Genius One Second Remember Love Go Away? To provide you with exciting novels to read.

Dawnlight did not say that NPCs could not be offended. As long as he made the first move and you could defeat him, you could kill NPCs and loot them.

However, intelligent NPCs were not idiots. Link hesitated for a moment and decided to give the carving knife to Lu Li first. According to the system rules, he had to reward players for completing this stage of the quest.

System: Quest completed. Reward: Experience Points, Reputation Points, Gold Coins, and Link's Small Carving Knife.

The experience points, reputation points, and coins were all pitiful. Only the carving knife made Lu Li's eyes light up.

Link's carving knife (Special): Agility + 15, carving speed + 20%, carving success rate + 10%, durability 75/100

Among the support items for Life Skills, this was already the best equipment that players could obtain through regular quests. At least, Lu Li had never heard of a better engineering item.

Of course, this carving knife was far inferior to Lu Li's hammer.

Cresso's hammer (Special): Strength + 20, forging speed + 30%, forging success rate + 20%, level + 1, exclusive to Lu Li, durability 100/100

The difference in attributes was obvious. What made the two items even more incomparable was the level + 1 of Cresso's hammer. It was a priceless treasure. However, Lu Li did not look down on this carving knife. He was very satisfied with it.

The most time-consuming part of engineering was not molding, assembling, or smelting ores, because ores could be smelted at any time.

If it took ten minutes to complete an item, at least eight of those minutes would be spent on carving an engineering circle. If the carving speed was increased by 20%, it would save at least a minute.

Moreover, there was also the increase in success rate. If one made a mistake when carving an engineering circle, it was best not to try to fix it.

Unless one was an engineering grandmaster, it would be a waste of time.

"Next, I hope you can help me recover my memory." Link held his sword and finally regained his confidence. At least, he felt that he was already at a height where he could look down on players.

In terms of role-playing, he was the one who issued the quest, while players could only work for experience points and rewards.

Unfortunately, Lu Li was not that kind of person. He put away the small carving knife and glanced at the dwarf with contempt — the kind that looked down on him. He replied lazily, "I'm sorry, I don't have time to play with you. You can play by yourself."

Link's face turned red with anger. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do.

Players fawned over NPCs for the sake of EXP and rewards. However, once EXP and rewards failed to attract players, who would care about each other?

Lu Li straightened his clothes, bowed, and left.

Link's mission chain was known as Dawn's number one scam. Only when people thought that there might be something good would they persist in doing it. However, when more and more people started doing it, no one would receive a decent reward. This chain of missions would then be completely abandoned.

As a reincarnated player, Lu Li certainly wouldn't do it foolishly. All he wanted was the small carving knife that had appeared at the beginning of the mission.

Only with the small carving knife did Lu Li dare to do it.

The Gnomish Poultryizer was considered a high-end product in the field of engineering. It was more complicated and detailed than the self-destructing sheep that Lu Li had created. If there was a problem in any part, it would immediately be scrapped, and the materials could not be salvaged.

Lu Li gathered ten sets of materials from the warehouse and placed them neatly on the workbench. He then turned off all external channels.

The Gnomish Poultryizer was made up of three parts — hardened adamantine tubes, Khorium energy core, main structure, and some other trivial parts.

The most important part was the Khorium energy core. A piece of Khorium ore was refined into a small piece of Khorium ingot. An engineering energy gathering circle was engraved on it, and when activated, it would emit a beam of energy.

The hardened adamantine tubes were used to restrain this energy and concentrate it on the target.

Lu Li carefully adjusted the temperature of the furnace so that the Khorium ore could be slowly smelted out of the impurities. This process was actually very simple, completely different from the real world.

In the real world, the purification of ores was a huge industry.

In the game, it was so simplified that it made people speechless. Soon, a piece of Khorium ore was formed. The gold ingot had a faint white glow, and it felt hot to the touch.

This was the effect of energy release. Khorium ore was by far the most suitable ore to be used as an energy core.

After the rise of Dawnlight. Many internet slogans also became popular. One of them was "Blinding my Khorium Ore Dog Eyes". The description was too shocking and shocking, causing the viewers to feel as if they were going blind after watching it.

Lu Li first tried using a normal carving knife. This kind of carving knife was very slow, and he used a lot of strength to carve out a blurry pattern.

The blurry pattern would not only affect the success rate, but it would also affect the effect of the finished product.

After switching to Link's small carving knife, he could clearly feel the sharpness increase. Lu Li was overjoyed. This way, the speed increase would not just be 20%.

After carving the required Engineering Magic Circles on the Khorium ore, the originally glowing ingot dimmed. Only after the activation of the device would the energy in the Khorium Ingot be released again. Of course, these Engineering Circles weren't as simple as controlling energy. Lu Li couldn't understand it, but he guessed that there had to be something that could explain how a creature could turn into a chicken.

Next was the hardened Adamantine tube. First, the Adamantine was melted into liquid, and then poured into a mold to cool it. Soon, a hardened Adamantine tube was formed.

These things could actually be done by an Engineering Apprentice. There were young NPCs in the mercenary hall who specialized in this, and even female assistants could be hired.

If one had a unique taste, there were also female Dwarves, Gnomes, and even female Draenei.

Of course, this was just work.

Hardened Adamantine tubes also had to be carved with magic circles, but compared to the ones on the Khorium ore ingot, it was simpler. Adamantine was softer than Khorium ore, and a few simple cuts were enough to complete the task.

Lu Li made ten hardened Adamantine tubes in one go. He would be using them later anyway.

As the number of carvings increased, the more proficient he became, the less time he would spend.

Then there were some small parts, such as the outer shell, firing mechanism, fusing agent, and so on. Finally, there was the assembly. Determining whether an item was successfully made was also the last step.

Lu Li carefully checked each part, and only started assembling when he felt that he was 70% to 80% confident.

Even though Lu Li didn't lack materials and wasn't as poor as he used to be, he was still nervous and his heart was beating faster. This was something that had been made with Krypton Gold. If he failed, he would lose dozens of gold coins.

Dozens of gold coins was equivalent to one or two months of a normal person's salary.
