Chapter 903 You Are Becoming More and More Unhuman
"Mining? At this time?"
Lu Li was also puzzled, mainly because the timing was too coincidental.
In addition, Chuchu is not a supporter like Xia Ren. As a supporter, Chuchu's personality is still very strong. With Chuchu's self-esteem, it is impossible for her to come to me for help for normal tasks.
Moreover, generally speaking, mining supporters are the bulk of the space's income, so the space is relatively cautious when it comes to deployment, and will not deliberately put supporters in danger.
What happened last time in the world of the Undead King can only be described as an accident caused by a few supporters seeking their own deaths. Generally speaking, if the supporters just mine peacefully, nothing will happen.
"So I can't help you finish the next two pieces of equipment. What's worse is that the world the space called me to go to this time is an advanced native world. Judging from the time coincidence rate, I'm afraid it will take me a long time. I can't even deliver the goods within the space scale time range set in the contract."
Chuchu's voice was filled with annoyance, mainly because she knew that mining in the advanced native world was an extremely dangerous thing, and normally it would not be the turn of a backup person of her level.
"Let's not talk about the contract for now. I can cancel it, but since you are in such a hurry to contact me, is it because the mining task is troublesome?"
Lu Li said that he didn't care about the red tape. He and Chu Chu signed the equipment contract just because it was a common practice in the space. In fact, they were so familiar with each other that he didn't think Chu Chu would deliberately delay the delivery or simply not deliver the goods.
"It's very troublesome. According to the information revealed to me in advance by the space, it is a native world within the numbering scale of 5. The preliminary estimate is that it must be above the eighth level."
Chuchu said, "Damn it, this girl is just a fourth-level supporter!"
She was telling the truth, because she was only at the fourth level in terms of both comprehensive attributes and mark level, but her professional skills in life had reached a very high level.
"That's weird. Why is the space arranged like this? If it were a high-energy world with an extremely high foundation, you would probably be crushed to death, right?"
Lu Li was very puzzled when he spoke, mainly because the world of Gourmet Hunter was an example. The gravity of the earth after being magnified had increased by who knows how many times, and not everyone could live freely on it.
And if the starting energy level is around 60 or 70, in simple terms, explorers below this level will not be able to meet the basic survival conditions.
For example, excessive gravity, extreme cold or high temperature, and all these factors add up. If you don’t have certain basic attributes to support you, you will die if you go over there, and you don’t even need to face monsters.
"Don't you know? The space has a special rule for mining with supporters. When recruiting, it does not care about the supporter's level. For important mining projects, supporters who have reached the standard of professional expertise will be given priority. If the environment at the target location is harsh, the space will cast a special barrier for the supporter to protect the supporter from environmental damage."
Chuchu explained, but her tone was still heavy, "But I think this rule is just something that a moron thought up... Oh, it may be a bit disrespectful to say this, but it is still a big problem, because the backup can have basic living conditions in the target world, but it does not mean that they will not be affected by attacks from the natives. And according to my understanding, the natives in this high-level world are very dangerous."
"Chu Chu, I really want to help you, but the problem is, the timing is really unfortunate. I've also been called up for the competition I mentioned last time, and it will start in 24 hours."
Lu Li said in distress. After listening to Chu Chu's explanation, he also knew that the other party was in a bad situation.
If possible, he really wanted to personally escort Chu Chu to mine. At that time, he could also follow Xia Ren's example and let Chu Chu dig more good rare materials to make equipment for himself.
But the problem is, he happened to have accepted Manjushage's invitation before, and now he has to represent the End Space to conquer the native world. The space does not have the option to change the task after it is set for you.
"Gan!"
Chu Chu cursed ungracefully, "Something bad has happened. It's over, it's over, it's over..."
She said "it" many times in a row, and it was obvious that she was really panicked.
"what happened?"
Lu Li was puzzled. He thought to himself that with Chu Chu's ability as a well-known master of making beds, if all else failed, she should be able to just hire a bodyguard, right?
"I finally understand. I was wondering why this mission was so sudden and mysterious. They didn't reveal any information about the target world, only the number of the original world."
Chuchu sat in the store with a sad face and said, "I told you that nothing good would come of being associated with you. What did that Manjushage tell you about the competition?"
"Actually, Xisun told me the details. After I agreed, she only told me that each space would select a team or individual to participate in the competition. People from the nine spaces would enter different native worlds to see which team would complete the strategy for the world they descended into first. In the end, they would be comprehensively scored based on the strategy speed and the difficulty of the world."
Lu Li explained, "I felt that the rules sounded simple enough, so I didn't ask any further questions."
"It's actually this kind of competition... I guess you've got me into trouble..."
Chuchu complained, "Maybe she doesn't think it's necessary to tell you this, but as far as I know, this type of event is a competition in multiple fields, and the mining ability of the supporters may also be included. It should be to see whose supporters are better at mining..."
Lu Li was a little surprised when he heard this, "You want to compete even on this?"
He felt that the space was so boring. Did mining require a duel?
"What do you mean? Do you look down on us supporters? Mining technology is also very important, isn't it? It determines the support output capacity of a space. Without supporters like us to carry out production, how can the space operate?"
Chuchu said unhappily.
"That's not what I meant. I'm just thinking about how to solve the problem now."
Lu Li changed the subject.
"Forget it, come down first, and I'll give you the equipment I've prepared."
Chu Chu said that her own future was uncertain, so she had to debug the equipment that Lu Li could use first.
Not long after, Lu Li arrived at Chu Chu's store and saw the new coat that Chu Chu had made for him. This time it was the classic style that he used to wear.
It’s not that Aizen didn’t design one for him, but Lu Li said that he would become dark after he became a demon anyway, so white clothes would not be suitable and would be easy to get dirty.

Review: Whose nightmare will this be?
Lu Li was very satisfied with the coat, and put it on on the spot under Chu Chu's strange gaze. His temperament suddenly changed, becoming more "approachable".
To be honest, Chuchu never thought that she would make this kind of equipment one day. In her opinion, when it comes to outerwear, shouldn’t the first priority be appearance?
Why would anyone want to look less attractive than more attractive after putting on a coat?
However, she still made the equipment according to Lu Li's requirements, and while ensuring the appearance of the clothes was beautiful, she tried her best to enhance Lu Li's charm and temperament.
As a blacksmith, satisfying the customization needs of customers is secondary. The main reason is that Chu Chu feels that Lu Li’s charm... is still too high.
"Amazing, a masterpiece among masterpieces, it perfectly meets my needs!"
Lu Li praised in amazement. Reducing 5 points of charm means a 50% increase in damage for the Evil God Mask. "What's the progress of the other two pieces of equipment?"
"Don't even think about it. It's completely unfinished. You can't even wear it."
Chu Chu said, "And I have to admit that there were some problems in meeting your needs this time. The materials for those two pieces of equipment are a bit difficult to get. I used several substitutes, but the results were not satisfactory. I can only say that your needs are still too tricky."
Just looking at Lu Li's coat, we can tell that in Chu Chu's opinion, Lu Li's demand for customization means that he has completely given up on being a human being. He wants his charm attributes to sing loudly all the way and reach the lower limit of constantly refreshing the history of the End Explorers.
This kind of strange request is very rare, so the materials Lu Li needs cannot be found on the market at all. Chu Chu searched for the materials for this coat for a long time and bought it from an explorer who had just come out of a strange world.
To be honest, using this kind of material to create equipment is definitely not a pleasant experience. Chu Chu felt a little chilly just thinking back to when she was processing the materials, her hair was still moving, and the creepy whispers kept ringing in her ears.
On the contrary, after Lu Li put on this creepy clothes, he looked refreshed, as if he was wrapped in warm fabric and felt very comfortable.
Lu Li's inner armor and pendant are also developing in a similar direction, so Chu Chu currently cannot find suitable minerals and materials to meet Lu Li's requirements. She is a bit obsessive-compulsive when it comes to making equipment and won't stop until it's perfect.
So the progress was stuck here. She originally wanted to ask someone to ask if there were such materials on trading platforms in other spaces, but she was told to go mining.
"Tsk, one piece of clothing is already like this, if I get two more, it will be like heaven."
Lu Li sighed, and at the same time felt regretful that he could not wear the other two pieces of equipment.
Chu Chu looked at Lu Li speechlessly, "You are becoming more and more inhuman..."
"What are you talking about? Even children know not to judge people by appearance. No matter how low my charm is, as long as I have an upright and bright heart, I am a kind human being."
Lu Li grinned and said, "By the way, Chuchu, what is the number of the native world you are going to?"
After the previous communication, he roughly understood that the space might select both explorers and supporters to participate in the competition, but the supporters seemed to have no choice, which was a gap in status.
So Chuchu would only be notified to go mining, and Lu Li estimated that when the time came, he would have a certain amount of choice, for example, he could choose where to go among the nine native worlds.
If he knew Chu Chu's destination in advance and could find the same native world, he would be able to land in the same world as her.
Seeing Lu Li talking about this, Chu Chu stopped teasing Lu Li's charm and answered seriously: "Native World No. 60302."
"Well, I'll remember that. If I ever see this world, I'll try my best to get it."
Lu Li nodded and said, "It's just that the situation in the original world is unknown. It's better for you to keep a low profile until I find you."
"I'm not a nobody. I've been to the mission world to mine many times. I know how to survive."
As Chu Chu spoke, she took out a book with four big characters "The Book of Survival" written on the gold-embossed cover.
Lu Li was a little curious. He felt that the book looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that when he just entered the space, an explorer knelt down in front of him and begged for mercy. It was said that that seemed to be the teaching of the Book of Survival.
Seeing Lu Li's strange look, Chu Chu felt a little embarrassed, "What's that look? This is a bestseller in the space, right? Even many explorers have created many new worlds with this."
"No, I'm just a little curious."
Lu Li thought it was amazing that such a book could become a bestseller. It was also the first time he knew that books could be published in space.
Chu Chu handed the book to Lu Li, "Take a look at it, you will find that what is written above makes a lot of sense, and even gives you contingency plans for dealing with emergencies at all levels and in all types of worlds."
Although Lu Li was not interested in how to survive, he was indeed a little curious about this strange book, so he took it and flipped through it. There was a price tag on the book, 100 End Coins per copy, which was very cheap.
But considering that it is a bestseller in the space mall, and who knows how many explorers have bought it, Lu Li was surprised to find that he could actually make money in the space by writing books.
In the author column, I don’t know whether it is a pen name or a nickname. The author’s name is Kaka. The beginning of the article also records her life resume. She is actually a magical person who once fell into the position of a supporter and was promoted back.
