I draw skills in Monster Hunter World

Chapter 165 Research and Development
At noon, there is plenty of sunshine.

In front of the iron gate of Feiye Fortress, trucks lined up in a long queue.

The team inquired and learned that the heavy rainfall in the past few days has made the roads in the Feishen Community area not very smooth.

When the weather improves, a large number of trucks arriving at the same time are all backlogged at the door.

Among them, the fortress suddenly upgraded its inspection level, further aggravating the congestion.

Li Ming speculated that Puxian probably started making preparations after reading Zuda's secret letter.

Some materials and items that are easy to attract monsters will definitely be excluded.

The body of Thunder Wolf Dragon Huhu No. 3 has not yet arrived, and the hired truck has nothing that needs to be entered into the fortress.

The team decided to split up.

Ni Shuangchuying took the truck to the camp and stored Lanlongjiao.

Li Ming went to the branch to certify the contract, and at the same time went to the processor to plan the equipment.

Cuckoo!Cuckoo!
When passing by the truck, the Marutori carrying the truck became restless and screamed repeatedly.

The coachmen could only feed and comfort them, but a large number of Maru bird eggs still fell to the ground.

Entering the city and arriving at the main road of the fortress, cargo boxes containing artillery shells and heavy crossbows were being carried on carts by the village defense team towards the city wall gates on both sides.

In the branch, a large number of resident hunters gathered, and it was also a busy scene.

From the conversation, it is obvious that Puxian has not yet announced the coming crisis.

Li Ming can also understand, after all, the current crisis is still at the level of speculation.

"Welcome back Li Ming. The fortress has already heard about your achievements in fighting against Lan Long in Jieyun Village. A formal commendation from the guild should be issued in the near future."

Shui Yun at the counter congratulated her.

"So my reputation has changed?"

"Yes, raw meat terminator, mobile slaughtering vehicles are a thing of the past. Now everyone prefers to call you the hunter who cuts through the haze in the sky."

"Well, this is not bad. This is the contract of Thunder under the Moon. The team has certified it themselves. The body will probably arrive in a while. Sorry for the trouble."

"No problem, the situation in the village suddenly became tense. Do you know why?"

Shuiyun started the contract and started the certification.

"I don't know."

"The monsters are becoming more and more active, and the number of contracts has increased sharply. There is always a bad feeling. It's done. This is the team's reward."

Shuiyun took out three money bags.

"Thank you."

After Midoduo put the money bag away, one person and one cat came to the processor.

At this time, a large number of hunters gathered at the door.

Upon inquiry, we learned that the fabrication costs of the processor are being heavily discounted.

However, due to receiving too many orders and operating around the clock, the reception capacity was greatly reduced, so congestion occurred.

Just when Li Ming and Mido were thinking about whether to come back later, the craftsman Elubose's shout came.

"Follow me, meow~"

One person and two cats entered the backyard of the processor's workshop through the side door.

The bellows beat, the bells beat, and the sound keeps ringing.

"I'm sorry, I'm really busy, I can't pour tea for you guys. The shopkeeper will be here soon, so I'll go and get busy first."

After Bosai finished speaking, he hurried back to the front hall and continued to receive the hunter.

Not long after, Dao Wen came to the backyard with a cane.

"Hey~"

He didn't say anything when he came up, but he sighed for a while.

"What's wrong, Grandpa Daowen?"

Li Ming asked curiously.

"I can't say yet, but as a five-star hunter, you will know sooner or later. All I can do now is to gradually lower the price of equipment."

"Oh, that means it's not the lowest price yet."

"Aren't you curious about what's going to happen?"

Dao Wen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Ming was still paying attention to the price.

"It's a good thing not to know something."

"Haha, you can see quite clearly. Tell me, what are you going to build this time?"

"A cloak with an electric shell, a thunder wolf dragon breastplate gauntlet with excessively embedded electric hair, and a heavy crossbow, the King Cannon Thunder Crossbow."

"It's not a big problem, I'll take note of it."

"Aren't you curious about the electric shell cloak?"

"It's a good thing that you don't know some things. Isn't that what you said? Besides, with your building style, I won't be surprised if you want to build anything. Does the King Pao Lei Crossbow need to be equipped with a shield?"

"No, Chuying will have the courage to modify it later."

"Well."

After confirming the knife pattern, continue recording.

"If her Green Bear Barrel is not used, it can be modified into a King Cannon Thunder Crossbow by using a derivative. Their base designs are similar, which can save a lot of materials and the production cost will be lower."

"I'll go back and ask about this. I remember the green bear tube. She has always used it to fire fire bombs."

"There's no rush. The body hasn't arrived yet anyway. If there are any changes, you can come and communicate at any time. Remember to take the side door. The front hall is too crowded. A total of 19000z."

"what?"

"Ah meow?"

Hearing the price, both the person and the cat were a little surprised.

"Small?"

"Uh, no, won't the processor lose money?"

"It doesn't matter. How is Daoji doing in the camp?"

"I haven't had time to go back yet, but I guess it's going well."

"Maybe I was too harsh on him in the past. I still have many things to deal with, so I won't entertain you."

Compared with the tense atmosphere of Feiye Fortress, Warm Ocean Camp is a different scene.

The Cat Defense Team patrols and looks out.

A good harvest is expected in the plantation area.

Looking from a distance, the campground is in full swing.

Except for the blaster's workshop, which was smoking black and covered with slats and patches.

Even if he didn't bring back Maomao this time, Daoji was still sincerely happy.

Because after the crisis in the stream area is lifted, not only the living conditions of local residents will be greatly improved, but the cats will also get a better living environment.

A shack on the coast.

Brother Bear was sitting in a pile on the sand, licking honey from the broken tiles.

Seeing Brother Xiong walking towards him, he was stunned for a moment. After getting up, he did not come close to hug and hug him. Instead, he watched with vigilant eyes.

Until the rodent attached to the body flies over first to confirm.

Brother Xiong flicked his tongue and came running happily.

Li Ming felt that Brother Xiong seemed to have an inexplicable admiration for him.

After a brief reunion, Brother Xiong excitedly lifted the boulder and began to exercise eagerly, as if he was working hard for a very clear goal.

Li Ming looked at the [Overlord] loaded on his chest and felt that it should be the effectiveness of the fog ball.

But when he was testing other monsters on the way back, the dog dragon was almost beaten to death and had no respect or admiration for him.

It seems that there must be a corresponding connection for [Overlord] to be effective on monsters.

As for monsters who don't agree with themselves, the effects they can exert are relatively limited.

Li Ming came to a conclusion.

The next day, the body of Hu Hu No. 3 arrived.

Three days later, all the equipment was completed.Li Ming and Chu Ying completed the collection, took the consolidated information, and started researching intensively.

The progress was much smoother than expected. In just two days, he achieved symbiosis with the lightning bug through the electric storage shell cloak and successfully produced the super electric lightning bug.

After mutual benefit, the relationship between the two parties began to stabilize.

Thunder bugs will live nearby, waiting for Li Ming to call for guidance.

If it is a real Thunder Wolf Dragon, it actually has the important task of clearing the area of ​​Thunder Bug predators, which is Marutori.

But there are only two Maru Birds around the camp: Migugu and Bulala.

If there is plenty of feed, they won't be able to eat many lightning bugs at all.

Since then, the Overlord Thunder Wolf Dragon's [Continuous Super Charged State], Thunder Wolf Dragon's [Thunder Bug Symbiosis], Electric Dragon's [Piezoelectric Energy Storage] [Spherical Electric Field], Flying Thunder Dragon's [Frictional Electricity Storage], and Strange Dragon's [Discharge] 】The six-goal linkage system formed by the team was officially established.

As for the advantages, it is the ultimate thunder attribute increase.

In terms of shortcomings, [Continuous Super Charged State] can make up for some shortcomings in power increase.

But after all, there is still a certain gap between the main defense system used in the past.

However, through long-term loading and adaptation, Li Ming has already fully mastered the technical aspects of the original fog ball.

They will not be forgotten just because they are uninstalled. Many of them have even formed muscle memory.

But the gap between offense and defense was so huge that Li Ming was still not very satisfied.

This set of fog balls is indeed ridiculously strong in terms of increasing the thunder attribute, but it is too passive when attacked.

I pondered hard until late at night, but still had no idea of ​​improvement.

Li Ming looked at the haggard face in his glasses and decided to go out for a walk to change his mood.

Soon, the cat pulpit surrounding the campfire caught his attention.

The main speaker, Cat Kafei, was also Li Ming's old listener when he was in the Meilu tribe.

He sat down behind the cats and listened to the wonderful narration of Ultraman's battle with Guan Yu.

Turning his head to the side, he saw that the black cat listening carefully next to him looked familiar.

Uh, it's Mido Duo. It seems that if you focus on research for a long time in the future, you must do it in a controlled manner.

Li Ming immediately rubbed his groggy head, feeling that the massive consumption of energy had made his consciousness a little blurry.

Not long after, the Cat Hero Trial was mentioned and told.

This is a saying that is spreading among cats in the camp.

Anyone who can return from delivering jars of honey to Brother Bear in exchange for fish at the coast without any signs of trembling on his body will be considered to have completed the Cat Hero Trial.

To Li Ming's surprise, another brave trial location appeared in the storage cave next to the camp.

When Kafei said this, he suddenly became more energetic.

It turned out that not long ago, a gloomy cry suddenly came from the Storage Cave.

A cat suddenly became brave after exploring the depths of a cave at night.

So the cats rushed to follow suit, but because the gloomy meow was too terrifying, no second cat has been able to complete the trial so far.

What is this ghost?

Of course Li Ming didn't believe that there would be ghosts living in the cave.

From a hunter's point of view, he believed that some kind of monster was causing trouble.

So I picked up Midoduo and prepared to go in and explore.

"Well, entering with a hunter is cheating, nya."

Midoduo was a little resistant.

"We're not really here for a trial, we're here to eliminate hidden dangers."

Hu~hu~
As Li Ming spoke, a faint sound of wind came out of the cave.

Paired with the dancing flames of torches at the entrance, it looks extremely eerie.

"It was"

"Lanlong's one-horned cat."

One person and one cat's eyes darkened, and they immediately lost interest.

When they were riding in the truck, the horn tied to the roof of the truck would make a similar sound of wind every night when the surrounding area fell silent.

The driver uncle expressed doubts. In order to prevent the uncle from being frightened, Li Ming could only explain that Mido Duo was snoring.

Now that it is placed in the cave, the sound of airflow is more obvious.

"Looking at it this way, the first cat who entered the cave was not lying when he said he became brave."

Li Ming speculated.

He and Mido Duo even faced Lan Long, and he would definitely not be frightened by a detached sharp horn.

But cats are different. Regardless of the gloomy cave environment, the sensation attached to that horn alone may make ordinary cats feel scared.

Recalling that his elder brother had adapted to the threat by approaching the hot carapace, Li Ming quickly thought of the use of this and the unicorn.

"Are you using it to boost everyone's courage, meow?"

Midoduo was a little surprised when he heard the proposal.

"Yes, many times you have to offset your fear in order to think calmly and come up with the right solution."

Li Ming didn't expect the cats to be brave.

But at least when a crisis strikes, don’t just panic and run away.

"Okay, meow, I will communicate with Daoji and Elle tomorrow."

"Okay, I can't hold it anymore, I have to rest."

Li Ming stretched his waist and entered the wooden house.

When I lay down on the bed and was about to turn off the lights and fall asleep, the little tentacles began to twist eagerly.

"You know how to play with the ball every day, so don't stuff it inside."

Li Ming reminded.

Other mist balls can be said to be fine, but once the [Supersensory Hearing] is inserted carelessly, it will really affect the quality of sleep.

Seeing that the little tentacles had settled down, they seemed to agree to the proposal.

Li Ming waved his hand, and a fog ball that circled three times appeared.

grab, shake, swing
The little tentacles were very excited.

Li Ming has seen enough of this kind of scene where demons dance wildly.

Just as he was about to close his eyes and take a rest, he realized that the opponent had already taken all of the strongest lightning attribute amplification components currently available.

"Yes, switching one fog ball is also a change, and changing six fog balls is also a change. If you can change six at a time when you need to switch between offense and defense, wouldn't the previous concerns be solved? What a genius I am. Have you been reminding me before? I?"

Li Ming sat up, and the new discovery made him unable to sleep.

The little tentacles "folded their arms" and crossed each other in a posture that you just noticed.

However, he soon noticed that the two colored tentacles were entangled and touching each other, and both parties shook it off in disgust.

"Actually, when it comes to switching fog balls, I always feel that the pink tentacle is faster to grab."

Li Ming commented.

The black and purple tentacles immediately trembled at a high frequency, twisted and then became stiff, as if they were completely unacceptable.

The pink tentacles twisted in a spiral and flew up happily.

"But when it comes to accuracy, the black and purple tentacles are still higher."

As soon as Li Ming said this, the situation on both sides of the tentacles was reversed.

"So, you have to practice harder. When you can accurately grab six fog balls and inject them instantly, it will be a small success."

After Li Ming finished speaking, the tentacles on both sides fell silent briefly.

Then various mist balls kept flying over his body. Li Ming lay down on his back and watched with a smile on his face.

In his eyes, the little tentacles become more and more cute.

So I began to think about the cause of tentacles.

He speculated that this should be the product of the emergence of the mad dragon virus and rodent poison in the body.
