Chapter 128: Requesting For Weapons (2/2)
Lin Mu nodded after hearing her answer and thought it was reasonable. He didn't want them to rush in headfirst and make a mistake which they cannot afford.
”You can do whatever you want in the meantime. We will contact you when we need your help. We are also going to assign people to help the mercenaries keep a watch on their camp, so you don't need to be bothered with it. As for the culprits, we will be interrogating this person and investigate further.” Hei Wan explained.
'That should give me enough time to cultivate till I reach the late stage of the qi refining realm, hopefully.' Lin Mu thought.
Seeing Lin Mu lost in thought, an idea appeared in Hei Wan's mind.
”Do you perhaps need something from us? You've helped us plenty until now, so we should compensate you.” Hei Wan spoke.
Lin Mu raised his brows upon hearing her words. He then thought over the things that he had been desiring: Weapons.
He had tried buying them from the shops in the town but was unable to get them here. He had been told that he would need to get them from the Wu Lim City as they were rather unorthodox and were not popular enough in this area.
”I do want something.” Lin Mu spoke.
”Oh? What do you want?” Hei Wan asked.
”I want weapons.” Lin Mu replied.
”Well, that can be easily arranged. Just tell me what kind of weapons you want and we'll get them for you.” Hei Wan spoke in an assuring tone.
Lin Mu didn't reply to her straightaway, but instead withdrew a roll of paper from his ring. This roll of paper had the list of the weapons that he needed for training with the 'Thousand Armament Blade Scripture'. He had long since made this list, as he had not been able to find them in any of the shops here.
Lin Mu passed the roll of paper to Hei Wan, who promptly took it.
Upon seeing the roll of paper, Hei Wan thought that perhaps Lin Mu wanted some specific type of weapon and that its design was written on the paper. But when she unrolled it and read it, she was stunned.
It wasn't the design for a weapon on the roll of paper, but rather an entire list of weapons. She roughly glanced over at them and realized that there were more than three hundred weapons on there. Some of them were common weapons, while the others were unorthodox and rare.
She couldn't imagine why Lin Mu would need these weapons. While the common and uncommon weapons were fine with her, but some of the weapons that were mentioned on the list were simply unheard of to her. She had never seen names such as these.
Hei Bao approached Hei Wan and curiously peeked on the roll of paper that was in her hands.
”This… this is enough to equip a small army!” Hei Bao exclaimed.
Hei Bao was rather shocked by this and didn't know how Lin Mu would even use them.
'He couldn't possibly carry them all, could he? Even if he stored them in his high-grade spatial treasure, will he even have enough space for them?' Hei Bao thought.
Hei Wan removed her eyes from the roll of paper in her hands and looked up at Lin Mu again.
”Are you sure that you want these?” Hei Wan questioned.
”Yes, I'm sure. I want all of those weapons.” Lin Mu replied.
Lin Mu was actually not expecting to get all of the weapons. He knew that getting all of them would be an expensive affair, thus he would be happy with even a quarter of the weapons.
”Fine, then. I'll have them imported from the Wu Lim city. Though I don't know how much time it would take as some of them would probably have to be custom made.” Hei Bao replied.
'Wait, she's actually getting me all of them? That's makes it easy then.' Lin Mu inwardly spoke, feeling surprised.
He suppressed his surprise and made sure that it was not displayed on his face before speaking again.
”That's fine, I will wait for them. Thank you for the offer though.” Lin Mu spoke in a grateful tone.
Hei Wan simply nodded and gestured to one of the men with the straw hats. She handed the list to him and told him to get it ready. The man accepted and left the room to carry out his given task.
”I'll retreat for now then. I'll be at my house, so you know where to find me.” Lin Mu stated before leaving the room as well.
