.
As for the one who led them here, the so-called treasure finder, although Max was very interested in her talent but he had no leads to find her, plus he had more important things to focus on.
“alright, let's go home and inspect what we got from the dungeon. By the way, Lu, did you move the other things.?”
‘close, just behind you’
“Great. “
................
Soon Max landed next to his house, and the crows welcomed his return happily.
craw! Craw!. craw! Craw!
......
“Sigh, home sweet home.” Max jumped on his bed as he looked at psychic crow mok.
“so how was their progress mok, anyone been lazying around?”.
Mok didn't hesitate and pointed his wing towards Imlak.
Imlak the only crow without an Elemental affinity, just looked at Max innocently.
“huh? well let Lucy handle the punishment, but for now you go play outside but don't leave the mountain. “
CRAW! CRAW! CRAW!.
The crows didn't hesitate and flew up immediately, mok included.
After all, this bunch of newborns didn't get the chance to explore outside freely until now.
“Lucy, keep an eye on them, and bring all the loot here.”
‘OKyyyyyYyyyy’.
Little Lu seemed unusually excited, but Max didn't think about it much. She might just be excited because of the loot.
“alright let's get started.”
Max brought out the items in the space ring first, then Lucy brought everything else outside of the mountain house.
“Simulator, scan everything.”
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
The items designated by the host do not directly impact the host, nor are they considered as pets.
Therefore, only a superficial scan will be provided. For a more thorough scan, please provide a reason and describe the circumstances.]
“ superficial scan should be enough. “
Max was very good at bullshitting, so he didn't consider the simulator’s report as a problem. It's just that for now Max didn't think he had any items that required the same deep scanning performed on the pets.
This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
Soon every thing was scanned and organized. Among the large pile of random objects, only a few were worth mentioning.
A fist sized black diamond, which is actually a C-rank forging material imbued with the shadow element.
And among the pile of raw ores, only one was judged as E-rank
A watermelon sized ore, this mineral was golden colored, but other than toughness it didn't hold any unique characteristics.
As for the plants, none of them were worth much, according to the simulator.
Next, Max looked at the glowing items, although they didn't look special since they stopped glowing once he got out of the dungeon.
Green bamboo staff :
An E-rank weapon that can slightly increase speed. Max considered it useless, but thankfully it was also considered a D-rank material since it was naturally formed, so it wasn't completely useless.
Common martial arts robe :
A good looking green robe, considered an E-rank armor, since Max didn't have any actual armor type equipment for now, it wasn't a bad loot.
The one that made Max flabbergasted was the ‘armament of earth martial tactics.’
It was actually a martial arts practice that can push you to the A-rank, although the success rate of reaching the A-rank using this practice alone is less than 0.3% it's still possible.
Max read the scroll slowly. This martial arts seem closer to cultivation than an actual martial arts.
You start by forging a weapon according to the methods mentioned.
From that point, you can only use that weapon to fight, and as you slowly become one with the weapon, and increase in your mastery according to the martial art practice.
And as you feed the weapon with the special Qi produced according to the practice, it will reach a certain point when the weapon will change and become something called an Earth armament.
As long as you stand on land, This Earth armament will allow you to control the surrounding 100 meters or so, like a domain of sort.
Max kept reading and slowly figured out something. The reason most of the disciples and even the master didn't hold weapons is because they probably destroyed them in order to regress in rank.
Moreover, he understood why did the dungeon terrain had to be a mountain; it was to prevent the master and his disciples from becoming abnormally Strong by forging new weapons, since earth armaments didn't function well on mountains, lakes, and oceans or such Terrain, so the master and his disciples couldn't cheat by forging A New Earth Armament on the spot to increase their combat power.
“Simulator, can I practice this martial art? “
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
Your talent for martial arts is below average, and your compatibility with this practice is low.
Conclusion: if the host practice this martial art, it will bring more harm to the host's body and the practice speed will be - 95%.]
“huh? - 95%? But why? Explain in detail. “
[Ding, reporting to The Host.
The augmentation process performed when the host was young made you more suitable to be a pet master but at the same time lowering your talent in other areas.]
“hmm, I see. It makes sense. “
Max didn't start bitching about the situation immediately like some child.
Plus, He was aware of how beneficial the augmentation was for him.
For example, other pet masters will receive a mental strain for keeping pets above their rank, but Max had Lucy at the E-rank while he was still a normal human.
Also other pet masters can't keep so many pets at the same time, for a normal E-rank pet master, one pet is the limit, maybe two if he was talented.
But look at Max, 11 pets at the E-rank and technically he is still far off from being a real pet master, since his spirituality attribute is rock bottom, and he doesn't have a meditation technique.
..
“well, at least it has some forging techniques, although it doesn't look advanced.
whatever, maybe I can find a buyer later. “
Max was just consoling himself, unless under specific circumstances, he will not sell such a hot potato that will bring him a lot of trouble.
“Sigh”.
Max wasn't an expert, but still he didn't think highly of the forging techniques contained in it since it was the martial artist Qi, blood, and sweat, the turn it into an earth armament, but still he didn't give up.
“Simulator, how can I improve my martial art talent”
[Ding, Host, please refer to the article.
-‘how to become a brainless monkey’
-‘Be a fighter with inactive brain cells who charge in front ‘
-‘leave your brain behind.’
And other articles, please search at your convenient.]
Max blinked twice!, It’s like something messed with his eyes, and he’s seeing things he shouldn’t.
But after blinking a couple of times, the text didn't change.
“huh ?”
Bft!! , Max wanted to laugh but kept it in.
‘ what's wrong with those titles?…..
well it can be guessed that the civilization behind the simulator really looked down on martial artists for some reason. ‘
Max didn't ask the simulator, any way he can read later, and try to find the reason, for no specific purpose but just out of curiosity.
“alright Lucy, you will be planting all the plants we got. Just do it casually for now. I’d teach you how to farm later.
And Keep the minerals somewhere safe. We'll be using them soon.
After you're done, bring Mok and come over.
I will be teaching him mathematics. As for you, I’d show you how to make rocket fuel. You can call it a stronger type of gunpowder. “
Lucy's mind went blank for a moment.
Earlier, because of the load of work Max gave her, she was planning to ask for a paid vacation.
But now she completely forgot about it. She could swear this was the happiest moment in her entire life.
‘master is best’.
‘master is so handsome, I am not lying!.’
‘no paid vacation needed. ‘
when he heard the first sentence Max smiled, but when he heard the second, his expression twitched.
But after the third he was just bewildered and confused, unable to handle Lucy's thought process.
“what the?”…
Author Note : this is last day chapter.
I'd add a one for today later
Wish you all the best.
