Chapter 385: Compromise of the Demon Realm, Earth-Grade Great Destroyer Sword (2)
“No problem.” Zhou Shu smiled. “Think about it. There are hundreds of thousands of troops from the Demon Realm in this world. If we don’t give them something to do, won’t they keep thinking about how to attack us and save Yao Lian?
“Yao Buqi doesn’t have the guts. He’ll be a good supervisor.”
Zhou Shu’s reason was justifiable. But no matter how Yin Wuyou thought about it, she felt that he simply wanted to gather forging materials…
Ten million kilograms of forging materials…
Yin Wuyou, the grand minister of the Forging Division, felt a little dizzy just thinking about it.
Even she found that number astronomical.
She was actually feeling confused. Wasn’t this the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?
They were clearly enemies, but why did it feel like something was wrong?
Yin Wuyou felt a little amused when she thought of the hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts waving their sharp claws and digging open the mineral mines before carrying huge rocks on their backs.
She scrunched up her face and wondered if she should laugh.
Meng Bai, Wang Mu, Tang Chengshi, and Cao Chenyang also had mixed feelings.
They were still trying to figure out how to counterattack the Demon Realm army when…
The King of the South, Side-by-side King, and Country Protector King had already sent a million demonic beasts to help him mine.
......
Even though they were knowledgeable, they felt a strong sense of separation now.
“Everyone, don’t just stand there.” Zhou Shu turned to look at Meng Bai and the others. “Making them mine is only temporary. It won’t last long. Make a killing—” Zhou Shu almost blurted out.
He coughed lightly. “While they’re mining, generals, you must gather the remaining troops of the various nations.
“It’s unlikely for this to happen again. The next time, the Demon Realm army might not be so obedient,” Zhou Shu said seriously.
After all, mining didn’t involve the life and death of the Demon Realm army. Therefore, in order to exchange for Yao Lian, they would definitely try anything once.
But next time, even if he captured Yao Lian again, it might not be so simple.
Meng Bai, Wang Mu, and the others came back to their senses and smiled bitterly.
It was indeed a good opportunity.
The Demon Realm army had already gone to mine. How could they have time to attack the remaining human troops?
…
In the Demon Realm army camp, Yao Buqi didn’t take a single step back when facing so many first-rank demonic beasts.
“You want our million-strong army to dig stones for the humans?” a first-rank demonic beast said angrily.
“This is too much!” The aura of the first-rank demonic beast exploded, and the limestone under his feet exploded into dust.
“No!” Yao Buqi was not afraid at all.?I’m also a first-rank martial artist. I’m not afraid of you!
Besides, in terms of background, I’m not lower than anyone…
“It’s not to dig stones for the humans, but for the sake of Lord Yao Lian,” Yao Buqi said eloquently. “There’s a saying in the human race that it’s never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
“I think it makes sense. It’s just ten million kilograms of ore. It’s nothing to us. Why not use it to save Lord Yao Lian?
“Besides, without Lord Yao Lian, who among you would be a match for that human?” Yao Buqi pointed at the first-rank demonic beasts.
“Hmph! Although he’s strong, he might not be stronger than us when we combine forces,” a first-rank demonic beast said with an ugly expression. “With an army of a million, I don’t believe he can hold us off!”
“He may not be able to hold us off, but how many of you will survive?” Yao Buqi sneered.
“But even if we save Lord Yao Lian, he’s already lost…” another first-rank demonic beast said.
“If you have the ability, say that again in front of Lord Yao Lian.” Yao Buqi sneered.
All the first-rank demonic beasts fell silent.
After a long while, a first-rank demonic beast slowly said, “Lord Yao Lian must be saved.
“But we can’t just simply give the humans what they want either.
“He wants ore, doesn’t he? We’ll give it to him! But not so readily!
“With the strength of our Demon Realm army, we can gather ten million kilograms of ore in a few days. However, we will delay it for a few months before giving it to them!”
“What’s the point?” Yao Buqi frowned.
“Hmph, the lords of the Demon Realm are thinking of a way to crack the barrier of this world. If this drags on for a few months, other lords might descend.” A first-rank demonic beast sneered. “At that time, no matter how capable the human race is, they can forget about overturning the heavens!”
Yao Buqi glanced at the first-rank demonic beast and sneered in his heart.
You’re thinking too much, aren’t you?
You don’t know how abnormal that human is. Even if another lord descends, will he be able to defeat that human?
If things go wrong, he might end up like Lord Yao Lian…
“I have no objections to stalling for time,” Yao Buqi said. “But it will be hard to explain why it takes a few months to gather the ore. Besides, Lord Yao Lian will be the one to suffer.
“A month. A month at the most. Ten million kilograms of ore must be handed over, or I fear they will abuse Lord Yao Lian.”
All the first-rank demonic beasts frowned, but in the end, they nodded.
“Everyone, I’ll leave the mining to you. I’ll go back and deal with that human now. Don’t worry. With me around, I definitely won’t let Lord Yao Lian be bullied!” Yao Buqi had a self-sacrificial look on his face.
“It’ll be hard on you.” All the demonic beasts looked at him in admiration. It wasn’t easy to endure such humiliation.
…
In the forging room of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch, everyone was in high spirits.
Li Chengliang and the other forgers sat around like primary school students, staring unblinkingly at Zhou Shu in the middle of the room.
Only Shi Songtao looked unhappy. This was his privilege as the deputy pavilion master in the past. Now, these people were actually enjoying the same benefits as him!
In the middle of the room, Zhou Shu was upgrading his weapon.
“Upgrading weapons isn’t as difficult as you think.” Zhou Shu’s hands were like fire as he slowly spoke. “As long as you have confidence, it’s easy to upgrade weapons.”
The black-grade Great Destroyer Sword gradually turned red in his hand, as if it was about to melt.
The divine ability Total Annihilation had already reached perfection. If the black-grade Great Destroyer Sword completed any more kills, Total Annihilation would no longer improve. At most, it would bring Zhou Shu some spiritual essence feedback.
Therefore, Zhou Shu put its upgrade on the agenda.
If the Great Destroyer Sword could be upgraded to earth grade, it might be able to support Zhou Shu’s usage.
Otherwise, with Zhou Shu’s current strength, black and yellow-grade weapons wouldn’t be able to withstand the impact of his strength.
Even if it was earth grade, it would barely be able to withstand it.
Although there were many forging materials in the camp now, there were still insufficient types. For the time being, he couldn’t forge heaven-grade weapons.
The earth-grade Great Destroyer Sword would make do for a while.
As the forgers listened to Zhou Shu’s explanation, they all felt enlightened. Even Li Chengliang benefited greatly.
There were only these ten or so forgers in the camp now. In the next two years, he would have to count on them to support the camp’s forging. Zhou Shu alone was unable to supply the weapons needed for tens of thousands of troops. He didn’t hold back and explained in detail the characteristics and matching techniques of the various forging materials.
Lost in the forging, time flew by…
Although the appearance of the Great Destroyer Sword in Zhou Shu’s hand had not changed, various forging materials had fused into it. In the eyes of the forgers, it had already been reborn!
Zhou Shu’s hands had never stopped since the beginning. Even when he set the star paths, he did it smoothly.
Buzz—
The Great Destroyer Sword shone brightly, and all the forgers stopped breathing.
It was done!
Upgrading a black-grade weapon to an earth-grade weapon, the King of the South had created another miracle!
Everyone had the same thought. Could it be that in the near future, they would be able to see a yellow-grade weapon upgrade step by step to become a heaven-grade weapon?
“It’s finally earth grade. It wasn’t easy.” Zhou Shu stroked the Great Destroyer Sword and sighed.
Everyone couldn’t help rolling their eyes.?It wasn’t easy? It seemed so easy for you…
“The Great Destroyer Sword is number one in the Black-grade Armament Manual. It’s now earth grade. What do you think its ranking will be now?” Li Chengliang whispered.
