Chapter 43 Heavy Knife



Meng Qingyin was surprised: "Build weapons for self-defense?"

She looked at the middle-aged man. This man was Li Tieniu's father. His surname was Li.

Could he be Blacksmith Li?

"Are you Blacksmith Li?" Meng Qingyin asked in surprise.

Blacksmith Li nodded: "That's right."

Meng Qingyin didn't expect that she accidentally saved Li the blacksmith's son.

He offered to make weapons for her, so how could she refuse?

"Thank you very much," Meng Qingyin said, "By the way, I have three desert lizard scales here. If you need them, I'll go get them right away!"

She originally knew about Blacksmith Li from the information on the desert lizard scales.

If he needed it, she would go to the RV and get it now!

Blacksmith Li shook his head. "Desert lizard scales aren't a precious material, so don't take them. What kind of weapon do you want?"

Meng Qingyin thought about it seriously. She now had a stun gun, but she lacked a sharp weapon that could be used in conjunction with it.

She felt very exhausted when fighting the desert lizard last time. The stun gun successfully knocked the desert lizard unconscious, but the military shovel used as a weapon was too lagging behind.

"I want a sharp melee weapon, preferably one that can cut through iron like mud." Meng Qingyin said.

Blacksmith Li nodded and said, "I understand. How about this? I'll make you a heavy sword. Only a heavy sword can cut through iron like mud. Other weapons are not as good as it used to be."

He took a look at Meng Qingyin's physique and hesitated, "It's just... I'm afraid you can't swing it."

Meng Qingyin's eyebrows jumped and asked, "How heavy is this knife?"

"Well, it depends on the person," said Blacksmith Li. "Some swords can even weigh up to 300 kilograms."

Meng Qingyin was shocked. Three hundred pounds was almost as heavy as three of her.

"But you definitely can't swing a sword that weighs three hundred pounds. How about this, I make you a sword that weighs less than a hundred pounds?" Blacksmith Li said again.

Meng Qingyin frowned secretly. Within 100 kilograms?

This range is too large. Ten or twenty kilograms is within 100 kilograms, and eighty or ninety kilograms is also within 100 kilograms.

It is not clear how much Blacksmith Li was talking about.

Seeing her hesitation, Blacksmith Li said helplessly, "A heavy sword is called a heavy sword because of its weight. A difference of a few pounds in weight will reduce its effectiveness. If it's too light, it loses its power. How about this? I'll make you a heavy sword weighing about 30 pounds. You can use it first. When you become stronger, I'll increase the weight. How about that?"

Meng Qingyin naturally agreed: "Then I'll trouble you."

Blacksmith Li: "I still don't know what to call you?"

"Meng Qingyin."

"Okay Miss Meng, it will take a day to forge the heavy sword. You can stay at my house for the time being."

Blacksmith Li was very considerate and enthusiastic towards his son's savior.

Meng Qingyin did not agree immediately.

She first checked her escort mission.

[The escort mission has been completed. Rewards: 1 Strengthening Pill, 1 Battery, 1 Flour (20kg), 1 Purified Water (20L). Do you want to claim them?]

[Don't rush to claim your rewards yet. First, congratulations on completing the primary escort mission. The next rewards will be even more generous!]

[Intermediate Escort Mission: Optional. You can view mission details after accepting the mission. Note: If you accept the reward, the Intermediate Escort Mission will automatically expire. You have a three-hour hesitation period. If you have not made a choice after the hesitation period, you will be deemed to have rejected the mission.]

Meng Qingyin was a little puzzled. Why couldn't he claim the reward after accepting the intermediate escort mission?

The rewards include food, drinks, batteries and strengthening pills, which feels pretty good.

However, the rewards for intermediate escort missions are more generous.

Do you want to answer it?

Although I don’t know the details of the mission, the intermediate escort mission is definitely more difficult than the elementary one.

If it fails, how many supplies will be lost?

Do you want to take another gamble?

Meng Qingyin looked conflicted.

Blacksmith Li was a little confused. It was just about letting his benefactor stay at his home for one night. Was it so difficult to make the decision?

"Ahem, it's okay if you don't want to stay," Blacksmith Li said sympathetically, "Let's add each other as friends. I'll give it to you once I've finished forging the heavy sword."

Knowing that Blacksmith Li had misunderstood, Meng Qingyin explained: "That's not what I meant, but... I don't know how to explain it. Forget it, let's add each other as friends first."

Li Tieniu said from the side: "Add me in too!"

The father and son gave their names at the same time.

"My name is the 23rd generation successor of the Li family's forging."

"My name is Aniu from the AAA Bridge Construction Team."

Meng Qingyin: “…”

After adding them as friends, Meng Qingyin left Blacksmith Li's house.

On the way back to the RV, she was struggling with whether to continue taking the task.

[White Fox] said that there would be divine beast eggs in this event, but she had no idea where the divine beast eggs were or how to get them.

Suddenly, another message came from the management group, and Meng Qingyin clicked on it.

Pheasant: Big Brother White Fox, where exactly is the divine beast egg you mentioned? The event has already started for a day, and there's no sign of it.

[White Fox: What's the rush? Most players are still doing elementary escort missions, so of course they won't get any Divine Beast Eggs.]

[Pheasant: What do you mean?]

[White Fox: Only players who have completed all escort missions are eligible to see the divine beast egg.]

[Hyena: I doubt whether this group of human players can successfully complete all the escort missions. After all, the subsequent missions will become increasingly difficult.]

[Honeypot: If it were me, I would definitely be able to get the Divine Beast Egg.]

Seeing this, Meng Qingyin made a decision.

Now that we've started gambling, we might as well go for the big one!

Since the opportunity to obtain the divine beast egg is in front of her, there is absolutely no reason to let it go.

While thinking, Meng Qingyin returned to the highway and saw the RV parked on the side.

When she opened the car door, she was shocked by the scene inside.

The car was covered with pea stems and leaves, and the entire interior of the RV was green.

Fortunately, there is an aisle for people to walk.

Meng Qingyin then remembered that the pea seedlings seemed to have grown to the next stage?

She quickly came to the driver's seat and clicked on the center console to check the status of Pea.

Pea (bound)

Status: Fruiting (Click to change position and trim.)

Nutritional supply required for growth: Electricity (Click to switch nutrient solution.)

Condensation: Peas in this state absorb water vapor from the air and store it inside their stems and leaves. (Current water storage capacity: 20ml/5L)

It will take another 24 hours to reach the next stage. Please maintain adequate nutrition, otherwise the growth of the peas will stagnate.
