"I'll be responsible for this life core."
"Master Tang, this is the most difficult part. Are you going to do it alone?" Master Gui Xuan never doubted that Tang Shidao was hiding something.
If he wanted to hide it, he wouldn't have shared the technology.
Everyone had read the information.
It was already clear which part was difficult and which part was easy.
"Master Gui Xuan, according to what I've learned, I think I'm the best at this part. So, I want to study this part too. "Tang Shidao didn't mention Nirvana Rebirth. Everyone understood. Everyone knew that this number one Grandmaster had made a rebirth type regenerative magical artifact, so it was reasonable for him to be good at this part.
"Well, it's good that you're good at it. It makes up for our shortcomings. Everyone, work hard and strive to create this miracle of repairing the ancient golem in three months. "Master Gui Xuan encouraged.
Everyone shouted in response, full of fighting spirit.
Tang Shidao sent the craftsmen away and immediately entered a state of research. Although he copied the known information about the ancient golem, it was only to the extent of 'translation'. Translation didn't mean understanding, understanding didn't mean learning, and learning didn't mean proficiency. If understanding could be done well, then there would be no apprentices in the crafting world. Everyone was an iron master.
Strictly speaking.
Master Gui Xuan and the other seniors weren't inferior to him in terms of skill, but because they didn't know Life Weave. He only took advantage of the translation.
In terms of actual crafting, he might not be better than them.
Not long after.
The elder representative of the Supreme Light Palace came and brought the relevant information about the void rift. "Master Tang, this is the information about the void rift of the Light Spirit Continent, the places that need the Great Cloud Disaster Technique the most. We've investigated inside and outside the rift and listed the places that need it the most. We know you're not free now, so we can arrange another time. "
Tang Shidao looked at it and put it down.
He slowly handed the information back and shook his head. "Elder, let's do it again. It's definitely not appropriate to use Stone Rain Disaster Cloud on all the rifts. Magical energy shields have different effects. How can the same cloud be used? I know you're thinking for me and don't want to expose too much of the Cloud Disaster Technique. Actually, there's no need for this. I'm not going to use a big curse as a life-saving trump card.
The elder representative was stunned. "Master Tang, Master Ni has always wanted to kill you. They must have a way to study the Calamity Cloud. If you use too many types, it will be very disadvantageous for you. "
Tang Shidao smiled. "It's alright, Elder. Since I've decided to do this, I must have my reasons. You don't have to worry about me. Being cautious was a good quality that the strong needed, but being cowardly was not. Also, I don't have to sit in meditation to research and repair it. I just have to hold the Primordial Golem's life core. That's why I need you to reset it as soon as possible. I can study it while releasing the Calamity Cloud. "
The Elder Representative was silent for a long while before he spoke, "Since Grandmaster Tang said so, I'll go back and report to the Elder Council. If you change your mind … "
Tang Shidao only shook his head slightly, and the elder representative did not say anything else.
He turned around.
He quickly left the workshop.
At this moment, Supreme Jin and a group of material merchants entered.
After handing over the list of artifacts they needed, the merchant representative stepped forward and said, "Master Tang, these are the things we need the most. You can make them when you have time. We don't dare to trouble you now. In addition, we have jointly purchased the remains of a hundred Ancient Demonic Statues as a gift for you. We still have some on hand. If Grandmaster Tang wants them, you can exchange them with some rechargeable artifacts. We'll only leave them for you. "
Tang Shidao nodded and did not reject the merchants' good intentions.
Hearing that they were leaving some for exchange, Tang Shidao was even more satisfied with their attitude. On the Sorcerer's Web, everyone was used to imitating the scarecrow: no matter what kind of friendship, a deal was a deal. Using a favor to make things difficult for a friend was worse than using an enemy. Therefore, the more familiar a person was, the more they had to draw the line. The merchants understood this very well.
It would be wrong to say that there was no true friendship on the Sorcerer's Web.
After all, mages existed in two different planes of existence. It was very irresponsible to say that you 'owed' something. It was possible to die while doing a mission. Therefore, if they could repay a debt, they would do so immediately.
Seeing Tang Shidao nod, the merchant representative said, "Grandmaster Tang, other than the artifacts you've rewarded us with, we'll take all the other rechargeable artifacts. The price can also be five percent higher than the market price."
"Terms?" Tang Shidao asked.
"If we unfortunately die, we hope that Grandmaster Tang can resurrect us. Of course, we don't dare to think about our lifespan being exhausted or dying without a trace. We don't dare to trouble you in places that are too dangerous. It's just some accidental deaths. We hope that Grandmaster Tang can provide some protection. "The merchant representative said. The other merchants also saluted together.
"Five percent higher than the market price. That's a very high price."
"We're just small fries. We're lucky to have Grandmaster Tang deign to befriend us. One-twentieth of the profit can save our lives. It's very worth it. "
"Alright, I agree." Tang Shidao nodded. Mages were originally people who had traveled through thousands of worlds. This kind of condition did not affect them at all.
"Thank you, Grandmaster Tang. Please let us know if you need anything in the future. Even if we don't have the goods on hand, we're still experts at gathering information. Well then, we won't disturb you any further. We look forward to Grandmaster Tang's work. "The merchants once again saluted and left after leaving behind a list of names.
Supreme Jin was very surprised when he heard this.
The merchants giving up five percent of the profit was indeed a little too much. In the world of weapon refinement, Iron Sect was only at this level. Although he knew that the merchants valued the title of 'Number One Grandmaster' more, he was afraid that giving up the profit this time was a little too much. It might cause a small disturbance.
The next day.
As Supreme Jin expected, there were some bad rumors in the city. Some people secretly said that Tang Shidao 'coerced' the merchants to buy goods at a high price.
When he heard this, the owner of Bronze Stone Hammer immediately rushed over to inquire. He was the owner of a weapon refinement workshop. He was both a craftsman and a merchant. Reputation came first, and skill came second. If Tang Shidao really did that, even a rechargeable weapon refinement master would not be able to do it.
Tang Shidao smiled. "Owner, am I short of money?"
Bronze Stone Hammer was stunned. "Of course not."
"Am I short of materials?"
"Not at all."
"That's right. Why would I coerce the merchants? Go do your work. If they want to talk, let them talk. "Tang Shidao expressed that others were giving him money and materials. Why would he need to coerce them?
Bronze Stone Hammer thought about it and knew that someone was playing tricks. However, after confirming that Tang Shidao did not ask for anything, he did not care anymore.
Soon.
The rumors turned into a second version: Tang Shidao used some fake technology to deceive the merchants and cheat them of their profits.
This time.
Before the owner of Bronze Stone Hammer could speak, the merchants jumped out to explain first. They said that Tang Shidao did not ask for any profits. Instead, they deliberately gave away 5% of the profits for safety reasons. This explanation seemed to add fuel to the fire. The rumors were no longer directed at Tang Shidao, but at the merchants. Some people pointed at their noses and said, "Are you stupid?" Who doesn't know the resurrection spell? Any Light Spirit Guard wearing arcanite armor on the Light Spirit Continent knows it. Is there a need to give money to the number one Master?
In fact, if they were mages, there was nothing wrong with having a mage as a friend.
They were just ordinary merchants, mages outside the network, and some of them were even magic apprentices with low standards.
It was not in the merchants' interest to give away so much profit when their identities were so far apart.
Tang Shidao was also puzzled when he heard this.
He asked someone to invite Supreme Jin over for a chat. Supreme Jin quickly came over and explained, "Master Tang, this is not strange. Those merchants gave away too much profit. It's normal for other merchants to have opinions. Maybe this was ordered by the mages behind them, or maybe their original world is not safe enough and they need your protection. Anyway, others may not understand. "
Tang Shidao asked again, "Could it be that the Inverse Mage is up to something?"
Supreme Jin smiled. "It's possible, but not certain. Mages on the Web of Wizards are generally not enemies, but they are not necessarily friends either. Some mages are born to dislike each other. For example, there are many mages on the Web of Wizards who dislike me. You know me too well, so they have a bad impression of you. Those merchants also have competitors and business enemies. It's normal for them to be discredited. "
Hearing this, Tang Shidao did not care anymore.
Unexpectedly.
The next day, the matter became more intense. More people mocked those merchants and vaguely mentioned Tang Shidao's' fraud '. They thought that Tang Shidao played those merchants for fools. Perhaps the matter was too sudden. An elder representative of the Supreme Hall of Light rushed over and asked Tang Shidao if he wanted to give a public speech to explain. They could arrange a place.
The Supreme Hall of Light generally did not interfere in business affairs, so they could not forcibly interfere. They could only help to convey the news to the citizens.
Tang Shidao had already sensed that something was amiss.
He shook his head and rejected the elder's kindness.
For a few days.
This matter became more and more lively. In addition to mocking those merchants, it seemed that they also wanted to hit Tang Shidao hard in terms of 'character'. A merchant representative named 'Shang Hong' came over to apologize. He said that he did not expect the matter to be so big. The matter of giving away profits had been settled. If he took it back, it would be even more controversial. He could not do anything for the time being.
Tang Shidao only said, "Mr. Shang Hong, I would like to trouble you to help me find some information."
Shang Hong nodded. "Those rumor-mongers? I've already found out … "
Tang Shidao waved his hand and interrupted, "No, help me find out if Red King is still here, and then find out what materials those rumor-mongers are buying. I'm worried that they are not targeting me, but the matter of repairing the Ancient Golem. "
"Master Tang, the merchants do not dare to offend Master Gui Xuan and his group."
"That's not necessarily true. What if the materials suitable for repairing the Ancient Golem are 'robbed'? Then it's none of the merchants' business, right? I don't want to doubt them, but for the merchants, this is definitely an opportunity to make a fortune. We need a lot of repair materials. If we succeed, the demand will be even greater. "
"Okay, we'll do it right away." Shang Hong was also a merchant. How could he not understand business methods?
Those people rushed to buy materials, then pretended to be robbed, and finally raised the price.
Who didn't know this method?
After all, Gui Xuan and the others were just refiners, which was only one profession in the Mage Network. There were also alchemists, scroll masters, and other technical experts. What's more, some people only used force to do things and did not care about technical matters. For example, the Flame Demon merchants of the Abyss, do you think they would talk about righteousness with Master Gui Xuan?
"Wait a minute." Tang Shidao stopped Shang Hong.
"Master Tang, what other orders do you have?"
"You guys have been ridiculed miserably these days. Help me spread a message. Say: The number one master knows the 'Hell's Ferry' spell. "
"Okay. This … Hell's Ferry or what spell? "
"That's the main point. You must help me keep an eye on anyone who hears the name of this spell. Try your best to inquire about it. Anyone who knows this spell will help me write it down. "Tang Shidao said solemnly. He was sure that no one knew about this spell. Evil Eye, one of the Seven Heroes of Reverse Sorcerer, did not tell anyone.
In theory.
No one knew about this spell … unless they were also the Seven Heroes of Reverse Sorcerer. Evil Eye's best friend could guess. In short, no matter who knew, it was 100% related to Evil Eye. Tang Shidao suspected that there was another move in the assassination. Because he did not participate in the finals of the Armor Tournament, they could not do it.
Now.
They were still staring at him, still staring at the light talisman of the Monk Secret Manual.
After Shang Hong left.
"Xiao Jin."
"I'm here, master."
"You become me, I'll become you and go out."
