而在炼器师圈子里,再用“秃鹫”这么凶残的外号就不合适了,一听就不像是个善类啊！ Therefore, in the Artificer circle, his nickname called „Fiend Star”, haha, „Grandmaster Fiend Star”, this name was good! 所以,在炼器师圈子里,他的外号就叫“妖星”,哈哈,“妖星大师”,这个名字不错！ „Buzz!” “嗡！” Killer whale Transport Ship trembles gently, speed starts to reduce speed. 虎鲸运输舰轻轻一颤,速度开始减慢。 In all around passenger, has resounded slightly somewhat intense discussion sound. 四周乘客之中,响起了略微有些紧张的议论声。 The Li Yao smiling face collects, receives the light screen, has thrown into the brain , after the Fiend Beast Detector matter instantaneously. 李耀笑容一敛,收起光幕,瞬间将妖兽探测器的事情抛到了脑后。 Now he has a more important matter to Process Certified Artificer test!
