Giving guarantees now and fighting for them may make Zuda trust the team.
But the actual situation is that what the team is going to do to Steel Dragon is much more serious than the opponent expected.
Moreover, it is not yet completely certain that the Steel Dragon can be defeated, not to mention the mutation has not yet been determined.
Looking back at the cautious attitude the Kara Village Guild Branch had towards Thunder Wolf Dragon and Puff Dragon, we should have known that this road would not work.
Even the most radical Longliyuan, when preparing to attack Huihui, did enough ecological research and finally confirmed the threat before proceeding with the operation.
Li Fan thought to himself, feeling a little helpless.
"Director Zuda, we are also hunters, please trust us!"
Eudora suddenly spoke with a very serious expression.
"Hey, the ancient dragon that hates humans is very scary, but that's why we need to investigate and track it. I believe you."
Zuda changed the topic and put his seal on the investigation contract.
"Remember to do a good job in ecological investigation and tracking, and be sure not to fight rashly. This is the seal of the ancient dragon observation team. Show it to the president at the branch, and you can get the latest ancient dragon trends in the jurisdiction."
Zuda ordered and at the same time took out two more red badges.
"Thank you, Director! We will do it!"
Eudora assured.
Not long after walking out of the Ancient Dragon Observatory, Eudora suddenly stopped.
"In order to abide by the Hunter Code, I will never take action against the Steel Dragon. I hope you can supervise me."
Eudora informed.
"Well, to be honest, I am also worried about this problem. If everything is fine, we should not cause trouble as soon as we take action."
Li Fan feels that the team's self-protection ability is enough now, but the world cannot withstand destruction.
Every ruin that I have visited here was once a splendid civilization.
"But if the steel dragon takes the initiative to threaten humans"
"If we want to talk about threats, the steel dragon's body is already very rusty. Maybe it actually attacks human villages and towns to remove the rust."
Li Fan speculated.
"Oh! Then it's time for our investigation and follow-up."
Eudora immediately became excited.
"What are your next steps?"
"I plan to go to the soul hunting monument at the headquarters and carve my father's name on it."
Eudora informed.
The Soul Hunting Monument is a stone tablet specially engraved with the names of hunters who died in battle. After hearing this, Li Fan quickly persuaded him and said, "You're not in a hurry, right?"
"People have to face reality. Now that I have grown into a chief hunter, I can no longer escape many things."
Eudora sighed.
"Okay, Dilu, you go and accompany Eudora, and I'll go back to the airship to get the armor and inlay the decorations."
The team separated at this point.
The total reward for hunting the Wind God Dragon and the Thunder God Dragon is 675,000z.
Although the cost of the Flame is not small, the cost of inlaying decorations is still affordable.
In the processing workshop, the craftsman Eluma looked at the armor that was slowly floating in the wind, and asked with some fear: "Guest, what kind of armor is this?"
"It's called Narukami Armor."
"What material is it made of, meow?"
"I don't know, is it passed down from ancestors without inlay holes?"
Li Fan asked.
"Yes! And the reserved hole positions are very precise, which requires extremely high craftsmanship."
Craftsman Elcat informed.
“What should I do if the hole position is inaccurate?”
Li Fan asked.
"That means we can only perform secondary processing on the hole first. If it doesn't work, we can only force-fit the hole if it is too small, and fix it with casting if it is too large."
Craftsman Elcat informed.
"That's it."
"Please sit down. Let's look at the decoration album first. I'll make tea."
After craftsman Elmao finished speaking, he left quickly.
Li Fan opened the album and read two pages at random.
I can’t help feeling that this is a city-state that is worthy of being called the center of the world.
Due to the sufficient and comprehensive material reserves, most of the decorations in the game can be crafted, but the price is a bit expensive.
"Please use Cha Meow! I can help introduce you to any of your favorite accessories."
"Five Broken Dragon Beads, five Master Beads, five Beating Beads, three Windproof Beads, and a set of decoration disassembly and assembly tools."
The craftsman Elumao, who was holding a pen to record, was stunned on the spot.
"By the way, a disassembly and assembly instruction manual will be given, right?"
Li Fan asked.
"Yes, meow! Please wait a moment, guest!"
Craftsman Eluma ran back to the counter to calculate for a while, and finally gave a price.
To create 18 decorative beads, plus a set of decoration disassembly and assembly tools, the total cost is 410500z.
After Li Fan paid, he decided to inlay five beating beads on the Naruken armor.
After that, I spent another 154200z to use armor jade to strengthen the defense of the entire Narukami armor to the maximum.
The only shortcoming is that this processing workshop was established directly under the trade union, so there is no room for bargaining.
However, the quality and process standards are extremely high-guaranteed.
In the evening, the enhanced Narukami suit was delivered to Li Fan.
After checking that there was no problem, I took the equipment back to the Flame.
Seeing that Eudora and Dilu hadn't returned yet, Li Fan started testing on the small training ground on the deck.
After putting on the Narukami Armor, my head is still slightly tilted to one side.
He seems to have an inexplicable sense of arrogance and contempt for everyone.
As for why I chose the Thrash Bead, it was mainly due to the ability description in the manual.
Different from other workshops, the abilities of each decoration here are demonstrated by hunters wearing them for a long time.
The positive and negative effects are written in great detail on the page introducing the beads' abilities.
The stimulating ability of the Thrash Bead is a weakness special effect.
In the game, it is reflected in attacking the weak points of monsters, which will increase the understanding rate.
In reality, it is somewhat similar to seeing through, and it can also trigger a delay in time perception.
The difference is that when the weak point effect is activated, the body can make larger movements simultaneously, instead of only making fine adjustments like seeing through.
In terms of disadvantages, the distortion of things seen in the eyes will be more serious than when seeing through is activated.
Only a small area in the center of the viewing angle will appear in a relatively normal state.
The guild's suggestion for the use of weak point effects is to focus your eyes on the vital parts of the monster to be struck before activating it. Otherwise, once the field of vision is lost, even if you can make larger movements, it will be difficult to attack the vital parts with intuition.
Li Fan faced the training stakes and planned to test it.
call!
Take a deep breath and raise the wooden tachi used for training.
Buzz! There is a yellowish distortion in the field of vision, swallowing the world like a whirlpool.
Only the center of the vortex, a collapsing circular hole, can be seen without distortion.
However, the scene inside the circular hole is not normal either, as the vortex continues to move forward.
On the chest of the doll, there is a wooden texture, a diagonal cut mark, and a green caterpillar squirming in the crack.
Villi spiky, segment-like raised green skin surface
Oh my god! Why is this developing towards microscopic things? Microscopes!
Whoosh!
The twisted world returned to its original shape again. Li Fan looked around and found that he was back on the deck again, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat on the deck and recorded the strange feelings just now in his notebook.
Something is wrong, even if reality can break through the upper limit of ability levels, the weak effects in the game, which can only reach level 3 at most, have been raised to level 5.
The effect isn't that outrageous.
Could it be that the super assimilation physique makes the decoration's abilities stronger?
Let's just say it's level 10 for the time being, but it's not even that.
At this time, Li Fan suddenly thought of the ability of the Naomi Armor to inspire wind and thunder.
Wait, if the combination of wind and thunder can break through the game restrictions and improve all stimulation abilities.
The improvement of a single thrash bead should be a level 3 weakness special effect.
The 5 pieces are accumulated together, which is level 15. If the super assimilation effect is multiplied by 2.
Weakness effects at level 30!
No wonder it is like a microscope, even the caterpillars in the gaps on the surface of the training stakes can be clearly seen with a few hairs.
"Leaves! Come on!"
Li Fan shouted.
Ye Ye, whose name was called, ran out of the kitchen with a mixing bowl in hand.
"Leaf! Do you think I'm normal?"
Li Fan asked eagerly.
"Yeah, it's okay, nya."
The leaves whispered in response.
"That means there are no serious negative effects."
When an ability was stacked to level 30 and activated, Li Fan first thought that it was not the strength of the effect, but the impact on himself.
"I'm going back to cooking, meow."
As the leaves left, Li Fan sat on the ground and studied again.
If the combination of wind and thunder can make all the stimulating abilities effective, then the application of decorations can achieve the effect of one being worth three.
No! For me, one is worth six.
However, the excitation ability intensity is too high and has completely lost its practicality.
Just like the special effect of the weak point activated just now, it is probably only useful when getting rid of fleas.
Li Fan thought for a moment, took out the decoration disassembly and assembly tools, and started disassembling according to the manual.
After painstakingly removing the four beating beads, Li Fan restored the decoration packaging cover.
After finishing it, looking at the few extra embedded parts, he decided to talk about it later.
At this time, activate the weakness special effect on the training stakes, and the ability stimulation experience finally becomes normal.
The line of sight is focused on a certain part of the wooden pile. Although the angle of view continues to expand, there is still a large distortion blind spot.
But at least we can rely on vision to determine the location of the target.
Next is the slashing test.
Just like the introduction given by the guild, whether the hands drastically change the direction of the slash, or step, retreat and roll, the body can give an extremely obvious response.
Rather than seeing through it, you can only make minor adjustments.
Whoosh! Bang!
Li Fan slashed out with his sword.
The blade of the wooden knife ran along the center of the wooden pile, leaving a straight cut mark.
"It would be nice if the weak point's special effect level could be lower."
Li Fan expressed his feelings.
If the activation intensity of a pain bead is level 6, Li Fan feels that level 4 or level 5 is suitable for him now.
However, the higher the level, the closer the focus effect will be, and naturally more precise slashes can be completed, so I decided to get used to it first.
After all, it is not easy to reduce the motivation ability.
About half an hour later, Eudora and Dilu, carrying two large bags, returned to the Flame.
"We went shopping, meow! We bought warm cotton clothes, snow shoes, and a lot of chili peppers."
Dilu shouted.
"I still have the mining pickaxe. I heard that there is a giant sword that can grow on its own in Bokai Village. I'll dig it out a few times."
Li Fan asked.
"The giant sword is in the tourist area. You don't need to bring your own mining pick. It seems that you can dig it with 5000z."
Eudora informed.
"We haven't seen each other for a few years. The village chief's mother-in-law is getting more and more business-minded."
Li Fan said, raising the training wooden sword again.
"I almost forgot that you visited Bokai Village. I'm a little tired, so I won't have dinner. I'm going to rest first."
Eudora said, stretched herself out, opened the hatch, and entered the cabin.
"I didn't even eat dinner. This is a bit serious."
Li Fan said worriedly.
"Hiccup~"
Dilu burped and quickly covered her mouth.
"My day, you two went out for a big dinner, didn't you?"
Li Fan asked.
"No~ hiccup~ meow."
"Look at how full your belly is, and you still say it's not there."
Li Fan put his hand on Di Lu's belly and rubbed it.
"I was the only one who ate it, meow! Eudora didn't eat it. She said she would feel very comfortable if she saw me eating it."
Dilu's cat ears drooped.
"Has the name been engraved on the soul hunting monument?"
"Yes, meow but"
"What happened? Someone came out to stop it?"
"No, meow, Eudora not only engraved her father's name, but also her own."
Di Lu said helplessly.
"This mentality is not right."
Li Fan said worriedly.
"But Eudora is very calm. She said that if you can die a worthy death, it is also a hunter's pursuit."
Dilu sighed and informed.
Li Fan knew where Eudora's pain came from.
It stands to reason that the team already has the ability to fight the Steel Dragon head-on.
However, due to the security considerations of the entire world and the responsibilities of hunters, the team cannot take action at all.
In the plot, the Steel Dragon did attack Dongdoruma, but based on the current timeline, it is impossible to estimate the exact time.
The reason why Li Fan took the initiative to investigate Steel Dragon actually had another underlying factor.
That is to try to avoid or prevent the main plot. After all, the two protagonists have mysteriously disappeared.
Li Fan had dinner and the training to adapt to stimulate his abilities didn't end until late at night.
Early the next morning, Li Fan got up and came to the deck and found that Eudora had already started training.
"morning!"
Eudora greeted energetically.
"Morning! By the way, I have good news to tell you about the Wind Scroll Armor."
"What is it?"
Li Fan explained the excitation principle of the unity of wind and thunder.
"One is worth three! Previously, each piece of equipment only had one level 2 inlay slot. I thought the expansion performance of this set of armor was poor."
Eudora was deeply surprised.
"No! I have to go to the workshop quickly to inlay decorations."
"Ahem."
Li Fan coughed twice and picked up a toolbox with a diamond logo.
"Hmm what do you mean?"
Eudora still didn't know why.
"This is a tool box for disassembling and assembling decorations. With me here, there is no need to go to the workshop."
Li Fan introduced.
"Wait for me if you're so awesome!"
Eudora ran into the cabin and soon took out the wind speed suit.
"Let me give you three endurance beads first. One is enough!"
"No problem, it's up to me!"
Li Fan picked up the iron pliers and hammer and started working immediately.
Boom! Boom! Dang! Dang!
Dilu was shaken awake in the hammock in the cabin.
The chef team also ran out quickly to observe the deck.
