Ta Tianqing
Chapter 327 Speculations on the Human Race's Experts
This boss is definitely a powerhouse in the Dao of Weapon Forging.
Actually, Lin Chen already had Lei Yin under his command, and his understanding of the Dao of Weapon Forging wasn't low.
But why did Lin Chen still come to the Black Market?
The reason is simple...
The person before him, whether in terms of knowledge or weapon forging skill, was superior to Lei Yin.
Therefore,
Lin Chen definitely had to find him.
After all, his weapon had already been upgraded to the level of Divine-Devil · Chaos Heaven Defect.
What would be next?
What Lin Chen needed was someone who knew the value of goods.
"How is it?" Lin Chen asked.
The boss exclaimed, "To be honest, I have never seen a weapon like this in my life... If you want me to tell you the origin of this weapon, I can't say much. However, based on my experience, this weapon should have an extremely powerful ultimate form!"
"So, it can still be upgraded?"
This was the answer Lin Chen wanted.
"Probably."
The boss didn't dare to touch the weapon. After all, you shouldn't touch other people's weapons carelessly. But this one was different. The weapon gave off a chillingly cold aura. Even without touching it, it was already bone-chilling. What if he touched it?
Then he would have to be prepared to suffer internal injuries from the weapon!
Lin Chen contentedly put away the weapon.
This weapon, which was uncomfortable to even look at, didn't affect Lin Chen at all when he held it.
Next, Lin Chen took out the Xuantian Sand and said, "If you help me upgrade all of this to the sixth rank, is this enough?"
"Enough! But it will take some time."
The boss nodded.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "It's fine, I can wait."
Naturally, he wouldn't mind.
Once you enter the Black Market, you don't have to leave.
You can stay as long as you want.
But the premise is...
You can't just stay on the street or in the alleys without moving.
Begging is even more forbidden.
Doing so will result in being directly chased out by the management.
People like Lin Chen, who upgraded equipment in shops or had long-term business relationships with some shops, wouldn't be chased away by the Black Market administrators.
This was also why Feng Cai Ling had to spend one Brilliant Sacred Crystal every day to wait for Lin Chen.
She was just waiting for someone, so she inevitably had to stay on the street.
When the time was up, she would be asked to leave.
And so, Lin Chen stayed in the boss's shop.
He could even observe the boss's forging techniques from the side... He discovered that the boss's forging techniques were superior to Lei Yin's in terms of frequency. It seemed like this was a different forging method.
Or perhaps a cultivation technique!
So, while the boss was upgrading the equipment hammer by hammer, Lin Chen was thinking about how to recruit him...
Such a weapon forging master was exactly the talent that the human race needed right now.
Of course, this master might not be from the human race.
But what did that matter?
In the universe, the boundaries between races aren't that rigid... At least the human race has this advantage. After all, all races can transform into humans after the third revolution.
There's no reproductive isolation.
As long as you don't revert to your original form, who knows what you are?
Before Bai Suzhen turned into a snake, did Xu Xian not sleep with her?
Furthermore, Lin Chen was now the Human Emperor.
His vision couldn't be as narrow as before.
He had to have a broader perspective.
What was the most important thing for the human race right now?
Survival!
What was the obstacle to survival?
Right now, it was the Brahma Divine Palace and the Brahma Deity.
So, what did the human race need?
What they needed was power!
He could recruit talent without sticking to conventions.
As long as they could help the human race.
As long as they were willing to come, whether they became mercenaries for the human race, or if strong gods like the boss, especially those with skills, were willing to establish a contract with the Fengshen Bang (Investiture of the Gods) and coexist with the human race, then that would be even better!
The treatment definitely had to be sufficient.
But the key was...
Would they be willing?
Lin Chen thought about it. Why not take advantage of the fact that the human race was currently accumulating and increasing its strength, while the Brahma Deity was also making preparations, and simply come forward himself to hold a human race recruitment event...
To see if he could recruit some powerhouses at the fourth revolution or higher.
This plan wasn't infeasible.
Because currently, the Eastern Divine-Devil Battlefield was closed. Those races that previously followed the Brahma Divine Palace had no base outside the battlefield, so they could only continue to stay on the battlefield.
Among those families, there were Weak Gods or Strong God level powerhouses.
Currently, these powerhouses were in a state of being unowned.
Because when Lin Chen had the human race continue to recruit mercenaries, they could only recruit those below the fourth revolution.
Long Yandao and the others had only just become gods, and they couldn't control the soul seas of those powerhouses!
Another thing was...
From the three Demon Lords, Qisha, Tanlang, and Pojun, Lin Chen learned that during the great calamity of the human race in the Middle Ages, it wasn't that there were no human race powerhouses. It was just that in order to avoid that calamity, those human race god-level powerhouses had all chosen to join other forces.
The Demon Race had three Demon Lords.
Could there be more?
Could these three Demon Lords return to the human race?
Even the Demon Race had human race god-level powerhouses joining, then... what about the Ten Thousand Year Old Schemer Alliance of the Heavenly Dao on the battlefield?
The human race had just experienced a calamity, the Heavenly Palace had just been destroyed, the Heavenly Emperor Zeus had just established the Divine Palace system, and then the Heavenly Dao Alliance appeared and used anti-Heavenly Emperor as its slogan, then...
Could the Heavenly Dao Alliance have something to do with the human race?
At the very least, were there some human race powerhouses inside?
Thinking of this, Lin Chen thought of a person...
Lei Hong!
The Lei Hong he had killed when he first came to the Divine-Devil Battlefield!
This guy seemed to be a human, right?
Even when Lin Chen was about to kill him, he didn't reveal his original form... At the time, Lin Chen didn't pay attention to this, but now that he thought about it, it seemed a bit suspicious.
But on second thought, if Lei Hong was a human and his strength was in the newly advanced Heavenly God realm, then why would he plot against the human race?
Thinking of this, Lin Chen's eyes turned cold.
Because he knew that the current human race could only rely on themselves.
Even those three Demon Lords might no longer be human.
If Lin Chen started recruiting heroes from all sides to join the human race, he also had to be careful of some spies and traitors... But so what?
At the very least, before the Brahma Deity was destroyed, all of those who could be recruited would be combat power for the human race!
He just had to screen them more thoroughly during the Fengshen (Investiture of the Gods).
While Lin Chen was lost in thought, the boss completed the forging process, which took three days and three nights.
Then he told Lin Chen, "At most, I can reach the fifth rank. I can't go any higher than the sixth rank... It seems my level isn't high enough yet... This equipment is really powerful! Perhaps, only my mentor could continue to upgrade this equipment!"
He couldn't reach the sixth rank?
Lin Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Who is your mentor?"
"The God of Smelting!"
Boom!
The boss uttered a name that shocked even Lin Chen!
I just went to take care of something and got it done.
I'll continue writing and notify the reader group when I'm done updating.
So I don't get scolded if I write it here and suddenly get delayed for a while.
