Chapter 977: Staying Away From Trouble (Part 2)
Xu Changqing knew very well that in addition to doing some pranks and bad things that harm others and do not benefit oneself, Hermes was very similar to himself in many other places. The two can be said to be the same type of people. If he puts his heart in mind, he can naturally easily infer Hermes' decisions and ideas.↗
Xu Changqing knew from the beginning that the ball key could not be hidden from Hermes' wisdom, and he knew better that Hermes would never refuse the bait he threw. Although Hermes had strong suspicion about him taking out the ball key, Hermes' curiosity would defeat reason in the end and accepted this transaction that paid an unequal price, because the hidden benefits were enough to cover up the risks he might encounter.
"I promised this deal, I will give you news as soon as possible." Hermes hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart as Xu Changqing guessed. He held the box containing the ball key in his hand, then pointed to the list, and said: "But before this, you'd better create more magical weapons for the God of War City. And the magical weapons on it alone are not enough to make those guys feel that you are a trouble. It's better to forge a few more intimidating true magical weapons, so that I can also fight for the status and power you deserve in front of those guys."
Hermes' words were very reasonable. Xu Changqing would take over such a large order for artifacts in the God of War City to use the power of the God of War City to put pressure on the pure blood gods. However, Hermes's intention to ask Xu Changqing to forge a few real gods is not just for external pressure, but more like testing, testing what kind of artifacts Xu Changqing could forge.
"I know how to do it?" Xu Changqing did not object. He nodded.
As he nodded, Hermes seemed to have no intention of leaving any more moments. He disappeared from his eyes instantly, and his possessed artifact hung on the wall on its own. The box with the ball key disappeared with it.
Seeing that Hermes had fallen into the trap, Xu Changqing smiled on his face, activated the divine formation in the hall again, returned to his main hall divine seat, and monitored the forging craftsmen and mortal craftsmen in the entire forging workshop by erecting the divine formations in the forging furnaces everywhere. He also constantly corrected the errors in forging and made up for some of the defects in the forging artifact itself.
In the following days, Xu Changqing focused on supervising the forging workshop. With his deliberate guidance and support of divine artifacts, not only batches of mortal slaves composed of turbid orcs and mixed races quickly became craftsmen who could skillfully control the forging artifacts. At the same time, although the original turbid beast craftsmen in the forging workshop did not improve much in terms of skills, they became extremely skillful in forging some ordinary artifacts. In addition, there was no need to distract from forging, and only needed to concentrate on inscribed divine formations, which made the yield rate of the artifact reach an unimaginable level, and it was difficult to find a waste product among thousands of consumable artifacts.
In order to increase the pressure on the pure blood gods, Xu Changqing made another slave transaction with the War God City in the past two days. The transaction was paid with the artifact order, both the number of artifacts paid and the number of slaves traded were extremely large. Because the situation in the Holy Ruins is so subtle, the War God City and the Pure Blood God City are almost all secretly flirting. In addition, the alliance with the Brahmin Gods is made public. With the cooperation of the two forces, various mortal slaves from outside the Temple Star, the servant gods of the two tribes entered the Temple Star very smoothly and sent them to the Xu Changqing forging workshop. These slaves not only included turbid orcs and mixed races from the third star ring, but also had a large number of gods from the Turbid orcs and mixed races, and filled the originally empty forging workshop in a short time.
The large amount of manpower supplementation has allowed the efficiency of forging artifacts in the factory to be fully utilized, and the number of artifacts produced has also increased by astonishing numbers. The first batch of artifact orders, which Xu Changqing originally estimated to have taken half a month to complete, was completed within a few days. Because the number of artifacts produced has increased, the supply of various spiritual materials required for forging has become in short supply. If Xu Changqing had not obtained Hermes' treasure, the forging workshop, which had just begun to operate with full strength, might have been suspended.
Because Xu Changqing's order for the artifact of War God City was completed too perfectly, the plan of War God City to use the forging workshop as a attracting the attention of the pure blood gods was failed, creating a situation of counter-customer. The orders originally placed in the hands of other forging craftsmen were gradually transferred to Xu Changqing. After all, Xu Changqing's location was really good. Just on the edge of the control area of War God City, there was no need to worry about how to safely transport the artifacts from outside. It only required a team of people to escort it.
If the consumption artifacts and ordinary low-level artifacts made by the Forging Factory have been recognized by the God of War City, then the few true god artifacts created by Xu Changqing later made the pure blood gods of the Temple Star and the gods of the God of War City shift their attention from the overall strength of the Forging Factory to Xu Changqing's personal forging ability.
These real god artifacts are specially customized by the Yuan family in the War God City. However, the Yuan family gods sent by the War God City to place orders did not think that Xu Changqing would refine the real god artifacts they needed. Even Yuan Yuan, who had always been very confident in Xu Changqing, did not expect that, and it would be even more impossible that he would have thought of delivering the goods so quickly.
The Yuan family has this view not because these real god artifacts are so difficult to refine, nor because of how powerful these real god artifacts are. In fact, they are extremely special. They are so special that when they tell Xu Changqing, they don’t know what the real god artifact they want. All the narratives are just a vague concept.
The Yuan family has always been one of the most powerful gods in the War God City. Whether it is the ordinary gods at the bottom or the true gods who have achieved the name of the gods, the Yuan family can always occupy the top three gods among the gods in the War God City. Even the pure blood gods of the Temple Star also believe that if it were not for the bloodline, the strength of the Yuan family at its peak might definitely be the fourth largest god in the Temple Star, at least it would not be much worse than the Brahmin gods at its peak.
But such a powerful god clan does not have a inheritance artifact that matches its divine power. In the Holy Ruins, any god clan attaches great importance to the inheritance artifact of the clan, such as the inheritance artifact of the Zeus clan in the Olympus tribe, the inheritance artifact of the Sun God clan of the Nine Pillar God Clan, the inheritance artifact of the Sun God Clan, etc. The inheritance artifact is not only the most powerful artifact of this clan, but also the most in line with the divine power and divine fire of this clan. The role of the inheritance artifact does not only represent the inheritance of the power of the divine spirit, but also represents the inheritance of the life experience and wisdom of the previous inheritance artifact holders. Therefore, even the weakest tribes have inheritance artifacts belonging to their clan, but the Yuan family is very strange that there is no such inheritance artifact.
With the strength of the Yuan family, the true god artifact is not a rare object, but there is no inheritance artifact that can allow the Yuan family's true god artifact to exert its full power. This also makes the head of the Yuan family lose a little inheritance accumulated in the heads of other god families and clans of the God of War City, and the strength cannot be fully exerted.
In the past, the Yuan family was not without looking for skilled craftsmen from the gods to forge true god artifacts for them. The expenses they paid for even affected the development of the tribe. Otherwise, with the strength of the Yuan family, the War God City would have been the only one in their family, and they would not have been as strong as they are now.
Although Xu Changqing's identity is a master of divine craftsman who has been recognized by the Holy Ruins God Clan, in the eyes of most gods, Xu Changqing's forging strength is still far from the real master of divine craftsmanship. Because there has not yet been a representative and authoritative true god artifact in his hands, his master of divine craftsmanship is obtained entirely because of the series of hidden artifacts. Like most gods of the gods, the gods who abbot of the Yuan family have the same view, so he only expressed some ideas about the true god artifacts needed by the Yuan family in the past dynasties about the true god artifacts needed by the clan, and did not involve too specific divine arrays, divine texts, and the structure of the artifacts, and even some semi-finished forging drawings forging that were not successful in the past but could be used to make a living.
However, it was these vague and undefined forging requirements that had not been clearly guided, which turned into several true god artifacts that were very suitable for the Yuan family's true god gods. When this news spread, most people didn't believe it was true. But when a true god god in the Yuan family was transporting a batch of turbid beast gods into the War God City, they were intercepted by a true god god from the Sun God La lineage. At that time, the Yuan family's true god took out a true god artifact that had never been seen before and defeated the Sun God True God with the same strength. This made the gods believe that Xu Changqing had really forged a true god artifact for the Yuan family that was suitable for them.
It is precisely because of the example of the Yuan family that the gods who were still skeptical began to contact Xu Changqing, hoping that he could specifically forge a true god artifact for the true gods in his clan, including the pure blood gods.
