Wolf King

Chapter 134 What to Do If You Are Too Popular

"How is this possible?"

With a puzzled expression on his face, Balk turned over a sandwich steel sheet half the size of a palm in his hands. The steel sheet is a composite steel sheet cold-rolled by the gray dwarves. A layer of copper wire is sandwiched between the two steel sheets. The completed magic array map, the white gelatinous substance on the surface of the steel sheet was plated by Balke himself, and it looks like an extremely light, extremely small double-layer steel sheet in appearance.

This is the part that puzzled Balke a lot. This piece of steel, which has nothing to do with alchemy creation and magic knowledge, is miraculously possessing the performance of a magic amplifier, and it can be used by spellcasters. The wands are the same!

"...Bai Xue site." Xiao Yun's mouth twitched, and he patted the thick experimental notes inside his hand on Balke's forehead, "Is there anything impossible? Magic power is energy radiation, and the process of using magic is human interference with the energy of magic power radiation. The process of frequency and continuity, then the magic wand and magic amplifier used in the casting process focus on the magic magnetic resonance medium.”

"Silicon steel (silicon alloy steel with extremely low carbon content) and magnesium oxide (prepared from salt brine after drying the salt) have good magnetic permeability, high resistivity, low hysteresis loss and eddy current loss, and are used as magic energy resonance media Of course, its performance is superior to that of traditional copper, magic minerals, and wooden wands, plus magnesium chloride is used as an insulating layer, and the inner layer is lined with copper wires to form a magic circle. If such a magic power amplifier is not as good as a traditional wand Well, what is the purpose of our hard research these past few years?"

"..." Balk couldn't find a point to refute, but he looked down at the square sandwich steel sheet in his hand. As a magical creature, he still instinctively rejected this thing. Even if this thing is alive, he has a part to credit—— Copper wire, the steel sheet made by the gray dwarves, and the things I extracted from the brine left over from the sun-dried salt can actually be used as magic amplifiers?If the Goddess of Magic knew about it, would she send down divine punishment and blow him into ashes? !

"... Even if you say so, Ayun, can't we make 'it' look better?" Balk was very entangled, "Who would be willing to accept that such a piece of steel is actually a magic power amplifier?"

Xiao Yun spread his hands together: "There is no way, in order to improve the magnetic induction performance, reduce the hysteresis loss, and maintain the performance of the radiant energy resonance medium, the shape of the steel sheet must be flat, and the surface quality must be absolutely smooth. To destroy its performance, do you think performance is more important than shape?"

"..." Balke was so entangled that his facial features were almost wrinkled.

It's not that Xiao Yun doesn't know that the more stylish and powerful the shape of the magic amplifier, the better it is, so that it can be sold at a price—two spellcasters pinch each other, and one draws out a low-key, gorgeous and powerful magic wand, The other party took out a flat steel plate, so what's the matter?If you want to laugh at the other party, why don't you just lie down and win?

"Otherwise, it's better. Add a leather case to the steel plate and make it into the shape of a wristband to wear on your hand. Although it's not as strong as a wand, at least it has the advantage of strong concealment. Balk, what do you think?"

Balk imagined that the tall and tall spellcaster stretched out his hand, wearing a steel wrist in a leather case worn by warriors on his wrist, and his face turned a little green.

"Or make it into an iron fist glove, and the steel plate is embedded on the back of the hand..."

"It's better to wear wristbands." Balk said with dead fish eyes.

Xiao Yun put his arm on the shoulder of the green dragon with a dead face: "Think about it this way, at least we have developed a new type of magic amplifier. No matter how awkward the shape is, it is also something used by spell casters. It is also mass-produced and cheap. Wumart is much more awesome than the staff and wand that a master craftsman has worked hard for several months."

Balk squinted at him: "Ah Yun, don't you give up aesthetics in pursuit of mass production—"

"How can I, can I not want the magic amplifier we produce to sell at a high price? Isn't this a technical limitation!"

"You seem to be telling the truth, but given your past behavior, I always feel that you are not sincere..."

"That's your illusion! Illusion!"

The matter of letting Evelyn secretly develop the magic amplifier made Balk believe in Xiao Yun's importance to him again. For the sake of Xiao Yun's "prodigal son turning back", Balk gave up his pride of being a dragon (mainly aesthetics) , pinching his nose and cooperating with Xiao Yun to smash out the first mass-produced "Magic Steel Wrist"; facing a box of neatly placed magic leather wrists, Xiao Yun was full of a sense of accomplishment, and Balk covered his face with his hands ...It's a good thing that these magic leather wrists don't have the maker's mark on them, otherwise he wouldn't have the face to go out in his life.

"Ah Yun, will you sell these things to the forest elves?" Balk asked anxiously, if Xiao Yun really planned that, he would try his best to stop it—if those green-skinned pointy ears saw this kind of magic amplifier, they would die of laughter No wonder, our proud Dragon Clan can't afford to lose that man.

Xiao Yun turned his head and looked over: "Which strand of my hair do you think looks stupid?"

Balk stared at Xiao Yun's short white hair: "Uh..."

"What are you thinking!" Xiao Yun rolled his eyes, "The enemy doesn't have such resources, these things can only be sold to the human kingdom."

Balk immediately smiled. He likes the word "capital enemy", which shows that Xiao Yun actually doesn't like those green leather pointy ears. He is so flattered!

He had just been secretly happy for two days, and Evelyn, who had worked with the engineering team to build roads and canals, and had been eating ashes for more than a month, was transferred back to Xiao Yun... Balk was so angry that he slept at night and bit the corner of the blanket.

Evelyn, who finally didn't have to eat ashes, returned to the tribe and before she could catch her breath, Xiao Yun gave her a dozen cat warriors...

"—Magic Apprentice?" Evelyn was dumbfounded.

"Right~ Aren't you a second-level spellcaster? You can take disciples, so help me, teacher, and bring out some magic-playing ones." Xiao Yun nodded.

"Teacher, why don't you come by yourself?" Evelyn said inexplicably.

Xiao Yun didn't speak, but looked at her silently.

After a while, Evelyn clenched her right hand into the palm of her left hand—Mr. Ayun is a snow werewolf.There are theories and can guide basic spellcasters, but it is too difficult for the teacher to lead the apprentice...

The teacher asked her to take the apprentices, which obviously recognized her progress in magic. Evelyn was very excited. She immediately nodded and happily took these cats to do the crystal ball test—theoretically speaking, except for the snow wolf races, centaurs, barbarians and humans, other races more or less have magic affinity (including goblins), but there are individual differences in the degree of this affinity, if it is too low, it will not work; in addition, there are mental power restrictions, the initial If the mental strength is lower than the standard line, it will be difficult to get started. It is better to simply give up the way of magic and choose another way.

Fortunately, these cat warriors carefully selected by Xiao Yun are very up-to-date, none of them were eliminated by the entry test, and all of them embarked on the road of job change...

On the one hand, Evelyn is gearing up to lead the cat apprentices, and on the other hand, the warriors of the Snow Wolf Clan are also preparing to set off—a large number of Snow Wolf Clan are still living in the central region. If you are in a crisis without knowing it, you have to get back what you can get back.

Sending away Yu and Xiaohua's team, there are not many things in the tribe that Xiao Yun needs to handle personally.After calculating that the days were about the same, Xiao Yun organized a group of people to load the goods on the ship and go down the river to the Elf Port.

"It's time for this artificial river to have a name..." Sitting on a raft made of logs and admiring the scenery on both sides of the river, Xiao Yun rubbed his chin, "Hmm... what is such a small canal called the Yangtze River?" The Yellow River is too shameless, let's call it Jinjiang!"

"Jinjiang?" The grassroots patriarch did not join the warrior team this year, so Xiao Yun called her onto the raft this time.

"Jin for promotion, Jiang for Jianghe." Xiao Yun said casually.

The grassroots patriarch nodded indifferently, and it is fine to use "jiang" to distinguish artificial rivers from natural rivers.

Last year's snow was not too heavy, and this year's rain can be expected to not be as flooding as last year.It is a good thing for farming, but the canal in Jinjiang has to stop without sufficient water flow.Therefore, after the end of the spring plowing, Xiao Yun mobilized the work team for a few days to build a dam at the junction of the upper reaches of the Jinjiang River and the river, giving priority to ensuring the water transportation of this canal.Anyway, there is no problem of grabbing water on this land, so Xiao Yun can do whatever he wants.

The straight-line distance of hundreds of miles drifted down the river for a day before arriving at the destination. Last year in the canyon at the mouth of the snow, the Snowwolf tribe set up a row of wooden stakes for rafts and boats to dock. At dawn, everyone who was sweating all over was finally able to lie down on the bed in the wooden house to rest.

As soon as Hai Lin heard that Xiao Yun was coming, she rushed to find him to exchange feelings, but she was kicked out by Xiao Yun without saying a few words—this guy was purely to show off that he was in love with that beautiful elf warrior girl No wonder Xiao Yun, who was sleepy to death, was in the mood to listen to his nonsense.

After sleeping until noon, just after getting up and washing up, Hai Lin's irritating and overjoyed face came over again: "Ah Yun, Sabrina has agreed to my marriage proposal!"

"Then you are awesome." Xiao Yun rolled his eyes, put on his clothes and walked to Ah Shu's food store.

"Don't you want to say something, I'm getting married!" Hai Lin's big face tirelessly continued to tease her.

"You elves also like to follow the ceremony?" Xiao Yun asked suspiciously.

"what?"

"It's nothing, what will you do with your good friend Kai after you get married?" Xiao Yuncai, who is single, has no interest in celebrating other people's new marriages, and made up his mind to fool this matter.

"What is Kai and what should I do?" Hailin asked in confusion.

"You're married and you're still alone, boy~"

"What's the matter with me?"

"That's right, what does your marriage have to do with me?"

"..."

"I haven't seen you for so long, Ayun, you are still so cold. You thought you would be happy for me. After all, it was the barbecue skills you taught me that made me win Sabrina's heart..." Hai Lin said with a melancholy expression.

Xiao Yun paused, and squinted more indifferently: "I have something to talk about, and I have nothing to hold back, I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back, do you know?"

Hai Lin immediately turned to Ya's big face eagerly: "How can the hot and sour potato shreds in the third issue of "Food Hunter" be cut evenly?! Look at my hands, they are all cut with scars, and there is nothing I can do. You have reached the level of a gourmet hunter!!"

Xiao Yun took a closer look and found that this guy's hands really caused him a lot of trouble, so the corner of his mouth twitched: "What kind of knife do you use to cut potato shreds?"

"This one." Hai Lin quickly pulled out the short dagger stuck in her waist.

"...It is clearly written in the travel notes that the gourmet hunter uses a square kitchen knife, which is slightly wider than the palm and one and a half palms long. How did you mistakenly think that you can achieve the professional knife of the gourmet hunter with this kind of knife? effect?"

"But you can't find that kind of rectangular knife at all?"

"Find it yourself at a blacksmith, silly bird. The back of the knife is slightly thicker and the blade is thinner. Just add a handle and you're done!"

"...Why didn't I think of this!"

"Stupid!"

I chatted with Hailin and walked to Ah Shu's food store. The business here is still good, and there are still many people queuing up after dinner.

"There are a lot more adventurers this year?" Xiao Yun lifted his spirits when he saw that they were all paying customers.

"It's a lot more than last year. The Adventurer's Association fleet has come three times." Hailin said honestly.

Xiao Yun chuckled, and lowered his voice: "You guys, Ananas, have made a lot of money. I heard that General Kleist has received a lot of dividends. With the general's personality, he will also give you benefits, right?"

Hailin smiled triumphantly, made gestures, and also lowered her voice: "That's right, the soldiers on duty at the port are twenty gold coins each...Did Evelyn tell you? She got more, Gwendoline The elder is only one of her disciples. You also asked Evelyn to write travel notes with you, and the bard association gave her a lot of gifts." At the end, his tone was a bit sour, obviously it was Ayun he knew first...

Xiao Yun seemed to be gossiping: "Oh? Elder Gwendolyn or General Kleist, who gets the most dividends?"

"Of course it's an elder~" Hailin said enviously, "Elder Gwendolyn is in charge of most of the business with the Adventurer's Association, and those who follow her are assigned good jobs, even if they transform their house into a family hotel It can also be profitable.”

Xiao Yun nodded silently. Gwendolyn, the airborne faction, is sure to control the local faction... This is an opportunity for him. It's not hard to get on board.

The two stood by the side and waited for a while before a seat became vacant. Xiao Yun quickly grabbed a place to sit down and instructed Hai Lin to queue up.

As soon as he took off the skin bag on his waist and took a sip of water, several adventurers huffed and surrounded Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun: "??"

"Hello, friend, I don't seem to have seen you before. Did you just come?" The young man with the golden hair who came up first was about to speak when a bearded adventurer with a full face stretched out his palm and pushed the young man away with a smile. Brilliantly turning his big face over, Xiao Yun stretched his neck back in fright.

"Theodore! I came first!" the golden-haired young man said angrily.

The bearded man gave a look back, and several adventurers rushed up and dragged the golden-haired young man and his skinny monkey companion away... These people were still smiling the whole time, as if they were trying to prove that they were not messing around. Just a joke between friends...

"..." Xiao Yun looked at the bearded man's overly attentive attitude, and then at the envy and hatred of the surrounding adventurers towards the bearded man and others, and he almost knew what was going on.

"No appointment." Xiao Yun said in a deep voice, and pointed to Ah Shu and the others who were looking this way, "I'm with them. The Snow Wolf Clan here in the port are all from the same tribe."

The bearded adventurer immediately looked disappointed, looked at Xiao Yun's ear with reluctance, and led the people away with drooping eyebrows.

"These adventurers haven't given up yet." Xiao Yun was angry and funny. The team of adventurers who didn't enter the Elven Forest and stayed on the west coast were very keen on developing snow wolf clan companions. He heard Mu Mu mention this matter last year. But Mu Mu A Shu and the others refused all the way until this year, but I didn't expect these guys to be quite persistent.

But... this kind of enthusiasm is not a bad thing, Xiao Yun scanned around the adventurers of all races who love the food of the Snow Wolf Clan, and felt that these guys could also take advantage of it...

While he was thinking about it secretly, Nanfeng brought a big bowl of stewed soup and ran towards him cheerfully: "Ayun, Ayun!"

Xiao Yun's eyelids twitched.

"Eat stewed Ayun, I cooked it!" Nanfeng joyfully put the big bowl in front of Xiao Yun, "The one I cook now is better than the one made by Ashu!"

The golden-haired young man and the thin-skinned monkey companion who stepped aside and were bickering with the bearded man looked over in amazement, and the bearded man and his gang of younger brothers cast unabashedly hot gazes.

"Snow Wolf Clan Ayun?!" The adventurer sitting at the same table with Xiao Yun, who was burying his head in fanfare, suddenly raised his head and pointed at Xiao Yun with his chopsticks (yes, more people have learned to use chopsticks) with an extremely excited tone.

Xiao Yun replied in seconds: "No!"

The cute cub Nanfeng still hasn't understood the situation: "Ayun, what are you talking about?"

"You—" Xiao Yun was choked up, but it was too late to say anything now, and the next moment he would be submerged by the vast ocean of the people...

"Hey, hello?! What are you doing?!" Ashu and Xiaoyu were all shocked, they quickly dropped the colander and ran out to save people...

Hai Lin, who is queuing up: "Fuck, you adventurers are going to rebel?!"

"Be careful, bastard!!" The adventurer who was hit was furious.

"Don't eat idiots, Ayun from the snow wolf tribe is there! The place with the most people!"

"Which snow wolf tribe, Ayun?"

"A Yun of the Snow Wolf Clan of the Gourmet Hunter!"

"@#￥%...&*()———!"

After about half an hour.

In the hotel where no one dares to mess around in the port, General Kleist always lives.

Xiao Yun's nose is not his nose, his face is not his face, and he is sitting awkwardly on the sofa in the living room. Most of the buttons on his homemade suncloth uniform have been torn off, and the water bag around his waist and the pocket containing a roll of blank bark paper and charcoal pencils are all gone. Yes, there was a big hole in the cuff.

On the opposite side, the elf general supported the armrest with his arms, covered the lower half of his face with his palms, and looked at the empty place with ethereal eyes...Even if Xiao Yun was blind, he would not think that he was pretending to be deep, he was just trying to hold back a laugh! !

"Until the arrival of the merchant ship, Ah Yun should stay with me first." After holding back his smile for a long time, Kleist removed his hand covering his face and said with a calm smile... If his hand hadn't returned Trembling slightly, Xiao Yun believed his evil.

Why is this guy's face rounder than last year...

"I didn't expect the travel notes I co-authored with Evelyn to be so popular." Xiao Yun nodded with a cheeky old face, and then pretended to be embarrassed, "We borrowed the general's name without authorization, did it cause trouble for the general?"

Kleist smiled indifferently: "The exuberant energy and curiosity of adventurers do sometimes cause trouble."

Xiao Yun, dead fish eye, okay, you are a boss, no amount of harassment can disturb you.

Xiao Yun came to Elf Port this time not only to find an opportunity to deal with the Sea Clan of St. Bridge's fleet, but also to have a relationship with Kleistra.But... now is not the time, and the situation of seeing each other again is a bit too weird; Xiao Yun can't say anything, so General Elf arranged a place for him and settled down honestly.

As soon as I entered the room to take a breath, a considerate elf girl brought needles, thread, towels and food over.Xiao Yun took the things and thanked them politely, but the elf girl refused to leave, and put her face in front of Xiao Yun's nose with bright eyes: "Ah Yun... sir, who is the gourmet hunter?"

Xiao Yun: "..." Is it poisonous today? When I woke up, I started to be insulted by people until now...

The elf girl held her heart with her hands and her eyes sparkled: "If the archetype of the ranger is the general, then there is also the archetype of the gourmet hunter, right? Mr. Ayun, who is the archetype of the gourmet hunter?"

Xiao Yun stared at the elf girl who was trying to be cute for a few seconds, then rushed out of the door and rushed towards the room where Kleist lived-this day can't be passed!

When Xiao Yun brazenly seized the opportunity to squeeze into a room with the elf general, in the east area of ​​the port rented by the Snow Wolf Clan, the grassroots patriarch and others who had just gotten up from sleep were blocked by a group of adventurers as soon as they went out.

Grassroots patriarch and clansmen: "??"

The golden-haired youth, Isaac, and the bearded Theodore, these two people's sharp eyes swept across the savage snow werewolves among the orcs, and they all fell on the grassroots patriarch at the same time—these snow werewolves were as strong as they were. Almost, but the temperament of the grassroots patriarch is relatively calm, and if you look closely, you can see that she also looks older.

Isaac and Theodore raised their feet and stepped forward at the same time... The next second, countless black hands stretched out wretchedly, hugged Isaac's waist and gagged, and dragged him back.

I had a bad time at the food store just now, this time Isaac called all the members of the regiment, the tall and strong orc Malkan and the newly recruited strong members rushed to rescue their leader, the dwarf Arnold and the thief Alex attacked Theodore by virtue of their agility and compactness.

In the next second, two groups of adventurers started fighting each other...

Grassroots patriarch and clansmen: "?!"

"What are they doing?" a snow werewolf was confused.

"I don't know..." The grassroots patriarch shook her head blankly. Her understanding of the group of adventurers was limited to Mumu Ashu's experience in running a food store; The patriarch said unsurely, "Well... I didn't take a weapon, and I didn't hit the vitals. The attack was relatively light... Maybe it was playing?"

The clansmen were even more confused: "Ah? You came here to play at our door? Why?"

"Did they want to play with us, so they played for us?" Another group of people speculated.

"It's possible!"

"Hey—they got nosebleeds everywhere, and their faces swelled up casually. I don't want to play with them." A member of the clan said disgustedly.

"I don't want to either."

"Me too."

The grassroots patriarch didn't dislike the adventurers who took the initiative to "show favor", but she instinctively felt that these people were a bit weird, so she suggested: "If they want to play here, let them play. Let's go around and go to A tree to eat."

Everyone nodded in unison, so the grassroots patriarch led the way and left in a line from the side space...

Isaac and Theodore, who pinched each other fiercely, listened to the whole conversation of the group of snow werewolves because they were relatively forward and kept pushing forward with each other's strength, and dragged each other's hind legs hard; The two of them stared blankly at the figures of this group of people going away, completely unable to recover...

A black hand from nowhere punched Isaac and kicked Theodore in the ass.

"—Oh oh oh oh oh!" The two regiment leaders who gave up on themselves pinched each other even more fiercely.
