the element core." Luo Xiu cursed in his heart about the difficulty of the only mission, while thinking back to the mines he had seen on the way to the Snow Wolf Territory.
With such a large area of snowfield, Luo Xiu has only seen 8 mining points, and he has to quickly learn mining techniques to dig them up, so as not to have many dreams at night, and after the player has the money to learn mining, these mining points in the low-level areas will definitely not have his share.
After learning to mine, Luo Xiu only had 5 copper coins left, and after buying two bags (200 bags each) of inferior bullets from Abel for 1-2 damage, he only had one copper coin left on his body, which was only enough to buy another miner's hoe.
"Ding! You successfully use Mining on a small copper mine, gain Γ 1 copper ore, 2 Γ inferior stones, gain 6 experience points, and increase your mining skills by 1 point. β
"The first mine was successful, and it seems that my luck is good." Luo Xiu stretched out his hand to take out a piece of earthy yellow ore from the small copper mine, and when the two gray stones were also taken out, the small copper mine suddenly disappeared, which made the players watching on the side feel distressed, they had been staring at it for a long time, but it was a pity that they didn't have copper coins to learn mining techniques, otherwise it would not be Luo Xiu's turn to dig.
"It's really good that you still have experience in mining." Luo Xiu put away the miner's hoe and said: "The next mine seems to be in the goat refresh area, and you can collect 20 goat horns by the way." β
Luo Xiu kept running towards the next mining site, completely ignoring the resentful gazes behind him.
After wandering around the goat refresh area for more than two hours, Luo Xiu obtained 12 quick copper ore and 10 pieces of tin ore, but the task of collecting goat horns has already been completed, and there are a few more sheep horns, and the level has also been upgraded to level 4 at this time, but the amount of ore required by the task is far from enough.
"It seems that we can only go to the elk's spawn point, and there will be few players there and there will not be many people grabbing ore." Luo Xiu grabbed the last small copper mine in the goat's refresh point, and at the same time dug up and left in the anger of the other party, Luo Xiu is very skilled in competing prey, after all, when mercenaries sometimes go out on a mission, the task will be taken by several mercenaries at the same time, and at that time, it can only depend on their own means.
The elk's refresh point is just at the junction of the snow field and the forest sea, this is a neutral monster, as long as you don't attack it, it won't be actively attacked, the elk will also use a charge skill similar to a warrior, although the attack power is not as good as the snow wolf, but the speed is not slow, Luo Xiu is not difficult to deal with one-on-one.
It's just that the elk sometimes refreshes an active attack type of elite elk, most of them are adult bucks, and the level will be one level higher, if the elite elk happens to refresh your side during the leveling process, don't hesitate to run away, otherwise you will die under the antlers of the elite elk.
"Bell, bell!"
Luo Xiu wielded a miner's hoe and dug at the small tin mine in front of him.
A dark green gem appeared in front of Luo Xiu's eyes with the cracking of the small tin mine, and after the 132nd use of mining techniques, Luo Xiu finally dug up the associated gem tiger's eye, which made him feel a lot of emotion, his luck was still good.
"With the first one, will the second one be far away?" Putting away the tiger's eye stone and two pieces of tin ore, Luo Xiu was about to look for the next mining point, but there was a sound of battle in the distance, which made him frown, could it be that there are also players here to level up? With the question in his heart, Luo Xiu walked in the direction where the voice came from.
Walking through a large thicket, Luo Xiu came to the edge of the forest sea, and a little further on was the territory of the snow wolf, where there were small shrubs bent by the snow everywhere, and it was very inconvenient to move.
"It should be ahead." Luo Xiu listened carefully to the intermittent sound and determined that he was close to the target, the elk footprints here were very dense, it was the habitat of a large herd of elk, and it was very likely that there were elite-level elk.
The bushes in front of him are getting denser and denser, and there are only a few beast paths about the size of a person in the middle that can be passed, looking into the distance from the gap in the bushes, about a hundred yards away from Luo Xiu, there is a clearing, on which stands a huge elk, its whole body is pitch black, as obvious as black charcoal in the snow.
The elk was fighting with a five-person squad, but there were only three people left in the five-person squad now, one of them was lying on the side and looked dead, but the other dead player made Luo Xiu stunned, and the other party's body was actually hanging on the elk's equally huge antlers, swaying from side to side with the elk's movements, which was really surprising.

The remaining three are also in danger, these players should be the same squad, with a third-level shield warrior, a third-level light priest, and three other damage output classes, which is a standard five-person squad, but now the shield warriors have been strung on the antlers, and the lack of a tank class to resist damage in front of them means that the thieves in the squad immediately lie down.
During the period of time that Luo Xiu watched, the mage in the squad was also killed by a charge from a wild stag, leaving only the hunter player and the Light Priest who had already exhausted his mana.
"No wonder the shield warrior died, it turned out that the priest was out of blue." Luo Xiu took out the novice musket behind him, loaded the low-quality bullets, and quickly moved closer to the wild bucks, intending to save the players.
Luo Xiu has the task of killing the Ice Element Boss, and the players who can level up here are all masters, so ask the other party for help, and his task will hopefully be completed, otherwise Luo Xiu may choose to ignore it directly, he is not so enthusiastic.
"Cobra Shot!"
"Mana Bullet!"
Bang bang! After two gunshots, -15 and -10 floated on the wild stag's head, two damage values, and the amount of blood dropped directly to 200 points.
These two damage values were too high, the wild stag gave up the enemy in front of him, turned his head and began to attack Luo Xiu, which did not make him retreat, but instead met him, and the wolf tooth dagger held in his left hand quickly attacked, stabbing fiercely into the eyes of the wild stag.
"Ding! System Hint: Successfully attack the weak point, dealing an additional damage bonus. β
-26, a large dark red number appeared on the head of the wild stag, and the eyes of the hunter and priest players who watched widened in disbelief that the current player could inflict such a terrifying damage value.
The wild buck that had lost one eye suddenly went berserk, and the corpse on its antlers was also thrown out and smashed to the ground.
Attacking the monster's weak point almost doubled the damage effect, which made the hatred of the wild stag firmly locked on Luo Xiu, and angrily slammed at Luo Xiu with his antlers, wanting him to turn into a sugar gourd like a shield warrior.
Luo Xiu dodged the attack of the wild buck with a dodge in a hurry, and the musket in his right hand also fired a shot at the other eye of the wild buck, but unfortunately it was blocked by the eyelids of the wild buck, causing only 11 damage values.
It stands to reason that the eyelids of wild bucks should not be able to block bullets, but the system judged that it did not hit the weak point, and it seems that the system is not in line with reality, and it needs to be continuously improved.
