Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 1222: Consistent in Currying Favor

When Ouyang Lishang used a secret method to engrave patterns on the magical helmet, he had shocked the group of master refiners. Ouyang Lishang had used actual actions to tell them that inheritance was very important if they wanted to refine weapons.

Refining weapons did not simply involve researching materials and using Spirit Qi to achieve resonance. It was like programming. You had to learn computer language before you could speak to the world.

The lines of power on the magical helmet were like a computer program. In Ouyang Lishang’s words, it was a magical symbol.

The professional refiners faced Ouyang Lishang like a group of children facing a university professor. They were helpless and admired him.

Just like what the veteran had said, to many of them, they were obsessed with researching weapon refining techniques. If they were able to learn the truth in the morning, they would not be afraid to die at night. This was very real.

Now, the path they had been chasing was right in front of them, currying favor with Lu Shu…

This feeling was really sour…

The veteran hesitated. He looked at Lu Shu. “I haven’t asked. You are…”

“I’m Lu Shu. You don’t need to be so polite.” Lu Shu smiled. He looked at Ouyang Lishang. “I will hand them over to you. I want them to be able to take up the job in one week. You cannot slow down on refining the helmets. The space pathway might open at any time.”

“Relax.” Ouyang Lishang smiled. “As long as they are not idiots, I will be able to do this.”

The professional refiners, who had been arrogant, suddenly felt that they were being ignored. This young man looked at them as if they were workers in an assembly line…

“Lu Shu? I think I know who he is…” One of the professional refiners was annoyed.

They conducted research with great concentration. Like many scientists who focused on attacks, they did not care about battles. They did not care about which celebrity was the most popular. Their research results were the most important.

But even the researchers in the Heavenly Network had heard of Lu Shu. Even if they did not want to hear of him, someone would tell them about him.

“The Ninth Heavenly King,” the veteran said as he nodded his head. But he could not understand. Who was this person from the bronze lamp? The fabled Aladdin lamp did not look like this. Furthermore, that Lamp God had higher moral principles than the one in front of them…

Once Lu Shu passed on this request, he left. After all, he had many other things to do. He did not have the time to delay Ouyang Lishang either. But the moment he walked away, the professional refiners started to softly chatter. “Where did Lu Shu find this person…”

Ouyang Lishang suddenly roared. “Can you call the Great Lord by his actual name?”

The professional refiners were convinced. They had to catch up to him. Ouyang Lishang sucked up to Lu Shu, when he was around and even when he had left. What if Lu Shu heard of this?

But they could not quite understand. Why did the master refiner Ouyang Lishang seem like Lu Shu’s lackey?

In the past, they had only heard of how amazing the Ninth Heavenly King was. Now, they had truly understood.

There were some things you did not have a concrete impression of until you saw them with your own eyes.

Ouyang Lishang looked at the group of professional refiners. He laughed coldly. “All of you have given up on training for research. How ignorant.”

Some of them could not understand. “We just don’t have time to train.”

“A beard lathered is half shaved. To a master refiner, your strength is your weapon.” Ouyang Lishang laughed coldly. “If you do not have any strength, refining weapons will be worthless. Beginning with today, you must train for four hours every day!”

The professional refiners looked at one another helplessly. Were they going to start training?

“That’s right.” Ouyang Lishang said, “Let me see some of your resources. I don’t think that your research results are amazing. I just want to see how many detours you have taken!”

Ouyang Lishang had been spending the past two days learning about the Earth. No matter how bright he was, he had to learn from the beginning. Recently, he was obsessed. He constantly asked Lu Shu questions, to the point that Lu Shu wanted to give up on him…

There was a reason why Ouyang Lishang was able to become a master refiner. He maintained a strong sense of curiosity towards the world. When he saw a phone, he wanted to conduct research on it. When he saw a television, he wanted to conduct research on it.

He had never sent Lu Shu any messages, but after he went to the laboratory, he had taken apart more than ten phones.

At that moment, not only did the professional refiners come to the Longmen Fortress with their equipment, refining materials from all over the country were being transported over.

Zhong Yutang was very clear that if the Heavenly Network was able to inherit weapon refinery, it would be much more important than their limited resources.

As the current chief manager of the Heavenly Network, Zhong Yutang knew that it was not the time to save money!

Of course, the entire weapon refinery laboratories were tightly protected. In another part of the Longmen Fortress, the construction workers had started to rapidly build a new underground laboratory. Not only did they consider confidentiality, they also considered safety. They wanted to prevent overseas Practitioners from infiltrating the base and stealing the results of their research.

Lu Shu also hoped that Ouyang Lishang would be able to produce the World Tide once again. According to Zhang Weiyu, their techniques complemented the World Tide. Furthermore, to the Imperial Palace Soldiers, facing masters would be completely different if they possessed the World Tide.

But Ouyang Lishang had said that when he had produced the World Tide, the old King of Gods had provided him with unique materials. Ouyang Lishang had confirmed that he had used up all the materials. He had only been able to produce 300 World Tides. Thus, there were only 300 World Tides in the world. There would not be any more in the future.

It was the same for the Armor that Shook Mountains. Lu Shu asked Ouyang Lishang why Duanmu Huangqi recognized the Armor that Shook Mountains. However, Ouyang Lishang was shocked. “Great Lord, do you not remember anything? Back then, you asked me to produce the Armor that Shook Mountains for Duanmu Huangqi. He had always been in charge of infiltration tactics. There were times when he had to go deep into enemy territory. Thus, the Armor that Shook Mountains was created. But after you took back the Armor that Shook Mountains, it disappeared…”

If the Armor that Shook Mountains had been found, where would the World Tide be? Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. Had the old King of Gods hidden it somewhere? It was likely that it was in enemy hands.

If the World Tide was as frightening as Zhang Weiyu had said, then the Wei Wu Army could not be rash.

Two days later, Zhong Yutang looked for Lu Shu. He wanted to see the progress Ouyang Lishang was making. He asked, “How many helmets can they add the communication function to every day?”

Lu Shu thought about it and flashed two fingers. Zhong Yutang was dumbfounded. “2000 per day?”

Lu Shu shook his head. He gestured again.

“200 per day?” Zhong Yutang asked again.

Lu Shu shook his head again. He paused for two seconds. Then, he said, “1001!”

Zhong Yutang was confused.

“From Zhong Yutang’s distress, +666!”
