Chapter 175 - Alchemic Smith
🕑 Added 2024-11-22 07:00:08 +0000 UTCAs a cultivator who relied heavily on a weapon, the weapon she used cannot be lower than her level because it would be more of a hindrance than a help.
With her sword intent power growing day by day, it was becoming obvious that her broadsword would break sooner or later when it couldn't endure Qi enhancement and sword intent subjected to it anymore.
This situation was very similar to what happened to her madam when her cauldron broke to pieces, because it wasn't strong enough to support her alchemy anymore.
Although the situation between her and her madam was similar, the results would differ greatly. If her weapon was to break during an actual battle, she might die as a result.
Does she really have to buy a new broadsword? Was there no way to increase the tier of her current broadsword without melting and reforging it into a new one?
"What's wrong Val? You looked distracted." Leyvi asked. "Are you actually thinking of becoming my fighting secretary? I know, right? It's such a cool position. No wonder you were in a dilemma." He joked.
"Who wants to be your stinky fighting secretary? I'm thinking about something else," Valenia retorted.
"Haha." Leyvi chuckled. "Val, why are you calling yourself stinky? Your scent is quite unique, but I don't think you are stinky." He continued the teasing.
"Madam, look at him annoying people non-stop." Valenia blushed while complaining.
"That's not fair, Val. I heard that every time you are horny, you would seduce him into your room, but when you are satisfied, you throw him away. I don't know that you are this cruel!" Anda acted. She took Leyvi's side as always.
"Madam....you....fine! I don't want to talk anymore!" Valenia turned her body to face another direction. Her face was as red as her hair. How could she say stuff like that with people around?
Anda giggled. She enjoyed joining hands with Leyvi to tease Valenia.
Soon, they found a hotel to stay for the night. Although the Forge Quarter was always noisy with hammering sounds, all the lodgings here could block outside noises so the indoors would always be peaceful.
The five of them were in a large hotel room on the top floor. They could see people working tirelessly in and out of their smithies from the window.
"The array systems installed in the hotel are quite advanced. Not only did it cancel all the noise from the outside, but I didn't even feel any tremors." Leyvi praised.
When they were walking outside, the loud noise wasn't the only thing produced by the hammering. One must remember that the blacksmiths were also cultivators with great strength. Every time they hammered the materials, it would cause significant tremors.
"Hehe, of course it is advanced. Blacksmith is not the only popular profession here, array expert is plenty here too. They work hand in hand with blacksmiths to create spirit equipment." Nala explained while taking the advantage to hug Leyvi from behind.
She knew that her man was ignorant of many things due to his young age, but that didn't deter her from being attracted to him.
"So, what other unique professions do they have here?" Leyvi was curious.
Just because he was ignorant, it didn't mean he would continue being ignorant. When he got the chance to learn about something, his ears would open up and take in the information.
Nala had a thinking face before she answered, "Hmm... besides blacksmith, there are craftsmen who also worked with array masters to design and create spirit artifacts. Some alchemists also became more specialized in their profession to be Alchemic Smiths."
Leyvi's eyes brightened as he felt more curious about what Nala said. "Alchemic Smith? First time I heard this term. What do they do?"
"They combine different metals with other materials to create Qi-conductive metals or metals with unique properties. Most metals actually can't conduct Qi very well, so it's the alchemic smith's job to make them possible." Nala's hands couldn't stop exploring Leyvi's body while explaining.
"Wait a minute. Isn't an alchemic smith more important than a blacksmith, then?" Leyvi asked. He just let Nala acting horny.
"Em, you could say that. A very skilled alchemic smith could even produce metals with unique properties. I heard that long ago, a legendary alchemic smith produced a metal that could resonate with the living being's soul, causing them to pass out. After that, a blacksmith turned it into a tier-5 metal bat. The people here hailed it as the most effective non-lethal spirit weapon ever created." Nala retold the story she had heard from the locals.
Leyvi's body stiffened.
Huh? It couldn't be right? A tier-5 metal bat? No no no. There was no way he coincidentally obtained the same spirit weapon as the one in Nala's story. He hadn't tested it yet, so he wasn't sure what the metal bat could do.
Leyvi looked at Lilian, and her expression showed that she was thinking about the same thing. Lilian saw the tier-5 metal bat too when he rummaged through the items from the space ring he got.
So Leyvi brought out the metal bat. His curiosity had reached its peak. He wanted to test its effect right now.
"Eh? That's a tier-5 metal bat! That's... that's not the same one I just told you about, right?" Nala immediately stopped hugging Leyvi, feeling disbelief.
"Hehe. Leyvi, try it out. This is the only way to find out." Anda suggested.
"Uhh, try it to who?" Leyvi asked.
He hesitated at first, but then he remembered he had spirit beasts. Mr. Bison could be the perfect test subject. The lawnmower had a protagonist syndrome lately, maybe he could fix him with a nice bonk.
Unfortunately, Anda said something before he managed to summon Mr. Bison.
"Whoever volunteered to be the test subject can have an exclusive night with Leyvi and I will supply performance-enhancing products for that night." Anda offered with a mischievous smile. She knew a person who wouldn't pass on this offer.
"Me me me! Madam, I volunteer! Test it on me!" Nala instantly volunteered while jumping, causing her breasts to pop out of her dress. She didn't even hesitate after she heard the offer. Why would a horny lady like her missed out on this excellent deal?
Leyvi rolled his eyes. Of course she would. Anda obviously expected Nala's reaction from the beginning.
On the other side, Valenia pouted. She wanted to volunteer too, but due to her personality, she couldn't be as open as Nala.
"Alright, Leyvi, we have our test subject now. Try it." Anda said.
"Come on, darling! Anything for a special night with you!" Nala urged while her boobs jiggled.
As an exhibitionist, although she had restrained herself from flashing to the public, she still actively flashed her intimate parts exclusively for Leyvi whenever she could. So, she didn't cover her breasts back when they popped out. They were meant to be free.
The ladies had already gotten used to her peculiar personality, so they didn't say anything. What seemed weird was that sometimes, they even had the urge to act the same way.
Leyvi hesitated for a bit, but he decided to do it. After all, it was not a dangerous weapon. He lifted the metal bat, injected a sliver of his Qi into it, and then lightly tapped it on her shoulder. Even if the metal bat had a dangerous effect, there was no way that small action could harm Nala at all.
When the metal bat tapped Nala's shoulder, Leyvi felt an almost unnoticeable vibration coming from it.
The next moment, Nala fainted.
Leyvi caught her immediately and put her on the bed. After putting her beautiful breasts inside her dress again, Leyvi checked on Nala's condition.
"She didn't get hurt at all. She was just sleeping! Holy! This is really the tier-5 metal bat from the story. Hahaha!" Leyvi laughed from happiness.
How could he not be happy? He got a great weapon that matched his personality. Until now, he was reluctant to kill any human. So, if he could easily put them to sleep, that would be great. It was ironic, considering his fighting style was extremely destructive.
A few seconds later, Nala woke up. "Am I asleep?" Nala checked her body. "Ahhhh!" She suddenly exclaimed.
"What's wrong Nala? Are you hurt somewhere?" Leyvi became worried.
"Who put my boobs inside? They deserve to be out!" Nala let them out again.
"...." Everyone was speechless.
Leyvi sighed. He was worried about nothing.
After that, Anda suggested trying it again with slightly more force and Qi, which he did.
He found out that using more Qi and force wouldn't harm the receiver in the slightest. It only affects the sleep duration. The more force and Qi used, the longer the sleep duration. After many tests, he liked the weapon more and more!
"Hahaha! From now on, anyone who has trouble sleeping can come to me. I will only charge a little. Your kids won't sleep? I'll smack their heads to sleep! You have insomnia? Let me bonk you to sleep!" Leyvi acted like he was opening a lullaby business.
While Leyvi and the group were laughing in the hotel room, a token vibrated in a certain place.
"Eh? The family heirloom token is vibrating. Father said that if this happens, the ancestor's creation would be nearby! Which one is it?" A female grabbed the vibrating silver token.
