In fact, the construction of the Gnomish Cloaking Device was very simple . As long as the engraving had been done correctly and nothing went wrong in assembly, all that it cost was a bit of time .
Once the first part was successfully made, the second part would naturally follow .
In the end Lu Li produced more than 30 items and failed seven times . Two of those times, the item exploded, but fortunately, it wasn't enough to kill him .
He quickly reached level 190 and started making the Self-Destructing Sheep .
The Self-Destructing Sheep was a more complex item . In the words the NPC Engineers, it was one of the mysteries of Engineering .
The main materials required were Wool Cloth, High Explosives, Lesser Moonstone, Bronze Frames and High-speed Bronze Gears, but the prices of these materials were much cheaper than those of the Gnomish Cloaking Device . The cost of making one Gnomish Cloaking Device could easily cover five Self-Destructing Sheep .
Lu Li had valuable experience in making explosives from his time crafting Ivy's Bombs . The Warehouse was still stocked with those .
First of all, Lu Li ground the Lesser Moonstone into a powder .
Lesser Moonstone was widely used in Engineering blueprints because it had good electrical conductivity .
After this came the construction of the bronze frame components . The Hammer Of Cresso played a major role in this matter .
While he was cutting the Bronze, Lu Li's knife broke .
Bronze was not the same as Mithril – Mithril was a softer material and this so-called Superior cutter that he had purchased from the System store couldn't take the strain .
It seemed like it would be necessary to find himself a better knife .
Lu Li sighed and tried to recall the strategy for obtaining this Engineering tool . It was difficult, but he remembered a certain quest that had a chance of dropping Engineering equipment or blueprints .
The task wasn't difficult to complete, but he needed to wait until he was between level 45 and 50 .
After pulling out his spare knife, Lu Li continued the engineering process .
Now, he had to assemble the frame, wrap it with Wool Cloth and mount the legs . The original cold, metal skeleton was beginning to look more like a sheep, but Lu Li had not sewn it together because there weren't any explosives inside it yet .
It was called Self-Destructing Sheep, but the actual animal was irrelevant . The most important part was that it could blow up .
The empty abdominal cavity was where the explosive device would be placed . Lu Li collected some unused items lying around and cleared out his work table before starting the next step .
The next step in the process was the construction of the explosive . Lu Li dared not to do this carelessly .
The explosives were placed onto a weighing pan where the desired components were accurately measured and put into individual pellets . A complete explosive device soon formed in Lu Li's hand, which he carefully picked up and put into the belly of the sheep .
The System then prompted him that he had successfully created the Self-Destructing Sheep .
He had spent exactly 20 minutes on creating one sheep, which was much longer than he had expected .
This was a big waste of time . No wonder everyone abandoned Engineering and practiced one of the other lucrative Trading Skills .
However, no matter how hard it was, he had to keep going . He had almost reached Advanced level 200 and intended to complete his training by the end of the day . After that, he was going to ask his guild to help him find more blueprints .
Lu Li also wanted to find an NPC to give the Ivy's Bomb so that they could strive to research an even more-advanced explosive .
Two thousand fire damage was very high, but it obviously wasn't enough for the monsters that now had 5000-6000 HP . If you could research into higher-level bombs that dealt 10,000 damage, you could rapidly increase your levelling speed .
One by one, Lu Li created an army of Self-Destructing Sheep . Once his backpack was full, he would transfer them to the warehouse . He had opened a personal warehouse, so he didn't need to go to the bank to access one .
He was so focused that he had lost track of time . When the System prompted Lu Li that the day was almost ending, his Engineering level had increased to 203 .
There was no more experience to gain from producing Self-Destructing Sheep .
Lu Li packed up the workshop and asked Square Root 3 how the farming had gone today .
Ruling Sword's players had received quite a bit, not only in terms of EXP, but also in the prize items rewarded . Everyone had been quite fortunate .
The basic feature of a Hawkstrider was its slender nick and wide beak . They also had two slender legs that were good for running, so they were often used as land mounts .
The Blood Elves were the ones that used Hawkstriders for this purpose .
Any other race would just need to keep farming reputation and they would eventually receive one . However, the Alliance players had no choice but just to keep dreaming about owning one .
It was no surprise then that a place that produced Hawkstriders would cause a great commotion .
Even the Trade Skill players were attracted to it . Square Root 3 had organized each group of combatants to also have a Trade Skill player . Not only did this allow them to gain some EXP, but they would also receive another turntable slot .
As for the formulas, there had also been a great harvest of those .
There were several Engineering blueprints that Lu Li could use which required level of 205 . The materials needed weren't hard to find either .
The guild player who had drawn this Engineering blueprint first thought he had been unlucky as it was better to receive an exquisite item . He didn't expect Lu Li to find him and ask to pay guild points for his blueprint, so he was quite excited when that happened .
This was not only because Lu Li's offer was quite high, but also because he was a big fan and was happy to interact with him .
Additionally, but unsurprisingly, Drizzle Court had brought on Peerless City to this event .
Lu Li was a little uncomfortable at this . He knew that Peerless City wasn't his enemy, but it was unusual to help his rival guilds become stronger like this . However, Square Root 3 thought that it was perfectly fine .
