“It’s changed. The Armament Manual has changed!”
In the forging room of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch, Li Chengliang shouted without any restraint.
“What changed?” another Grand Craftsman asked in confusion. The other forgers all turned their heads and looked at Li Chengliang.
“There are two more weapons in the Connate Armament Manual!”
Li Chengliang activated his spiritual essence and injected it into the Heavenly Mirror in his hand. A light screen was projected.
!!
It was the Connate Armament Manual!
The Connate Armament Manual, which originally only had two weapons, now had four.
First, Ming Hong Saber.
Second, Longevity Sword.
Third, Kun Wu Saber.
Fourth, Crimson Firmament Sword.
The first in the Connate Armament Manual had become a saber they had never heard of!
“The Crimson Firmament Sword forged by His Highness has fallen to fourth place,” someone whispered in the background.
“Fourth is pretty good too,” an experienced Grand Craftsman said. “We might not even be able to forge a weapon ranked in the top one hundred of the Acquired Armament Manual. It’s ranked fourth in the Connate Armament Manual.
“If one day I can forge a weapon ranked fourth in the Connate Armament Manual, I can die in peace.” The Grand Craftsman sighed.
“That’s true.” All the forgers nodded.
“But tell me, which forger forged the Ming Hong Saber and Kun Wu Saber?” Li Chengliang pondered. “Could it be a legendary Divine Craftsmen?”
“Others might not know, but don’t you know, Grand Craftsman Li?” A Grand Craftsman shook his head. “Divine Craftsman is just an honorary t.i.tle. Their forging skills might not be much better than ours. I’m afraid they’re still not strong enough to forge connate weapons.”
There was a saying in the Ten Nations that there were Divine Craftsmen, but the so-called Divine Craftsmen now were just some of the more senior Grand Craftsmen. There was no essential difference between their skills and those of Grand Craftsmen.
Li Chengliang and the others didn’t believe Divine Craftsmen could forge connate weapons. If anyone in the Ten Nations could forge connate weapons, they would have done so long ago.
“Anyway, His Highness’s record should have been broken…” a Forging Master said weakly.
Ever since Zhou Shu started forging, he had dominated the rankings for whatever level of weapon he could forge.
He had always been the one to drive other weapons down from first place in the Armament Manual. This was the first time he had fallen from first place.
“Says who?” Shi Songtao’s voice suddenly sounded at the door.
“The pavilion master’s forging skills are unparalleled!” Shi Songtao said proudly. “Let me tell you. The Ming Hong Saber was also personally forged by the pavilion master!”
“What?” The forgers were in an uproar. “Your Highness hasn’t forged anything recently.”
“His Highness doesn’t need a furnace to forge. He can forge at any time. Does he need to answer to you?” Shi Songtao said. “There’s a mission now. His Highness needs a few people to help. Grand Craftsman Li, pick a few people who have a deeper understanding of forging materials.”
“I’ll do it!”
“Me!”
Before Shi Songtao finished speaking, the forgers had already raised their hands and shouted.
It was definitely a good thing to be able to help the king.
It had only been a few days, but the king had already forged another connate weapon. If they could witness him forging a connate weapon, it would be a fortune for three lifetimes!
At the exit of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Demon Realm branch, Zhou Shu, Lu Wenshuang, and Mi Ziwen were all standing here.
Xiao Jianghe, Mei Wushang, w.a.n.g Xin, Chen Ji, Yin Chengshan, Sun Gongping, and other senior workers were also present.
Apart from Yin Wuyou and Yang Hong, who weren’t in the camp, these people were all the owners of ranked weapons Zhou Shu had forged. If not for the fact that Meng Bai wasn’t suitable, Zhou Shu would have even called him along.
This operation wasn’t very dangerous. Zhou Shu was creating an opportunity for his workers to contribute.
After all, they were all his employees. He couldn’t forget his own people when there were benefits.
“A few forgers will come later. Each of you will be responsible for bringing one,” Zhou Shu said. “Work together in pairs. Try your best to choose something valuable to take!
“Remember, our time is limited. We can’t take everything away. The forgers are in charge of screening, and you are in charge of taking everything. When the time is up, we will immediately retreat!”
Demon Queen Tushan had set up many traps in her secret base.
Even if Lu Wenshuang could easily bring them in, as long as they moved the things inside, they would definitely attract the attention of Tushan.
In half an hour, Tushan would arrive at the base.
Zhou Shu didn’t have the confidence to win against her, so he didn’t want to fight her to the death now.
He would use her things to strengthen the Ten Nations Alliance. When he was stronger and could crush Demon Queen Tushan, he would kill her.
This was the solution in his mind.
As he spoke, Shi Songtao returned with a few forgers.
According to Zhou Shu’s instructions, Sun Gongping, Xiao Jianghe, and the others formed a small team with a forger each. Then everyone quietly left the camp.
There were high and low cultivation levels in this group. There was naturally no need to say anything about Zhou Shu. Lu Wenshuang and Xiao Jianghe were first-rank martial artists, Mi Ziwen and w.a.n.g Xin were second-rank martial artists, and Sun Gongping, Mei Wushang, Chen Ji, and Yin Chengshan were slightly weaker. The weakest were fourth-rank martial artists.
