After Yue Yang obtained the priceless Thunder Diamond, he did three things to raise his reputation to the peak.
The first was to make a uniform for all the hard laborers.
Although this uniform was not worth much, and the clothes of thousands of people added together would not even be enough to make a dragon leather armor for Yue Yang, it represented the master's recognition and reward. For some talented old miners, they could even embroider a golden border on their clothes. Once they got their hands on the red clothes and gold-rimmed uniforms, all the slaves started wailing uncontrollably. Yue Yang was the first master to make clothes for the slaves in the hundreds of years of the Thunder Fortress!
The second thing was to give the slaves names.
This was also the first time.
Many of the slaves didn't have names. Of course, they had nicknames or some form of address, but they never had real names.
When the butler Yan Zheng announced that the benevolent master, Mr. Titan, allowed everyone to have a name, and everyone could come and register after thinking of a name … At this moment, all the slaves were trembling.
Although they didn't know their own names, when they saw their names appearing for the first time in the book in Yan Zheng's hands, they all felt like they had been reborn as human beings. In fact, in the eyes of the slave masters, they were just living mining tools. All the mine masters treated them as tools, regardless of whether they were dead or alive. Even the commoners who originally had names, but were captured and brought here, had long forgotten everything in their long mining lives … Until today, when Yue Yang allowed them to have a name, they then realized that their master had given them a name that was equivalent to life, an identity that was equivalent to life.
With this identity, they were different from the others.
With a name, they could be considered as real living beings, and not those mining tools that were forgotten by the world, existences that were like ants.
Many of them didn't have names, so the butler Yan Zheng had to give them one.
At the same time, they were given a serial number.
If it was a free commoner, he would definitely feel humiliated and oppressed, because this serial number was the most obvious part of the clothes, just like the mark on a donkey's butt. This was a special mark that belonged to the master.
But the slaves liked it very much, very much.
What they were most afraid of was that their benevolent master, the Titan, would abandon them. They were afraid that they would be abandoned by their master and once again be reduced to mining ants in the Underground City.
The third thing that Yue Yang did was to give the old slave a name and a puppet beast.
The old slave was given the name Pi Ping.
This was the bad taste of the guy from another world. Of course, nobody knew about it.
This Puppet Beast was specially made by Yue Yang. Although he had made it casually and it was relatively simple, Yue Yang's ability to make puppets was extremely strong. He had casually made a Bronze-ranked Level 2 puppet. However, it did not have any combat power and could only be used as a means of transportation and mining … This reward had caused a wave of praises from the slaves that made them have goosebumps all over their bodies. There was no need to advertise, no need to explain. Now, all the slave labourers were relieved. As long as they worked hard, they would definitely be liked and rewarded by their master … Everyone hoped that they could be like 'Old Pi Ping', who was personally given a name by their master, and obtain a newbie puppet beast created by their master.
None of them dared to say it, but all of them were working towards this goal.
That was a unique reward.
It could even be said that it was the highest honour.
The thing that made the slave labourers most excited was that Yan Zheng the butler announced that if anyone could make outstanding contributions to their master, they would have the opportunity to have an audience with their master. Every year, ten people would be selected. Being bestowed a name, a beast and the right to have an audience with their master had become the greatest desire of the slave labourers.
While the slaves were working crazily for the sake of glory, those slaves who had betrayed and left deeply regretted it.
No one would have thought that the new master, Titan, would not only not kill the rebellious slaves, he would also treat them so generously.
Salary, bonuses, uniforms, and all kinds of glory, it simply made people jealous.
Not to mention the slaves, even the patrolling guards in the Underground City could not hide the envy in their eyes when they talked about the changes in the West Wind Pit.
Who wouldn't be willing to follow such a master?
Look at that damned Fatty from the Toad Clan. In the past, he was simply a lowly and pitiful worm. Now, he was arrogant, walking with his head held high and his stomach bulging out, swaggering around. Even the Elite Team Leader, Bao Gu, had to call him 'Mr Wei' in a friendly manner when he saw him. If it was in the past, he would not even look at the Toad Merchant from the corner of his eyes. Calling him Fatty or Stinky Toad was already giving him a lot of face.
The gladiators in the arena now behaved like obedient children.
It was said that Titan's master wanted to inspect them. If they wanted to live a good life, they had to meet the master's requirements … In the end, the gladiators who fought non-stop every day hugged their companions ten times a day. Especially their enemies, they would smile brightly and shake hands again and again.
Everyone hoped that their companions would not do anything stupid during their master's inspection. Otherwise, everyone's efforts would be wasted.
Those who took the money and left became the target of ridicule.
There was no medicine for regret in this world. Those who had betrayed and become the subordinates of others were even worried that if Mr Titan were to pursue the matter, they would really die.
Although Titan treated his subordinates well, it did not mean that he was easy to bully. Look at Nightmare and Tiger Nian, the two Innates were killed just like that. Furthermore, did Master Titan even need to fight now? As long as he gave the order, the gladiators, who were like hungry wolves, would rush forward to fight for the best performance … In the Underground City now, the most famous person was not the Underground City Master "Ancient Beast" Ma Long, but Master Titan! If there was anyone who dared to say that he did not know Master Titan, he would definitely be blind and deaf. This kind of idiot who wasted rice might even be beaten up by others.
"Master, City Master Ma Long has sent an envoy over …" Jia De had also followed Old Pi Ping's way of addressing him as Master. The way he addressed him as Master was even more impressive, it sounded like he was the owner of the place!
"Go and settle it, don't bother me." Yue Yang was thinking about how to deal with the Thunder Diamond.
This was a good treasure for fusing and upgrading weapons. If it was given to Xue Wuxia, it would be a great help to her.
However, Xue Wuxia was not by his side. Furthermore, there was no need to worry about Zhi Zun not having any treasures. This Thunder Diamond should be used by himself first. After all, Yue Yang could use it to upgrade his weapons.
The Crescent Moon and Hui Jin Magic Ash could both be fused with the Thunder Diamond.
With it, other than his own Yang Fire Ability and Yin Ice Ability, his weapons would also have an additional Lightning Attribute. If he managed to slash it, his enemies would probably feel good for a long time. Even if they did not die, they would still remember it for the rest of their lives. The Crescent Moon was only Gold-ranked. It was enough for him to use in the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower, but it might be weaker if he went higher. The Hui Jin Magic Blade was currently Platinum-ranked, but because it had two spirits, it could definitely reach Diamond-ranked in the future. Furthermore, the two spirits of the Hui Jin Magic Blade were very powerful. Although they were Platinum-ranked, they were definitely the best Platinum-ranked and were close to being Holy-ranked … The Thunder Diamond seemed to be a little weak when fusing with the Hui Jin Magic Blade because it did not have a spirit. Yue Yang had always wanted to add a new spirit to balance it out and increase the Hui Jin Magic Blade's power to the maximum.
The Thunder Diamond was a little wasted when fusing with the Crescent Moon.
Its quality was extremely good. A natural Thunder Diamond could only be formed after millions and millions of years.
After fusing with the Thunder Diamond, the Crescent Moon would probably be Platinum-ranked at most. It would probably be a little difficult for it to reach Diamond-ranked, unless Yue Yang could obtain a legendary Martial Spirit and put it in the Crescent Moon, turning it into a treasure with a consciousness …
"Forget it, there will always be better treasures in the future." Yue Yang decided to level up the Crescent Moon first. At most, he would go to the Heaven Realm to hunt for treasures.
The Crescent Moon had the Ancient Rune 'Everlasting' and the Heaven Rune 'Frost' and 'Sharpness'. To a normal weaponsmith, even a dwarf blacksmith, it was an existence that could not be reforged. If one wanted to embed a Thunder Diamond on the Crescent Moon, it would be hard to achieve even if one used all the methods in the world. Other than Yue Yang's [Nirvana Flame].
Yue Yang spent a long time, and finally succeeded in embedding the Thunder Diamond into the Crescent Moon when he was so tired that his limbs were weak.
Lightning flashed on the blade as it glided.
A crackling sound could be heard.
The coldness of the Ice Frost was several times colder than before, and the sharp edge of the blade seemed to be able to cut the space apart.
When the [Nirvana Flame] in Yue Yang's hands gradually stopped reforging, the Crescent Moon seemed to have developed a spirit of its own. It hummed loudly, as if it was cheering for levelling up.
The current Crescent Moon had successfully levelled up to Platinum-ranked. Furthermore, it was not a normal Platinum-ranked weapon, but a top-grade Platinum-ranked weapon. Although it did not have two great weapon spirits like the Hui Jin Magic Blade, it seemed to have developed a tiny bit of consciousness … This made Yue Yang very puzzled. He did not understand how this weapon spirit was born, but he did not dare to use his Innate Qi to investigate it. This was because Yue Yang was afraid that his [Devour] Inherent Skill and Innate Qi would destroy that tiny sprout of consciousness.
He decided to wait for that strand of consciousness to grow first before slowly exploring it.
Should he find a chance to ask Zhi Zun?
Regarding the knowledge of weapon spirits, Yue Yang had learned a lot from the pitiful guy's mother's inheritance. However, there were no relevant records regarding the birth of consciousness in weapons. Maybe it was because Yue Yang had not completely digested it, that was why he did not understand this aspect of knowledge.
"Hissing Whistle!"
Yue Yang raised the Crescent Moon that had just levelled up to Platinum-ranked. With a thought, he wanted to test its new power.
He casually slashed at the wall.
That sturdy stone wall was like a knife cutting through tofu. It didn't take any effort at all as it pierced through the wall … The most ridiculous thing was that when Yue Yang retracted his Crescent Moon Blade, he realized that the stone wall that was more than ten metres thick had been completely pierced through by the Innate Qi blade. A bolt of lightning shot out thirty metres away and hit a Ghost Bat that was hovering in the sky.
The Ghost Bat that was flying at an extremely fast speed was instantly turned into ashes.
Its size remained the same.
In an instant, it collapsed and turned into ashes …
When Jia De heard the commotion, he thought that there was an assassin and rushed in. When he saw the Crescent Moon in Yue Yang's hands, he could not help but shiver in fear. When he saw the long and narrow crack on the wall, his legs immediately weakened and he fell to the ground.
"Get someone to mend the wall." Yue Yang casually ordered.
"Yes." Jia De finally reacted and replied loudly.
When Yue Yang left, he swallowed his saliva and stretched out his hand to pluck up his courage to touch the crack on the wall. He still could not believe it. Who knew that there was still a bolt of lightning left on the wall, causing his fat hand to feel as if it was bitten by a monster. Jia De shouted "Oh my god" and crawled out of the room.
When night fell, not only did Jia De order someone to mend the wall, he even looked for Yue Yang and bowed respectfully. "Master, the half-elves have arrived, please go and inspect the goods."
Yue Yang was slightly stunned. Did this fellow really care about it?
He was just finding an excuse previously.
Forget it, he was just pretending to be a master. If he did not even accept a half-elven female slave, people might even suspect that he was incompetent. This kind of master was not good enough.
He waved his hands. "I know, you can leave now. Oh right, you will accompany me to the auction tomorrow … "
When Jia De heard that there was a door, he immediately bowed and left excitedly. "Yes, yes."
Normally, Yue Yang would definitely return to the Grimoire World. However, today, he thought about it and walked towards the bedroom.
He reckoned that there would be a half-elven female slave waiting for him there.
To see what a half-elven looked like … Of course, Yue Yang said that he was just curious. He would not admit to the temptation of a child's face and big breasts.
