The world of strange stories.
Dreamland.
After leaving Shan Lao's residence, Kamiyagawa was not in a hurry to go to Fujiyama Pass immediately, but teleported here by Kamiya.
Under the huge Ferris wheel with colorful lights in the park, you can see an elegant stall with a bamboo frame, a plain white cloth cover, and two red lanterns.
Lingmao Everything House.
After Kamiyagawa got the [Black Pattern Formation Haori] last time, he moved the small stall of Master House here.
The stall has been set up for a long time.
Unlike the past where cats were allowed to travel freely and bring back any souvenirs they encountered, this time when Kamiya River placed them, the [Specific Material Exploration and Search] function of the Master House was used.
It costs five hundred soul crystals to use this function once.
And only relatively common materials can be used for [Specific Search].
All props and rare and hard-to-find materials cannot be found using this function.
However, when a cat is [randomly exploring], it’s completely lucky to find something. It may bring back completely useless debris, or it may not be harvested at all, with only a cute kitten face and two empty paws. return.
[Special search] It’s a bit expensive, but at least it’s guaranteed.
This time Kamiyagawa commissioned Lingmiao Master House to look for a specific material - copper from Yunling Metal.
Spirit Copper is one of those materials that is not too common, but not very difficult to find. It may just be stuck on the boundary of the range of whether the [Specific Search] can be turned on by the Spirit Cat Master House.
"My cat seems to be back."
Kamiyakawa looked at the swaying and glowing red lanterns in the Wanshiwu House and felt happy.
When Shopkeeper Cat is out exploring and traveling and Wanshiwu is playing foreign affairs, the lantern is not lit. When it is lit, it means that the shopkeeper has returned.
"It seems that the spiritual copper I ordered has been secured."
Kamiya quickly walked to the front of the Wanshi House, and sure enough, on the clean countertop of the elegant stall, he saw two large copper ingots the size of watermelons. Under the warm yellow light of the Wanshi roof, they exuded a wonderful ripeness. Red color.
If you look closely, you will find that these two lumps of copper seem to be mixed with a lot of impurities, but they don't look like copper ore.
It probably needs to be left to Satoru to refine.
The problem is not big, it is just a matter of smelting copper.
Only by smelting copper can you upgrade the shikigami statue, and only then can you upgrade Mary!
Because Miss Mary was fed candles by Kamiya River day and night for a long time, her experience bar was finally filled up, and she now has the basic conditions for advancement.
And Kamiyagawa also has the inventory of C-level and B-level monsters on hand, which can be made into Weeping Blood Dark Candles and used as upgrading materials for her.
The only problem before was that the level of Mary's shikigami statue was too low.
If Mary is promoted to level B, she will no longer be able to be accommodated by the shikigami statue, so the advancement ritual has been stuck.
But now that Maomao has brought back the spirit copper, as long as he consumes some soul crystals in the subsequent steps, everything will be fine.
All problems will be solved!
"I'm finally going to raise Mary to level B. Now even if I really get the big boss, Falling Mountain Yan, I'll have an extra chance of winning."
Kamitani excitedly stretched out his hand towards the copper block on the wooden table.
"Meow~"
As usual, Xiaojin Gradient jumped onto the stage at this time.
It rubbed Kamiyakawa's fingers with its furry neck affectionately, its two tails raised high, swaying gently, rubbing each other.
"Thank you for your hard work this time."
Kamiyakawa was in a good mood, so he lifted up the cat shopkeeper skillfully and skillfully. His nimble fingers gently tickled the golden female cat's chin and neck.
Make the cat so comfortable that it narrows its beautiful eyes slightly, unable to stop, and makes a pleasant "purring" sound in its throat.
"Speaking of which, you are really powerful. How did you bring back these two large pieces of copper that are bigger than you?"
"Meow~"
Xiao Jin gradually couldn't speak, but made a slightly proud sound like a cat, and then gently rubbed the top of his head against Kamiyakawa's palm.
"Okay, the fun time is about to end. Let's continue when you bring back new materials next time."
Kamiyakawa, who felt so good, stopped ruthlessly, and used his mobile phone to pay the 500 soul crystals to the Lingmiao Master House.
Wait for this large pile of small gray-white crystals to be absorbed by the Wanshiwu.
The cat shopkeeper, who was still not satisfied with the touch, could only sit dignifiedly and gracefully on the countertop and lick the pink pads on her paws. The already beautiful golden fur became even more shiny and smooth.
"Unpack the express! Okay, although it's not packaged."
Kamiyagawa picked up a lump of copper on the wooden table.
The weight is heavy and heavy.
And at the first moment of contact, an identification message popped up on the phone——
[First copper (rare material): The third spiritual metal among gold, silver, copper, iron and tin. It has many uses and is not easy to find. It can be found in some deep mines. ]
"So the real name of this thing is Shoudong."
Kamiyagawa put all the two large pieces of copper into the [Mirage Bag].
Then he took out a small leather scroll, which Kaku had given him. It was a list of basic materials used to build the Xishe.
The material requirements for constructing Xishe are somewhat large.
In addition, Kamiyagawa also needs to collect some spiritual iron to upgrade the other three shikigami pewter statues to iron statues.
For these things, you must first try to get Xiaojin Gradient to use [Specific Search] to find them.
Cat still has a lot of work to do and can’t rest yet.
…
"Kue, I need you to help me smelt copper and then upgrade a shikigami iron statue."
In the sacred hall of Takamagahara.
Kamiyakawa laid out the two newly acquired large pieces of copper at Jue's blacksmith stall.
The craftsman sister who was forced to go to work in Takamagahara had a somewhat slack expression at first, but when she saw two large round pieces of bronze, she immediately became energetic:
"The speed of finding spiritual copper is also very fast. He is indeed a man who wants to become the master of ghosts and gods."
Jue held the exaggerated craftsman's hammer in one hand and put the other hand on his waist.
Wearing the [Takamagahara Pass] on her wrist.
This pass belongs to the candle-making monk.
The piece that originally belonged to Kaku was loaned to Usagi by Kamiyagawa, so now he can only demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Fortunately, a [Hidden Residence and Fusang Township] was opened before, which can be used as the back garden of Takamagahara.
The little green-skinned monk and the craftsman sister took turns using a pass first, and whoever needed to enter the shrine to clock in and work got to wear it. The trouble is a little more troublesome, but it is still a solution.
Jue looked at the two copper blocks Kamiyagawa took out for a while:
"This spiritual copper block has a lot of impurities. But the quantity is quite sufficient. I estimate that if it is completely purified, the pure copper ingots obtained will be enough to upgrade two iron statues."
"Keep the copper block. I'll process it tonight. I should be able to upgrade the shikigami statue for you at noon tomorrow."
…
Because I have to deal with the matter of upgrading Mary.
The pace of Kamiyagawa's push for [Aokigahara] has slowed down slightly.
Sharpening the knife will not make you a chopping wood.
The next morning, Kamiyagawa used his lunch break to log in to the Kaidan world again.
As soon as I entered Takamagahara, I saw the craftsman sister with her clothes open, swinging her sledgehammer and hammering something seriously.
The clear-cut, firm and smooth wheat-colored skin was covered with a thin layer of sweat, glistening in the reflection of the high-temperature fire.
"Wait for me for a while, I'll be fine soon."
This time, Satoru noticed Kamiyagawa's arrival, but he just said this casually, and then refocused on the work at hand.
Kamiya, on the other hand, is once again familiar.
He sat down on the edge and watched the craftsman sister working quietly.
Ten minutes passed, and with the last hammer blow, the crisp symphony of metal collision echoed.
"Phew - it's finally better."
"Thanks for your hard work."
Kamiyagawa, who had been sitting on the edge, stood up.
"It's not hard work, you have to pay for it." Jue raised his hand to wipe the sweat, took another look at his eyes, calmly pulled the chest wrap that was slightly lowered on his chest, and put on his coat, "There are two standard-sized penises in total. Pure Copper Ingot, please check and accept it, I didn't cut corners, if you are worried, I will let you listen to my heart."
The craftsman sister handed over two square long copper ingots.
It's about the size of a rice cake.
There are pits and pits on it, but there are traces of hammering, but it is transparent and shiny, with a diffuse red luster, and the light is like a thick liquid flowing on the surface of the copper bar.
It looks very strange.
"There's no need to listen to your heart. Those many people are all my brothers. I trust you."
The black bra wrap on the craftsman's sister's chest has been partially soaked with sweat. Now if I really listen to my heart, I feel so horny...
"Hmm~ Let's go then. I'll help you upgrade the shikigami statue. Finish the work quickly and collect the money. It's time for me to go to Fusangxiang and take a bath."
…
The shikigami statues in Kamiya River, except for the torii gate in Takamagahara, are found next to the shikigami in every map.
As long as one of them is upgraded, the corresponding shikigami statues in other positions will also change accordingly.
The site where Kamiya brought Jie to work today is a dream paradise.
Compared to other maps, Paradise is a safer map.
Because this is Kamiya River's territory, as long as he is in it, he can control the information at every location.
Jue once said that she was chased by invisible monsters on the big map and scrapped many props. By chance, she escaped to [Yinli·Fusang Township].
But if you want to upgrade the shikigami statue, you have to go back to the big map.
Kamitani River will choose the paradise for construction to further ensure the safety of sleep.
On the sacred coffin of Paradise, yellow-green light fragments were flying.
The figures of Kamiya and the craftsman sister were then outlined.
"This place looks quite interesting." After the teleportation was completed, Jue looked around and stretched while carrying the craftsman's hammer. "I haven't been outside for a long time. I originally planned to be protected by you and stay in the gods. Gong and Fu Sangxiang are in the comfort zone. This trip will cost extra."
"You can't be protected by me all the time, right? Give me some independence."
"Why not? I'm your vassal." He said it was natural.
"Whatever you want... By the way, I am the owner of the park here, and I also control the strange rules and mechanisms of this area. So the park is relatively safe. I think you are here to help me upgrade the shikigami statue."
"Everything is ready, finish it quickly and take me home quickly."
The craftsman sister waved her hand, squatted down next to the sacred coffin, and looked up and down at the four shikigami statues of different shapes.
But without even looking twice, she would turn back to look at Kamiyakawa, as if to confirm whether the latter was still around.
Kamiyagawa: "What's wrong?"
"Can you stand where I can see you?" A rare uneasiness appeared on Sister Yu's face, which was sassy and wildly beautiful.
"Uh, are you scared?"
"Well..." Jue didn't deny it. Instead, he nodded and forced out a sad smile. "It's embarrassing to say that. I found that when I returned to the outside world, I would be so scared that my body would tremble and I wouldn't be able to concentrate. At work. The monsters I have encountered, even my master..."
The craftsman sister didn't finish her words, but her body really started to tremble.
"It's very safe here, and I will always stay by your side when you are working."
Kamiyagawa said this, but still followed Kaku's request and walked to the other side of Kamitsu, and sat down close to Kaku with Ichimonji in his arms.
After getting closer like this, I could smell the smell of iron and fire on the craftsman sister's body.
Warm and not unpleasant.
"Thanks."
After seeing the presence of Kamiya River clearly in his sight, Saku breathed a sigh of relief.
Now she could barely concentrate on Mary's shikigami iron figure.
Work!
If you don’t work, you won’t have money to buy candles.
"To make Sue, who was originally careless and calm about everything, become like this... It seems that the monsters that chased her really left a big psychological shadow on her."
"But what exactly is it that is persecuting the ghost craftsmen in a targeted manner? I have no clue at all..."
Kamiyakawa sat with his thoughts in confusion.
Then he saw Jue next to him holding a pure copper ingot in his hand.
The red light on the copper ingot began to surge violently like a viscous liquid, and Kamiya's attention was once again attracted by this dreamy and strange scene.
As he looked at it, he suddenly realized that the metallic light on the copper ingot was really dripping down like water, like honey being slowly poured out, covering the iron statue of Mary.
The originally black Iron Man statue was wrapped in a thick red color, and it didn't take long for it to blend into the red color.
The places where the metal light flows are even more shiny.
It didn't take long for Mary's Shikigami Iron Man statue to turn completely red.
Oh, it’s not accurate to call it the Iron Man now.
This should be an upgraded, factory-new bronze statue of the shikigami.
"alright."
The craftsman sister breathed a sigh of relief. The pure copper ingot in her hand had disappeared. The liquid dripping onto the Mary statue just now was not the metallic light, but the copper itself.
"Is this good?" Kamiyakawa on the other side exclaimed, "You usually don't work so fast, do you?"
"If I usually take a little time to show that I'm working hard, I can ask you for more wages."
Kamiyagawa:?
"You're kidding. It's not the same type of work that I usually do. Besides, I've been knocking copper ingots in the shrine all morning just to make preliminary preparations, in order to stimulate the flow of the first copper - okay, hurry up Yes, take me home."
Satori wiped his hands on his fur coat.
Buzz.
Kamiyagawa’s cell phone vibrated——
[Miss Mary’s Shikigami Iron Figure has been upgraded by skilled craftsmen and has been transformed into a Shikigami Bronze Figure! ]
All right.
The task of upgrading the god statue was indeed done by Jue.
