Naturally, a piece of armor can't do anything. It's even difficult to block the short bows and small arrows of the natives.
However, hundreds of thousands of armor pieces connected in series to form a whole can form an external defense module for etheric weapons, which can block the fangs and claws of monsters and aliens or the bullet impact of alchemical fire weapons.
If coupled with the energy supply enhancement of the Ether Furnace Heart, even the alchemical artillery can block it!
After all, it is the Governor of Port Harrison and Viscount Grant's strongest trump card to suppress the surrounding natives. Naturally, the more spare parts of this defense module, the better.
Although theoretically speaking, this kind of most basic inscription defense armor can be made by any junior inscription craftsman, but not everyone can have such steady hands and gain the trust of the viscount. Obtaining this is obviously very important.
The key is work that doesn’t allow for mistakes.
What's more, it took Ian nearly half an hour to engrave such a piece of armor.
If you were to fight against a strong person of the same level, your armor would be consumed at a rate of several per second.
"Destruction is always harder than creation... Without the assistance of the silver chip, I just rely on my own basic skills. I am afraid that it is close to the level of a formal inscription craftsman. The assessment may be a bit strenuous."
After finishing this successful drawing, he put down the armor plate and photolithography pen, and Ian stretched out: "Well, today's task is completed, the progress is not very obvious."
Looking sideways at his workbench, he couldn't help complaining: "The tools are still too poor. Harrison Port cannot buy a full set of inscription tools used by normal craftsmen."
The boy, who is not yet fully developed, has a handsome face, a pair of light cyan eyes, and waist-length hair braided into a long braid, hanging from his shoulders to his waist.
He was wearing a black hooded off-shoulder vest, the white robe he was supposed to be wearing was wrapped around his waist, and his crocodile leather waist bag was tied with a belt and seemed to contain many things.
Even for Terran people with regular appearances, Ian's appearance, which has gradually grown, is extremely stunning. If Tang Jue appears in a strange place, he will definitely attract a lot of attention, so he usually wears a hood when going out.
Cover your face to avoid getting into trouble.
But the good thing is that he rarely goes out, and even when he travels, he moves quickly. Only during festival celebrations and important gatherings within the White people, he will become a disciple of Elder Pude.
Psykers with inscription talents appear.
As ordinary people, being too good-looking may cause a lot of trouble.
But as the future leader of a clan, he has outstanding appearance and abilities, which can make people remember him deeply and provide significant cohesion.
At the very least, when there are many white people who cannot recognize all their relatives, they all recognize Ian.
An appearance that can be remembered deeply and even be recognized at a glance is also a kind of extraordinary power.
"Today's schedule has been completed, it's time to rest."
After putting away the armor plate and the inscription engraving knife, Ian put away the lithography pen with great care. Even though the lithography pen looked very old, it was actually the most valuable tool in his body now.
The ultra-high-purity thunder element crystal at the tip of the pen alone is worth fifty thalers of silver coins... You know, a deerskin coat worn by a nobleman is only about 20 thalers.
On the pen itself, the inscription array can be switched with different thicknesses of photolithography blades through different buttons, which is also worth dozens of thalers.
Just such a pen can buy half a cow, and the price is comparable to the combined price of all the materials on a first-level monster... And after the light core of a thunderhunting jellyfish is refined and processed into element crystals, it can at least make
Thirty pen nibs came out.
What is the added value of technology? What is cutting-edge processing products? What is huge profits?
Since knowing the value of his pen, Ian has finally understood why Viscount Grant devoted all his efforts to training him to become an official alchemist, inscription craftsman, and even a scholar.
Really, really profitable...
Six years have passed since the boy awakened his past life memories, and the teacher has also been away for four years.
Thanks to Hilliard's devoted teachings and the silver chip left behind, now Ian can easily go hand in hand and directly cross over even if he studies inscription and alchemy at the same time.
Pass the apprenticeship and junior professional levels and move towards the formal professional level.
In addition, he has also accumulated rich experience in the true form cultivation of the Sand Armor Apprentice and the cultivation of the Wavesinger.
If you include the large amount of source material stored in the core of the ancient dragon, Ian's true combat effectiveness is probably second only to the two second-level powerhouses in Harrison Port today.
Whether it was Elder Pude of his own family, the Viscount's two assistants, or the mercenary leader Lübeck, the most they could do was pull out their trump cards and fight him to no avail.
Even, it will be slightly inferior to him.
In the entire Nanling redwood forest area, it is difficult to break into only the few sacred places where the indigenous totem spirits are worshiped and totem masters. Other areas are simply like walking on plain ground for young people.
But Ian doesn't like fighting.
If possible, he would rather read a few more books, do an experiment, or inscribe a few more inscriptions to improve his proficiency, rather than waste energy fighting.
His time was precious, he had to do a lot of research, and he had a series of plans and timetables waiting to be realized in the future, and he didn't want to waste it on meaningless disputes.
Valley diarrhea
Of course, this does not mean that Ian is a nice gentleman with a gentle personality.
On the contrary, this means that if Ian takes action, his enemies will never have a chance to waste his time.
However, in the past four years, Ian's life has been quite peaceful.
No unsighted enemy came over to waste his time, which reassured him that he had accumulated four years of knowledge and skills, and his body gradually matured, fully meeting the requirements for the next advancement of the Shakai Apprentice, and he continued to practice.
conditions of.
It was also in the past four years that Ian established his reputation in the 'appraisal circle'.
Appraisal of stores relies on credibility, reputation and hype, and then high prices to make money from wealthy people.
With the support and recommendation of Viscount Grant, Ian relied on his psychic powers and the assistance of silver chips to identify ores and herbs, unknown new Warcraft materials, and some ancient materials for many wealthy businessmen, sublimators, and even alchemists.
creation.
In the Viscount's view, Ian's psychic abilities tend to be 'analytical' and 'perspective', and he can see changes in some psychic fields.
This is a rather advanced psychic ability of observation. With a little training, you can develop extraordinary eyesight.
And Ian did not disappoint him.
Except for several unsuccessful attempts to identify Warcraft materials, the young man was able to identify the relevant properties and possible functions of most natural minerals, herbs, and even dilapidated ancient relics.
Especially for ores and ancient relics, because of his ability to see and analyze, Ian can even accurately deduce the internal structure of an unknown ore, and even discover precious source crystals hidden deep in the depths.
As for ancient relics, and because Ian can see the changes in the psychic field, he can always accurately judge the structure of all the source materials of the other party, and then rely on his knowledge of alchemy and inscriptions to deduce its possible function, and accurately
The rate is above 80%.
This is something that many formal appraisers cannot do.
Today, Ian is well-known in the entire southern appraisal circle. Of course, his strength is part of it, but his youth and appearance are also bonus points.
There was even a wealthy businessman from Nauman City. After Ian found a piece of natural pure silver crystal among many primitive ores, he not only wanted to spend a lot of money to invite Ian to work in his chamber of commerce, but also wanted to betroth his daughter to him.
Ian was not stupid, so he naturally declined. Although the wealthy businessman felt regretful, he did not lose his favorable impression. Whenever he needed it, he would always come to Ian for appraisal.
nature.
These tendencies are all disguised.
In fact, with the ability to predict vision and the silver chip, there is nothing that Ian cannot identify, there is nothing that cannot be picked up, and it is even less likely that he will make mistakes.
But who would be so stupid as to show everything before they are still young?
Therefore, he deliberately set several shortcomings and advantages for himself, such as his "inaccuracy in the identification of animal things" and his advantages in "inanimate things".
The former is a shortcoming of all observational psykers who can observe natural psychic fields, while the latter is mainly because Ian wants to obtain more information about ancient relics from the pre-epoch, so he deliberately shows his advantages to let more people know.
Many people sent more unknown ancient relics to him for identification.
In this way, he might be able to use the silver chip's information library to gradually piece together the full picture of Terra in the past era.
This is a very long process. The four and a half pre-era relics that Ian has identified in the past four years are fragments of some kind of insulation facility. The alloy fruit knife from the pre-era even had the rust and outer coating washed away.
Well, at that time, I really wanted to curse an ordinary heating kettle, the rotating base of an ancient statue, and the alloy structural fragments of a large engineering creation.
As long as these things are really useful, they are not useless at all!
However, Ian is not impatient. It is impossible to give truly useful ancient relics to a novice like him for identification, and the holder will not come to a place like Harrison Port.
All he needs now is fame.
If you have a reputation, don't be afraid of not having a chance.
Just when Ian was about to pick up a book and do some alchemy questions to relax his mind, he suddenly heard the sound of wind chimes coming from the door of the shop downstairs.
"Oh? Appraisal guest?"
With a slightly raised eyebrow, Ian naturally knew the purpose of the person who came to his store and shook the wind chime in advance.
The young man raised his head and showed a business smile: "I hope it is something interesting."
