Hotel on the mountain

Beside Pearl Lake, many buildings have been scattered here and there. The simple traps for killing lantern fish have also turned into majestic slaughterhouses. The facilities of the Bachelor's College are divided into two sides, managed by Dao'er and Charles respectively. Since Charles is currently focusing on the field of shipbuilding, the Academy has been expanded again, and a thick and long building has been extended into Pearl Lake, making the Academy known as the most majestic building near Pearl Lake in one fell swoop, overshadowing repeated expansions. The limelight of the blacksmith shop.

Thick black smoke billowed from the roof of the blacksmith shop built next to Pearl Lake Road, and the sound of huge machines forging and forging was deafening. In front of the blazing fire, blacksmith Simba patted his dark bald head and looked. He looked at a forged piece of equipment and smiled with satisfaction.

He picked up the [Ceratopsian Shield Axe] which took more than a year to make, held it in both hands and turned around and handed it to Qiu Guang who was waiting at the counter.

The horned dragon shield ax was placed on the counter. Qiu Guang, who had wheat-colored skin, took off the black hat covering his head and bowed to the weapon with a pilgrim mentality. Only then did he dare to use his He touched its body with his scarred hands.

The machete of the shield ax was hidden under the shield. Qiu Guang held the brown handle and pulled it out. The faint sound of the knife broke into his ears, as if the soul of the monster opened its eyes again. eye.

The knife is not neat. Its guard is a half-moon-shaped blade. The lower half of the blade has grooves and serrations, and the lower half reveals a ferocious edge like a machete. Because the machete part of the shield ax incorporates a lot of ceratopsian materials, the whole thing looks like a desert brown.

Qiu Guang held it with one hand, feeling that his arm was heavy, full of weight and violence. It seemed that if he swung it, he could cut everything immediately - he also acted according to this feeling. He saw Qiu Guang's spiritual energy pouring into the blade, and he slashed it smoothly on the counter. The smooth cutting feeling came from his hand. It was passed back, making people so comfortable that they couldn't help but want to moan.

Simba crossed his arms and looked at the wooden counter in front of him that had been cracked in half. He decided to put this account on Qiu Guangtou and replace it with a better counter.

The corners of Qiu Guang's mouth couldn't help but curl up. He gently put the knife aside and began to stroke the shield, the main component of the shield axe.

The shield is in the shape of a tower shield that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Its sides are very sharp, polished into half-moon corners, just like the blade of a giant axe. Two large horns used to symbolize the level of the weapon stretch out from the top of the shield. These two large horns are taken from the scraps of the horns of the Ceratopsian. They are applied here. At a glance, it is like seeing a Ceratopsian charging around with its huge head. Just come here.

The color of the shield is brown with black in it, because it is also mixed with black horned dragon materials, giving its overall sense of a fierce and killing temperament. And Qiu Guang combined the machete and the shield together, turning it into the second form of the shield axe. The blade is longer than the shield, and the grooves on the knife are connected with the precision instruments under the shield, making it instantly become a double-edged giant. ax.

Qiu Guang held the shield ax in both hands, closed his eyes, and felt the message the weapon brought to him with his heart - he poured spiritual energy into it, as if he had encountered a bottomless pit greedily devouring everything in him, but when he felt his When the psychic energy is enough to activate the weapon - the whole body of the shield ax emits a light red light, and they extend their tentacles to lick the surrounding air, their intention to invade and destroy is very obvious.

Qiu Guang felt it quietly for a moment, and did not make any move to "liberate spiritual energy" at the slightest disagreement. He opened his eyes, split the shield ax back into its first form, and put it back on the half-collapsed counter. There was a trace of confusion.

"Do you feel it?" Simba asked with a smile.

"Yes." Qiu Guang responded lightly, "Its destructive power is very strong, very strong. But..." He was at a loss for words.

Simba smiled and said, "To be precise, this 'Ceratopsian Shield Axe' is still a seven-star equipment."

Qiu Guang raised his head.

Simba pointed his finger at a circular groove in the center of the shield ax and said: "Both Ceratopsaurus and Black Ceratops are seven-star monsters. They are both tyrants in the desert, and their destructive power is very powerful. Its big horn can tear and destroy everything." , after being forged into equipment, it also symbolizes the super destructive power of the horned dragon shield axe.

However, it requires a lot of psionic energy, and you have to pour in a lot of psionic energy to unleash its full attack power. Moreover, because it swallows up psychic energy too much, sometimes you may pour in a large amount of psychic energy and still not be able to meet its needs. This will cause you to find during battle that the damage of this equipment does not meet expectations, but instead decreases. A lot. "

"This is not good." Qiu Guang said with a frown, "No one wants weapons to go off during battle."

"The Horned Dragon Shield Ax is the strongest piece of equipment in the Shield Ax series. You must have heard of its reputation before hunting the Horned Dragon, but..." Simba said again, "It is known as the 'strongest' 'The premise is——"

Qiu Guang crossed his arms and raised his head again to listen to Simba's lies.

Simba coughed twice and said with a longing expression: "You must have a 'Dragon Vein Stone'."

He paused and said, "Two will do, too."

"Dragon Vein Stone?" Qiu Guang was confused, "I've never seen it before."

Simba crossed his arms, and his dark and powerful body was like a vendor showing off his knowledge: "It's normal. No one would want to know about this item before entering the eight-star equipment field."

Simba's words were full of awe and fear, "'Dragon Vein Stone', a strange stone born from the body of an ancient dragon, has all kinds of incredible abilities."

Qiu Guang was no longer calm, his brows were raised in surprise, and his mouth opened wide: "You mean, if you want the Horned Dragon Shield Ax to become a real eight-star equipment, you must hunt an ancient dragon?!"

"Don't panic, stay calm." Simba waved his hand, "The reason I'm telling you so much is to let you know how difficult it is to forge your equipment."

Qiu Guang was puzzled and waited for Simba's next words.

"I promised you that I will forge eight-star equipment for you." Simba reached out and dug into his work clothes, "I will give you the Dragon Vein Stone that I treasure."

When Simba's thick black and powerful hand took it out from his pocket, a round and flawless red bead appeared in his hand, with a phantom of light flowing inside. The surface looked like flowing water waves, but was indestructible.

"Hey." Simba looked at this strange bead and said proudly to Qiu Guang, "This is why many people have to pay a huge price and queue up in extremely long lines to beg the master to forge equipment, because they Customer needs are always fulfilled perfectly. ”

Qiu Guang looked at this magical dragon vein stone and was stunned.

Simba pressed the red bead onto the groove in the center of the horned dragon shield axe, and said to Qiu Guang: "Now, pour your spiritual energy into the shield ax until the dragon vein stone melts."

Qiu Guang carefully pressed his hand on the shield axe. He carefully allowed the spiritual energy of his body to flow into the shield axe. When the shield axe turned red, the dragon vein stone embedded in the groove became like ice cubes. The same dissolution took place layer by layer, and finally spread to the whole body of Shield Ax from countless intangible lines.

When the red dragon vein stone condensed like crystal in the groove in the center of the shield axe, Qiu Guang could feel that the greed of the horned dragon shield ax had been calmed down. In fact, it seemed that it was willing to absorb less spiritual energy and exert a more powerful effect. .

This means that the damage of the Horned Dragon Shield Ax sometimes exceeds the expected effect.

"Originally, I said it would take a year to forge it for you. But I have been too busy during this period." Simba stroked his bald head and laughed, "This is because you have done so many things for the Raya family. , I only gave it to you after helping you so much.”

Qiu Guang bowed to Simba sincerely and excitedly. Simba took out the sword of the shield ax again, and there were grooves on it.

"Every hunter has feelings for their weapons, and this is especially obvious for you. Therefore, I specially made a groove on the knife." Simba pointed to the groove and said, "You will , you can get your own Dragon Vein Stone. Hahaha, there is a chance to get Dragon Vein Stone from battle-type monsters, so you have to work harder.”

The shield ax was slung on Qiu Guang's body, he put on his black robe hat and walked out of the blacksmith shop. Only a hunter with an eight-star weapon can truly be called an eight-star hunter. Qiu Guang looked at the sunlight pouring from the surface of Pearl Lake, and couldn't help but think that with the horned dragon shield and axe, could he be as powerful as the blow that Yetro defeated the black eclipse dragon that day?

However, Qiu Guang shook his head and shook this thought out of his mind. He put his hands in his pockets and prepared to deal with the woman named Kablan first.
