Chapter 37: Preparing for the Trial
Casually replenishing some odd and miscellaneous consumables, Nie Kong carefully took out two perfect gems: "Old woman, please help me set the gems." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Well, a good quality gem, and it's also very suitable for your career." The old woman's originally cold face finally became a little more energetic, and she took out a pair of reading glasses and looked at the gems handed over by Nie Kong.
Perfect opal, perfect ruby.
"What gear are you going to set these two gems into?"
Nie Kong thought for a while and asked, "Please ask, can't it be completely disassembled after setting the gems?" ”
Granny Wang casually played with the two gems at her fingertips, and the posture looked like a person with a story when she was young, and she only heard her say slowly: "Of course, an ordinary craftsman can't do a perfect split, but a high-level craftsman can." ”
"The higher the quality of the equipment, the more difficult it becomes. Generally speaking, however, a beginner gem maker can keep any piece of equipment or gem intact, while the other will be downgraded and broken. Intermediate ones can break the abandoned gem or equipment without downgrading it. A high-level lapidary will be able to keep or equip one of the gemstones intact, while the other will have some wear and tear. The master level is able to split the two perfectly. ”
"Is it possible for a grandmaster-level gemstone craftsman to unpack one more gem?"
The old woman squinted her eyes and looked at Nie Kong without speaking, that kind of look ......
"Ahem." Nie Kong took off the wind restraint from his finger and handed it over, "I'm going to set this perfect opal in this ring." ”
"Hey, I didn't expect to see epic jewelry here." The old woman's eyes lit up, she casually threw the two gems on the counter, carefully took the epic ring, picked up the reading glasses and looked at the details of the ring: "Young man, you have a good eye, this gem is the most suitable for setting in jewelry!" ”
Cat's Eye gems set on weapons reduce the target's physical resistance by 10. Embedded in armor increases your physical resistance by 12 points and increases concealment by a small amount. Inlaid on the jewelry will reduce the physical resistance of the attack target by 6 and increase the concealment ability by a small amount, Nie Kong decided to inlay it on the jewelry after a little thought.
The ability to conceal is very important for hunters, especially since Nie Kong has obtained the Nightmare Scale, which can gradually become invisible in the shadows, and with this opal, the Shadow Wandering Skill granted by the Nightmare Scales will undoubtedly be slightly strengthened.
"Epic ring, I'll take ten minutes, you wait." The old woman ignored Nie Kong, took the ring and gems to the jewelry workbench next to her and got busy.
"Oh."
Nie Kong looked at the ruby on the counter but hesitated, the ruby is more suitable for inlay weapons, it can increase the strength of physical attack and weapons by 20 points, but he doesn't have a suitable weapon at hand, in fact, it can also be inlaid on the demon scale skin or silver boots, but the attribute has become a plus 60 health and a recovery speed of 2 points per second, which is obviously a meat shield-type choice, and it does not match Nie Kong.
Nie Kong pursed his lips and put away the ruby, not planning to set it for the time being.
Seeing the old woman busy in front of the jewelry table, Nie Kong thought of the hidden task he was thinking about, this old woman is very senior in the village, she should know something.
"Mother-in-law, I see that my master has a sad face all day long, does he have something on his mind, if you know something, can you tell me, I want to help."
"Yo, yes, Xiao Lizi also accepted a considerate apprentice." Granny Wang said slowly while she was busy: "What else can I do, a big bachelor, I want a woman." ”
Got a play? Nie Kong's spirits perked: "Does he like Aunt Liu from the jewelry shop?" What's going on between them? ”
"It's a long story, hey, the bamboo arrows in the store haven't been selling well recently, and I can't remember anything when I'm worried, alas."
“…… Come for 50 sticks! ”
"I think about it a little, let my mother-in-law recall the memories again."
"50 more!"
"Young man, in fact, you have earned it, and this new batch of bamboo arrows is ten years of good bamboo, and the toughness and strength are very high." Granny Wang snapped her fingers at Nie Kong without looking back: "Anyway, your master Xiao Li was ...... back then."
When Li Orion was young, he was one of the best warriors in the village, and his archery skills and animal taming were all first-class. At that time, the border war was unstable, and the Nanling Kingdom in the southwest often had small teams bravely cross the border and harass the neighbors. There are often monsters in the deep mountains and old forests that cause trouble, and it is all up to Li Lihu and other warriors in the village to defend the village.
Li Orion and Miss Liu looked at each other correctly, but when they went into the mountains to hunt demons, Li Orion and his party encountered a very powerful poisonous snake, and two of them died, and Li Orion was also poisoned in his leg and lame.
After the demon hunting team returned, there was no progress between Li Orion and Miss Liu, until today.
It's a very ordinary story, the game, Nie Kong was too lazy to complain about the plot, and preliminarily determined that the two had some misunderstanding, and said that the two of them could live together without shame.
"The snake demon? Isn't it the snake demon boss in the trial dungeon? "Nie Kong knew that the Hunter's Trial Boss happened to be a poisonous snake demon.
"Mother-in-law doesn't know much, if you want to know the truth, it's better to ask those people who went into the mountain together back then, such as the chief of the guard, Liu Changgui, such as ......"
Granny Zhang said six or seven names in one breath, and Nie Kong asked for a long time, but he didn't get any useful information.
"Your ring is ready, take it." Granny Zhang chatted with Nie Kong for a while, and the work of her hands did not stop, and soon, the gems were set.
Nie Kong took the ring in surprise: "Thank you, mother-in-law, is there a charge for this?" ”
Granny Zhang smiled very kindly: "No thanks, mother-in-law looks at you pleasing to the eye, and will give you a ninety-nine discount, 12 gold." ”
???
Nie Kong stared at the old woman with his mouth wide open, and quickly checked the price on the Internet, only to find that the epic equipment plus gems was expensive, seven or eight times the price of gold equipment and gems! 12 gold is still because of its low level, and hundreds of gold in high grades are not a thing!
"12 golds is 12 golds!" Gritting his teeth, he paid the old woman 12 gold, and Nie Kong left, planning to try to talk to the people the old woman said.
After a circle, it was all nonsense, and I didn't feel that I had asked for any useful information, but Nie Kong found out that Liu Changgui, the head of the village guard, was actually Mrs. Liu's cousin.
Okay, walking around like this is just a rest, and Nie Kong will go towards the trial copy when he is ready.
There are a total of 4 difficulties in the trial dungeon, C, B, A, S, you can start the challenge at level 8, pass the A level before level 11, reward a free attribute point, reward 2 through the S level, and I heard that the first time you pass the S level, you will drop gold items!
Ordinary people pass the most C-level and B-level, and those who can pass A-level are very powerful masters, Luo Shaohe Yidao Xiyang is currently there.
Nie Kong planned to try B-level first, and B-level should be a bit difficult for him now.
The trial dungeon was located in a canyon in the north, and Nie Kong saw that someone in the village was paying attention to him, and after thinking about it, he still headed west. If the picture of himself entering the dungeon is seen by someone who cares and tells the arrow, it is likely to be besieged and killed when he comes out of the dungeon, and two or three people may be able to escape, in case Luo Shao is shameless and sends someone to make a move, there is no way.
The sides of the canyon are all cliffs, there is only one way in, it is completely a dead end, Nie Kong ignored it, ran all the way around the mountain road, and finally came to the cliff more than ten meters above the entrance of the dungeon, and looked down, there were several people chatting idly at the entrance of the dungeon.
More than ten meters high, still in the soul armament, Nie Kong has understood, you should not be able to fall to death if you jump at this height, unless you are stupid to face down.
Nie Kong took a few steps back, aimed at the entrance and exit of the dungeon, ran with a boost, and swooped out with a volley!
Face down!
The body was in rapid free fall, and when he was close to the entrance of the dungeon, Nie Kong quickly activated the system command in mid-air, and disappeared into the air with a 'whoosh' before he landed, and entered the dungeon!
At the entrance of the trial dungeon, a mage looked in the direction of the dungeon in surprise: "Did you see that someone entered the dungeon just now?" ”
"Someone went in? Why didn't I see it? ”
"Are you dazzled?"
"Maybe." The mage shrugged and continued to talk to the person next to him.
