After all, she was not yet legendary.
She looked at Duo Lai.
She was not worried that Duo Lai couldn't defeat the two Gold Colossus Statues.
The question was how to fight them.
Duo Lai looked at Sophia, its eyes signaling: Should I just throw a Fireball and smash these two guys?
Sophia hurriedly responded with a look: No! Don't even think about it!
One Fireball from Duo Lai and the entire Iron Stone Mountain was likely to be leveled.
"Since we've co to the Shen Luo Domain, let's follow the rules of the Shen Luo Domain. It's just two iron dummies after all,"
Sophia said.
She was ready to take action herself.
At that mont, Jun by her side called out, asserting its presence.
anwhile, in the distance...
Boom——
A fifteen-ter-tall Gold Colossus Statue, wielding a giant halberd, stirred up a tsunami-like storm surge, knocking a Fierce Fla Flying Dragon hundreds of ters away.
The Fierce Fla Flying Dragon tumbled to the ground, its feathers broken, its flesh a bloody blur, a sight of sheer misery.
Initially, many Lords sent their strongn to fight for a chance.
By now, the number of strongn daring to challenge the Gold Colossus Statues had dwindled.
Defeat was a minor matter.
But an accidental serious injury, especially one that caused fundantal harm difficult to heal, was a major concern.
When Jun stepped forward, pairs of eyes turned its way.
"A flying combatant? Using aerial tactics to stall for ti is indeed good. However, rely being able to fly is far from enough to last three minutes in the hands of these two Gold Colossus Statues,"
comnted a Lord.
Jun disdainfully shook its head.
Who was it?
It was the old general from Tianyuan City, the leader of the flying brigade, the Divine Bird who mastered the storm, Lord Jun.
It could easily deal with these two iron dummies without even having to fly high, let alone with both wings bound.
It was Lord Jun with an Epic Three Stars authority after all!
"Skill: Sigh of the Wind God"
"Description: Under Jun's control, the force of the wind has conceptual killing powers like cutting and annihilating."
A simple, brutal god-level killing skill.
Jun could now only unleash a fraction of the Sigh of the Wind God's power, yet even so, the Sigh of the Wind God's terror still made Jun tremble, forcing it to use the skill carefully for fear of accidentally losing its life.
Today, it wanted to give it a try.
Of course, it wouldn't use its full power, but these two huge iron dummies should be able to withstand a bit... right?
The battle started quickly.
Jun whipped up a violent and fierce cyan storm; the entire world seed to turn azure, engulfed by the endless tempest.
The two Gold Colossus Statues, though massive, couldn't move an inch under the storm's embrace.
From their bodies ca a grating, ear-piercing sound of being slashed.
The next mont...
Boom——
The cyan storm dispersed.
And the two Gold Colossus Statues were already lying on the ground.
Everything below their knees had vanished without leaving a trace.
This... hiss...!
"What kind of skill is that! Isn't that too overpowered? Aren't the Gold Colossus Statues known for their defense?"
exclaid a Lord in shock.
Including Lord Shen Mao.
Jun retracted its wings slightly and looked towards Duo Lai and Sophia. It seed to have caused a bit of an overreaction; could this cause trouble?
In the distance, the Legendary Realm strongman from the Golden Commonwealth responsible for sealing the mountain had a sowhat dark expression. His piercing gaze was fixed on Jun.
An indescribable oppressive force bore down on them.
Lord Shen Mao ca back to her senses, staring at the Legendary Realm figure from the Golden Commonwealth, and said, "Injuries are inevitable in a contest, that's the rule you set yourself."
But before she could finish speaking, Duo Lai stepped forward.
With each step it took, the world around buzzed, and multicolored elental particles interwove, resonating.
A powerful oppressive force surged forward, like an avalanche or a tsunami.
Could this be... legendary?
Lord Shen Mao's eyes widened, and she clenched a grass stalk in her hand.
...
In the end, of course, nothing happened.
The rules had been set by Duke Gold himself, and the Gold Colossus Statues had previously injured many challengers severely.
Duke Gold had to abide by the rules; he couldn't bend them to his will.
Of course, if this squad only had a Four-order Peak Strongman in charge, the Golden Commonwealth's Legendary Realm wouldn't hesitate to teach this bird a lesson.
But, this squad was led by soone from the Legendary Realm.
This Legendary Realm being also brought with him indescribable pressure.
Then... there was nothing to worry about.
Sophia and the others followed Lord Shen Mao up to Iron Stone Mountain, heading straight for the workshop of Gunner Master Roy.
"Damn it, how many tis have I said it! How many tis! I don't follow any lord, and if soone wants to make firearms, fine, but don't bother with anything else!"
"Mr. Roy, we can provide you with high-level Legendary Cultivation Manuals and even find rare dicines and treasures to heal foundational injuries; don't you want these? Don't you want to go further and reach higher realms? You can have a higher future."
"No, don't disturb my business, next."
A lord dressed in a golden robe struggled to keep his composure.
He still maintained his expression, not exploding into a tirade.
If he did, wouldn't he be pushing the opportunity to recruit this epic hero toward other lords?
I'll endure!
He coldly glanced at Shen Mao and the arriving group that included Duo Lai.
He didn't speak, nor did he walk away; he just stood there at a distance.
Gunner Master Roy didn't even lift his head as he asked, "What kind of firearm do you want to make?"
Sophia replied, "It's not about making weapons; we have another request."
"Damn..."
Roy was about to roar in frustration, but Sophia anticipated his outburst and quickly said, "It's not about recruitnt. I'm asking on behalf of our lord, would Mr. Roy consider taking the position of an instructor to teach so necessary skills and firearms modification skills to gunners?"
She glanced around, "We can also send apprentices here."
"Damn... Well, that's not entirely impossible."
Roy's tone gradually softened, and after a mont of thought he said, "It's a deal, but you've got to pay, and also work as my assistants. And, I won't teach with patience; if they can't take it, they'd better pack up and leave."
Sophia: "Agreed, it's settled."
...
A few days later.
By this ti, Mu Yuan had already dined with Lord Shen Mao and led his team back to his own territory.
anwhile, Sophia and Duo Lai headed back up Iron Stone Mountain again, leading a team.
They brought a few 'apprentices.'
The ranks of these 'apprentices' were either First-order Peak or Second-order—courtesy of Mu Yuan utilizing the 'baptism opportunities' granted by heaven and earth previously.
Because they needed to learn a trade, they tried to match as closely as possible to the master gunner in their ranks. Mu Yuan picked several Musketeers who showed promise in learning and training, giving them the baptism of evolution ahead of ti.
Besides gunpowder, another Gunner Master was born.
Additionally, there were four gunnery experts—these are Three Stars level Excellence troops, evolved from Royal Musketeers and Dual Gun Rangers.
In total, six people, all from the Cannon Series profession.
Presumably, they must have great compatibility with Gunner Master Roy, and the efficiency of their learning should be outstanding.
Mu Yuan paid, and these apprentices were decent free labor, so Roy was quite polite to Sophia and the others, at least not grimacing.
"So these are the six fellas, huh."
"Yes, they are all firearms professionals, and they seem well-outfitted."
Roy could see the naivety in these few, labeled as gunpowder.
All greenhorns.
However...
His brows suddenly knitted, and his eyes slowly focused on Gunpowder and another person.
He, a Gunner Master!
No one understood the Gunner Master better than he!
But his experience and intuition couldn't help but determine that the two young people in front of him were both Gunner Masters, right?
The others seed like gunnery experts?
Where did so many high-order Cannon Series professionals co from?
He looked towards Sophia for confirmation, careful to ensure accuracy.
Sophia didn't deny; she said, "Our lord said to entrust these few, including Gunpowder, to the care of Master Roy."
"That's no problem."
Roy added, "I will teach them well, seriously."
All six possessed ranks either as gunnery experts or Gunner Masters; they were truly top-tier seeds born to learn firearms.
He felt a fondness for talent.
Just that...
How did their lord co by so many elite ranks in the Cannon Series? Surely he couldn't be the illegitimate child of the god of firearms?
In the distance, Duke Gold, who often climbed up Iron Stone Mountain, saw this scene and couldn't help pondering:
"Could it be that sending apprentices to Gunner Master Roy is the correct way to forge a closer relationship?"
It seed like he got the idea, as a slight smile ford on his lips.
He instructed his subordinates.
"Go, find three hundred apprentices for Duke Gold."
