The sunlight filtering through the shade of the trees has a beautiful green color, swaying slightly in sight.
A cramped wooden house, with two rows of wooden boards nailed to the brown wooden walls, and a row of bottles and jars - turbid glass, pottery or even wooden ones - filled with cinnamon bark, cloves or... Feta cheese and other condiments. There are several animal skins hanging on the iron hooks on the other side of the wall, gray brown or fiery red, like bear and fox fur, and next to it is a window.
At the end of summer, the gentle breeze blows over the white cloud tops, and the emerald-green vines crawl into the room along the window lattice, and the palm-sized leaves sway slightly.
Outside the window, there are cloud shadows, skylight, and solitary peaks standing proudly.
Fang Yu sat by the window, holding his chin in his hand, looking at the scenery for some time. Under his gaze, the green sea in the sky and the majestic clouds and mountains were as majestic as a curtain, which together formed a heart-wrenching picture, and then the giant beast retreated slowly at a slow pace.
The floor beneath your feet was rising and falling with slight tremors, giving you the illusion of a floating boat on the sea.
The reason why large beasts of burden are called land boats is not without reason——
"Hit, hit!"
Tianlan's screams of surprise and joy came from outside. In the forest, Luo Yu and Parker were leveling up - this is a popular term for selectors. In fact, the two of them, plus a little French girl acting as a spectator, were fighting three strange birds.
The journey from Traveler's Swamp to Elpaxin passes through the southern end of the Egon Forest, a resonant forest filled with floating Gai's Primordial Stones. In the forest, there are a large number of Aiquin foot feather dragons living in it.
The appearance of a bird is like a lizard head. The bright feathers and the long straight feathers on the metatarsal bones are the typical characteristics of Pedopteryx. On Earth, podosaurs were even older than Archaeopteryx, but here they were a living scourge.
Because of their excessive numbers, and their frequent attacks on passing travelers, and even infringement of human territory, they once became one of the most notorious aborigines in the Rainbow Bay area - and because they are agile monsters, they are used for leveling. There are not many teams.
Of course, a few people just happened to be passing by. No matter what, it's better to find something to do than to be bored and bask in the sun on the back of the negative hill beast, isn't it?
After all, leveling up and taking risks are the daily life of the selector.
The experience of killing monsters from a distance is also reflected in the Fang Plover system window in the same team, although there is only a faint one-line prompt.
He just came back to his senses——
The cramped space is more like a small carriage than a wooden house. He sat on the edge of the bed - and the so-called bed was just a layer of dry reeds and wooden boards, covered with a layer of sheets, and placed on two boxes.
The bed is attached to one wall with ropes and can be stowed away if necessary.
It's all about saving space. Because this was originally a sundries warehouse, which stored spare food and water for Attila and others, as well as materials for daily maintenance of the platform such as wood, iron tools, and ropes, as well as spare equipment, ammunition, etc., and it was packed to the brim.
But here, there is barely room for one person. In the two packhouses at the back, there were six people living separately, men and women, and there was really no room for the plover. Attila also tried her best to barely clear a bed for him here.
But fortunately, Fang Plover didn't pay much attention to it.
In fact, he thought it was pretty good here. No matter how narrow the space was, it was much better than sleeping in the wilderness in the mountains and forests. The safety was unparalleled - several shields were specially nailed to the outside of the carriage for reinforcement, and the window panels above were also Can be pulled down to create a sturdy shield.
And although it was a little small, it still had a personal space, and he also found a place to use as a production table.
He used a wooden box placed by the window as a table. After covering it with a wooden board, it can perfectly serve as a craftsman's workbench. At this moment, the components of a set of basically completed Walkers were placed on the wooden board - only the chassis of the Walker II that really couldn't fit was stuffed under the table.
This small space can be regarded as meeting his requirements. If it could be half a meter wider, Fang Yu felt that he would have nothing more to ask for. At least no matter what, the feeling of not having to rush on my own is really great.
He finished making the last part of the walker, then tied the paper strips and marked the order of the parts before he breathed a sigh of relief. He stretched out and turned around, just in time to see the goblin structure left here by the master and the servant.
The exquisite doll girl was sitting on the bedside with her head hanging down, leaning on his Kingfisher αAE magic furnace. The core crystal had been taken out and was being charged.
The magic power of the 'Fairy Heart' to maintain the Ethernet can be paid from the magic furnace, but maintaining the basic mobility of the fairy construct still requires a certain amount of magic power. In fact, because the magic power stored in the Fairy Heart is very poor, it often needs to be used frequently. Recharge.
At this moment, the sun was slanting down from the window, shining on the girl's silver hair, shining brightly. Her eyelashes were drooped, giving her a unique and quiet beauty.
On the other side, Tata was kneeling quietly on the table, next to the window lattice, with his hands on his knees, sitting opposite Fang Plover, maintaining a ladylike posture.
There was a flower bed hanging outside the window, and the elf girl planted wisteria and hyacinth in it—plants that were said to be favored by Aimea. And a leaf of wisteria is climbing into the window, covering the head of Miss Goblin like a beautiful parasol.
Tata is reading the community and paying attention.
A bright blue page was almost taller than herself. The elf lady had to raise her head to read the page. After each page she read, she pushed it aside with both hands and moved to the next page.
In fact, the charges for 'Alternate Telecommunications' are very expensive. After converting the cost of communication between the two worlds, it is almost one hundred and fifty lisels per hour.
However, Fang Yu couldn't say anything when he saw Miss Goblin's fascination.
Knowledge may be a priceless treasure to Miss Tata.
Besides, he still has some money on hand, so he won't be unable to satisfy even such a small request as his own Miss Dragon Soul. Even if you are really poor in the future, you can just find a way to make money. Fang Plover thought a little hopelessly about how to beg for food in the future——
Tata turned to the next page and noticed his gaze.
She stopped, raised her head and asked, "Is there anything you want to say to me, Mr. Knight?"
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Tata pressed his palm on the huge light page, closed it, raised his head, and waited for his next words.
"I want to know what the ruling dragon soul is all about?"
"The Dominant Dragon Soul, as the name suggests, is an artificial dragon soul that was born specifically to control goblin constructs." Tata blinked his eyes, swept his long eyelashes lightly, and said in a quiet voice: "To be precise, no The Fairy 'Construct' is the Dragon Knight. I was born for a construct that has never existed in this world - the Fairy Dragon Knight Construct."
"Fairy type... dragon knight configuration?"
"Theoretically, it can exist," Tata said softly: "The design of the Fairy Dragon Knight may be more complicated than the ordinary Dragon Knight, but it is only complicated on the physical level. What restricts its existence is not actually the structure. The pretense itself lies in the dragon soul."
"Dragon soul?" Fang Plover looked at Tata, this rare fairy dragon soul. "So, the Silver Tower experiment was successful?"
Tata shook his head slightly.
"Silver Tower has successively produced seven fairy-type dragon souls. I am the fifth among them, and I have also witnessed the birth of the last two sisters. But without exception, all attempts are in vain——"
"It's all in vain, how is it possible?" Fang Plover was surprised. He clearly saw with his own eyes that Tata perfectly manipulated the fairy structure. In theory, the fairy structure and the fairy dragon knight both use the fairy heart crystal, and there is no essential difference.
"The problem lies with the carrier crystal," Tata's voice was as calm as ever: "You should know that, right? Mr. Knight, there is no dragon knight in the battle craftsman."
After Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, he finally remembered that there was something else going on.
In Aitaria, combat craftsmen are called pseudo-dragon knights and secondary dragon knights. On the one hand, this is an honorific title, which means that combat craftsmen can achieve a level of strength that is close to that of a dragon knight.
But on the other hand, it can also be used as a contemptuous term, because the pseudo-dragon knight will never become a real dragon knight.
The reason is extremely simple.
The power of combat craftsmen comes from flexible construction. The core of flexible construction lies in the first half of the noun - flexibility.
Of course, this flexibility does not refer to their own speed and dexterity. Because the magic-oriented structures and heavy structures among the flexible structures are neither fast nor dexterous, the only ones that are truly fast and dexterous are actually the assault-type flexible structures.
The flexibility of flexible configurations actually means that combat craftsmen can rely on them to achieve changing tactical combinations and freely switch their own combat styles. A combat craftsman, when he uses the flexible structure of magic guide, he can behave like a magician, using powerful firepower to directly destroy the opponent; he can also be an elementalist or savant, using field control and setting System of magic to become an almighty master of control.
Of course, when they use the attack-type structure, they can also behave like a precise and cold-blooded assassin, able to escape from a distance with one blow, and are elegant and flexible. Or heavy-duty structures, taking on the role of absolute breakers and defenders.
But that’s not all—
Because the definition of a combat craftsman lies in the ability to control flexible construction. Therefore, when they manipulate different styles of flexible structures in multiple lines and enter the battlefield in combination, the truly terrifying side of this profession will be revealed.
The pseudo-dragon knight is by no means a wasted name.
It can be said that apart from the fact that the body is too fragile and the talent requirements are too demanding, there is nothing to find fault with in this profession.
But with every gain comes a loss.
It is such a profession, but it is incompatible with the dragon knight.
Because under normal circumstances, the dragon knight's carrier crystal must be an attribute holy crystal due to its strength requirements. The holy crystal has an extremely powerful characteristic, that is, it will strengthen the magical adaptability of the contractor.
This kind of enhancement will further specialize the contractor's magical adaptability. On the one hand, it will become more comfortable when resonating with core crystals of the same attributes and adjacent attributes. But on the other hand, it also limits their ability to use other crystals, especially opposition crystals.
For non-combat craftsman professions, this restriction makes no sense. Because when they activate their own equipped plug-ins and magic devices through the magic furnace, they are required to have crystals of the same type or neighboring types.
But for the combat craftsmen, it was a fatal blow. Because in addition to its own magic furnace and plug-ins, the combat craftsman also has flexible structures. Because it is an indirect control, the core crystal of the flexible structure itself has no corresponding attribute requirements - and once he becomes a dragon knight, it means that he will give up most of the flexible structures on the list.
From being a generalist, he became a summoner who specializes in one line of work.
And since the craftsman itself is a living profession, the dragon knight contract does not fundamentally solve the weak combat effectiveness of the alchemist himself, which can be said to be worse than the summoner.
Therefore, no combat craftsman with a right mind would want to choose to become a dragon knight.
This is a dead end.
After finishing speaking, Tata quietly added: "The attribute holy crystal of the Dragon Knight is also exclusive of special core crystals such as the Fairy Heart. So even if you give up the multi-faceted ability, the Fairy Dragon injected into the attribute crystal Even the soul cannot control the fairy construct——"
"Our plan was doomed to fail from the beginning. So my sisters and I were eventually injected into ordinary carriers and became magic-oriented or combat-oriented dragon souls."
"And because of the settings, our abilities are not even as good as ordinary dragon souls."
Fang Yu couldn't help but think of the scarred star dagger. He looked at Tata and couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart.
But on the other hand, Fang Plover also suddenly came to another possibility. This shocking possibility even made him feel slightly suffocated. He hesitated for a while before asking: "What if it is a carrier without magical properties?"
Tata looked at him.
After being silent for a while, she quietly said: "Mr. Knight, he may be the only dragon knight combat craftsman; of course, it is also possible..." She paused for a moment before continuing to complete the sentence: "Yes The only fairy dragon knight."
"The premise is that you must first find the fairy-type dragon knight structure."
"What about the Fairy Dragon Knight configuration...?" Fang Plover couldn't help but ask.
Tata just shook his head.
"Due to the failure of the entire plan, the Silver Tower has actually stopped further research on the command dragon soul. The follow-up plans of each branch are also coming to a halt. As for the fairy dragon knight construction that will be completed in the last step The production plan was naturally cancelled.”
"In other words, there is no Fairy Dragon Knight configuration in this world yet?"
"Perhaps there won't be any in the future."
Tata replied quietly.
Fang Plover could completely hear the weight of this sentence. In this world, there may not be more than one alchemist in the first world who can design and build dragon knight structures. Including the second world, this number may be doubled, but it will not exceed ten people.
And among them are those of the elect.
not even one.
Most of these are not even combat craftsmen, but master craftsmen who specialize in alchemy. Because otherwise, it is impossible to reach the extreme in such a field and take off the most dazzling crown of the kingdom of magic devices and constructs.
But Fang Yu couldn't calm down at all.
What has been the greatest weakness of the Fairies for a long time?
That's a joke from the Craftsmen Guild.
The king among the battle craftsmen, the most powerful fairy messenger has only one weakness, that is, his strength can only be reflected in others.
Then the fairy dragon knight controlled by the dragon soul can completely turn this joke into history.
And even if there is no need for a dragon knight, what does it mean to have a combat craftsman who is close to the strength of a dragon knight, plus the ability of a real dragon knight?
Fang Yu could only think of one word to describe such a scene.
I alone am an army.
An army of one man——
He clenched his fist lightly and suddenly understood what kind of path he should take. If no one could help him build the Dragon Knight, why not make it himself? He knew that there was a profession in this world called Master Craftsman.
The rugged path leading to the second world, covered with thorns and fog, seemed to become clear for the first time.
Fang Plover turned around and said to Tata: "I have decided, let's do this, Miss Tata. Let me prove that your birth is meaningful - the ruling dragon soul, from where it was born In fact, it was successful at the moment, but Mr. Hayne-Cam's last wish has not yet been realized."
Tata was slightly startled, feeling that he had heard such a sentence before.
She almost subconsciously replied in the same tone:
"It would be very, very difficult, and it might never work out."
“But you’ve got to give it a try, right?”
The elf lady raised her head and looked at her knight.
…
