Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 367: Not for Sale
Soldier Emperor City.
On the streets here, you won’t find small stalls or milk tea shops, snack bars like those on Blue Star; instead, there are iron forges, blacksmiths, and weapon and magical treasure shops. Almost everyone is engaged in blacksmithing, and there isn’t a single food shop, as if people here don’t partake in earthly sustenance.
The sound of iron being forged is not harsh at all; instead, it’s quite pleasing, like rhythmic music.
"As expected of Soldier Emperor City, almost everyone in the city forges weapons, and high-quality weapons are everywhere."
Chen Lan walked on the bustling street, his Divine Sense scanning the iron forges and shops around him, all of which housed high-quality weapons or magical treasures that would cause a frenzy if they were casually tossed onto Blue Star.
Perhaps he might really find a suitable weapon for himself here.
Soon, a blacksmith shop equipped with a shielding array, which even his Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate, caught his attention. No other shop had it; only this one was so unique. Perhaps there was something valuable inside.
Chen Lan approached the entrance and was stunned by the bizarre scene of the shop’s façade.
He saw a robust, shirtless man at the door, vigorously swinging a heavy hammer, forging weapons. Under his forceful hammering, a weapon’s prototype quickly took shape, producing a sound that was pleasing and captivating, the most melodious hammering sound he’d ever heard.
Upon closer inspection, that weapon prototype faintly exuded a Heavenly Dao aura, as if it naturally became a Celestial Dao Treasure upon forging, leaving him amazed.
Could it be that such Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures could actually be artificially forged?
The world is vast and full of wonders. The Desolate Celestial Realm truly broadened his horizons; it’s unbelievable that someone could forge Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures, utterly astounding.
He once thought that Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures were extremely rare magical treasures, exceptionally precious on Blue Star. However, after arriving in the Desolate Celestial Realm, Chen Lan felt like a frog in a well because here, Great Emperors roamed free, Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures were everywhere, and there were far more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures than on Blue Star.
Additionally, there was something particularly peculiar in the corner of the entrance: a figure crouched there.
Chen Lan glanced over; the figure, if standing, appeared to be just 1.6 meters tall. Crouched there, draped in a black cloak that covered the entire body with a hood, their face was utterly obscured, gender unknown, and even his Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate it, which was truly peculiar.
A man focused solely on weapon forging, and a figure huddled in the corner, fit in with no other blacksmith shop yet were so unique.
"Little brother, have you taken a fancy to anything?" At this moment, the blacksmith put down the heavy hammer, noticed Chen Lan, and grinned as he spoke.
There was indeed a hint of a merchant’s demeanor, bringing a slight smile to Chen Lan’s face: "I need a handy weapon, and I’d like to take a look."
"What kind of weapon do you want? I have everything here; if there’s something you desire that I don’t have, you can gather the materials, and I’ll forge it for you." The blacksmith smiled, speaking with confidence as if he could forge all the weapons in the world.
Yet Chen Lan believed this man wasn’t lying because his technique was highly professional, capable of casually forging Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures, indicating that his skills were not weak and he wouldn’t lie.
"I need a sword and a spear," Chen Lan stated his requirements.
"Alright, you can go inside and take a look first. I still need to forge a weapon for another guest, so kindly wait a moment." The man smiled.
"Mm." Chen Lan nodded, intending to explore inside.
After speaking, he stepped inside. When he passed by that figure, he glanced down at them, but they didn’t look up, leaving him puzzled. Could this be a beggar?
Yet how could a beggar exist in such a flourishing Soldier Emperor City?
If one learned even a little craft, they wouldn’t need to beg.
Not pondering it too much, Chen Lan examined the various weapons and magical treasures inside the blacksmith shop, utterly astounded.
The blacksmith shop wasn’t small; upon entering, he realized how large it was, at least as big as two basketball courts. Various weapons and magical treasures were encased in glass made from special materials; some more ordinary ones were directly placed on the walls, while some extremely precious items were housed in wooden boxes he couldn’t see through.
The ones on the walls, all at first glance, were Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures, uniformly so!
Over a hundred Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures, various types of magical treasures, left Chen Lan dazzled. If he could buy everything here and bring it back to Blue Star, it would rapidly enhance everyone’s strength, elevating it significantly!
Even more terrifying were the ones in the glass cases; they were all Chaos Supreme Treasures, over ten of them, exuding terrifying and powerful auras, far more terrifying than his former Thunderbolt Divine Spear.
He desired them all and wanted to buy them all; he just didn’t know if he had enough money.
His belongings were likely insignificant in the eyes of these people.
Skipping over the Celestial Dao Supreme Treasures, Chen Lan directly examined the Chaos Supreme Treasures, quickly setting his sights on a spear, entirely fiery red, with fierce flames burning at the spearhead. A red dragon was intricately carved on the spear shaft, its mouth containing a red pearl, incredibly striking.
A stone was placed on the cabinet; when Chen Lan touched it, the basic information of the spear automatically appeared in his mind.
[Dragon Fire Red Flame Spear]
[Forged with dragon bone and dragon sinew from an ancient fire dragon, the spear shaft and spearhead were made by melting dragon’s tooth and glazed celestial fire, incorporating celestial demon stone iron, capable of containing all the fires in the world and unleashing scorching power to burn all things to ashes!]
[This Chaos Supreme Treasure can be infused with countless spiritual fires to enhance the power of the magical treasure; the more spiritual fires absorbed, the stronger the treasure becomes]
He let go, and the basic information vanished.
Chen Lan nodded slightly; this magical treasure was indeed excellent. He wondered if he could fuse the fragments of the Thunderbolt Divine Spear into it, forging a Thunderfire Divine Spear for himself, perhaps making this treasure even more formidable.
Having identified one target, he decided to voice his needs to the blacksmith once he finished forging the weapon for the other customer to see if he could accommodate them.
Just then, an ancient sword sheath hanging on the center wall trembled slightly.
At the same time, the blacksmith swinging the heavy hammer at the entrance suddenly shuddered, paused for a second, then continued forging as if nothing had happened. However, his Divine Sense was constantly focused on that ancient sword sheath on the wall.
The figure crouched at the entrance also reacted similarly, never moving but suddenly jolting, then quickly resuming their stillness.
Chen Lan didn’t notice their movements but instead turned to look at the sword sheath, momentarily stunned.
In the depths of his mind, he felt drawn to the sword sheath, staring intently at it for a long while, until the hammering stopped, and the blacksmith’s voice sounded from behind him.
"Have you found anything you like, my dear guest?"
"Excuse me, is the sword on the wall for sale? Could you take it down so I can have a look?"
For some reason, Chen Lan felt that sword was very unique; he was very interested in it, as if it was constantly attracting him, perhaps an extraordinary item.
"I’m sorry, but that sword is not for sale."
