Chapter 197 Starlight Gem
The success of "Aoki Armor" means that the [Blacksmiths Association] can now get rid of the label of not being good at fighting.
Although limited by the forging threshold of spiritual metals and the difficulty of burning soul guide array patterns, currently only Tiefu Tu, Lou Gao, and Ling Yi can create it, and cannot reach the level of mass production, but the three Everyone worked together to create eleven sets of "Aoki Armor" at the speed of one set in three days.
It's not that Lou Gao and others don't want to continue building, but the cost is too high. Together with the initial set, there are a total of twelve sets of "Aoki Armor", which has almost emptied the hundreds of years of accumulation of the [Blacksmiths Association] Nearly half of the family fortune.
If we continue to squander like this, it will be a bit of a stretch for the [Blacksmiths Association].
Ling Yi: ‘I can only say that the huge [Blacksmiths Association] has accumulated so little wealth in hundreds of years? ’
This was the thought that came to Ling Yi’s mind while standing in the secret vault tens of meters underground of the general building.
To be honest, when Ling Yi finished practicing early this morning with the two girls Yang Xueli and A Yin, he went to the No. 2 foundry room and asked Lou Gao for a new copy of "Aoki War Armor" When looking for raw materials, Lou Gao spread his hands and said that there was no money in the meeting, Ling Yi was shocked.
It is true that the raw materials used to create the "Aoki War Armor" are mostly relatively rare metal minerals. Even if Lou Gao and the others do not count the craftsmanship fees of their master craftsmen, these metal minerals alone are The value is almost 100,000 gold soul coins!
One hundred thousand gold soul coins can be exchanged for a soul emperor level combat power.
Well, within the [Blacksmith Association] we can still find a dozen or twenty veteran blacksmith masters and above at the soul king level. Putting on the "Aoki Armor", they will have the combat power of a soul emperor level.
Looking at this deal, all the forces in the entire Douluo Continent, whether it is the two empires, the [Martial Spirit Hall] and the major sects, are definitely flocking to it!
Think about the original work in which Ning Fengzhi placed an order with Tang San to purchase 500 sets of hidden weapons for the price of 10,000 gold soul coins.
That's it, Tang San provided the parts drawings to [Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect] to build by themselves, and finally Tang San assembled and completed the delivery...
Five million! Golden Soul Coin!
To what extent can a set of hidden weapons transform combat power?
Soul Sect? Soul King? Or the Soul Emperor?
Of course, part of the reason why Ning Fengzhi was able to offer five million gold soul coins was to compensate for allowing Ning Rongrong's martial soul to evolve into the "Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda". That immortal plant "Qiluo Tulip", in terms of value, five million gold soul coins is really not expensive.
However, Ning Fengzhi can easily throw out five million gold soul coins, and the dignified [Blacksmith Association]...
Wait a minute, I almost forgot, [Seven Treasures Glazed Sect] is known as the No. 1 in the mainland. A wealthy man, a member of the Ning family with direct bloodline. With the "Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda", the martial arts version of the 'Golden Eye', he was able to write a Douluo Continent version of picking up the slack and getting rich.
On Douluo Continent, the power of capital is still in the barbaric era, and there are no such figures as Fan Li, Lu Buwei, and Shen Wansan. Even if there are similar budding ideas, if they do not have enough strength, it will be difficult to survive in this world where force is paramount. Come down.
So, the ‘poverty’ of the [Blacksmiths Association] is not so difficult to accept.
As his thoughts turned, Ling Yi sorted out the causes and consequences, and looked at this secret vault that had existed for hundreds of years from an objective perspective again.
Scanning over the dozen boxes of gold soul coins, Ling Yi turned his attention to the rows of shelves against the wall.
The coin wealth in this secret vault is currently inferior to that of the [Blacksmith Association·Shuimu Principality Branch] after Ling Yi unified it, but the real wealth is one of those placed on the shelf A treasure.
"Cold Heart Iron Essence", "Deep Sea Sunken Silver Mother", "Volcanic Copper Marrow", "Thundering Purple Gold Stone", "Ten Thousand Years Sycamore Wood Heart", "Earth Core Earth Crystal"... each one is worth more than ten thousand years. The peerless treasures under the soul bones were placed there so grandly. Ling Yi was quite dazzled by the sight and swallowed subconsciously.
"How is it? Our [Blacksmiths Association] still has some wealth, right?"
Lou Gao came to Ling Yi and said somewhat proudly .
“This is more than a little bit——” Ling Yi withdrew his eyes with difficulty, looked at Lou Gao beside him, and said: “These treasures are worth at least tens of millions of gold soul coins. Come on——"
Ling Yi remembered Lou Gao's action of putting two boxes of gold soul coins into the storage soul guide just now, and then looked at the untouched treasures, and couldn't help but complain:
"Brother, you guys It’s really Pixiu. How can you hold back so many treasures?”
“What if?” Lou Gao glanced at Ling Yi angrily and said, “These treasures The material is good, but apart from us, who else in the Douluo Continent would pay a high price for it?"
"Even if someone buys it, nine times out of ten they will take it back and store it in the treasure room. What’s the difference between leaving it here?”
Ling Yi was silent when he heard Lou Gao’s words.
Also, in Douluo Continent today, the only two master craftsmen, as well as him, the master craftsman who has not yet been certified and announced, are all here in "Gengxin City".
To be arrogant, except for Ling Yi and the others, no one in the entire Douluo Continent can bring out the true value of these peerless treasures!
Therefore, when these treasures are put at outside auctions, the actual auction price will definitely not reach half of the value of these treasures themselves. They are basically treated as treasured collections and bought by some nobles. Back to being a decoration.
“Over the past few hundred years, each president and master craftsman will put in the treasures they have collected.”
Lou Gao took Ling Yi to the rows of shelves. In front of the shelf, he said as he walked: "During this period, although there was some consumption, we often only tasted it briefly, and most of it was retained."
"Even we master craftsmen are sometimes daunted by these peerless treasures."
"Just like this "Deep Sea Sunken Silver Mother", its toughness is terrifying, even if it is a volcano Even the fire of lava cannot melt it. If you want to use it to make tools, you can only forcibly temper it with unparalleled strength! "
"No one in the [Blacksmiths Association] has been able to possess that kind of strength for hundreds of years. I heard from the master that he and his master tried together back then, and even if they used the martial spirit avatar, they could only deform the "Deep Sea Sunken Silver Mother" a little bit..."
'More than that, according to the The development of the plot in the original work not only required the ninety-seventh level 'Howling Sky Douluo' Tang Xiao to assist in tempering, but also required you, a master craftsman of the Soul Saint level, to throw your body into the furnace and use your blood to activate the "Heavy Rain Pear Blossom Needle" blade. Sharp energy...'
Ling Yi added in his mind, once again having some doubts about the authenticity of the martial arts world in Tang San's previous life.
"Eh--"
Ling Yi paused as the steps of the building were taking place, and looked at the third floor of the shelf in front of him.
Lou Gao followed Ling Yi's gaze and saw a fist-sized light blue gem with haloes of light flashing on it. The strange brilliance gave people a dazzling feeling. Like stars shining.
