Summoner is Going c239.1
「Sorry, I’m late!」
「Nmou! Everyone is waiting you know?”」
When Adele return, everyone was already ready.
Let’s check everything.
Where is the jump point for the return home, I wonder?
There is a really point without a name here at the southern end of S5.
Irina is Wind Spirit Village.
Haruna is the temple of dust.
Adele, Konohana, Hyodor-kun can jump into the grey forest.
Oh, what is this…
Since she has the relay point already, did she think it is okay for her to be late?
Oh well, whatever.
Sometimes, people prefer to do a collective action than doing it alone by themselves.
After finished organizing the party, we exit the instant portal and jump to the gray forest map.
Hyodor-kun is the one in charge of the spell casting.
Since in terms of MP bars, he is the strict side.
Also, he is the only person that still cannot use the instant portal.
I want him to do his best.
「See you guys in the evening.」
「Right, see you.」
「See you next time—!」
Only Hyodor-kun will log out after we arrive in the Gray forest.
It was not that he wants to work separately.
It was because to recover his MP bar, it would be more efficient if he just wait until evening.
I was not aware of it until now, but in terms of efficiency, it is almost twice compared to wait while online.
If you spend the time in the game aimlessly, and without doing action that consume MP such as spell, the recovery rate would be around 10 percent in one hour.
And by login out, the recovery rate would be twice of that.
It seems that there is also a survey result that says the recovery of an abnormal status would be restored every 1 hour.
Though, I have never experience it myself, so I don’t know for sure.
I was in a hurry back then as I opened the Guren-kun reports, and as I searched, I had found similar hypothesis.
But I need to be careful.
After all, if I read all of the report, I am afraid that it would be a spoiler.
What kind of a dilemma I have here…
「Then, we are until here!」
「I will work as a chef and earn some extra coins.」
Adele and Irina seems to want to immediately open a stall.
Even though I said stall, it was just some desk being lined up together.
With《Item Box》, one don’t have to really use stall and walk around.
Ad if you have meat from hunting, you won’t have any problem selling it anytime.
There are phantom horse meat, and the taste is subtle, but it was something that won’t be able to root away.
「So, we are up until here as well…」
「Let us meet at this stall in the evening.」
Haruna and Konohana helped their acquaintance workshop by making some clothes.
It seems that anyone can work anywhere as long as you have the materials and ability.
They always carry around rock goat hair.
Speaking of which, in my spare time, I sometimes saw them spinning some yarn.
As expected, clothing, food and shelter is important!
Especially when economy is in recession!
Now then…
I will be free until evening.
First of all, lets see some item in the street stall, there might be something interesting.
There may be equipment that I want to buy as well.
Or it might inspire me with some ideas.
In any case, it is worth the look.
But before that…
Should we call some summoned monsters?
Volff, Helix, Kokuyo, Strand, Romulus.
For the time being, I tried to make a formation without any specific purpose.
I’m not afraid.
Do you think I’m scared?
Definitely, I’m not scared.
I guess lets start looking around.
What looks interesting?
Speaking of something interesting, there is that…
I can’t really say it with words.
In this street, there is a stall of the merchant Muto-kun whom I met here before.
Those rubbers equipment are increasing.
Again, it is a shield…
The quality is low again…
「Yo, how are you?」
「Ah! Summoner-san, no, Keith-san was it?」
「This, did you make this one again?」
「Indeed. Though it seems to be a failure again…」
「Fumu, I see…」
If you ask why, the answer is…
The surface is quite brittle.
Despite being a new article, it already has some cracks occurred here and there.
As I try to touch it, the hardness varies considerably depending the surface area that I touch.
That is not a good trend.
「This is tattered isn’t it? This looks like a big failure.」
「I believe it was because the heat given to vulcanizing was too great…」
「Eh?」
「And that method didn’t seem to work well…」
「Do you have some ideas you want to do next?」
「I don’t have much idea left. I can’t say for sure though, since I haven’t seen the next production site yet…”
Right right…
In this game world, many things could be done with some magic skills and production skills.
And I don’t believe the modern knowledge could be used as a rule of thumb here…
「Can you give me sometimes? I have some friend who could make rubbers…」
「Hou…」
There is huh?
Would it sound like a lie if I said I don’t have any interest in rubbers?
It seems I have gotten involved with something bothersome.
Well, if I look at the scane, I might be able to give some advice.
But, my knowledge is very limited to begin with, so no one should expect much from me.
「Thank you very much. I’m Ryukahn, the farm leader.」
「Alchemist Leader, Sakura.」
「I’m Kono, from the blacksmith….」
There seems to be other fixed members beside them, but it seems that this members are the one who made the shield.
Strange smell when I entered the workshop.
That smell of rubber being vulcanized.
It seems currently they are doing some vulcanization.
「I want to borrow some of your wisdom for making rubber!」
「Do you know why it was failed?」
「No, I don’t think I can say much about it either…」
I then take a look at the mold like thing that is being heated and sandwiched between two plate.
How thick is that?
It fees like the very thickness of the rubber made the shield.
I guess that is around 2 inches?
「About the way you guys vulcanizing the rubber… How much heat did you guys use?」
「Around 200 degrees.」
Sakura-san answered my question.
If I remember correctly, she is the female leader of the alchemists right?
Her appearance is cute just like Adele.
But she possess the opposite atmosphere.
「It was definitely too hot isn’t it?」
「But if it was not that much, the heat won’t go through…」
「It is the same when we do the deterioration test on the surface of the vulcanized rubber. I think we should stop here…」
「Stop?」
「Let’s stop.」
Thick vulcanized rubber appeared from the mold frame.
It smells very strong.
Too much of vulcanizing.
「This time we go for 200 degrees but, is this a failure again?」
「What was wrong?」
「It will be a little longer, but it is okay.」
What’s the problem?
Vulcanization condition are the same. but that is not all?
Are they always vulcanizing such a thick thing?
Somehow, it seems simple but it was actually difficult huh?
「To vulcanizing such a big thing, maybe we need to lower the temperature while making it constant?」
「Lower the temperature?」
“Let us take a fried chicken for an example?”
That is right…
In a sense, vulcanizing rubber is similar to cooking.
It is a critical to manage the heat.
Just like in cooking.
I intend to explain it as easy as possible.
I wonder if it could get through them?
Since my explanation is somehow clumsy like this.
When you cook a fried chicken, sometimes you think the heat is not enough and the inside of the chicken would remain raw, no?
At least, I do sometimes feels like that.
In fact, many times actually.
Though somehow, the me who was like that trying to explain how to manage heat, that is very funny.
Well, let us put that aside.
what immportant now is what to do?
The answer is Fry longer.
Surely, that way, the inside would be cooked well.
But, there’s no meaning if the surface got burned into charcoal.
So, what would happen if you increase the temprature?
It would just get worse.
And since some carbon is mixed to strengthen the vulcanized rubber, the deteriorating surface is hard to see…
After all, everything is just black.
The vulcanized rubber used for that shield has already a crack before being displayed.
The surface was too brittle, even by touching it, I can understand.
Woops.
The one of the measure.
So, what good measure should I use to cook the chicken properly?
There are two ways.
One is to lower the temperature and take more time to cook.
The other one is to cut the chicken into smaller pieces.
Though, it would have been more effective if I combine both of them.
