Mercenaries and Adventurers

Magic weapon.

The armor craftsman pondered for a while, and explained this kind of weapon beyond conventional weapons to Zhao Ji.

The so-called magic weapon generally refers to the collective name of weapons that have added magic materials during the production process of a weapon.

And magic material is a general term for many materials with strange abilities beyond conventional materials. These magic materials are rare and precious, and they are also divided into various types. Most of them can add various strange abilities to weapons, so that a warrior with a magic material weapon can easily defeat enemies of the same level as him.

As far as this craftsman knows, magic materials can be roughly divided into two types, one is natural magic materials, and the other is biological magic materials. As the name suggests, natural magic materials refer to the strange magic materials that already exist in the natural environment. Most of them are produced in similar ore veins, such as the associated magic material that is rarely produced in gold ore veins - gold essence, or iron ore Associated magic materials that can be rarely produced in ore veins - iron essence, heavy iron, etc. But not only metal minerals, stones, icebergs, and crystals seem to have the same associated magic materials.

As long as there are magic materials in the natural environment, they are naturally produced magic materials.

Unlike this is another biological magic material. Animals and plants can produce magic materials, but ordinary creatures can't produce any magic materials. Only monsters, magic plants, magicians, and elves can produce biological magic materials.

Adding these magic materials to weapons can produce different special effects for ordinary weapons. But the craftsman himself said that he didn't know how to make these things. This method of making magic material weapons is in the hands of a small number of magic material craftsmen.

Speaking of this, the craftsman blinked, smiled and said to Zhao Ji, above the magic material craftsman, there is a more powerful craftsman and a correspondingly more powerful weapon, that is, magic craftsman and magic weapon.

Seeing that the other party was careful, Zhao Ji did not accept the other party's tricks. Although he was curious about the magic craftsman and magic weapons, Zhao Ji reckoned that the armor craftsman didn't necessarily know much. He was here to deceive Zhao Ji.

After all, even if this craftsman is highly skilled, he can touch the hurdle of magic material weapons a little bit. But he definitely doesn't know anything about magic weapons.

You can't spend the wronged money.

Giving the craftsman a silver coin, Zhao Ji patted the apprentice Ganna on the shoulder to cheer him on. When walking out of the gate of the armor workshop, Zhao Ji turned to the armor craftsman and asked, "You said so much just now, I wonder if you can make magic material armor?"

The armor craftsman who heard Zhao Ji's question looked at Zhao Ji, and said flatly: "Although I really want to say yes, but in fact I can't do it for the time being. I can't do related manufacturing research without enough magic materials. Hey, say Maybe it’s the only way to do this for the rest of my life. But what about you? You probably can’t afford any magic material armor.”

Zhao Ji touched his cheek in embarrassment, and he was right, he estimated that no matter what magic material it was, its value would definitely exceed his current net worth.

After leaving the armor workshop, Zhao Ji carefully prepared his equipment. He bought a new set of dog-skin quilts from a special grocery store in the artisan district. The original quilts should be kept at home, as it was inconvenient to use every time.

This new set of dog fur quilts has better heat retention, and Zhao Ji found a shop that sold whole fabrics, and asked the merchant's female workers to sew the bottom joint of the dog fur quilt and the side joints on one side firmly. In this way, it becomes a simple sleeping bag that can be opened from the side.

Because the quilt and quilt of this dog fur quilt are sewn together, Zhao Ji can roll it up more conveniently, so that even the volume of the quilt is effectively reduced. Zhao Ji went to the grocery store and bought a cylindrical strong sack. It was very convenient to use this strong sack to pack the rolled up bedding.

Looking at the new simple dog skin sleeping bag,

Zhao Ji thought that he might as well get out the travel backpack he had always needed.

As soon as he thought about it, Zhao Ji went to the shop selling cloth that he had just visited, and asked the merchant to promise to make Zhao Ji a travel backpack specially under the guidance of coins.

There are travel backpacks in this world, but Zhao Ji has seen them in grocery stores, and they are really not very good. They are all simple backpacks for soldiers who travel and fight. Not to mention ugly, the design is not reasonable. The shoulder straps that hang the backpack on both shoulders are not made of large soft and resilient belts designed to fit the body, but are directly hung on the shoulders with two thick hemp ropes.

After Zhao Ji saw it, he wondered whether it would be useless to hang this thing for a long time.

He really can't accept it.

So he specially drew a sketch of a new backpack, and all the points that need attention on this backpack were annotated by Zhao Ji. Zhao Ji explained in detail the uses of each place of this thing to the female worker who made it, so that she would not make a mistake.

Although it was just a simple thing made of thick linen and a belt, after all, Zhao Ji was looking for a small shop, and the thing had to be made for a day or two before it came out. After leaving the address of the Foxtail Chamber of Commerce, Zhao Ji returned to the Chamber of Commerce for dinner.

After lunch, in his room, Zhao Ji carefully inspected his various equipment. You have to rely on yourself to do things, let alone do dangerous monster hunting.

Zhao Ji, who doesn't know what kind of person the Weltz shepherd is, feels that today's hunting should be more cautious, first to see if this Weltz shepherd will cause any chaos to the hunting operation.

------------------------

At the gate of the city, due to the arrival of late autumn and the drop in temperature, the sun in the autumn afternoon is no longer as warm as before. Coupled with the good weather today, there are neither too many nor too few clouds in the sky, making the days around the Harvest Festival the best time of the year.

Zhao Ji didn't dare to let the family teach the shepherd to wait for him, so he came directly after finishing his meal early after packing up his equipment. While waiting for Wiltz's shepherd, Zhao Ji had a heated chat with the city gate guards.

The topic was Zhao Ji's two bags on his back. Two bags hung side by side behind Zhao Ji's back, the smaller one on the left and the larger one on the right. The one on the left is a newly bought simple dog skin sleeping bag, and the one on the right is Zhao Ji's various preparation materials. It contains the food and drinks to carry, as well as the wooden reformed helmet that I bought not long ago, flint, whetstone, and a small wooden box containing anti-rust sword oil.

In addition to these two bags, Zhao Ji also hung a borrowed ax on the bag, a long sword on the left belt, a dagger on the right, and a long spear on the wheelbarrow.

The guards love the way the Zhao Ji quilt is designed and packaged. The side opening design of the simple dog skin sleeping bag makes it easy to get out of the sleeping bag to participate in the battle at any time, and the dog skin inversion design makes the inside of the sleeping bag more warm, and the outside of the sleeping bag can be slightly rained.

Zhao Ji also showed them the simple operation of rolling up the sleeping bag. He grasped one end of the sleeping bag on the ground and rolled it inward. The faster you push, the faster you roll. Finally, the whole sleeping bag becomes a cylinder. Zhao Ji put the thick linen bag that was packed in the sleeping bag on the sleeping bag.

The whole movement didn't take thirty seconds, which surprised several guards who were watching, and they all thought this thing was good.

Just when Zhao Ji was talking to the guards that he had another kind of cowhide for a better backpack. The Shepherd Wiltz has arrived.

The young shepherd walked over with two younger male and female assistants who were not even trainee shepherds. At this time, the shepherd of Wiltz was wearing a short robe that was much simpler than the traditional priestly robe.

The so-called short robe is to remove the hem of the long robe, leaving only the place that reaches about the upper part of the calf, and also removes the hood of the long robe, leaving only a round collar on the neck. Moreover, the very cumbersome large sleeves of the robe were also shrunk into the compact and convenient appearance of ordinary sleeves.

The other two assistants brought by Wiltz's shepherd were dressed the same as him, except that they both carried two large backpacks on their backs, which should be their preparation materials. But Zhao Ji didn't see anything else.

Interestingly, all three of them held a long staff each. The whole body of Wiltz's shepherd's staff is made of metal. The bottom of the staff is prismatic blunt thorns, and the upper part is an abstract metal ear of wheat. Zhao Ji secretly estimated the weight of the metal long stick in Wiltz's shepherd's hand, but seeing the way Wiltz's shepherd's hand held the staff lightly, Zhao Ji guessed that the staff should be hollow. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a not-so-strong Wiltz shepherd to be able to pick up this long metal staff.

After all, the sword of the captain of the city gate guard next to Zhao Ji is not as big as the metal staff of Wiltz's shepherd, but what kind of physique is the captain of the city gate guard? , People make the big sword.

The long sticks held by Wiltz's two assistants are much more normal. Although the head and bottom of the stick are still metal, they are much smaller in size. The head of the stick is not a metal wheat ear, but a slightly thicker The original board, on which were written some warning mottos of the Saturnalia Church, and the body of the rod was made of wood. Looking at the texture of the wood, Zhao Ji estimated that it should be made of high-quality wood.

Zhao Ji looked at the three of Wiltz's shepherds who came over, waved hello, and muttered in a low voice: "I thought I was alone, so I brought two younger brothers with me. It's quite a big show."

"Good afternoon, gentlemen. Brave Kiel, I'm not too late, am I?" Wiltz shepherd smiled and said to Zhao Ji and the city gate guard next to him.

Zhao Ji shrugged: "It's just in time, let's go now. Time is limited and there is a lot of work, so let's leave the introduction of these two on the way, how about it?"

Nodding, Wiltz shepherd smiled and said, "We listen to you. Then let's set off now."

After bidding farewell to the city gate guards, Zhao Ji and his party left the city and walked towards the swamp in the south of the city.

Zhao Ji pushed the wheelbarrow and walked in front of the team. After all, he was going to lead the way, and they had to go to the small camp he had set up at the southernmost edge of the swamp first. He had already made a lot of preparations for hunting the slime monster last time, as long as he strengthened it a little, he could continue to use it.

Walking along a small dirt road heading south, the wheelbarrow creaked while walking. After all, it is a unicycle made of wood, and the wooden axles on the wheels are not as easy to use as metal.

Seeing that all four of you were walking in the field outside the city, Wiltz coughed lightly, introduced Zhao Ji to his two assistants, and also introduced his two assistants to Zhao Ji: "This It's the warrior Joe Keel. Although he is only a few years older than you, he is already an excellent fighter. He can bravely hunt monsters like slime monsters in the swamp alone. In the previous blessing activities, he even got the church The sixth-class security badge issued.

Kiel warriors, these two are the preparatory trainee pastors trained by our church. They were brave and kind children, and this is Tutugo Pai, from the northern province of the kingdom. This is Irina Stewart, a native of Kendall. "

Seeing Wiltz's shepherd introducing his two assistants, Zhao Ji slowed down the speed of the wheelbarrow he was pushing, and responded: "Hello, just call me Keir, and always add the word "warrior." , It’s really a bit embarrassing, and I’m not used to it yet, because I think I’ve only done a little work. I still can’t bear the title of warrior.” At the same time, Zhao Ji complained in his heart that the Saturnalia Church still had a Is it possible that there is also a position for training and preparing for the position of apprentice pastor. Three and a half years of training as a preparatory trainee shepherd.

Shepherd Wiltz smiled and said: "The title of warrior is unanimously recognized by the church of Kendall. After all, there are so many people in Kendall City. Only you, the warrior of Keil, have the courage to hunt slime monsters. There is no one in ten thousand." , naturally a warrior."

Zhao Ji secretly rolled his eyes while walking in the front where the others couldn't see. Thinking about complaining: 'This can be called one in a million, you can really brag, but it's just that people with skills didn't think of hunting slime monsters in the smelly and dirty swamp'

Wiltz shepherd then said to his two assistants: "Today the three of us are going to hunt slime monsters in the swamp with Kiel warriors. When you encounter problems and don't know how to ask them, don't do too much. For the extra work, I will complete whatever the Kiel warriors instruct. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Lord Shepherd."

"Understood, Lord Shepherd."

Two voices sounded together, echoing the words of the shepherd Wiltz.

Zhao Ji thinks that as long as he doesn't cause trouble to his hunting activities, you can do whatever you want. It just so happens that I can use the mouths of you guys to promote myself, otherwise it seems that it is not very effective to promote and brag about myself in the tavern, or other people should brag that I should be better.

Just as Zhao Ji was thinking about good things, Tutugo Pai, the boy assistant of Weltz Shepherd, pointed to the wheelbarrow that Zhao Ji was pushing, wondering why hunting slime monsters had to push a trolley there, and there was only one on the trolley Empty bags and a big roll of rope, and nothing else. I don't know what the Kiel warriors want these things for?
