Divine Blacksmith: Rewards From My Weapons - Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Mystic-Grade Four Piece Kitchenware Set?

Feng Ling thought of the frequency of these demon beasts appearing recently. He wondered how long such an abnormal event could be hidden from the public…

Feng Ling stood in the courtyard for a while and then stopped thinking about it.

If the sky fell, someone tall would hold it up. From now on, his memories would be erased. He wouldn’t know about demons, and he wouldn’t notice anything unusual.

At night, Feng Ling did not let Nine Rings work overtime. He revised what he had learned recently and went to bed early.

Lei Ting and the other two who had left were in a bad mood.

They brought the black python back to the Peaceful Spirit Bureau in Mu Liang City.

By this time, Zeng Shiwu had been picked up. She was injured after all. It was clear that the Yama had tracked her. She was not safe.

Most of the civilians were already resting at home at this hour, but it was still busy at the Peaceful Spirit Bureau.

When the Thunder Squad returned, they asked directly to see the deputy director. This made the combat team leader, Lin Pin, realize the seriousness of the matter.

Soon, more than a dozen people were seated in the conference room. The flash drive they had gotten from Feng Ling was already plugged into the projector.

After listening to Lei Ting’s report, everyone’s expressions were ugly.

They could think of whatever Lei Ting could think of.

Deputy Chief Chen Baisheng’s old face darkened, but he still took the initiative to speak. “It has been nearly a month since the email was sent. Even though there are indeed factors that are out of our control, but our Mu Liang City’s Peaceful Spirit Bureau still has to bear the main responsibility.”

“The seriousness of the matter might be beyond our imagination. It would be best if the dozen or so half-rank demon beasts were really dealt with by someone. However, if they enter the forest, we have to be prepared for them to appear at any time.”

Everyone below was speechless. Chen Baisheng looked at Lin Pin. “Team Leader Lin, what do you think about this matter?”

Lin Pin said seriously, “Deputy Chief, I think the most important thing now is to seal off that area and ensure that the new demon beasts won’t cause chaos.”

“Secondly, we need to investigate the whereabouts of the demon beasts from before. If they fled into the forest, we have to kill them as soon as possible to prevent them from threatening civilians. If they were killed, then we have to find this expert as soon as possible.”

“Personally, I think there is such an expert. After all, the yama was killed by a mysterious expert a month ago.”

Chen Baisheng nodded and looked at the others. “Does anyone have any other thoughts?”

“As for the trace of demon beasts, we can apply for satellites. Since there’s no cover around that area , won’t it be easy to know where the demon beasts are?” Someone suggested.

“This was originally not a problem, but a few days ago… all the satellites were deployed elsewhere, so we have no records at all.”

“Erm…”

“This is indeed very difficult. After all, that place is surrounded by forest on both sides. If demon beasts really enter, it will be very difficult for us to distinguish them. Most importantly, the forest is too dangerous, and there are too few ranked experts…”

The group discussed for a long time but did not come up with anything. In the end, Chen Baisheng decided to first carry out a regional blockade to ensure the safety of the civilians before conducting a regional inspection and search according to the situation.

There was no choice. The Peaceful Spirit Bureau was too short-staffed.

This was especially true for ranked experts. Experts who could battle themselves were indeed more useful in certain aspects than a small combat group.

“That’s for now. Now, there’s another matter at hand.”

Chen Baisheng waved at Zeng Shiwu. Zeng Shiwu understood and walked to the front.

The group was confused. What was going on? There were pots and shovels. Did they have to cook on the spot?

“The kitchenware that everyone is seeing now is extraordinary,” Zeng Shiwu said as he raised the black pot and kitchen knife. “These two are mid-tier Mystic-grade items.”

She held up the spatula and spoon again. “These two are top-grade Mystic-grade items.”

There was silence for two or three seconds. Then… someone couldn’t help but say,

“What do you mean, what mid-tier and top-tier Mystic-grade items?”

“Er, it can’t be what I think it is?”

“You mean these are mid-tier Mystic-grade black wok and kitchen knife? And then two top-tier Mystic-grade vegetable shovels and soup spoons?”

The Thunder Squad sitting at the back could not help but smile bitterly when they saw everyone’s reaction.

That’s right. Who would have thought that a black pot was actually a mid-tier Mystic-grade item?

It was really a four-piece Mystic-grade kitchenware set.

“Quiet!”

When Chen Baisheng spoke, everyone fell silent. However, their gazes were still fixed on the four-piece set in Zeng Shiwu’s hands.

“These… ahem, these four kitchenware in Shiwu’s hands are all of Mystic-grade.”

After receiving Chen Baisheng’s confirmation, three question marks appeared above everyone’s heads.

Mystic-gradekitchenware. How bored would a Master Forger be to make them?

However, someone saw the main point and couldn’t help but ask, “Deputy Director, the four pieces in Miss Zeng’s hands… Well, she didn’t buy them today, did she?”

“That’s right. They were bought. And it only cost 95 yuan,” Chen Baisheng admitted with a nod.

“Huh?”

Three more big question marks appeared above everyone’s heads.

‘She bought four Mystic-grade items for ninety-five dollars?’

Uh, even if it was four mystic-grade kitchenware, they were still Mystic-grade.

“Deputy Director, what’s going on?” Someone could not help but ask.

“Shiwu, tell me what happened.” Chen Baisheng’s words brought everyone’s attention back to Zeng Shiwu.

Zeng Shiwu nodded. First, she recounted the assassination she had encountered today and how she had used the black pot and kitchen knife to counterattack. Then, she explained the origins of the black pot.

Everyone’s expressions changed as she explained, but at the end, they all looked strange.

98 yuan rounded down to 90 yuan… Did he really gave away mystic-grade equipment like as though they were cheap cabbages?

“Since everyone knows what’s going on, what we need to discuss next is how to deal with this person who might be a Master Forger…”

The late autumn morning lit up rather late in the day, but it did not affect Feng Ling’s routine.

Feng Ling had already set up his stance in the small courtyard with the crescent moon above his head. He quietly activated the Heaven and Earth Crossing Technique, and five cauldrons enveloped him.

Yesterday, he had gained ten years of cultivation. This morning, he activated the breathing technique and sensed something different.

The spiritual energy in his body flowed endlessly, and the comfort it brought was simply fascinating.

The coolness of the morning was instantly dispelled, and Feng Ling’s blood began to boil.

Feng Ling began to move around. Every breath he took brought about an unusual dull sound. It was really shocking.

And as the night receded, purple light filled the horizon.

Feng Ling stopped cultivating and stood up. His soul began to outline in his soul sea and also began to digest the remaining soul power.

This soul power was majestic and pure. The mysterious colors in the east seemed to resonate with him as he continued to absorb it.

The “Eastern Purple Qi” scene in his mind became more complete, and Feng Ling’s aura became more and more ethereal and mysterious.

Feng Ling let out a long breath and went to open the door with a smile after the Purple Qi dissipated.
