Chapter 30 The Corpse Eater
"Now, do you understand what problems our guild has? No, in other words, do you know what our guild still lacks?"
Arrow put his hands behind his back and slowly walked around the body, looking up at Coco and Brad over there.
The two members looked at each other, and after a moment, Coco asked cautiously: "Is there no shortage of profiteer presidents?"
"Haha, that's right! We lack everything except a dedicated guild leader!"
Airl pulled the brim of his hat and tried his best to keep smiling——
"Although we had a near-miss on this expedition and made a lot of money, generally speaking, we were able to do so safely. Luck played a big part. At the same time, we paid a lot of money."
The price is that the two of them had to temporarily close the business for two or three days to recuperate and recover their magic power. The time of closure proves from the side that our guild still lacks manpower. At the same time, we also lack a response policy that can cope with this situation."
"Brad, as a warrior, your armor was easily torn apart by monsters and your shield was destroyed. And then you were seriously injured. You had to use two bottles of healing aerosol to barely recover to your current condition. No, no, no.
, I’m not saying it’s your fault, I’m just pointing out the current problem of our guild.”
"The same goes for Coco. Although necromancers are very rare, you are making steady progress. But it is undeniable that your magic power is indeed a bit scarce. If you crush two undead soldiers, you will immediately lose your ability to fight.
"
Ai Luo stood in the direction of the monster's head, thought for a while and said: "Therefore, our guild's next goal is very clear. I have set three goals for our guild."
"First, if there is another expedition into the mine next time, we must maintain the good condition of all current members and add another combat member, so that we can take over the task of exploring the mine."
"Of course, new guild members are not so easy to recruit, so we have two other options."
"Second point, we need to improve the protective capabilities of our warriors. The slime armor may not be enough. I think the shield warrior can resist the attacks of those monster claws, so I will find a way to help you next
Build a set of iron armor and an iron shield. And Brad, what I need you to do is to be able to move quickly after bearing more weight to protect our members in the rear."
Brad listened extremely carefully. After Arrow finished speaking, the clumsy guy started mumbling to himself with his fingers. After a while, he turned around and ran to the teaching area over there to take out paper and pen.
I rubbed my head and wanted to record these contents.
Of course, since he had not yet learned a few words, it was really difficult for him to write smoothly, so Buffy flew out at the right time and helped him write it completely using graphics and crooked words.
"Last point, regarding the magic power of our magician, we need to have a method that allows you to recover magic power faster or increase the upper limit of magic power. Hmm... Napa, you are more familiar with magic power than me.
How can we ensure the longevity of Coco’s combat effectiveness?”
The cat lying on the hat yawned, raised his paws and rubbed his eyes, and said casually: "Under normal circumstances, the upper limit of magic power and magic power recovery will increase with age and practice. Of course, on weekdays,
Learning how to accumulate magic power is also an important course. I believe there must be many courses in this area in your Old Tengshu Academy."
Very good, now do we need to spend hundreds of gold coins to send Coco to the capital to study for three to five years, and then come to work in the guild?
Napa naturally understood what the half-smiling expression on the corner of Airo's mouth meant, and continued -
"As for other things, I heard that eating some amazing food can also increase your magic power limit and battery life."
Ai Luo clapped his hands: "Now that I think of it, I remember it. No wonder so many magic students are sent to the hospital every year due to food poisoning. Alas, it's a pity that I have never heard of any chef becoming a top magician.
"
Napa: "Since you know everything, I won't interrupt."
Arrow nodded, took the cat off his head, put it in the air regardless of its protests, and picked up a pen and a piece of paper from the teaching area: "Now I want to tell you all the characteristics of this monster.
Record it, this is the second picture in our monster illustration. While I'm recording it, Brad, go get a knife and help me cut this monster. But not the drastic one, I want the continuous one.
The kind of cutting where every muscle layer is carefully cut away.”
Brad didn't ask any more questions, answered and went to get the knife. Coco looked at the monster with a look of disgust on his face: "Is this what we have for lunch? Brother President, they will eat us,
But that doesn’t mean we have to eat it back... Brother President, your way of revenge is too direct."
"What are you thinking about? Please take a closer look during the autopsy! Your undead soldiers are the most flexible in terms of our current combat effectiveness. You have to take a closer look at the weaknesses of the 'corpse eaters'!"
Coco tilted her head: "Corpse eater?"
Ai Luo proudly turned his pen: "The name I just chose is good, isn't it?"
Without further ado, Brad came over with a set of knives and began to dissect the corpse of the corpse eater. He did it very carefully and tried his best to maintain his caution, but if he encountered something that would really require too much
If you operate the parfait too carefully, it will cause trouble.
Ai Luo was directing all the cuts while observing the anatomical details and recording them on paper.

Monster: Corpse Eater
Size: The general body length is about two meters, and the arms are spread out to about two meters. However, giant corpse eaters with a length and width of five meters have been seen, and the specific size of it has not yet been confirmed.
Food habits: scavenger, preferring meat. It feeds on bloody bugs on a daily basis and is more sensitive to the smell of bloody bugs, but its greed for other fresh meats does not rule out. It will be very aggressive in order to eat meat.
Environment: Dark area, but dry and slightly warmer.
Appearance: Powerful double claws, no head, no lower body. The spine-like "tail" extending from the abdomen forms a triangular fulcrum with the claws. The surface is not covered by skin, and the bursting muscles are clearly layered, which is very visually impactful.
, there is a huge mouth at the neck, and on the huge mouth are two light-emitting organs (note: these are not visual organs, it is speculated that this monster has no vision).
Habits: Use the light of the light-emitting organ to lure the prey close, and then tear the prey into pieces with its powerful claws. However, it will also adopt a simple method of luring the enemy, that is, one will attract attention in front of the prey, and the other will take the opportunity to sneak attack. The hunting mode is similar to that of a demon wolf.
Group. There are two lifestyles: solitary and gregarious. The stronger individuals prefer to live alone (speculation).
Strength: Not afraid of flames at all. Facing a full-force attack from a flame magician will cause pain, but no harm. Therefore, fire-based attacks are not recommended at all. The skin is very hard and can resist a person purely by relying on the strength of the muscles.
A mature warrior's giant ax can chop with all his strength, and he is not afraid of damage from blunt force blows.
Weakness: Basically, there is no particularly obvious weakness. If you have to fight with it, you can also use the normal way to use strength suppression to kill it. However, judging from actual combat experience and the degree of anatomy, the texture of its muscles is separated.
In the shape of strips, when gathered together, they can resist slashing and blowing damage over a wide range, but their defense against puncture wounds seems to be very weak. If possible, try to use piercing weapons.
In addition, according to the dissection, its spine-like tail has no strength and is only used as a support point to support the body. Its claws seem to be unable to turn to deal with the enemy behind it. Therefore, it is moved behind it to destroy its spine and tail, allowing it to
Losing balance may be a way to fight.
How to deal with it: Since you have no vision and only rely on hearing and smell to detect enemies, it is recommended to cover up the smell, reduce the sound, use piercing weapons, and attack from behind to destroy the balance.
Trophy: The heart is made of pure gold. The reason for the monster's body structure is not yet known. It is also unknown whether every corpse eater has such a structure.
Evaluation of monster strength: As a single entity, there is a death threat. In groups, there is a high death threat. When encountering a strong person living alone, there is a very high death threat.

When writing about the spoils of war, Ai Luo was a little hesitant and confused.
After finishing writing, he looked at this comment again. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and crossed out this comment completely.
On the one hand, I wrote this monster illustration to make money. On the other hand, I also hope that if other adventurers enter the mine in the future, they can improve their chances of survival. But with this trophy, it may actually cause other adventurers to rashly advance and fight.
Die.
After thinking over and over again, Ai Luo once again confirmed that he was correct in deleting the loot.
Then, he took another piece of paper and drew the corpse eater before it was dismantled. Success! In this way, he completed a monster illustrated book.
Putting down the pen and paper, Ai Luo looked at the corpse eater in front of him who had finished dissecting it.
There are not many internal organs in this monster's body, which are basically thick bones and strips of muscles. It can be said that except for the gold heart that has been hollowed out, only the esophagus and excretion port are left. It seems that this head
It seems that the monster has no physiological needs other than eating.
He picked up a few muscle fibers and pulled them slightly. Well, they were quite strong.
"Go to the kitchen and get a fire."
Coco's eyes became weird and scared again, and she stared at her president again: "Brother, president? Are you hungry after all? If you really want to eat skewers, we can go to the Unicorn Bar!
"
Arrow rolled his eyes at her, and when Brad got a torch, he put those muscle textures as thick as a child's little finger on the fire to grill.
After burning for about five minutes, he pulled down the muscle texture to see for himself.
Very good. Although these muscles are a little black, there are no signs of being burned. Pull them again and they are still as strong as before.
After confirming the answer he needed, Airl ordered to collect all the undamaged muscle textures and put them aside. Then he looked through the remaining skeleton of the corpse eater and picked out two index finger claws and some that looked neat and sharp.
The teeth, as for the remaining bones and damaged muscle texture, can only be picked up and thrown into the trash can. When they rot one day, they can be sold to farmers as fertilizer.
Coco and Brad couldn't understand the operation of their president at all. But Napa understood it very clearly. It yawned and flew up again: "Close the door when you go out. Since you don't accept the work now, then I will
An undisturbed sleep. So sleepy."
Chapter completed!
