Chapter 372 The Keyword Is "Light"!

As Mr. Victor said.

One of Marger's dreams was to create the "Armstrong Spin-Accelerating Armstrong Cannon."

Don't worry about why he did it, he just wanted to do it.

Nanami looked at the painting on the drawing with imaginary eyes, and asked, "Isn't this your idea?"

Henry shook his head slightly guiltily: "Yeah, I'm not that creative."

Li Nuo scanned the lines on the drawing.

Marger's painters are of the hopeless kind.

Usually when Brother Ma makes drawings, Li Nuo and Victor assist him in drawing.

"Marger?"

"Who?"

Seeing that Henry didn't know Marger's name, Li Nuo closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, Long Aotian's pretentious aura burst out from his pupils.

"snort."

"Ahhh!" Henry understood instantly: "Osbaldo!"

Li Nuo's brows trembled. Marger was a scholar in "Cyberpunk". The so-called scholar line came from "Octopath Traveler". In that game, the protagonist of the scholar line was "Osbaldo". It can only be said that Marger awakened strange memories.

So Li Nuo picked up the pen and drew Marjie's face in one minute.

Henry was surprised by Li Nuo's painting skills and nodded at the same time: "Is it him, your friend?"

Li Nuo nodded: "That's right."

Cha Bai was sitting in the back room trimming his legs at this time. He shouted outside: "If he has done anything sorry for you, please forgive me."

In her mind, Marjie and Li Nuo were often the ones causing trouble when they ran out alone.

Henry smiled and said: "No, that gentleman is my assistant..."

Here's the thing.

One day, Marger found out Henry's address.

"That gentleman said that he wanted to make a weapon that could allow the Beast Ears to protect themselves, so he came to ask me for advice."

Henry was lost in memories.

"But after that, we forgot about the Beast Ears and devoted ourselves to work. How can I say... He is a genius. Once, I drank too much in a special tavern in the city, and he Go pick me up and draw the prototype of this drawing when you come back.”

Henry took a sip of hot water and let out a sigh of relief.

"Using the principle of collision to accelerate the movable movement, and using the monster's explosive flames as an igniter, I never thought of that before..."

When he said this, he looked at everyone excitedly.

"Why do you look at me like that?"

"It's okay..." Chen Shou said, "I just think that your brain circuit..."

Nanami stopped directly: "You are also mentally abnormal."

"Hahahaha~" Henry laughed cheerfully: "Yes, I am just a scientific researcher who wants to study the infinite possibilities of weapons and equipment. Chuangjie Mountain contains various possibilities, but...since the old president took office , the "large-scale hunting" of monsters has begun. Regardless of monsters or animal ears, this possibility is slowly disappearing. The ecosystem of Chuangjie Mountain is destroyed by adventurers and desperadoes year by year. Sooner or later, this place will change. It became a barren land.”

"That's true." The security officer summarized from the side: "Since the old president took over, the division of responsibilities for hunting monsters has been strengthened."

"What responsibilities?" Chen Shou asked.

"That is to say..." the security officer explained: "Rewards for hunting dragon creatures, and cooperation with the principality to introduce adventurers to manage the ecological crisis in Chuangjie Mountain."

"To put it bluntly, it's just killing monsters unscrupulously, right?" Chen Shou said.

"Yes." The security officer nodded: "Fifty years ago, before the old president took office, the main job of the Adventurer's Guild in Chuangjie Mountain was to cooperate with the principality to collect materials that could be taken out. In the past fifty years, it has transformed into an indiscriminate one. Kill the monsters, regardless of whether the corpses of dragon creatures can be taken out of Chuangjie Mountain."

Henry said: "Actually, according to the laws of Chuangjie Mountain, it is simply a meaningless massacre. There are more and more humans, and they are also squeezing the living area of ​​the Beast Ear tribe in Chuangjie Mountain."

"Stop it." Li Nuo immediately brought back the topic and asked: "Your assistant is 'Humph'. Where did he die?"

"He's gone," Henry said.

Nanami's heartbeat quickened: "Why are you leaving?"

Chen Shou had an uneasy feeling that it wouldn't be anything serious.

Henry looked down at the food on the table and shook his head slightly: "He insisted on paying the bill that day, but I should treat him, so the two of us started fighting..."

"Okay." Li Nuo expected it and asked again: "Where did he go? No clues?"

Henry said: "Maybe he went to collect materials to make Armstrong."

Li Nuo: "If there is anything else related to him, let us take a look."

Henry stood up, rummaged through the boxes, and said, "He always draws some strange things at home. I don't know if they are of any use to you."

The uncle took out a notepad.

After opening.

Henry thought thoughtfully: "I've never heard of a witcher, but it must have caused him great psychological trauma. Sometimes he would wake up from nightmares, saying that the witcher was using him to experiment with weapons again. , I asked him who the witcher was, and he said he didn’t know, maybe it was something hostile in his memory.”

He looked at everyone: "Do you know about demon hunters?"

Li Nuo quickly closed the book: "I don't know."

Nanami and Chen Shou looked at Li Nuo as if they were looking at a devil.

What on earth did you do to Marger?

Henry said: "I'm not kidding you, there are only two places he may go, one is to look for materials to make cannons, and the other is to look for clues to restore memory, but I have a way..."

"Well, let's make the 'Armstrong Spin-type Accelerated Armstrong Cannon'." Li Nuo said: "That guy will be attracted by powerful weapons. This is the sense of smell that only craftsmen have."

Henry nodded: "Brother, do you know him very well?"

Li Nuo: "Absolutely."

Henry asked again: "The witcher..."

"Okay." Li Nuo said, "There's nothing else to do now anyway. Uncle, please help me."

He said as he placed the large bag containing various materials on the table.

"Uncle, relax first."

While Li Nuo was speaking, he raised his palm to release the [Seal of Yaksi].

Uncle Henry's eyes were dull.

Li Nuo stared into his eyes.

"Did you tell lies just now?"

"No."

"What was the opportunity to build a cannon?"

"Protect the Beast Ears..."

At this point, Henry's pupils began to tremble.

"Your craftsman skills?"

At this time, Henry regained consciousness.

"When I was young, I was called the 'Artisan of Light.'"

…

"Craftsman of Light?"

Elysee, who was sitting on the cable car, was puzzled.

She looked at Xue Li sitting opposite.

"What the hell is that?"

"It is said that you can see the future of equipment." Xue Li flipped through the information and said: "Once the most promising craftsman of the Adventurer's Guild, he gradually became confused because he was cheated on too many times. He later became a useless person."

The bald adjutant touched his bald head, looked at himself reflected in the glass, and sighed: "A wise man stops in love."

Everyone looked at him.

This joke is no fun.

"Forget it..." Elise was disappointed: "I saw the Light Craftsman in the biography, and he also said that he asked him to help make some equipment..."

"Hahaha..." The old president sat in the back and said with a smile: "Mr. Henry... I had an impression of him. I also inspected this genius at that time, but later found... he seemed to be almost interested..."

"Why are you following the old president?" the bald adjutant pointed at the old guy in disgust.

"The old president is familiar with the second floor and is the best guide." Xue Li said: "Since your job is to help the principality investigate the problem of loose barriers, you need the old president."

The bald adjutant wanted to say something, but was stopped by Elyse.

Fifty years ago, there were not so many adventurers in Chuangjie Mountain. It was the old president who promoted the status of the principality and adventurers in Chuangjie Mountain.

I believe the old president is right.

"girl."

The old president squinted his eyes and looked at Amanda sitting opposite.

"Not long ago, there was a young man with a cane. He smelled like a brave man."

The old president closed his eyes, smiled, and took a deep breath.

"I originally wanted to pay attention to that young man, but until you showed up, your big sword showed signs of slaying demons."

She was referring to Amanda's dragon-slaying sword.

"Girl, are you the savior or the devil?"

"..."

Elise turned her head to look at them.

"This is a heroic mercenary who resisted the Demon King's army. He should be considered a brave man."

"Haha...hahaha~ That's good, that's good."

The old president nodded.

"If you are the savior, go kill the Dragon Girl."

Xue Li was curious: "Old President, isn't that the world-destroying creature that came out of the door fifty years ago?"

The old president was silent for a few seconds.

"Probably still alive."

…

"What a coincidence, I am the Warrior of Light." Li Nuo joked with a smile.

"I am really a craftsman of light!" Henry was unhappy.

"I am really a warrior of light too!"

"Brother... you are a good person, but there is a dead air in your eyes, but it has nothing to do with the light."

"Do people who are dying of starvation have anything to do with light? Are the only poor people left with naked craftsmen?"

"I'm serious!"

These two officially verified "lights" do not believe that the other is a "light", which is very magical.

Henry said: "I can see the future of your equipment. My eyes are a light, so wonderful! Ah! For example!"

He pointed at Li Nuo's priestly black coat.

"An outfit with perfect resistance to curses!"

Then he pointed at the brown-white halter top.

"It's shameless, but it's clothes that can increase the power of magic!"

Finally, Henry pointed at Nanami and yelled, "Flat chested!"

Li Nuo applauded: "Awesome!"

Nanami: "It's just me and it has nothing to do with the equipment!"

A crisp voice came from the kitchen: "I think it's because there is a sponge pad inside the underwear, so it looks larger by at least one cup size."

Nanami lowered her head. In fact, the [Random Card] drawn in the previous mission rewarded a useless underwear with an increased cup size...

Butterfly walked out of the kitchen, covered in white unclean things.

"Mr. Li."

Die held on to the poisonous demon bird's ○○ with one hand and smiled in a particularly unhappy manner.

“Can I fucking curse?”

This girl said dirty words for the first time.

"I remember you said you wouldn't let me be a killer. I was quite touched at the time. I was such a fool. How could I forget that you were a bastard? Compared to killing people, is it the way out for a girl like me to be exposed to the underworld all day? Ah? You might as well let me wear high heels and miniskirts and hold a cigarette on the street, find a man to knock on the car window, and say "Sir, night three hundred" at the beginning. At least that thing will only splash my mouth, but this thing splashed all over me, bastard~"

These words made Nanami and Chen Shou look at Li Nuo at the same time, then look at Hui Die, and sigh: These two are alike.

"Oh no..." Li Nuo corrected her: "With your conditions, an overnight stay will cost at least 8,000."

Cha Bai stared at Li Nuo with wide eyes: "Why do you look so familiar?"

Li Nuo quickly changed the subject: "Die, you can't come recently, just cook more food, we can take it with us as a small lunch box, and eat it at any time. I'll give you money."

"You are really greedy for money to seduce a young girl like me who has just come of age to have close contact with the lower three roads, Mr. Li, be careful that the Pope will appear in your dream." Die gave him a middle finger, and then asked Henry: "Sir, there is a beast-eared tribe in your kitchen, is that food?"

"Ah?" Henry was stunned: "Don't touch him! He is a thief nearby! Sometimes he comes to me to help me make things!"

Five minutes later.

Henry let go of the beast-eared kid who had been stripped naked and waiting to be depilated, and came back with a forehead full of sweat.

"Then let's make a deal." Li Nuo said seriously: "We will help you find the materials to make the 'Armstrong Rotating Armstrong Cannon', and you will upgrade our suit for us. Since we saved you, we will give you a discount."

Henry shook his head: "It's a bit difficult."

Li Nuo: "In this case, what will you use to make up for the gap without a discount?" He said with his fingers and made a circle: "Equivalent exchange."

The security officer whispered to Chen Shou: "Has this guy always lived like a bandit?"

Chen Shou: "It's much better now."

At this time, Henry took out a book from a pile of papers, and said while thinking: "How can I charge money for saving your life? I will solve all problems for free."

Henry is a good guy.

If he was a little bit bad, he would not always be cheated, let alone be beaten by his peers to no living space.

Many people say so.

Henry made a list of ways to transform their equipment.

The materials on the monster have many uses.

Scales and skin are used to make outerwear, internal organs are processed into firearms, and bones are transformed into weapons.

Li Nuo and Cha Bai's clothes have too low impact resistance, so they can be processed with the scales and skin of the Overlord Fire Dragon. Nanami will redo the guide device of the manipulator, and Chen Shou will customize the long-range weapon.

The most time-consuming thing is to repair Cha Bai's weapon. Using [Golden Hair of the Great Witch] can indeed strengthen the hammer, but Henry needs to think carefully about how to do it.

All processing costs are paid by Henry himself.

When Chen Shou felt that he was so poor, Henry didn't care: "I still have a house on the first floor of Chuangjie Mountain."

This is like a white-collar worker with a monthly salary of 20,000 pitying a flower-selling lady, but not knowing that the lady has six houses in the city.

In fact, most of the aborigines living in Chuangjie Mountain now are descendants of those who stayed here when Chuangjie Mountain ascended hundreds of years ago. They are incompatible with the outside world. Because of some rules of Chuangjie Mountain, it is often difficult to return to their hometowns after leaving here, so most people choose to stay in Chuangjie Mountain. After all, the outside world may not be beautiful.

"It's as simple as this..."

Henry flipped through the big bag of materials for Li Nuo and others, and he found the explosive egg of the Overlord Fire Dragon. Although it had been sliced, the size of the explosive egg was still amazing.

Uncle Henry was delighted: "Incredible, you actually picked the eggs of the Overlord Red Comet Dragon from its roots!"

Chen Shou's eyebrows trembled: "Can you not make such a vulgar speech so passionately?"

"There is another thing that needs your help." Li Nuo took out the blueprint of the [Creation Mountain Atlas] and the fragments of the [Emile Mask] and placed them on the table.

"Oh, I see." Henry's eyes flashed, really flashed, and said: "The effects of the two can be combined."

He calculated the time.

If you don't treat yourself as a human, two days will be enough.

Li Nuo plans to ask Mr. Victor for help (stealing skills), so one day will be enough.

Then, Uncle Henry listed the things he needed.

In addition to the [Overlord Fire Dragon]'s explosive eggs that he already has.

The rest are the giant ○○ of [Casey Sand Dragon], ○○*10 of [Fossil Wing Bird], and the rainbow cockscomb of [City Flirt Bird].

The most difficult one is the explosive egg of the Overlord Fire Dragon.

The rest are relatively easy to deal with.

However, Li Nuo noticed something unusual in this incident.

…

"No branch quest was triggered."

Li Nuo rode on the back of the Eagle Dragon, galloping through the woods. He left his priest's coat at Henry's place and wore a junior adventurer's coat rented from the guild.

"Wait, what do you mean, what branch quest?"

The security officer sitting behind him was puzzled.

Li Nuo ignored him.

Cha Bai chased after him from the other side riding the same Eagle Dragon. She was wearing a [Witch's Long Dress], her hammer was left at Henry's place, and now she had a [YoRHa Tactical Knife] on her back.

"You mean, no branch quest was triggered, which means Mr. Henry is..."

"Part of the hidden worldview." Li Nuo took over the words and said: "It is known that this world has a hidden worldview, and we have triggered a hidden event, that is..."

[Optional Mission: The Collapse of Chuangjie Mountain]

[Mission details: This mission is a challenge mission. There are abnormal phenomena on every floor of Chuangjie Mountain]

[First level: Overlord Fire Dragon]

[Fire Dragon has been solved]

[You may have prevented the future danger of the collapse of Chuangjie Mountain]

[Second and third levels: a certain player]

"Now we can confirm that a certain player is Marjie. But we don't know what Lao Ma did." Li Nuo thought and curled his lips: "Henry is a good old man, there is no problem, unless his name is O. Henry, but [ The Seal of Yaksi will not deceive me. At least this guy has no ill intentions.”

Cha Bai: "Anyway, let's follow Henry's mission guidance first. Marger may actually be looking for those materials. If there are no good clues, just use the [Shuttle Gate]."

The rules of Chuangjie Mountain restrict space spells, and although the ability of [Shuttle Gate] can still be used, it only guides them to a suitable area, and does not directly hand over the answer.

If Chabai uses [Circle of Destiny], the success rate of guidance will increase.

But she had to keep the [Ring of Destiny], especially after facing the Golden Lion, she became even more determined, and she couldn't use it casually unless absolutely necessary.

After all, waste is shameful.

But Li Nuo was not too worried about the "Wrath of Bahamut" people catching Marger.

1. [Rescuer] needs to be rescued before it can be activated.

Two, they don’t understand Marger.

Once Marco regains his memory, the damage caused will take a lifetime to make up for.

Li Nuo found it interesting when he thought of the scene where Lillian had a piece of shit splashed all over her head.

"Li Nuo." Cha Bai asked uneasily, "That craftsman of light..."

"Don't take it seriously." The one who spoke was the safety officer. He held Li Nuo's waist and said during the bumps: "There are a total of twenty-seven people with the title of 'Light' in Chuangjie Mountain. What a title." Just listen, there is no need to take it seriously, but he is indeed famous for his craftsmanship.”

Li Nuo took out the second-level "Adventurer's Code" and opened the dog-eared page.

"As mentioned in the book, for example, there are fifteen temples found on the second floor of the Trial Ancestral Hall. Only one of them is truly useful. The rest are nothing more than decorations that deliberately make things difficult for people and do not give good things."

Long grass leaps into the air.

The Eagle Eagle flew over the thick tree trunk, landed on the ground, kicked up dust, and continued to fly.

Their target is the Earth Sand Dragon.

As early as an hour ago, Li Nuo smiled and dragged the security officer to the Adventurer's Guild, asking the security officer to register himself as an adventurer. In this way, they would not have to poach all the time, but could borrow openly and honestly. Mission accomplished.

The materials listed by Henry require hunting monsters. These hunting targets can be found in the guild's general task list. Among them, the Sand Dragon and the Sao Bird are closest to Henry's residence.

Li Nuo and Cha Bai are in charge of these two.

The fossil winged bird is in the hilly area to the north, and Nanami and Chen Shou pass by.

Personnel allocation is Li Nuo's decision.

Don't think that he has any deep thoughts, he doesn't deserve it, he just thinks that Nanami and Chen Shou are both complainers, and the security officer is also a complainer. You know, it is enough for a team to have one person who is responsible for complaining.

In addition, the security officer was a human navigator. Li Nuo was tired of hearing Chen Shou and Nanami's complaints and wanted to get some fresh blood, so he and Cha Bai decided to take the security officer with them.

In order to make up for the personnel balance, Li Nuo gave the Dragon Fighting Poké Ball to Nanami.

In his words: "This fighting dragon will listen to anyone but me."

He also told Nanami that Dragon Fighting is extremely powerful in immediate combat and should not be released unless absolutely necessary. After all, the time it can appear in this world is limited.

"It's not far ahead."

Li Nuo inhaled hard and felt a particularly strong earthy smell.

Cha Bai asked: "Besides us, there is another team that has taken over the task of Tusha Dragon, right?"

Li Nuo said "hmm".

Starting from the second floor, the monster's intensity surged.

Adventurers can take over multiple task commissions. If the bounty is distributed unevenly, it will be compensated by the principal's allocation.

Li Nuo put away the book and stopped the Eagle Eagle Dragon. He saw the footprints of many people walking on the ground.

"Speaking of which, there are so many adventurers."

"If it weren't for the massacre order issued by the old president, I'm afraid Chuangjie Mountain would still be lagging behind." The security officer shrugged his shoulders: "Have you met the old president?"

Li Nuo thought of the old lady he saw in the Adventurer's Guild on the first floor.

"That person has made great contributions to Chuangjie Mountain. Because of the laws of Chuangjie Mountain, this place has always been regarded as a place of exile for prisoners."

The so-called rules refer to the rules set by the great mage who created Chuangjie Mountain three hundred years ago: living creatures that emerge from the "Celestial Sphere Convergence" cannot leave Chuangjie Mountain; in order to avoid resource wars, armies of more than a hundred people cannot enter Chuangjie Mountain. Boundary Mountain.

Li Nuo thought about what he saw in the new code.

In fact, broken down into three rules, there should be three: people from the principality are not allowed to station a large number of troops, living creatures born from the "Celestial Sphere Convergence" are not allowed to come out of the mountains, and evil things are not allowed to be taken out of the Creation Mountain.

The connection behind this must be the hidden world view.

Li Nuo put aside his thoughts for the time being.

In the distance, there is the roar of artillery fire!

Amidst the continuous explosion of artillery, an adventurer named Jahel rushed out of the smoke.

"Found the footprints."

He used a microphone to call his teammates within twenty meters, and pointed at the weird magic factor area that he could see with the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of cannon fire came from behind, and two adventurers responsible for long-range attacks, holding rotating magic electric shock cannons, bombarded one after another in the direction pointed by Jahel.

A roar shattered nearby trees.

In the area hit by the shells, a space door opened. The dragon's claws tore open the door, and the rock-covered dragon head crashed out, knocking away the nearest Jahel.

A crack!

An adventurer on the side was holding an Odachi. He pulled out the sword and struck it on the hard dragon head. The blade shattered with a bang.

The adventurer's eyes were cold, and he turned the handle of the knife, released the firearm in the blade, and ignited the blade. The thermal blade cut off a piece of the earth sand dragon's skin, leaving a scar on his face.

Flesh and blood spread.

At this time, the earth sand dragon spurted out a swamp-like liquid, and the churning stench smoked away the group of adventurers.

Farther away, a girl carrying a trap prop turned over a book and said: "The space dragon of the earth (the earth sand dragon) is timid (Kathy's characteristic), so he runs away whenever he is injured. In addition, the shell is hard, making it extremely difficult to hunt. Gao...hey, can you lure it over?"

When he finished speaking, Tushalong turned around, blocked the main space door, swung his tail, and entered the door with his head, obviously wanting to leave.

Jahel pulled out the big hammer from his back and ran up to him shouting: "Don't let it get away!"

They had been chasing the dragon for five days.

Suddenly, a black shadow passed by Jahel.

Li Nuo jumped over him and threw out the whip blade.

There was a flash of silver light.

The whip blade wrapped around the tail of the earth sand dragon.

Li Nuo stopped, stepped into the mud with both feet, and opened [Aether Blood]! At the same time as the strength of the wrist increases, he raises his left arm to trigger the [Time Hourglass], slowing down the Sand Dragon's departure.

"alright!"

he shouted.

Cha Bai came galloping on the tree trunk from a distance, jumped up in the air and landed in front of the earth sand dragon's portal.

An adventurer shouted in the distance: "Its portal will transport you to a dangerous area! Leave!"

"Oh." Chabai responded.

Look past it.

The Sand Dragon was slowed down by Li Nuo's [Time Hourglass], and now only its head entered the portal.

So Cha Bai pressed his hand next to the portal and closed the portal of Tushosalong.

Bang.

The Earth Sand Dragon's head was "cut off" by the portal.

The headless dragon lay on the ground, twitched a few times, and became motionless.

The hunt was successful.

"Ah this..." Jahel was stunned: "You guys..."

"Here, here!" The security officer roared and rushed over on the Eagle Eagle Dragon. He was surprised to find that the hunt had been completed: "So fast?" At the same time, he took out the adventurer's badge: "One of our own!"

Li Nuo turned off [Aether Blood] and let out a sigh of relief.

Five adventurers came out and surrounded them.

The adventurer had been chasing the Sand Dragon for several days. Li Nuo and the others were chasing the adventurer, all they wanted was to make up for the damage.

But people have a hard time, so you have to leave something for others.

Li Nuo thought this, and in the uneasy and hostile eyes of the five people, he said: "We only want this dragon's ○○."

These words made the atmosphere suddenly overwhelmed.

Jahel: "Dude...are you okay?"

At his reminder, Li Nuo reflected: "Yes... as long as that makes me a little suspicious..."

So he pulled out his pistol: "Keep the money of the five of you, or I will take your ○○ away too!"

…

The hardest part of hunting is often finding the prey.

Compared with the Tusandosaurus, the most troublesome thing is actually the "Urban Bird".

In a small town.

The girl held the city slut's head and sucked it.

"wrong……"

She felt this was not a human thing to do.

So she crawled under the drawer of the abandoned house and found a straw. She inserted the straw into the bird's head and sucked it like juice.

"Human, is that so?"

"Humanity……"

The girl has vertical pupils like a dragon.

She looked at the dead bird that she had decomposed, and finally threw away the straw.

"wrong……"

"How can I become a human..."

She faced the sunshine outside the window, and the dragon scales glowed faintly under her fair skin.
