Chapter 99 Five-ball linkage
After covering up the body, the team came to the entrance of the mine and fired a signal flare.

Let Chu Ying stay behind while Li Ming covers the cat cart and comes to the cave to collect ore.

Which mineral is most suitable for ingesting and has the best effect on the formation of [mineral skin] is still unclear.

So Li Ming decided to collect a certain amount of each ore first.

Ding Ding!Dangdang!
The sound of the cat tapping with a small mining pick echoed continuously.

The scattered small veins of minerals were quickly collected, and the ambulance cat cart containing the materials harvested by the rock dragon was fully loaded.

As for the other two catcarts, they are unable to carry ore due to the small explosive barrels they carry.

Li Ming was a little confused.

He also did not expect that the battle with the rock dragon would take place deep in the lava cave, causing the explosive barrel to be unusable due to the high temperature environment.

It would be a pity to discard it on the spot, and it would take up a lot of transportation capacity to transport it back.

When he was struggling, Li Ming found that most of the cats who were mining were finding it extremely difficult to dig.

After investigation, we learned that all the exposed veins had been collected, so we could only dig into the rock wall for in-depth collection.

"Back in Bokai Village, there seemed to be a method of mining with explosive bombs."

Li Ming recalled.

"You mean meow."

Midoduo suddenly understood.

Not long after, all the cats were called together and began to work together to dig into a rock wall with a large number of mineral veins.

When the hole on the rock wall surface is large enough, two cat trucks enter the mine.

Small explosive barrels were stuffed in one by one, stacked, and then everyone evacuated to the entrance of the cave.

After lighting the extra-long fuse, Li Ming and the cats covered their ears and lay down behind the rock.

boom!boom!
After a series of explosions, Li Ming led the team into the mine to check.

Various ore fragments splashed out from the mine pit covered the ground.

"Small explosive barrels are less powerful individually, but when stacked in large numbers in a small space, the destructive power is still good."

Li Ming sighed.

After the cats picked it up, they loaded it onto the empty cat cart and entered the mine with small pickaxes to continue digging.

At the entrance of the cave, a dark-skinned middle-aged man rushed over.

"I am the silent investigator, Zelu."

"Hello, Investigator Zelu, the body of the rock dragon is deep in the lava cave. We have thrown a large number of dye balls into it to calibrate it. Please be more careful."

Chuying informed the situation.

"it is good."

Zelu looked at the team's contract and entered the mine.

In the evening, the team completed the contract certification and returned to the camp.

According to Zelu's assessment of the location of the rock dragon's body, the possibility of successful transportation is relatively high.

Rest overnight and pack up the camp site on the small island.

The team went to the ore transfer point in the outer area of ​​the lava cave. After retrieving the truck, Li Ming bought a book at the transfer point to educate the miners about minerals.

Driving back on the road, I read and studied.

In my spare time, I will also take some of the transported ores and conduct comparative studies with the actual objects.

As for the ingestion method, since teeth cannot chew the ore, even the smallest particles can only be partially digested after swallowing.

Those that are difficult to digest, such as chanchite and pylonite, basically remain the same when they come out.

Iron ore absorbs crystals from the earth relatively well, but there is obviously a long way to go before it can generate [mineral skin].

Just when the research came to a standstill, Li Ming accidentally saw someone sawing a wood pile on the side of the road.

Seeing the flying sawdust, an idea came to mind.

Li Ming tried to use frog style and ring head to scoop up larger pieces of ore, and used high-pressure backfill chop to cut.

Then extract only the powdery powder from the cracks and drink it with water.

The absorption rate soared and the skin condition also changed significantly.

During the remaining three days of the journey, Li Ming took a different mineral powder every day and recorded the changes in a small notebook.

Iron ore has a moderate layer thickness on the skin surface and is slightly hard to the touch. It is difficult to puncture with a hunter's knife and difficult to cut.

Disadvantages: The skin is too tight, and dryness and cracking will occur when it reaches a certain level.

The earth is crystallized, and the surface of the skin is thicker, with a small amount of oil exuding and a small amount of pale white patches. The tip of the knife is easy to penetrate, but it has a strong sense of obstruction and is difficult to cut.

Disadvantages: Still tight skin, dry and cracked skin.

Chanchite has a very shallow layer on the surface of the skin and has a bluish metallic luster. It can be pierced by the tip of a knife exerting heavy pressure, and it is easier to cut after piercing.

Disadvantages: Tight skin, dry and cracked skin, which cannot be relieved by soaking in water.

Just when they were about to try the Hualong Stone, the team returned to the Nuanyangyang camp.

Seeing that no cat came back with him, Daoji's expectant smile soon solidified on his face.

Li Ming's reasons were also very good. This hunting was conducted in the core area of ​​the lava cave. There was no cat camp established at all, so naturally they could not be recruited.

"I understand, after all, hunting is important. What is that?"

The spine of the knife refers to the spider's nest on the roof of the car.

"My brother, Spider."

"Uh, isn't Spider Spider following Spider Spider?"

"These three are different. They have cut off the need for reproduction, so they are easy to raise. Find a shady place to help them settle down, and feed them some animal meat regularly."

"It's pretty furry and cute, leave it to me."

"There's something I want to know about. Is the Rock Dragon Shield, Axe, Giant Divine Weapon worth building?"

"That poison attribute shield ax is not very applicable. If you have spare money, you can try it."

"I understand. I'm going to take a rest first. There's still a lot to do next."

Li Ming stretched himself and returned to his two-story building.

The next day, go to the fortress and sell some ores and dragon tears, with a total profit of 14700z.

Li Ming went to the branch again and asked Shui Yun to register for member recruitment.

He felt that the ruthless team was already well-known, so recruiting the members he wanted wouldn't be a problem.

When he returned to the camp in the afternoon, Li Ming concentrated on studying the adaptability of [Mineral Epidermis].

The first day is the Radiant Dragon Stone, the second day is the Linghe Stone, the third day is the White Dove Stone, the fourth day is the Sky Light Crystal, and the fifth day is the Red Lotus Stone.
"Mi Duoduo, why does Li Ming's face look different every day?"

There was a bonfire in the center of the camp, Bubu asked curiously.

"He's been drinking a nutritional supplement recently and said it's normal."

Mido explained.

"Oh, but the food intake has also decreased, nya."

"This is not normal, nya."

Midoduo looked worried.

"Any other weird behavior lately, meow?"

"Li Ming is very concerned about his skin recently, and even records the changes."

"Diet, take care of your skin. Li Ming must be in love, meow!"

Bubu looked very understanding.

"No way, meow! He hasn't left camp in days."

Midoduo firmly denied it.

"Maybe his sweetheart is in the camp, meow."

Bubu raised his head and looked around.

"Blue Bearmon's gauntlet hasn't been taken off yet, I don't believe it, nya."

Click~The door opens at this time.

Li Ming walked towards the newly built ore warehouse carrying the frog style and ring-headed fist.The two cats looked at each other and covered their ears tightly.

Soon, a piercing scream sounded.

A summary of the five-day study has been conducted, and a preliminary understanding of the effects of ingesting the ore has been obtained.

The [mineral skin] generated by red lotus stone has good fire resistance.

Iron ore prevents splitting, and earth crystals prevent puncture.

The skin formed by ingesting Linghe Stone is not easily penetrated by lightning.

However, these intakes have a disadvantage that cannot be ignored, that is, when the intake is increased and the intensity of production is increased, the negative effects of skin tightening and dryness and cracked skin will be aggravated.

Among them, tight skin can be tolerated with willpower, while dry and cracked skin will tear the generated [mineral epidermis] in chunks.

Li Ming tried many solutions, but none worked.

However, the body of the rock dragon has been transported back, and I am planning to try to build a rock dragon armor tomorrow to stimulate it with materials to see if the negative effects of [Mineral Skin] can be alleviated.

But it doesn't actually have much expectations for this method.

Because judging from past experience, the actual effect is most likely to enhance the [mineral epidermis], and at the same time, the negative effects will also increase simultaneously.

In other words, proliferation will accelerate, but at the same time, tightness and cracking will also accelerate.

He rubbed his eyes and closed the book.

Li Ming, who was mentally exhausted, picked up the water glass containing the forcible medicine on the table.

As soon as he raised it to his mouth, he put it back and leaned back against the back of the chair.

"It seems that the human body's adaptability has its limits after all."

No fog ball had ever materialized that had puzzled him for so long.

The first thing that can be thought of is that the [mineral epidermis] has reached the upper limit of adaptation of the human body.

After all, these fog balls are originally generated by monsters based on their own ecology and characteristics, and are not for human use at all.

It seems to be a normal phenomenon that it cannot be started normally.

But after putting so much effort into it, it ended in failure, and Li Ming was somewhat unwilling to do so.

After sighing, he lowered his head and looked at his chest.

[Iron Stomach], [Mineral Skin], [Incomplete Digestion], three fog balls are arranged downward in the hole.

The two remaining holes in his abdomen were now empty, like a dark abyss.

"The human body's adaptability has its limits after all. But the ability to intervene in checks and balances is also not something the human body can possess."

Lightning flashed in Li Ming's mind.

The loading combination of fog balls may not only have mutual superposition and increase.

Using human body linkage to create checks and balances is also a feasible application method.

Reaching forward, as many as three circles of fog balls appeared around him.

With a quick flick, two white fog balls were selected.

They are respectively, "Sagging skin" and "Oil production" of Dermatosaurus.

If we use these two balls to check and balance the negative effects of [mineral epidermis], will we be able to break through the limitations of the human body?
The five fog balls are linked together to ensure that one of the fog balls can take effect with high intensity under a state of checks and balances.

Li Ming had never thought of trying this kind of thing before.

“If you don’t try it, you’ll never know the result.”

gudu~gudu~
After draining the forcible medicine in the cup, Li Ming shouldered the frog style and ring-head slap and strode out.

It was late at night, and the camp shrouded in moonlight was unusually quiet.

Except for the armed force Maomao who was on duty at night, the rest of the members fell asleep.

Li Ming didn't want to disturb the people at night, so he put on a power-increasing fog ball and dragged a piece of chanchite from the ore warehouse toward the mountain.

Before leaving the camp, three Chen spiders jumped out from the ground, wrapped their silk into strips of chanchite, and helped drag them along.

"Thanks, good brother."

When we came to the mountains and forests, we had another difficulty in cutting.

As a result of banging on the rock wall all day long to store energy and cut ore, the frog type and ring-head whip suffered serious wear and tear.

Routine polishing and maintenance can no longer keep it in usable condition, so it can only be sent to the processor for in-depth maintenance and care.

But there are only water-type weapons, which have the best cutting effect on various types of ores.

"I know you are not a cutting tool. Please help me one last time. I will send you for in-depth maintenance tomorrow."

After Li Ming finished chanting, he came to the rock wall and prepared to tap to store energy.

Not far away, a green bear beast with numerous small wounds all over its body appeared in the trees.

After several confrontations with Nuanyangyang Camp, this green bear beast suffered a lot.

However, as they grasped the hive and the grab-and-run tactics took effect several times, the opponent gradually figured out the routine of the camp.

Hearing the sound of knocking on the rock wall, Blue Bearmon leaned in.

Under the moon, a man and a bear met unexpectedly.

"Li Ming, your supper is baked, why is there blood on me!"

Midoduo, who was rubbing his eyes sleepily, woke up immediately when he saw Li Ming covered in blood.

"It's okay. I just met a green bear beast and sawed it twice. I have important things to do tonight, so you should go to bed early."

Li Ming picked up the barbecue, returned to the house, and untied the cloth bag hanging on his back.

wow~ wow~
A large amount of bright blue chanchite powder was poured onto the surface of the roasted meat that was filled with burnt aroma.

After loading the [Mineral Skin], Li Ming didn't have much objection to swallowing the mineral powder. On the contrary, it gave him the mellow experience of chewing dry milk powder.

If you swallow this large amount, you should be able to know the results two hours later.

Li Ming checked the loaded fog balls one last time and ate the barbecue.

The next day, the sun rose.

Li Ming changed the decadent image he had been studying hard these days, dressed neatly and walked out of the room early.

I went to the plantation area and observed the bomb workshop.

Midoduo, who was returning from fetching water with a bucket, waved his paws to say hello.

"Li Ming, you woke up very early today."

"I didn't sleep, but I'm in good shape."

Li Ming stood still on the spot. Under the slanting sunlight, the exposed skin of his neck flashed with a crystal-like blue arc.

Midoduo leaned forward and put down the bucket. After observing carefully, he rubbed his eyes with his cat's paw.

Only then did I feel that I had made a mistake. There was nothing unusual about Li Ming's exposed skin.

"What were the results of last night's research?"

"It was quite successful, and my ideas were greatly expanded."

"Although I don't know what you are studying, I will definitely support you, meow. The water will be boiled soon. Remember to wash your face quickly."

Midoduo ran into the house carrying the bucket.

"Ah."

The discovery of linked checks and balances greatly increased Li Ming's human body's adaptability limit.

But it also exposed a problem, that is, there must be enough optional types of fog balls to establish corresponding linkage checks and balances.

"Li Ming, did you use this shield ax to make a large-scale continuous hunting contract?"

It was quite surprising to see the severely worn frog style and ring-head whip on the blade's spine.

"Help me, do some deep maintenance."

"Okay. I heard that you have been collecting mineral powder recently."

"Yes."

"Those things are everywhere in the workshop. You should be able to pick them up at any time. Don't harm Shield Ax anymore."

Li Ming's eyes darkened when he heard the reminder from the sword spine.
