Players’ NPC daddy

"Do you think I didn't notice?" Blaze's expression was stiff. The counterfeiter's words were too inflammatory. He followed them mindlessly, but after calming down, he realized that he was blinded by the passion.

It seemed as if the counterfeiter was fighting against the world and preventing the aliens from reproducing, but he knew that the aliens had so-called [real bodies]. They were just souls that came here. Although their bodies were not as good as their current physical bodies, they did not have the so-called loincloth seal.

But... as long as the result is good, that's enough. I don't ask for too much.

The skinning master's knot was untied, and he was willing to make things clear and abide by the bet.

When the Skinner appeared wearing clothes with one side yellow and the other gray, Blaze was stunned for a moment, but only for a moment.

If it were two years ago, he would have been shocked by the fact that the Skinner was a female nudist, but after meeting the stranger, these were trivial matters that were not worth mentioning.

After putting on her clothes, the Skinner was willing to have a formal talk, focusing on the specific reasons for her emotions.

The Skinner felt the prosperity of mankind through granting beast furs and the process of making beast furs. After entering the doomsday, the number of humans became fewer and fewer, and she naturally did not have many opportunities to make and grant beast furs. At the same time, she also intuitively felt the decline of mankind.

Simply put, this is a workaholic. When he has no work to do, he feels that he is no longer capable of doing anything and wants to work himself to death and fire himself.

Blazer concluded that the more benevolent a god is towards humans, the more likely he is to go to extremes, but fortunately they stopped it in time. If they were a step later, the Skinning Lord would have really peeled off his skin, and who knows what would have happened.

"So what do you want to talk to me about? You're not here just to comfort me, are you?"

"If I must say it, I'm here to explore the way for the strangers, and by the way, I want you to be mentally prepared." Blaze prepared his lines in his mind and explained what happened before. The Skinner might know about it, but he had to say it out loud first to verify the information to be foolproof.

After that, I will introduce the Stranger and the Valentine's Day warm-up event. I hope the Skinner will not mind the Stranger participating in the rebirth ceremony of the humans in the first layer of the ground world.

The Skinner doesn't care. To her, it makes no difference whether humans are made of corn or something else.

Besides, the path to rebirth is not decided by her. Since Blaze can come in, it means that anyone who is a human can come in.

As for other races, such as orcs, it is unknown whether they can come in. After all, she has never seen an orc, and it is also a very hellish thing for orcs to wear beast fur.

However, the Skinner will not rule it out. As long as they can come in, she will welcome them, cover them with beast skins, and congratulate them on their rebirth.

Blaze's questions have been answered, and the Skinner also has a question. She has one and only one question.

"I want to see some of the human harvest through the crack in the door, even if it's just my fantasy." The Skinner hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Are there many strangers? No, are there many strangers who will embark on the path of rebirth?"

"A lot, so much!" Blaze swung his arms and gestured to the maximum size his hands could reach.

"That's good." The Skinner smiled with satisfaction and tapped the handrails with his fingers, as if he was imagining the bustle of the temple.

At this time, Blaze thought of something and asked tentatively.

"Can you accept repetition, um, or continuous growth?"

"Why not, young man? Isn't that what human beings are all about? They are constantly transforming until the day they die."

Blaze had a weird look on her face, because the skinner probably thought he was talking to her about philosophy, but he was actually talking about how strangers would repeatedly farm equipment.

If the road to rebirth can only be taken once, and the beast fur suit made by the hands of God can only be obtained once, the strangers will definitely be timid. On the contrary, if they can get it at will, they will definitely go crazy to get it.

He was not worried that the monsters would be exterminated by foreigners. After all, the underground world was extremely large, larger than any part of the world on the ground, and it hid an astonishing number of monsters.

He is now more worried about whether the skinner can handle the workload. Of course, whether he can handle it is another matter. What really matters is whether the skinner can complete the work on time alone.

It felt terrible. Although he had never seen the work of a skinner, he had seen the beast fur suits made by the skinner, and you could tell they were pure handmade products.

If every piece is handmade, the skinner would probably still be in trouble when facing strangers.

"Well, do you need some external help, such as..."

"What!?" The Skinner raised his eyebrows, and the displeasure in his tone was far greater than when Blaze asked her to put on her clothes.

"Are you doubting the only thing I'm good at? Just watch!"

The skinner suddenly reached out and grabbed the tail of the dangling Smoke Mirror, then he pulled it, and with a ripping sound, the skin of the Smoke Mirror was peeled off.

"Ahhhhhhhhh?" Blaze subconsciously covered his eyes, trying to avoid such a bloody and violent scene, but his eyesight was amazing, and he had already seen the scene of skinning when he covered his eyes.

In fact, it was not a bloody and brutal scene. The Skinner did peel off the fur of Smoke Mirror, but the "Skinner" in the Skinner's name means peeling off the dead skin and welcoming rebirth.

So the smoke mirror was just stripped of its dead skin, and the entire leopard was not only intact, but even looked brand new.

"Oh~~~ It's been a long time since I last had skinning moment. I feel my whole body is lighter." Smoke Mirror stretched his body hard, as if his whole body was being massaged, or as if he had taken a comfortable hot bath.

Now we don’t have to worry about foreigners destroying the ecology.

"Well, can I..." Blaze was moved.

"No." The Skinner answered simply and crisply, as if he knew what Blaze wanted to ask.

"I can only skin wild beasts, and you are a human. Even if you transform into a wild beast, you are still a human. And only the wild beasts that came here with the challenger meet the standards for the skinning ceremony."

"What? Do you think my fur is not as good as yours?" Smoke Mirror breathed at Blaze provocatively.

"My leather is invulnerable to swords and guns, and can shatter magic. It can even block Gungnir."

"Well, yours is better."

Chapter 1393 Night Leopard Fur

Blaze brought good news to the players, that is, there is a kind-hearted god in this first-level ground world. As long as you capture a monster stronger than yourself alive, you can get a set of beast furs made by her for free.

It is tailor-made for the gods, and no matter how low your level is, you will have the opportunity to get customization, and you don’t have to worry about wasting times, you can do it as many times as you want.

Of course the best news is that the ritual that the gods use to make beast fur equipment is called the skinning ritual. Although it sounds scary, the skinned monsters will not die, but will be brand new!

Doesn’t this mean that you can brush it infinitely?

It’s broken, it’s another pseudo-infinite pool.

The only drawback is that the beast fur suit customized by the god can only be used by the god himself. In the hands of others, it is just an ordinary beast fur.

It’s no wonder that they could only feel that the things on the people of Turan City were equipment, but after identification, they were just ordinary animal furs.

It’s not a pity.

After Blaze explained the situation to the strangers, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. This Valentine's Day warm-up event finally did not have many obvious hidden dangers, and he could finally take a good look at what he had gained.

[Black Mirror Eyes Night/Mythical Level]

[Lord of Impermanence, King of the Present, Black Tezcatlipoca——What kind of power will you get after wearing the fur of Smoke Mirror? You will know only after you wear it.]

The level is not surprising, this is just the skin of Smoke Mirror. Smoke Mirror is the only one left among the ancient gods who still possess unparalleled power.

But Blazer sensed a thick layer of smoke and mirror-like malice from the last sentence of the appraisal result, so he just let him try it on and try it himself.

Blaze was not going to compromise, he wanted to explore it himself first. He started from the name and focused on the head of the fur.

Generally, the head of a beast fur mask is used as a mask to cover the upper half of the face, and the holes where the eyes are are usually left so that the wearer can see outside.

However, the eyes of [Black Mirror Eyes Night] were blocked, and two obsidians were inlaid there, making them look like sunglasses.

Blaze tried to put on the [Black Mirror Eyes Night]. The skinner's craftsmanship was impeccable and it fit his body perfectly. After putting on the night leopard hood, his vision was indeed pitch black.

Of course, this would help activate [Blindness] and [Mark of Saint Longinus], but Blaze really didn't want to rely too much on these two abilities. Wouldn't he be badly hurt if he ran into Smoke Mirror, the more experienced Lord of the Night?

"Hmm?" Blaze tilted his head. His hearing seemed to be enhanced, as was his sense of smell.

"I see. This is a [incomplete] piece of equipment."

Just like the Smoke Mirror has a missing left foot but has the ability to teleport through smoke, [Black Mirror Eye Night] will deprive the eyesight but will greatly enhance other senses.

It's not just a little bit of an enhancement, he has the feeling of being able to construct the surrounding scene through sound like a bat.

"awesome."

The effect of [Black Mirror Eyes Night] is not just that. It can enhance strength and agility. The obsidian lenses can also spray deadly smoke. However, it is a pity that you cannot teleport through the smoke.

Blazer took off the Night Panther hood and gave himself a break. He hadn't gotten used to the feeling of constructing the world with his ears and nose.

Overall, this is a very good piece of equipment that can be very effective in certain situations. Unfortunately, the equipment that covers the entire body is bound to conflict with his fighting style. It is unknown whether it can withstand the physical changes when transforming into a silver werewolf.

However, Blaze did not plan to take it off now. It was the Valentine's Day warm-up event, and wearing animal skins would be the festive attire for the next few days. It would look strange if he did not wear the animal skins at that time.

After resting for a while in the temporary shop of [Hermes's Travel Hat], Blaze got up to check the most important thing.

Why did he come here?

The raw material of chocolate, cocoa beans!

Blaze walked into the cocoa orchard in Turan City. It was larger than the one in Kulenena, the cocoa trees were bigger, and the cocoa beans were naturally bigger.

Compared to here, the cocoa trees in Kulene are like saplings.

According to Weimark, the cacao tree is a sacred plant brought to humanity from deeper underground by the Quetzalcoatl, and is one of the few plants that can thrive in this extreme environment, relying only on the light of the sun's scales.

At the same time, cocoa beans are also the main food source for the remaining humans. However, now that they have a passage to the surface world, food will no longer be a problem. They also have a large number of local specialty materials that can be used as bargaining chips.

Just like the beast fur suit, the fur is not peeled off by the skinner, but by the hunter, so you can wear it at will.

The humans here have been fighting monsters from the ancient times of the gods until now, so they have stockpiled a large number of beast fur suits, which can be used to mass-produce legions if traded.

It would be bad for any force to have this power, so it was purchased by [Hermes's Brigade Hat] as an intermediary to strengthen the escort team for transporting goods.

Speaking of the Guard, Blaze could occasionally meet the captain of the Guard who introduced Catherine to him at Hermes's Brigade Hat, but the two of them just nodded to each other.

Both of them were very busy. Needless to say, Blazer was promoted to the position of leader of the guard after his experience in guarding Herbie and Audrey. The families of those who died in the guard were also properly arranged.

It was a difficult time for both Herbie and Audrey, and they showed different attitudes than before.

"I think it's Kullene's fault. He didn't even bother to use his divine power for such a big thing."

"Come on, he's a stranger." Kullene appeared from behind Blaze out of nowhere and gave an irrefutable answer as always.

"Do you know what the strangers do when faced with an unexpected, undefeatable enemy?"

"Find a bunch of people to beat me to death. I know. I'm just complaining. But you." Blaze glanced at Kullene. "How dare you show up here?"

"Now that the problem has been solved, of course I have to come down and arrange some work for an old acquaintance here." Kullene slapped his mouth as soon as he said this. Sure enough, Blaze was looking at him with a look of garbage.

"Ahem, well, at least it's consensual, right?"

"With your face, your mouth, your figure, and your knowledge, there is no such thing as mutual consent. I am just being fooled by you."

"Uh..." Kullene touched the back of his head. Blaze was scolding him, but the scolding sounded nice, so he rarely shut down.

"Come to think of it, why are the cocoa trees there so small, but grow so big despite the harsh environment here?" Blaze patted the cocoa tree.

"Ah~ this~" Kullene touched his chin and smiled meaningfully, "Don't you know that once an alien species invades, the ecosystem will launch a counterattack?"

"That seems to be the case, but you only have a few trees."

“The number of trees is not the point. The point is whether [they] mind.”

"They?" Blaze was stunned and became interested.

"Your old friend, the golden sea of ​​trees~"

Chapter 1394: Courage to Enter

"Why did you suddenly mention the Golden Sea of ​​Trees?"

Blaze frowned and rubbed his arms subconsciously.

Cyrene is not only one of the ancient gods, but also has been wandering in this world, observing the changes in the world with a playful attitude, which means that Cyrene has mastered the laws of some phenomena.

In a way, what he said was like ants moving before it rains, foreshadowing the big events that are about to come. However, animals that foresee the danger choose to take shelter, while he braved the rapids and fished in the wind and waves.

And the big ship that can sail against the wind and waves is the [Hermes' Traveling Hat].

The Golden Sea of ​​Trees is a very important part of this world. Perhaps in the Age of Gods it was just a part of the [World Tree], where the elves lived.

But when the Age of Gods came to an end, the earth was shattered, life faded, the suns chased each other in the sky, and everything was in chaos, it was the golden sea of ​​trees that served as the source of life, constantly spreading seeds and repairing the top world.

It can be said that the Golden Forest is the cornerstone of the birth of all life today. It is the defender of life, fighting against the evil blood left behind by the Titan evil god after his death, which would cause life forms to be deformed. Even now, it still acts as a defender of life.

They formed a row of barriers in World R, protecting the world from being submerged by the sea. Even the mission of returning the twelve constellations was entrusted to him by a tree of life representing the golden sea of ​​trees.

"Has the Golden Sea of ​​Trees been invaded by other species?" This was probably the only thing Blaze could think of. No matter how magical the Golden Sea of ​​Trees was, it was still essentially a sea of ​​trees, with all the troubles that trees would have.

For example, whether the sun rises as usual, or some insect plagues that would be considered major disasters in other places, but these are only minor problems and the elves will handle them. If they are a little difficult, they will summon strangers.

Now that World R is open, the true form of the Golden Sea of ​​Trees has been revealed to foreigners, so there is no need to worry.

"...No, not yet. But do you know why the Golden Sea of ​​Trees has always been so diligent in defending life and has never made a mistake?"

"Because of its own nature?"

"A long period of time and constant setbacks are enough to change anything. There is nothing truly eternal in this world." When Kullene saw Blaze raise his hand, he knew that Blaze didn't want to play the guessing game with him.

"Okay, okay, impatient boy, that's because the Golden Sea of ​​Trees itself doesn't have a clear self."

"What kind of answer is that? Isn't the Tree of Life quite eloquent?" Blaze thought of the Tree of Life that gave him the chicken and the power of the Night Watch.
