“You said the Deer Hunter brought a newcor in that day to modify his weapon, and was going to let him join the team-“
Bai Liu raised an eyebrow in slight surprise, “-but this newcor says he can join the Deer Hunter team, but his only condition for joining the team is that he asks you to modify my weapon for ?”
General Hua Gan wiped the corner of his mouth, “Yes, this newcor knows that I am the best reforr in the ga, and demands that I must reform your weapon, and that it be adapted to suit you, to greatly increase your combat and defense power.”
General Hua’s eyes fell on Bai Liu’s hands: “The idea of turning your wallet into a glove ca from this newcor.”
“He wants you to have a pair of black leather gloves that wrap around your hands perfectly, are suitable for the whip, and can be readily accessed for notes without being easily injured.”
“In order to recruit this newcor into the guild, our president agreed to this newcor’s outrageous demands.”
As he spoke, he could not help the anger that appeared on his face, but it was quickly suppressed.
“The chairman negotiated with your investor Charles to fulfill the newcor’s request.”
“This is a disgrace and a betrayal to the weapon modifiers within the Guild exclusively!”
Bai Liu released his hands from holding General Hua Gan down, “But you still said yes.”
Hua Gan let out a deep breath but Bai Liu had blocked his chest. Instead, he bowed his head in frustration, “……Yes, I cannot disobey the President’s request.”
After a pause, he added: “Even if you have my soul, I will not serve anyone else but the Deer Hunter’s Guild.”
Bai Liu looked up at Liu Jiayi next to him and gave her a questioning look. She shook her head with a sigh, indicating that it was ti to stop.
-As General Hua Gan said, he would rather die than serve soone outside the Guild.
Unlike the hordes of reserve team mbers, and unlike a statistician like Wang Shun who interacts with multiple people, the guild’s control over their reforrs was extraordinary, and even if Bai Liu got his hands on General Hua’s soul, it would be a difficult task to get this iron-hard, pig-headed1 guy to compromise.
Unlike players with constant desires, their desires and souls have long been polished and refined to blend with all things and beco invulnerable to swords and spears. They do not communicate with people, but only with the tools from their desire under them, an existence where the weapon is greater than the person.
And the guild they are in is the one in which they build their favourite weapon, otherwise, the reforrs would not choose to resign themselves to this guild.
They will never betray the weapon, let alone the guild they have built, so they are the most loyal of the guilds.
General Hua Gan is the best reforr and naturally the hardest bone among reforrs.
If Mu Sicheng hadn’t controlled the apprentice from the start, this guy would not have said a word.
After receiving a sign from Liu Jiayi, Bai Liu calmly changed his tune: “I won’t ask you to serve us all the ti, we just want to know why.”
“You have to protect your guild, and I have to protect my guild’s players.” Bai Liu smiled, “Can you give so useful information? Like who is that new player that asked you to reform for ?”
The question Bai Liu had asked didn’t touch the heart of the guild’s secrets, after all, sooner or later the players will have to be pulled out to et people.
General Hua Gan hesitated for a long ti, but chose to speak, “I’m not sure exactly who it was, when the president brought him here, he was wearing a mask full of blood.”
“But the guy’s skill weapon was a very long green plastic toy gun.”
Bai Liu slowly played with the long hook by the boiler: “Mr Hua, this kind of information is no way to send us off.”
General Hua Gan gritted his teeth and went on to say, “I won’t tell you what his skills are, but I can tell you what happened during the transformation.”
“The gun was made of a very strange, plastic-looking flare gun that dissolved in less than a dinsional second after being put in the lava.”
Hua Gan wrinkled his brow in rembrance, “I’ve transford many weapons, and I’ve never seen such a strange weapon, and such a strange weapon owner. When it was obvious that the weapon had dissolved this man was sitting next to it, humming without any hurry at all.”
“I had no choice but to keep putting materials into it in order to fish out the weapon, trying to saturate the lava’s solubility and precipitate the gun out.”
General Hua Gan said this with a bit of a troubled look on his face, “- half of the warehouse’s materials were thrown in and the lava didn’t move at all, and that’s when I realised sothing wasn’t right.”
“The material wasn’t dissolved at all, it was eaten up by this gun!”
“I threw so much more material into it that the guild’s warehouse was emptied and the gun hadn’t even had enough. Eventually, the president had to go to Charles to buy new material, and that’s when he got in touch with Charles.”
General Hua Gan exhaled a long breath, “Charles promised to supply us with a large amount of materials for free, but at the sa ti asked to modify the weapons for an entire team for you.”
“I kept betting materials into it that day, even betting a number of cut pieces of skillful weapons into it, but the gun never precipitated, like a giant black hole, never satisfied, devouring the desires and souls of others.”
“…… I’ve never seen such a greedy skill weapon.”
General Hua Gan looked at the fiery red boiler in a trance, “Finally, the President got a piece of dirty wallet leather from Charles and said it was a remnant for your initial weapon transformation.”
“I casted this leather in, the lava boiled, and I saw the remains of the gun after it had dissolved, gather around this leather and stack it up, like crystalline agglorates2 precipitating out of a saturated solution.”
Hua Gan would gaze up at Bai Liu, his voice dry, “My lava was on the verge of burning dry when a sniper rifle coalesced from the bottom of the pot, just so I could see it and begin to fear it.”
“If the process of forging your glove was what made feel controlled, then the gun felt to like a hole so deep that when one looked at it, their soul would be swallowed up, never to return.”
Tang Erda, who had been silent on the sidelines, caught his breath.
Bai Liu dropped the long hook and he seed to feel sothing as he ran two fingers over the tal ring at the opening of his glove and narrowed his eyes.
General Hua Gan noticed Bai Liu’s gaze and let out a long sigh, “Looks like you guessed it, yes, that tal ring on your glove is the material on that gun.”
“And it’s not residual material, it’s core material.”
“The newcor with all the blood on his mask, after getting that gun, asked what materials I needed for the glove transformation. A non-attacking skill weapon like a glove is very difficult to transform, and this newcor was not interested in his own weapon transformation process, but was very interested in yours.”
“I’d say if your wrist strength isn’t good enough, gloves generally go for lightness, but then most of the premium materials aren’t available for your gloves because they’re too heavy and therefore don’t increase the base value of the gloves.”
General Hua Gan took a deep breath, “Hearing say this, he asked if his gun was advanced enough to be used for material.”
“I said enough, completely enough, but your gun is already a fully modified gun and taking part of it off from whatever would destroy the integrity of your weapon.”
“And by that ti he had established a soul connection with the fully transford weapon, which was a derivative of his own, and he would have felt the pain of digging a hard piece off such a gun, even if it was marginal.”
“But he said, why should you use a rimfire3?” General Hua Gan’s expression twisted up as if he had seen so monster, “Then the guy just plucked out his own gun core, threw it into the lava and walked away.”
“…… I also quenched the weapon quite a bit in between, but it was like the core of his gun literally dissolved and didn’t respond at all.”
General Hua Gan looked at that tal ring on the edge of Bai Liu’s glove with complicated eyes, “But today, the mont your glove ca out of the oven, I saw this tal ring and I knew it was the material for his gun core.”
Bai Liu was silent for a mont, then rose, “Mr. Hua Gan, I make a promise as Bai Liu that I will not use your soul for anything harmful to your original intentions after this collaboration, but accordingly, I hope you can use your best efforts to reform my crew on this occasion.”
With that, Bai Liu waved his hand and Mu Sicheng stared suspiciously at General Hua for a few seconds before releasing his grip on the apprentice.
The apprentice sank to the ground in a weak heap, shrinking back into a ball of fear as he looked at the n.
General Hua Gan looked in astonishnt at Bai Liu, who had readily released him, and paused for a long ti before snorting and responding, “Take a man’s money and be loyal to him, n are guilty, weapons are not, whatever you have done, your weapons are innocent.”
“I will not count your wrongs against the ware, and will naturally treat them well.”
Bai Liu nodded rather admiringly, then smiled and said, “Apart from that, of course, I have an unpleasant request for Mr.Hua Gan.”
“I would like to place an outside order in your na to the King’s Guild appraiser.”
General Hua Gan asked, “What do you want to identify?”
Bai Liu, hands clasped, eyes obscured: “These gloves on my hands.”
General Hua Gan took up the conversation with understanding, “-and all the weapons that have been modified by , right? This is fine, feel free to appraise them and I’ll place your orders for you.”
With that, the reforr, whose soul was no longer in his hands, patted his pants and stood up, then helped the limp apprentice to his feet.
The man acted as if nothing had happened, ripping off the monkey’s paw that Mu Sicheng was holding his protégé by putting on a magnifying glass and starting to study it in earnest.
Bai Liu sat in the corner, his eyes lowered as he examined the gloves on his hands. Tang Erda stood behind him at so point and spoke in a quiet voice: “……It’s the clown.”
“Well, I guessed that.” Bai Liu said, “But Cen Buming has his reason for doing this for , the clown shouldn’t know now.”
“But again, his every move acted like he knew specifically ……” Bai Liu half closed his eyes, “If Joker knew what my skills were and what I would do, then his act of having this reforr take the initiative to transform my weapons, it is very much like wrapping this transformation as a gift for .”
Tang Erda said quietly, “Joker knows you can use your skills to take control of this reforr.”
Bai Liu tugged at the edge of his glove and pulled it off, he looked thoughtfully at the tal ring on the side of the glove, “And this material too, he took it upon himself to fuse the best materials to rectify the situation, then just waited for to co and receive it.”
“I know what he did, but the question is why did he do it?”
Tang Erda said, “If it was any other world line, I can see why the Joker would do it.”
Bai Liu looked up.
“The best material, the best reforr ……” Tang Erda sighed with mixed feelings, “The clown of the other world line always offers you the best because in his eyes only the best is worthy of you. “
