Chapter 42: The Helpless Stark

During this hunt, Ace plans to build a weapon and a set of light armor for each of the three men.

In fact, as a mage, you can cast spells without a wand, but without the help of a wand, the cast speed should be slower. The magic stone embedded in the stick can also store foreign magic inside. Higher quality Magic Stones can store more elemental mana.

This means that the mage can cast more spells with a wand for the same strength, which is a considerable improvement for the mage in actual combat.

Of course, the higher the level of the Philosopher's Stone, the higher the requirements for the material. In general, low-level blacksmiths can only make equipment from low-level materials such as brass, black iron, and steel. Right now, Ace is only a beginner blacksmith and has not yet entered the ranks of the intermediate ranks, so the best metal he can control is steel.

These days, Ace made three for the three of them. Due to the material of his wand, he could only be inlaid with low-level magic stones.

He also tailored a relatively thin set of armor specifically for these three people, which can be called light armor. It is not as heavy as heavy armor, but it is also better than leather armor. It's a balance, so to speak.

He originally wanted to make a set of bone armor, but unfortunately he only bought three low-grade magic stones and spent more than 200 gold coins. In the face of expensive bone armor materials, Ace is really a little shy in his pocket.

After nearly ten days of unremitting efforts, Ace finally forged three sets of equipment. Looking at the masterpiece in front of him, although it is not perfect, this is the first work he has embarked on the road of satin. Ace is very satisfied with this.

Even Stark, who had always been very demanding of him, nodded and said affirmatively: "Okay, it's good to build a complete set of equipment for the first time, but there are still many things that need to be improved, and you will have to work hard in the future!" ”

Ace couldn't help but laugh as the teacher praised him.

In fact, Ace could ask Stark to build them better equipment, but then Ace would not be able to make progress in the satin fabrication process, and the operation would lose its relevance.

If the equipment is too good, there will always be some slack among people and they will not go all out to fight.

In addition to three sets of regular armor and clubs, Ace also made three short crossbows that could be tied to his arms. There is a lead wire on the bowstring, which can be used to hook the crossbow with your fingers, which is very convenient to use.

After all, there is a limit to the magic in a magician's body. In the face of some traditional beasts, there is no need to waste magic at all. A short crossbow can solve this problem.

In addition, if there is no magic in the body at the time of the crisis, the short crossbow can also be used to save the emergency.

A few days later, the college announced a holiday for all students.

Ace summoned Arak and Leon to the blacksmith's shop to admire his forging.

"Wow, yes, Ace, you forge these? It only took ten days? Leon stroked the intricately crafted armor with a burst of admiration.

Ace's sense of accomplishment burst out instantly: "Yes, after a night of hard work, I finally achieved the creation of these equipment!" ”

All three of them were laughing heartily.

Ace saw a second reddish star engraved on Arak's collar at this time. Ace knew that he had broken through to become a second-level fire magician, so he gave Arak a thumbs up: "Great, do as you say!" ”

Arak smiled helplessly: "Donate money one by one, what can I do?" I can only help you prepare some worthless alchemical medicines. I'm really sorry! If I don't hurry up and raise my mage level, I won't have the face to see you! ”

But Leon said, "Hey, I don't like what you said. The three of us are the best brothers. How could the brothers care about this! ”

Ace also nodded again and again: "In other words, we must cooperate well this time to make a lot of money!" ”

Stark sneered, "Hmph, don't blame me for not reminding you that hunting is not a game. If you encounter a truly powerful demonic beast, I suggest retreating early and not going up and dying stupidly! ”

Ace repeatedly promised: "I know, teacher, we are not stupid. Can't we fight and run away if we can't fight? ”

But listening to Stark's voice, he continued solemnly, "You should remember that sometimes humans are more cunning and sinister than beasts, you know? ”

Ace couldn't help but be stunned. He really hadn't thought about this before. At first, he thought the purpose of the trip was to make money. Now it seems that this is not so simple. When these three men form a team to explore, they are likely to encounter other hunting groups. Conflicts are inevitable.

Ace couldn't help but worry when he thought about it. But it's winter and there shouldn't be a lot of teams that want to hunt.

"We're not going to the Warcraft Mountains this time. It's too dangerous for us there for the time being. Ace said to Arak and Leon, "This time we're going to the northwest." I looked at the map. There is a large forest where the creatures are mainly ordinary beasts, and occasionally there are some low-level monsters, which is great for us to practice! ”

Arak and Leon also nodded. In fact, their current strength is too weak to deal with the complicated situation of the Warcraft Mountain Range.

"By the way, Arak, how is your Golden Treasure Hunt Rat? Is the wound healed? Ace asked.

A melancholy cloud suddenly appeared on Arak's face: "Hey, forget it, the little guy's injury is worse than I thought. Although it can be cured, it takes a lot of time. Now I'm just helping him with his wound to avoid further deterioration. It takes at least a month to fully recover. ”

"A month? Even if Warcraft has a strong ability to heal itself, will it still take a month? Ace was a little surprised. He didn't expect the cub of the level 6 demonic beast to be so seriously injured. It is believed that the hunting parties of that time must have only cared about getting rewards, and did not consider the safety of their cubs.

"Yes, I'm worried too. This time we went hunting, the short one was ten days, the long one was more than half a month, and now the school is on vacation. So where should I put that little thing? Who will raise it? "Arak is sad.

"Yes, where to put ......"

It didn't take long for the eyes of the three men to slowly look at Stark, who was watching the exciting scene.

Stark immediately shouted, "You little villains, don't look at me, I won't take care of you for ......"

Before saying "Gu", Ace and the others directly bent down together to thank them: "Thank you, Master Stark!" ”

"You... You ......" Stark was already speechless with anger, but the three little ones on the other side had already thanked him so sincerely, how could he refuse.
