Chapter 67 Research on Thunder Properties

Lone Hu completed the certification with fear.

The team traveled a long distance here, so naturally they were not limited to hunting targets.

There were still three days before the transport ship arrived at the port. With the cat rescue team, it entered hunting mode.

When you are tired, you will be forced to take medicine, and the raw meat will be transported by a cat cart.

This time it only took one day for the mountains of frozen meat to appear again on the ice coast.

Elk, Bobo, and even Sleeping Dog Dragon all chose to escape because they wanted to protect themselves.

The team's hunting efficiency was too high. Li Ming was worried that this ultra-high-efficiency hunting would affect the local ecology, so he consulted Gu Hu.

The other party's reply was that there was nothing to worry about.

Because monsters like the Boomerosaurus, the Tyrannosaurus, and the Icetooth Dragon regularly come to the outer reaches of the Fengdao Islands to hunt.

They killed more than the team, even the cubs would not be spared, but within a month, the ecology of the outer area would return to normal again.

Li Ming felt relieved after hearing this and continued the team's hunting trip.

Three days later, early in the morning, the transport ship arrived at the port.

The shocked crew members came to the shore, looked up at the giant pile of frozen raw meat for a moment, and then determined who was operating here.

After loading the strange dragon carcass and frozen raw meat, the ruthless team began to return home under the welcome of the Guhu and Elu tribes.

At the same time, somewhere the ice crystal rock wall that was frozen by frost and snow suddenly exploded.

An Icetooth Dragon with pure white fur and a pair of amber fangs crawled out of the cave.

Skinny body, damaged carapace, and scarred wounds
There are various signs that the other party hid in a cave to recuperate after experiencing a fierce battle.

Now that the injury is getting better, the first thing to do is naturally to hunt.

Although the movement was a little weak, the Ice-toothed Dragon still jumped to the top of the mountain with a strong posture.

Looking around, the surrounding area was extremely quiet, and not a single prey monster was seen.

Instead, I found frozen bright red blood stains everywhere, as well as fur and animal bones where the flesh had been peeled off.

The Ice-Toothed Dragon's eyes darkened, and then roared.

Eight days later, the team returned to Feiye Fortress.

The frozen raw meat alone is enough to fill five transport trucks.

"Strange, I didn't order so much raw meat."

Upon seeing this, the owner of the barbecue restaurant in the fortress thought that the quantity was mistaken by the delivery caravan, but after asking, he found out that it was brought back by the ruthless team from hunting.

Shui Yun, who was painting at the counter, was very happy to see the ruthless team returning safely.

After paying each person a fee of 6450z, the guild warehouse manager suddenly came and said that there were too many pieces of frozen raw meat, and some of the cold storage could not be loaded.

Li Ming said there was no need to worry, as he would transport some of the frozen raw meat to other places.

Guide the truck to the Maomao camp outside the fortress. At this time, the Meru are cutting the ice crystals collected from the Frozen Islands.

In the sandy plains where the temperature is high during the day, ice crystals with freezing and antiseptic properties are a treasure to the tribe.

After the Meilu people discovered a huge amount of ice crystals on the Frozen Islands, their desire to collect and carry them was extremely strong. Li Ming originally wanted to persuade them to choose more valuable materials and bring them back.

It’s not that the ice crystals are not valuable enough, but it takes up too much space during transportation.

Iron ore, earth crystals, disc stones and other ore materials are all calculated in blocks.

The local ice crystals are the same as the wall, directly based on the surface.

Although this material is extremely convenient to process, transportation is a real headache.

It wasn't until Eller said that he envied the guild's cold storage and that the tribe wanted to build a similar one that he changed his mind.

Since it is located in the wild, the cold storage cannot be built on the surface. The cats have little experience, so Li Ming just came over to give some advice.

Two days later, the strange dragon materials were cut. The team went to the branch to get the material list and went to the processor to discuss the construction of the equipment.

Regarding the creation of the tight syringe type [-], the craftsman in charge of reception, Ailu, was both looking forward to and a little worried.

What I'm looking forward to is that the barrel of this light ballistae is entirely made of strange dragon materials.

Therefore, it can easily withstand the wear and tear caused by the leakage of the energy of the projectile's mine properties when the electric shock penetrating projectiles are fired continuously, thereby achieving continuous rapid fire strikes.

This ultra-intensive fixed-point strike is recognized as powerful in terms of destructive power.

The worry is that this kind of ammunition consumes materials that ordinary teams cannot afford, so I hope they can consider it carefully.

Chuying could understand this, but still insisted that she wanted to build it.

After it was finalized, everyone present looked at Li Ming habitually.

"Well, it all depends on what I do?"

"Guest, don't you have any equipment to build this time?"

Artisan Elu asked.

"No."

"It's okay, meow. No matter how weird the equipment is, our store will do its best to make it happen for you."

Obviously the other party is used to Li Ming's various bizarre manufacturing needs.

“Not this time”

Seeing the expectant look on his face, Li Ming sighed helplessly.

On the way back, he had been conducting research on [Discharge].

It can be achieved, but the consumption is completely out of proportion to the effect.

The small electric arc flying out from the body surface would make you panting from exhaustion if you want to stun a rodent.

Although the optimal output system has not yet been established, the lack of energy-injecting substances alone made Li Ming want to quit.

"In this case, the content of the creation is finalized, Meow, a light ballista, a syringe type, and the remaining materials are used to create cat armor as much as possible."

Artisan Ellu said and recorded it.

"Wait a minute, let's build a right gauntlet."

Li Ming feels that even if the research and development fails, it can be treated as experience accumulation.

"The creation of a single gauntlet appears, meow! Leave it to us!"

Craftsman Ellu was very excited, as if she was waiting for this sentence.

"The pearl-colored outer skin of Strange Dragon is very malleable. Can the electrical bag be completely integrated into the outer skin of the gauntlet?"

"The customer's request is too professional, I'll ask the craftsmen!"

After the craftsman Ellu finished speaking, he quickly ran towards the workshop where the sound of hammering and knocking continued.

Not long after, a stern-faced silver-haired old man walked out to the counter.

"I am Dao Wen, the boss of the processor. The demand for making hand guards is too dangerous, so I want to confirm the situation. Are you Li Ming?"

Dao Wen asked tentatively.

"Have we met?"

"With this kind of armor combination, there is no second hunter in the entire Feiye Fortress. Judging from the team's hunting records, my worries may be a bit unnecessary."

Dao Wen's stern expression was slightly relieved.

If a hunter often fails in hunting and randomly builds equipment to wear, he is basically seeking death.

The ruthless team has never failed, which proves that the opponent's creation needs are really helpful for hunting, so naturally there is no need to worry about the knife pattern.

"It's not redundant. Please explain in detail why this manufacturing requirement causes danger."

Li Ming said and took out his notepad.

"Electrical bags are used in the construction of armor and have a certain effect on strengthening the lightning properties. The principle is that there is a grid on the surface of the inner bag that allows the lightning properties to be temporarily retained and absorbed. However, it must be cut into a single layer of film before it can be embedded on the armor. For weapons applications, the electrical bag is cut open."

"The demand you put forward is to seal and embed the complete electrical bag into the armor. If it is realized, the electrical bag will become an energy storage container that can only be entered and cannot be exited. The injection of lightning properties will not be able to flow out, which will cause It expands. The pearl-colored skin of the strange dragon has strong tensile properties and will expand together with the electrical bag. It will not be unable to expand and be crushed to pieces. However, when the internal energy storage exceeds the limit, it will explode sooner or later. You don’t want to tie a bomb barrel to your arm."

The knife pattern is explained from a professional perspective of equipment creation.

"It's so dangerous." Li Ming's raised corners of his mouth quickly calmed down.

"So you still want to keep building it?"

Dao Wen asked solemnly.

"Yes."

"Okay, your fabricator took it."

Knife pattern confirmed.

"Please do not install any additional protection inside the handguard. It would be better if the skin can be directly attached to the electrical bag."

Li Ming remembered another need.

The corners of Dao Wen's eyes twitched, wondering if it was because it didn't cause enough damage to himself when it exploded?

After calming down for a moment, he confirmed this demand.

"Why does that strange dragon gauntlet feel so dangerous?"

On the way to Maomao Camp, Chuying asked worriedly.

"It just sounds dangerous, like filling up an electrical bag. It's not that easy."

"What if when fighting a thunder attribute monster, it is penetrated and charged?"

Chuying expressed her worries.

"There is such a good thing."

"Uh"

The team walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the Cat Camp.

Li Ming walked to the notice board, pulled down the gunpowder collection notice, picked up a pen and paper and started writing a new one.

A new announcement was posted, and all the cats stationed at the stronghold came to watch.

Thunder bug, hollow fruit, penetrating fruit.

The three main materials for coordinating electric shock penetration bullets have become the main collection targets at the moment.

In addition, it is strange that the Totoro cat armor is being built. Cats who do not have armor yet will be able to equip it in a few days.

"Sorry to trouble you all, this collection is very important for the team's subsequent hunting."

Chuying expressed her thanks.

"Leave it to us, meow!"

"Don't you want any fire herbs? Meow, I collected a lot of them."

"I can have armor soon, nya! I'm so happy."

The cats started discussing in front of the notice board.

Three days later, the equipment built by the team was delivered.

Although I am mentally prepared for the appearance of equipment made from strange dragon materials.

But when she held the tight syringe with a slippery texture and a syringe-like shape in her hand, Chuying couldn't help but ask if she could change the appearance.

Craftsman Ellu said it was very difficult. The hunting weapons were all made according to the guild's design drawings and could not be changed easily.

Chuying could only accept it.

The different shape of the green bear barrel, which was replaced by a tight syringe barrel, quickly attracted many people to watch.

Changing the heavy ballistae to the light ballistae, Chuying still had a lot to adapt to, so she went to the training ground.

On Li Ming's side, he put his right hand into the strange dragon guard's hand.

puff~
The wet and cool feeling makes it feel inexplicably comfortable.

Because of the risk of spreading the thunder attribute, Li Ming did not try it in the hunter dormitory this time, but came to the coast of Maomao Camp.

After loading the fog ball, in addition to material energy injection, the fog ball in the optimal output formula, corresponding excitation materials, and corresponding generation and storage organs are all complete.

"Midoduo, you have to stand farther away from me during this test. In addition, there may be thunder energy remaining on your body. Unless your life is in danger, even if I am injured, there is no need to rush closer."

"Okay meow!"

After the explanation, Li Ming started to try.

pat!pat!
The strange dragon's gauntlet bulged slightly, and tiny bright blue arcs surged on the leather surface.

In the dark cave, Li Ming, who was attached to the roof of the cave, saw darkness in front of him.

He stretched his neck and took a sharp sniff, and various foggy outlines formed by the smell were revealed in his consciousness.

What a well-developed sense of smell, but it’s a pity that it didn’t come out.

Li Ming felt a little sorry.

Suddenly, an extremely unusual outline of black and purple mist was noticed deep in the cave.

The floating black and purple powder was inhaled into his nostrils. After realizing that it was the mad dragon dust, Li Ming, who was crawling on the roof of the cave, turned around and ran quickly.

It's the Black Eclipse Dragon again. Judging from the time of encounter, it should still be the striving individual.

No wonder the strange dragons migrate to the caves beneath the stronghold.

Everyone wants to try it, why don’t you work so hard?

Why do you have to roll it up like this? Oh yes, Black Eclipse Dragon can’t do it without rolling it up.

Perception began to fade, and what followed was the familiar retching phase.

Wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Li Ming stood up and clenched his fists.

Clap!

The small electric arcs densely covered on the surface of the hand guard move in a continuous movement, all converging on the fist.

First of all, the handsomeness level is maxed out, and the feeling of holding the thunderbolt is also quite good.

If it can be transmitted to metal weapons and the monster's flesh is injected into it when slashing, it will be equivalent to having a thunder attribute attack effect.

If you use a thunder attribute weapon, you can probably increase your attribute attack by one level.

Unfortunately, the consumption is still a bit high, and the explosive power is also lacking.

It would be great if there was a Thunder Wolf Dragon's electric storage shell or an Electric Dragon's piezoelectric armor to achieve attribute injection.

Li Ming looked at the electric light surging out of his fist and made an evaluation in his heart.

Due to the lack of energy injection, research on [discharge] is incomplete.

But Li Ming thought it was acceptable. After all, he had achieved the external release of the thunder attribute through hard work and learned a lot of relevant knowledge, which could be regarded as laying the foundation for the application of the fog ball attribute.

The Maomao Camp has a relaxed environment and a strong natural atmosphere. The team likes to rest here more and more.

In the evening, after Chuying Bubu finished training, she decided to go to the wild camp to relax.

Seeing that Li Ming and Mido Duo were also there, they simply had a barbecue party. After the members of the expedition team returned, they also joined in.

Singing and dancing, the scene was very warm.

Li Ming, who went to relieve himself in the bushes, returned and saw blue lights flashing near the camp. When he walked in, he discovered that it was an insect cage brought back by members of the expedition team.

"With so many lightning bugs piled up together, what if they attract the thunder wolf dragon? It seems that we have to build a material warehouse."

Li Ming said, and began to move the insect cage, preparing to take it to a more hidden place to place it.

When the lightning bugs saw someone approaching, they immediately became agitated and began to discharge their electricity in unison.

"I'm warning you, I can eat lightning bugs, but I won't even blink."

Li Ming, who was patiently comforting, suddenly paused when he said this.

He threw the insect cage on the ground and waved his hand lightly.

The fog balls that circled the body three times immediately appeared in an array.

When I saw Marutori's [insulated beak] popping up, an idea came to my mind.
