Reborn with Infinity Money System, I was Worshipped by All Universes! Chapter76-The New Use of the Lv9 Incinerator
"You truly are birds of a feather, flocking together. Sticking with Velen, you've fallen so low!"
Robert, his lips turning purple from anger, stared at Alan with deep disappointnt.
Alan remained unfazed, smiling as he said, "Senator Robert, Velen is different from anyone you've ever t—he is one of a kind. I used to think the sa way as you, but now, I've co to terms with it."
As he spoke, Alan walked into Velen's courtyard and began constructing a restroom.
Seeing Alan speak so highly of Velen, Robert grew even more furious.
Especially when he realized that Velen had given Alan an Lv9 furnace, while he himself hadn't received so much as a shadow of one.
Was this blatant discrimination against the elderly?
He was rely a young man of nearly a thousand months, after all!
Filled with resentnt, Robert no longer wished to stay in this place that only brought him heartache. With a casual wave of his hand, he turned and left with a sense of despondency.
"It's a world for the young now... I really am getting old, too conservative in my thinking."
Just as he returned to his own courtyard, preparing to drown his sorrows in alcohol, he suddenly saw Master Ethan standing there.
"Senator Robert, I truly underestimated you. I never imagined your auction house had amassed such wealth, to the point of casually leaving an Lv9 furnace in the yard!"
Seeing Robert return, Ethan looked at him with admiration, his face full of shock.
Robert was utterly confused by Ethan's words.
Lv9 furnace?
Where the hell did he get an Lv9 furnace?!
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the corner of his eye caught sight of an Lv9 furnace casually placed in his courtyard.
He was instantly stunned.
The next mont, as he realized what was happening, his aged face was suddenly filled with ecstatic joy.
"That Velen! Now that's what I call impressive!"
"Senator Robert, you know, though I've ascended to the rank of Master Blacksmith, I have yet to create a truly famous work. I was planning to forge an Lv9 furnace to establish my reputation, but Lv9 furnaces are incredibly rare and always tightly guarded treasures.
"If I could properly study this furnace, my success rate in forging would improve drastically!"
Ethan's voice carried a pleading tone.
An Lv9 furnace was right before him!
How could he, a master blacksmith, not be overwheld with excitent?!
Thus, despite outranking Robert in both level and prestige, he still had to humble himself and beg.
Robert thought for a mont and had no intention of refusing.
After all, Ethan wasn't just a top-tier Ascended Rank Lv9 figure—he was also a Master Blacksmith.
In every aspect, he was far superior. If not for both of them being part of Fortress and holding the sa rank of Senatorial Advisor, Robert would have to respectfully call Ethan "Master" anywhere else!
At the sa ti, seeing such a prestigious figure humbling himself before him was deeply satisfying to Robert.
It was a dream he never dared to imagine!
Imdiately, Robert straightened his back, waved his hand grandly, and said:
"Master Ethan, take the Lv9 furnace and study it all you like. No need for formalities. I was only using it as a heater anyway."
The mont he finished speaking, Robert saw Master Ethan's mouth fall open, his face full of shock, as if he were seeing him for the first ti and having his entire worldview reshaped.
Seeing this, Robert felt a sense of bliss wash over him!
In that mont, he finally understood why Velen was so generous with his wealth—it felt incredible!
The spiritual thrill of flaunting his wealth brought Robert an unparalleled sense of euphoria!
Thinking about it now, he realized he had indeed placed far too much importance on the Lv9 furnace before.
Seeing Robert so nonchalantly grant him access to the furnace, Ethan was utterly stunned.
To any alchemist, an Lv9 furnace was of paramount importance. Others wouldn't even let soone else look at theirs, guarding it as if it were their own life.
Yet Robert had just handed his over so casually!
"As Senators of Fortress, it's only natural that we help each other!" Robert said with conviction.
Ethan, deeply moved, replied, "Senator Robert, I won't say more, but I will rember this kindness. I will repay you in full in the future!"
With that, he excitedly carried the Lv9 furnace and left.
Watching Ethan's ecstatic departure, Robert imdiately rushed toward Velen's courtyard.
"Improving Fortress's environnt is everyone's responsibility! How could I not take part in building incinerators and restrooms?"
...
"Hahaha! An Lv9 furnace! My life is complete—I actually get to see such a legendary item up close and even study it!"
"I must let Victoria join in as well. It will be incredibly beneficial for her future!"
"It seems joining Fortress was truly a wise decision!"
With the Lv9 furnace slung over his shoulder, Ethan couldn't stop smiling.
Once he fully understood the workings of an Lv9 furnace, his title as a Master Blacksmith would be firmly cented!
Just as he was envisioning a bright future, his eyes happened to glance at Alan's courtyard.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
"What the hell? Has Fortress reached such an unfathomable level of wealth?
"A re Lv3 alchemist has an Lv9 furnace?!"
He looked at the furnace in his hands.
His excitent instantly deflated.
What the hell—wasn't an Lv9 furnace supposed to be rare?!
Why did it seem like they were completely worthless in Fortress?
Shaking his head, he suppressed his inner turmoil and continued toward his courtyard.
He hadn't walked far before he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Because right in front of Velen...
There were seven Lv9 furnaces!
Each one emitted an incomparably intense heat!
Master Ethan was utterly petrified.
He suddenly felt like the Lv9 furnace on his shoulder wasn't so special anymore.
Even his grand plan to forge an Lv9 furnace was now dead on arrival.
Lv9 furnaces clearly weren't rare in Fortress!
Velen had them casually scattered around, like items at a street stall.
Looking at Velen's collection of furnaces, and recalling that both Robert and Alan had Lv9 furnaces that looked remarkably similar, he deduced that Velen must have given them out.
But then... why did the two assassins look so troubled?
Could even a tycoon like Velen have worries?
Master Ethan was baffled but still walked up to Velen and set down the furnace he was carrying.
"Velen, what's troubling you?" he asked curiously.
Velen looked at Ethan and imdiately grew excited.
"Master Ethan, what do I do with all these Lv9 furnaces? I can't even use them all!
"How is anyone supposed to be a tycoon like this?"
Ethan was at a loss for words.
He had been worried that Velen was facing so difficulty... but it turned out his "trouble" was that he didn't know how to spend his wealth!
After a long silence, Ethan finally picked up the Lv9 furnace again and said seriously,
"Velen, I don't understand wealth and extravagance. I'm just a blacksmith. But if you need weapons or armor, I can forge them for you."
Saying this, he prepared to leave.
Velen's words had struck him like a dagger to the heart, and he wasn't sure he could take any more.
But then, Velen suddenly exclaid in realization, "Master Ethan, you truly deserve your title! You've opened my eyes!"
"...Huh?"
Ethan was stunned.
What had he just said?
Did Velen misunderstand sothing?
But Velen, looking absolutely thrilled, pointed at the furnaces and said,
"Master Ethan, I owe you for this one—take your pick!"
Ethan was even more confused.
What had he done to earn this?
Seeing his bewildered expression, Velen grinned and explained,
"Master Ethan, don't hold back! From now on, if soone annoys you, just smash them with a furnace!"
"???"
Ethan's mouth twitched.
Was this guy even speaking human language?!
That was an Lv9 furnace, and he wanted to use it as a throwing weapon?!
But then, Ethan's eyes suddenly lit up.
He finally understood—Velen was planning to use Lv9 furnaces as weapons!
"Velen, the Lv9 furnace is not ant to be used the way you're thinking. What I just said was rely from the perspective of my profession as a blacksmith!"
Master Ethan, upon realizing what Velen was implying, imdiately grew serious and looked at him intently.
Velen remained unfazed and countered, "Master Ethan, purely from the perspective of a master blacksmith, isn't an Lv9 furnace sturdy enough?"
Master Ethan instinctively wanted to refute, but he hesitated.
Lv9 furnaces were designed to withstand extre heat and pressure, making them comparable to top-tier armor in durability, even though they lacked special abilities.
So, he nodded. "It is sturdy, but—"
"Then, do you think this furnace is heavy enough?"
"An Lv9 furnace is forged through countless rounds of refinent and fusion of various alloys, so of course, it is heavy, but—"
"But what? It's sturdy enough, heavy enough, and it even has a fire effect—doesn't that make it the ultimate offensive and defensive magical weapon?"
Velen's eyes were firm as he stared at Master Ethan.
Master Ethan scratched his head. What Velen said actually made sense.
But this was an Lv9 furnace—an alchemist's treasure!
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the strange excitent bubbling up inside him and objected, "Velen, what you say might have so logic, but the amount of mana required to wield an Lv9 furnace is imnse. In actual combat, it would be completely impractical."
As a master blacksmith and a berserker, he was naturally well-versed in combat.
Lv9 furnaces were indeed powerful, but they were unwieldy and consud too much mana. Against a true expert, they would be nothing more than a joke.
Velen, however, remained calm. He lightly tapped the surface of the Lv9 furnace, producing a deep, tallic echo.
"Master Ethan, as an Ascended Rank awakener, how long would it take you to destroy an Lv9 furnace?"
Master Ethan fell silent for a mont before answering seriously, "With my current strength, even if I went all out, I wouldn't be able to break through the Lv9 furnace's defenses—unless I used specialized flas to soften it first."
As he finished speaking, his voice grew hoarse, because he had suddenly realized sothing.
An Lv9 furnace was fundantally beyond the destruction capabilities of an Ascended Rank awakener using conventional ans!
Which ant…
Velen's idea was actually feasible.
Even if it wasn't the most agile of weapons, it was an unmatched defensive tool!
With this realization, Master Ethan slung an Lv9 furnace over his shoulder and walked off. With each step, Fortress seed to tremble ever so slightly.
Having figured out the perfect way to flaunt his wealth, Velen stored the remaining furnaces in his spatial bag.
"Senator Robert, thank you!"
While passing by Velen's courtyard, Master Ethan sensed Robert's presence and imdiately approached, carrying two Lv9 furnaces.
He placed one of them in front of Robert.
"Velen gave an Lv9 furnace, so I no longer need yours for research, but I still appreciate it!"
Master Ethan said with gratitude.
As he spoke, he shifted the furnace in his hands, and the veins in his arm bulged instantly from its imnse weight.
"I finally understand why Velen said this thing could be used as a weapon. I've barely held it for a mont, and my arm is already sore."
Robert stared at Master Ethan in astonishnt.
What was he saying?
Using an Lv9 furnace as a weapon?
Had he misheard?
How had Master Ethan, in such a short ti, been completely brainwashed by Velen?!
Had he too beco extravagant and ridiculously imaginative?
"An Lv9 furnace is an incredibly rare treasure, so using it as a weapon might sound absurd… but it could actually work as a surprise tactic. After all, who would ever expect soone to be rich enough to use an Lv9 furnace as a weapon?"
With that, Master Ethan burst into laughter, clearly enjoying the thought.
However, at that mont, his eyes landed on a massive pit behind Robert—where an Lv9 furnace was placed.
Alan had also built a small structure nearby…
Wait—was that a restroom?!
"Robert… what are you doing? Don't tell … you're building a restroom."
Master Ethan's voice trembled slightly as he asked.
Robert nodded. "Isn't it obvious?"
The mont those words left Robert's mouth, Master Ethan's eye twitched violently.
Using an Lv9 furnace as a heater or a weapon—he could reluctantly accept.
But using it as a cremation furnace for a restroom?!
He could not accept that!
His entire being was on the verge of a ntal breakdown!
"You… you people are too much!"
Master Ethan felt like he was losing his grip on reality.
Crafting an Lv9 furnace had once been his ultimate dream—sothing that would cent his na as a legendary blacksmith in the Titan Galaxy.
But now, seeing how Velen and the others were desecrating these furnaces, he completely abandoned that dream.
From now on, even if he had the ability to forge an Lv9 furnace…
He would never do it.
Even if it killed him, he would never forge another one!
Furious, Master Ethan stord off.
Alan and Robert exchanged bewildered glances.
As alchemists, they had long since accepted this reality.
Yet, Ethan—a master blacksmith—couldn't handle it?!
Inside the central hall of Fortress—
Anastasia, Kevin, Aiden, Ironback Centipede, and Little White Rabbit all stared in shock at the blazing furnaces before them.
"Velen, these furnaces don't look ordinary… What level are they? And why are you giving them to us? We're not alchemists."
Anastasia was the first to speak, confused.
Velen pointed at the furnaces.
"These are Lv9 furnaces. They possess imnse offensive and defensive capabilities. Imprint your soul marks on them and master their control as soon as possible.
"If you use them as weapons, they'll be devastating—one swing, and you could flatten a mountain!"
Anastasia and the others were completely baffled.
An Lv9 furnace?
These were legendary items they had only ever heard about.
In the entire Titan Galaxy, there weren't even a handful of these high-tier furnaces.
Yet Velen casually pulled out five?!
And he wanted to use them as weapons?!
Was he insane?!
Everyone stared at him as if he had lost his mind.
But then—
Ironback Centipede's eyes lit up.
It manifested multiple massive hands, grabbed an Lv9 furnace, tossed it in the air a few tis, then grinned.
"Master, this furnace is unbelievably heavy and durable. Even without using mana, just relying on its sheer weight—if swung like a teor—it would be a devastating force that's nearly impossible to defend against!"
As a spellbeast, Ironback Centipede's physical strength far exceeded that of most human awakeners.
It was having a blast playing with the furnace, completely satisfied with its new "toy."
The others swallowed hard.
They had known Lv9 furnaces were special, but they hadn't expected them to be this heavy and powerful.
"Velen, I don't know what your true intentions are… but how do you expect Little White Rabbit to wield an Lv9 furnace? That's just ridiculous."
"Yeah, Velen, what's a rabbit supposed to do with this thing?"
Before Velen could respond, Little White Rabbit glared at the speaker, its long ears standing on end in fury.
Velen chuckled, stroking its fluffy ears.
"Look—Little White Rabbit loves the furnace! If nothing else, it makes for a great rabbit den."
"Besides, Little White Rabbit is no ordinary rabbit anymore—it's a spellbeast with boundless potential.
"Who knows? Maybe it'll master the Flying Rabbit Kick and launch the furnace with its feet, unleashing its full power!"
At these words, Anastasia and the others all simultaneously envisioned an adorable, chubby rabbit standing upright and drop-kicking an Lv9 furnace at terrifying speeds.
The image was so bizarre that they instinctively shook their heads.
From now on, they would never look at Little White Rabbit the sa way again!
