Chapter 22: Catwoman
Lin Yue asked carefully on the east road, and learned that there was a god-level forging master in the Exorcist Alliance, who had created a lot of useful equipment and sold it to the superpowers who came. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info this place of sale, so it is commonly known as an equipment store.
As for what kind of ability this forging master has to be called god-level......
"You've seen that wooden box with Guns Rose, right?" Pyro asked.
"I've seen it, it's a great design." Lin Yuedong replied.
"That's what this god-level blacksmith designed and built." Pyro said with some pride.
"Wow! That's really amazing, it's really god-level. Lin Yuedong exclaimed. Being able to create a weapon that can transform between a Gatling gun and a laser cannon in this era is definitely a black technology among black technologies, and it is a grievance to say that it is powerful.
"Can I buy such a powerful weapon in the equipment store?" He asked, expectantly.
"That's not good, this kind of weapon is specially created by that master, it requires a lot of materials and energy, and it is not something that is sold casually in the store. However, although the things sold there are not as good as the gun boxes of Guns N' Roses, they are still very good. Pyro winked at him, "If you have enough money to buy it." β
Lin Yuedong collected all the things on his body that could be used as money: "Uh, I have six soul stones and such a small bag of diamonds here, is it enough?" β
Pyro looked at the small bag of diamonds with a dull face: "Enough, definitely enough...... God, you've got enough money to buy an entire gear store. β
"Then I'll be relieved." Lin Yuedong put away the diamond, "But what I'm more curious about is how to buy equipment like the gun box of the Gun Rose?" I think that might have helped me even more. β
"Well, it depends on what the master smith means." Pyro, "He has made a rule that anyone who wants him to design and build equipment must complete a condition he has given. The conditions he gave were different each time, and the only thing they had in common was that they were all very difficult. If you really want him to build gear, you'll have to be prepared. To tell you the truth, several people in the alliance are stuck on his condition, and they can't complete it for a long time, and they are still having a headache for more than a year. β
"It's so hard...... I'll ask him about his conditions first, and maybe I'll be able to complete it. Even if it doesn't work, it's a big deal not to do it. Lin Yuedong looked very open. He's not particularly reliant on equipment, so he's not happy.
"I'll ask for you. The ease with which the master does not see outsiders may be the quirk of a technical expert. Pyro said.
"Well, then please. - Where is this equipment store? Lin Yuedong saw that Pyro had no intention of going downstairs and asked.
"Right here." Pyro gestured to the door in front of him.
The two pushed open the door and entered, only to see that it was a large room, with several rows of wooden shelves erected, and all kinds of equipment piled up on them, such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, shields, armor, bullets, pistols, steam cylinders, heart guards, and everything that looked all-encompassing.
It's just that after Lin Yuedong took a closer look, he found that there were really not many things he could use here. The steam gun is not as good as the sand eagle python in his hand, the sword, gun and sword halberd can't be used by himself, the armor and shield will only drag down his actions, and the pair of stabbing gloves that he can see the most are not conducive to releasing the cold from his hands after wearing them......
In the end, under the strong recommendation of the Pyro, he bought a set of leather pants that are said to be in the hands of everyone in the Exorcist League, which are made of Kabane's hard heart membrane, covered with traditional leather, sewn in a special way, with both toughness and flexibility, which can effectively improve their own defense ability.
Acting as a salesperson is naturally a Pyro again, which gives Lin Yuedong the illusion that Pyro is a full-time chorre in the alliance.
After buying the things, the Pyro asked Lin Yuedong to sit on the first floor for a while, and then went to the master's underground studio to ask about the conditions. The two parted at the staircase on the first floor, Pyro continued to walk down, and Lin Yuedong returned to the bar.
At this time, by the bar, Blue Knife, Nameless and Ikoma have disappeared, and the Ice Girl is still in the bar, and there is a girl wearing cat ears, cat's claw gloves/foot covers on her hands and feet, and a cat tail behind her.
β¦β¦ cosplayοΌ
"Hello, I'm Lin Yuedong, a newcomer to the alliance." Lin Yuedong greeted the girl.
"Don't get close to me." The girl didn't look at him and said coldly.
β¦β¦ Well, it seems to be another cold guy.
Lin Yuedong didn't want to put a hot face on the cold buttocks, so he stopped caring with the girl, turned to the ice girl and asked, "Where did they go with the blue knife?" β
"Outside." The Ice Girl said succinctly.
"You're really idle...... However, it is understandable that after all, it is a new city. Give me a glass of ale. Lin Yuedong said with a smile.
The Ice Girl gave a soft "um" in agreement, and then poured Lin Yuedong a glass of wine and put it in front of him.
The ice girl is as silent as ever, and the cat's paw girl doesn't know what's wrong and doesn't say a word, and the atmosphere between the three of them is very dull.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yuedong thought about the plan. On July 8th, the Amatori Mima will enter the Ubunei Station, and then she will be able to know who will deliver the parcel and try to deliver it.
If the package was for Ikoma or Nameless, or someone in the city where Mima was located, or even someone in Kongoli, it would be fine. I'm afraid that it was given to Calamus or Jiuzhi to live in, and then these two people were killed by the black-robed man, then it would be troublesome.
When the time comes, I can only hope to forcibly correct the plot and see if I can get out.
Lin Yuedong was pondering, and the Pyro had already walked over.
"Lin Yuedong, I have to inform you of an unfortunate news." He looked a little regretful and said, "The conditions that the master gave you are very difficult, and it is almost impossible to do it. β
"What are the conditions so difficult?" Lin Yuedong asked.
"Give me an idea of how to add superpowers to your equipment." Pyro said and shook his head, "This idea has been thought about by the Master for two whole years, since he saw someone wielding a weapon that can emit flames two years ago, he has been thinking about how to make the equipment have fire-breathing or water-discharging or some other special function...... But how is this possible? β
"You mean, he wants to add superpowers to his equipment? Like our superpowers? Lin Yuedong confirmed.
"yes, but that's impossible. After all, equipment is a dead thing, and superpowers are things that only living people can know, if equipment can be attached to superpowers, then what do we need to do? Pyro complained.
That is, enchanting equipment. Lin Yue thought to himself. This requirement can be said to be actually not difficult, but it looks a little troublesome in the context of this technological side world, if it is a magic side world, enchantment is just the most basic forging requirement.
However, this is not out of the question. He has never seen how the enchantment of the magic side world is done, but he has seen the equipment of the technology side world with superpowers, although it is only on the drawings.
When he left the Soundnest, he swept through a large amount of technical data, including drawings of a piece of equipment that was still under development. The purpose of this equipment was to assist the test subjects of Kyo Kusanagi's program in controlling the flames on their bodies so that they would not burn themselves to death. Among the design ideas, this included the use of anti K' factors on equipment to suppress flames.
This kind of equipment is finished in the KOF2002UM, replacing the gloves on the hands of Nameless, who appeared in K9999, which was cut off due to copyright issues!
Nameless is also the finished product of the K-series project, and is from the same background as the K9430, and among the many test subjects, it is the only one whose strength has reached the level of a regular fighter. The Sound Nest made a glove with anti K' factor for him to help him control his flames.
Around his gloves, there's also a love story with a bleak ending, but that's not the point. The point is that Yinchao has indeed developed such equipment, and Lin Yuedong happened to have studied the relevant information.
After buying the factory through the Xia family, he immediately wanted to make this kind of glove to help him improve his combat level, and discussed it with some scientific and technological personnel recruited by the factory. As a result, after reading it, those researchers said that it was the product of the boss's second disease, and stated that there was absolutely no such thing as anti K' factor in reality, which strongly blocked his idea of putting it into production.
Well, it is indeed impossible for Lin Yuedong to slice himself to those people to study what the anti K' factor is, so he can only put it on hold for the time being. But in this world, it may just come in handy.
"I might have a way, but I'll have to think about it." Lin Yuedong said.
Pyro's face was surprised, and before he could speak, the cat's paw girl next to him suddenly sneered: "You have a way?" Haha, stop teasing me. How could you possibly have a way? The master has been studying this question for two years and has not come up with it, and you dare to say that there is a way to do it two seconds after you heard it? Don't blow the cowhide too much, it will be broken when the time comes, and the face will not look good! β
"Huh? Is there anything I can do about you? Lin Yuedong replied a little strangely. It's just a cold face just now, maybe it's a bad mood, what is this sarcasm doing now? Nothing to do?
"Hmph, it's none of my business. But they're all from the Alliance, and I don't want to be with this kind of big talker, I can't afford to lose that person! Catwoman said disdainfully.
"Where have I offended you? You are finding fault with me for no reason, what are you trying to do? β
Lin Yuedong was inexplicably scolded, and he was really a little unhappy in his heart, and said in a stiff tone.
Pyro hurriedly stopped him and persuaded, "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, don't be like her." - Catwoman, why do you talk like that? Why don't you apologize to Lin Yuedong quickly? β
Catwoman snorted her neck: "What are you sorry for?" Allow him to brag, and don't allow me to expose it? I'm the most annoying guy who just comes with his mouth open for this kind of nonsense! If he admits that he can't do it now, forget it, otherwise, don't blame me for scolding him! β
"You...... Looks like you're not going to be reasonable. It doesn't matter, there are unreasonable ways to be unreasonable - if you have the ability, you can beat me out of this bar, or I will beat you out! Lin Yuedong was impatient. Any cat or dog dares to come to him for trouble, just to try the results of his strengthening.
"Don't don't, don't fight, don't fight, they're all their own brothers, and harmony is precious." Pyro stood between the two of them, and persuaded with some weakness.
"Hmph, if you are poked, you are angry and want to beat someone? Phew! Catwoman spat on the ground, "If you have the ability, don't brag, otherwise, don't appear in front of me!" - Pyro, I'm in a bad mood today, I'll report to you another day. β
After saying that, Catwoman "snorted" again, twisted the cat's steps and turned to leave the bar.
"What's wrong with this man? Do you usually have nothing to find fault with? It's a shame she's alive until now. Lin Yuedong pointed to Catwoman and said dissatisfiedly.
"Not really." Flame smiled bitterly, "Actually, it was your words that stimulated her. Remember when I said that there are people in the alliance who have been agonizing about the conditions of the master for more than a year? That's her. She had always wanted to ask the master to help her forge a piece of equipment, but she couldn't meet the conditions for life or death. If you open your mouth now and say that you can handle it, she must feel uncomfortable. β
"I see...... This is obviously her own incompetence, she came to me for trouble, and her strength is also very small. Lin Yuedong said.
"Usually she is not like this, I guess I encountered some setbacks when I went out this time. No way, you're a man, just take care of it more, thank you. Pyro persuaded.
Lin Yuedong didn't want to dwell on it either: "Okay, since you said so." Find me an ashram, with pen and paper, and when I finish the conditions, let her come and apologize to me, isn't that too much to ask? β
Pyro agreed: "It's not too much, it's very reasonable, it's up to me." You're going to have to do it, I'd love to see what that gear looks like. β
"Wrap it up on me!" Lin Yuedong said confidently.
