I'm Really Not Targeting the Mages Chapter 80

80 Craftsman (3)(3)

Li Wei left in a hurry.

Roger was the only one left in senluo farm.

In the next few days.

He had also heard rumors about the imminent invasion of the Boneyard from different channels.

There were all sorts of versions.

And the more it spread, the more mysterious it became.

Some claimed to have seen a Dragon with skeletal wings near charcoal hotel.

There were also hunters who came out of the forest and said that they had seen a skeleton giant as tall as a mountain.

For a time, there were many different opinions.

The hearts of the people in the manor, who had just settled down, began to panic again.

For such matters.

Roger could only curse in his heart.

Why was it so peaceful when he wasn’t around, but now that he was back, all sorts of monsters and snakes appeared?

He had also tried to go to dawn town to gather information.

But dawn town was under strict martial law.

He didn’t see Freya, nor did he find any other way.

Even Li Wei was nowhere to be seen, and no one knew where he had been transferred to.

At such a time.

Senluo farm’s position became awkward.

It was located Southwest of dawnlight town, not far from the border of Boneyard.

If the war really broke out ...

Then, senluo farm would definitely be the first to bear the brunt!

Roger wasn’t afraid of those skeletons, but he still had to be careful.

Therefore, he had been strengthening the defense of the farm for the past few days.

Fortunately, the name ” master Roger ” still had some face in the manor.

In this slightly chaotic moment, he still managed to hire a dozen people to help.

This way, the efficiency was much higher.

A week later.

Roger had successfully dug a deep trench on the west side of the farm.

There was even a temporary wall built on the trench.

It wasn’t tall, but it was sturdy enough.

These facilities would definitely not be able to stop the invasion of the skeleton army.

Roger was interested in their delaying effect.

As long as he had enough time to react, he didn’t think that his farm would become a breakthrough point for the skeleton army.

If that group of skeletons somehow annoyed him, he would be furious.

No matter how many necromancers there were in the Boneyard, they wouldn’t be enough for Roger to kill.

This was the confidence of an extraordinary.

At noon two days later.

On the east side of the farm.

The originally barren land was now surrounded by a high fence, leaving only a door for entry and exit.

There were more than a dozen Dummies inside the fence.

A string of wind chimes hung on each dummy.

When the wind blew, the wind chimes would make a series of sounds.

Roger, dressed in plain clothes, pushed the door open and walked in.

He was carrying a large cage and six black bags.

There were 12 lively rabbits in the big cage.

Roger put the cage in a corner and let them out.

The rabbits ran out in panic.

They were scurrying around in the fence.

Roger closed his eyes in silence and took out a stone from the black bag.

The wind chimes and the rabbit’s footsteps rang in his ears.

[specialty: sound detection]

In an instant.

It was as if a black-and-white map had appeared in his mind.

The fleeing black dots drew wool balls on the map.

Whoosh!

Roger threw a stone at him.

Unfortunately, he didn’t hear the sound of the target being hit.

The rabbits ran even faster.

They would occasionally bump into the dummies, causing the wind chimes to make even louder noises.

This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of hitting the target.

Roger wasn’t discouraged and continued to throw.

The hit rate of an empty-handed rock was very low, probably less than 30%.

He quickly emptied three bags of stones.

Roger took out the little finger slingshot from his pocket.

The next second.

He drew his bow and shot!

There was a pfft.

A rabbit that was running away happily was hit in the head and died on the spot.

Roger continued to work hard.

A few more stones were thrown out in succession.

This time, the hit rate had increased a lot.

Five out of eight times.

Roger opened his eyes and ran to collect the rabbits ‘bodies.

“Today’s hit rate has improved again.”

“But my hands are still a little rough.”

“I need to practice more.”

In the system of heroic concealment, hidden weapons were a very profound knowledge.

Roger was preparing for the skills and specialties in the future.

Although in terms of efficiency, it was far inferior to farming monsters and gaining specialties.However, the latter was more random. If you were lucky, you could farm the right one, but if you were unlucky, it would be hard to say.

Therefore, it was necessary for him to train himself.

Roger quickly picked up the bodies of the ten rabbits from the ground.

After taking it back to the kitchen to deal with it, tonight’s dinner would be settled. The extra meat could be made into smoked jerky.

The remaining two trembling little fellows were truly lucky.

They would become Roger’s medicinal rabbits tonight.

As for tomorrow.

A new batch of rabbits would be sent from dawn town tomorrow.

Under the high price.

Everyone was happy to give master Roger face.

Just as Roger was walking toward the kitchen with the rabbit, the long-lost sound of horse hooves came from afar.

The rider on the horse moved quickly, skillfully leading the horse to the stable, and then jogged over.

“Master Roger!”

Li Wei shouted loudly, his expression relaxed.

“It’s been a long time,”

Roger stopped and greeted him.

“Ah, it’s been quite a few days.”

Li Wei’s face showed a hint of apology.

I was assigned a mission at the last minute. I went to lie on the east side with Lord Howard from the Liege’s residence.

“Howard?” Roger said in surprise, ”

“What about the invasion of the skeleton soldiers?”

Li Wei said angrily, ”

“It’s purely imaginary,”

I don’t know where the rumor came from. There’s no such thing at all!

“Maybe it’s because the Lord isn’t here, everyone is very uneasy.”

When Li Wei saw the confusion on Roger’s face, he could not help but explain, ”

“Lord Howard is a weather sorcerer from the Liege’s residence. He is going to the East to observe the situation of the sela river’s tributary.He recorded some data, but I don’t really understand it. It seems to be the change in water level and the like.”

“He is a very good person.”

Roger nodded slightly and continued walking with B.rabbit.

Li Wei caught up and coughed.

“Master Roger, I really want to apologize to you.”

before, before, I really thought ...

Roger almost burst out laughing.

He walked into the kitchen and threw the rabbit on the anvil.

“There’s no need for that.”

Roger grabbed a pair of scissors, skillfully cut open the rabbit’s mouth, and then began to peel off the skin.

“By the way, did you come all the way here just to apologize to me?”

“Of course not.”

Li Wei glanced at the rabbit that was quickly stripped bare and unnaturally turned half of his head away.

“I’ve received news that his lordship is about to return!”

“And the first thing he did when he returned was to visit you, probably tomorrow. At night, there might be people who will come to send an official visiting card-this is also the trend brought about by Sir Alan. Before him, no one cared about this.”

At this point, he was a little excited.

“It’s such an honor to be visited by master LAN!”

Roger hummed in acknowledgment, unmoved by the favor or humiliation.

Then, he used a knife to quickly cut off the remaining meat and organs from the rabbit skin. He then threw the rabbit skin into the bucket of clean water beside him and washed it carefully.

After cleaning it, Roger hung the rabbit skin under the roof outside the kitchen.

There were seven or eight ropes with similar Rabbit Skins hanging on them.

There was less sunlight here, and the ventilation was good, which was suitable for the rabbit skin to dry.

Roger looked around.

The rabbit skin on two of the ropes had been washed multiple times.

He could start the saltpeter processing.

tanned rabbit skin is a substitute for ancient bamboo or hard stones. It’s a good material for signing contracts.

with enough Rabbit Skins, the ‘contract master’ part-time job can be put on my schedule.

Roger was focused on planning the next step when he suddenly noticed Li Wei’s constipated look from the corner of his eye.

“What’s wrong?”

He could not help but ask.

Li Wei scratched his head and asked in embarrassment, ”

“Master Roger, have you ever considered the matter of collecting tenant farmers?”

Roger was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, ”

“Did someone ask you to find out?”

Li Wei awkwardly nodded.

they’ve been friends for a long time. They all trust you, so they want to move to senluo farm.

The tenant farmers were the vassals of the farm owners.

Not only did they have to pay rent, but they also had to pay a large portion of the agricultural production.

But in this era.

Any ordinary person would not miss the opportunity to find a powerful farm owner as their backer.

“I’ll think about it.”

Roger didn’t give a definite answer. He grabbed another rabbit and started skinning it.

“By the way, do you know how to skin?”

Roger suddenly blurted out.

In the end, the young patrol couldn’t help master Roger.

He made an excuse that he had been away from home for many days and needed to report that he was safe. Then, he sneaked away as fast as he could.

This made Roger feel very regretful.

I didn’t expect such a good tool ... Oh no, it was such an ambitious youth, there were also times when he was sly and cunning.

He could only silently do it himself.

After a series of operations.

Roger felt a sense of accomplishment as he looked at the furs hanging under the eaves.

In the process of skinning.

He had also reached a new milestone.

[ you have successfully skinned 100 times. You have achieved a new milestone:Master of skinning

[ master of skinning: you are very familiar with the bodies of beasts, so you can always find the right place to start skinning them. ]

[ corresponding title: craftsman (finger flexibility +30) ]

“That’s a pretty good title,”

Roger hesitated for a moment and chose to exchange.

After finishing today’s portion of rabbit skin, Roger hurriedly had dinner and began the medicinal theory deduction for tonight.

After successfully sending away the two rabbits with the newly concocted medicine.

Roger washed up and went to bed in peace.

It was another well-organized day.

Compared to the days of fighting and killing, Roger preferred this kind of regular life.

The only flaw was ...

It had been a long time since a Johnny turtle had appeared on the farm.

Roger missed their strong and vigorous appearances.

“I’ll wait until next spring at the latest.”

“If he still doesn’t appear, I’ll have to consider going to the sela River to take a look.”

As he thought of this, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Roger got up early as usual.

Last night, there were indeed soldiers from the Liege’s residence who came to visit-Alan and Freya would be coming in the afternoon, so he needed to be prepared.

There was nothing he could do for dinner. At most, he would treat LAN to roasted rabbit meat.

It was mainly to get some fruit and tea.

It was only in paramount Manor. If it were anywhere else, there would be no such thing as visiting.

However, when Roger slowly walked out of the house, he was shocked by the scene in front of him!

On the surface of a tributary of the sela River.

There were fat shadows floating in the air!

He ran over to take a look.

They were actually ‘underground Warthog’s.

“There are so many warboars? Where did you get it from?”

He ran along the river bank to the sela River, and the scene in front of him was extremely strange.

Countless Warthog boars floated on the surface of the river, silently drifting.

A faint white mist was floating in the middle of the river.

As far as the eye could see, the entire sela River was covered with the corpses of Warthog boars!

At that moment.

Roger’s scalp went numb.
