In the reception room.

Lou Gao, who was supposed to be the owner, was now standing in the middle of the room.

He felt a little sweaty, and his chubby round face had a very stiff expression.

"Let me explain."

He nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, but the stain rubbed onto his forehead again, making him look even funnier.

"Well, I'm listening. However, in the Spirit Hall's Inquisition, most people's opening remarks are very similar to yours."

Han Li had put away all the drawings and sat back in his seat. His expression was still not very good, but it was in line with the current situation.

"If I say that the things were sent by my employer and I was asked to help analyze them, would you believe me?"

Lou Gao asked tentatively.

I believe it. Not only do I believe it, I can even guess that this thing was probably sent by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but can I tell? Definitely not.

"Is this your closing statement?"

Han Li asked back.

"Son, you are joking. Of course not."

Lou Gao smiled awkwardly, but was thinking in his heart how to get away with it.

There was no way. The things were sent by the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, and they swore to him that they had absolutely nothing to do with other forces. What happened? He had only analyzed one of them and was still studying the other one. Then he was captured by the Spirit Hall's people. The key point was that they had the complete production drawings, so it was self-evident where the things came from.

But the most important thing is that he can't afford to offend either side.

"Is it Xingluo? Or Tiandou? Or the Qibao Liuli Sect?"

While Lou Gao was still brainstorming, he heard Han Li speak out of the blue.

He looked up and found that the Holy Son was observing his expression.

"Oh, is it the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"

Then, he saw His Royal Highness the Holy Son and nodded with certainty.

Oh no, how did he determine the employer's information so quickly?

Lou Gao's face sank, like a dejected big cat.

"Well, I couldn't confirm it just now, but now I can confirm that it is indeed the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."

Then he heard the voice of the Holy Son again.

Lou Gao's body stiffened, and he looked at Han Li in front of him with a dull look, feeling as if he had lost all desire to live.

How come young people nowadays have no moral principles at all? Do they even want to deceive an old man like him? They are all evil-minded.

However, what he didn't know was that for Han Li, this was all just a performance. How difficult could an open-book exam be? "So, President Lou Gao, how do you think this matter should be handled now? You don't want to go to the court, do you?"

Han Li's faint voice sounded again and penetrated into Lou Gao's ears.

Lou Gao couldn't help but shiver. Although the temperature in Gengxin City was terribly high, he felt as if he was naked and in the snow.

Seeing this, Han Li smiled in his heart. This was the only thing he wanted to thank Bibi Dong for.

In the past, except for the Pope himself, the titles of the Spirit Hall have rarely been active on the mainland. In fact, apart from the Spirit Hall, even other forces are not very clear about how many titles the Spirit Hall has.

However, after she came to power, because she had difficulty in commanding those with other titles, the two elders, Jue and Gui, became her personal thugs, began to appear frequently, and made a name for themselves.

Because Yue Guan is the elder of the Punishment Hall, the Court of Inquisition under his command has also entered the sight of major forces on the mainland. In short, they are responsible for doing all the dirty, tiring and shady work.

Normally, when the Inquisition is dispatched, evidence is not very important. Let’s put it this way, up to now, no one has ever heard of anyone captured by the Inquisition leaving Wuhun City alive.

Anyway, in Douluo Continent, the Spirit Hall's Judgment Chamber is also notorious.

You know, the last person to be captured was the Grand Duke of a principality who was involved in collusion with evil soul masters, and the Inquisition so blatantly rushed in in the face of the army and took him away.

The Tiandou Empire has not dared to make a single sound until now.

This is exactly what Lou Gao was afraid of. In terms of status and position, he was not much stronger than the Grand Duke. Even if the Spirit Hall really wanted to capture him, the Star Luo Empire would not dare to use its army. Instead, it would cut off ties with him as soon as possible.

As for the Blacksmith Association, most of the people had no fighting power at all. Even if there was, who would dare to stand up for him? The last master craftsman from the Haotian Sect was still a title. It was different that there was no such person until now, and even the Haotian Sect had closed the mountain.

"I still have the manufacturing drawings of the Silent Hidden Arrow. I haven't given them to my employer yet. I haven't completely replicated the Flying God Claw yet. I will give up analyzing its structure in the future."

Lou Gao said cautiously, stealing glances at Han Li's expression.

But even now, he still uses "employer" to refer to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. He has signed the agreement, and others' guesses do not mean that he can admit it in person. This is his last stubbornness and dignity bottom line.

"But, this can only be regarded as a way to make up for it after being discovered, right?"

Han Li's expression relaxed slightly and he looked towards Lou Gao.

Hearing his words, Lou Gao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's fine if we can talk, don't arrest people for no reason. He is just a craftsman, there is no need to use such high standards.

"I will cover all the expenses for what you are going to build this time. Of course, this does not include large-scale standard weapons, which I cannot afford."

Lou Gao stood up again, prepared for heavy bleeding.

Of course, his IQ was still online, and he plugged the loophole in advance. Otherwise, he was afraid that the Holy Son in front of him would ask him to directly provide equipment for three to five hundred people.

"If it's just one copy, no, ten copies, I'll pretend I don't know anything about it, what do you think?"

Before Lou Gao could refuse, he quickly added, “I will provide the materials myself. If there is not enough, I will buy it from the Blacksmith Association at the market price.”

Lou Gao glanced at him and nodded slightly: "Okay."

This was equivalent to him only putting in some effort to expose the matter, which made him, who had already prepared for a heavy loss, feel a lot more comfortable and had a better impression of Han Li.

It is better to forgive others when you can. This young man knows how to behave. No wonder he is the Son of God.

He selectively forgot that just a minute ago, he was cursing Han Lixin in his heart for being evil.

"In that case, Your Highness, can you let me see the blueprint?"

After the agreement was reached, Lou Gao's expression changed again. He looked at the wristband on Han Li's left hand with some longing. The drawings were all inside.

Just by simply coming into contact with the Hidden Arrows and the Flying Claws, he gained a lot of inspiration.

It was obvious that from Han Li's previous attitude towards them and the drawings, he didn't take them very seriously and could only be considered basic or entry-level weapons. He was now impatient to see the drawings of other weapons.

"No hurry, Senior Lou Gao, there are some things you need to do before you look at the blueprints. This is a treasure, don't you think?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

As he spoke, a piece of paper appeared in Han Li's hand, but it was not the previous drawing.

"Yes, that's right. We need to sign the relevant contract first. Bring it here. I'll sign it directly."

Lou Gao was not vague and directly took the paper from Han Li's hand and was about to sign it. However, after seeing the content on it, he froze in place.

What he held in his hand was not a relevant contract at all, but more like an oath, and it was densely packed with at least hundreds of clauses.

"This is?"

Lou Gao looked at Han Li with some confusion.

"The spirit oath, compared to the regular contract, I trust the spirit oath more. After all, I am the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, and the angel gods are above me."

While answering, Han Li made a prayer gesture unique to the Spirit Hall, which was quite like a charlatan.

"And regular contracts can't prevent information from being leaked, right? Just like what happened just now."

"Yeah, that's right."

Lou Gao didn't know how to respond. Only then did he realize that in addition to its powerful military strength, the Spirit Hall was indeed a religious organization, which seemed reasonable.

"But isn't this a bit too much?"

Lou Gao looked down at the paper in his hand again and said with a headache, it’s not that I don’t want to agree.

In his opinion, signing a contract is no different from swearing an oath with his martial spirit. He would never leak it out on his own initiative. I just want to say that this is a bit too much.

"This is a sign of piety towards the Angel God. Of course, if you have any objections, as the Son of God, I will try to communicate with God. God loves the world, and He will look upon your choice with mercy."

Han Li continued to sing the lyrics with a holy look on his face, but his attitude was very firm, as if he was just about to tell Lou Gao openly that it was not possible.

"All right."

Lou Gao lowered his head and read the oath carefully. Since he had no choice, he would obey it.

Of course, you still have to look at the content. Why don’t you just treat it as a contract? It’s the same.

After reading it from beginning to end, Lou Gao nodded.

I have to say that although it is a bit cumbersome, this contract, um, oath is still quite fair. That is, the consequence of violating the oath is always "purification".

But considering the style of the Spirit Hall, there is indeed no problem.

God bless you, his future contracts can also refer to this. After reading it so many times, Lou Gao couldn't help but adopt the same tone.

However, what he did not notice was that the three words "Angel God" did not appear in the contract at all, but were replaced by the names of gods or Han Li.

"Okay, no problem. I'll swear on my martial spirit. As for your part, how about..."

Lou Gao nodded and looked at Han Li. This contract was one-sided. He had promised the conditions before, but no one could prove it. What if he regretted it? "Don't worry, I can also swear on my martial spirit."

Han Li looked at Lou Gao with a smile and took the initiative to add to what he had not finished saying.

Lou Gao nodded, which was considered as his agreement.

It's quite particular. The Son of God has such respect for the gods he believes in that he is willing to swear by his martial spirit even on such things.

It seems that he doesn't have to worry about being held accountable by Qiu Shou for what he had promised before, Lou Gao thought silently in his heart.

However, he did not notice that the black-clothed girl, who had been standing beside Han Li and had only said one sentence from beginning to end, looked at him with a hint of pity in her eyes.

In the end, someone took the initiative to swear this oath.

"Okay, let's get started."

Han Li still had the same holy attitude as before, looking at Lou Gao who was standing in front of him.

"Okay, no problem."

Lou Gao also became serious.

After a pause of a few seconds, a slightly different voice sounded from the reception room.

"Angel God/God above, I am Han Li, I am Lou Gao..."
