Put down the fresh rattan helmet on your head, and it's time to make a protective suit against the slime monster acid. This thing is made into a cloak-like shape, and the material is made of local materials and small branches with leaves.
In the northwest of the swamp, that is, outside the southwest of Kendall City, there is a not-too-sparse woods, and there is a path stepped on by people. Zhao Ji knew that the poor people in the city came here and stepped on them occasionally. When people were short of cash and had no money to buy the firewood sold by the chamber of commerce, they would come to pick up the branches here.
When he first came to Kendall City, Zhao Ji discovered that the people here usually used the fuel wood sold by the chamber of commerce next door to the Foxtail Chamber of Commerce.
These woods are cheap, so cheap that everyone can afford to buy them for cooking and cooking, and they have regular shapes and sizes that are easy to transport and add to the stove. This is an eye-opener for Zhao Ji, not that there is anything advanced about it, but that in the world he is in now, which is similar to the Western world, there is such a thing that does not conform to social productivity. You must know that until the first industrial revolution in the UK, there were still many places in the UK that could not provide affordable fuel to all people in the cities.
And in the frontier area of this frontier country under the feudal system with a strong religious atmosphere, there is such an advanced level of social organization.
He secretly asked Jamura about this question, but Jamura didn't think there was anything strange about it. Instead, he told Zhao Ji that the chamber of commerce next door had a large lumber camp located in the upper reaches of the Kendall River. The lumber camp was set up next to a large forest on the border line, relying on the water of the Kendall River to transport the cut. Huge trees. When he met Zhao Ji's caravan, he saw huge tree trunks lined up on the river.
These tree trunks will be salvaged ashore by the employees of the next-door chamber of commerce in the farm on the river bank before reaching the outside of Kendall City. After simple dehumidification and cutting off in those heavily fortified farms, they will once again rely on the vast north of Kendall City for irrigation. The water canal was transported to the north wall of Kendall City, where there was a huge mechanical device that grabbed the large tree trunks across the wall and sent them to the underground processing workshop of the chamber of commerce next door.
Hearing Jamula's narration, Zhao Ji did not expect these. Unexpectedly, there is such a thing behind the firewood blocks used in every household, so much manpower work and engineering facilities. However, considering that the Chamber of Commerce next door has monopolized the fuel market in the entire city of Kendall, absorbing huge monopoly profits, it is quite clear.
When he came back to his senses, Zhao Ji shook his head and let go of some previous thoughts, and concentrated on chopping off some small branches with wide leaves with an axe, feeling that the number was enough to cover him, and then returned to his small camp.
According to the previous sample, Zhao Ji made another one with a smaller circle.
After making several successively smaller circles, Zhao Ji cut many small pieces of fine hemp rope, and used this to tie a large pile of densely packed branches together vertically. The big ones are on the bottom and the small ones are on top, and when it's done it looks like a shrub with broad leaves turned into a spirit.
Zhao Ji had a bitter face, very dissatisfied with the ugly thing he made. But by this time the sun had already set, and it would be dark for some time. There was not enough time for him to organize this thing better.
"I can't help it. It looks ugly. Anyway, after wearing it, only the slime monsters I hunt will be able to see it." After comforting himself, Zhao Ji put the thing on the ground, and then got into it.
Heads protruded from the top circle, and hands protruded from gaps in the branches. Zhao Ji stood up with his hands on the ground, walked a few times, and felt that it was not as heavy as he imagined. He thought it would be too heavy to move. After all, it was just a branch, not hard iron armor nor heavy cooked leather armor. .
Zhao Ji jumped a few times, feeling that it was not so convenient, the branches would mix with each other, but it was not very troublesome, as long as he put in more effort. Compared to splashing acid on your body, this is nothing more than a trivial trouble.
Zhao Ji looked at the sky, and then looked around at the hunting equipment he had prepared in the camp. Considering that yesterday was a small full moon, today will be a brighter full moon, which will benefit his hunting.
Feeling okay, Zhao Ji believes that the next night will be a disaster for the slime monsters in the swamp. He wants to show the slime monsters. Yesterday he was chased out of the swamp like a dog. Today he wants to Kill all directions in the swamp.
However, considering that tonight is a big battle, the necessary food preparation before the battle is the most important. Zhao Ji simply tidied up and arranged the things in the camp. After they were all piled up neatly, he went back to the city first, and came back after eating in the restaurant of the chamber of commerce.
And when he came back, he had to leave the city before the city gate closed after dusk, otherwise he would be locked in the city, and he would have to wait until tomorrow night, and the best bright moon tonight would be missed.
