Xia Yu didn't know how popular this spot was, and naturally he didn't know that Director Fang had taken a fancy to his potential investment.

But this opportunity is really good.

In the entire Federation, any Mechanic who has reached 3 stars has a certain strength and status, and they are more well-connected and wealthy than Mechanic Monks of the same rank.

But it's not easy to become a 3-star mechanic.

Except for those children of big families, the best choice for people from ordinary backgrounds is to be admitted to those high-ranking colleges and universities in the Federation, and their goals are to cultivate 3-star powerhouses.

But how can colleges and universities be so easy to enter?

Thousands of troops and horses crowded the single-plank bridge, and it was difficult for many people to break through with their heads broken and bleeding.

In addition, there is an age limit of 18 years old in general colleges and universities, and even if the talent is good, even if the talent is good, it will not be able to reach this standard before the age of 18 without sufficient training in the early years.

At least Xia Yu himself and Qiangzi missed this age, and it is difficult to pass the entrance examination with their current strength estimates.

In this way, the opportunity to get guidance from a 3-star or higher mechanic becomes extremely precious.

After more than 20 days of pondering and practicing, Xia Yu felt that his progress had slowed down significantly.

The practice of making the source box is also skilled, and the physical skills are also slowly improving, but the growth of the understanding and even perception of the source array is too slow.

Although he goes to Tianxin Club every few days and gives out some of the confusion and questions he encounters through points rewards, and also gets some answers, what he lacks most is the direction of growth and a systematic knowledge structure.

With a huge secret hidden in his heart, coupled with a lingering sense of crisis, Xia Yu quickly made a decision.

Early the next morning, he took a new batch of "Wedge No. 2" source boxes to find Chen Mingde.

"Mr. Xia, you're here!"

After Chen Mingde received Xia Yu's summons, he made a special trip to wait for him, arranged for someone to take over the source boxes, and said to Xia Yu: "It's inconvenient to talk about it in detail in the source machine, by the way, have you had lunch, do you want us to chat while eating?"

Xia Yu nodded: "It's okay, thanks to Steward Chen's constant care, then give me a chance to be the east!"

Chen Mingde is really good to himself.

In addition to the smooth negotiation of cooperation, Xia Yu came to the club several times later, and also met several middle-level apprentices with a good level, all of whom were contracted producers of Tianxin.

But if you want to see Chen Mingde, the chief steward who controls their livelihood, you have to wait for a long time every time.

Jinbao Street is super prosperous, and there are many specialty restaurants.

He followed Chen Mingde left and right to an inconspicuous small shop, and when he entered, he saw that the environment was very elegant, because the price was too high, and there were not many people.

This shop focuses on dishes made from wild beasts and even some fierce beasts, frying, roasting, and stewing, but there is no fixed menu, and the cooperative monk group can do whatever it sends, and the price of each dish is naturally expensive.

Chen Mingde knew that this young man was not short of this money, so he was not polite to him, and saw that there were wild ducks and cold scarlet fish on the handwritten material list, so he immediately called the guy: "Come, steamed cold scarlet fish, this wild duck tongue is fried alone, and the other parts are stewed in the pot, and then two side dishes are served casually." By the way, Mr. Xia, what kind of wine do you drink?"

Xia Yu looked at him as a familiar look, and seemed to be a regular customer of this house, and replied: "Feel free to come to the fruit bar!" By the way, Manager Chen, you are an elder, or call me Xia Yu." ”

"Cheng, it's good for this blue barley wine!" Chen Mingde waved his hand to get ready, turned to Xia Yu and smiled: "Ha, then you can also call me Brother Chen." Let me tell you about this time. ”

"Brother Chen, please speak. ”

"Speaking of which, Master Qu is also the number of organ masters in Tianxin, and he is also quite prestigious among all the 3-star machine masters in Luo Tong. Master Qu had only one official disciple before, and a few years ago he was killed by a group of fierce beasts when he was going out with a group of monks, and he didn't accept any more apprentices in the past few years, so he looked for some assistants in Tianxin, but occasionally gave some guidance. ”

"Well, what fields is Master Qu good at?"

Xia Yu is more concerned about this, after all, the mechanism technique is too complicated, and all the mechanism masters will have some specialization.

"Energy compression and storage, Master Qu is at the top of Luo Tong in this field, and he is not weak in other aspects. Speaking of which, even though Master Qu is almost seventy years old, his accumulation is profound, and the chance of breaking through 4 stars is still quite high, which is why it has attracted so many people's attention. ”

Xia Yu nodded, 4-star machine master, I'm afraid there are not many Luo Tong in the whole place.

Only in Tieyuan City, where the headquarters of the Organ Association is located, it is common for mechanics to reach 4 stars, and even among the top city-states of the Federation, they are also highly respected masters.

In fact, when the mechanism of this world reaches 3 stars, it begins to go beyond the scope of ordinary machinery on the earth, and all kinds of unbelievable effects appear.

2-star top-level mechanisms like Swordfish Kill and "Dawn Sun" are all magical and expensive because they have a 3-star structure on their source array, but they can be used by 2-star ordinary people.

Among the 3-star organs, a big category is the pure source energy mechanism, and Cui Dalong and Mrs. Huang had such pure energy protection weapons.

Chen Mingde looked at Xia Yu pondering, and then said: "Haha, Brother Xia doesn't need to think about it, as long as you can be selected as Master Qu's assistant and get some guidance at will, you may get more than your high reward in the club." It's just that this recruitment assessment is not easy. It's better for your brother to be mentally prepared. ”

"Oh, is there still any trickery in this assessment?" Xia Yu was already moved, and asked busily.

Chen Mingde frowned slightly and said, "I heard the rumors, Master Qu is likely to have the intention to recruit disciples this time, and many of the high-level members of the group and even some children of other families in the city will participate." Of course, the most important thing for him at the moment is to complete a new design and bid for a big project, and the disciple's affairs should be on the back burner, so it is most important to become his assistant first. ”

"Understood, by the way, does my brother know what the main aspects of the assessment are?"

"This is nothing, it's nothing more than the two categories of perception and source array understanding, Master Qu tends to theoretical research, and even the production of the source box doesn't pay much attention to it. Well, you should have practiced swordfish killing, right? This must be used to test perception, and as for the understanding of the source array, I don't know very well. ”

Oh, and the swordfish kill?

It's kind of interesting.

At this time, the guy had already brought the food to the table, and the two began to feast.

"Zizi, this fish is really authentic!" Chen Mingde slowly added a piece of cold scarlet fish meat, put it in his mouth and slowly smacked it, and praised it comfortably.

"Ha, Brother Chen will choose a place, this fried duck tongue is really a must, today is Brother Chen's blessing!" Xia Yu is essentially a 28-year-old person after all, and he quickly adapted to the way he communicates with adults.

He put a piece of duck tongue that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and gently dropped his teeth, and suddenly felt that his taste buds were opened, a fragrance penetrated his heart and spleen, and even a faint trace of imperceptible energy flowed into his body.

As the greatest enemy of mankind, in addition to the danger it brings, its value has long been exploited by people.

In addition to some special muscles, bones and fur are good organ materials, the flesh and blood of many fierce beasts are also treasures, such as some beast blood can be used to refine medicine, and most of the animal meat is edible, and eating it often can improve the physique of the human body.

After all, the special talents of the ferocious beasts allowed them to use source energy by nature, and their physical functions began to slowly mutate.

It is said that there are also some mechanics who can use certain special plants in the jungle to make wine, and can also slightly improve people's physical functions.

In this inconspicuous restaurant, the ingredients are all 3-star fierce beasts or some rare second-level beasts, which are naturally expensive, and this duck tongue has a total of more than ten pieces of meat, but it costs more than 800 euros.

It was the first time Xia Yu had eaten like this, and he only felt refreshed.

It's worth the money!

He plans to send more to his sister in the future.

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

"Master Qu, the list is already complete, can you take a look?"

In an antique lounge, a seductive woman in her early 30s stood, handing over a beautiful list.

"It's hard work. Qu Bailing took the list, glanced at it, frowned slightly at those familiar names, and sighed lightly: "These little guys are really good, why do you want to come to me to help!"

Qu Bailing is about to be seventy years old, and his hair is slightly pale, but his face is ruddy and energetic, and he is not the slightest bit old.

In this world, because of the source energy, people's life expectancy is generally more than 80 years old, and it is not uncommon for people to be 100 years old.

And if the perception level reaches level 3 or above, the body functions are constantly warmed and moisturized, and you will live longer.

The legendary number one powerhouse of the Federation, the Yuan Lord, has reached six stars, and he is afraid that he has lived nearly 200 years old - although it is just a legend, some people say that there are always more than 150 - and he has built Tieyuan City into the first male city in the mainland. The prestige of the Yuan Lord, the entire continent can only be compared with the Manhun Emperor on the side of the empire.

The bewitching woman smiled: "Master Qu said it, Gongzi An, they naturally admire your talents." Give you a hand, you just need to say a few words at will, and it will be enough for them to benefit a lot!" Seeing Qu Bailing's brows furrowed slightly, he hurriedly asked, "What does the master think is wrong?"

Qu Bailing sighed secretly, since he cooperated with Tianxin, it was inevitable that these families behind Tianxin Group would arrange for their children to come over, and he would not be able to stop this kind of thing.

As long as he doesn't count those straw bales, he won't say anything.

Besides, there are still three CDs on this list that I haven't heard of, and I don't have much impression when I look at the brief introduction, so I think it should be someone from the folk or other families.

I hope that among these people, there are a few materials that can be made.

He closed the list and said lightly: "It's nothing, this bidding is very important, I just have a direction, the center of gravity is still here, but it's hard for these little guys." ”
