Duke quietly left the farm and headed south into the bush.
After making sure that there would be no more people around, he turned on the Sand Eagle's tactical light, and in an instant the entire bush returned to daylight.
"This brightness is amazing!"
"Moreover, the consumption of spiritual power is not large. At least if I maintain this output intensity, the spiritual sea will not be exhausted all day long." He is now a four-star spiritual apprentice, and the spiritual power in the spiritual sea is connected by threads.
Big increase.
It is far from being so embarrassing when gathering gas and liquid.
Suddenly.
There is movement in the snowdrift on the left.
Duke raised his hand and turned the sand hawk, and the tactical light illuminated the left side. It was a hare jumping out of the snowdrift in search of food.
Illuminated by the strong light of the flashlight, I stood motionless.
Duke circulated his fighting energy on his feet and quickly rushed towards the hare, leaping forward to catch the motionless hare.
"There is also an unexpected gain."
In the past, Duke rarely hunted such small prey, because the bullets of the sand hawk were so powerful that the flesh and blood would explode upon being rubbed, leaving no intact corpse at all.
Unexpectedly, after being exposed to strong light, this hare stayed still and waited to be caught.
"Perhaps you were blinded by strong light. If you are attacked by a spiritual beast in the future, you may be able to blind the opponent by surprise with a tactical light, especially a green laser."
Duke held the hare's ears and hurried back happily.
The snow that had fallen all day and night was half a meter deep. He waded through the thick snow, lighting the road with a tactical light, and hurried back to the other fields step by step.
"Boss."
"Levin, you're not asleep yet."
"Sister Sally is afraid that the snow will damage the greenhouse, so I'll come over and clear the snow." Levin responded naively, he is very hardworking and hardworking.
Sally was also clearing snow from the greenhouse.
Duke nodded and did not go to clear the snow. As a farmer, there was no need for him to do such small things himself.
He returned to the studio on the second floor and began to renovate the scrapped spiritual cards.
"Xiaoyi, please report on my cultivation progress."
"Good master, your current spiritual sea level is a four-star spiritual apprentice (connected by line). The advancement progress is estimated to be 31.2%, and the time budget is 984 days."
984 days, which is nearly three years.
This refers to the upgrading time required for Duke to rely on the ascetic meditation method without a major epiphany. It is the maximum time value.
In fact, it won’t take so many days.
Because Duke repairs and renovates the cards, he will always have some insights, small or big, and then advance his practice progress.
For example, his 31.2% progress was achieved after many realizations.
Otherwise, it would be great to be able to achieve 5% progress through hard work in two months. This is also the reason why most spiritual apprentices waste their lives in the apprenticeship stage - after all, they do not have small skills to help them 24 hours a day. p>
"It's a pity that I haven't found a 2-ring spirit card recently. I repair a 1-ring spirit card every day. I have learned all the things that need to be learned..."
"Jiji!"
Xiao Dou stood on the shelf of the workbench, opened his mouth and made a chirping sound in front of the air. He often repeated this action in the past two days.
This is a precursor to the upcoming activation of arcane magic.
When the energy and blood of the young spirit beast grow to a certain level, the spirituality engraved in the blood will spontaneously breed spell models, allowing arcane spells to be released.
However, Duke didn't know what type of arcane spell Kabuto inspired would be.
"Work hard!"
"Jiji!"
After a few hours of busy work, all the accumulated scrapped spiritual cards were renovated.
Now Duke's skills in repairing cards are not much different from those of old masters for many years. With Xiaoyi formulating repair plans, the technology has reached its peak.
And unlike other card repairers, Duke also saves materials very much.
Xiaoyi calculated clearly how many materials should be used, highlighting a diligent and thrifty person.
"Take a bath and go to bed!"
……
In a blink of an eye, it’s two days before the Chinese New Year.
Aunt Abi has been given leave by Duke and has gone home to spend time with her family.
Sally had no other relatives, so she stayed at the Little Duke Farm with her two children. Levin's parents came once, asked for some money from Levin, and left, but they did not call Levin back for the New Year.
"I don't want to go back either." Levin said in a low voice.
His parents treated him very badly, and they kicked Levin out of the house when he became an adult. They ignored him and left him alone. As a result, Levin was expelled from Little Sam's Card Shop and didn't even have a place to live.
Now that Levin has a stable job, his parents rarely come to visit, just to ask Levin for money.
"Then stay here and celebrate the New Year with me." Duke said.
"Yeah."
"Aunt Abi is not here, so I have to ask Sister Sally to cook."
"Don't worry." Sally patted her chest and said, "Although I'm not as good at cooking as Aunt Abi, I can still prepare a table for New Year's Eve meals."
At Little Duke Farm, we were preparing for the New Year meals.
In the evening, a guest came.
"Why, Little Boss Duke doesn't recognize me anymore?" The guest was a woman, standing on the steps in front of the door, taking off her cloak and shaking off the snow on it.
Surprisingly, it was Xina, the new leader of the Broken Sword mercenary group who had had a deal with Duke before.
The difference is that she used to wear a face covering, but now she doesn't.
Her face cannot be said to be beautiful, but her facial features are very strong, and she looks like a female mercenary with a very dashing style.
"Commander Zina, please come in." Duke smiled slightly, his thoughts coming to life.
"Well, this house is well decorated. If I weren't a spiritual plant envoy, I would also like to buy a farm and run it slowly."
"Captain Xina can definitely hire spiritual plant envoys."
"Hiring a spiritual plant envoy is not cheap."
After the two were polite, Duke invited Zina to sit down in the living room, and asked Sally, who was preparing food in the kitchen, to pour Zina a cup of hot coffee.
"Captain Zina is looking for me to have business cooperation?"
"Indeed...find a quiet place."
"Let's talk in the study room on the second floor."
Duke took Zina to the study on the second floor. Xiao Dou in the breeding room was very clever. He hid when he heard someone coming over without worrying about being discovered.
Zina took a look at the study room: "There are many books. Boss Duke is really a studious person. Just buying these books probably cost a lot of gold dragons, right?"
Self-built small villa, each room is very spacious.
The same is true for the study room. There is a desk next to the window, and bookshelves are placed on the other three walls.
It is already filled with all kinds of books, all of which are second-hand books that Duke bought with money, most of which come from Shenjiao City. After all, the Faling Society Library in Sheshou Town can be borrowed, and there is no need to spend money to buy them, but Shenjiao
The city library will not allow people from the countryside to borrow books.
"If you want to obtain knowledge, you must spend money. This is the unchanging truth."
"Not bad."
"Captain Zina, what kind of spirit card do you want to repair this time?" Duke asked.
"Put this aside for now. I would like to ask, little boss Duke, how fast is your card repairer friend? Can the 2nd and 3rd ring spirit cards be repaired if they are seriously damaged? If it is fast, can it be repaired?
, with superb technology, we can make a lot of money by working together."
After Zina finished speaking, she sat on the chair and tasted the coffee silently.
Duke raised his eyebrows: "You mean, you have a stable channel to obtain a large number of severely damaged 2nd and 3rd ring spirit cards?"
