Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 175: Li Yao's changes

Views:

Li Yao frowned deeply.

At first glance, what Zhao Tianchong said made sense, but after careful consideration, he found it strange. After thinking for a long time, Li Yao jumped to his feet and said:

"Student Zhao Tianchong, there is a big problem with what you said. Equipped with a magic weapon with better performance, the efficiency of hunting monsters has been greatly improved. Originally killing ten monsters a day, now you can kill fifteen. Isn't this also capable of insanity?" Is it the purpose of cultivation? After all, you think it’s too expensive!”

Zhao Tianchong blushed very rarely.

He did exaggerate a bit.

Although the Great Wilderness War Academy does not encourage students to use magical weapons when they are practicing on campus.

But when it comes to actual combat, in a dangerous battlefield, it is of course a good thing that the performance of the magic weapon is improved.

No one thinks his sword is too sharp.

Zhao Tianchong explained with embarrassment:

"Student Li Yao, if you say that a method is worth hundreds of credits, you can accept it with gritted teeth."

"But these magic weapons of the basic models are all consumables. In fierce battles, they need to be replaced with new ones every now and then. It's impossible for us to spend hundreds of extra credits every now and then, right?"

"Even if the efficiency of killing monsters is increased by 10%, it won't make any money back!"

"That's right!"

The sword cultivators agreed one after another, this is the most critical factor.

Who wouldn't want to equip a more powerful weapon if the price is right

The key point is that the monsters are really difficult to deal with. Some of them are covered with hard carapaces like the Golden Armored Beetles, some of them have extremely hard bones, and some of them are full of corrosive body fluids.

In the fight with monsters, the melee magic weapon will not last for a few days. Often, the edge of the blade would crack, the body of the sword would crack, and be corroded to the point of rust, making it unusable.

We are all college students with little money in their pockets, and every penny has been saved through untold hardships. If it's a one-time consumption, it's okay to say, but who can afford to pay a few hundred cents more every now and then

Zhao Tianchong gave a wry smile and said:

"Student Li Yao, I have told the truth. Don't look at our martial arts students going out to perform tasks. Earning credits is fast, but there are many places to spend credits."

"Not to mention that all the professors in the Department of Martial Arts kill people without bloodshed, and they don't even blink when they fail a class. As a result, we often have to spend a lot of credits to retake it."

"Let's say that we get injured in practice every now and then, so we go to our classmates in the medical department for help. Their knives are also polished to a bright shine, and there is blood every time!"

"So, we can only plan carefully!"

After a pause, he said again:

"However, these magic weapons you refined are really good. If the price can be reduced by 30%, there will be a lot of sales, no one else will tell. I will buy a chainsaw sword first!"

"Yeah, everything is good, and I like this battle ax very much. It's just too expensive. If it's 25% cheaper, I'll bite the bullet and buy it!"

Another classmate, who was five years old and three years old, said fondly while stroking a tomahawk.

Li Yao blinked his eyes, he could hear it. This time everyone is telling the truth.

Think about it too, a sword costs hundreds of credits. If it can be used for a year or a half, I can bear it after gritting my teeth.

But these things are consumables. If you are unlucky in battle and encounter monsters with particularly hard bones or strong corrosiveness, you will be scrapped in no time!

Although the performance of these swords refined by Li Yao has been greatly improved, it is impossible for them to remain intact after three or five days of continuous fierce fighting.

That being said, the price is indeed expensive.

But Li Yao also has difficulties.

A melee magic weapon sells for 800 credits, and not many are netted, most of it is cost.

Among other things, just buying an original magic weapon to modify it would cost hundreds of credits.

Coupled with all kinds of precious raw materials, a magic weapon can net up to one or two hundred points.

To reach 30,000 points, one must continuously rotate day and night, modifying hundreds of magic weapons.

Let alone a 30% lower price, even a 20% lower price, a magic weapon can only earn dozens of credits.

Li Yao faintly felt that he seemed to be on the wrong path.

What he adopts is still more inclined to the hand-made workshop-style refining model of 40,000 years ago.

After a lot of tempering, careful consideration, and handcrafting, it is true that a magic weapon that is more exquisite and slightly more powerful can be refined.

However, the refining efficiency is frighteningly low. It takes at least one or two days to complete a finished product, and for some complex structures, it takes three or four days.

However, the current sect of cultivation has long adopted the large-scale industrial model when refining low-level magic weapons, refining in batches, and the efficiency is extremely high.

Once the output goes up, the cost can be kept very low.

Perhaps the performance of such a magic weapon refined in large quantities is not the strongest.

But the price-performance ratio is definitely the highest.

This is the perfect refining mode for low-level magic weapons that consume a lot of energy.

"Efficiency, the key is efficiency!"

Li Yao suddenly realized.

"I am refining consumables with the idea of refining high-quality goods. It takes a day or two to modify a 'exquisite' consumable. The efficiency is so low, of course it won't work!"

"However, the real high-quality goods, the kind that can kill demon gods with a single blow, can be refined by me at the fifth level in a small Qi refining period?"

After thinking about it, Li Yao asked again with great expectation:

"What about the sticky bomb? This thing is not expensive, and its power is not bad. It is my flagship product!"

This time, it was Lu Tieshan's turn to speak.

"Student Li Yao, the sticky bomb is really good. It is very targeted for monsters with strong exoskeletons, but it is too complicated to use. If you accidentally stick it to your hand, it will be embarrassing."

"We don't have your amazing hand speed and finger agility, so we can hang so many sticky bombs on the monster shell without anyone noticing!"

Li Yao was dumbfounded, and realized that he had made a second mistake.

In refining the sticky bomb, he unknowingly put himself in the shoes of the user.

And he not only developed amazing hand speed in the high-intensity magic weapon maintenance, but also practiced "Thousand Fingers Soft Bones", an ancient magical power that specially improves the flexibility and flexibility of fingers!

Ordinary cultivators' fingers are not as nimble as his, and their hand speed is not as fast as his.

For them, the use of slime bombs is too complicated. In high-intensity battles, if you don't pay attention, you will stick to yourself.

In a word, this is a magic weapon exclusive to Li Yao, and it is difficult for others to use it.

Li Yao lowered his head. There was some hot tingling in the cheeks.

"Senior brother Peng is right. To become an excellent craftsman, you have to go through a lot of actual combat. You must first become an excellent fighter and understand what kind of magic weapon is popular in actual combat. It is the most practical!"

"Because of my lack of actual combat experience, I worked behind closed doors on the university campus to refine these beautiful magic weapons."

"The paper data of these magic weapons are very beautiful, and the performance in the test is also excellent."

"But once on the battlefield, various problems are exposed."

"Actual combat. I need a lot of actual combat!"

"In actual combat, you have to hone your combat skills and become a real warrior, and only then can you know how to refine a very popular magic weapon!"

Three days later, in the eastern business district of Qingze City.

Among the ruined walls, Li Yao's face was expressionless, his eyes were piercing. Confront a monster.

In the past three days, the battle situation has undergone drastic changes.

A large number of cultivators came one after another, and even many students of the Great Desolation War Academy heard the news. They all returned to school ahead of schedule and rushed to the battlefield.

Every day, the transport ship would make several round trips between Qingze City and Dahuang Zhanyuan.

With the army pressing down on the territory, the large wave of beasts on the ground was suppressed, and the powerful monster generals and monster kings fought stubbornly in the underground sewers extending in all directions. High-level cultivators can only go deep underground and carry out bloody killings in the dark labyrinth.

There are still small groups of demon soldiers running around on the ground. Let them be dealt with by practitioners in the Qi refining period.

Li Yao is one of the best monks in the Qi refining period.

The "Iron Armored Snapping Turtle" he was facing was a very fierce type among the middle-level demon soldiers.

It looks like a cross between a turtle and a crocodile. Stand up and zoom in three times. She is covered in an iron-clad tortoise shell, and its defense is stronger than that of the golden-armored knife mantis. The thick tail covered with jagged teeth, like a barbed iron whip, tears the air and makes a "woo-woo" neigh.

Whether it was hit by its turtle shell or swept by its iron tail, the consequences would be disastrous.

And Li Yao was very different from three days ago.

After discovering the problem, he thought about it for a long time, finally settled down, and decided to sharpen himself in actual combat.

He sold most of the magic weapons refined during the winter vacation to his classmates at a very reasonable price, and only kept a powerful heavy-duty shock sword.

Swords, guns, halberds, axes, axes and forks... There are more than 30 or 50 types of melee magic weapons. It is obviously impossible to master all their characteristics in one go.

Li Yao planned to master the use of the sword first, and become an expert in refining and using the sword.

He likes the arrogance of a sword that goes forward indomitably and breaks with a knife!

In addition, he also modified the six-barreled rotary bombardment, adding a mysterious light emitting device to the barrel, which can emit a red beam that is focused on a point within a hundred meters, acting as a simple aiming system, enhancing Heavy firepower with precision.

He also changed the empty magic treasure box into an ammunition box, and carried tens of thousands of psionic bombs in one go!

At this moment, Li Yao had a shiny black heavy-duty vibrating saber across his waist, and he was holding a six-barreled rotary bombardment cannon. A thick chain of bullets extended from the ammunition box on the back to the barrel of the gun.

Outside the tight black battle suit, there is also a vest full of pockets, the pockets are bulging, full of sticky bombs!

Not only is it fully armed, it is simply a walking arsenal!

Facing the steel-clad snapping turtle whose strength was clearly one grade higher than his own, Li Yao's mouth curled into a calm smile, and a word was coldly squeezed out between his sharp teeth:

"die!"

A red light shot out from above the muzzle of the six-barreled bombardment cannon, and hit the iron-clad snapping turtle's chest, forming a clear target.

Before the snapping turtle could react, Li Yao pulled the trigger heavily.

Amidst the loud noise like a volcanic eruption, clusters of flames exploded in front of Li Yao, converging into a thick and thick red streamer, smashing head-to-head at the armored snapping turtle, and blasting fiercely! ()
