Chapter 22 Instigator(1/2)

Be the fire, be the fire, be the fire!

The rhythmic sound of percussion came from the blacksmith shop. Under Li Yu's hammer, the hot steel deformed rapidly like plasticine, which made Li Yu marvel at the extraordinary power.

With his current strength, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a human-shaped stamping machine. The metal block fixed by the iron clamps quickly formed the shape of a 'wide iron block', and as Li Yu sprinkled a handful of the unique '

The steel mother's powder is placed on the metal block, and then the iron block is folded up with brute force, and the forging continues.

By repeating this process, you will finally get a sword full of patterns, which is the beautiful pattern of the legendary 'Damascus sword'.

This method of forging is time-consuming and labor-intensive. For ordinary blacksmiths, it is measured in years and months, but for a 'warrior' like Li Yu who has already entered the ranks of extraordinary beings, it can be easily shortened to a few days.

"Master, aren't you exercising your strength?"

On the window sill of the blacksmith shop, the little loli flying squirrel sat on it, its two chubby feet dangling. While tilting his head to observe Li Yu who was forging the iron, he took out a centipede and started eating it.

"Although I can wear heavy armor, dance with iron rods, and kill tigers with my bare hands, I am still a craftsman at heart. Now this is training."

Li Yu was not pretending, but had a clear understanding of his own strength.

Don't look at him punching the 'corpse-eating hyena', kicking the 'painted skin', and beating the eye-catching white-fronted tiger to death with his bare hands, but he just bullied the opponent and had no skills at all.

Fighting these monsters evolved from beasts and spirits does not require skills most of the time. What is needed is courage and strength. It is precisely these two kinds of things that Li Yu lacks, so he can defeat his opponents in a head-to-head fight.

But if the opponent becomes a human, he will need various fighting skills: even if he fights a hundred times, it will be difficult for Li Yu to defeat Winnie once.

Humans are the creatures that have truly developed the skill of killing to the pinnacle!

"So, blacksmithing is my job."

If you don’t have enough skills, you need props.

Because time was too tight during yesterday's battle, many of Li Yu's ideas had no chance to be transformed into reality. But now: Leyuan County has opened several cauldrons, while disemboweling the corpses of the monsters left last night, and making

On the other hand, the various collected 'nitrates' began to dissolve, filter and evaporate, and a strange smell wafted throughout the county.

Li Yu, on the other hand, planned to make a few swords to practice his skills first, and then start to forge various professional tools. When the gunpowder comes out, he can make weapons that he is familiar with.

Of course, in this world where extraordinary power is everywhere, guns and cannons can only be used as a means of excess. The 'craftsmanship' that Li Yu embarked on is a very advanced profession. According to Momonga, masters of the craftsmanship can not only create

Various mechanical magic weapons can also create various 'magic weapons' with magical functions.

And the creations made by the top craftsmen are the rumored ‘magic weapons’!

As for why she knows so well, it’s because:

"He is determined to join the imperial court in the 'Shan Hai Division' where he is very popular. He has collected intelligence for many years and knows all the departments under Zhou's command."

The blond loli sitting on the window sill let the half centipede in her mouth swing around and opened her fingers one by one.

"Qingluo Si who violently suppresses ghosts, Wude Si who is responsible for spying on intelligence, Shan Hai Si who is composed of demons who have taken refuge in the imperial court, Tiangong Si who is responsible for making various magic weapons, and Astrology Department who performs divination and divination, and finally add

The Tianlaosi, known as the purgatory on earth, together formed the six major institutions of the Zhou Dynasty to suppress demons, warriors, and monks in the world..."

You guy, you worked really hard to pass the "establishment" exam.

Li Yu rolled his eyes at the little lolita on the window sill. Thanks to this little demon who wanted to eat 'public food', he was able to quickly understand this strange world.

"Master, why don't you join the Great Zhou Dynasty. In this way, I...we can settle down on the spot."

Although even the 'City God' who was canonized by the imperial court can be killed quietly, it is still safer than fighting against the sky, monsters and people in the wild.

"We will discuss this issue later,"

Li Yu does not object to becoming a 'civil servant'. According to Fei Shou's explanation, the 'Da Zhou' that replaced 'Da Cang' was founded a hundred years ago, and the fifth emperor, 'Emperor Kangwu', was in his prime, although there was still a land of monsters outside the country.

, Bashu Ghost House and other hostile forces, but the hinterland of the Central Plains has been free of war and natural disasters for a hundred years, and it can be said to be a prosperous age.

The imperial court was too far away, so I didn't know how true or false what Fei Shou said was. However, the magistrate, chief registrar, dianshi and other officials of Leyuan County refused to retreat when facing the scholar in mourning clothes. Not only did they kill many of the opponents

Zombies also allowed the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the county to escape successfully. Li Yu still knew this.

There is also the masked 'Star Officer' of Qingluo Si. He is not domineering. He rushes to the front in battle and always puts the people first in his words.

If you look at the subtle details, you can see that this great Zhou Dynasty is not that good, but at least it is not the kind of corrupt government that is ignorant and unscrupulous.

but--

"Wait a moment,"

Li Yu put down the hammer and raised his hand to interrupt the little Loli Flying Squirrel's eloquent introduction.

"You just said that the current Holy Emperor is called 'Emperor Kangwu'?"

"yes,"

The little loli who was chewing the centipede nodded,

"Isn't this a posthumous title?"

Li Yu frowned. The posthumous title represents his deeds; the title represents his achievements.

"yes,"

Momonga nodded again matter-of-factly.

??

"The emperor is still alive, why is he called by his posthumous title?"

Faced with Li Yu's puzzled inquiry, Flying Squirrel raised his head and swallowed the centipede, giving Li Yu a blank look.

"Master, you...forget it,"

The little Loli shook her head and sighed, with a look of disdain like 'Master, you are so ignorant and incompetent'.

"In the past, the emperors of the imperial court had their posthumous titles only after they were sealed in coffins. But it was different in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty would set their own posthumous titles when they ascended the throne. Just look at the posthumous titles.

Knowing the future achievements and character of this king, it can be said that the emperor's 'posthumous title' is the banner that can best stabilize the hearts of the world."

?!

What is this, a reversal of cause and effect?

Thinking of the extraordinary power everywhere in this world, Li Yu touched his chin thoughtfully.

————

While Li Yu was ‘rolling iron’ at the blacksmith, in their temporary residence:

'The preparation of low-sequence potions is very simple. There is no need for additional rituals, no spells, or even your spiritual participation. Just follow the order of the formula, add the ingredients accurately one by one, stir again, and raise your head.

Drink it. Congratulations, you made the cut.'

Recalling the words of the Witch Church mentor, Winnie looked at the materials she collected on the table and picked up a crystal bottle.

First, it is 100 ml of pure water;

Well, this is the 'basic material' of most potions, and its function is only to enable the potion to be swallowed by the user.

Next, 5 drops of white datura juice;

This liquid has a certain aphrodisiac effect, making people feel drowsy as if they are flying in the clouds; however, once excessive intake, people will fall asleep directly. It is one of the favorite assassination props of assassins: it can be used as a

The props used to seduce people can also kill them without any resistance!

Then Winnie added another 10 drops of milky white liquid;

Poppy juice!

If Li Yu were here, he would definitely smash this thing without hesitation! After all, the so-called juice of poppy flowers is the famous opium.

In fact, a small amount of poppy flower juice is a very effective painkiller, but if taken in large amounts... it is a poison that can destroy the mind!

After dripping the excessive poison into the bottle, Winnie calmly picked up the most important material: the tongue of a foodless ghost, which was similar to the body left behind by an extraordinary creature called the 'Filthy Whisperer' in her world.

'The previous materials are all auxiliary. Adding more or less will not affect the final effect.'

'What is really important is the blood, flesh, or other things that correspond to extraordinary creatures. Remember, you need to go to the Western Continent to find these materials yourself. Although there are risks and problems of this kind, it is finally a channel for promotion:

If you continue to stay here, you can only wait for rewards from the church's higher-ups. So, what is your answer?'

As the tongue fell into the crystal bottle, it quickly merged with the previous material. Red foam bubbled up, and the bright red liquid continued to stir in the bottle like a living thing.

The teacher's frivolous words seemed to come back to her ears. At the same time, the liquid in the crystal bottle was noisy and provocative, trying to influence Winnie's mind.

Snapped,

She didn't give this bottle of magic potion at all, or when the mentor in her memory continued to talk nonsense, Winnie directly picked up the crystal bottle on the table and raised her head——

Guru,

With her white and elegant neck swallowing, Winnie drank the bottle of potion in one gulp.

In the next second, her vision quickly became blurry, and all the colors intensified. The reds became redder, the blues became bluer, and the blacks became darker. The colors were rich and patchwork, like an oil painting splashed by an impressionist master. But:

Black does not symbolize mystery and tranquility, but represents despair and sin;

White does not symbolize purity and light, but represents loneliness and emptiness;

Red does not symbolize passion and warmth, but represents killing and violence;

Yellow does not symbolize brightness and nobility, but represents decay and fester;

Green does not symbolize peace and youth, but represents perversion and distortion;
