Chapter 76 Chen Qing's Request
Marzaan brought Chen Qing here, not to have him take on the main responsibility, since Sapphire Island and Emerald Island are not short of people.
However, although Chen Qing wasn't given the main responsibility, he was indeed entrusted with an important task.
Even with the existence of the Mechanic Association, the presence of mechanics in the Deep Blue Sea is still not very strong.
There are only three branches of the Mechanic's Guild in the Gem Sea, located on Emerald Isle, Diamond Isle, and Pearl Isle.
In the deep blue sea, the Mechanic is relatively more dominant in the Treasure Sea.
"I need you to be in charge of these parts."
"We have prepared all the materials, manpower, equipment, and everything else."
Marzan handed over dozens more disassembled blueprints. A massive sea defense fortification could not possibly be contained in a single small blueprint.
What Chen Qing received was a copy they had disassembled and reproduced. This task alone took eight mechanical masters from different schools two whole years.
Marzaan and Sunny have discussed it. This Gemstorm is dangerous, but it is the best time for them to build this magnificent defensive fortification.
With the Gemstone Hurricane ahead, the other forces in the Gemstone Sea had no time to care about them.
But this is undoubtedly a huge challenge.
It was Xia Li who suggested that Chen Qing join the team. Chen Qing's strong performance in the Daliya incident made her take notice of this newcomer.
Xia Li caught several of the mechanical spider bombs that Chen Qing released. After disassembling and studying the mechanical spiders carefully, Xia Li was amazed by Chen Qing's technology.
In addition, the Berserker Rabbit and the Super Shield Whale, who made their mark in the Dalia incident, are enough to prove Chen Qing's abilities.
Even though Chen Qing lacked creativity, Xia Li wouldn't dare say she could surpass her in assembling according to blueprints.
Her abilities far exceed her current professional level, and she is fully capable of handling things independently.
"What conditions can you set?"
Marzaan is very sincere. When it comes to treating talent, she wouldn't dare say she's number one, but she's definitely among the best in the Deep Blue Sea.
There are many more masters of various professions and schools of thought on Sapphire Island than just the few who are known to the public.
"..."
Chen Qing did not answer Marzaan immediately, but instead carefully looked through the drawings she handed him.
Chen Qing was tempted by Marzan's offer. Even without payment, no mechanic would refuse such a massive mechanical project.
However, Chen Qing doesn't like to agree to things she's not sure about, as that's not good for everyone, so she needs to weigh the options before making a decision.
It took Chen Qing an hour to carefully analyze all the thick stack of drawings.
"These tasks are quite challenging for me given my abilities."
Upon hearing Chen Qing's answer, a smile appeared on Marzaan's face. Chen Qing's answer indicated that it was somewhat difficult, which meant that she was also quite confident.
"Don't worry, this time there are quite a few superhumans with high mental attributes joining the project."
Marzaan immediately replied that she was there to assist Chen Qing and the other mechanics.
Chen Qing was indeed somewhat confident; she wasn't just boasting.
Building mechanical fortifications according to blueprints is itself a way of seeing the world from the shoulders of giants.
The biggest problem with this project was whether the mechanics involved had the talent, ability, and experience to understand the blueprints and collect the materials.
I wouldn't dare say the former, but Sapphire Island and Emerald Island are definitely well-prepared.
Since they accidentally obtained the blueprints four years ago, the two islands have been preparing for this.
"I have two requests."
Chen Qing put down the blueprints and began to bargain with Marzan.
She won't lack money.
She won't lack the materials either.
Chen Qing's only lack is knowledge, which is the least circulated thing in this world.
"I want books about mechanics."
"Sure, as long as it's not the only book in the private collection of those mechanics, I can get all the others for you."
Marjane agreed to the request without hesitation, as she had expected.
"I want to see the complete blueprints of the defensive fortifications, not just a rubbing; I want to see the original."
Chen Qing stared into Marzaan's eyes and slowly stated his second request.
The first condition was just an appetizer; the following one was Chen Qing's main focus.
Sure enough, upon hearing this request, Marzaan hesitated, and almost blurted out a refusal.
The mechanics who had previously disassembled and printed the blueprints were all their own people; Chen Qing was not only a newcomer but also an outsider.
Marzan has to consider the issue of the blueprints being leaked.
Chen Qing's abilities are not sufficient for Marzaan to take such a big risk.
However, Marzaan frowned as she looked at Chen Qing, who remained calm even after stating his conditions.
She was weighing whether Chen Qing was worth the risk.
Perhaps Chen Qing has some trump card up his sleeve.
"I need to think about it."
After a moment's hesitation, Marzaan said in a deep voice that she was actually inclined to reject Chen Qing.
However, given Xia Li's extremely high regard for Chen Qing, she was still willing to hold a meeting to show respect for Chen Qing.
Marzaan needs to discuss this with the other mechanics, and for something as important as reviewing the blueprints, she also needs the Emerald Isle's approval.
"certainly."
Chen Qing nodded slightly; she understood Mazan's concerns.
She also had her own concerns; Chen Qing's biggest trump card was undoubtedly the assistant manager, Beehive.
The assistant bee seemed tailor-made for this project.
In addition, there is the bounty for the Moana Pirates that has not yet been received.
Chen Qing cannot openly discuss managing the beehive.
Every mechanic would want this.
After leaving the island lord's mansion, Chen Qing did not rush back to the ship, but instead went to the Bounty Hunter Guild first.
Outside Sapphire Island, the Gemstone Hurricane continues to ravage the surrounding waters.
The terrifying giant waves continued to crash against the protective shield of Sapphire Island, a sight the islanders had long since become accustomed to.
This is just the prelude.
When Chen Qing arrived at the Bounty Guild, apart from the survivors who looked pale and sickly, all the other hunters assigned to the Bounty Guild were in excellent condition.
Her arrival successfully attracted everyone's attention: the survivors' anticipation and the hunters' greed.
Chen Qing calmly walked past the jackals and took the bounty that Ariel had prepared beforehand from her hand.
All the bounties were stored in a spatial ring.
A simple black foliage ring, which fit Chen Qing's size perfectly.
Chen Qing was surprised by this unexpected joy; her first spatial artifact was not something she made herself, but a gift from someone else.
Having received the bounty, Chen Qing went to the Sapphire Market to purchase a new batch of ingredients before returning to the ship.
Upon returning to the ship, Chen Qing's first action wasn't to check the bounty in his ring, but rather to ponder the relationship between the Assistant Bee Hive and the defensive fortification!
