Chapter 893 Useless Things!
As the master guessed, the afternoon summons were a collective promotion ceremony.
The number of people who were finally promoted was more than they expected. There were three hunters promoted to eight stars, Gordon, Ansel, and Julius, who is now known as the "ace".
There were even more people promoted to seven stars, Hayata, Gale, Nadia, and Feddy.
A total of seven people.
In this way, the members who did not get promoted in the three upper hunter teams are actually a minority.
Feng Ying and Aiden are because their strength is far from reaching the promotion standard.
The former has just been promoted to six stars, and there is still a long way to go from seven stars. The latter's combat power when fighting alone is not up to the level of upper hunters. Premature promotion will only harm them.
Hilda and Altman, two eight-star hunters, naturally cannot be promoted to nine stars.
Eight-star hunters are basically the pinnacle of the hunter profession.
And nine-star hunters are also called "masters", and there may not be one in a whole generation.
It symbolizes absolute strength and represents the highest military power among humans.
All the nine-star hunters who appeared after the establishment of the guild were promoted in the golden period of their careers around 40 or even earlier, without exception. No one got promoted by accumulating qualifications.
Hilda, who is over 50 and already at the end of her golden period, and Altman, who is over 60 and whose strength is gradually declining, will never have this honor in this life.
Will, the seven-star spear user at the beginning of the pen, is in a similar situation.
Nearly 50 years old, it is very difficult for him to improve at his peak. From then on, it is nothing more than using experience to make up for the declining physical fitness.
For hunters such as archers, katana users, and double sword users who "have more skills than strength", there may be more hope for further progress, but he is a traditional defender, and physical strength is the top priority.
Whether there is a chance to cross this hurdle in strength and be promoted to eight stars in the future depends on fate.
The three middle-aged and elderly people stood together, looking at the group of young hunters who came forward to accept the promotion, and they sighed at the same time.
"From now on, it's their world."
"When will it be our world?" Feng Ying muttered on the side.
Three middle-aged and elderly people: "."
The ones behind are catching up!
Aiden, the only lower-ranked hunter present, laughed and said, "Three years? Maybe not enough, five years!"
After the promotion ceremony, it was the rewarding session that everyone liked.
First of all, there was a large bonus.
Gordon and his friends had long since stopped caring about the money. Only Feng Ying and Aiden were very happy, as it was a great addition to their wallets.
Except for these two poor teenagers, others were more concerned about the materials to be settled.
With the hard work of scholars day and night, the dissection of the giant horned dragon has been completed.
Unfortunately, the collection of materials was not particularly smooth.
It was obviously an extremely rare super-giant ancient dragon that was hunted, but because the body was too broken and the presence of dragon bone oil made most of the materials unusable.
As a result, the amount of materials that could be used for equipment manufacturing and settled in the hands of hunters was pitifully small.
Even the blood of the ancient dragon could not be collected, and every drop was contaminated by dragon bone oil.
The young hunters were a little skeptical. After leaving the Grand Elder's Palace, they took these greasy materials and came to the dragon craftsman's workshop under the guidance of the master.
After personally inspecting this batch of materials, the legendary craftsman said bluntly, "I can't make any high-quality armor.
As for weapons, due to the presence of certain special ingredients in the materials soaked in dragon bone oil, the weapons made will most likely have the abnormal attribute of "sleeping", but the strength cannot be guaranteed.
Overall, the practicality of the materials is not high. As an ancient dragon species with such strength, it is really disappointing."
Even more disappointed are the hunters.
The hot-tempered Gale verbally insulted the giant halberd dragon that had already gone to the other side, "What the hell is such a big head, useless thing!"
Just when they were discussing how to deal with these precious and expensive garbage, the dragon worker suddenly changed his mind, "Wait, it seems that it is not completely useless.
Many years ago, I designed a heavy crossbow with a special structure, which is highly compatible with penetrating bullets, but I have never found a suitable material.
These giant halberd dragon materials soaked in dragon bone oil may be worth a try."
"Wow?" Gordon smiled when he heard it, "It seems that the materials we were assigned will come in handy."
Ansel's mouth corners rose.
Although admitting this made him feel uncomfortable, in fact, like someone else, penetrating bullets were also his favorite bullets.
However, in his opinion, penetrating bullets should be used for precise sniping at a long distance, rather than "bang bang bang bang" like someone else did.
Seeing her mortal enemy so proud, Gail felt worse than if she had suffered a loss. She stared at the dragon master and asked: "Master, if a heavy crossbow with a penetrating bullet can be made, is it possible to make a light crossbow with a rapid-fire penetrating bullet?"
The dragon master frowned and thought for a moment, "Maybe I can give it a try, but even if I do it myself, the upper limit of this light crossbow will not be too high.
Maybe it will be better than your current Swift Dragon light crossbow, but not as good as the heavy crossbow."
"Hehehe." Ansir laughed meaninglessly beside him.
Win.
Gail was so angry at this guy's weirdness that her liver hurt, but she still begged to place an order with the dragon master.
The others were completely uninterested.
The material of a super giant ancient dragon with a body length of more than 50 meters and a weight of thousands of tons was only used to make two crossbows.
It was a pity
After "dealing" with the materials of the giant halberd dragon that had just been settled, Gordon and his friends said goodbye respectfully and were about to leave, but were stopped by the dragon craftsman.
The legendary craftsman stroked his beard, "The mantis material you sent before is very good, very good. I haven't seen such excellent materials in many years.
The amount of materials is enough to make a set of armor or two weapons. You chose the latter and hope to make a greatsword and a katana, right?"
Gordon Hayata's eyes lit up, and he immediately put aside the regret about the materials of the giant halberd dragon.
Because of the pressure of the giant halberd dragon's attack, they almost forgot about it.
"The two great swords and the katana have been basically made. As I said before, they are excellent. The sharpness of the two weapons has reached the extremely rare purple slash taste.
It has no attributes, but as a purely physical weapon, its power reaches a super first-class level.
Overall, even among the countless weapons I have made over the years, it is one of the top ones."
The more the two listened, the brighter their eyes became.
Especially Hayata.
She was worried that her Xunlong katana could not keep up with her strength and lacked a good enough physical katana.
"But there is a problem now. Among the materials of the mantis you sent, there is a gem. It is called Lixuanyu, right?
I am sure that I can use that gem to slightly increase the hardness of the blade of one of the weapons. (The purple slash becomes longer, and the attack is slightly increased by 320→330).
You decide which weapon to use it for."
"Can it be divided into two and each use half?" Gordon asked tentatively.
".No." The dragon man's face was a little dark.
Put one and half, do you think it's cooking?
Hayata smiled and took out a coin, "Let luck decide, the front side is for the great sword, the back side is for the katana, how about it?"
"Okay!" Gordon shrugged and agreed.
Hayata flicked her finger and tossed the coin, and the coin fell to the ground at a high speed, still spinning, and she stepped on it.
"Do you think it will be the front or the back?" Hayata asked with a smile.
"How should I know?"
"I guess it will be the front."
As she said that, she moved her foot away, and the coin faced up.
