Chapter 2374

"Is there anything worth studying about this worm?" Ashford saw me walking over there with a bug and asked curiously.

Originally, Ashford just asked casually, but my answer surprised him because I nodded. "Have you never noticed this worm before?"

"What's the point?" Ashford asked me suspiciously.

I directly put the insect in my hand in front of him, and then I pressed my thumb on the insect's chest and pushed it upward. As my fingers moved forward, the sharp mouthpiece that had been folded in front of the insect's chest was forced to pop out.

"See this?"

"Well." Ashford nodded suspiciously. "What's the matter?"

"If you say it can penetrate all kinds of armor, it means that it is very hard. Don't you know that high hardness means that this kind of thing contains a special substance, or has a special structure of its own? Even if it can't be extracted, it's OK to collect these needles directly and make them into arrows for weapons

"That's what you're talking about." Ashford said with a sudden realization and a smile, "I advise you to give up quickly. We've studied the iron crusaders

"Then you still..."

"It's not that I waste things, but this one doesn't work at all."

"Why?"

"The mouthparts of this insect contain a special magic metal. So far, we have not found any similar metal in nature, that is, there is no natural mineral. If you want this metal, you can only extract it from the mouthparts of this insect."

"Then extract it."

"But the question is, do you know the proportion of this metal in the mouthparts of this insect? Less than one thousandth of a milligram! This insect only has such metals in its mouthparts. One insect is so big that the collected mouthparts are only half the length of a toothpick and are as thin as hair. How many worms do you think I need to get a gram of this metal? "

I already understand Ashford's point. This kind of metal is not useless, but its cost performance is too low. Too much investment and low output. The cost of making a weapon out of this metal would be prohibitively high. What's more, even if it's collected at all costs, how much does it take to make a weapon? If you kill all the insects in the forest, you can only get one or two weapons? No matter how good such a thing is, can it not be possible to equip troops on a large scale?

"It's really a chicken's heel to hear that." I frowned and asked, "do you know the mix of this stuff? Look, the mouthpiece is so small that it can have such a high hardness, and listen to you, the content is very low. If we extract a little bit and mix it with other metals, can we produce a very powerful effect? "

Ashford frowned at this and said, "what you said may be possible, but we iron Crusaders don't have much money to study. It's just a little bit possible, and in the final analysis, the collection of these insects is always a problem. We don't have that much energy to deal with it. All in all, we can't afford to invest too much. "

After hearing Ashford's words, I thought for a moment, and then asked, "if I let the guild study it and produce results, can I contract this place to us?" Although it is said that this is a public training area, and it is only close to the German border, it is not the territory of the iron Crusaders, but I still have to ask. After all, this is the resource of the allies. Even if they don't want it, you can't take it casually, can't you? It's OK to say the worthless things, but if we decide to mine, it must be profitable. If we don't say good things first, it will hurt our feelings.

Ashford probably didn't want this kind of thing, so he said quickly, "you have to mine. This insect is basically similar to the disaster species on our side. We will be happy if you can collect all the insects. "

"Can the worms be bred? What do they eat? Do you choose the environment? "

Ashford directly shook his head and said, "if you know it's useless, we haven't paid attention to it. If you want to study it yourself, I don't have time to care about it."

Ashford was obviously not interested in it, and I didn't want to talk to him again. First, I recorded the location here, and then informed the army God to send someone to help get some insects back to study. I don't need to interfere in this kind of chores. The frost rose League is so big that I can't do everything?

Ashford was relieved to see that I stopped studying the worm. He seems to hate this kind of bug. He may have been bitten before, so he doesn't like anything that has something to do with it.

When I was quiet, Al, who was in charge of exploring the road, suddenly jumped down from a nearby tree. "President, I found something over there. I think you'd better go and have a look."

Ashford nodded for us to come. What al found was not on our way, but on our side.

Around the lush bush, we saw what Al was talking about.There should have been fighting here, and it wasn't very long. Behind the shrubbery was a small open space in the forest. In the middle of the open space, there was a big tree which was broken into three pieces. Near the broken trunk, there was a corpse of Warcraft as big as an Asian elephant. This Warcraft should be something close to a reptile, probably belonging to some kind of Asian Dragon species. The scales cover the whole body from head to tail. It seems that they have a high sense of defense. The smaller head and mouth show that this is not a carnivorous Warcraft, but this guy has three forward horns on his head, and all of them are very sharp. It can be seen that the combat effectiveness of this thing is very good. However, now it has become a corpse. There is a not very long but very deep incision on the back of his neck. In addition, there are many battle marks on other parts of his body, but most of them have not broken his defense. Only the neck is strong enough to cut off almost one third of the gang's neck.

Because the object was lying with his back to us, I couldn't see the wound clearly. I wanted to go around and have a look. As soon as I turned around the guy's body, I found that there were two bodies under him. One of the bodies was a dog like creature, but a little bigger than a dog, but certainly not a wolf. This guy has three holes in his body, which is obviously the masterpiece of this giant beast. The other body is an individual, but it's not sure whether it's a NPC or a player because it's dead.

This guy's legs are under the pressure of the giant beast. There are no obvious scars on his body, but his head is like a rotten watermelon. It seems that the giant beast stepped on it.

I carefully went to pick up a huge axe on the ground, then jumped over his body, carefully avoided the blood and brain, and came close to observe the wound on the giant beast's neck.

"Can you see anything?" All four of them in Ashford are not good at battlefield analysis. In addition to Al, the other three are really laymen, so they can only ask for advice with an open mind.

Neither Christina nor the son of the night can count on us. Fortunately, I have more experience in this.

"The canine Warcraft should be the man's favorite. It attracted the monster's attention with his own sacrifice. Then he took the opportunity to cut the monster's main artery with an ax. Then the monster knocked him down and trampled on his head before he died. Later, the monster died because he lost too much blood. But that's not the point. The point is, this monster is also a pet. "

"How do you know it's a pet, not a local monster?" Ashford has been here more than once, so he certainly knows what monsters there are, as he knows about the bugs. He asked because he was wondering how I knew.

"It's actually a good confirmation." I grabbed one of the monster's front legs and separated the toes of its big claws. A very clear web was displayed in front of the public. "This place is inland, and there are no lakes or large rivers nearby. How can this thing be a local creature?"

Alice said, "two of them are fighting here, dying, and hanging up a player. That is to say... "

"At least one player left alive." Said Christina.

The son of the night said calmly, "didn't you say this is a public area before? Maybe there is a conflict between the two players, PK just, there should be nothing to pay attention to? "

Compared to the ease of the son of the night, Ashford frowned and said, "no, the one who survived is the same as our destination. Although I'm not sure that he has any influence on our mission

"How do you know his destination is the same as ours?" I don't understand this time.

Ashford went to the ground next to him, twisted up a handful of white powder, and said, "it's a kind of special powder. It tastes so special that you can tell it when you smell it. I brought a lot of them this time. Although this area is a public area, only a small part of our mission site needs to use this powder. Most people don't need to go there. There is this powder, but there is no bag, indicating that it was taken by the other party. The powder is of no use except entering the place. If you don't need to go there, the other party won't take it away. "

Hearing Ashford's words, I could only frown and exclaim, "I'm beginning to realize the nuisance of this task. If you can summon the demons, let the white wave come out and smell it at this time, and all problems will be solved! " (to be continued.
