Artificer Adventure Guide

"Did you feel anything?"

In the cabin, Carl, who was squatting with Hope on his back, suddenly stopped.

The special power given by the dragon pattern made him feel some special fluctuations sweeping over here just now.

"No, I didn't feel anything special. Did something happen?"

Seeing Carl's face was a little solemn, Hope twisted his body and jumped off Carl's shoulder.

"I'm not sure, but some special power just flew over from there."

Raising his hand with some effort, Carl pointed in a certain direction, frowning deeply.

"My sense of danger didn't respond. It doesn't look like a disaster that's about to happen. Could it be related to your exploration dragon pattern? I remember that this thing can even sense dragon crystals."

The biggest industry of the Exploration Dragon Pattern Family is to help search for various dragon crystals.

As the crystallization of the power of the three dragons of creation, dragon crystals will not be marked by detection magic.

But the holder of the Exploration Dragon Pattern can find dragon crystals through some special induction.

"I don't know. The fluctuation just now feels different from the Eberron Dragon Crystal that the fluorescent mushrooms precipitate."

Rubbing the area between his eyebrows, Carl tried to eliminate the influence of fatigue.

"Maybe it's Khyber Dragon Crystal. After all, this is a dungeon, and the presence of Khyber Dragon Crystal is normal."

Shrugging his shoulders, Hope put his hands on his hips, with a tone of disapproval.

"But I always feel that there is malice mixed in that fluctuation. Let's go there to explore after we reach level 3. I hope it's not a big trouble. If it's really something dangerous, we have to consider moving."

Wipe the sweat from his forehead, Carl walked to the recliner and sat down.

"Don't sit down directly after exercising just now! Stand up straight first, and wait until your heartbeat slows down before sitting down!"

Pulling Carl's collar and pulling him up, Hope ignored Carl's whining and let him continue to stand.

Standing helplessly aside, Carl watched Hope wipe the sweat stains that he had just stained on the recliner, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly twice.

"Hmm~, let's boil some hot water tonight to take a bath? It can relieve fatigue and cleanse the body. Although it has rained several times recently, we still need to take a bath."

Looking down at the sweat on himself and Hope, Carl supported himself and suggested weakly.

Although there is no container suitable for boiling water, Carl can carve a few more stones with fire runes and then throw them into a basin full of water.

In this way, the two can still get a basin of hot water.

The basin for soaking giant lizard skin can be used for this purpose.

When Hope heard that she could take a bath, her eyes showed an expectant look.

Although she had been living a life of hunger and fullness when she was in Zoram, she still paid attention to personal hygiene.

But during this time in the dungeon, she had not taken a proper bath.

"What are you waiting for? Do you need my help?"

"Well, can you help me carve some fire runes? The kind I drew on the stone slab before."

"Of course!"

Take out the flint dagger he had polished before, and sit directly next to the stone slab, copying and carving the runes on it.

Carl emptied the last batch of lizard skins soaked in the wooden basin, and poured the ash and liquid out together.

Then, Carl washed the wooden basin with rainwater and placed it outside, waiting for it to be filled with rainwater.

After Hope had carved two samples, Carl tried to inject spirituality into them, but found that only one could be used normally.

After teaching Hope some precautions, Carl took the wooden basin outside while the stone was not fully heated.

In just a few minutes, there was already half a basin of water in the wooden basin.

'This rainfall is a bit too exaggerated. Where did all the rainwater go in the end? If this is a phased phenomenon, this underground city should have been flooded long ago! ’

Analyzing the exaggerated rainfall phenomenon in his mind, Carl took the stone and threw it into the wooden basin.

He did not throw the stone slab used for eating into it. Although high temperature can indeed sterilize, it is better not to use it interchangeably for some things.

After a while, Hope had carved a few more rune stones. According to her learning progress, Carl thought that she might be able to strive for the expertise of a rune carver in the future.

He injected spirituality into the newly carved rune stones again, and this time there were three successful ones.

Throwing these rune stones into the wooden basin, Carl walked to the corner of the room with the wooden basin and set up a curtain around it with the clothes drying rack and the giant lizard skins.

"The water temperature is gradually rising, Hope, you take a shower first."

After testing the water temperature with his fingers, Carl left the alchemy pot next to the wooden basin and walked out of the temporary bathroom.

"Then I won't be polite!"

Stepping into the temporary bathroom, Hope quickly took off her clothes and put them on the rack, and took a bath happily.

The monitor lizard skin, which had been soaked in the wood ash solution for a long time, was somewhat translucent because it had not been completely dried.

This discovery made Carl somewhat uneasy.

But he finally said nothing and just watched quietly.

After all, he would have to take a shower later...

I don't know how long it had passed, Hope poked his head out from behind the curtain.

"Carl, can you bring those dried monitor lizard skins over? My clothes are soaked and need to be washed."

At this time, Carl remembered that their clothes were completely wet with sweat. They had no change of clothes and could only use those monitor lizard skins that were still drying as bath towels.

"Wait a minute, I'll go and take a look."

The fingers touched the leather, and the dry leather was enough to make clothes.

But because of the loss of moisture, the softness of the leather was not as soft as before.

"Try wrapping it around your body. It's not as soft as you thought at first."

He took a larger one and handed it to Hope. Carl stood outside the curtain and waited for Hope.

"It's a little problematic, but it's not bad."

After a while, Hope, who used leather as a bath towel, came out from behind the curtain.

She was now like wearing a tight leather dress.

The red skin that had been faintly shiny after being fully washed had a feeling of half-covering the face under the cover of the leather bath towel.

Hope's red tail was shaking restlessly behind her. Obviously, its owner was not as calm as he seemed.

"Then I'll go in and wash too? Can you help me wash my clothes together? We'll make spare clothes together later."

Saying so, Carl also took off his clothes and put them on the rack.

The next second, these clothes were taken away by Hope outside the curtain and washed.

'Why do I always feel that our relationship is developing in the direction of an old couple? '

Shaking his head and sighing, Carl was about to bend over to scoop the water in the basin, but found that there was nothing else in the basin except a few stones?

"Where's the water?!"

That day, Carl deeply understood a truth:

Never queue up behind a girl to take a shower when there is limited hot water, because you don't know if the other party will leave hot water for you.
