53. Parting gifts

"Since you have become a companion, I will give you a name." Ding Hao looked at the cute dark slime and thought for a few seconds, "How about calling you a bean paste bag?" ”

"Roar!" Dark Slime ...... No, the bean paste bun shook his body happily, obviously very happy with the name.

Since they have become companions, it means that Ding Hao and the bean paste bag cannot hurt each other, so Ding Hao held the bean paste bag and hugged it off the trunk. Although the bean paste bun looks like a large lump of metal, the little creature is very light, about the same weight as the same volume of water.

Putting the bean paste bag on the ground, Ding Hao took out a flashlight and carefully studied the black broken tree. The broken tree has a metallic texture to the touch, and it is hollow, and there is some liquid that emits white fluorescence in this hollow broken tree.

Fluorescent liquids? Is this what Elo is looking for?

Ding Hao took out a hunting arrow, put the tail of the arrow into the broken tree and dipped it in a little liquid. It turned out to be a fluorescent, milky, oily liquid with a refreshing fragrance.

Liquid of Life: The essence left after the tree of life withered, it has the magical effect of rebirth. Note: Drinking at level 10 or less can directly increase by one level.

Obviously, this is what Erro is looking for. But looking at the introduction of liquid, Ding Hao suddenly found a problem, "The Division" is a wasteland game based on the real world, but in such a sci-fi world, why are there items with strong fantasy colors such as dark slimes and trees of life?

I can't figure it out, I really can't figure it out.

Shaking his head and banishing these messy thoughts out of his mind, Ding Hao took out the siphon and Erlenmeyer flask found in Seattle from the interface space, and sucked the liquid from the broken tree into the bottle. There was a lot of life liquid in the broken tree, and it took two Erlenmeyer flasks to drain the liquid in the broken tree.

"Well, one for Ellro, and one for myself." Ding Hao flipped the Erlenmeyer flask in his left hand and put it into the interface space. Ding Hao plans to use the Liquid of Life once at level 10 to quickly raise himself to level 11, and as for the remaining liquid of life, he can find a buyer to sell, which should be worth a lot of money.

After picking up the bean paste bag that was rolling on the ground and stuffing it into his backpack, and making sure that nothing was left here, Ding Hao left the cave with the Erlenmeyer flask containing the liquid of life.

"Hey, did you get anything in there?" After Ding Hao came out, Er Luo asked expectantly. By this time, Erro had regained his human form, and most of his body had recovered, but he was now very weak and unable to get up and move.

"I found this." Ding Hao handed the Erlenmeyer flask in his hand to Althea, "I think this should be what you want." ”

"What is this?" Althea pulled the rubber plug and sniffed, "It's quite fragrant." ”

"Remember why we're here?" Ding Hao took out a silver spoon and handed it to Althea, "I think you can taste a little bit, and then all your doubts can be solved." ”

"Are you serious?" Althea took the spoon and asked with a frown, "Can you guarantee that this thing is not poisonous?" ”

"Of course." Ding Hao nodded, the introduction of the inventory will not be fake, and this can indeed improve the evolution level of creatures. "I think if you drink it, you should be able to control your transformation ability."

"If you wish." Althea looked at Ding Hao, then at Ellro, and found that her father was also looking at her expectantly, "Then I'll give it a try." ”

Althea carefully poured a few drops of liquid from the Erlenmeyer flask onto the silver spoon, and after handing the Erlenmeyer flask to Ding Hao, she closed her eyes and stuffed the spoon into her mouth with a generous expression of taking medicine like going to death.

"My daughter is afraid of taking medicine." Seeing Althea's guilty face, Ellro said to Ding Hao.

"I understand." Ding Hao nodded.

"Hey, it tastes good." When Althea put the spoon in her mouth, she suddenly opened her eyes in surprise, "Sweet, with a long aftertaste, it's delicious." ”

"Do you feel anything physically?" Ding Hao asked, "For example, numbness, itching, and pain." ”

"Wait a minute...... Althea closed her eyes and felt it slightly, "I feel better and a little hot, as if there is a force rushing in my body!" ”

"That's right! It's this feeling that guides them, releases them! After hearing his daughter's words, Errlo, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but say excitedly, because he also felt this way when he transformed.

"I'll give it a try." Althea's fists were clenched, her pretty face turned red, and under the gaze of Ding Hao and Error, Althea's appearance began to gradually change, from a human to a werewolf.

"Okay, have I changed anything?" Feeling that the power was fully unleashed, Althea opened her eyes and asked the two men in front of her.

"Well, there's a little bit of change." Ding Hao and Erro glanced at each other, and then looked at Althea. At this time, Althea is not much different from the original appearance, except that there is an extra pair of upright gray triangular wolf ears on the top of her head, and she still shakes from time to time, looking very energetic. At the same time, there is a long and thick gray tail on the back, which stretches out a large hole in the clothes, and is still swaying rhythmically from side to side.

Beast-eared mother, Althea has actually become a beast-eared girl! Ding Hao quietly turned on the recording function of the tactical terminal.

"Nothing has changed." Althea looked at her hands, touched her cheeks again, and then asked Ding Hao and the two suspiciously, "Did we make a mistake?" ”

"There's no mistake." Ding Hao stretched out his finger and pointed, "You touch the top of your head and behind you." ”

"...... behind you" Althea reached out and touched it back, and then grabbed a fluffy, still wriggling thing, and immediately screamed in fright.

"Hey, is she normal like this?" Looking at Althea, who was checking her body in a panic, Ding Hao patted Ellro's shoulder and asked, after all, Althea doesn't look like a normal transformation no matter how she looks like this.

"Of course it's normal." Erro was very calm about this, "This is just not a complete transformation, I only had the claws of a werewolf with only my left arm, and I can master the ability to transform into a werewolf with more practice." ”

"Oh." Ding Hao nodded, "I see." ”

"By the way, I have something I want to tell you."

"Huh?"

"Thank you for doing me a favor."

"Clams, you're welcome." Ding Hao smiled freely, and the green dot on the tactical terminal that said that he was recording was still flickering rhythmically.

Then it was time to teach, and while Erro was teaching Althea how to transform, Ding Hao, who felt a little bored, got up to collect the materials on the mutant bear that died outside the cave. Because the mutant bear died of exhaustion and neurotoxin, the tissues on his body were relatively intact, unlike the previous spindle spider mother, whose stomach was completely blown up by grenades, and nothing was found except for some venom and blue crystal nuclei.

However, compared to reptilian and insect mutants, beast mutants have far less precious material on their bodies. But there is one material that is absolutely sufficient for the bone mutation creature in front of you, and that is bone.

Ding Hao took out the dagger and slashed through the skin, fat, and muscles on the mutant bear's chest, revealing the white and heavy bone plate underneath. The mutant bear's ribs were not like the round bars of ordinary creatures, but square bars, and the adjacent ribs were staggered together, and even the sharp dagger could not be inserted into the gap. Such a structure is both sturdy and flexible, like a piece of bony plate armor.

And the bones of this mutant bear are tough and dense, it is a lightweight material with quite good properties, even the 7.62mm intermediate power bullet can't leave any traces on it, Ding Hao doesn't need this thing if he has a bean paste bag, but he can sell these bones when he gets to the city, after all, no one will hate this light and flexible bulletproof material.

In addition, there are bear skins, bear claws, and bear teeth, which are good things for making weapons and equipment. By the way, there is also bear bile, the bear bile of the mutant bear is extremely toxic, and the task of hunting the mutant bear in the game in the past is basically related to poisoning and detoxification. So this thing can be sold or used for yourself, and Ding Hao, as a gun ranger, has an antidote needle production option in the skill of chemist.

Overall, this mission is not a loss, although El Luo can't give much reward except for a thank you, but the miscellaneous items obtained in the mission can already make Ding Hao earn a lot of money.

After returning to Nighttown, Erro asked all the townspeople of Nightshade to take the Liquid of Life in the name of physical examination, and then personally taught them how to master the skills of transformation one by one, and the problem of werewolf infestation that had plagued Nightshade Town for decades was finally over in Error's hands.

……

"You see, it's all your credit that they're so happy!" At the banquet to celebrate the restoration of the broken bridge, Althea, who was drunk with blackberry wine, said to Ding Hao inarticulately, and the whole person almost leaned on Ding Hao's body, with a beautiful and smooth big tail wagging behind him.

Ding Hao looked around, and the residents of Night Town were all partying around the bonfire, drinking and singing, and the noise was endless. However, these people have more or less traces of transformation, just like Althea's tail, which becomes out, but cannot be taken back. After all, he had just allowed himself to transform sensibly, and it would take at least two weeks of practice to control the ability to transform into a werewolf. However, these residents didn't care, they directly turned the celebration party into a masquerade party, which was stranger than anyone else, and they had a lot of fun one by one.

"It's not just me, it's your father, and of course you." Ding Hao took the glass and touched Althea, and the water in the cup splashed out. "Cheers to our credit!"

"And I actually have the credit...... Hey, hey, hey......" Althea laughed, "I'm so happy." ”

The noise continued all night, and it was only when the warm sunlight shone through the bright windows on Althea's face that she woke up from her sleep.

"Well, my head hurts." Althea rubbed her eyes, and just as she was about to get out of bed, she suddenly saw a cardboard box on her bedside table.

"What is this?" Althea took the cardboard box and found a letter on it.

Dear Altea, by the time you read this letter, I was already gone. It's been a pleasure to meet you and hopefully we can meet again. By the way, it's a dangerous world right now, so I've got a gift for you, I hope you like it. -- Ding Hao

"Gifts?" Curiosity about the gift diluted the sense of loss, and Althea opened the box, revealing that it was a polished M9 pistol, with two magazines and 60 rounds of 9mm Luger rounds under the pistol.

"Thank you." Althea stroked the gun, "I like it a lot. ”
