Chapter 617: 617

“Big business? What big business? Did you con more people?” asked Guo Ran excitedly .

“f.u.c.k, do you think I’m such a bad person?” raged Long Chen . But his words were said somewhat guiltily, because it seemed any big businesses he had conducted truly did involve conning people .

Long Chen immediately changed the subject . “Let me ask you, once you smelt this material, what kind of things can you create?”

“With this much material, I can create a whole new suit of golden armor for myself . I’ll become a golden battle G.o.d . ” Guo Ran confidently looked at the spatial ring . His eyes were s.h.i.+ning as if he could already see himself in his golden armor valiantly standing on the battlefield .

“Hey, don’t daydream . Wipe away your drool . If you can create armor, can you create weapons?” asked Long Chen .

Guo Ran turned a bit listless and shook his head . “To tell the truth, having me forge this kind of material is a complete waste . Xiantian cla.s.s material is already my limit . If I were to forge Enchanted cla.s.s material, I would end up wasting half its power . As for this kind of Treasure cla.s.s material… I think I might end up wasting… ninety percent of its power . ”

Guo Ran was ashamed . If a grandmaster forger were to learn that a rookie like Guo Ran was about to ruin such precious natural treasures, they would definitely beat him to death and then beat his corpse some more .

“That’s fine . As long as you can forge it, it’s fine . You’re already very strong . As long as it can increase your strength, it’s not wasteful . So how strong will you be if you create armor from this?” asked Long Chen .

“Attacks below the Sea Expansion realm can be ignored . As for Sea Expansion experts, I can’t say for sure, because I’ve only seen them attack in photographic jades . However, I should be able to reduce the impact of their attacks by quite a bit,” said Guo Ran .

Long Chen nodded . “That’s already very powerful . But why can’t you make it into weapons?”

“Because martial weapons focus on offense, but the forging runes recorded in the supermonastery focus on defense . As for the attacking runes available, they’re too low cla.s.s . Furthermore, the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record’s runes are too profound, and I can’t comprehend them . So if I were to place the supermonastery’s runes on a martial weapon, I wouldn’t be able to add much offensive might to them at all . That really would be turning divine material into trash,” sighed Guo Ran .

According to Guo Ran, the supermonastery had quite a few Forging Masters . But those Forging Masters were extremely arrogant, and they liked to look down their noses at people . Guo Ran had tried sucking up to a few of them, but as a result, he had had to leave without any achievements at all . They simply ignored him .

Obviously, those Forging Masters were very protective of their secret forging arts . They refused to transmit them .

“As, so that’s what it was . ” Long Chen sank into thought for a moment before saying, “If you refine this material into hidden arrows, needles, and other concealed weapons used for sneak attacks, how strong would they be?”

“Of course, that would be bada.s.s . Such material is already extremely hard . Even without carving runes into those, their killing power would definitely be terrifying . But to turn this material into concealed weapons is a bit wasteful . Maybe we should just store it for now? Once my forging arts improve, I can forge it into better things,” suggested Guo Ran . Using such precious material to create a set of armor for himself had already felt wasteful to him .

This kind of Treasure cla.s.s material was too rare . It had to be known that above Xiantian weapons were Enchanted weapons, and the formation runes carved onto them made them specialized for Sea Expansion experts .

As for Treasure weapons, those were the weapons of experts above the Sea Expansion realm . Only those kinds of experts could activate the power of a Treasure weapon .

Guo Ran could at most forge Xiantian weapons . He himself felt it was far too wasteful for him to refine Treasure cla.s.s material .

“Time waits for no one . Just directly forge this into concealed weapons . Furthermore, make each Dragonblood warrior a supremely powerful crossbow specialized toward shooting high-speed arrows . Let me ask you, if every warrior of the Dragonblood Legion shot their crossbows at one person at the same time, what would happen?” asked Long Chen .

“With my current forging skills, the best crossbow I can make is definitely shockingly powerful . If over three hundred people shot one at the same time, then… then even Sea Expansion experts would end up heavily injured at the least . ” Guo Ran suddenly realized what Long Chen wanted .

“Then that’s perfect . Our enemies will only grow stronger in the future . These crossbows and concealed weapons will be one of our life-saving measures . So do your best to forge them as fast as possible . Now isn’t the time to care about wasting some material . We don’t have that much time to waste . We might be alright waiting, but our enemies won’t wait for us, understand?” warned Long Chen .

“I understand . I’ll immediately go into seclusion, and I won’t come out until I’m finished . But boss, in terms of money…”

“I have two thousand middle grade spirit stones here . Take these first and focus on creating your armor . I’ll think of a way to gather more spirit stones,” said Long Chen . He now felt a bit regretful that he had refused to accept the Yin family’s spatial ring from Mo Yi .

The main reason was that he hadn’t felt alright with doing so . In order to use the Mo Mountain Seal to save him, Mo Gate had definitely used up a great deal of resources . Long Chen naturally wouldn’t make them work for nothing .

However, the Yin family was an ancient family . They had definitely been rich . If he had known this would happen, he would have asked for some spirit stones . Then he wouldn’t be in such a strained state .
