Chapter 262 If I Had Known that Male Dwarves Would Also Be Persecuted...

Luke was a little surprised by the dwarf's self-introduction.

When Luke heard the giant blacksmith say that he was his junior, he must have thought that he was also a blacksmith.

When he saw the real person, his thick and solid muscles made him subconsciously think that he was a warrior.

But he introduced himself as a gourmet hero?

In other words, he was a cook?

... This was indeed a bit of a coincidence.

The third thing Luke wanted to do when he returned here was to find a chef at the base.

This was the first strong thought that Luke had after experiencing the canteen at the Brave Front.

The canteen at the Brave Front was more like a toothpaste wholesale store than a canteen.

Whether it was a cyborg soldier or a fusion dragon beast, they all ate the kind of toothpaste-like energy paste, which was nutritious and tasted bland.

Fusion dragon beasts could occasionally eat some blood and grass directly, but cyborg soldiers really squeezed toothpaste into their mouths every day to replenish energy.

This is not okay! Absolutely not!

Although Luke is not a person who likes to indulge in food, he can get by with a bowl of porridge and a piece of fermented bean curd, and he can also get by with some biscuits and hot water, but he is firmly opposed to squeezing toothpaste into his mouth to replenish energy!

I eat toothpaste and paste every day, what do I need these teeth for! ?

So Luke plans to add a chef position at the base and find someone to help improve the food at the base.

As a result, the cheap chef sent someone to the door.

... However, are the chefs in the dwarf group reliable?

Luke's impression of the dwarf group is still the same level of stereotype, that is, forging and brewing are the best, but when it comes to food, Luke has no impression at all.

Luke, who let go of the dwarf chef in front of him, did not reveal his thoughts.

Whether as a cook or as a warrior, the impact of losing such a dominant hand must be huge. Even if the other party is a reliable cook, Luke has to wait until the other party's arm is really recovered and eat his cooking once.

After all, even if they are all cooks, the food they make does not necessarily mean delicious.

Shan Xi easily accepted the conditions of being the "first experimental subject" and "keeping it secret throughout the process".

Just as Luke thought, Shan Xi did not want to restore his hands, nor did he not have the assets. At most, he could borrow money from the giant blacksmith, but the problem was that there was no suitable way.

The potion of lizard power was completely ineffective on him. Perhaps it was because of the high drug resistance of the race, or it might be that he was born unable to adapt to this potion.

And installing a mechanical arm or suturing a compatible arm of another person would be an even worse decision for him.

Shan Xi believed that a cook could only really make a good dish if he really touched his kitchen utensils with his heart and body. If his dominant hand was directly replaced with a mechanical arm or even someone else's hand, it would be even more terrifying than cooking with one hand.

Now that it was Grandpa Octo who tied him up, there would be no worries about matching sutures, dark sacrifices, mechanical prostheses, etc. that Shan Xi hated the most.

Soon, Luke appeared at the Brave Front Base with a dwarf and a Cyclops dwarf.

The air was humid and had a slight salty smell... It was the sea breeze.

This was the first change that the giant blacksmith felt when he stepped into the Brave Front Base.

For blacksmiths, the sea breeze was probably one of the things they disliked the most, because the humid air with salt would accelerate the rusting of all ironware.

It was also this sea breeze that made him realize that he should no longer be in Qixing City, and then the "signal shielding" on the wristband made him judge that this should be an area covered by the rules of the monster nest.

Although he had learned some things from Luke in advance, the fact that he came here still made the giant blacksmith curious for the first time in a long time.

With his semi-NPC identity, he could vaguely perceive the difference here, but some specific things still needed to be observed with his own eyes.

Luke did not directly ask the cheap master to be a tour guide, but called the jumping black hot girl to be the old man's tour guide, ready to take the old man around the base in a while.

Everyone came to the treatment room and was soon attracted by the large and small glass jars and culture tanks here.

However, Shanxi did not get the treatment as he wished. Instead, he was looked up and down by Joey, who was testing the equipment here, and showed a disgusted expression on his face.

"How long has it been since you took care of your beard?"

Joey stepped back half a step and pointed at the dwarf's beard.

Luke subconsciously looked at Shanxi's beard, but he did not expect that the dwarf actually stepped back several steps in a row, protecting his beard with one hand, and looked at Joey with a vigilant face. He looked very beautiful from a human perspective, but a little unsatisfactory from a dwarf's perspective.

"What does my beard have to do with treatment?"

"Our treatment device is soaked in whole body nutrient solution. It is best to take off all clothes and clean the whole body in advance before entering, inside and out.

If possible, it is best to solve the problem of defecation and urination in advance, otherwise all the dirt on your body will circulate in and out of your body during the treatment period."

It can only be said that Joey is worthy of being a medical worker. His words are very straightforward and he doesn't hide anything.

"... Then I won't treat it."

What Luke didn't expect was that Shanxi actually held the greasy beard that seemed to be patinated, turned around and ran away -

Then he was directly pressed on the spot by the old man's huge palm, unable to struggle at all.

But when Luke raised his head and looked at the giant blacksmith, he found that he actually turned his face slightly away, while holding back a smile and speaking intermittently.

"Well... In order to restore the arm... It's worth making some sacrifices, puff! Worth it..."

Then after asking for the exact base cleaning area, the old man took Shanxi there without allowing him to resist.

"Is the patinated beard of the dwarf so important?"

Luke was puzzled.

So he asked around while waiting, and then got a definite answer from Doraemon Three Eyes.

Simply put, the patinated beard of the dwarf that has not been cleaned for a long time can often replace the gas mask.

This kind of body hair with extra magic resistance, after years of infection with various drugs, slag, and self-secreted oil, is not only resistant to water and fire, but also can filter out a lot of particulate matter in miasma and poisonous gas.

This is the main reason why they can easily step into the swamps and dense forests and stay in the mines for a long time without getting pneumoconiosis.

In addition, because of the dwarfs' customs, the thicker the beard, the more handsome it represents. Although Shan Xi has no need to start a family for the time being, he still attaches great importance to his appearance.

However, this time, with the old man guarding the scene, he obviously can't escape.

If I had known that I had to sacrifice my beard to treat my arm...

In the bathroom of the base, Shan Xi, who was blocked by the old man and had no way to escape, began to scrub his beloved beard with a sad face.
