Volume 44 Chapter 15 New Friends

This time, Zhang Tie consumed all the three demon land knights he captured from the airship brigade escorted by Xiangshan County this time, because the strength of these three demon land knights varies, they are not top-notch, and they are using purgatory reincarnation After secretly refining the water chakras of the three demon earth knights, Zhang Tie also consumed more than 800 water element crystals to condense his water chakras to 324 scales.

Zhang Tie completed this advancement quietly in the hotel apartment.

After sitting cross-legged on the bed in the bedroom all night, the advanced Zhang Tie got out of bed, stretched his muscles and bones, and then calmly went to the bathroom to wash up.

Turning on the faucet in the bathroom and washing his face, Zhang Tie raised his head. What appeared in the mirror was the face of a Chinese man in his forties with water droplets hanging on his face and a gentle face with sharp eyes. This face , which is the appearance of Zhang Tie after using the phantom veins to disguise himself. For the past two months, he has been using this face in Tiangong City. His current name is Iron Longbow.

Because Zhang Tie had never shown his attainments in rune refining before, no one in Tiangong City would recognize Zhang Tie by seeing the name Iron Longbow from the back to the front.

There are too many rune refiners in Tiangong City. Apart from Taixia, many rune refiners from other subcontinents also gather here. Almost every day, new faces come and some old faces leave, so There is nothing wrong with Zhang Tie's current face.

"The world has changed nine times, do we still want to stay in Tiangong City?" Zhang Tie murmured to himself in the mirror, and then shook his head.

The advanced Nine Transformations of the Earth did not bring too many surprises to Zhang Tie, and after staying in Tiangong City for two months, Zhang Tie also knew how much he would face if he wanted to realize his idea. Difficulties.

For hundreds of years, in Tiangong City, Zhang Tie is not the first rune refiner who wants to make weapons that can kill knights, but in these hundreds of years, no one has ever succeeded. The road of cultivation seems to be a more difficult, steeper and more difficult road to climb.

In Xuanyuan Hill's Soul Tribulation Realm, Zhang Tie checked the confidential information of the various trade union headquarters of the human race in the past two months, only to find that not only himself, but even the entire Taixia and the seven major sects were carrying out this kind of work. The secret study of weapons and methods that can kill knights has become one of the top secret topics of the Human Rune Refiner's Union, the Alchemist's Union, the Alchemist's Union, and the Beast Master's Union for hundreds of years. Want to invent mechanical equipment that can kill knights, alchemists want to invent more powerful alchemy bombs that can kill knights under normal circumstances, and the alchemist union is developing terrifying voodoo that can kill knights, The Beast Master Union is cultivating some weird things that can devour knights—all of this is done in the name of fighting against the demons, but do the top professionals of the various unions behind it have the ability to kill knights? No one knows the idea of ​​being pulled down from the throne of the ruler of the human race.

The reason why alchemists are good is that among all non-knight professions, so far, only the alchemy bombs made by alchemists can kill black iron knights in some specific environments, and when they reach the earth At the first level of knights, it is already difficult to be killed by alchemy bombs, and the research results of other trade unions have not reached such a height.

If any professional can really invent something that can kill knights, then there is no doubt that that person will become a well-deserved king in that profession, but so far, such a king has not really appeared.

Faced with such a difficult challenge, even Edward in the Black Iron Castle has no way to provide him with more help. Everything can only be done by himself. Edward's rune refining level has reached the level of a rune refining master. Zhang Tie, a master craftsman, is still a level above. Edward can create what he specifies, but Edward cannot conduct groundbreaking research and inventions. All his knowledge and skills are fixed.

Zhang Tie's confidence has not been shaken, but during the time in Tiangong City, he has seen more clearly what the formidable challenge he is about to face is. What is in front of him is a high mountain, and no one can overcome it with one step. From the foot of the mountain to the top.

After washing up in the room, Zhang Tie tidied up and left the apartment. Before going out, he entered and exited the Black Iron Castle with lightning speed, and ate the redemptive fruit of a golden unicorn fairy. With his mouth open, he opened the door of the apartment.

This apartment is a hotel called Steam World in Tiangong City. There are many hotels specially prepared for rune alchemists in Tiangong City. The hotel Zhang Tie chose is neither the best nor the worst. Like Zhang Tie's current identity and appearance, he is not noticeable at all.

Tiangong City is built on the largest mining area in Bingzhou, so the most common thing in Tiangong City is metal. If anyone wants to mine, just find a hoe and dig underground anywhere in Tiangong City. A few meters away, you can see high-quality ferromanganese ore.

When Zhang Tie walked out of the hotel, it was already afternoon, and the entire Tiangong City was busy.

In other Grade A cities in Taixia, Zhang Tie has rarely seen such a situation with many chimneys, but in Tiangong City, such a situation is very common. Surrounded by large and small chimneys, the black smoke from the chimneys blurred the blue sky in Tiangong City. Just as he walked out of the hotel, Zhang Tie smelled the lingering smoke in the air. That faint smell of coal tar.

From the perspective of environmental protection, Tiangong City is a city with serious industrial pollution. No matter what era, the roar of steel and machinery can never be compatible with the green mountains and green waters. However, no one cares about the people in Tiangong City This, even the smog in the sky of Tiangong City, which looks like blue but not blue, has a special name in Bingzhou - Tiangong blue.

Among the cities Zhang Tie has seen, the only city with the temperament of Tiangong City is Karur, the city of machines on the Weiyi subcontinent. If Karur can be ten times more prosperous, and its area will be expanded by one hundred times , almost the same as Tiangong City.

With the advent of the holy war, especially last year when the demons invaded Taixia, the orders and output of the battle forts and various steam weapon factories produced in Tiangong City ushered in an explosive growth. The ups and downs in the sky of Gongcheng are transporting the products produced in Tiangong City to all directions.

Zhang Tie looked up at the sky, and then, like a passer-by on the road, he pulled up the dust mask on the hood to cover half of his face, and after leaving the hotel fifty meters away, he jumped on the A free tram that has just passed the road outside the hotel is heading for the Dongcheng District of Tiangong City...

More than ten minutes later, after changing to two trams, Zhang Tie got out of the car, walked through the streets and alleys of Tiangong City familiarly for a few minutes, and came to a building made entirely of steel components. The entrance of a building with a strange and complex geometric shape, on the signboard above the entrance.

This building didn't have any signage, and there wasn't any post at the door. In front of Zhang Tie, there was only a thick iron door with tight seams and a special device for the lock on the outside of the iron door.

Zhang Tie took out a gold coin, and stuffed it into the gap where a gold coin could just be stuffed in the device at the lock position. Then, with a mental power move, he directly used his finger to insert a piece of mithril rune next to the position of the gold coin. An ordinary fortification rune symbol was written on the writing board. Under the effect of the gold coin and the rune, the thick iron door slowly opened automatically, allowing Zhang Tie to step inside.

Here is a meeting place for rune refiners in Tiangong City. The entry fee for each entry is one gold coin, and you must reach the level of a secret rune craftsman. "Show your hands on the secret silver rune writing board at the door ", that door will open automatically, among other things, just the iron door here that must be opened with a gold coin and a rune is a high-level rune refining equipment.

Behind the door was an aisle. Two burly men stood behind the door to ensure that only one person came in. After passing through that aisle, Zhang Tie entered a bar.

Even in the daytime, there are already many people gathered in this bar, and everyone is sitting and talking together in twos and threes.

As soon as Zhang Tie came in, two people at a table in the bar waved to Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie pulled down the dust mask on his hood, walked over, pulled a chair beside the table, and sat down.

Sitting at the edge of the table were two Chinese rune refiners, each of whom seemed to be over fifty years old. One was tall and strong and slovenly, with a beard and hair that grew almost together, while the other wore a A man with glasses should look more refined.

"Old Tie, you came late today, I thought you wouldn't come?" The rune refiner with a rough build said carelessly.

"Another bright point was lit today, so it's a little late!" Zhang Tie said calmly, took the wine bottle on the table by himself, and poured himself a glass of lemon wine—most of the rune refiners Masters don’t like alcohol, because alcohol can dull the brain and cause fluctuations in mental power. After drinking for a long time, it can even cause hand tremors. This is a taboo for rune refiners. The lemon in the bar Although the wine is called wine, its alcohol content is very low, just like the taste of soda and lady champagne. This is also the most common drink for rune refiners who come here.

"Hahaha, old iron, do you still want to become a knight? If there is such a day, I will definitely give you a big gift when you wait for the wheel-turning ceremony..." The rough rune refiner laughed loudly, and forced Zhang Tie Two pats on the shoulder.

This is of course a joke, because Zhang Tie’s current role as Iron Longbow is, so far, just a tenth-level strong fighter who has just mastered the skill of fighting spirit, which is also in line with most rune refiners. The strength level of the master, a group of people who have the talent of rune refining masters and spend most of their time in this field and can achieve extraordinary achievements, rarely can make a big breakthrough in cultivation, all those who can advance to the secret More than ninety-nine percent of the rune refiners at the level of rune craftsmen and above have very little possibility of becoming knights throughout their lives. This is the objective law of the development and growth of things. Just like a great athlete and an accomplished pianist are hardly the same person, even if a qualified person works hard, it is remarkable to be able to achieve something in one field in his life. Those who can span more than two People who have achieved something in the field are absolutely rare.

The reason why the demon refining Zhao Yuan is awesome is that he is not only a super alchemist, but also a powerful sky knight. There are not many people like Zhao Yuan who are refining the demon in the whole Taixia.

Zhang Tie is also very good, he is not only a knight, but also a rune refiner, and a powerful beast master, but Zhang Tie's cattle are built on the plundered fruits produced by the black iron fort and small trees. As a result, if Zhang Tie wants to achieve his current level of master craftsman in the field of rune refining, it can only be a dream.

The two rune refiners sitting at this table with Zhang Tie are new friends Zhang Tie met in Tiangong City in the past two months. He is one of the top snakes in Tiangong City. This guy has been in Tiangong City for more than 50 years. According to him, there is nothing he can't do in Tiangong City.

Another exquisite and refined rune refiner is Zhu Daqian. Zhu Daqian was born in a wealthy Taixia family. According to him, the reason why he came to Tiangong City was that he was sent to Tiangong City with high hopes from his family to wait for him. One day after advancing to the "Carpenter Sect", Zhang Tie believed it when he returned to the family to be his own. But one time, Zhu Daqian slipped his mouth after drinking lemon wine and got drunk, and Zhang Tie knew that this guy was at home. Because a woman was kicked out of the house by the patriarch and sent to Tiangong City.

A person can get drunk by drinking a little lemon wine. The key point is that this person even named him Zhu Daqian. Zhang Tie was also speechless, and every time he saw Lin Xiuxian who didn't take a bath for a week or two, and the daily Zhu Daqian, who had to insist on changing a set of clothes and even the dust mask he wore with the dust-cleaning rune, was together. Zhang Tie felt that these two people had chosen the wrong names. Swap it, it will probably be more in tune.

"Have you brought what I want?" Zhang Tie said, his eyes turned to a half-meter-long lead bucket beside Lin Xiuxian... 〖To be continued〗
