Chapter 493 Blacksmiths Association, Building Height
Time flies by.
After Lingtian and Qian Renxue visited Gengxin City for two days, Chenxi finally finished handling the matters in Tianshui City and arrived at the Metal Capital to successfully reunite with Lingtian.
With the arrival of morning light, the people of Snow Palace also took action.
Although Lingtian said that he would take action himself, trivial matters such as invitations and information still required the Snow Palace disciples to do it for him.
soon.
Chenxi has already integrated all the information.
After some discussion with Lingtian, the date for going to the Blacksmiths Association was finally decided.
As for the name of the visit.
Because Gengxin City is located in the Star Luo Empire, the identities of Lingtian and Qian Renxue are relatively sensitive.
For example, Lingtian: If people knew that the emperor of the Tiandou Empire appeared in Gengxin City, it might cause some trouble.
Similarly: Qian Renxue’s identity also has this concern.
In addition, the purpose of the two of them coming here was just to get the Golden Fire Fusion Crystal, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble during the process, after some discussion between Lingtian, Qian Renxue, and Chen Xi, they decided to use Qian Ling
Visit the Blacksmith Guild in the name of the city lord.
The development of Qianling City in recent years must be underestimated.
Although it is just a new city, it relies on the strong strength of Snow Palace.
The name of the ‘Ultra North Barrier’ has already been coined.
After years of publicity from tourists from north to south, Qianling City, a new city, has become unparalleled in the limelight.
Even as far away as Gengxin City in the Star Luo Empire, many people have heard of its name.
The Blacksmiths Guild is no exception.
Although there are powerful soul masters in the Blacksmith Association, they are in the minority after all, and a large number of the blacksmiths are just ordinary people. Naturally, the Blacksmith Association will not be able to establish a relationship with a city like Thousand Spirits City where powerful soul masters are stationed.
reject.
And to show how much they value it.
As the president of the Blacksmiths Association, Lou Gao must meet him in person.
…
…
The next day.
Gengxin City, Blacksmiths Association.
After Lingtian and Qian Renxue had breakfast, they headed to their destination, the Blacksmith Association.
The association is located in the center of Gengxin City, not far from the hotel where Lingtian and others stayed last night, so the three of them did not hire a carriage and walked there.
soon.
A tall building appeared in front of the three people.
Looking up, the overall height of the Blacksmiths Association is at least thirty meters, and it occupies a large area.
However, considering that Gengxin City is known as the City of Metals, it is not surprising that the Blacksmiths Association, as the front of many blacksmiths, has a brilliant building.
There is no word on the iron plaque hanging in front of the building. Instead, there is a cross-shaped pattern of a hammer and a chisel.
Such a distinct symbol.
Even though there are no words, you know this is the Blacksmiths Association.
In the hearts of Douluo Continent and all the blacksmiths, its status is no less than that of Wuhun Temple among soul masters.
certainly.
There is no comparison between the two forces.
Although the whole building is rough in appearance, without any gorgeous decorations, and there are no guards guarding the door. But as the facade of the metal city, there is an endless flow of people coming and going. From Mikami's open door, you can see
Saw the bustling crowd among them.
At this time, a disciple of the Snow Palace saw the morning light and immediately came forward to greet him.
He looked at the three of them and said respectfully, "This disciple has met Elder Chen Xi and the Lord."
Today is different from the past.
After Ling Tian's soul power broke through to the title Douluo, Chen Yu no longer had to hide his identity.
So the younger generation of disciples in Snow Palace already know about it.
Especially after learning that Lingtian was now a titled Douluo, these disciples regarded Lingtian as their idol.
Chen Xi nodded to the disciple and introduced: "Your Majesty, his name is Lin Yun. He is the disciple who is responsible for contacting the Blacksmith Association. He also found out about the previous news about the Golden Fire Flame Crystal."
“Not bad~”
After hearing this, Lingtian smiled and nodded.
"Thank you, Lord, for the compliment."
After Chen Xi's introduction, Lin Yun bowed respectfully to Lingtian and Qian Renxue.
Although Qian Renxue’s identity is unclear, the relationship between the two is by no means simple.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue smiled slightly.
He thought to himself: This disciple of the Snow Palace is quite sensible.
"Okay, let's go in."
Chen Xi looked at Lin Yun and gestured, "You should also know about the Blacksmiths Association during this time, right? Just give us an introduction."
"yes."
Lin Yun nodded respectfully, knowing very well the purpose of Chen Xi calling him here. He quickly acted as a commentator and introduced the Blacksmiths Association to Lingtian and others. He had been running here often during this period, so he didn't know much about the Blacksmiths Association.
few.
"The Blacksmith Association not only evaluates the blacksmiths' grades, but is also the largest, most comprehensive and authoritative trading market in the entire Gengxin City. It is divided into five floors. The first and second floors are trading areas, but the second floor trades
The quality of the items must be higher than the first level
, most of the rare metals are on the second floor of the Blacksmith Association. The third floor is the registration assessment area responsible for evaluating the blacksmiths' grades. The fourth floor is the VIP area, responsible for the auction of some more precious items. The fifth floor
It is the office area of the president of the Blacksmiths Association."
Lin Yun gave a general introduction to the scale of the Blacksmiths Association, and Lingtian and others also had a basic understanding.
Talking room.
The four of them walked into the first floor of the Blacksmiths Association.
The layout here is similar to the lower level of the Tiandou Chamber of Commerce that Lingtian visited before. Inside is an empty hall, and the counters around it are filled with various finished products cast by blacksmiths.
There were many people coming and going around, and it was very lively.
After the four Lingtian people stopped on the first floor for a while, they walked to the stairs on the side of the hall.
In addition to the first level where you can enter the Blacksmith Guild casually, the remaining four levels require different credentials.
So in front of the stairs, there are two guards responsible for the handles.
As he spoke, Lin Yun, who was well prepared, took out a golden token and waved it in front of the two of them. The latter paused and quickly stepped back respectfully to let the way pass.
Lingtian and Qian Renxue were not surprised by this either.
Not only the Blacksmiths Association, but also the previous Tiandou Trading Company.
Judging from the expressions of the two guards, the token Lin Yun took out should be of a high level.
…
…
Soon, a group of people stepped onto the second floor.
As soon as you enter the second floor, you feel a different feeling.
Due to identity restrictions, the number of people on the second floor is much smaller and the environment is quieter.
The layout no longer resembled the previous counter model, but was replaced by different shops. Lingtian took a cursory glance at them and found that the quality of the items sold was indeed much better than on the first floor.
And there are also several shops specializing in selling metal materials.
However, although these shops are endorsed by the Blacksmiths Association, they are also much more expensive than outside.
Lingtian, Qian Renxue, and Chen Xi strolled around for a while, then led by Lin Yun to the stairs on the second floor.
Similar to the stairs on the first floor, there are also two soul master handles.
However, these two soul masters are much higher than the two on the first level in terms of age and soul power fluctuations, and they probably have to be around the soul king.
The side shows that the higher the level of the Blacksmith Association, the more important it becomes.
Lin Yun, who was well prepared, took two steps forward with a smile and took out the golden token from before.
Like the guards on the previous floor, the two men's expressions changed, and then they bowed respectfully and saluted.
"My lord, please."
Lingtian nodded slightly and took the lead in climbing the stairs with Qian Renxue.
Lin Yun followed Chen Xi, and the group quickly passed the stairs from the second to the third floor.
Lingtian and others in the auction house and registration assessment area had little interest, so Lin Yun did not stay too long and quickly led the three of them to the stairs between the third and fourth floors.
There are also two guards guarding here.
And their soul power is not low, they all have soul power at the Soul Saint level.
This actually surprised Lingtian.
But then I thought about it, after all, this is the general meeting of the Blacksmiths Association, so there is no problem if the Soul Saint is in charge of the handle.
The two of them were not surprised to see Lin Yun and his entourage approaching. They raised their hands and said, "Brother Lin, these are the distinguished guests of Qianling City, right? The president has been waiting for a long time."
"Thank you two masters."
Lin Yun smiled and nodded.
When he came to the Blacksmith Association on behalf of Thousand Spirits City before, he was interacting with the two Soul Saints in front of him.
So they are no strangers to each other.
"Who are these two?" Lingtian asked.
"My lord."
Lin Yun hurriedly turned around and introduced respectfully, "These two are Master Silong and Master Siyu among the four disciples of Master Lou Gao. They are both master blacksmiths second only to the divine craftsman. About this time before
When I came to the Blacksmiths Association, I also contacted these two masters."
"Um."
Lingtian nodded slightly and said nothing.
"..."
When Silong and Siyu heard Lin Yun's name for Lingtian, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes.
They originally thought that the rumored city lord of Qianling City should be an older woman, but they never expected that it was the extremely young boy standing between the two!
At such an age, he could be the lord of a city.
It’s really unimaginable…
While the two were marveling at it, Lin Yun coughed twice to remind them.
"Two masters, we should go see Senior Lou Gao first, right?"
"Yes, yes."
Silong and Siyu came to their senses and quickly bowed and agreed.
"Siyu, I'll leave this to you. I'll take them upstairs to see the teacher first."
"Um."
The two had a brief exchange, and Silong led the four of them up the stairwell, while Siyu continued to wait in place.
This is the important place of the Blacksmiths Guild and must be guarded.
soon.
Under the leadership of Silong, several people came to the stairs on the last floor. There were no guards guarding the left and right here. Instead, there was a door blocking the stairs. Judging from the material, it should be made of a combination of many hard alloy materials.
Made.
As the gateway to the last level of the Blacksmiths Association, it goes without saying that the gate's defensive power is of course undeniable.
It may be difficult to block a Titled Douluo, but a Contra should be able to withstand it for three seconds.
While Lingtian was thinking, Silong had already walked to the alloy door.
As the fingers tapped at different positions with different strengths, a subtle mechanical sound came from the alloy door.
When Silong knocked on the thirty-sixth time, the metal door made a rattling sound and slowly opened to the side, revealing the passage upstairs.
See the situation.
A flash of surprise flashed in Lingtian's eyes.
It has to be said that although many exquisite skills have been lost, current technology is also constantly improving.
The alloy door in front of you is proof of this.
"Four of you, please."
Silong and Siyu took two steps back.
He motioned for the four of them to go in.
Lingtian, Chenxi, and Chenxi did not hesitate and stepped into the alloy door.
Soon the five people reached the top of the Blacksmiths Association.
I thought it was an office belonging to only one person on the floor, but I saw other people walking around on the floor.
Seeing the doubts in everyone's eyes, Silong also introduced it to everyone.
"Except for the teachers on the last level of our Blacksmith Association, every blacksmith above the master level of our Blacksmith Association has his or her own exclusive studio."
"I see……"
When talking about the blacksmith, Silong also started talking.
Lingtian and others also learned about the fifth level of the Blacksmith Association from his words.
From the outside to the inside, there are a total of thirty-six studios for master blacksmiths on the five floors of the entire blacksmith association.
However, because the blacksmith industry is not taken seriously in Douluo Continent nowadays, the number of master-level blacksmiths is pitiful, and less than ten of the thirty-six studios can actually be used.
Soon, under the leadership of Silong, everyone arrived at Lou Gao's studio.
It is also the first studio numbered one.
Silong stopped in front of the door, stood respectfully in front of it, raised his hand and knocked gently on the metal door.
"Teacher, the guests from Qianling City have arrived."
"The door is unlocked, bring it in."
"Yes, teacher."
After Silong pushed open the metal door, he made an inviting gesture to several people.
"Four of you, please."
"..."
Lingtian nodded slightly and took the lead into the studio.
The layout of the studio is very minimalist.
In addition to tables and chairs, there is a row of wooden shelves with some iron tools placed on them. There seems to be a small door at the back, which should be the room where the equipment is made.
‘Click~’
As a machine sounded, a short, fat old man walked out of the small door.
There is an inexplicable sense of joy in a large robe.
"teacher."
Silong took two steps forward and stood respectfully behind the old man.
That’s right!
The funny-looking old man in front of him is Lou Gao, the president of the Blacksmiths Association and one of the three great masters in the blacksmith world today. Just by looking at his appearance, no one would have guessed that the famous master blacksmith would look like this.
Qian Renxue and Chen Xi both had a look of surprise in their beautiful eyes.
"These are the distinguished guests who have come all the way from Thousand Spirits City. I don't know what to call them."
After Silong chatted quietly for a while, Lou Zhong's energetic voice sounded, and at the same time he greeted everyone with a smile.
"I am the Lord of Qianling City, Lingtian."
Lingtian smiled and nodded, saying, "These two are my lover and friend respectively."
"I didn't expect that Your Excellency is actually the Lord of Qianling City. You are truly a young hero..."
Lou Gao squinted his small eyes and looked at the three of them.
After inviting the three of them to sit down, they began to chat enthusiastically.
