Number One Lazy Merchant of the Beast World

After transmigrating into a beast world, Rong Mingshi discovered that the people of this world experienced widespread mania. For example, when their emotions were abnormally agitated, they would be...

Chapter 37 Peacock Spreads Its Tail

At this time, Rong Xiaobaozi was sleeping soundly, and the optical computer blocked all communications.

He had no idea that the rich handsome golden eagle was already extremely anxious at this time, and had sent dozens of messages to the store owner, including video, voice and text messages, but none of them were viewed by the store owner.

However, the only way for the handsome Golden Eagle to contact the store owner is through the buyer-seller communication tools provided by the Star Network online store platform. He does not have any other contact information or specific address of the store owner.

"Brother, I can't help you. You don't know how casual this shop owner is. It can be said that all his buyers agree that he is definitely the laziest shop owner to manage the store."

A tall and handsome man next to the handsome golden eagle was holding the golden eagle energy stone in his hand. He looked at him with sharp eagle eyes, "Since he opened the store to make money, he made a mistake in estimating when he set the price at 100 star coins the first time. He opened a custom order the second time, which shows that he still has financial sense. The next time the store owner comes online, you can try to offer him 500,000 and buy the next custom order."

The handsome Golden Eagle looked at the energy stone that his brother was holding up and down, his heart was about to jump out, he hurriedly snatched it, and carefully put it into his armband, "Brother, to order from his shop, you need to be quick, it will take seconds, paying is useless, and the shop owner's online time is not fixed, maybe he will open for orders at any time."

“Send me the name of the store.”

The handsome Golden Eagle sent the store name to his brother and said, "Brother, do you have time to grab it? Don't you have a mission in the capital?"

"I don't have time. Won't I let the rest of the scouting group grab it?"

"...Brother, you are amazing! Is this carving really that special? Although it is 100% of the power activated, and the carving is so handsome, but there are so many master carvers in the empire, there should be someone who can do it, right?"

A certain golden eagle elder brother didn't say anything, but reached out and patted his younger brother's shoulder, "Take good care of your injuries, I'm leaving now."

How special is that carving...

For the orcs living in the peaceful star region of the empire, that little bit of specialness probably means nothing.

After the power in the energy stone is activated, there will actually be energy overflow. The higher the activation rate, the more obvious it is. The higher the level of the energy stone, the more obvious it is, even if the activation rate of high-level energy stones is reduced.

The most special thing about this shop owner's energy stone carving is that he has completely concealed the 100% activated power of the energy stone.

If it had not been tested with the tester, it would be impossible to tell that this energy stone had been activated by the sculptor's perception.

This is very important to the Imperial Reconnaissance Corps.

The empire's greatest enemy is the Zerg that has invaded the star field for hundreds of years. The Zerg has a special way to detect the overflow of energy from energy stones. Therefore, front-line scouts cannot carry energy stones with high activation power ratios, and can only use low-level energy stones with low energy activation rates.

But this will lead to another fatal flaw. Soldiers are already more likely to suffer from mental trauma, and the outbreak of mania will tend to the other extreme, that is, the juvenile state, which has no resistance at all.

Therefore, an energy stone carving that can hide energy overflow is really important to frontline fighters...

In the evening, little leopard Rong woke up. Under the comfortable sleeping light adjusted by the housekeeper, he yawned lazily and stretched his paws.

At this time, the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window facing the big bed slowly opened, and the orange-yellow afternoon sunlight outside shone in, shining in front of the little leopard little by little.

Little leopard Rong dug his front paws into the thin quilt, turned his head and squinted at the sunlight for a while, then crawled out from under the quilt, waved to his spherical chair, climbed up and took out his blue-green stone.

The peacock provided by the custom buyer this time has intricate tail coverts, each of which is very perfect and exquisite, and most of them have beautiful eye-spot patterns on the ends. When the tail is opened, it trembles slightly, with beautiful and brilliant colors.

The stone chosen by Rong Xiaobaozi did not have the eye-spot-like pattern, but this stone was also different from his usual choices.

This blue-green stone has a top layer with mottled colors such as green, blue and white.

When viewed from the side, it looks like a structure similar to stacked pages of a book, with layers of colors stacked on top of each other.

The top layer is thicker and is large enough to carve the front half of the peacock.

The layered colors below are the parts that Rong Xiaobaozi likes because they can show off the peacock's tail feathers.

The carving of this peacock was also a challenge for Rong Mingshi, requiring more ingenuity than any other animal he had carved before.

After taking a very detailed look at the stone, Rong Xiaobaozi moved the stone to the table in the bedroom.

First, he carefully outlined the stone, carving out the general shape of the peacock's head crest, azure body, green wings, and light-colored claws.

Then, outline the rest in a fan shape.

Behind the fan-shaped tail feathers, Rong Xiaobaozi used the remaining stones to outline a magnolia as a background.

It was relatively easy to carve the front half, and Rong Xiaobaozi completed it smoothly and skillfully.

As for the tail feathers in the back half, Rong Xiaobaozi needs to put a lot of energy and cannot afford to make the slightest mistake.

A peacock has hundreds of tail feathers, each of which has hair-like fine feathers. Therefore, Rong Xiaobaozi's movements must be very careful and smooth, otherwise if there is any break in the middle, the feathers will appear not to be stretched and natural enough.

And on top of each tail feather, there are beautiful peacock eyes.

In order to show the breathtaking splendor of the peacock's eye when it spreads its tail, Rong Xiaobaozi uses multi-layer hollow carving, utilizing the color characteristics of the stone layer by layer. To show the gorgeous patterns of the peacock's eye, each layer of carving must be transparent, retaining the color of this layer of stone and revealing the color of the next layer. At the same time, each layer must have fine feather patterns, so that the color of each layer does not appear too thin.

Therefore, the entire carving process is like the superposition of a large number of micro-carvings.

It was not only Rong Xiaobao's ingenuity that was put to the test, but also his carving skills and the basics of leopard claws.

Fortunately, Rong Xiaobaozi used the tools assembled for him by Aojia, which covered all the knives for carving.

This was an extremely focused process, and Rong Xiaobaozi was completely oblivious to the outside world.

The whole body is in a state of extreme caution and seriousness.

At this time, Lord Black Dragon, after assembling the little black dragon, calmly issued several instructions. The targets of the instructions were naturally the Duke of Oran, who cherished his life, and his son, whom he regarded as his precious heir. He gave them a violent warning that hit the nail on the head.

Aojia came back after dealing with the matter. He gently pushed open the door and came in. What he saw was the little leopard squatting on the table carving stones.

Its ears stood straight up, and its thick furry tail curled up close to its body. Even the tip of the tail could reveal the little leopard's caution and concentration at the moment.

The stone beneath the little leopard's thick claws already looks a bit like a peacock.

Aojia’s mind flashed with the three-dimensional image of the peacock spreading its tail that Little Leopard had opened in the academy warehouse. He retreated quietly, gently closed the door, and turned to the housekeeper who had slid over and said, “Stabilize the light in the room. Don’t let it change.”

"Yes, sir," the butler replied, and then raised the nutritional supplement he was holding, "What about dinner?"

Aojia glanced at the bag of nutrients and said, "Put it away first."

The butler turned his head and glanced at the closed bedroom door. He could tell what the little leopard inside was doing through the bedroom's intelligent system, but no matter how hard he worked, he couldn't let the baby go hungry.

The butler was about to say something when he saw Lord Black Dragon walking towards the kitchen on the first floor.

The butler slid over quietly, staring at the marshal beating eggs with his mechanical eyes...

Then, the butler quietly turned on the recording mode and recorded the entire process of the Imperial Marshal baking the cake in high-definition 3D. He locked the secret key tightly, as this would be his study material in the future!

After a while, the butler followed the marshal quietly, watching him carry dozens of small cakes, each one ready to eat, to the bedroom.

The beast chosen by his child was too considerate, which was also a very distressing thing.

The housekeeper who had taken care of the little leopard for more than ten years suddenly felt that he had nothing to do.

...lost.

The little leopard in the room has completed half of its tail feathers, but just that small half is enough to give us a glimpse of how exquisitely the little leopard has been carved this time.

Aojia did not disturb the little leopard. He silently placed the cake on the table, picked up one, and quickly stuffed it into the little leopard's mouth without blocking the little leopard's sight.

The freshly baked cake is so soft that you can eat it without chewing.

The little leopard was concentrating and was not affected at all, and its claws did not stop at all.

Then, amid the subtle sound of a fine carving knife carving the energy stone, small pieces of cake were delivered into the little leopard's mouth.

As the night outside the bedroom window gradually deepened, the carving of Rong Xiaobao was gradually coming to an end.

After he carved his signature on the magnolia tree, he slowly put away the knife and raised his head slowly. His blue leopard eyes were wide open, with a strange spirit.

Aojia reached out and grasped the trembling paw of the little leopard after he put away the tools, and kneaded it slowly, "Is it done?"

Rong the little leopard nodded, and with his other leopard paw, he pushed the sculpture of a peacock spreading its tail towards Aojia like offering a treasure, "Aojia, does it look good?"

Aojia raised his eyes and looked over.

The azure body of the peacock, the proud crown feathers, the wings shining with scales, and the breathtaking peacock spreading its feathers.

The tail feathers carefully carved by the little leopard perfectly display the pride and splendor of the peacock when it spreads its tail.

This brilliance is not just superficial, but is integrated into the peacock's feathers in layers.

Behind the peacock is a sparse and natural magnolia branch. The white magnolia flowers are clean and gentle, which neither steals the splendor of the peacock's spread tail, nor does it distract from the elegance of the peacock's spread tail.

Of course, it also avoids the embarrassment of having a bald tail...

Aojia held the little leopard's chin with his hand, looked at the little leopard's energetic eyes and said, "Very good."

The praised Rong the little leopard twitched his tail, grinned and revealed his sharp little leopard teeth, then threw himself into Aojia's arms, closed his sparkling eyes, and fell asleep in a second...
