When they heard that Lu Chen had forged a ninth-tier Star-level weapon, the other six leaders were all incredulous, their eyes shining as they looked at the spear in the second leader's hand.
"How is this possible?"
The leader even rushed over and grabbed the spear in the second leader's hand. After carefully feeling it, he confirmed that it was indeed a ninth-level Star-rank weapon.
"It's true."
The other five leaders were also stunned.
The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became incredibly oppressive.
All eyes turned to Lu Chen.
This newcomer is actually able to forge such a powerful weapon. His forging skills are so superb that none of the Seven Dragons Stronghold members have ever seen anything like it in their lives.
Such a talented person has actually come to Seven Dragons Village and said he wants to join us. This is like finding a treasure!
At this moment, no one had any doubts, and all suspicions about Lu Chen's identity were dispelled.
Such a brilliant genius would be a person of high status wherever he goes. There is no need for him to take such a big risk to become an undercover agent in Seven Dragons Village. That would be a waste of his talent.
Moreover, this person's strength is too weak, only at the fifth level of the Star Realm. Even if he is an undercover agent, he is not much of a threat.
Just then, the second-in-command suddenly remembered something else. He had given Lu Chen enough materials, but Lu Chen had only managed to forge one spear. Now, the second-in-command was equally eager for another piece of armor.
"Where's the armor?"
The second-in-command stopped being polite to Lu Chen at this point.
Lu Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "No more, we've used up all the materials."
"What? You've used them all up?"
The second-in-command stared wide-eyed.
Lu Chen remained calm and said, "These materials seem plentiful, but they are not pure. To forge a good weapon, you must remove the dross and keep the essence. The purer the materials, the higher the grade of the weapon you can forge!"
At this point, Lu Chen sighed again, saying with some regret, "This spear could have been forged even better! But we didn't have enough materials, so this is the best we could do!"
When Lu Chen said this, the second-in-command and the others were all dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that a ninth-tier Star-level weapon wasn't perfect in Lu Chen's eyes; he could even forge better ones.
Seeing the surprised looks on everyone's faces, Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Luckily, we were in good luck this time. Otherwise, if we had failed to refine it due to insufficient materials, it would have been a huge loss!"
The seven brothers of Seven Dragons Stronghold were all dumbfounded, and the second leader's last bit of doubt disappeared.
Being able to forge a ninth-tier Star-level weapon is already quite good; we can't ask for too much more.
He himself knew absolutely nothing about the art of weapon crafting, so he naturally didn't know whether what Lu Chen said was true or not. However, seeing Lu Chen's relieved expression, he naturally chose to believe him.
"You want to join our Seven Dragons Stronghold?"
The second-in-command looked at Lu Chen with delight. This small request was hardly a request at all. Even if Lu Chen didn't want to join, they wouldn't want to let him go.
With such a powerful weapon-refining master, the strength of Seven Dragons Stronghold will be greatly enhanced, becoming incomparable to what it was before.
Moreover, the seven brothers could also have someone specially forge the finest weapons for them.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Of course, I hope you'll take me in, Second Master!"
"Take them in? Okay, of course we'll take them in!"
The second-in-command was stroking his spear with a look of delight on his face.
"Haha, our Seven Dragons Stronghold now has its own master weapon refiner! Today is truly a joyous day. Send down the order to prepare a banquet!"
The chief was also very pleased and immediately gave the order.
The sound traveled very far. Outside the main hall, everyone in the entire Seven Dragons Stronghold was completely dumbfounded. After hearing this, they were all very curious.
"Hold a banquet? What kind of banquet?"
"What happened? The boss seems quite happy!"
"It must be a happy occasion!"
"I heard that those two guys from the Crimson Flame Iron Mine brought someone back. They just went to see the Second Boss. It must be related to this person!"
"What happened?"
However, these bandits were already idle, so when a feast was suddenly held, they were all overjoyed, as they could drink wine from large bowls and eat large chunks of meat again.
A lavish feast was quickly prepared.
At Seven Dragons Village, everyone gathered in the square outside the main hall.
Lu Chen had become the undisputed protagonist, surrounded by the seven leaders, truly a star surrounded by the moon.
The two guards at the Crimson Flame Iron Mine were also present; they did not leave.
How could we miss such an opportunity?
Seeing Lu Chen surrounded by the seven leaders, looking overjoyed, I finally felt relieved.
"Looks like it's worked!"
"Haha, judging from this, the fifth brother is really being valued!"
"Now that we have a chance to turn things around, I never want to go back to guarding the Crimson Flame Iron Mine again!"
"..."
At this moment, the leader finally spoke.
"Brothers, we have a great celebration today in our Seven Dragons Stronghold!"
The leader stood at the highest point and glanced around. The scene was completely silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
None of them dared to make another sound.
"Today, a new brother has joined our Seven Dragons Stronghold. This is Brother Wang Wu. From now on, Brother Wang Wu's position in our Seven Dragons Stronghold will be second only to the seven of us brothers. Does everyone understand?"
