Using the slime sword to finish them off, Annie came to understand a fact.
Orcs... they're all a bunch of unclean bastards.
Take the underwear you've worn to "Rin" to wash!
If it's left in a corner, it'll probably have already gone bad and the smell will have dissipated.
Of course, An Yi didn't put it to her nose to smell it; she just relied on the hero's sense of smell to judge the scent.
I sorted the clothes into clean and dirty ones and folded them neatly. I also cleaned up the wood shavings on the bed, picked up Aria (柒¤♀_∮·∞陆零qi耙肿)(ZhUaンQUn:), shook the blanket with the slime sword, and finally put her on the bed and covered her up.
As for taking a bath, that's not something An Yi needs to deal with.
As Annie walked along the road, she suddenly thought that she could have Noel supervise Arya, so she headed to the kitchen again.
Actually, doing this makes me seem like I'm meddling, but...
Now that we have free time, why can't we meddle in other people's business?
Many people's impression of An Yi is that he is always engrossed in the important matter of defeating the demons.
In fact, he knows when to rest properly and when he needs to do something important, he is fully committed.
If you have to be on edge even when you're resting, then you're just wasting your energy.
As soon as they arrived at the kitchen door, they saw a large goblin king's arm lying across the aisle.
Aside from the group of support heroes, Noel, Ruby, and Milu were all examining the arm.
Illegal loli, legal loli, a 15-year-old loli in the traditional sense, a rare sight of three loli together.
"Oh! Sword Hero!!" Noel ran over excitedly when she saw An Yi. "Have you had breakfast? Have you had dessert? Are you getting ready for lunch?"
Could it be that they came specifically to see me?!
Annie: "The last one."
"Yahaha—!!" Noel exclaimed excitedly, "What are your orders, Sword Hero?! Noel will do anything, even risk her life to complete them!"
“I just went to see Arya, she’s much better now,” Annie said.
"Really?! I went to see her but she completely ignored me..." Noel was surprised at first, then lowered her head in frustration.
She also learned about Arya's family.
To be honest, she didn't know how to comfort Arya.
Her family members are all alive and healthy, and she did not experience anything particularly tragic during her childhood.
Although it sounds heartless, she really couldn't empathize with this kind of situation.
Aside from offering my condolences, I don't know what else to say.
“She’s ignoring you because she’s mourning her loved ones,” Annie explained.
"Yeah, I also bothered her... I feel really bad about it." Noel put her hands behind her back, lowered her head, and looked guilty.
"You can tell her yourself later."
There's one more thing I need to ask you about Arya.
"what's up?"
An Yi: "Make sure she tidies up her room properly, takes a shower, and washes her clothes."
Noel: "...? What did the Sword Hero do in her room?"
An Yi: "I helped her tidy up a bit."
...I hate overly smart kids.
After giving the instructions, An Yi looked at the arm on the ground: "Um, are you planning to use it for cooking?"
"That would be such a waste!"
The answer came not from Noel, but from Ruby.
“Mr. Carl, this is excellent material!” Ruby squatted down and patted the severed arm twice.
"To make dolls?" Annie asked.
“Yes!” Ruby nodded seriously.
Ruby usually appears timid and socially awkward, but she becomes enthusiastic when it comes to dolls.
Tera An-i looked thoughtfully at the severed arm on the ground.
He has always used the things provided by the system, and at most he has collected some hidden weapons.
Even when he collected the materials, he only used them to make equipment for the dwarves; he never used them to make anything himself.
Ruby said that goblin arms could be used to make dolls, which is quite interesting.
"Our strength attribute isn't enough, so we can't even cut the skin on this hand, so I was thinking..."
"If we use this skin as the outer shell material for the doll, wouldn't we be able to get a doll with very high toughness?!" Ruby said excitedly.
“Good idea.” Annie nodded.
Even without enhancement, Zero Goblin King's Resilience can reach 30 points.
This is the arm of a mutated Goblin King Servant. If An Yi remembers correctly, it has at least 33 points of resilience.
"The doll inherits a certain proportion of your attributes. If the doll is made from goblin hide, will the hide's toughness decrease?" Annie asked.
"I don't know, I haven't done it yet," Ruby confessed.
“You guys said you can’t cut the skin, so let me help,” Annie said.
"Okay!" Ruby was worried about being too embarrassed to ask other people!
Then, An Yi turned her gaze to Miluko.
Although he didn't speak, his eyes seemed to say, "What are you doing here again?"
Milu looked at Ruby.
Ruby noticed the other person's gaze and then explained to Annie, "It was just a sudden thought that I could use goblin skin to make dolls."
I asked Miss Zinza to bring me this hand, because Miss Zinza is very fast!
An Yi: "..."
Why don't you take it yourself...?
It's not like you can't carry it, so don't take it for granted that you can order people around.
Annie knew that Ruby was currently developing "Number Two".
She was thinking about how to make a combat-specific doll.
First of all, if we're going to fight, then using weapons is perfectly normal, right?
So they attached a retractable short sword to the doll's hand, which was usually hidden in its arm and extended from its palm during battle.
But when I tried to hunt down the lowest-level goblins, I encountered a problem. ″√san〕【∝]
That is, the knife becomes dull easily when it hits a goblin, and after a few cuts, a nick will appear quickly.
The puppet has no combat logic; it can only slash. Even if you make it aim at a vital point, it can't react as quickly as a human.
You should know that goblins can move too.
The puppet does not have the corresponding reaction speed, so it is easy for the opponent to dodge or block, or even attack its hard bones.
Therefore, the sharp short sword was replaced by a blunt weapon—the hammer.
I tried hunting down the lowest-level goblins again, and this time it was much more effective. One hit of the hammer was enough to kill or seriously injure them, and there was no such thing as a sharp or dull hammer.
But after testing, another problem was discovered...
The doll is too fragile.
Even when encountering ordinary goblins, they are easily damaged under the opponent's siege, making them extremely useless in actual combat.
Even if the level increases and the quality of the doll improves, Ruby's own attributes do not increase, so the doll's performance will not change much.
But just as An Yi said before, for a hero like Ruby who doesn't need to step onto the battlefield at all, adding points for a puppet is a complete waste of attributes.
Furthermore, she discovered while making the dolls that the better the dolls were, the more magic power they required, so adding points to the magic power attribute was not a problem.
Ruby struggled with this decision for a long time.
Should we choose the two-deficient attribute to strengthen the doll, or continue to add magic power?
Just as she realized she had obtained the arm of a goblin king servant, a sudden idea flashed into her mind.
Could we use the skin of a high-level demon as the skin for a doll?
It could even be used to make clothes; could it be used to increase toughness?
She acted immediately, because she didn't know where her arm was, so she had Milu bring it over.
You can find someone else, but... Milu can be quick!
At Ruby's request, Annie peeled off the goblin's arm completely.
After testing by a hero with low strength, it was found that even when the skin is stretched taut, it can still easily withstand the hero's attacks without being punctured.
Moreover, without sufficient strength, it's even difficult to cut through the muscles on a goblin's arm.
Ruby had another flash of inspiration and had Annie cut off several intact strips of muscle.
Then An'i was given two fingers of the Goblin King's servant that had been retrieved.
“Mr. Carl, come back to the room with me, let’s make a doll together!” Ruby said excitedly.
“Okay.” An Yi did not refuse.
"Wait! I want to go see too!" Noel leaned over.
"Go away! What's so interesting about being a doll! Mr. Carl is enough!" Ruby waved her hand dismissively.
"Don't you need their help?" Annie asked first.
“Huh? No need,” Ruby said.
"Why was that arm brought here?" An Yi asked, puzzled.
