Chapter 10 Claw Dagger
Zhao Mai took the chocolate bar, peeled off the packaging, ate half of it in front of Carl, and handed the remaining half over. The old Ranger took a light bite and was startled by the amazing sweetness. He looked at Zhao Mai and did not continue eating, but carefully stuffed it into the bag around his waist.
Even with the gesture, the two agreed to share pork equally, and they both thought they had taken advantage of it. The fact that they could eat cooked meat made Zhao Mai feel relieved. He believed that half a chocolate bar was far less helpful to his stomach and intestines, let alone establishing a preliminary relationship with a local ranger, which was a big advantage. In fact, Carl also had a similar idea. He felt that the "other world food" he obtained was something of higher value.
Go back and continue working. Chimera's claws are nearly thirty centimeters long, with a slightly curved front end, which looks like a fruit knife with a single side edge. The rear half becomes round and won't hurt your hands when you hold it. When cutting the flesh, Chimera's claws are much more useful than daggers, and they can peel off the skin without any stagnation.
This is the first weapon Zhao Mai got, and he used it very seriously. If you have the opportunity, you need to make it a handle that is not easy to slip, which will further improve its practicality.
Carl saw everything. Chimera's claws were very sharp, much better than ordinary daggers. He had already known this knowledge. However, he also knew one thing, that is, these claws were prone to decay and would start to soften if they couldn't last a week, and would be no different from human nails in two weeks.
The power that creates Chimera's sharp claws is magic, and magic will slowly pass, especially after Chimera's death. Only the mage can perfectly deal with the remains of magical creatures, preserve and even solidify the magic power contained in it for a longer period of time. The druids in the woodland also have similar abilities, but are limited to the power from creatures. The priests of the temple prefer to deal with materials related to divine power.
As a Jungle Ranger, Carl also has some simple spells. However, the healing spells he cast are not as effective as using herbs, so he rarely exercises this ability. The power he trusts mainly is the crossbow behind him and the sharp blade on his waist. Not long ago, I heard rumors from Neibo Town that something strange happened in the Viper Cliff Castle upstream of the lake. He was about to go and take a look, but he found Chimera halfway through the way, so he began to chase.
The "meteor" falling from the sky killed Chimera and also sent this strange alien to him. Carl believed that there was the power of the gods involved in this, and he needed to make bold assumptions and carefully prove it, and maybe it would be helpful to the subsequent tasks.
The meat outside the boar legs had been roasted, and he cut it with a dagger and placed it on a plate made of thatch. "Mike! Eat!"
Zhao Mai had been waiting for this matter for a long time, so he hurriedly put away the "Claw of Chimera" and then rushed over. He first stuffed a piece of steaming pork into his mouth, wrapping it with a wild aroma that filled his mouth. Without any seasoning, and even salt, the wild boar directly baked exuded a greasy smell. If he was at home, he would definitely not eat this monotonous food, but after working for a while, this was the best delicacy.
After chewing it hard for a few times, the first piece of meat slid into his throat. Zhao Mai took up the second piece, and then found that Carl was still flipping the pig's legs, and there was no second plate in front of him. Based on the good tradition of respecting the elderly and loving the young, Zhao Mai handed the meat over and signaled the old ranger to eat it together.
Carl did not stop what was in his hand, but just tilted his head and opened his mouth, meaning that he wanted Zhao Mai to feed him. Zhao Mai didn't care. After getting closer, he started to feed the old man together. While eating, Carl looked at Zhao Mai's expression. He found that the young man's eyes were pure and the kindness he expressed was also from the heart, so he began to slowly accept him.
After lunch, the two of them continued to work, one dealt with the wild boar and the other dealt with the Chimera. Carl acted quickly and quickly packed up the remaining essence of the wild boar, and then came over to peel it together.
He held the dagger, just like a slaughter of a cattle, and his work efficiency was ten times that of Zhao Mai. He often slowed down his movements and demonstrated his skills and experience to Zhao Mai. Since he couldn't speak, he could only rely on repeated imitations to understand the tricks. Zhao Mai knew that this was a rare opportunity and focused on learning from the old ranger.
The two of them worked together and soon got a complete Chimera skin. Carl decided to deal with the skin well and then make one or two leather armors. He asked Zhao Mai to carry the rolled skin and carry the wild boar meat himself, and prepared to move north along the lake shore.
From a high altitude, the shape of the Ashes Lake is very tempting to the character "Bu". The two rivers pour a lot of water from the uppermost end of the vertical and the rightmost end of the point. Neibo Town is at the bottom of the vertical, and the Viper Cliff Fort is above that point. In vivid terms, Zhao Mai and the others are at the armpit of the character "Bu", and they need to circle the lake shore for half a circle before they can reach their destination.
Seeing that he would not enter the dense forest for a while, Zhao Mai invited Carl to take a car, and the two of them advanced along the lake shore. The ground here is relatively flat, and there will be no sand pits that can easily collapse in places with pebbles. Although bumps and shaking are inevitable, the car is always more labor-saving than walking.
Carl was very nervous when he got into the car. The sudden light-up dashboard and the rumbling engine even scared him. Zhao Mai said "no malicious intention" to comfort him, and slowly drove the car up.
After walking, Carl became much better. He gradually realized that this was a carriage driven by magic, but it was a little more magical and nothing scary. Even if it was great, it was just a tool. So not long after, his curiosity gradually gained the upper hand. He sat in the carriage and looked around, and it was no different from a big child.
This is a good phenomenon, Zhao Mai thought, so he didn't stop the old Ranger from doing anything. While driving, he kept paying attention to the oil meter. The remaining amount of oil displayed on the intelligent dashboard did not move for an hour.
Is the indestructible part also the oil in the fuel tank? What exactly has the car been transformed into and where does its power come from? This is a magical and interesting discovery.
Along the way, Zhao Mai was thinking about how to use this car. As a time traveler, if he could not make good use of the "golden finger", wouldn't it be a waste of resources. The whole car is indestructible and it seems that it can drive forever, but when the road traffic network is lost, the car can play a very small role.
If you can remove a window as a shield, it will greatly increase your chances of survival. But first, you will not dismantle the car, and secondly, there seems to be no tools that can destroy the "indestructible" characteristics. If you remove the window, it is still a matter of whether you can install it back. If you encounter an environment like the Yunzhongcheng battlefield, if you cannot keep the car closed without a window, it will definitely be a death.
