In fact, although goblin engineering is extensive and profound, a remote place like Ratchet City can have a shitty engineering master.
However, the most basic level of engineering is the same no matter where you learn it. Only when you become specialized can you choose a mentor that is more suitable for you. In order to regain his reputation with the goblins, Lu Li could only bite the bullet and follow the guard captain to learn Ratchet City.
Great engineering.
The guards led Lu Li and walked along the wooden bridge. Along the way, they saw Lu Li's NPCs all looking bad. This was a side effect of reputation and hatred.
After landing on the shore, we turned right and came to a small house with two mechanical dolls outside the door.
The goblins were as tall as the dwarfs, so in Lu Li's eyes, their houses were really just small houses.
After walking in, he had to bend down, but fortunately the sofa in the room could accommodate his butt, so he could straighten his neck after sitting down.
"Oh, Gabby, why did you bring an unwelcome elf to my place?" The goblin engineer had a pair of strange eyes. When he turned his head, Lu Li could see the enlarged eyeballs behind the lenses.
It's just scary.
"Although he is an unpopular robber, he brought gold coins for atonement," the guard captain smiled flatteringly.
"Oh, you want to study engineering?" The goblin engineer's face looked much better, but the contents of the crucible on his test bench had reached a critical stage, so he just threw over a new and not old book, and then added:
"Five gold coins."
Lu Li almost vomited blood. In other places, ordinary life skills learning only cost fifty silver coins, but these money-grubbing dwarves actually cheated him ten times.
But there is nothing he can do about it. If he wants to regain his reputation, these efforts are necessary, not to mention that he is now being monitored by NPCs over level 60, so he can only pay obediently.
System: You gain the favor of the goblins and your reputation reaches neutral.
System: You discovered Ratchet City and gained two hundred experience points...
After hearing the system prompt, Lu Li finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least the NPCs here would not attack him.
Goblins always treated rich men with courtesy. The guard captain saluted Lu Li and left with the goblin musket in his hand.
Lu Li opened the engineering skill book. On the title page was Goblin language outlined in light blue ink. He couldn't understand it at all. Fortunately, this was a virtual game. No matter how realistic it was, it was just a game. He used Study on the skill book.
After that, this elementary engineering skills book worth five gold coins disappeared into nothingness.
The goblin engineering trainer turned a blind eye to Lu Li's learning method. While focusing on his own experiments, he issued an eviction order: "If you have no other needs, please leave. I am very busy now."
"Dear Master, do you have any formulas for sale here?" Regardless of whether it is good or bad, practical or not, every life skills trainer has his own unique formula, and Lu Li knew that the trainer in front of him was no exception.
"Oh, there are three gold coins on the table over there. If you want, just pay. Despicable elf, don't expect me to explain these unique skills to you." Because the reputation is only neutral, the goblin engineer's attitude cannot be said.
friendly.
Lu Li was not angry either, and walked to the dusty oak table next to him, with a few thin pieces of parchment on it.
Structure diagram: Blue fireworks are for entertainment, not a unique formula. There are similar formulas sold all over the mainland, and they are certainly not worth three gold coins.
Structural diagram: Exquisite handmade musket, the damage is relatively average, and the materials required are not cheap at all. What is made is just a bronze weapon. It is also an unused thing. Lu Li shook his head and threw the blueprint back.
After looking at two more drawings, Lu Li was completely disappointed. It seemed that this goblin engineer was only at an intermediate level at best. These drawings were all low-end products that no one cared about. He picked up the last one without any hope.
a long time……
"Master, are all the drawings you have here for sale?" Lu Li tried hard to calm his frantic heartbeat, lest the other party see his excitement.
He was completely overthinking it. Apparently, the goblin engineer could no longer muster the energy to look back. He screamed impatiently: "Which card do you like? Keep the gold coins and get out of here quickly.
Otherwise I will show you the wrath of an engineer!"
Lu Li took the last recipe, quickly took out three gold coins, threw them on the goblin's test bench, and strode out.
Just when I came out of the store, an arrow flew towards me!
Lu Li's heart sank as if he had been exposed, fearing that a group of NPCs would come around and steal his blueprints in the next second.
The crossbow bolt nailed his shoulder, knocking out more than 70 points of his health. The attack seemed to be very good, but for a level 60 NPC, this attack was probably too low.
While he was confused, a group of NPCs rushed over...
Then he rushed past him and hacked to death... a troll on the other side of the mechanical doll.
Lu Li suddenly realized that there were players from the evil camp actively attacking him, and these NPCs were not here for him.
There are some areas and NPCs in Dawn that belong to the neutral camp. Ratchet City is like this. They have no preference for players from the light camp or the evil camp, but anyone who makes an attack in front of them will be considered such by them.
It's a provocation to them.
Just like just now, he went straight to death without saying a word.
A group of level 60 NPCs, and the poor evil camp hunters turned into corpses before they could react.
Hey, not only did he turn into a corpse, he also lost his equipment.
Don't take advantage of the bastard, let alone a pie falling from the sky. Lu Li ran over to pick up the things and threw them into his backpack. Then he rushed out of the town and immediately transformed into a cheetah, carefully avoiding the monsters outside the town and walking along the coastline.
, running towards the direction of Dustwallow Swamp.
"My formula, hey, where is the formula I just put here..." A sharp roar suddenly erupted from the goblin engineer's cabin, "Damn elves, they stole Akal's bomb formula, damn it,
Damn it, guards, guards!"
"Sir, what are your orders?" The guard came over after hearing the news, and was shocked to see the goblin engineer who was almost crazy. The bottles and jars he usually regarded as treasures were shattered on the floor, and various materials and accessories were scattered everywhere.
A move that nearly bankrupted him still failed to quell his anger.
"An elf, the elf that Captain Gabi just brought here, he...he..." Goblin engineer Akal suddenly couldn't continue.
Take away?
Cheated?
Steal?
Goblins are cunning, treacherous, and only interested in profit. They ask for high prices when selling things, but they are very determined to protect the completed transactions.
Among the more classic lines of the goblin race, there is a sentence that says: "Don't even think about taking away even a gold coin from my wallet. There is no word refund in the goblin dictionary..."
Akal sat slumped on the dirty floor. He had to admit that rather than Lu Li snatching, cheating, or stealing his formula, it was better to say that he bought the formula. They were under the control of the system master.
Under witness, you and I completed the transaction willingly.
"Woooooo, the great Akal suffered a loss. Akal sold all his belongings for three gold coins..." The goblin engineer couldn't help crying sadly, and the cry was very sad. The listeners were heartbroken.
shed tears.
Several guards understood and sympathized. The goblins claimed that they only made money but lost money, and losing money was more serious than killing them. No wonder Akal looked so sad.
ps: I suddenly remembered my encounter in Ratchet City. In fact, I accidentally clicked on that alliance player, but the guards didn't give me a chance to explain...
