Chapter 107 Equipment Reserves

Getting the little girl out of the way, Arrow looked at the remains of the hook-toothed rats again.

Coco was really a little concerned about the dedicated eyes of his own president, and asked, "Brother president, what are you thinking?" ”

Arrow smiled, pointed to the wreckage, and said, "Coco, do you find it strange? ”

Coco: "What's weird? “

"At the beginning we eliminated the hooktooth rats, and the little things would be cursed after being baptized by the light magic of the holy bread, and then return to their normal size. But look, this one. ”

Arrow pointed to the hook-toothed rat on the cloth that didn't look like it had shrunk much, the sheer size was terrifying. And more importantly, after leaving it overnight, there was no corruption in this hook-toothed rat.

"The hook-toothed rat didn't become the way it was, but died that way. I wonder if this means that this hooktooth rat is more adaptable to this curse, so even if it is cursed, it can turn this curse into its own and become a part of its own power? ”

Hearing this, Coco tilted her head and thought about it. Then, she immediately showed a very surprised expression, and shouted in shock: "Brother President! No! Not really! Even if the elder brother doesn't have any strength and doesn't know any magic, he must not think of gaining power by eating demonic beasts! Especially this terrifying curse power! Ouch! ”

Arrow patted the little girl's head lightly, making her think like this again.

"Don't worry, I won't eat it if you give it to me. I think that now that the hooktooth has adapted to the power of these curses, it has become a part of itself. So can we use this part of the body to make better equipment? Well...... The only thing I wonder about now is if there will be any strange side effects of equipment made from these cursed materials......"

With that, Arrow turned his head and glanced in the direction of the classroom. Now the cat is in the back of the class, and I guess it won't be possible to explain this kind of thing to myself for a while.

Coco tilted her head and thought about it, and said, "Hmm...... Brother President, although I don't have a lot of magical knowledge, I think that since this hooktooth rat has been purified by the holy bread magic stick, and can still maintain this appearance after the purification is completed, it should mean that this curse is only kept in the body of this hooktooth rat, right? If we don't eat it...... Should...... Nothing, right? ”

Arrow nodded, of course, not for Coco's magical knowledge, but for the joy that this little girl could finally use her poor magical knowledge to help herself.

It's just that it's not enough to fully trust her abilities, but in time, this kid should be able to become a necromancer on his own.

After gently rubbing the little girl's head, Arrow put on his gloves, nodded and said, "In that case, let's dissect this hooktooth rat." Well, hopefully there will be a little more useful parts. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the knife.

Truth be told, hook-toothed rats are easier to come to than corpse eaters. After all, its skin isn't as full of strong fibers as the Corpse Eater.

With the help of Coco's undead soldiers and skeleton dogs, Iero was able to easily rip off the ungrown spikes from its back and set it aside, while slicing open its belly.

Originally, Arrow thought that the moment he cut it open, he would see a lot of black and red stuff full of rotten stench gushing out of it. But when he really untied his stomach, the scene in front of him was not so bloody.

It's better to say that the clean ones are a bit excessive.

There are almost no soft organs left in the hooktooth's belly. Everything seemed very hard, as if the blocks were piled under this skin, and there was no moisture at all.

Removing these clotted internal organs and placing them aside, Arrow looked at it, and there was really no blood at all.

Of course, what was even more disappointing was that this hooktooth rat didn't even have a magic crystal in its body.

Sure enough, the condensation of the magic crystal is completely a matter of luck, and sometimes a small slime has a magic crystal in its body. Sometimes a big monster may not have it in its body.

It had taken about an hour for Eero to completely disassemble the hook-toothed rat's body.

He handed the clumps of entrails to Coco to feel and see if he could feel any magic on them. If you have one, you can make a magic gear or something.

But alas, Coco just shook her head and didn't gain anything.

In that case, Arrow could only look at the fur, bones, and teeth.

The hooktooth rat's skin didn't look that hard, after all, it was something that even a creamy fanged shortsword could pierce in one go. Although it can't be used for armor, it's fluffy and it's still feasible to make some boots for members in the winter.

As for the bones...... It's brittle and doesn't have much toughness.

When Arrow was almost on the verge of picking up the spikes that had not yet grown into a state of hope, a small change appeared before his eyes.

He picked up a piece of fur that still had some spikes that had not grown, but at this moment, the fur squirmed a little as if it was alive, and the spikes that had not yet grown also moved a little with it, revealing some again.

"Huh?"

Seeing this scene, Arrow was a little surprised. He hurriedly handed the fur to Coco: "What about this?" Is there magic on it? ”

Coco leaned over and sniffed it for a while, then nodded vigorously and said, "Yes!" Although it is very weak, there is a little bit of magic residue on it, congratulations to the elder brother! ”

Congratulations, I don't know how to use it yet.

Arrow smiled and flipped his fur over. I saw that the back of these spiky furs was full of pores, and there were some fine black hairs in these pores that were slowly wriggling. Especially when Arrow touched the black fur with his hand, the black hair immediately wrapped around his finger as if he was catching prey.

It's just that the strength of these fine hairs is so weak that Arrow can barely feel any obstacles to move his fingers away.

But it also gives Eero some hints. He went into the kitchen, took a piece of lard that had been left over from the cooking, and laid the fur on top of the lard.

Immediately, the black hairs were inserted into the lard as if they had received nutrients, and they were desperately absorbed. With the absorption of these black hairs, the spikes that have not yet grown are slowly piercing out of the fur. Soon, arrows like hook-toothed rats were formed!

After the spikes were formed, the black hairs no longer wriggled, and seemed to have eaten and drunk enough, ready to be launched at any time.

Arrow stepped forward, carefully picking up the fur and reaching out to try to tug at the spike.

Well...... It's quite sturdy, and you can't pick it off smoothly with your hands.

However, when Arrow aimed the spikes of the fur at the bulletin board and reached out to rub it among the black hairs below, he didn't know exactly which muscle he had touched......

Whoosh——!

There was only a soft sound, and the seven spikes growing on the fur immediately ejected and were nailed to the bulletin board.

"Ouch hey!"

Cream, who had just walked in, was startled, and bounced out like a spring and jumped out the door.

After a few seconds, he poked his head in through the door, looked at Arrow on this side with a nervous expression, and asked, "President, is there anything you can't talk about?" Is this what you can do? ”

Arrow smiled and glanced at fur again.

Once fired, the black fluff began to come alive again, trying to find food to form the arrows.

After basically sorting out the usefulness of this thing, Arrow put the fur in the storage box behind the counter and said, "Why did you come back so soon?" I think you seem to be on your way to Kingfisher Town to make deliveries, right? ”

Cream said helplessly: "Don't mention it! Now the road to the outside world is not smooth, and you can't get out at all! Don't talk about Kingfisher Town, I don't think I can even go to the Shining Forest. ”

Arrow was slightly stunned and walked out from behind the counter: "What's the situation?" ”

Cream snorted, sat down in a chair in the lounge area, and said, "God knows what kind of madness that Count Karp is going to have a parade in this area!" Accompanied by the mistress we saw last time. Hmph, I don't have to think about it, I can guess it, it must be that mistress who is really annoyed by being stuffed in the camp all day. You think, even if a beautiful girl with a beautiful face and moon looks like she can wronged herself to rely on that foolish earl, it will always be a little boring after a long time. So it's normal to think about going out and walking around. ”

Arrow originally thought it was a big deal, but now he was relieved after listening to it. He smiled and said, "Slow down, we always have other work to do." Anyway, that's our gold owner. ”

"I say, sir, if it weren't for the fact that he was our master, I would have really wanted to sneak into the camp in the middle of the night and give that Count Karp two slaps in the face. If you're cool, you'll be fine, can you just block our way? We also have to eat and work, and the client blames the client after the task entrustment time, and he bears it! ”

Seeing that Cream was full of resentment, Arrow could only continue to persuade him. He then beckoned Cream and Coco to help clean up the remains of the hooktoothed rat on the ground. Turn your head and get ready to continue with your guild business.

But before he could open the account book, he saw Brad running in from outside, panting. As soon as the big man saw Arrow, he immediately ran over very nervously and said loudly—

"President! Something's wrong, there's an accident! Those armies are starting to move! ”

Arrow nodded and said, "I know, it's time to start the parade, isn't it?" ”

"Cruise?" Brad was slightly stunned, but then shook his head, "It's not a parade!" I saw a large army marching towards the Eternal Sleep Mountains! They...... They're going to leave us behind and attack that gold mine themselves! “
