Chapter 400: The Strongest Worker Candidate, The Camp’s Shock (1)
Zhou Shu sat on the hill, playing with Great Wei’s imperial cauldron.
The small cauldron was half bronze and half blood-red.
This made the imperial cauldron look demonic. Zhou Shu could vaguely smell blood as he played with it.
As a Forging Master, he could feel that Great Wei’s imperial cauldron had been polluted by blood and had lost its original characteristics.
It wasn’t too accurate to say that it had lost its original characteristics. If he had to describe it, it should be like a person who had gone crazy. It couldn’t be considered an imperial cauldron anymore. It might be more appropriate to call it a calamity cauldron.
Emperor Wei Wu is really not worthy of being human. An imperial cauldron was actually polluted to such an extent. He must be mad!
In Zhou Shu’s eyes, Great Wei’s imperial cauldron was half-crippled. Unless he was willing to continue infecting it with blood energy, which meant he would be walking the same path as Emperor Wei Wu, he would have to remove the blood energy from the imperial cauldron.
Neither method was easy to achieve. Zhou Shu couldn’t be bothered to spend too much time and energy on it.
If he had the time, he might as well forge a few more weapons.
Emperor Wei Wu needed to use unorthodox methods to increase his strength. Did Zhou Shu need to do so?
There was no need.
After plotting for so long, Emperor Wei Wu was still easily defeated by him.
With the Legendary Armament Canon, Zhou Shu didn’t need to do much. He just needed to forge obediently.
......
This was why he was so obsessed with miners…
Looking at the nearly 30,000 former Great Wei soldiers in the valley, Zhou Shu felt that there was hope.
“Xiao Jianghe!” Zhou Shu raised his voice. “Be careful when digging. See if there are any other mines nearby.”
“Understood!” Xiao Jianghe said with a cold expression.
This Xiao Jianghe looked ordinary, but his cultivation was not bad. Most importantly, he was a Forging Master!
To be honest, Great Wei had a lot of talented people. Before Xiao Jianghe, out of the people Zhou Shu had met, the forgers with the highest Martial Dao cultivation were Great Wei’s Imperial Preceptor Xiao Shunzhi and Great Qin’s Xu Shi.
Xiao Jianghe was the third first-rank forger he had seen.
There were really many talents in Great Wei.
The more Zhou Shu looked at Xiao Jianghe, the more he liked him. In his heart, Xiao Jianghe had even replaced Wang Xin as the candidate for the strongest worker.
Zhou Shu needed a talent who could mine and kill enemies to earn rewards the most!
For the demonic beast miners, he still had to get people to sort the ore they mined.
But he wouldn’t have this problem with this criminal army.
Xiao Jianghe was a Forging Master himself. He was an expert in digging up and processing forging materials.
Even the forging materials that had already been processed, he sorted them into groups in an orderly manner.
Zhou Shu was already planning. When he returned to the camp, he had to forge a weapon for Xiao Jianghe personally. He couldn’t waste this talent.
And since they didn’t want to call themselves Great Wei soldiers, Zhou Shu didn’t care if they wanted to be known as the criminal army.
But since they had become Zhou Shu’s subordinates, Zhou Shu would definitely change their weapons.
These criminal soldiers were all elite soldiers. In the future, they would definitely go into battle to kill demonic beasts. As workers, they naturally had to be treated like workers.
All 30,000 of them were ranked martial artists!
Zhou Shu even suspected that Emperor Wei Wu had brought all the ranked soldiers of Great Wei.
With such strength, they had already dug up the entire valley in just two days.
Xiao Jianghe came to Zhou Shu’s side and cupped his hands. “Your Highness, we’ve dug the turmeric crystal mine clean.
“There is a total of 93,400 kilograms of turmeric crystal ore. In addition, there’s also 670 kilograms of ink gold.”
Xiao Jianghe’s report was clear. He had even calculated the weights.
Zhou Shu nodded in satisfaction. “Well done. This is your reward.”
Zhou Shu casually threw out something.
Xiao Jianghe subconsciously reached out and grabbed it. He opened his hand and saw that it was a black bangle with dragon patterns engraved on it. It looked very exquisite.
Except he was a man…
“Your Highness, what…” Xiao Jianghe hesitated for a moment. He was really not used to wearing such accessories.
“You don’t want it?” Zhou Shu gave a faint smile. “Aren’t you a Forging Master? Has it been too long since you forged something? Can you not see clearly anymore?”
Xiao Jianghe was stunned as his gaze landed on the bangle.
Raising his eyebrows, he tentatively sent out a stream of spiritual essence.
Buzz—
With a soft sound, a five-foot-square translucent space appeared in front of Xiao Jianghe.
His eyes went wide with disbelief and shock.
“Th-this…” Xiao Jianghe’s voice was trembling, and he couldn’t speak.
“This is a Cosmic Bangle. Other than storing things, it has no other purpose,” Zhou Shu said casually. “There’s not much space. I’ll think of a way to improve it later. Make do with it for now.”
Xiao Jianghe: “…”
Make do with such a divine artifact?
Xiao Jianghe put the Cosmic Bangle on his wrist immediately. Unless his hand was cut off, no one could snatch it away!
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Xiao Jianghe had mixed feelings. He had volunteered to serve under Zhou Shu in order to atone for Great Wei and allow Great Wei to continue existing.
