0103 The bigger the stronger

The Rune Refiner took three steps back, apparently to indicate that his work was over.

Now it was originally the time when the [Palace Puncher] and the [Rune Appraiser] appeared, and they didn't dare to ask why the two were sent away in advance.

I thought that the scene would freeze, but Li Li took the [Diamond Pickaxe] to a [Silver Square Breastplate] and began to carve it according to the prismatic outline of the [Level 4 Rune - Surging Life].

The [Rune Refiner] was immediately stunned, because this was without any planning, so he started to open the hole.

If the hole is small, then squeezing it hard will easily damage the rune, and even break and damage it in serious cases.

If the hole is too big and the runes can't be embedded at all, then let alone participating in the battle, even when wearing it daily, the runes are at risk of falling.

Bite! Bite! ...

Li Li didn't care what kind of expression the [Rune Refiner] was, he just held the mine pickaxe and kept hitting the [Silver Cube Breastplate] with the sharp part.

And the strength and speed, with the improvement of the skill of [Equipment Punching], are also increasing little by little.

Five minutes passed, and a very regular prismatic rune slot appeared in front of me.

The [Rune Refiner] lifted the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose with a look of disbelief.

Li Li picked up the [Level 4 Rune—Surging Life], gently placed it in the groove on the front of the breastplate, and dived into it seamlessly.

"Level 4 runes only have a 6.2% increase in health, which is really a bit small."

After Li Li observed for a while, who made an evaluation.

"Can you still assert the attributes of the runes?"

The Rune Refiner was shocked.

"Well, guess whatever."

After Li Li finished speaking, he raised the mine pickaxe and prepared to take a second bite on the breastplate.

Following the arrangement of 212 from top to bottom, he felt that a breastplate could have at least 5 rune holes on the front.

Open 5 more on the back, so that even if the 10 rune holes are filled with level 4 life runes, they can still have 62% health.

In this way, the survivability can be said to have been greatly improved.

However, before he could land the pickaxe, he was stopped by the [Rune Refiner].

"My lord, although I am not a transferred puncher, this kind of opening method, the equipment can't withstand it."

"Huh? .... That's right, this is only one hole, and the upper limit of the durability of the equipment is nearly one-sixth less, and if the ten rune holes are really opened, the equipment will be broken. ”

Although this [Silver Cube Breastplate] is only for testing, it is indeed a waste of resources to forcibly punch holes knowing that it will be damaged.

After Li Li stopped punching, he thought for a moment and came up with a new idea.

"You said that if I make the hole smaller and aim to embed a larger number of runes, will I be able to maintain the strength of the equipment?"

"It's still not good, if you really do that, the increase of runestone will also be reduced, and the overall increase strength is linked to the size."

"In other words, even if the rune stone with the same volume effect is used, if the process of multiple inlays is used, the effect is not as good as the whole piece?"

Li Li tried to understand.

"Yes, Lord Li Li, the rune stone processing and inlay process has a history of four hundred years in Jiayuan Province, please believe in our professionalism."

The meaning of [Rune Refiner] is very straightforward.

If there was a better routine, the previous rune craftsmen would have come up with it a long time ago, Lord Li Li, don't waste your resources and toss around.

"The intensity of the increase is tied to the size... marquetry..."

Li Li touched his chin, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

"The biggest is how big is the rune stone, isn't it the kind of magic rune stone that releases super magic, it's this kind of inlaid on the equipment?"

"Uh... Probably bigger than my fist. ”

Rune Refiner: Gather fists as a reference.

"Is there a meter by a meter?"

"Huh? ... How is this possible!"

The [Rune Refiner] was directly stupid.

The new lord's thinking was inevitably a little too out-of-the-box.

The armor normally worn by a soldier is not one meter by one meter in size.

Is it difficult to inlay equipment on runes?

"It's a pity..."

Li Li let out a long sigh.

"Hey, it can't be said that there is no at all, but that kind of rune is not used for inlay equipment in terms of application."

The Rune Refiner suddenly thought of a facility.

"Really."

"In the past, there was a person who claimed to be from the Red Machine, after observing the manufacturing process of the rune stone, he gave us a very exquisite drawing of the Rune Craftsman Union, hoping that after we built this equipment, we would use it to make energy runes for export to the Red Machine, due to the high price, so we gathered the power of the whole territory to build the equipment, and after the successful commissioning, it really produced a very large volume of energy rune stone, and the effect was similar to that of the inlaid rune stone, but due to the requirements of the Red Machine City for energy output, the characteristics were all locked into a simple energy overflow, Unexpectedly, the person disappeared shortly after getting the finished product, and this huge energy rune stone was quickly discarded because it had no application scenarios. ”

"What's that device called?"

"Industrial Energy Rune Refinery."

Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the headquarters of the Craftsman Guild in Runeter City, in an abandoned warehouse.

The [Rune Refiner] tore off the dusty cotton cloth, and an [Industrial Energy Rune Refiner] was revealed.

Li Li looked at the introduction with goggles, and the one in front of him was about five meters high, and it was a huge facility, except for the ability to produce giant energy runes, there was nothing special about it.

It is a special equipment specially produced for the processing of a certain type of rune.

As for why it was not destroyed by Ofaro, I believe that even if he can remember this device, it is estimated that it is not too high.

"Repair and debug this refinery, and change the production target to three cubic meters of square inlaid runestones."

Hearing Li Li's command, the [Rune Refiner] face was quite ugly.

"Lord, it's not that I don't want to do it, such a large inlaid rune stone, the giant can't use it?"

Anyone who knows a little bit about runestone craftsmanship can understand it.

Inlay runes do not exist alone, equipment manufacturing, as well as supporting abilities such as inlay technology, must be at the same level in order to achieve the amplification effect of rune stones.

"Trust me."

"Okay, but when Offalo escaped, he sold all the raw rune ores to the Chamber of Commerce at a low price, and the consumption of the industrial energy rune refiner was very terrifying, and every time he started it, it was a sky-high price."

The Rune Refiner spoke of another difficulty.

"This is easy to solve, the rune ore will soon avalanche, just wait to buy it at the lowest point."

Li Li informed.

"Why?"

"Because the pixel ore pickaxe has been flooded, the production efficiency has skyrocketed, which will inevitably lead to a sharp drop in the price of rune ore, the reason why it was not revealed before is because I have not yet completed the full control of Jiayuan Province, and trade is blocked, and now is a good time to frantically refine runes."

"The chambers of commerce that are hoarding..."

"What does it have to do with me, the rune ore was sold to them by Offalo, and I didn't force them to buy it."

"Got it! I'm going to pay attention to the price movement now. ”

Seeing the hurried appearance of the [Rune Refiner], Li Li knew that this uncle must have not hoarded less.

In the past, once there was a war, the first thing to be affected would definitely be the mining of local rune ores, and it was wiser to hoard them in advance.

If you change it to now, it is a complete mentally retarded operation.

However, simply buying to supply the [Industrial Energy Rune Refinery] is indeed a bit financially unbearable.

Fortunately, there are six professional large-scale [Rune Mines] under the name of Rune City, and the Huangsha construction workers are mining full-time plus sweeping goods at low prices, and Li Li feels that maintaining supply is not a big problem.

A week later, the [Industrial Energy Rune Refiner] was successfully activated.

In one day, eight pieces of inlaid runes with a size of three cubic meters were refined.

The production staff involved were speechless.

Because if these raw materials are put into the regular production process, they will definitely be able to make a lot of valuable runes.

Li Li's approach is simply a serious waste of resources.

However, as a lord who commanded thousands of murderous and corrupt troops, no one dared to question it head-on.

"Hahaha..."

Li Li looked at the huge finished rune, laughing wildly while looking at it, and the surroundings were terrified.

Coming to a piece of [Level 5 Super Giant Rune - Surging Life] that shone with a faint green light, Li Li took out a mining pickaxe and began to plane.

"Lord Li Li! Be careful! ”

This operation scared the [Rune Refiner].

The inside of the rune stone contains energy, and once the cutting fails, the entire rune will be scrapped, and the attribute explosion will be caused at worst.

"No problem."

As he spoke, the giant rune stone made a crisp sound, and a cube slid outward, absorbed by Li Li into his body.

As for the giant runestone that was chiseled, a square groove with a smooth surface like a mirror appeared in the middle.

"It's... Features of the Pixel Pickaxe! How I didn't expect that! ”

[Rune Refiner] woke up like a dream.

Any texture taken by the Pixel Pickaxe will be squared.

The same goes for runestones, as long as they are large enough.

However, he still didn't understand what Li Li's intentions were.

Because for the inlay of rune stones, even if the cutting is regular, the volume of one cubic meter is still too large, and there is no process to achieve inlay.

After all, whose armor can make holes in the size of one square meter.

"The maximum health is increased by 2504%, hehe, this is called a rune."

Li Li placed the [Level 5 Giant Rune—Surging Life] on the ground and sighed.

Under the same volume, this level 5 rune is definitely not as strong as the previous level 4, and the grade is only B-level.

The reason is that the [Industrial Energy Rune Refinery] itself cannot bear the fine rune processing, and it is normal for the quality to be poor.

But this is only the first batch of finished products, with the commissioning and improvement of the facility, as long as you are willing to invest in research and development funds, there is still some room for improvement.

But if you look at it in terms of volume, this level 5 rune is an anti-heavenly god stone.

Syllable!

Before the factory could react, a giant rune was placed on the [Silver Cube Breastplate].

Yes, not inlayed, but stacked directly on top.

Block materials are indeed rotten in Jiayuan Province.

The ability to fuse two blocks together without any gaps without any adhesive material is indeed beyond everyone's understanding.

Li Li tried it on, and the total health did increase by 2504%, at the cost of limited movement, and the weight was a little unbearable for him.

Later, the giant rune should be replaced on the back, and it was much more comfortable, but I still felt like I was carrying a heavy school bag.

It's still not good, such a large rune is exposed to the outside, and if it is shattered by an attack, it will lose its health increase, which is not conducive to combat.

Needless to say, Li Li himself quickly sensed the problem.

After thinking about it, it seems that the only way to do this is to hollow out the giant runes, directly make them into equipment to wear, and then make a layer of equipment on the outside as protection, which is more feasible.

Although there will still be bloat problems, compared to the amplification effect against the sky, this loss is completely worth it.

After informing you of the idea of the rune equipment and how to implement it.

Everyone was also shocked by this idea.

Jiayuan Province has been studying runes for so many years, and they are all studying how to inlay runes into equipment.

No one has ever come up with the idea of wearing runes and then adding an outer layer of protection.

For a time, the research enthusiasm of the rune craftsmen was unprecedentedly high, although due to the terrifying manufacturing cost, this equipment must not be able to be produced on a large scale.

But once it is successfully developed, it will be a technological innovation for the application of runes, and the participants will definitely go down in history.

However, Li Li's application of giant runes is far more than that.

Soon he set his sights on the [Golem Core].

In terms of the number of blocks it can carry, the Golem Core is ideal for loading giant runes.

Choosing the right buff attributes, and using obsidian blocks as armor on the outside, Li Li is confident that he can create a powerful individual unit.

This super unit may not be able to turn the tide of battle, but it can run rampant on the battlefield and is a great deterrent to the enemy in itself.

With the right tactics, you may be able to complete operations such as killing the lord.

Of course, the most important thing is to be able to defend against Akaje, at least with a unit that can compete with it head-on.

Determined that this idea was feasible, Li Li began to increase investment.

Under the frantic sweep, the price of rune ore in Jiayuan Province was like a roller coaster, starting to soar from the lowest point.

The super giant runes of more than three meters produce eight or nine pieces a day, and even some of the elderly elders of the Craftsman Association have never seen such a crazy scene.

At this time, everyone is glad that the mine pickaxe can be flooded in Jiayuan Province, otherwise even the most basic material supply may not be realized.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and with giant runes as the main material, Li Li has created three works that are quite satisfactory.

The first is a set of runic heavy armor that increases health.

From boots to helmets, they are all structures of runes inside the outer armor.

The full set of health gains reached a terrifying 4720%.

The second is a giant stick made entirely of attack runes.

Due to the size of the block rune, it looks more like a wall pillar than a weapon that can be wielded.

In terms of strength, this weapon is basically at the level of shattering when touched, but because it is all stacked with attack runes, it contains an attack amplification of 17810%.

Li Li named it [Nirvana Stick], which means that the stick will die.

As for the third item, it is the super individual unit [Black Flare Rune Golem].
