Chapter 207 Qin Emperor: I Am Invincible (1)
Shi Songtao was an expert. Before Zhou Shu, he was Great Xia’s most famous forging genius. His skills in forging didn’t come from boasting.
But the more experienced he was, the more he felt that Zhou Shu’s actions were an eyesore. Indeed, Zhou Shu had observed this weapon for a long time.
But he only looked at it with his eyes. He didn’t analyze the materials used to make this weapon, nor did he know the forging process used to make it.
If he didn’t know any of this, how could he deduce the internal structure of the weapon? If he didn’t know the internal structure of the weapon, how could he design the star path for it?
It had to be known that the so-called star paths were the meridians of a weapon. It had to adhere to the bones and flesh of the weapon in order to create a ranked weapon. Otherwise, it would be impossible to fix the star.
In Shi Songtao’s opinion, Zhou Shu was simply messing around when he started drawing the star positions without knowing anything!
If not for the fact that Zhou Shu’s power was growing by the day, Shi Songtao would have probably pointed at Zhou Shu’s nose and scolded him for messing around. Even though Shi Songtao didn’t dare to say much, he was still a little anxious.
Seeing that Zhou Shu was not using the incomplete weapon, Shi Songtao quietly held it in his hand and shot a glance at the other Forging Masters.
The few Forging Masters understood and moved closer. They began to analyze the weapon together.
To them, it was impossible for Zhou Shu to succeed.
In that case, it was up to them to pass this checkpoint.
Zhou Shu acted as if he didn’t notice their small movements and drew furiously.
A moment later, he threw the brush in his hand.
“Done!”
At this moment, if I had a wine gourd in my hand and drank a mouthful of wine, I would look like a poet immortal, Zhou Shu thought nonsensically.
“So fast? Amazing!” Yin Wuyou clapped and praised.
Although she was the grand minister of the Forging Division, she didn’t know much about forging. She didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with Zhou Shu being too fast.
Zhou Shu smiled at Yin Wuyou and then took the piece of paper to the general in charge of guarding this checkpoint. “General, where is the judge for the fourth checkpoint?”.
The general was also surprised. How long has it been? Is he messing with me?
The general frowned. In the end, Zhou Shu drew a diagram that was full of words.
“Wait.” He turned around and walked toward a tent not far away. He lifted the curtain and walked in.
The moment the guard entered the tent, Zhou Shu saw an old man with a head full of white hair sitting on the table, studying something.
After a short while, the general walked out of the tent with a surprised expression and then came to Zhou Shu.
“Great Xia, pass!” He raised his voice.
All the Forging Masters engrossed in studying the incomplete weapons raised their heads in unison.
Disbelief appeared on their faces as they stared at Zhou Shu.
It was the same for Shi Songtao and the other Great Xia Forging Masters.
Pass?
The marquis wasn’t writing rubbish?
Did he really design a star path for this weapon?
Shi Songtao scratched his head with all his might. He didn’t even notice that his hair was in a mess.
How was this possible?
How was it possible for him to design a star path for the weapon after only coming in contact with it an hour?
He didn’t analyze the composition of the weapon, nor did he use any secret techniques. How did he do it?
Is the gap between him and me really that big?
Shi Songtao’s thoughts were the thoughts of almost all the Forging Masters present. Zhou Shu’s name reverberated like thunder in their ears.
In the previous few incidents, they had a deep impression of Zhou Shu. Such a shameless person was truly rare.
Now, they were truly shocked.
The more knowledgeable one was, the more they knew how difficult it was for Zhou Shu to pass the checkpoint so quickly!
As expected of Great Xia’s number one forging genius!
As expected of a man who had almost taken over the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual!
“Let’s go to the next checkpoint,” Zhou Shu said calmly as he walked forward.
Shi Songtao and the others hesitated for a moment before sighing. They put down the weapon and followed him dejectedly.
They felt that they were really worthless. They couldn’t fight, and it seemed they couldn’t forge either.
On the way, Shi Songtao hesitated for a long time before finally asking, “How did you do it, Marquis?”
“You want to know?” Zhou Shu smiled faintly.
“I want to know!” Shi Songtao gritted his teeth.
“If you want to know? Join the Huaxia Pavilion, and I’ll tell you,” Zhou Shu said.
Shi Songtao was slightly stunned. He actually felt a little flattered. Is the marquis trying to poach me?
“But I’m-“Shi Songtao said hesitantly.
“Great Xia Forging Division’s grand minister is right here. The Forging Division doesn’t say that people can’t job-hop to another workshop, right?” Zhou Shu said casually. “No,” Yin Wuyou said firmly.
“Let me think about it, Marquis.” Shi Songtao was extremely conflicted.
Zhou Shu smiled and didn’t speak anymore.
He knew Shi Songtao too well.
Shi Songtao might be a little lecherous and afraid of death, but his love for forging was genuine.
In the year that he became Shi Songtao in his dream, the thing that Shi Songtao had done the most was study forging techniques every day, rain or shine. He also played with his concubines on the bed every day, rain or shine…
In addition, during this diplomatic mission, Zhou Shu also discovered that Shi Songtao was quite a talented manager.
