Luo Xiaolou looked at the energy tester in surprise, there is such a function? There was no reminder at the tenth level, or maybe the second prince's sword had already been registered.
Luo Xiaolou casually clicked No, the same sentence, what they need most now is not to be famous, but to find Yuan Che as soon as possible, and then find a way to get enough energy stones before leaving here.
That night, when Yuan Xi came back, Luo Xiaolou found that there was nothing unusual about Li Jie and Xiao Qiao's behavior. He couldn't help but secretly smiled, it seemed that Yuan Xi didn't intend to publicize his promotion, except him and Li Suo, no one knew about it.
However, this time, in addition to giving Luo Xiaolou fourteen and four-level energy stones, Yuanxi also handed him ten five-level energy stones.
Seeing Luo Xiaolou's gaze, Yuan Xi said, "During the lunch break, I went to the fifth-level area." First, he wanted to test his current level. Unintentionally dangle in front of him.
Luo Xiaolou looked at those level 5 energy stones in surprise, the quality of which varies from good to bad, probably due to the fact that Yuan Xi had just arrived in the level 5 area and hadn't learned how to identify them.
"Your lunch break is comparable to the harvest of several people in your group in a day."
Yuan Xi doesn't really feel much about gaining, he prefers the thrill of rapid improvement in ability. But seeing Luo Xiaolou holding the energy stone and smiling with no promise, he suddenly felt satisfied and comfortable.
That night, Li Suo didn't come back. Yuan Xi and Luo Xiaolou looked at each other without saying anything.
Luo Xiaolou went to the kitchen to cook dinner for the three soldiers, and they ate so much that they didn't want to lift their heads. One is because it is so delicious, and the other is because it is too tiring. The teamwork is really different. Everyone is trying their best to challenge their limits.
The next day, Yuan Xi, Li Jie and Xiao Qiao left again early in the morning.
Luo Xiaolou started to make his second energy sword, and he began to feel lucky that the second prince sent so many materials.
Because it was a different structure, Luo Xiaolou's speed didn't increase much. It took him a whole morning to make the second weapon, which was also a sword, much wider than the first one. He held it in his hand. The inside also feels thicker.
In the afternoon, Luo Xiaolou sorted out the last material and made the third energy sword, which was more like a knife than a sword. Extremely sharp, and the shape is cool enough.
After Luo Xiaolou was busy with the last step, he removed the high-level five-level energy stone from the first energy sword, installed it on the second and third energy swords respectively, and checked the level. To his satisfaction, today's two also reached the eleventh level. Moreover, Luo Xiaolou believes that if the knife is replaced with a better energy stone, it is very likely to reach the twelfth level.
When making it, he discovered that the third structure can maximize the performance of the material.
Luo Xiaolou wrapped up all three weapons with a smile, planning to take the opportunity to send them over when they went to the competition the day after tomorrow.
He didn't think about leaving one for Yuan Xi, these three energy swords can negotiate more additional conditions with the prince. One of them is to ask the prince to give him some advanced materials. It can be seen that the second prince is a person who loves weapons very much. If these three weapons can really please him, I believe it will not be a problem to ask for the same materials. Make as many as you used to make.
Then, Luo Xiaolou inspected the original black soft sword again.
He still couldn't see what material it was, but he was very surprised to find that the material of the black sword was better than almost any material he had ever seen. Moreover, it contains huge energy, not gray energy, but closer to black energy, more solid. That is to say, if some auxiliary materials are provided, Yuan Xi's sword can be transformed into an energy sword.
Luo Xiaolou thought of the weapons on the original mech again, and he couldn't help getting excited.
However, Luo Xiaolou didn't do it right away. He didn't want to use auxiliary materials that weren't suitable for the black soft sword. Besides, they didn't have the top-grade fifth-level energy stones.
Unable to do anything, Luo Xiaolou couldn't help itching in his heart, so he simply designed an energy sword structure for the black software, and it was also the best structure he could design so far.
This directly led to the fact that the other three came back and found that there was no dinner waiting for them.
Xiao Qiao didn't want to move anymore, so she simply asked Li Jie to go outside to pack the food and come back. Although it is more expensive, but in extraordinary times, rest is more important.
On the third day, the day before the Xishan Ancient Martial Arts Conference, Yuan Xi, Li Jie, and Xiao Qiao went out early in the morning as usual.
Luo Xiaolou sorted out his own materials. Although there were many low-level materials and few high-level materials, the number had already reached a terrifying number.
There are the ones he got from upgrading weapons for others, the ones he got from custom-made energy swords, and the ones from Yuan Xi, Li Jie and the others. After Li Jie and Xiao Qiao got the energy sword, they gave all the materials they had stored to Luo Xiaolou.
Luo Xiaolou asked 125 to put away most of them, leaving a copy.
He still has another task today, he wants to make an energy bow, this is just an idea, whether it can be successful is another matter. But if it is successful, some dangerous guardian beasts will not have to fight in close quarters, which can greatly reduce casualties. Of course, this kind of weapon is not as popular as the melee weapon for masters like Yuan Xi or the Second Prince, but it is a good thing for extremely dangerous special situations or some people with low abilities.
According to the principle of the energy sword, Luo Xiaolou first designed a set of bow and arrow diagrams, and then started to make them in the afternoon.
After modifying the time for a day, Luo Xiaolou found that he seemed to have succeeded, but the distance the arrow shot was not ideal.
But if the distance is increased, the energy support is not enough.
Luo Xiaolou frowned, thought for a long time, and couldn't find a better way, so he also put away the energy bow. This weapon was also sold to His Royal Highness, I believe he knows the function of such a long-range energy weapon.
Although it is not perfect, there are many experienced weapon makers in this place, and he believes that they will solve this problem.
On the third day, Luo Xiaolou went out with Yuan Xi and the others. They first went to the gate of Yi's house to meet the others, and then went to Area A.
Only Area A can enter Xishan, so Xishan can be regarded as a natural garden unique to the royal family.
When passing through Zone C and Zone B, they all have to show their participation permits, while Luo Xiaolou needs to show a Temporary Resident Permit for Zone A.
During the stay in Area A, they didn't need to pay energy stones in the past, but Luo Xiaolou had to pay a level 5 energy stone every day. Fortunately, Yuan Xi gave him a lot these days.
Along the way, Luo Xiaolou observed excitedly, and it turned out that they were much more luxurious than District D, and District A was even similar to a medium-sized city in the outside world, a scene of prosperity. When passing by the tall and majestic white temple, Luo Xiaolou found that Yuan Xi's eyes changed instantly, and the vigor of his whole body could not even be concealed.
This is not the highest temple, Luo Xiaolou looked at the beautiful and indifferent angel carved on the white vault, slightly lost in thought, what is the truth? Is Yuan Che really still in the gray cave...
Yuanxi dragged Luo Xiaolou as if there was no one else on the road, and only let go when he arrived at the gate of the conference. He frowned tightly and said: "Safety is the most important thing. If you have any questions, let 125 contact me."
As a weapon repairer, Luo Xiaolou could not follow into the conference venue. And the conference will be held for three days, during these three days, all contestants must live in it.
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Luo Xiaolou replied.
Seeing them enter the gate, Luo Xiaolou turned to the side, where people from Ling Xiao's family were waiting.
The middle-aged man greeted him politely and said, "Master Luo, please come with me. Your Excellency invites you to wait for him in his annex."
The other building mentioned by the man is not far away, it is a big house next to the Guwu Conference, after inviting people in. The middle-aged man greeted the people inside respectfully and withdrew.
After a while, a young butler-looking person greeted him, he looked at Luo Xiaolou critically, and asked, "Are you a soldier or a weapon maker?"
Luo Xiaolou was taken aback for a moment, and replied: "It should be considered a weapon maker..."
The young housekeeper gave him a reproachful look, and said, "Why did you come here now? Everyone else has already arrived, so hurry up."
other people? Could it be that the second prince asked others to help him make an energy sword? Luo Xiaolou was not too worried, since his upgraded tenth-level energy sword could surprise the prince so much, it means that there are not many people who can make tenth-level weapons, and eleventh-level energy swords will only be more advanced.
The young housekeeper sent Luo Xiaolou to a large courtyard to the west, then turned and left.
There are two rows of rooms in the yard, and almost all of them are standing in front of each room. Those people are old and young, in groups of twos and threes, discussing something. When Luo Xiaolou was sent in by the housekeeper, there was some hostility in his eyes, and no one paid him any attention.
Luo Xiaolou felt baffled. Is it necessary to compete to build weapons for the prince
He soon discovered that he was not the only one who was isolated. Under a big tree in the corner of the yard, an old man was sitting there alone. Luo Xiaolou observed for two seconds, and then realized that the old man's clothes were too shabby, and these people probably didn't like him.
Luo Xiaolou walked over and sat beside the old man.
The old man glanced at him in surprise, then smiled, and after a while, asked in a low voice, "Young man is young, it's not bad to be able to participate in the Royal Arms Maker selection competition."
Luo Xiaolou froze, turned to look at the old man, and almost jumped up, "What are you talking about? Trials? I don't plan to participate at all."
The old man was also taken aback, and asked in surprise: "Then why did you enter this yard? This was held together with the Xishan Ancient Martial Arts Conference. The Royal Arms Division selection competition, the top 20 can be hired by the royal family. If you perform outstandingly, maybe It is the dream of the weapon makers here to be the exclusive weapon makers of the Princes and Highnesses."
No wonder the eyes of those people are full of hostility, it turns out that there is still a competitive relationship. However, this is a complete misunderstanding...
"Oops, I made a mistake. I'm not here to compete, I'm just here to deliver something." Luo Xiaolou explained, then stood up, "No, I have to get out of here."
The old man grabbed him, shook his head, and reminded: "Don't go now, those guards won't let you go out, maybe they will interrogate you and ask you to explain the purpose of sneaking in. Wait a while for the selection competition to start, the supervisor Come on, go out and explain."
Luo Xiaolou knew that the old man also had good intentions, so he sat down sullenly. 125 moved in his arms, and said solemnly, "Yuanxi told me not to flirt with other men."
Luo Xiaolou was almost thrown out by 125 in disgust, and he couldn't help but sarcastically said, "You are loyal, I think it's better to give you to Yuan Xi, he will cherish and love you."
125 suddenly felt pain all over his body, and the scene of the original domestic violence was played back again. He cried tremblingly and said, "You can do whatever you want! But I have to say—no one here can beat you Yuan Xi, you, you can figure it out yourself!"
Luo Xiaolou ignored 125, and turned to talk to the old man about weapon making. He learned by himself based on the structure of various energy swords. Unlike others who have a solid foundation and systematic theory, it is rare to have such an opportunity, so Luo Xiaolou took the opportunity to ask for advice.
Luo Xiaolou couldn't hold back this question, he found that the old man knew a lot more than he did. Moreover, the old man has rich experience, and the explanation is profound and thorough.
Luo Xiaolou suddenly didn't feel that the time was going to be hard, in fact, he wished that it would be slower. Finally, Luo Xiaolou talked about the difficulty he encountered yesterday, which was the launch distance of long-range energy weapons.
The old man was also pleasantly surprised. He is a weapon maker in Area C, and he was able to come to participate in the trials because no one in Area C could have his skills.
But because he refused to join the weapon shops affiliated with various big forces, he was tricked by people with serious intentions, and his business was mediocre. However, he didn't ask for much, as long as he could maintain food and clothing, and he spent more energy on weapon research.
He had thought about this issue of long-range weapons a long time ago, and if he could really research it, it would benefit the entire gray cave. But there is one point that he has been unable to overcome. Taking the bow and arrow as an example, it is the remote control of the arrow, how to make the energy of the energy stone attach to the arrow that is shot.
But Luo Xiaolou just researched this problem, and he got stuck on another problem.
The old man was surprised and didn't know what to say, so he gave advice to Luo Xiaolou emotionally. Luo Xiaolou also benefited a lot. Regarding the difficulty of the distance, the old man thought about it and gave two solutions. Luo Xiaolou felt that both were feasible, and he just had to experiment.
The other contestants, although they didn't know Luo Xiaolou, knew the old man. Although the old man was unpopular, his craftsmanship was nothing to say. Seeing that the old man was so devoted to talking with Luo Xiaolou, he felt even more uncomfortable.
This is enough to show that Luo Xiaolou also has two brushes, so, do they have one more powerful competitor
Just as the atmosphere in the yard was changing quietly, a person suddenly jumped down from the west wall.
This person was dressed in black, with a white grimace mask on his face. He was so gloomy that he didn't seem to be the person who should appear here. The moment he appeared, Luo Xiaolou's heart suddenly moved, and he hid behind a tree under the warning of 125, while the others were too scared to speak. The gate of the yard was closed, and the guards outside had no idea that such a person would come in.
The man in black pulled out a piece of paper from his arms, and asked with a strange emphasis that had been deliberately changed: "Has anyone seen this person before? If you don't know what to say, don't blame me for being rude."
There was a moment of silence, no one dared to speak.
The grimace man snorted, planning to look for it in another yard.
At this time, a young man suddenly pointed behind the tree and shouted tremblingly: "I saw him! He's there!"
Luo Xiaolou was taken aback for a moment, his face darkened. He simply came out from behind the tree, and when the grimaced man saw him, he immediately let out a strange laugh.
Luo Xiaolou glanced at the young man, the young man's eyes flickered, and he looked away.
Before the ghost-faced man came over, Luo Xiaolou quickly moved up to the old man and said a few words. When Luo Xiaolou stood up again, the Grimace Man had already arrived in front of him, grabbed Luo Xiaolou, jumped onto the high wall next door, and then disappeared. The next door was the venue of the Xishan Ancient Martial Arts Conference.
