Even though the employee didn't recognize this mundane-looking middle-aged man, his badge was irrefutable proof of his ident.i.ty! No one would dare to fabricate a seven-star Saint Blacksmith badge!

The blacksmith a.s.sociation didn't possess as lofty a status as that of the mecha a.s.sociation, but the president of the blacksmith a.s.sociation was a parliamentary member. That's right, Divine Blacksmith Zhen Hua was a parliamentary member, and on top of that, he was a member of the presidium. He was also one of the familiar names that Tang Wulin had seen on the list, and he was one of the leaders of the neutral faction.

”My apologies, I didn't know you were a Saint Blacksmith!” The employee didn't dare to chastise Tang Wulin for not wearing his badge to begin with. In reality, if it hadn't been for the fact that there was barely anyone on this floor, Tang Wulin wouldn't have put on his badge. Otherwise, he'd definitely be scrutinized like an endangered animal in a zoo.

”It's alright, there's no need to be nervous; I'm just here to do some missions. Which floor do I need to go to?”

The employee virtually jogged around from behind the counter, and said, ”I'll take you there.”

”That's a Saint Blacksmith! I heard that the federal military is contacting all blacksmiths, hoping that they'll partic.i.p.ate in the upcoming war, and they're offering extremely handsome rewards, including the newly synthesized black soul spirits from the Spirit PaG.o.da! I wonder how they missed out on this one.”

Tang Wulin's hearing was quite exceptional, so he was naturally able to overhear the hushed conversations taking place around him. The federation was offering synthetic black soul spirits as reparations? They really were making a huge investment; just those synthetic black soul spirits along had to be worth an astronomical sum of money.

The Spirit PaG.o.da really was the undisputed number one organization in this world when it came to soul spirit research. It had to be said that the Spirit PaG.o.da's current status was inseparable from the contributions they had made toward soul spirit research.

Every type of synthetic soul spirit that was successfully developed resulted in an overall increase in power for the Soul Master world, and the fact that there were barely any soul beasts left on the continent made this technology even more valuable. As such, virtually all Soul Masters had to be affiliated with the Spirit PaG.o.da to a certain extent.

For example, if the Spirit PaG.o.da were to refuse to sell soul spirits to a certain Soul Master, then that would undoubtedly severely hamper their future cultivation! This was most likely an issue that he would have to face in his plight to rebuild Shrek Academy.

He took the elevator all the way to the fourth floor, and there were even fewer people on this floor than on the first floor. There wasn't even a s.p.a.cious hall; there were only a series of pa.s.sageways.

Tang Wulin had deduced that this was most likely where the highest level forging rooms in the a.s.sociation branch were situated.

Saint Blacksmith's were extremely rare, and even in a branch as large as Bright City's, there were definitely not more than three Saint Blacksmiths among their ranks.

A beautiful young woman had already risen to her feet and made her way over to Tang Wulin with a smile on her face. ”Greetings, esteemed Saint Blacksmith, is there anything I can a.s.sist you with?”

It was undoubtedly the case that she had already been notified of Tang Wulin's ident.i.ty.

”I want to complete a few missions with federal credits as reparations.”

As a Saint Blacksmith, he could directly request what kind of reparations he wanted for his work, rather than having to choose missions for himself.

”No problem, that can certainly be arranged,” the young woman immediately replied, despite the slightly surprised look that had appeared on her face.

She was feeling rather perplexed. One had to realize that all Saint Blacksmiths were extremely wealthy; when had there ever been a Saint Blacksmith who was short on federal credits?

Generally speaking, most Saint Blacksmiths would only accept missions when they required some rare materials. Otherwise, just the high-grade Soul Masters who were looking to become three-word battle armor masters would be more than enough to keep them busy.

Furthermore, a Saint Blacksmith could virtually ask for anything in repayment for their services, as long as the terms weren't too absurd. This was why high-grade blacksmiths were held in higher regard than high-grade mecha makers, mechanics, and designers. They were simply far too rare!

A list of missions was presented to Tang Wulin, and there were no corresponding prices as the prices were to be proposed by the Saint Blacksmiths themselves.

That's right, the Saint Blacksmith could ask to be paid what they wanted. This was almost absurd in a way, but these were the rules of the blacksmith a.s.sociation.
