That's right, when the stronghold workshop processes and crafts weapon armor, it uses a lot of ore.

The powder produced during cutting is all waste, as long as it is not used urgently in the field, why bother sawing a little bit yourself.

Li Ming felt that in order to study the [Mineral Epidermis], he had been too closed recently.

With a cart of cut rock dragon materials, he came to the processing company's workshop to explain the needs of creating a rock dragon breastplate, and the craftsman Ai Lu calculated for a while.

It means that after removing the materials used and the cost of building, there is a balance of 7300z in the material division.

Then he said that he wanted the workshop to help collect ore powder on a regular basis.

For a big customer like the ruthless squad, which is rising rapidly, the craftsman Ailu immediately agreed.

Two days later, the Rock Dragon Breastplate, which was embedded with a large amount of crust and metal, was completed.

In terms of defense, this breastplate actually surpassed the shield crab breastplate.

Although the weight is a little excessive, Li Ming's current physique can easily control it.

However, due to the inability to link with the Daimyo Shield Crab's [Defensive Posture] to increase the amplification, Li Ming had no intention of wearing it during hunting battles.

The reason why it is built is to generate [Mineral Skin] and provide amplification assistance.

As for the ore powder, Li Ming first chose chaffinite.

The resulting skin is very thin and does not interfere with its own movement, and it has a high impact resistance.

The disadvantage is that even if a very small gap is pierced, there will be a large peel around the perimeter.

But Li Ming never thought that he would have to form the [mineral skin] to an extremely thick extent.

This not only affects the ability to move, but also hinders the wearing of armor.

At the same time, he also has the idea of hunting different monsters and changing the ingestion of other mineral powders at any time to "molt".

So this disadvantage is completely within the acceptable range.

The advanced creation of the chaffinite skin begins here.

The [sagging skin] and [sagging skin] of the weeping skin dragon and [the formation of weeping skin oil] although they offset the skin tightness and dry cracking and bursting skin.

However, with the gradual increase in the intake of mineral powder, with the wearing of the rock dragon breastplate, the balance of the inhibition linkage of the fog ball was quickly broken.

Unlike before, Li Ming's epidermis can already absorb water normally.

Therefore, as long as it is soaked in water regularly, the skin of the chaffite can continue to thicken normally without cracking.

Three days later, feeling that the thickness was already moderate, Li Ming unloaded all the relevant fog balls.

Walking out of the two-story building, there are more and more cats rubbing their eyes and watching.

Everyone felt that there was a faint blue arc flashing on Li Ming's exposed skin, but if they looked closely, they couldn't see the abnormality.

"Eyler, I heard that the armed team has explored the lair of the Blue Bear Beast?"

"Yes, meow."

Clan leader Eyler nodded.

"Help mark it on the map."

Li Ming gave the map.

"Okay, meow, are you going to hunt and fight? But the guild didn't issue a contract. ”

Eller reminded.

It is true that the blue bear has been invading the camp and stealing the hive.

However, because the camp was very resilient, it did not cause any real damage.

"It's not a crusade, it's just that I haven't hunted for too long, and I want to move around to stay in shape."

"Okay meow, please be careful."

Li Ming took the map, headed for the marked point, and set out on the road.

In the evening, Li Ming returned.

Bloodstains are stained all over the armor, and the face is blue and swollen.

The skin of the fists was full of strange transparent mesh shards, as if a layer of crushed glass had been pasted.

Although he looked very embarrassed, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I heard you went looking for the Blue Bear Beast during the day?"

Chu Ying sat by the campfire and asked with concern.

"Yes, but I lost."

"Well, don't worry, some five-star hunters will also be defeated by monsters when they are alone."

Chu Ying gave comfort.

"That's right, in the future, you must no longer despise monsters and attack them with fists."

"Makes sense to punch each other?"

Chu Ying's eyelids jumped.

"I saw that it was not in very good condition, and there were many injuries on its body, so I wanted to try it with my fist, and finally found that it really didn't work, the bear claws were like raindrops."

Hearing the description, Chu Ying suddenly felt that Li Ming's injuries were too slight.

"Alas~ Don't make such a dangerous attempt next time, it's really not good, remember to call us to help."

Chu Ying sighed and said.

"Okay."

"Do you have a plan for your next hunting target?"

"Not yet."

Li Ming didn't have time to plan his next hunt recently.

"If I can, I'd like to make the Poison Demon Bird my next hunting target."

"No problem, this time the contract selection will be handed over."

"Wouldn't it be nice to pick together?"

"There is another move that needs to be studied, and it is a bit of a rush in time."

"Alright, I'll leave the matter of choosing the contract to me."

"And meow."

Boo jumped up and said.

The next day, Li Ming came to the cat dojo.

After a few warm-ups, the three brothers emerged from the soil.

Although it is incomparable in quantity, Li Ming's weight is also much lighter than that of the concubine spider.

However, without driving pheromones, Li Ming can only carry out application training in the most primitive way of doing the right food, making no food wrong, and using the flying insect as the standard demonstration.

The three brothers of the Chen Spider gradually got better, and in one morning, they were already able to connect with spider silk and drag Li Ming in the same direction.

It's just that the part where the spider silk is wound is not fixed, and it's okay to wrap it around the arms and legs, and Li Ming can use his own strength to offset the impact of pulling.

It's a bit depressing when it is wrapped around the neck, it's completely like hanging, and the response time is a bit long.

However, seeing that the three brothers of the Spider comprehended the speed, he felt that it was still very valuable for training.

At lunchtime, Chu Ying returned.

Along with a few uncertified contracts, he also brought back a tall four-star young male hunter.

This man is two meters tall, and his cold face is sharp and angular.

Dressed in a set of Great Monster Bird armor, he carries the Flame Feather Horn made of Barbarian Jaw Dragon materials.

"This is Ni Shuang, a member of the squad recommended by the guild. Li Ming. ”

Seeing the three Chen spiders draped on her body, Chu Ying was stunned for a moment.

Guild recommends squad members

Li Ming suddenly remembered that he had registered as a recruiting member in Shui Yun.

I didn't expect to be recruited, and I was still a hunter who used a hunting flute.

"Go play, hello Ni Shuang."

Li Ming dispersed the spiders and walked to the fence of the dojo.

"Hello Li Ming, I've been in Feiye Fortress recently, and I've heard a lot of stories about the ruthless squad, so I wanted to come and take a look. It's a nice camp. ”

Ni Shuang shook hands politely.

The cold touch of Li Ming's palm made a strange look flash on his face.

"It's all the cats, let's go inside and talk."

"No, I'm looking for hunters who are willing to hunt dragons with me in the future."

Ni Shuang said his appeal very calmly.

Li Ming's eyes sank slightly.

"Can you ask why?"

"The village that was devoured when the dragon was first sighted is my hometown, and I am the only survivor."

After Ni Shuang told him, he thought that Li Ming would show horror or disbelief, but the other party looked serious and thoughtful.

It looks like I'm really thinking about it.

"Li Ming, do you know what kind of monster the skeleton dragon is?"

Ni Shuang asked tentatively.

"I know, the contract issued by the Dragon Calendar Academy back then, the demon star named Naraku, is located in the ancient forest dragon cemetery, but there is no detailed follow-up record of that hunt, and it is estimated that it ended in failure."

It is impossible for the Dragon Calendar Academy to hide such an exciting thing as successfully hunting the skeleton dragon.

"That's right, I was the client of that contract, and that's why I became a hunter."

After Ni Shuang lost his mind for a short time, he nodded solemnly.

"Is the hunting flute a weapon you've been using?"

Li Ming looked behind Ni Shuang.

The hunting flute, which is obviously biased towards the auxiliary direction, is a little incongruous with Ni Shuang's determination to take revenge.

"That's right, but it's not a proof of back-off, I just realized that with my own ability, I might not be able to hunt the skeleton dragon for the rest of my life, so I made the choice."

Assist the more promising hunters in the battle and carry out the curve revenge.

Ni Shuang's strategy surprised Li Ming, but it was reasonable to think about it.

There is no "protagonist" in this world, attacking all kinds of powerful monsters, shaping epics, and leaving legends.

When failure becomes the main tone, even a young hunter full of ideal revenge can only start from the most pragmatic point of view.

"I'm willing to hunt skeletal dragons in the future, but I don't know if the potential is enough."

Li Ming said frankly.

With the blessing of the fog ball, he is indeed talented.

But in the end, he couldn't be sure if the upper limit that could be reached would be enough to hunt the skeleton dragon.

The reason is not only some differences between the game and reality, but also the long time span, which is also an unstable factor.

The ghost knows how many monsters the skeleton dragon has hunted during this time, and whether it has practiced a new type of dragon head transformation.

In addition, hunters who use hunting flutes are very popular with hunter squads.

But Li Ming didn't want to fool Ni Shuang into joining, after all, the other party's situation was already very bad.

"Then let's hunt together, so that we can investigate each other most intuitively, and in order to show sincerity, I can give up the material share."

Ni Shuang took the initiative to make a proposal.

"I'm okay with that, Chu Ying, what about you?"

"I don't have either, but at the moment the Flame Village branch doesn't have a hunting contract for the poisonous demon bird, so you have to help."

The three of them enter the cabin and observe the contract they brought back.

Mermaids, dragons, shadow spiders, red armor, and general scythes

Ni Shuang looked around, and asked with a puzzled face: "Wait a minute, the contract you prepared, don't you have a three-star contract?" ”

"The contract that the team receives has always been equal to its own star rating."

Chu Ying informed.

"No wonder Shui Yun would recommend it highly."

Ni Shuang felt something unusual.

Even if an ordinary team reaches a certain star, in order to be safe, they will also receive a low-star contract to hone their hunting skills and build corresponding equipment.

The Ruthless Squad has been receiving contracts at the current star level.

If you are just brave enough to take risks, it may not be worthy of praise from outsiders.

But the horror is that the Ruthless Squad has never failed to this day.

Li Ming picked up a hunting contract and looked at it for a long time, and laid it flat on the table.

"I want to hunt the Snake Dragon, what do you think?"

"Snake dragon, it seems to be a less common monster, is it the snake dragon monster that can reach a length of more than 40 meters?"

Chu Ying said suddenly.

"That's right."

"Is there any particular reason?"

Ni Shuang asked puzzled.

"The sound armor on the body surface of the snake dragon is very sensitive to sound resonance, and if it is used to create armor, it can not only achieve high-level ear plugs, but also significantly increase the sound wave transmission of the hunting flute."

Li Ming explained.

"That's true, but."

Ni Shuang still didn't understand what the reason was.

"If the hunt is successful, you can use the materials to build armor."

"This"

"I know what you're worried about, don't be in a hurry to refuse, in case you can't become a teammate, just continue to look for that suitable hunter, and write to me to inform me when you find it."

"Sorry, I still don't understand what you mean."

"That man might need a helper, if he exists."

Others save the world and help rub the ball yourself.

This was almost the safest way to obtain a high-level fog ball, and Li Ming felt that the investment was worth it.

Of course, as the words say, the person must exist.

In addition, for the snake twister that can use sonic resonance, Li Ming is also very much looking forward to the fog ball that it bursts out.

"Thank you for the team's help."

Ni Shuang sincerely thanks.

"Meow eats!"

The door to the hut was pushed open.

The team of cat chefs led by Bubu walked in with their plates held high.

"Is your hunting cat in the fortress? Call over for dinner. ”

Li Ming reminded.

"My path as a hunter has come to an end, so I didn't recruit hunting cats to accompany me."

Ni Shuang explained.

It turned out that he also knew that he was on the road of death

"Oh, then hurry up and eat, you're welcome."

"Well, I'm a bit of a big eater."

Ni Shuang smiled awkwardly.

"Rest assured, the camp is well stocked with meat."

After the three of them had lunch, Chu Ying went to Feiye Fortress and asked Shui Yun to do contract certification.

Li Ming continued to train the three brothers of the Spider.

Ni Shuang sat in the room, looking at the plates piled up to waist height.

With a trembling palm, he took out a small notepad.

1. Dress strangely

2. Be helpful

3. The amount of food is terrifying

Scanning the annotations of the three lines in front of him, Ni Shuang drew a check mark at the end of the line.

"Could it be you, Li Ming"

"I don't know."

Ni Shuang's eyes moved sideways, and he saw a fluffy black cat's head, which was also looking at the notepad seriously.

"I'm sorry to scare you, my name is Mi Duoduo, and I'm here to clean up the plates."

Midodo said, and began to tidy up the table.

"It's fine. Are you Li Ming's hunting cat? ”

"That's right, meow."

After receiving a confirmed reply, Ni Shuang looked down at the notepad.

"Does Li Ming have any ambitions?"

"Of course there is Meow, he said that he wanted to create our own legend."

Ni Shuang was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, and drew the right mark again on 8 and ambitious.

"Spider 2! Don't wrap spider silk around my neck anymore! ”

Li Ming's sudden shout attracted Ni Shuang to come to the window to watch.

"There will always be times when training doesn't go well."

Midodo has long been surprised by this.

"Is Li Ming researching a new move?"

Ni Shuang asked.

"Yes, meow."

"Yes, yes."

Ni Shuang opened the notepad again, and drew a check mark in the rear of 11 and being good at innovation.
