36. Strange engineering device

After handing in the task, the five of them also parted ways and left separately, but at this moment, the dwarf Sogerth suddenly stopped Lin Wen.

"Is there something wrong?" Looking at the dwarf in front of him, Lin Wen asked.

"Well, that's actually the case......" Thorgeth didn't say anything useful for a long time, and in a hurry he took a big sip of wine to make a little more sense, "I want to visit my aunt in the Red Rock Mountain to the west, and I want you to come with me." ”

"Me? Why do you want me to come with you when you go to visit your relatives? Lin Wen was also a little strange about Sogers's request, it stands to reason that he can't go anywhere as a stalker? Why do you need to be accompanied? Could it be that this little man is actually as timid as a mouse?

"That's right." Thorgeth scratched his beard a little embarrassed, "Last year, a group of thorny beasts came on the way to Redstone Mountain, these guys have an extremely sensitive sense of smell, Sogers' stealth is not effective against them at all, and these beasts are good at long-range attacks, Sogers almost lost his life last year, so this time I want to find someone to accompany me, so that we can take care of each other." ”

The spiny beast is a medium-sized monster like a porcupine, generally 1 meter long, about half a meter high, obese, covered with hollow spikes, unlike porcupines, the spiny beast can shoot the spikes on its body like a bow and arrow through the squeezing of muscles, within thirty meters is enough to pierce the chain mail, and the spiny beast will coat the surface of the spikes with their narcotic saliva, the prey hit by the spikes is usually anesthetized unconscious within ten seconds, and then eaten by the carnivorous spiny beast. If it weren't for the fact that he was a dwarf and was very resistant to all kinds of negative effects, he would have become food for the thorns.

"So you found me?" Lin Wen said.

Thorgeth nodded, "There's no class better at dealing with those thorn balls than hunters." By the way, you don't have a girlfriend yet, right? When I got to my aunt's house, I introduced my cousin to you, and she was a first-class beauty! ”

Lin Wen stared at Sogers's old face and took a closer look, imagining a dwarf cousin: square face, bucket waist, arms as thick as his thighs, full of alcohol, looking like an aunt-type girl in her forties but actually only twenty years old.

"Nope! I'm not here yet! Now it's important to improve your strength! Lin Wen sternly rejected Sogers' suggestion to introduce his girlfriend, and when Sogers was full of disappointment, Lin Wen said again: "But I heard that the scenery of Hongshi Mountain is good, and it is also a good place for training, so I will go with you." ”

As soon as the dwarf Thorgeth was sent away, Lin Wen turned his head and saw that Anne, who had just left, had returned.

"Carré, are you free?" Anne asked.

"When did I become a sweetheart?" Lin Wen muttered helplessly.

"What did you say?" Anne blinked her bright cyan eyes at Lin Wen.

"I mean, what are you looking for me?" Lin Wen rubbed his face and changed his face to a smiling face.

"Oh, that's right, because of the demon attack some time ago, the patrol sent by Medin City resulted in a strange device found in the lower reaches of the Reshallow River, and now the Professional Union Guild is gathering people to study it, I thought that since you also know engineering, you may be able to help a little......"

"So you introduced me to them?" Lin Wen pointed to his chest and said.

"Hmm." Anne nodded.

"Okay, let's go check it out."

When Lin Wen came to the largest laboratory of the Professional Union Guild, there were already dozens of people gathered here, but most of them were middle-aged or elderly, and a few young people were also trembling under the scolding of several old men to do various inspections on the objects placed in the center of the laboratory.

In the center of the laboratory is a strange square cabinet, which is composed of a silver metal and red crystal, and is full of various small cracks, in which a red bright spot flashes from time to time, and the most striking is the ruby the size of a human head on the top of the square cabinet.

Lin Wen's arrival attracted the attention of many people, after all, the scene where Lin Wen and Milas entered the VIP room before was still fresh in their minds, but on the current occasion, these people also directly skimmed it and stopped paying attention.

For no other reason, Lin Wen is too young to look like he is good at any professional skills at all. Although there may be some deal between him and Milas, it is likely that it is the reason for the power behind this young man.

What's more, there's something even more appealing here.

"Victor, have you found the energy node of this thing?" At this time, a middle-aged man with amethyst glasses was directing a tall and thin engineering apprentice to study the cabinet, but it was clear that the research process was not smooth.

"No, teacher."

"Where's the rivets? Or whatever is used to make a connection. ”

"Neither, teacher."

"And what did you find?"

"I've detected some regular signals, teacher, but I can't analyze what they mean." The engineering apprentice named Victor looked at the magic device in his hand and said to his teacher, Lin Wen's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there were a few lines on the magic device that were showing a regular wavy diagram.

Others may have to go to great lengths to study what the thing in front of them is, but mastering the engineering of the god craftsman level made it easy for Lin Wen to analyze the specific identity of the thing in front of him.

This is a battle golem, different from the rough shape of the golems made by the gnomes on the continent of Acala, this battle golem is very elaborately designed, with a tough metal skeleton and a hard crystal as a weapon. The whole can be folded up to the size of a one-meter square cabinet, which is easy to carry and store, not to mention transportation.

Coupled with the Golem's powerful energy fluctuations, this thing is sure to be incredibly lethal when activated. Thinking of this, Lin Wen couldn't help but nod secretly for the designer of this golem, obviously this designer can also be regarded as a player.

"Do you see something?" Seeing Lin Wen staring at the golem with a look of understanding in his eyes, and nodding from time to time, he looked completely stable, so Anne came to Lin Wen's side curiously and poked Lin Wen's shoulder and asked.

"Almost." Lin Wen changed his posture and leaned against the wall, "This thing is quite delicately designed. ”

"Huh? Xiaoyou, do you see anything famous? As soon as Lin Wen's words fell, an old man with white hair turned his head and asked.

"That's right, by the way, Your Excellency is ......"

"Fergill, vice president of the Contemptible Engineering Professional Association." The old man introduced himself with a smile. "I'll be in charge of the research on this thing for the time being."

"It's nice to meet you, my name is Carley, a Black Iron Hunter, and I also studied engineering." Lin Wen also briefly introduced himself.

"Carré, do you see anything about this?" Virgil asked again, without the slightest hint of contempt for Lin Wen because of his low strength or young age.
