"What do you mean?" An expression of surprise finally appeared on Long Tianwu's face.
"He can try soul forging!"
Long Tianwu took a deep breath, but instead of getting excited, he became silent.
"What's wrong, Dad? This is great news! Shouldn't I be happy?" Long Yuxue asked puzzledly.
Long Tianwu sighed, "If this situation happened to someone else, I would certainly be happy, and this is indeed a great joy for our Blood God Corps. However, Gu You's identity is somewhat special."
"What is his identity?" Long Yuxue looked at her father.
Long Tianwu smiled bitterly, "He has a strong fighting ability and a powerful bloodline. He will soon become a seventh-level Saint Craftsman-level forger. Where do you think such an outstanding young man can be trained?"
Long Yuxue paused, "Wasn't he selected by the Spirit Pagoda?"
Long Tianwu looked at Long Yuxue tenderly, "The Spirit Pagoda can't cultivate such a talent. He can be said to be blessed by nature, and is a child of destiny. Under normal circumstances, he should be at the top of the continent in the future. Moreover, he is handsome, and Dad believes that he will have a great appeal. However, I must remind you to stay away from him. Dad only hopes that you will be safe."
Long Yuxue looked puzzled and asked, "Dad, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
"You will understand. My daughter, as a father, I understand one thing very well. His future is infinite, and..."
Long Yuxue's body trembled. She was not stupid, she understood everything.
But is this really fair?
An indescribable feeling instantly spread throughout her body. Long Yuxue turned around and ran, "I'll go ask him."
Watching his daughter running away quickly, Long Tianwu sighed inwardly, thinking that his daughter might really have a crush on that boy. Fortunately, he reminded her early, but he just hoped that Yuxue would not really fall into it.
Press the communicator on the table.
"General."
"Pass on my order. The exchange rate of merits earned by all auxiliary professions will be increased to 120%. They can be exchanged for higher values than before, but from now on, they cannot be used for promotion. Only combat merits can be used to increase military rank."
"Yes!"
It was too easy for a Saint-level forger on horseback to gain merit, so he couldn't have such a high rank so quickly. This was not a good thing for the Blood God Legion.
...Gu You didn't know that due to Long Yuxue's momentary excitement, his original plan to exchange forging merits for military rank was shattered.
After Rooney left with the cannon, a large number of customers did not arrive as Gu You had imagined. It was not until the afternoon that Rooney came with two officers, both female officers, one was a major, and the other was actually a colonel.
The two said nothing. After asking for the quotation, they each asked Gu You to make an accessory. All of them had to be at the spiritual forging level, and one accessory even required fusion forging.
Gu You once again demonstrated his powerful forging ability. Under the astonished gaze of the three female officers, he completed high-quality forging in a very short time.
After paying the tribute, the two female officers left with Rooney without saying anything else. Then, no more guests came to Guyou that day.
Long Yuxue didn't come again after the afternoon.
At night, after confirming that there would be no more customers, Gu You returned to the dormitory. He couldn't help but wonder, with his forging ability, how could there be no customers? But why did no customers appear later? What went wrong?
It was not until the next day that he understood why this happened. The reason was simple: Rooney blocked the news.
Everyone knows the value of a Saint Craftsman. Even if he is not a Saint Craftsman, he will soon be one. But everyone has some selfish motives. The spiritual forging the previous afternoon was a further test of his ability. The reason why no one came later was that Rooney and her girlfriends went back to prepare all the items they wanted to forge. While the reputation of Gu You, the young forging king, has not spread in the Blood God Legion, they must forge everything they want to forge first.
Therefore, the next morning, when Rooney came again, she brought a total of five female officers, and the workload they brought shocked even Gu You. Among them, the workload of three major female officers was to forge a full set of spirit-forged battle armor metal. For this, they even borrowed a large amount of merit last night to pay Gu You.
"Sister officers, you're not afraid of exhausting me! It takes a real Saint Craftsman several months to forge these things!" Gu You was so scared that he almost didn't dare to accept this big order. Under such circumstances, why would he join the army? He might as well go out and work to pay off the debt to the Spiritual Tower.
"Then I'll spend more time with you. I don't care. I've already paid. And once we tell others, I'm afraid your workload will be ten times higher." A female officer said in a playful tone.
"I'll take this order. It'll take four months." Gu You nodded with a smile. Indeed! If he spread his identity, I'm afraid there wouldn't be five people here today.
For ordinary battle armor masters, the meaning of the two-word battle armor is too great for them, because this is the real beginning of the battle armor, and a good foundation is undoubtedly a shortcut to future improvement. So, several female officers all said that they wanted the best, two chose to melt two metals, and one female officer who was more abundant and had a deep background in the legion even chose to melt three metals.
Adding the requirements for making various weapons, Gu You received more than 100,000 merits at once. This can definitely be considered as making a lot of money. You know, all the materials were provided by these female officers themselves! He only charged for the labor.
However, his excitement only lasted until noon. Under normal circumstances, 100,000 merits would be enough for him to be promoted directly to the rank of major. But at noon, someone from the Quartermaster Department came to his forging studio and told him that the Corps had decided that merits earned outside of combat could not be used to promote military rank.
"I will give this military supply department to ***..." Gu You roared to the sky. What's the point of taking the order? Is he going to use these merits to buy food?
So he made a major decision. He put up a sign outside the blacksmith's door - he would not accept long-term large orders.
"Why?" Long Yuxue finally came. When she saw the sign hanging outside the forging studio, she couldn't help but ask Gu You.
