Novel Full Chapter 672: Military Artifactory Headquarters Director, Su Yuan
Xie Tingfeng nodded and followed Su Yuan into the Seven Stars Residence.
The two arrived at the edge of the island in the lake and sat down in a long pavilion.
“Third Speaker, what important matter brings you here in person?”
Su Yuan asked curiously.
This was also his first time meeting Xie Tingfeng in the real world. Without that majestic presence he had in the starry sky, he looked rather ordinary.
Xie Tingfeng smiled slightly. Just as he was about to say something, his gaze suddenly locked onto a little girl in the lake. She was sitting at the edge of a lotus leaf, splashing the water with her tiny feet, playing with a Chaos spirit fish in the lake.
Vaguely, he sensed that this child was extraordinary, but when he looked more carefully, she was just an ordinary Tenth-Rank Chaos Dominator.
“Speaker Xie?” Su Yuan called out.
Xie Tingfeng snapped back to attention and said, “What is that child to you?”
“She’s my daughter,” Su Yuan said.
“Oh, so she’s Master Seven Stars’ daughter. She exudes natural spirituality and has extraordinary potential.”
“Thank you for the compliment, Speaker Xie!” Su Yuan nodded with a smile.
Xie Tingfeng withdrew his gaze and said, “I came here personally for two reasons. First, to personally thank you for your contributions to the Second Frontline. You single-handedly filled the military’s logistics gap – this can be called a monumental achievement!”
Su Yuan humbly said, “This was just a transaction. I also obtained Chaos Jades and Merit Points, so I’ve already gained a lot!”
Xie Tingfeng laughed. “You don’t need to be modest. No one can erase your contributions. I’ve specially applied for an important position for you – the Director of the Military Artifactory Headquarters. It’s one rank higher than your Senior Logistics Supervisor. You’ll oversee all artifice affairs across the entire military camp and can allocate logistics resources for forging, research, talent recruitment, and more.”
Su Yuan was stunned. “Shouldn’t this position be very busy?”
“Not at all!”
Xie Tingfeng waved his hand. “You’re the highest authority in there. You can delegate all the work to your subordinates! As long as you complete the basic tasks assigned by the military camp! With your abilities, completing these tasks will be a breeze! And the benefits you’ll receive are enormous. You can draw resources freely, so you won’t have to go through the trouble of opening a shop to collect resources anymore! The military camp oversees countless mines and resources!”
Su Yuan thought about it. A great person hides in the court. Taking an important position in the military camp would not only allow him to obtain resources but also forge more Dominator Artifacts. This position was indeed suitable for him.
So he said, “Thank you for your recommendation, Speaker Xie. Please continue to look after me in the future!”
“Haha, it’s nothing!”
Xie Tingfeng showed a smile, very satisfied with Su Yuan’s decision.
The serious discussion concluded.
Xie Tingfeng looked toward the lake again.
Dozens of spirit fish swam in the lake, making it seem quite spacious.
His attention once again fell on that little girl.
Su Lian also looked over curiously.
Xie Tingfeng finally realized what felt off about this child.
“Eh, the lotus clothes your daughter is wearing seem to have a rather high grade?”
Xie Tingfeng asked in astonishment.
Su Yuan hesitated for a moment before saying, “That’s a Seventy-Two Rank Divine-Grade Dominator Artifact!”
Upon hearing this, Xie Tingfeng’s eyes widened. “A Seventy-Two Rank Dominator Artifact? And Divine-Grade? Did you forge this?”
“Not exactly,” Su Yuan shook his head. “It’s a naturally born Dominator Artifact.”
Xie Tingfeng was startled at first, then sighed in relief, followed by regret. “I thought you could already forge Seventy-Two Rank Dominator Artifacts. What a pity.”
Su Yuan asked in confusion, “Did I say I couldn’t forge them?”
“What?” Xie Tingfeng was shocked. “You really can?”
Su Yuan calmly replied, “I can.”
Xie Tingfeng immediately stood up excitedly and grabbed Su Yuan’s hand. “You really—”
“But I’ve never forged one before!” Su Yuan added.
Xie Tingfeng’s mouth twitched.
“You’ve never forged one?” He suspected Su Yuan was messing with him.
“Yes, but I believe I can forge one as long as I have the materials.”
Su Yuan said indifferently.
Xie Tingfeng fell silent.
He had personally examined the Dominator Artifacts Su Yuan had forged. Not only were they of excellent quality, but the key point was that all those Dominator Artifacts were forged in a short period of time. This indicated that Su Yuan had mastered a method for batch-forging Dominator Artifacts. And since he could batch-forge True-Grade Sixty Rank Dominator Artifacts, his forging skill must far exceed the Sixty Rank.
He had guessed that Su Yuan could forge Sixty-Nine Rank Dominator Artifacts, but he never expected Su Yuan could forge Seventy-Two Rank ones. Though the difference seemed like only three ranks, the actual gap was tens of thousands of times greater.
Xie Tingfeng thought for a moment and asked, “Are you currently lacking forging materials?”
Su Yuan naturally nodded. “Yes!”
Xie Tingfeng took a deep breath and solemnly produced three sets of Seventy-Two Rank materials.
“These are some Seventy-Two Rank main materials I’ve accumulated. You can take them and try forging. Even if you fail, it’s fine – just treat it as practice!”
Xie Tingfeng smiled.
Su Yuan was surprised. “Speaker Xie, do you trust me that much?”
Xie Tingfeng calmly said, “It’s not like they’re useful just sitting in my hands anyway.”
Su Yuan asked curiously, “Why didn’t you ask the artificers at the First Frontline to forge them?”
Xie Tingfeng shook his head. “You don’t know this, but the First Frontline only takes in and never sends out. Once those high-level masters enter the First Frontline, it’s very difficult to send resources back out. This is precisely to prevent those Nothingness Dominators there from finding loopholes.”
Su Yuan suddenly understood. “So that’s how it is!”
Su Yuan looked at the three sets of materials in his hands – a pair of extremely sharp fangs, an unknown tendon membrane, and a piece of bloodstained purple stone.
“That’s it?” Su Yuan asked with a strange expression.
“Cough, cough, these are the main materials. You can exchange for auxiliary materials at the Merit Points Mall yourself. Once you successfully forge them, I’ll give you a generous reward,” Xie Tingfeng said.
Meaning that if he failed, there would be no compensation, right?
Su Yuan casually responded, “Forging this Dominator Artifact might take a very long time!”
Xie Tingfeng nodded. “It’s fine, take your time forging! I have matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now. Remember to report for duty at the Military Artifactory Headquarters.”
“Speaker, let me see you out.”
“Yes.”
Su Yuan escorted Xie Tingfeng away.
Meanwhile.
Qi Bai finally emerged from seclusion.
“I’ve finally broken through one rank. This bottleneck had me stuck for countless years!”
Qi Bai stood up with satisfaction, then connected to the Second Frontline’s messages.
He was delighted to discover that the order he had placed at the Seven Stars Shop had already been completed.
He immediately clicked to receive it.
A thousand Dominator Artifacts materialized before him.
He inspected them one by one and confirmed that all the Dominator Artifacts met the requirements.
He immediately opened the military camp’s logistics section and chose to submit the task.
The thousand Dominator Artifacts vanished in an instant, and he also received a large amount of Chaos Jades and Merit Points – the amount was much more than he had anticipated.
He immediately opened the task list, wanting to find another mission to take on, but saw that the list was completely empty. The tasks that had once filled the screen were nowhere to be seen.
