To put it simply, the mercenary level is divided into five levels, which are earth and rock, black iron, bronze, silver, and gold. The earth and rock level is the lowest, and the gold mercenary group is the highest. Initially, since the announcement was issued, all registered mercenary groups were of the earth and rock level. After that, if you want to advance to the Black Iron level, you need 10,000 points.

Points are earned by the mercenary team for completing tasks on a daily basis. One point is equivalent to ten catties of food stamps. 10,000 points is 100,000 catties of food stamps. Mercenary teams that complete tasks to earn bonus points can exchange points for food stamp crystal nuclei, and similarly, they can also exchange food stamp crystal nuclei for points.

In other words, as long as you have 100,000 catties of food stamps on hand, you can directly go through the mercenary association and upgrade the team level.

The higher the level, the more items and resources can be exchanged. Take the Black Iron level as an example, you can exchange heavy weapons from the Mercenary Guild, as well as high-quality armor produced by the Harvest Firm's in-house weapon foundry, and so on.

If you take out another 100,000 catties of food stamps and become a bronze-level mercenary group, you can exchange more item resources. For example, the domesticated hummingbird sentinels of the Harvest Firm, the biological defense armor that can withstand the attacks of Level 3 evolutionaries, and so on.

From the bronze level to the silver level, it only takes 10,000 points and 100,000 catties of food stamps to get it. When you reach the silver mercenary group, you can exchange more items and resources. For example, the powerful Ironwood Tree Man, the spirit urn refined by the boss of Li Ba, the elixir green radish fruit that can assist the third-level evolutionary to break through to the fourth-level, and so on.

These rare and precious items are very cheap to exchange, some only need one or two thousand points, in other words, only one or two thousand catties of food stamps. You know, take the green radish fruit as an example. In Jiangbei City, it is worth hundreds of thousands of catties of food stamps. And in the mercenary association, it is almost half cheaper!

This is also why Li Ba was almost stunned. Scolding Si Jiyue is the main reason for the ruins and rough girls!

Fortunately, the mercenary group has reached the silver level. Food stamps can no longer be redeemed for points. The only way to earn points is to complete the tasks issued by the association. The same goes for advancing to the Gold Mercenary Group.

As for the items that can be exchanged for gold-level mercenary groups, they are even rarer and rarer. There are top-level talismans refined by Li Ba himself, an elixir tricolor lotus that can assist fourth-level evolutionaries to break through to fifth-level, and mutant pythons whose strength is comparable to that of fourth-level evolutionaries.

No way!

These precious materials, Li Ba remembers, he didn't list them...... Today, the Mercenary Association has undergone a major overhaul. All the rough girls in the family took them out and sold them as exchange materials!

"Lao Zhou, our two mercenary groups are in alliance, first make up 300,000 catties of food stamps to directly upgrade your mercenary group to the silver level!" A bald man next to Li Ba began to think of bad ideas.

"Okay, when my mercenary group reaches the silver level, the two of us will join forces to do the task, and we will collect enough five thousand points to exchange it for an ironwood tree man for you first...... With this big guy, let's continue to cooperate and have no worries about points in the future. It's not a problem to exchange for the spirit pot refined by Lord Liba! Another bald man had a look of excitement and longing.

The real bald man Li Ba was listening, rolling his eyes.

For a moment, the hall was full of voices discussing alliances. Some mercenary teams that were weak and couldn't find allies began to pull people around to join the gang.

"Handsome guy. Interested in working with our Fairy Mercenary Group? ”

A female mercenary with freckles on her face actually found Li Ba.

"Not interested!" Li Bazheng was annoyed, how could he have time to deal with it. Not to mention. This freckles don't really look like fairies.

"Yo, look at you like that. thought that if he shaved his head, he was Lord Liba, and he was still pretending to be forced in front of his mother. Unwilling to cooperate to pull down! "The freckles that were rejected were obviously not happy. Some are angry.

A female mercenary next to her who looked like a flower unceremoniously began to attack herself, casting a contemptuous look at Li Ba: "Don't have a dead mouse in your waist and pretend to be a hunter, I'm sorry!" ”

They don't like this guy who is a copycat of their idol Li Ba, and they are still very tall!

Li Ba was so angry with these two 'dinosaur' girls that he couldn't cry or laugh, and he couldn't care about them, so he pinched his nose and left with his buttocks.

"Boss, you're out...... There are so many people that I didn't squeeze in just now! ”

When Li Ba came out, Liang Jie stood outside and waited, and when he saw him, he immediately greeted him.

"Go back!"

Li Ba only said these two words. He wants to go back to Si Jiyue, a loser, to settle accounts.

Seeing that the boss's face was not good-looking, Liang Jie didn't ask much. After that, the two prepared to return. At this moment, the intercom in Li Ba's arms rang. When I took it out, I saw that it was the boss of the Xue family calling.

Li Ba knew Boss Xue's personality, and he would never bother himself if he was fine, so he hurriedly connected: "Hey, big brother, is there something wrong?" ”

"Boss, the materials you gave me last time have been refined into finished armor, and the power is amazing...... If you have time, you can come to the factory as soon as possible! Boss Xue's excited words came from the other end of the intercom.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up, Li Ba was not in a hurry to go to Si Jiyue to settle accounts, anyway, the monk couldn't run to the temple, where the family was, this girl couldn't run. After that, he greeted Liang Jie and went directly to the Xue family's weapons foundry.

The fiery factory building.

The sound of hammer strikes came and went. Shirtless and shirtless men can be seen everywhere, sweating profusely, holding up a hammer and hitting the mold on the case.

With the expansion of business, the supply of weapons and armor exceeded the demand, and the Xue family foundry continued to expand its scale. First of all, in terms of personnel, nearly five hundred new workers, all of whom were power-type evolutionaries, entered the Xue family to engage in casting and ironmaking.

Although hot weapons are extremely powerful on the battlefield, the importance of cold weapons is irreplaceable. Especially in the development of biomaterials, the quality of cold weapon armor has been greatly improved, and the auxiliary effect on evolutionaries is even far greater than that of hot weapons!

Because of this, Li Ba has increased his investment in the Xue family foundry, both in terms of resources and manpower.

When Li Ba and Liang Jie arrived, Xue Xiaoquan was waiting at the gate of the factory. Mrs. Xue was entrusted on her deathbed, and the Xue family was the first force to join the Harvest Trading Company, so she also received the greatest trust and care from Li Ba.

Xue Xiaoquan is now an important figure in Fengshou Commercial Bank. He was in charge of all the supply of munitions to the merchant house and had great power in his hands.

"Boss."

Xue Xiaoquan greeted him with a spring breeze on his face. Subsequently, under his guidance. Let's walk into the factory together.

In the factory, except for the men who strike iron. It's a hot stove. But in the corner, there was a petite young girl. Like those rough men, he wielded a hammer and struck the weapon mold.

Ran Ying!

Since the military forces were expelled from Xibu City, she no longer hides in the shadows, and Zhengda Guangming has chosen the job she likes and cast weapons. It is rare for a girl to be interested in striking iron, although Li Ba was surprised, he was willing to fulfill it, and asked the Xue family to arrange for Ran Ying to work in the weapons foundry.

Of course, this is just Ran Ying's side hustle. Her main position is also the deputy head of the Dark Night Intelligence Group. When there is no important task, you will come to the armory foundry to study.

"Xiao Ying."

Li Ba walked over directly, saw Ran Ying, who was sweating profusely and even his clothes were soaked, and said with a smile: "If you continue like this, people will become rougher than the old men, beware of Xiaofeng disliking you!" ”

"He didn't dare!"

Ran Ying stopped what she was doing and replied with a smile, full of confidence.

"Xiao Ying is very talented in casting refining tools, and the boss has now officially accepted her as an apprentice. Teach me the Xue family's unique method of casting weapons. Xue Xiaoquan said with a smile on the side. He didn't know Ran Ying's true identity. Even within the Harvest Trading Bank, there are not many people who know that Ran Ying was once the shadow of the number one general under Long Sihai.

"Let's go! Come with me and see what the boss has come up with! ”

Li Ba greeted Ran Ying, and the group walked towards the back of the factory. Over there. There is a special weapon trial room for the Xue family. Boss Xue had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Li Ba coming, he didn't say much. dragged him into the trial room.

It was originally a warehouse remodel, and the yard was huge. Now. In front of a long table, there are steel plates that have been erected. There are 10 floors in total. Each plate is up to five centimeters thick.

On the table, there are seven or eight items such as bows and arrows, short swords, and daggers.

"Boss, you try this bow and arrow first."

Boss Xue picked up a longbow on the table, as well as arrows and handed them to Li Ba. Li Ba took it and took a closer look, the bow was made of bone, it looked heavy, but it didn't weigh much in his hand. The bowstring is made of thumb-thick tendons. As for the bow and arrow, it is also a bone material, and the arrow is sharp, revealing the cold and cold light of the forest.

"It's ...... Is it made of mutant anaconda material? Li Ba asked. A while ago, he transported back a large number of mutant anaconda corpses and handed them to the Xue family to make armor. Now it seems that the finished product has been produced.

"Not bad!"

Boss Xue nodded. couldn't suppress the excitement on his face, urging Li Ba to try the power of the bow and arrow.

Li Ba didn't ask much, took an arrow and drew a bow. Unexpectedly, the bowstring was so heavy that he couldn't pull it open all of a sudden.

Li Ba was a little embarrassed to lose face in front of his subordinates, and then, with all his strength, he finally pulled the bowstring full, and after that, he aimed at the steel plate in front of him and shot it.

"Whoosh!"

The bone arrow shot away, and it actually penetrated two layers of five-centimeter-thick steel plates in a row, and the remaining strength disappeared and fell to the ground.

"I'm Nima! This bow and arrow is probably even more powerful than a ballista! ”

Li Ba blurted out.

"This bow is made of three materials: cartilage, python tendons, and fine teeth in the lower jaw. It weighs twelve pounds, and it takes eight hundred pounds of strength to pull the bowstring. Within a kilometer, it can penetrate a steel plate ten centimeters thick, which is extremely powerful! Boss Xue gave a detailed introduction to his proud work.

"Good bow! Good arrows! ”

Li Ba was full of praise after hearing this. Later, he tried a dagger made of the upper jaw tusks of the mutant anaconda, and the power was quite amazing. There is also a close-fitting soft armor made of mutant anaconda skin tanning, which has an even more magical effect, which can not only resist the attacks of fourth-level evolutionaries, but also has great elasticity. Even if it is possessed by a stone ability, the transformation will not be broken.

"With the existing materials, how much can this soft armor do?" Li Ba asked. The soft armor made of mutant python skin has much stronger qualities than the special operations suit made of giant cocoon material. If it can be equipped in large quantities, it can play a key role on the battlefield.

"At least 10,000 pieces!"

Boss Xue gave this number. On the same day, five or six hundred mutated anaconda carcasses were transported back, each of which was huge, and it was more than enough to produce 10,000 pieces of python skin soft armor.

"Good!"

Li Ba was very happy when he heard this. Tell Boss Xue to send someone to hurry up as soon as possible to make this batch of python skin soft armor. After that, he looked along the long table, and there were four wooden boxes on the table.

"It's ......," he looked at Boss Xue.

Boss Xue smiled, and two words popped out between his teeth: "Divine soldier!" ”

Xue Xiaoquan added with a smile on the side: "Specifically, it is four divine weapons refined from the golden Jiao's body material!" ”

When Li Ba heard this, his interest came. (To be continued......)
