Chapter 202 Engraving
The second wave of enemies came slower than the first wave, and the number of them was not as large as the first wave.
Ma Lu’s potatoes were roasted for a full 15 minutes before less than 20 activated plants gathered under the stone.
Skylark, Ouroboros and Bird of Paradise did not activate their skills. They only used flat A to attack those high HP activated plants first and control the blood line.
After turning over the chessboard map, Malu increased the firepower of the cassette stove. The potato was almost blackened by him, and then he added a handful of enoki mushrooms to it.
It's hard to say how much the energy fluctuates, but the scent is definitely enough, even he smells a little hungry.
After another 10 minutes, there were more than fifty activated plants under the stone, and they were coming fiercely.
In particular, there is a 3-star golden corn shooter, which is more than ten times stronger than the ordinary corn shooter. If the ordinary corn shooter is a small pistol, then the golden corn shooter is a Maxim heavy machine gun.
The shots kept coming, and one person suppressed the other three people who dared not show their heads.
Ma Lu looked at the chessboard map again. Except for a few scattered nearby activated plants that might be stuck by the terrain, they had basically gathered under the stones, forming a circle with a diameter of 120 blocks. Vacuum belt.
This should also be the farthest distance that the energy fluctuations produced by roasting and activated plants can be transmitted.
The activated plants at this distance are still walking in their own way, not moving too much, and they look no different from half an hour ago.
So Malu didn't wait any longer, summoned Ouroboros and released two consecutive rounds of acid rain.
Each time the acid rain spell is released, Ouroboros's sin value will increase by 15 points. Four times is 60 points. However, even so, there are still 8 larks short of her upper limit of 200 sin points.
Talent is such an unreasonable thing.
Moreover, Ouroboros's Acid Rain Technique yielded astonishing benefits. After two rounds, Malu gained another wave of experience and was once again on the verge of upgrading.
After getting rid of the 7 activated plants with residual blood on the ground, he was promoted again without any surprise. The knight level reached lv10, and then unlocked a new module - engraving.
Ma Lu has played a lot of second-tier games. He knew it immediately after seeing these two words. Then he clicked on it and verified that it was indeed similar to what he had in mind.
The so-called engraving is to enchant a weapon with special materials. After enchanting, new effects can be added to the weapon.
White equipment cannot be engraved, blue equipment can be engraved once, purple equipment twice, gold equipment three times...
These are almost the basic operations of the second game. What really interests Ma Lu is that the materials needed for engraving are actually meteorite fragments.
This reminded him of the collection task that appeared on the taskbar last week.
The dignitaries of the Holy Knights went to the Goradot Mountains to collect more than 4 pieces of meteorite debris. The mission rewards are quite generous.
Ma Lu didn’t know if this meant that the church had also discovered the imprinting effect of meteorite fragments, or if it was just a coincidence.
He then asked several witches under his command. Among them, Skylark, Cerberus, and even Ouroboros knew nothing about engraving and similar concepts. Only Bird of Paradise thought about it.
"As far as I know, the church has been secretly conducting meteorite research recently, and some researchers have published related papers, but the papers were quickly withdrawn and can no longer be found."
" Have you read that article?”
“No, but a teacher in the school has read it and said it is a very novel direction. If successful, it may subvert the entire equipment manufacturing system of the church, but it is far from practical. It will take at least ten years for the results to be implemented."
"Is that so?"
Ma Lu touched his chin. According to the Bird of Paradise, the church had also noticed the effect of the meteorite. But they should still be studying engraving techniques.
On the other hand, he has already entered the application stage.
No way, who told him to hang up? In this case, in the future, you may consider collecting meteorite fragments before the church for your own use.
What, you asked what to do with the mission after taking the fragment, of course... don't accept the mission.
Ma Lu plans to take some time to go to the Goradot Mountains later to see if he can still pick up meteorite fragments there.
Since opening the new module, his board map has also been simultaneously upgraded, and meteorite fragments are now displayed as green icons on the map.
In other words, as long as there are meteorite fragments within the map, Ma Lu can get the news immediately and can also check their specific locations.
This greatly facilitates future collection work.
However, unless there happens to be other tasks in the Goradot Mountains, he needs to have enough time to be free to do private work.
Ma Lu plans to upgrade the traveler's bracelet to a few more levels after returning this time.
.........
After counting the harvest, everyone rested for a while and used the effect of the recovery flag to refill their HP.
Then set off again.
Ouroboros was secretly observing Malu along the way, but the more he looked at her, the more confused he became.
This guy is obviously a newbie, he has only gone out on two missions, but he is more relaxed than many veterans.
You must know that this is in the wild. If you are not careful, you may be ambushed by activated plants, resulting in attrition or even the death of the group.
Although knighthood is a profession that all boys in the city aspire to, the actual casualty rate is still very high, and few knights survive to the age of retirement.
The only thing shorter-lived than the knights is probably the witches under their command. After all, once the knights die, even if the witches can escape back to the Temple City alive, they will still be hanged by the church.
Because of this, except for the heartless aliens like Cerberus who rely on instinct to live, no matter knights or witches, their spirits will always be tense after leaving the Temple City.
However, she could not see the tension caused by death in Malu.
On the contrary, the knight in front of him looked very relaxed. Walking among the ruins of the city was like walking in his own living room wearing slippers.
However, he never encountered any sudden attacks along the way.
Even if an activated plant approaches, Malu will point out the enemy's location and name in advance before anyone else in the team can react.
Every battle that happens along the way seems to be under his control.
Ouroboros couldn't figure out how Millipede did it.
Of course, she couldn't figure out where the big stone from before came from. Not only did it block the attacks of those activated plants, but the wounds would heal on their own when sitting on it.
Ouroboros even began to believe what Malu said.
Maybe that huge stone was really placed there by the Lord of Order.
But in her brief relationship with Malu, she could not see Malu's loyalty to the Lord of Order and the church.
This guy was willing to cover her up and cover up for her even though he had already seen through her identity, which made Ouroboros even more confused about where Malu was from.
