Chapter Thirteen The Magic Sword - Thousand Blades
Office of the General Military Department of the Eastern Military Region
"Tianze, this is my office and one of the most secret places in the entire Eastern Military Region.
These metals have extremely high authority. If you cannot control them, then these metals must be sent back as they are.
So according to the regulations, you can only try to control them here. If it weren't for the special characteristics of these metals, you would not be able to enter this room even if you were my son."
After Li Wenru introduced his office to Li Tianze, he picked up a box from the corner of the office and input magic energy to open it. At this time, Li Tianze finally saw the metal that Li Wenru was so impressed by.
Li Tianze was extremely disappointed when he saw the true appearance of those metals. They were just pieces of black metal fragments, and there was nothing special about them.
After seeing his son's disinterested expression, Li Wenru decided to educate his son about this metal.
"This metal is called Infinity Metal. The name is very tacky, right? But maybe it really deserves the name Infinity.
This metal has only three properties: strong, sharp, and high melting point. It doesn’t seem like much at first glance, but this metal has growth properties!
Each piece of metal fragment absorbs the soul, and after the residual soul, it will increase its own two characteristics. The upper limit of this growth has not yet been determined, because the later metal fragments can only absorb the residual soul and essence of the commander level or even the monarch level.
Only in this way can we continue to achieve effective growth.”
Seeing Li Tianze who was shocked by the specialness of this metal, Li Wenru continued to say meaningfully:
"These metals were discovered in Taishan fifteen years ago. After it was discovered that they could not be analyzed or copied and that their melting points were far beyond the controllable temperature of humans, all experiments on making new fragments absorb souls were stopped to avoid being too hard.
So high that the metal cannot be polished.
Coincidentally, when the experiment was stopped, the amount of metal left for polishing was just enough to make a minimum demon-slaying tool."
Li Tianze understood the meaning of Li Wenru's words, which meant that due to the extremely high melting point of these metals, these metals could only be polished, but could not be melted and cast into the form of a magic slaying tool.
Therefore, the prerequisite for using it must be that the metal can be completely controlled, and because the amount of metal is extremely small, these metals can only be owned by one person.
(Don’t ask why those metals can’t be distributed to everyone. A metal fragment the size of a human finger faces a demon more than ten meters high. How are you going to hurt it?)
"Many big guys in the country have applied to make these metals into their own magic-killing tools, but because these fragments require the use of magic energy to perfectly control them, those people have failed without exception, including me.
The most important thing is that although Infinity Metal meets a series of characteristics of a magic tool, it cannot be absorbed into the user's body."
After listening to Li Wenru's words, Li Tianze's heart skipped a beat. Should he try to control these metals himself?
If the control fails, it doesn't matter. After all, so many big guys have failed, and it is natural for me to fail. The only loss is the loss of a magic-slaying tool that can increase the attributes infinitely.
But if the control is successful, and he gets a top-quality magic-slaying tool, he will definitely become the target of public criticism. Some people will definitely want to know how he can perfectly control those metals.
After weighing the pros and cons, Li Tianze gritted his teeth and gave it a try!
The power and influence of my father and the leader of the Chinese Army will continue to rise for nearly ten years. If I can protect myself, I will at least be a super-level mage in ten years. If I have to rely on the protection of my elders at that time, I will be embarrassed.
I lost my big hair.
After making up his mind, Li Tianze input his magic energy into these fragments, and the fragments all floated up. There were too many of them and they were too broken. There were probably hundreds of fragments.
When his father looked like this, Li Tianze said with complicated emotions:
"Dad, can you ask the military leader to help me block the news that I can perfectly control infinite metal?
As long as I can put it off, I plan to save this magic-slaying tool until the World Academy Competition and then take it out for public use."
"Okay, it's great that you have such an idea. I will communicate with the military leader and ask him to help you issue a gag order. Have you thought about what kind of magic-slaying tool you want?"
"I've thought about it, I want a knife-shaped demon-slaying tool. I've already thought of a name, so I'll call it, Demon Sword, Thousand Blades!"
Li Wenru paused after hearing the name his son gave to the demon-slaying tool. Just when he was about to advise his son to change the name of the sword, he saw his son's firm gaze.
"The magic sword - a thousand blades; it only attacks but does not defend, it is unparalleled in the world!"
Dad, I will definitely need such a magic knife in the future."
Li Wenru sighed slightly after listening to his son's words. The battle mage combat system created by his son has gradually taken shape. After having a general framework, they only need to find each type of magic that is suitable for this system.
Which part of the , and then just fill them in.
However, there is one problem that the father and son have been avoiding. How to resolve the disputes that arise after the promotion?
There is no problem in the country. After all, the military has always been the leader. After the promotion of Battle Mage, the military eats meat and everyone else eats soup. Everyone has no objection.
But what about abroad?
Do they want you to pay? Do you want to charge?
This can involve a lot of problems. It's okay if you can reach an agreement, but if you can't reach an agreement, they won't sit there and watch your overall strength increase. They will definitely try their best to drag you down, and it is inevitable that you will have to do something.
After thinking about the complicated future situation, Li Wenru felt very headache.
"Okay, just do as you say."
After ending this annoying topic, the conversation between father and son resumed its usual style.
"Dad."
"Um?"
"I've killed so many one-eyed demon wolves before, didn't the essence come out?"
"Do you have a dead soul vessel? I took it away and sold it to pay for the cost of your damaged demon-slaying tool and medical expenses."
"Nonsense! Are you hiding your personal money? And why is there a scar on my chest from the claws of a wolf?"
"We don't have enough money, so the treatment was interrupted in the middle. Besides, don't you think this scar looks cool on your body?"
"I don't care, I don't believe it, I want my hard-earned money!"
...
After all, Li Tianze did not get his hard-earned money, and now he is sitting in the lobby of Shanghai No. 1 High School, listening to the principal's impassioned opening speech.
The students around him heard this with excitement, but for Li Tianze, the motivational words spoken by the principal were really boring. It was more effective to just let the flowers in the greenhouse fight the monsters head-on.
Li Tianze once again did not take the high school entrance examination, high school entrance examination, and placement test, and directly entered the first grade of high school.
What? Unfair?
Are you talking to me about fairness here? Other students haven't awakened yet, and Li Tianze is already deciding when to break through to the intermediate level.
If you talk about fairness with such a being, that would be the greatest injustice.
...
"Okay, today's awakening begins. I hope you can become a rising magic star in the future!"
After the principal said this, all the students stood up and applauded the principal's speech, because the next step was the part that everyone was looking forward to.
And Li Tianze also decided when he would be promoted to an intermediate mage, now!
After adding a little to the upper limit of the wind and thunder magic energy, Li Tianze felt that something in his mind was broken.
No adverse reactions?
I read that in the original novel, Mo Fan almost collapsed when he made a breakthrough. Why didn't I feel anything when it came to me?
After taking a look at the system panel to confirm that he had indeed advanced to an intermediate mage, Li Tianze still worried about entering his spiritual world and taking a look.
The stardust has turned into a nebula, and it has indeed become an intermediate level. My spiritual world has also become much more beautiful due to the expansion of the two stardusts.
Because advancement was as simple as eating and drinking, Li Tianze didn't get much sense of accomplishment from becoming an intermediate mage.
However, Li Tianze is still very interested in the subsequent awakening of the magic system. After all, this is his first time to experience the awakening ceremony. What system can he awaken?
