Chapter 247 Hunter’s Jewelry
Pandan’s training is in full swing.
Hayata has recognized it to a certain extent and will visit it from time to time with gifts of condolence.
Gordon soon lost interest in the matter of "pork chops training kittens" because he discovered an interesting hidden shop through the introduction of the gangsters of the Shachuan Group.
It was a small alchemy shop.
As expected, the owner of the alchemy shop is an elderly Dragonite mother-in-law.
Ordinary humans seem to be unable to learn this complex and mysterious technology. Even the long-lived dragon tribe can only truly master it after a certain age.
From this point of view, the little fat man from Sinard Village is really talented. Gordon has never seen an alchemist as young as him elsewhere.
“So the ‘beads’ used by hunters are made from alchemy?”
In the alchemy shop, Gordon watched with curiosity as the old woman from the Dragon tribe in the alchemy shop wrapped a translucent crystal-like jewelry in some kind of monster's fire bag.
It then goes through a series of complicated steps, such as adding powder ground from fire dragon scales, soaking it in a special solution, and burning it with strangely colored flames.
Finally, after cleaning the impurities on the surface of the jewelry and simply polishing it, a red orb was obtained.
The color of the orb is as red as fire, and it also has a faint burning breath.
Hold it in your hand, it feels similar to the flame bag, as if all the special substances in the flame bag have been absorbed into the original jewelry crystal.
This is a "fire bead".
The mother-in-law of the alchemy shop is a slow-tempered person. After Gordon carefully looked at the Fire Flame Bead, he slowly explained:
“Hmm, to make jewelry beads for hunters~, we need to use ‘original beads’ and some special, um, special monster materials.
By transferring the special energy contained in the monster materials to the original beads, jewelry beads with special protection can be made.
The number of raw beads that can be used to make jewelry beads is rare, and they are rare to find in big cities. Especially high-quality beads, there are naturally fewer finished products circulating on the market.
In addition, there are not many people who master this alchemy technology, so there is your misunderstanding that "beads are naturally occurring". "
Grandma Alchemist pushed up her glasses, tilted her head and thought for a while.
“However, this statement is not absolute. According to an old friend who retired from the New World Survey Team, the energy in the natural environment there is frighteningly high.
Monsters sometimes even directly condense special crystals that have effects similar to beads. After simple polishing and processing, they can also be used as beads.
Nature is really wonderful. "
"New World? That's really interesting." Gordon handed the Fire Bead back.
“Mother-in-law, in addition to these attribute beads, can you make any other jewelry beads?”
The Fire Bead, which improves fire-attribute attacks, is a slight improvement for Gordon, who uses the Fire Dragon Sword, but it is of little significance—the Great Sword user does not originally pursue the special attributes attached to the weapon.
Grandma Alchemist opened one eye and glanced at him.
“The swordsman uses it, let me think about it, let me think about it.”
She straightened the hairpin on her head and continued: "The most common ones are attack beads, which only require ordinary quality original beads (water-light original beads), scales of big strange birds, and seeds of strange power.
For defensive beads, raw beads and shield crab shells are enough. For physical beads that can increase physical strength, you need the skin of the Big Boar King.
These beads are versatile and made of good materials. Although the effect is not obvious, they are not bad. "
Gordon held his chin, feeling a little moved, "Mother-in-law, do you sell raw beads here?"
"No, you need to find ways to find the monster materials and raw beads. I am only responsible for the alchemy processing."
This answer was within Gordon's expectation.
The alchemist's mother-in-law thought for a while while holding the stirring rod used for alchemy.
“Onslaught beads are high-end decorative beads that are more effective than attack beads. They require higher-level original beads (Yangxiang original beads), as well as fire dragon’s wing claws and ghost medicine. The disadvantage is that it weakens defense capabilities.
Perseverance beads, better defensive beads, require the carapace of the black armored dragon. The disadvantage is that it will reduce the attribute resistance. "
Gordon grinned, it still had negative effects.
The alchemist’s mother-in-law reported the effects and materials of a string of decorative beads, which made Gordon feel headache.
No wonder many hunters don’t use beads. Not only are raw beads expensive, but beads of slightly better quality often require high-level monster materials.
Perhaps only high-level hunters have the financial resources and strength to spend a lot of time to slowly put together a suitable set of decorative beads.
Gordon planned to wander around the commercial streets more during this time. It was the harvest festival right now, and merchants from all over the country gathered together. Maybe he could meet someone selling raw beads.
If the price is not too expensive, you can buy some and make some low-end defense beads, energy beads, etc., which is better than nothing.
“The Dragon Slayer Pearl, which improves dragon attribute resistance, requires the blood of an ancient dragon, and the Quick Recovery Pearl, which increases the speed of injury recovery, requires albino raw meat slices.”
The alchemist’s mother-in-law was still saying the names of the dishes, and Gordon planned to listen patiently to the end.
Suddenly, the name of a bead that interested him jumped out of the mouth of Granny Alchemist.
“. Craftsman beads require high-quality original beads (Shura original beads) and the heart of a horned dragon, which can increase the sharpness of weapons.”
“The heart of Dioceratops?” Gordon became interested.
He has already tasted the benefits of "craftsman" in improving the sharpness of weapons with the stone guard. It may seem inconspicuous, but it is very versatile. What's more, the effects of the guard stone and beads can be superimposed.
“But why can the heart of a one-horned dragon increase the sharpness of weapons?” Gordon was confused.
Granny Alchemist maintained her unhurried tone, "There is a special substance in the heart of the one-horned dragon that can make the blade harder."
“That’s it.” Gordon kept this in mind.
Whether it was low-grade materials such as crab shells, pig skins, or the precious Dicerosaurus heart, he kept it in the storage box at Dongdoruma's residence. Naturally, it was impossible to suddenly take it out thousands of miles away (?).
But in a city as big as East Doruma, there should be dragon alchemists. Once you get the appropriate raw beads, you can go to the alchemists to customize them.
Over the next week or two, Gordon frequently appeared in the shopping street.
I also asked my friends in the sandy boat group more than once where there were reliable jewelry stores or jewelry merchants.
Sesna, who has a gossipy personality, thought this guy was going to make some "big move", such as customizing a ring or a token.
Even followed secretly and made inquiries for a while.
Finally, I learned that this guy just wanted to get the original beads for making jewelry beads, so he retreated angrily.
The monsoon has not arrived, making this year’s harvest festival extra long.
Gordon and others have their own things to do, and they don't feel bored.
Merchants and travelers in the city are very happy. Everyone hopes that this lively festival can be longer. When the monsoon comes, the dust will cover the sky, which is very annoying.
However, the leader of the Mustache Guild of Lockrak and the captain of the Sand Ship Group became increasingly anxious.
No one can explain the specific relationship between monsoon and Fengshan dragon. They only know that the two always appear together.
They are not afraid of the Fengshan Dragon coming, after all, it happens every year. What they are worried about is that the Fengshan Dragon has not arrived yet.
Because that means "abnormal".
All events related to ancient dragons, the most dangerous situation is "abnormality".
(Lately, my sub-health from sitting has become a bit serious. I went to exercise after a long time. There is no orz tonight.
