Chapter Eighty-Seven: Eighteen Star Chain
Bagan replied, "Not at all." I participated in one of them, and the entire mountain within a radius of dozens of miles was set up as a group hunting ground. Moreover, if the archer has a strong 'backing', the power of cold arrows at close range is equivalent to double, and it will be the opponent's turn to be in a dilemma. What's more, now we have two 'backings'?"
"The benefits of group hunting are directly proportional to the risks. Not only can we see the benefits of actual combat training, but we must also be fully prepared for the worst results. Qin Lan was still very pragmatic, reminded him, and said: "In that case, I will also participate in the group hunt! ”
Wu Xing pointed to his nose and sneered: "Can you also consider letting me join the group? I'm just Xingjun!"
Qin Lan pretended to be surprised and said: "You are already at least a thirteen-star chain, and Xiaotu's right hand is an eleven-star chain, and it is even inferior to you...... Wouldn't it be more appropriate for you to participate in the group hunt alone? I'm afraid that Xiaotu and I will drag you down!"
The selflessness shown in the "heritage" of Xiaotu Cave has won him the recognition of his peers, and Qin Lan is no longer as repulsive as he was at the beginning.
At this time, Xiaotu nodded seriously and echoed Qin Lan.
Bagan and Dota, one could see it, the other couldn't, and neither of them was silent.
"If the three of us form a group together, we have a ready-made advantage: no one else can master the 'Eight Sounds and Eight Paintings', and our tacit understanding must be the best. Wu Xing said lightly: "The strength between the three grades of Xingjun is not too different, and the role that tacit understanding can play in it is even more prominent. Why don't you two reluctantly accept me as a member?"
"It's okay to join, but the prizes and the like have to be divided equally among all three people. Qin Lan said straight to the point.
"Okay!" Wu Xing agreed.
"One more thing....... It's just that incident just now, how should we deal with it?" Qin Lan changed her words and asked another question.
Bagan and Dota looked at each other and shook their heads in unison, indicating that they didn't know anything about it.
"Just before entering the gate of the capital, the dragon armor of the 'Gale Array' and our three dragon armors ....... There is an echo. Wu Xing scratched his head and said, quietly glanced at Qin Lan and Xiaotu, and at the same time explained the origin of the dragon armor in the Spring and Autumn Period. When the assassin appeared, Duota chose to fight side by side with Wu Xing and the others, at least passing the preliminary test. Now revealing the matter about the dragon armor is a second test. As for the matter of the cave, the dark river, and the sealing of the instrument array, it is better to keep it secret for the time being.
"What we're worried about now is that every time we enter and exit the city gate, the 'Gale Array' will echo, which will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Star Venerable within the Array. After all, there should be very few Star Venerables who dare to unleash their sensing power arbitrarily in the capital and trigger the 'Gale Array'. You can't push Bagan out every time as a shield, right?" said Xiaotu.
"Then what do you think will be the worst outcome of this kind of thing?" Dota replied to himself: "It's nothing more than the loss of three pieces of dragon armor, right? If the government wants to requisition these three pieces of dragon armor as materials for the 'Gale Array', at least reasonable compensation will be given, otherwise who else will dare to come to the capital of the West Wind Country in the future? Aren't we going to be here to worry about it?"
Duota's thoughts are simple, and his explanation is also simple and intuitive, pointing to the core of the problem, Wu Xin and the others nodded secretly when they heard it.
"So, let's use those two 'leather armor' as usual. If someone asks, they will say that it was captured on the battlefield during the battle in Nameless County at that time, so it can be said that there is no way to find out. Wu Xing unified his voice, and the rest of the people nodded in agreement.
After the discussion, Wu Xing and the others first went to the Inner History Mansion and handled the landing of Wu Xing, Bagen, Duota, and Xiaotu, and then went to the Zheng family's house and the Shunfeng Dart Bureau respectively, so that everyone recognized the door. Then, the group parted ways according to the previous discussion, Wu Xing and Bagen went to the north of the city, and Qin Lan, Duota, and Xiaotu went to the south of the city.
Perhaps because of the immigration policy of the westerly country to the south, Taiwan has been out for a long time, and although many streets in the capital are bustling, there are also some streets and alleys that are empty, and few pedestrians enter or leave. According to Zheng Langzhong's introduction, the current population living in the capital of Zephyr is nearly 200,000, which is equivalent to the population of the other six countries. As for the scenery and humanities worth visiting inside and outside the city mentioned by Zheng Langzhong, Wu Xing and others can only choose a day.
At this time, there were still three days left before the lecture in the outer house of the West Wind Star Hall began.
Wu Xing found a room in the Zheng family's house with a sand table used to practice the inscription, and he was a little touched for a while.
Bagen excused himself to find the guide of the group hunt, and left the space for Wu Xing to be alone.
The Zheng family is worthy of being a three-star monarch, although the house is not big, only the main and guest books have a total of four rooms, but there is a separate quiet room on the side of the house, which is dedicated to Xingjun's meditation and cultivation. This kind of ashram is actually a small array, and it is said that the grade has reached the third grade. It is already an extremely rare thing to be able to have an instrument array in the capital without being demolished.
After condensing the star power activator array, it can isolate the inside and outside of the static room. Outsiders who want to enter the quiet room can only wait until the cultivation of the Star Monarch inside is completed, or it is okay to forcibly break the seal of the instrument array, then at least it must be the grade of the Star Venerable.
Wu Xing is now in the quiet room, and he has activated the instrument array, and he has to sort out what happened after the Heavenly Ladder Trial.
"What Bagen is most worried about is the little girl back then, six years old and six pins, did she start learning the inscription from her mother's womb?" Wu Xing said to himself: "As for that barbarian first-star martial ...... Even the pro-soldiers are Xingzun, and the difficulty of wanting to assassinate is not ordinary! The reason why Bagen is suddenly so interested in the downwind dart game is probably because of Qin Lan's bow...... If Qin Lan can be cultivated into a star bow in the Great Sound Realm, and coupled with a 'Eagle Eye' pattern, then the certainty of the stabbing will be much greater. At present, the whole team has entered the group hunt for actual combat training, in order to hone a tacit understanding as soon as possible, so as to become the most reliable backing around Qin Lan. ”
Wu Xing stretched out his right hand, summoned a small hammer, and muttered: "In the more than a month since I returned to White Horse Town from the front line of the Great Wall, the iron billet of the Stacking Wave Fist Nine Star Chain has completed the promotion to the grade of fine iron, which is about forty small hammers per day....... In the month and a half of going south to Bashu, Xiao Hammer can forge about sixty times a day on average. The iron billet of the Stacking Wave Fist Technique has reached the standard of 100 steel, and the part that acts as the leather strip of the armor has been cut....... After lighting up the Chang Gung star, the induction power increased extremely quickly, and in the month and a half of the history of the north to Gyeonggi, the small hammer was close to reaching an average of 100 hammers per day, and the iron billet had completed the grade of dark iron....... It's a pity that the "Wisher" exercise cannot be advanced to the realm of ascending to the hall before the round shield is repaired, and the size of this second iron billet can only stay at this stage for the time being. After there are enough parts of the star armor, the sledgehammer can be cultivated, and it seems that finding the third set of exercises will be a top priority, otherwise the star hammer can only fight empty every day, and there is no point at all...... Next, it's time to build my first Star Armor part. ”
Wu Xing took away the star hammer, meditated cross-legged, and soon entered a state of meditation and inward-looking.
Underneath the morning star is a sea of stars made up of eighteen stars. Wu Xing had asked Zheng Langzhong about the chain of left-nine-nine-ninety-eighteen stars before, it was not a cranky idea, but a fact!
In the past, Wentian would always appear at the right time, Wu Xing really wanted to ask about the cultivation of star soldiers at this time, but he couldn't find anyone else who asked Tian.
"The star armor parts are determined by the grade of the exercises...... The seventh, eighth, and ninth grade exercises are obtained by the cultivation of fist gloves, arm guards, combat boots, shin guards and other parts, and the parts obtained by the cultivation of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades are constantly improved on the basis of the half-body armor...... "Wu Xing muttered to himself, looking at the parts made of dozens of dark iron in front of him.
When the hammer is crafting star armor parts, it also has the function of participating objects. After a piece of star armor is recruited, it is formed, and the most important thing for Xingjun is "fit". Every piece of armor is obtained through thousands of tempers, and the realm of cultivation cannot all be Great Perfection, so the material and quantity of iron billets are limited.
There is still a difference between star armor and vacuum armor. The fact that the Star Armor parts do not cover the protected area does not mean that there is no protection ability, but it can transfer the received attack to the entire set of Star Armor. It can only be said that the more parts of the star armor, the higher the grade of the parts, the higher the protection ability.
Straight to the point.
The first batch of star armor parts created by Wu Xing can basically be seen to be a combination of two glove-like shapes, and the total number of large and small parts is probably more than a hundred: the parts that protect the fingertips are like pen covers, with four small holes at the end; the rest of the parts are all like hollow bamboo joints, and the finger knuckles can be passed through, with symmetrical small holes at both ends, and a total of eight holes in the upper and lower fours; and four parts close to the shape of the palm and back of the hand, and there are also small holes in the corresponding positions in each place. In addition, there are dozens or hundreds of hair-thick steel wires, which are used to connect those parts together.
These are the results of thousands of hammers since the formation of Wu Xing's small hammer!
Wu Xing held his breath and mobilized those parts.
