Astral Apostle Chapter 31: Draw up
Hearing Weber's instructions, the main attack team immediately turned to help the four of Webber deal with the other split-claw bear.
Solved the pressure of the first one, and the twelve hunters surrounded and killed the second Crackclaw Bear with no suspense. They cooperated skillfully and used their rich experience to consume it to death.
Zhou Jing did not take risks this time, but instead cooperated with other hunters, fighting steadily, and in the end, everyone just paid the price for the serious injuries of the two.
Boom!
The second Crackclaw bear, bruised and bruised, collapsed, shaking the ground.
The hills that serve as the battlefield are full of ravines shoveled by the crack claw bear, and the hunters are also covered in dust and dirt, stained with blood to some extent.
Seeing that the prey was dead, many hunters stopped moving, their tense nerves relaxed, exhaustion surged like a tide, and they lay on the ground in an instant.
"Huh... I finally killed these two stupid bears. My hands are almost worn out."
"Gou Ri's strength is so great that it almost broke my waist."
The crowd gasped.
The most tiring ones have always been the power players who competed head-on, and everyone was injured.
Baron sat on the ground, his hands and feet trembling, and the blood that had spewed out before condensed on his beard, forming dark red knots.
It's still too much for him to carry high-risk alien beasts.
Zhou Jing only needs to roam for output, and he doesn't need to be a MT. He only has minor injuries from scratches on his body. In comparison, he is the best group of people.
He walked to Baron's side, couldn't help but raised his hand and scratched Baron's shiny bald head, and asked with a smile, "How is it, are you alright?"
"Don't touch my head, I won't die anyway."
Baron patted Zhou Jing's hand.
Immediately, he looked up at Zhou Jing, his eyes flashed with relief and appreciation, and his tone was emotional:
"Your performance exceeded my expectations. Thanks to you, we didn't have any dead... Two split-claw bears, if you hadn't quickly injured one of them, maybe we would have sacrificed three or four people." /
"It's my duty." Zhou Jing waved his hand.
"It seems that I told you not to take risks before, but I underestimated you, and your strength has far surpassed me."
"I felt like I could do it, so I did it." Zhou Jing replied in a deep voice without explaining too much.
Baron smiled, and then said earnestly: "But I still want to remind you, if you don't have enough confidence in the future, don't take risks like today, or you will form this habit, and you will be finished if you miss one day."
"I'll remember."
Zhou Jing nodded.
Baron is his guide, so the relationship between the two is naturally closer. Although neither of them mentioned any teacher or apprentice, they actually have a similar relationship. Compared with others, Baron is a sincere For his sake.
Although I don't necessarily follow Baron's orders, I never ignore them.
In this hunting and crusade, Zhou Jing probably figured out the limits of what his strengthened body could reach, understood his own combat power, and re-calibrated the actual effect of the current attribute values in his cognition.
At this time, many hunters got up and surrounded the two prey, as if thinking about what to do.
Seeing this scene, Baron pouted in the direction of the hunters and said to Zhou Jing:
"You have made a lot of credit this time, and you should have the right to give priority to the loot. Let's discuss with them in the past. By the way, let's get to know your new comrades. You will be an official alien hunter in the future, and you will inevitably fight side by side with them. "
"Okay, then I'll go."
Zhou Jing nodded and turned to the hunters gathered not far away.
Looking at Zhou Jing's back, Baron suddenly stopped Zhou Jing.
"Jason!"
"Huh?" Zhou Jing stopped and turned around in confusion.
Baron gave a thumbs up and grinned proudly: "Hahaha, you will definitely become an excellent hunter in the future!"
Hearing this, Zhou Jing smiled, nodded in greeting, and continued to walk forward.
Behind him, Baron laughed silently, a sense of fulfillment welling up in his heart.
This person, he did not bring wrong.
Jason Wood...perhaps the best hunter he's ever taught.
Zhou Jing walked to the prey, the hunters gathered here saw him coming, and immediately pulled him to his side, his attitude was much more enthusiastic than before.
He was just a novice hunter before, and everyone didn't pay much attention to him, but seeing Zhou Jing's combat power in this hunt, everyone realized that this man was not a simple novice, he seemed to be very powerful, and immediately It paid attention.
For alien hunters, they can only be respected if they prove their strength, courage and hunting achievements.
Webber was also in the crowd, he immediately greeted Zhou Jing, nodded and said solemnly: "Jason, you have contributed a lot this time, without your performance, our situation will be very troublesome, this time you choose the spoils first. Well."
Hearing the energetic voice, Zhou Jing couldn't help but glance at Webber.
This person led the containment team and endured more pressure, but the injury on his body was much lighter than that of Baron and others. The body brought by the second strengthening made Weber's endurance and resilience higher than others.
Zhou Jing did not refuse either. He looked at the corpses of the two prey and asked curiously, "How are the spoils generally divided?"
Wes immediately regained his spirits, jumped out immediately, and said excitedly:
"Oh yes, Jason is a newcomer and doesn't know the rules yet. Let me explain to him... In this kind of group hunting, we generally discuss the disposal plan according to the contribution and credit. After all, such a large prey can be There are too many materials used, and it is impossible to give them all to one person. Generally, everyone decides the parts they want, first determines the requirements, and then sends them to the workshop and then divides them.”
"Then I understand." Zhou Jing understood.
At this time, Weber interjected: "The claws of the Crackclaw Bear are a good material for making weapons, and his fur is also suitable for making better leather armor. These two values are the highest."
"Of course, if you choose a bear paw to take home to eat, we have no problem." Weiss teased.
Zhou Jing couldn't help but glance at him.
I always feel that if Weiss chooses the trophy, this person may choose a bear whip and take it home to repair his body...
After all, if you don't have a bit of love, how can you practice such a well-trained crotch removal technique?
Zhou Jing shook his head, thinking about Weber's suggestion.
The claws of the split-claw bear are indeed tough, and they have been against everyone for so long, but only a few small gaps have been broken. The thick fur and skin have strong impact resistance properties, and they are all very good materials. The equipment is definitely better than the ordinary equipment on his own.
"Well then, I want to use its sharp claws to hit two knives, and then use its fur to make a pair of armor."
Zhou Jing expressed his needs.
As for the alien blood potion, this is a quota given by the workshop. There is no need to allocate it. The main reason is to see how many alien blood potions the workshop can make with two split-claw bears.
He has just finished strengthening himself, and he does not plan to strengthen himself for the time being. Although this is one of the "life goals" for customs clearance, he feels that he needs to strengthen his hand.
And he still owes Baron a debt, and he thinks it's better to pay it off first.
Hearing this, everyone nodded their heads one after another. Such a request is very reasonable. The materials for the two split-claw bears are completely sufficient.
Everyone immediately looked at Weber. According to the contribution, Weber's trophy selection must be ahead of others.
"I don't need the materials, just give me an extra copy when you sell them."
Webber waved his hand, unsmiling.
Immediately, he turned to look at Zhou Jing, and said solemnly: "Jason Wood... Your strength is very good, I can't believe that you are just a rookie who has just finished strengthening. In short, if there is any hunting opportunity in the future, I will Will consider calling you."
After a very talented battle, Weber found that Zhou Jing was a bit more powerful than an ordinary single-strength hunter, and was not going to treat him as a rookie.
In the entire White Plains City, there are only three hunters with secondary enhancements. Each additional reliable character is a good thing for Webber. He does not hesitate to make an invitation - seeking reliable teammates, and is also very helpful to the hunters. important.
Hearing this, other people also responded, saying that in the future, if there is an opportunity, they will also call Zhou Jing to hunt together.
Zhou Jing responded one by one, but did not refuse.
Knowing that he was recognized by the hunters who were active in Baiyuan City, he integrated himself into the hunter's circle and made everyone remember his character.
It didn't take long for everyone to discuss the distribution of the spoils, and arranged for Wess to run errands, informing the soldiers in the rear not to continue setting traps, and by the way, call someone to help transport the prey back to the city.
Zhou Jing also arrived to rest, and only then did he have the time to open the panel and glance at the flashing information.
[Trigger the achievement [Kill an alien beast for the first time - high risk]! ]
[Obtain 1000 Astral Points, [Quality Enhancement-Physical Strength (Small)] x1, [Quality Enhancement-Resistance (Small)] x1, [Attribute Enhancement-Physical Strength (Micro)] x1]
[Life goal [hunting high-risk alien beasts] has been completed]
[Get 30 Information State Particles]
[Current Apostle Constant Standard Progress: 30/110]
When the last apostle killed the White Spider Monster, he triggered the achievement of killing a medium-risk alien beast for the first time, and killing a high-risk alien beast for the first time naturally also had an achievement, and the reward was increased on the basis of the former.
Zhou Jing glanced at it, and continued to save the rewards for improving aptitude and attributes in the achievement warehouse. There is no need to use it at present.
In order not to cause waste, he thought about it, and felt that it was better to be completely sure that an apostle could clear the level, or that an apostle's template was extremely valuable, and it would be better to use this achievement reward.
The accumulation of achievement rewards, Big Brother Stack, makes him feel more useful.
Speaking of customs clearance, this time K-head completed one of the "life goals", and the harvested 30 points of information state particles advanced the progress of customs clearance.
"Speaking of which, every time you complete a life goal, you can get information-state particles, but the rewards for all life goals just meet the customs clearance standards, or not?" Zhou Jing felt a little puzzled.
According to the definition, information-state particles are resources that are obtained when the astral apostles have different effects on the current plane.
He currently has not received it from his daily activities and achievements, and is not quite sure how much it would take to generate this resource.
The most important acquisition channel at present is to complete the "life goal".
…
It didn't take long for the army of Baiyuan City to rush over with tools, and with the help of hunters, they slowly dragged away the two extremely heavy corpses.
In the evening, many hunters attacked the two alien beasts and transported the prey back to Baiyuan City. It was already night.
Lord Root greeted him at the city gate. Seeing everyone returning, he immediately greeted him.
"Thank you for your hard work, on behalf of Baiyuan City!"
Webber shook his head: "Don't say the polite words, let the people from the workshop handle the prey first... I'm afraid such a big corpse won't fit into the city gate."
"Of course, I have already ordered."
Lord Root waved his hand and let the hunter workshop staff who had been waiting on the side begin to work, disposing of the carcass of the splitclaw bear on the spot.
After doing this, Root turned around and looked at the state of the hunters secretly, and found that no one was damaged, and his eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.
No one died? Did the hunt go so well?
Root was a little puzzled, but it was more of a surprise. In any case, it was a good thing that the hunter was not damaged.
Seeing that many hunters are in good condition, he rolled his eyes and said:
"Everyone has solved the threat for the town. It's worth celebrating. It happens to be night. You haven't eaten for hunting. I want to host a banquet for you. By the way, I will discuss the payment. I wonder if you have the time?"
Hearing this, many hunters looked as usual.
Every time they urgently slay alien beasts for the town, the lord will always host a banquet to entertain them and have a good relationship with them. Everyone is used to it.
"I plan to go back to recuperate, so I won't attend the dinner."
"I'm hungry, so let's have a meal."
"The lord invited me, it's not appropriate not to go, haha."
Everyone had their own ideas, and finally six hunters accepted Root's invitation.
Zhou Jing was not familiar with the situation in Baiyuan City, so naturally he did not refuse.
While Webb and Weiss also accepted the invitation, Baron did not go, expressing that he wanted to go back to heal his injuries.
The group followed Lord Root and soon came to the Lord's Longhouse in the center of the city.
The lord's longhouse in Baiyuan City is a small four-story castle. Everyone came to the banquet hall on the first floor and took their seats at the long table.
While waiting for the food to be served, Lutra chatted with everyone, and roughly understood the hunting process and the contribution of the newcomer Zhou Jing.
Root picked up the wine glass and greeted with a smile: "It turns out that we have a new monster hunter in our town, Jason, thank you for fighting for White Plains City."
Zhou Jing is not very suitable for this kind of situation, so he casually said "This is my duty".
Lord Root took a sip of wine and said curiously: "Speaking of which, I have never heard of your surname Wood. I don't know which tribe you are blood relatives of?"
Zhou Jing's expression was calm.
Sure enough, he knew that he was a genuine tribal blood relative, so he would definitely ask this question, but this time he met someone who knew how to do it...
According to the environment of the origin of the nobility in the early days of this world, this is to play his way, to see if he is a real "noble".
Zhou Jing was very calm: "I knew from the first day that when I became an alien hunter, I would also be questioned about my background. Did the alien hunter also see his identity?"
For this kind of real tribal blood relative who knows how to do it, the more explanations, the easier it is to make mistakes, and it is difficult to win people's trust no matter what, so he made up his mind not to explain... As long as there is an endorsement of the hunter's identity and credit, he does not want to say that others Neither will it.
Lord Root was stunned for a moment, and then he let out a haha and dismissed the topic.
"No, I'm just curious."
He saw that Zhou Jing didn't want to say anything. Although he was curious, it was impossible to force a hunter who had just solved the threat of alien beasts for Baiyuan City to speak, so he stopped asking.
Soon, the attendants brought food, and many hunters were so hungry that they devoured them.
While eating slowly, Lord Root discussed the payment with Weber~IndoMTL.com~ and set the amount.
In addition to the reward for submitting prey in the workshop, as a lord, he will also provide an additional reward of 100 tera silver per hunter.
After all, the lord gave 1,200 silver coins, which is a huge sum of money.
It's just that Zhou Jing secretly pouted... The wool comes from the sheep, the lord who holds the right to collect taxes, the hunters take the money to spend in the city, and in the end the money will flow back to the lord, so there is a generous emboldened.
But at least people are willing to give money, not too demanding, and after getting along for a short time, Zhou Jing's impression of Lord Root is not bad.
This world is not yet rich in nightlife. The town has a curfew at night. The dinner is very simple, and the hunters are more pragmatic. After eating, they leave.
Zhou Jing was also about to leave, but Lord Root deliberately stopped him.
"Jason, I have something I want to talk to you about."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Jing turned back curiously.
Lord Root said slowly: "I heard from them just now that you are a free hunter trained by Balon. Do you plan to stay in Baiyuan City or Frostwood Village for a long time in the future?"
"It depends on the situation. In short, it is about activities in the surrounding area." Zhou Jing's answer was ambiguous.
"I hope you can stay in Baiyuan City. With your skills, you don't have much chance to play in Frostwood Village."
"Really?" Zhou Jing raised his brows: "Shuangmu Village is also a village under your control, you don't seem to care much?"
"It's not that I don't care. As a lord, I have the duty to protect Frostwood Village... But Baiyuan City has a larger population and is more important. I can only allocate limited personnel to the town first."
Lord Root explained it again, paused, and finally showed his true intentions:
"Actually, I want to hire you as my personal escort."
