It is worth mentioning that because of the abundance of food, Xiao An grows as fast as spring grass.

It was already able to open its eyes a few days ago, its pale brownish yellow eyes shone with an amber-like luster, it was pleasing to the eye, and the level was still level 0, but it shared 20% of the experience with Tang Ruiyi, and I believe that it would be able to participate in the battle after a few more battles.

However, it was not completely without bad news, Tang Ruiyi looked at the huge corpse of the granite cockroach with a headache.

This guy is so big that even if he is cut into materials, he can't take it all away.

In the end, all I could barely take away was a sprayed stomach pouch and a dozen compound eyes, and there was really no place to put the rest of the carapace.

However, before leaving, Tang Ruiyi still decided to use the waste.

He thought.

Since the carapace of the granite cockroach is so hard, why not use it as a material to make a few sets of equipment? Even if it's rough.

Here we have to talk about the importance of crafting equipment: for example, if you want to make a sword, you first need enough raw materials, such as iron ore, copper ore and other materials, and then you need to use skills to turn these materials into qualified finished products, which requires the use of a variety of skills, fill the skill column with "blacksmithing" or "smelting", and use "sword crafting method" in the method column.

In addition, there are three additional auxiliary columns, compared to the skill column auxiliary column is much more casual, you can use any skills such as "gem setting", "carving", "blessing", etc., and the more advanced the skills and methods used, the more, the more reasonable, the stronger the sword made, on the other hand, the properties of the material also determine the final result, just like the most clever forging master can not take a piece of scrap iron out of the magic weapon early, the final result is nothing more than to create a less wasteful sword.

There were a lot of crafting drawings on the road, including a "Barbed Arrow Casting Method", which requires level 3 to deal extra bleeding damage to the target, and he didn't care too much about it because he didn't have the right materials.

Now you can test it with the carapace of a granite cockroach!

He put the smelting technique in the slot, referring to the "Barbed Arrow Casting Method" and added "carving", "piercing arrow" and "gathering technique" to the auxiliary slot, and then put a large piece of carapace in front of him to activate the skill.

System Prompt: [Forging failed, material scrapped, smelting proficiency +1]

Failed the first time, but it's okay, come again!

This time, Tang Ruiyi replaced the "Gathering Technique" with the "Cutting Technique" and activated the skill again.

[Congratulations, forging successfully, obtaining "Twisted Barbed Arrow", Alchemy Mastery +5]

[Twisted Barbed Arrow: Level 4 required, Attack -2, Bleed damage to the target for 12 damage]

Garbage, the level requirement increases, and the attack damage is reduced, which is useless at all.

However, Tang Ruiyi was not discouraged, and kept trying possible methods like an old monk who had settled down.

[Congratulations, forge successfully, get "Broken Barbed Arrow", Smelting Proficiency +3]

[Forging failed, material scrapped, smelting proficiency +1]

[Forging failed, material scrapped, smelting proficiency +1]

[Congratulations, successful forging, obtaining "Strange Long Stick", Alchemy Mastery +4]

............

As the initial exploration stage passed, Tang Ruiyi gradually found several reasonable matching methods, and the success rate began to rise.

[Forging failed, material scrapped, smelting proficiency +1]

[Successfully forged, obtain "Barbed Arrow with Poor Balance", Alchemy Mastery +8]

[Successfully forged, obtain "Inferior Barbed Arrow", Alchemy proficiency +6]

............

Finally, the ideal product is finally born!

[Balanced Barb Arrow, Level 4, Attack +3, Bleed Damage for 26 damage to the target]

Because of technical limitations, it's already very good to do this, in the previous battle, because the level of Victoria's archers was too low, they couldn't break the defense of the granite cockroach, and it was also tickling to send it, so they could only watch the battle from a distance, but if this kind of arrow was equipped at the time, then the situation would be completely different, and it could completely rely on bleeding damage to bypass the defense and directly supply the interior!

Since the carapace has a purpose, Tang Ruiyi immediately thought that other materials should also be possible.

For example, the spores of the mushroom people should be able to be used to make poison and apply to arrowheads, and the power must be a notch higher than the current one.

And the corrosive liquid in the stomach pouch of the weird giant mushroom may also be made into a one-time consumable.

After finishing the decomposition of the huge corpse, Tang Ruiyi seems to have found a new direction, and in the case of his combat power being limited to level 10, he can rely on various production skills to continuously grow and improve himself.

Heaven did not give human beings a strong physique like a maned lion, nor did they have the ability to soar into the sky, but the ancestors of human beings relied on wisdom and perseverance to carve out a place in the primitive wilderness, and Tang Ruiyi firmly believed that he would not lose to those so-called "maned lion eagles"!

When everyone is almost rested, it's time for everyone to continue on their way.

............

Unbeknownst to anyone, less than half a mile away, in the rock-pillared and sand-covered wilderness, a group of staggering, yellow-skinned refugees were on the run, followed by a group of well-armed lizard riders.

Dressed in brown leather armor and domed iron helmets, these lizard riders rode two-meter-long sand lizards, occasionally pulling out a spear to impale the slowest running refugee.

The lizard riders' chase looks more like a game of cat and mouse, with a burst of excited laughter every time a refugee stumbles to the ground with too much blood.

"Could it really be that God will kill me, I really didn't expect that I, Sarcolo Botu, would die here!"

A strong man in a tattered cloak and chain mail stopped in the refugee procession, and with his mournful glance he glanced at the endless wilderness, knowing that the day was over.

It's just that he is not reconciled! He finally escaped from the heavily guarded King Rusaiyan, but he was chased and intercepted by his former disciples and friends, he hated Emperor Rusaiyan, hated those greedy accomplices, and he still wanted to see ...... I was born as a full moon daughter!

Thinking of his daughter, Sarcolo's heart felt like a hand was clutching him, and he felt suffocated.

Perhaps, I can surrender......?

No, how could I betray the people of the Northlands, they trusted me so much, they depended on me.

Sallock glanced around at the wounded but fanatical soldiers around him, they were the bravest warriors in the North, good men who had dedicated their lives to the cause of just liberation, how could he betray these heroes!

It's just that...... Sarlock knew very well that he could not defeat the heavily armed lizard rider with blood and fearlessness, and that the end result would be nothing more than two - a painful death or a neat death.

"Ahhhh

Sallock was suffering from endless pain in his heart, and he casually looked at it, and found that it was full of blinding bright red, and he turned back angrily to find a lizard rider unabashedly sneering, attracting his companions around him to pander.

No, everything in front of him became more and more blurry, and he became weaker and weaker under the dual effects of intense blood loss and poison, and gradually his legs were as heavy as lead.

"Haha, that's the famous rebel leader, what does it seem to be called...... Sarcolò, it doesn't seem like a big deal, it's not like we're being chased away. One of the lizard riders said, his tone full of triumphant disdain.

At this time, a rider leader wearing a cloak next to him snorted coldly, "Hmph, lonely and unheard, if it weren't for this guy's poisoning and fatigue from a long battle, would you believe it or not, relying on his strength as a protector of the country, one person would be able to kill us all!." ”

After being reprimanded, the lizard rider was obviously a little annoyed, but because the leader had been accumulating power for a long time, he had to nod stupidly.

The leader had the privilege of seeing these warriors slaughtering in front of him on the battlefield, and at that time he was just a rookie, hiding in the pottery building and shivering, but he still left an indelible impression on him.

As a soldier, he respects each other, but his current identity is nothing more than a group of "robbers he encounters", so he can no longer hold back the greed in his heart, as if he sees a large bag of gold coins and a beautiful woman who is so tender that she plucks out of the water beckoning to him.

Suddenly, the leader felt his body tilt, but the sand lizard under his knees suddenly stopped and leaned over.

"What's going on!" the leader noticed that not only himself, but also the other lizard riders' mounts had the same reaction.

A trace of ominousness quietly lingered in everyone's hearts.

Hiss!

The lizard under its crotch became more and more irritable and abnormal, and everyone's attention was drawn to the vision in the distant swamp.

"Like, the earth is trembling?" a timid rider's teeth were already chattering, it was the famous dangerous Swamp! Although there was still some distance to go, the terrible legends and secrets about the Swamp had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"Roar, Roar, Roar, !!Roar, Roar, Roar, Roar, T

A terrifying roar sounded! The furiousness in the lizard's eyes immediately turned into horror, completely ignoring the crazy whipping of its master, and turned to run!

"Stop! Damn brute! Stop!"

The leader cursed incessantly, brandishing his whip to drive away the sand lizards, but to little avail.

"Damn it, come down quickly, kill all the rebels on foot! this is the order!" the leader became more and more uneasy, and in case the night was long, he immediately ordered.

He brandished his spear and shouted, "There are thirty of us!" Kill them quickly, and those who behead them will be rewarded with 400 silver coins!

With a maddening bounty on one side and a gallows and butcher's knife on the other, the remaining riders immediately threw off their mounts and strode towards the refugees.

However, when the riders drew their short swords at their waists and were about to set off a slaughter, suddenly on the yellow horizon in the distance, black shadows engulfed everything like a tide!

Bang dang!

The dagger of one of the horsemen fell to the ground with a crisp thud.

The earth is beating along the pulse, roaring!

As the shadows spread across the land, louder earthquakes were heard, accompanied by a myriad of sparse sounds that chilled.

"Oh my God! yes, it's a demon worm!"

"This ...... How could there be so many!"

"It's over, we're dead, woo woo, I don't want to die yet!"

The desert lizard was gone, leaving the desperate rider to murmur in place.

When I got close enough, I realized that there was any tide, and it was a black insect tide composed of countless giant beetles!

Countless mistletoe trees, low shrubs, and hard boulders were all wiped out in front of this black storm of insects!

Not only did the riders open their mouths wide, but even the refugees fell into a trance.

What's even more unbelievable is that just in front of this natural disaster insect tide, there are still a few small black dots escaping!
