"No, it's not." The youth's face was complex: "It's not a three-star item. The result of the evaluation was unexpected. It's a four-star item!"
Tiffany was relieved but was stunned when she heard the youth's words.
"Four-star item? High-grade item? "Tiffany looked at the youth. She suspected that she had an auditory hallucination.
The youth smiled: "Yes, the news has spread outside. It's the first four-star military item in five years. Moreover, it's the highest level of close-combat crossbow."
"Close-Combat crossbow?" Tiffany was startled once again. Her mind was in chaos. She suddenly remembered the scene a few days ago in the Temple. She had seen a young and arrogant figure. Although she couldn't remember his face, but his dark and deep eyes were more and more clear. They were like two demonic stars in the night, cold and gloomy.
"Four-star top-grade … close-combat crossbow …" She muttered to herself.
…
In just half a day, the news about the military crossbow swept through all the major consortiums like a hurricane. It also swept through all the castles of the 'Temple of Elements'. Even the primary architects were aware of the news. After all, the emergence of a top-grade four-star item. Although it couldn't change the world like a legendary item, it would still promote a great change in certain parts of the world and even create a new pattern.
Moreover, this time it was produced by the strongest newcomer who had just won the 'epoch' medal. The news spread very fast. It wasn't inferior to a five star item produced by a master. Of course, it wasn't inferior to a five star item produced by a master.
Church Hill.
The youth was driving the carriage slowly on the mountain road.
Three or five teenagers wearing primary architects' robes were walking together. They were eagerly discussing things. They passed by the youth who was driving the carriage. They didn't recognize the coachman as the one they were talking about.
"Huh?" Dean was surprised as he passed by the primary architects: "Four-star top-grade? Close-Combat crossbow? Are they talking about my work? " He looked in the direction of the ten castles. Most of the primary architects had come back from the Temple of the ten castles. He was surprised. Although he expected that the military crossbow would be very practical, but he didn't expect that the 'Temple of Elements' would give it such a high evaluation.
"It seems that it's very difficult for a senior architect to make a four-star crossbow. A senior architect who can make two four-star crossbows is basically qualified to be promoted to a master architect. However, the premise is that they have to hand over two four-star artifacts to the 'Temple of Elements' to exchange for points." There was a smile on Dean's face. He thought that it would be a three-star or high-grade crossbow. Now it seemed that the value of this crossbow was far higher than what he had imagined!
Apart from the 'new textile machine', this was his first official work after joining the 'Temple of Elements'. It was enough to suppress all the criticism. Although he didn't care about these criticisms, it represented a kind of value to be valued by people. However, it was not a good thing for him to take such a high step. When the military crossbow was born, his existence in the New World Consortium would no longer be invisible. The hidden threat should have already been noticed by the other consortiums. While he was receiving praise and praise, he would also be accompanied by knives and knives!
However, he had already expected this. That's why he declined the invitations of the nobles for entertainment and dinner. Instead, he worked hard to make lightning rods in his castle.
Dean shook the reins and changed the direction. He didn't continue to go to the Temple of Elements. It would be overcrowded if he was recognized. There was no need to waste time to be in the limelight.
Dean drove the carriage back to the seventh castle. He saw six or seven figures standing at the entrance of the castle. They were looking left and right. One of them was Bernard. He was surprised for a moment but immediately guessed what was going on. He jumped out of the carriage and carried a few suitcases out of the carriage. He walked along the small ramp towards the castle. Bernard and the others saw Dean when they were about one or two hundred meters away from him. They were pleasantly surprised as they rushed to greet him.
"Dean! Dean!"
"Mr. Dean!"
Bernard took the lead and ran over: "So many things. Let me help you." He raised his hand to grab a suitcase that was hooked by Dean's little finger. His arm sank as he lifted it: "What's inside? It's so heavy. Is it metal?"
At this time, the other four or five people also ran over one after another. Among them, there was a tall and slender young woman with snow-white skin. She was also a divine emissary of the same castle. Her beautiful eyes flickered with an extraordinary splendor. She stood behind the crowd and carefully sized up this young man.
"I'll help you."
"I'll help."
Several youths enthusiastically came forward to help Dean.
Dean was afraid that they would make too much noise and damage the parts inside: "Don't. I'll do it myself. Don't damage it."
Seeing that he didn't want to be polite, they immediately stopped. One of them looked at Bernard and laughed: "Little Bernard, you're too weak. You're so tired carrying a box."
"Lil 'Bo is acting." Another young man laughed loudly.
The veins on Bernard's arms bulged and his neck swelled. He gasped: "Don't make sarcastic remarks."
They saw that the atmosphere wasn't as strange as it was at the beginning. One of them enthusiastically said to Dean: "Dean, congratulations! You are worthy to be the chosen one who won the 'epoch' medal. You are able to create a four-star item! Praise the God of Light!"
Dean looked at the person. It seemed that it was the first time they met. He modestly said: "It's a fluke."
"Dean, what you said is wrong. You are the accumulation of knowledge. I saw you go to the library every day. Now you are able to create a four star item by yourself. It has nothing to do with luck." Another pretended to correct Dean.
Dean smiled but didn't say anything.
The crowd followed him all the way and praised him. One of them asked: "Dean, are you going to sell your four-star crossbow to the Temple or consortium?"
The others looked at Dean with envy. If he sold it to the Temple then he would immediately become a senior architect! If he sold it to the consortium it would be a huge fortune!
Most of them, like Bernard, came from ordinary families in the commercial district. They relied on their own hard work to be selected into the 'Temple of Elements'. Step by step, they climbed their way to where they were today. Even the nobles were envious of the wealth they could get from selling a top-grade four-star item. For them, it was enough to let them enjoy a carefree life. They were completely free from the boring work of studying and studying the divine arts.
Dean looked at him: "I'll think about it."
The young man's eyes lit up and said: "I suggest you sell to a consortium. As far as I know, the Green Consortium is not bad. They have deep financial resources and can certainly sell for a good price. If you need it, I will help you contact them."
Dean smiled: "Do you have a relationship with the Green consortium?"
The young man saw the surprised looks on everyone's face and showed a bit of pride, saying: "My uncle lives with the Glinton family of the Glinton financial group. He is the coachman of the Glinton patriarch. If my uncle is the middleman, the Glinton family will definitely pay a high price."
Bernard laughed: "Dean's four-star crossbow won't be able to sell for money even without your uncle's help."
The youth's face turned red: "I'm sure I can sell it. But the price will be better if I have an acquaintance."
Dean saw his thoughts and smiled: "Let's talk about this later." He picked up the boxes and entered the building. He saw an old figure coming down from the stairs. It was Henson.
Henson also saw Dean and Bernard. He was surprised for a moment. He looked at Dean: "Are you going to make a new invention with so many boxes?"
Dean nodded but didn't say anything.
"Congratulations …" Henson came over and said in a resentful tone.
Dean smiled: "It was a fluke."
There was a trace of bitterness in Henson's eyes. He didn't say anything as he passed by Dean.
The others saw that the dialogue between Henson and Dean was a bit strange. They had speculations in their hearts but their faces didn't change.
Dean was sent to the door of the room. He put all the suitcases back into the room. He politely declined them and closed the door. He looked for a pen and paper to draw the design drawings of the lightning rod.
However, just as he was about to start on the draft, another guest came in.
Dean didn't open the door but smelled a familiar smell. He opened the door and saw that it was Rosie who he had met a few days ago. She was wearing a black gauze dress. Her tall figure and low-cut dress made her look extremely sexy. She was full of the charm of a mature woman.
"Mr. Dean." Rosie's eyes lit up as she saw Dean open the door. There was an eager smile on her face: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm here to bother you again."
Dean smiled: "It's good that you know I'm bothering you."
