Chapter 69: , west of the swamp – ready to hunt

Cut down the small trees near the swamp in the western forest and spread them on the small island between the swamps to the west of the swamp. Pick up the weeds and dwarf trees on the island, and lay them in the mud under the tree trunks. Zhao Ji took out the hidden branch cloak, and re-reinforced it with a rattan helmet.

Many parts of the branch cloak were corroded by acid, and Zhao Ji found some new branches to fill them in. This time Zhao Ji tied it more tightly to prevent the reinforced branch cloak from falling apart during fierce battles.

In order to prevent the shield's leather surface from being damaged by acid, Zhao Ji smeared a layer of swamp mud on the shield, and placed it in a place where it could be exposed to the hot autumn sun, allowing it to dry to prevent acid corrosion.

After finishing his work, Zhao Ji tiredly sat down in the previous camp to rest. Lying on the futon, he thought about how to capture the slime monster. To store slime monsters, you only need a larger crock, and put some mud and water in it. To feed the slime monster, you only need to feed it jumping frogs and mice. These are the predation information of the slime monster that Zhao Ji has seen.

"How to capture it?" Zhao Ji scratched his head, unable to think of a way.

Do you have to set a trap to catch it? The slime monster doesn't look like a monster with enough strength. After all, it's just a pool of round mucus tissue without many muscles to exert force. The tentacles also look more like breathing attack and detection tools, without much strength.

Just don't know how the slime monster's climbing ability is? Make a trap, reinforce the surrounding walls, make a wooden cover, lead the slime monsters around the trap, drive the slime monsters into the trap, and then close the cover?

Isn't this the same step as closing the elephant in the refrigerator?

Haha, Zhao Ji was amused by his own thoughts.

After resting enough, Zhao Ji took an ax and chopped down a small tree again, made many torches with the branches of the small tree, split one end of each torch, and stuffed many chopped wooden sticks , such a torch is probably ready.

Zhao Ji looked at the torch he made. This torch has no fat to burn, so it must be inferior to the previous torch in terms of brightness and duration.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ji decided to make another campfire on the west bank of the swamp, and use this new campfire to indicate the direction at night.

After the preparations were completed, Zhao Ji hid all his equipment in the woods, and went back to the city to have dinner. He hid the equipment because he was afraid that someone would know that he came to hunt today and steal his equipment while he was away.

It's better to be careful and prepared.

The guards at the gate of the city welcomed Zhao Ji's hunting. They said they expected Zhao Ji to eliminate the slime monsters in the city's sewers in the process of eliminating the slime monsters.

Zhao Ji shrugged. It seems that the guards didn't know that the slime monsters in the swamp and the slime monsters in the city's sewers were not the same species. , both slime monsters feel different, not the same kind.

Having a full meal in the restaurant of the chamber of commerce, Zhao Ji also received the blessing of President Foxtail who also ate together.

Zhao Ji hopes that the blessing given by President Foxtail, who obviously has a godly background, can have some real uses, instead of an ordinary blessing.

With the experience of the last time, Zhao Ji didn't think about going out of the city against the flow of people entering the city. Instead, I went to the Table Corner Tavern to buy a marinated leg of lamb, wrapped it in rough paper, and put it in my arms, intending to treat myself as a supper tonight.

Afraid that one serving of meat would not be enough, Zhao Ji bought a freshly baked bread from a bakery on the street. Not all of this bread was made of rye, but half of the black and white wheat was added, and fully fermented , making this bread much better than the dry grain bread made in the kitchen of the chamber of commerce. It's just not as good as the pine nut-flavored bread last time.

In order to taste the taste of this new fresh bread, Zhao Ji took a small bite of this bread.

Just a sip.

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

After the flow of people into the city decreases, it will be dark and it will be time to close the gates of the city. After Zhao Ji greeted the guards, he quickly slipped out.

Far away from the sewage outlet, Zhao Ji, who had just eaten, didn't want to smell the stench.

Back at the camp, after chasing away a fox that got into the bedding, Zhao Ji waited for the dark.

Zhao Ji heard from Jamura that there were no wolves near Kendall City, and only near remote villages in the county were harassed by wolves. For example, Wumi Lake Village is the northernmost village in Kendall County, and the lord Lanisa Knight is a young lady. She led the people to expel the wolves many times, but because of her lack of knight skills, she failed to kill enough wolves in several actions, causing the wolves to collapse and leave the village. The few wolf packs that were lost later gathered into a larger wolf pack, threatening the villagers who went out to work and the livestock they grazed, and even attacked the passing caravans.

Fortunately, Wumi Lake Village is backed by Wumi Lake, and there are not many fields. The villagers live more by fishing, and the annual tax is offset by dried fish. UU reading www.uukanshu. Knight Lanisa is also absorbing the surrounding hunters, trying to wipe out the wolves that harass Wumi Lake Village.

Zhao Ji thought, after that, after his fame rises, he can get in touch with this knight Lanisa. Of course, we have to talk about it after Zhao Ji has become famous. Without fame, he is just an insignificant soldier who joins Knight Lanisa in eliminating the wolves. After he has become famous, he can join in the hunting of wolves as a member with a certain status. If the hunt goes well, people will know his name better.

In this way, with fame, he can wait for work to come to him instead of him looking around for work.

So, everything starts with hunting slime monsters.

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

Night comes fast, and the autumn sun sets earlier each day.

Zhao Ji is ready, wearing a rattan helmet and a branch cloak, holding a shield in his left arm and a spear in his right.

Because he was hunting low-profile monsters like slime monsters, Zhao Ji held the spear instead, and he would use the tip of the spear to stab the slime monsters in a while.

The tip of the long spear brings a longer attack distance, and this evening is the case when Zhao Ji tried this new weapon.

After lighting a new campfire just west of the swamp, Zhao Ji took a bunch of torches and planted them one by one on several small islands. It is convenient to illuminate the battlefield, and it is also convenient for Zhao Ji to use the light brought by the torch to drive away the slime monsters who hate them.

If this trick works well, Zhao Ji can use these torches to provide enough shelter.

Facing the not too bright moonlight, Zhao Ji prayed that today would be the same great harvest as before.
