Facing the old man's question, Fang Linyan immediately noticed that Sibor's body was stiff. Obviously, this guy had neglected his debt before bringing him here angrily.
Sibor was only embarrassed for half a second, then he immediately changed the topic,
"Old Mel, someone said that the hypnosis top you made for me could be made in only one and a half hours. You actually said that you took 10 days?"
After Old Mel was stunned, he actually laughed dryly,
"Hehe, 10 days is a bit exaggerated. Weren't I in a hurry to work overtime in the fortress? I made it in my spare time. In fact, it took 4 days … Wait! "
Speaking of this, a light flashed in Old Mel's eyes,
"Someone said that it could be made in one and a half hours? It's exactly the same as mine? This is impossible! "
Sibor turned around and looked at Fang Linyan,
"This kid swore in front of me that he could do it, so I simply brought him here! Let him do it in front of you! If he is lying, then I will definitely give him an unforgettable lesson. "
Old Mel looked at Fang Linyan and said seriously,
"Child, I've also experienced my impetuous adolescence. I know that when there's a member of the opposite sex around, your damned hormones will drive you to do things that attract attention. I know you're not a bad person, so apologize to this drunkard, and I'll let you leave safely."
Fang Linyan sighed and glanced at Old Mel with a "you are still too young" look, then he said,
"With all due respect, if the hypnosis top you made is to pursue long-term rotation, then adding 3 arcs from the top at an angle of 62 degrees can extend the rotation time by at least 17.4%!"
Old Mel's face suddenly changed. He immediately stretched out his hand to Sibor and said,
"Give me the top."
Sibor took a deep look at Fang Linyan. Obviously, he didn't expect that his words could move Old Mel, then he reached into his arms and took out the hypnosis top. Old Mel frowned and looked at it for a while, then he suddenly pointed to a point and said to Fang Linyan,
"You mean to start cutting from here?"
Fang Linyan said,
"No, it's a little further. Here."
After speaking, Fang Linyan stretched out his hand and pointed. Old Mel squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time. Finally, under Sibor's astonished gaze, he actually nodded seriously. Then, the 2 began to discuss. When the discussion was intense, they even squatted on the ground, picked up the stone next to them, and wrote on the wall …
***
Half an hour later.
Old Mel hastily shut the door. One could still hear his jogging footsteps. This old engineer expressed that his brain was full of ideas, and was in a state of gushing inspiration. He urgently needed to go to his private workshop to do some manual operations, and had no time to entertain guests.
Heber stared at the closed door in a daze for a while, then he looked at Fang Linyan and pretended to be calm,
"Brat, consider yourself lucky to have passed today."
Then he turned and left, but after walking a few steps, he turned back and looked at Fang Linyan up and down. Suddenly, he pulled out a long and narrow silver rapier from his waist and handed it to Fang Linyan, "Run for a few steps.
Use all your strength to run from here to the big tree, then jump up and try your best to stab the leaves on it. Stab as many as you can, then run back. "
Fang Linyan saw the long and narrow silver rapier, and a blazing feeling immediately surged in his heart,
"Could it be that he wants to give it to me?"
So he did his best to follow his instructions, but Fang Linyan only ran for 2 or 3 seconds, Heber began to shake his head. When he jumped up, he even let out a deep sigh. When Fang Linyan ran back panting, Heber glanced at him with a contemptuous look, then he turned around and left without hesitation …
It turned out that Fang Linyan had indeed triggered the hidden mission before. If his agility could exceed 12 points and he had LV2 Basic Swordsmanship, he could get Heber's recognition, then he would start the next series of mission chains. The final reward was Heber's rapier and his unique Western Rapidlight Triangle Swordsmanship.
However, Fang Linyan's agility was only 3 points! It was worse than ordinary people. As for the LV2 Basic Swordsmanship, it was more like moral integrity. It was something that he had never heard of before …
It was no wonder that Heber, this old man, turned around and left. If he didn't leave, he would probably be unable to hold back his urge to swear in violation of the aristocratic principles!
Fortunately, shortly after Heber turned around and left, a prompt popped up on Fang Linyan's retina again,
"Contestant ZB419, you have successfully gained Heber's respect and anger."
"You have met the upgrade conditions of the title: Indifferent."
"Your title: Indifferent is upgraded to Normal Heart."
"Title: Normal Heart. After equipping this title, it will increase your hit rate by 0.5% when using long-range attacks. This title is authoritative. It can suppress conflicting skill titles below priority."
Looking at the series of prompts that popped up, Fang Linyan was dumbfounded. This title upgrade should be the compensation for not learning Heber's Swordsmanship.
Not only that, the priority was upgraded to authoritative. This seemed to be an amazing leap in qualitative change, but the problem was that the attribute enhancement of the title itself was too weak! What could a hit rate increase by 0.5% do?
But in this way, Fang Linyan had already completed 5 milestones in this world at this time. He had already obtained 6 titles that could be worn: Scholar, Murderer, Black Market (one-time), Stark's Favor (temporary), Normal Heart, Soul Imprint!
When entering the world, there was a clear message prompt that this world was a joint trial world. In addition to obtaining the above milestones, there was also an additional hidden milestone. Once 4 or more milestones were unlocked in this world, he would obtain additional rewards.
So now speaking of it, Fang Linyan could be said to have overcompleted the mission, and he had already obtained an additional reward: Strange Clue. He could only receive it after entering the 3rd stage of the joint trial.
At this time, it had been almost 60 hours since the start of the 2nd stage of the joint trial. Fang Linyan estimated that the 3rd stage would arrive soon, so he had no intention to continue to cause trouble at this time. After a big yawn, he greeted the goat, planning to eat something and find a place to rest.
The goat obviously knew much more about Yangfan City than him. When he heard that he was going to eat, he directly took Fang Linyan to a local barbecue restaurant. Although it was not noon yet, the restaurant was already crowded. He waited for more than half an hour before sitting down. At this time, the meat was sold out again, and he still had to wait for the boss to get the goods. This wait took another hour before he could eat the barbecue.
Barbecue could be said to be popular in all major planes, but this barbecue restaurant still left a deep impression on Fang Linyan because its main dish was camel barbecue, and it was a method of braising and barbecuing in a pit, which could lock the gravy more effectively.
The camel meat was fresh and tender, and on each skewer of meat, it was mixed with chili, garlic, and honeydew according to the order of meat and vegetables. The meat grilled in this way was rich and juicy, and the vegetables were mixed with oil juice. The taste was also smooth and sweet, which could be said to complement each other.
The firewood for the barbecue was a local specialty, a sun-dried shrub, and the trees collected from the river and the riverbank every year during the rainy season. The meat grilled in this way also had a special charred fragrance.
The meat skewers placed in front of Fang Linyan were cut into large and thick pieces. After biting it, the first feeling was the kind of solid and elastic taste of biting the drumstick. Then with a slight force, the tough muscle fibers were cut off, and a large amount of gravy gushed out directly on the tongue. The taste buds immediately fed the delicious and fat feeling back to the brain.
But at this time, the gravy was still gushing out, so he could only quickly lean over to avoid the delicious gravy dripping from the corner of his mouth onto his clothes. Then, he wiped the corner of his mouth with his fingers slightly awkwardly, chewed a few times, and swallowed this piece of meat in satisfaction.
After eating the first piece of meat, he immediately ate the roasted vegetables below. The taste of the roasted garlic and the fat taste in his mouth immediately had a chemical reaction. Chewing the roasted garlic made him hungrier. Eating meat without garlic, the fragrance would be reduced by half. This sentence was really well-deserved.
But the most impressive thing for Fang Linyan was not this camel barbecue skewer, but the exclusive light ale sold here.
Ale was originally a typical low-alcohol wine, not to mention the boss added water. What was impressive was that there were a lot of ants soaked in this wine! These ants were the famous honeypot ants in the local area.
Honeypot ants were like normal ants in ordinary times. Every time after heavy rain, the plants would secrete a lot of nectar, which was rare in the dry desert area. How could honeypot ants let go of a good opportunity to have a good meal? They would try their best to absorb the nectar until their bodies were about to explode, just like a balloon that was about to burst.
The belly of the honeypot ant after a full meal could reach the size of a grape! They were bloated until they were smooth and round, golden and translucent. They hung upside down above the ant nest. When there was a shortage of food, the other ants would feed on the stored nectar, and the Honeypot Ant's body would shrink to a normal level.
The moment the Honeypot Ant in the wine bit down, it exploded in the mouth. Then, a strong sweetness and fragrance burst out, as if a flower had bloomed in the mouth. After the Honeypot Ant's body was soaked in the wine, it probably had a wonderful chemical reaction. It chewed in the mouth with a crunching sound.
How to put it, the taste was like sesame seeds soaked in white wine and fried. It was crisp and delicious with a fragrance.
