My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start Chapter 31

Chapter 31

“We’ll listen to you, Watson.”

Reynolds nodded to Watson, glanced at Carter, and walked straight out. After all, it was not his subordinates who had committed the crime. His anger just now was just for show.

Carter, who was on the receiving end of the look, secretly cursed him for gloating. He was a bit embarrassed, as he had wanted to take the opportunity to entice Watson, but did not expect his subordinates to commit such a big mistake. Fortunately, the young genius was not angry.

Outside the courtyard stood six burly men dressed as guards.

One of them was a young man in his early twenties. He was lying on the ground, rubbing his ankles with a pale face. His ankles had turned black and blue. Beside him was a round stone and two large pieces of broken white jade stone slabs.

The so-called white jade stone slabs were not made of jade, but a rare mineral called White Jade. This mineral naturally produced a kind of fragrance which could calm the mind of those who smelled it, in addition to having the effect of promoting cultivation. A house made of White Jade could be warm in winter and cool in summer. It was a material loved by many great nobles.

At this moment, Carter looked at the shattered and translucent pieces on the ground. His vision went black, and his body swayed, almost falling down.

Before he came out, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. If the white jade stone tablet was not severely broken and only broke into two or three pieces, he could still barely use it, but that glimmer of hope had since disappeared without a trace.

“Idiots, are you all pigs?”

Carter pointed at his subordinates and could not help but roar, “Kneel down and apologize to Baron Edward. Don’t even think about taking this month’s pay! Not only this month, you won’t get the next month’s pay either.”

A group of people, especially the guards who fell to the ground, looked aggrieved. They were already very tired from moving such a large slab. Who would have thought that there would be round stones on the ground? They did not do it on purpose, but with mistakes like that, the fine of a months’ wages was light punishment, as opposed to if Carter expelled them from the caravan.

“Baron Edward, we were wrong. Please forgive us.”

“We are really sorry. We were careless.”

A few guards turned their heads and carefully lowered their heads to Edward.

“Forget it. You did not do it on purpose.” Edward waved his hand and walked to the guard who had sprained his ankle. He picked up the round stone under his feet and looked at it. He found that it was very smooth. There was not a single corner on it, and it did not seem to be formed naturally.

Turning his head, Edward glanced at Watson. Back in the courtyard, he saw a few pieces of broken stone on the ground. Some of the edges and corners had been smoothed out, just like that stone.

Feeling his father’s gaze, Watson whistled and turned his small head to the side.

Just now, in order to test whether the weapon condensed by his light-attribute combat aura was sharp enough, he not only hacked at the big stone in the courtyard, but also slashed at the broken stones and either pierced or grinded them. Perhaps a few pieces had accidentally flown out in the process of cutting.

Having roughly guessed the cause of the incident, Edward found that Carter was still reprimanding his subordinates and sighed, “Carter, it has been many years since we last met, and your temper is still as hot-tempered as ever! Alright, they’ve been punished, so let’s not make things difficult for these people anymore. Unfortunately, we can only trouble you to make another trip to Monte Town.”

He did not want to make things difficult for Carter, but he also felt that it was unfortunate. Originally, they could repair the house again within the next two days with those white jade slabs, but aside from having to wait a period of time, they also had to spend more money there. Just thinking about it made him feel annoyed.

“You guys, Baron Edward has already spoken. Didn’t you hear him? Count yourself lucky this time. The next time something similar happens, I will expel all of you from the Lucky Business Group. Hurry up and tidy up this place, then get lost.”

Carter waved his hand impatiently. A few guards quickly acknowledged him. They supported the injured one and were about to turn around and leave.

At this moment.

“Wait.”

Watson walked out. “Uncle Carter, I think it’s just a few stones. It’s a bit too much to punish them for two months’salary.”

Too much?

“Watson, you only say that because you don’t know the value of these white jade stone slabs! White jade can only be found in large mines. It was very troublesome to excavate them back and forth. Monte Town is the only one stocking this within a radius of a few hundred kilometers. It would take two days to go back and forth from here to Monte Town. That’s a total of four days! In addition, a white jade slab is worth ten gold pieces. There’s also the cost of transporting it again, and the money to hire someone to protect it…the total would reach at least a hundred gold coins.”

Carter had a bitter expression on his face. He counted on his fingers, thinking to himself that he could not squander his money like that no matter how rich he was. Watson was a child whose considerations were too simple.

“Then if I can repair these white jade slabs, will you be able to let these people go?” Watson asked.

“Watson, if the white jade slabs could be easily repaired, then Carter wouldn’t be so angry,” Reynolds could not help but interject.

How were the broken stone slabs supposed to be repaired, sticking them bit by bit?

The amount of manpower and resources needed to do that was even more than buying a new stone slab.

The guards looked at each other, then looked at Watson in surprise. However, compared to the two merchants, their eyes were filled with gratitude. They had not expected the young master of that family to speak up for them. What a good person. Of course, if they knew that the stone that had caused them to fall was Watson’s doing, they would not have thought so.

“It’s Alright, Uncle Reynolds. I have a way.”

Watson faced Reynolds, who didn’t believe him, and smiled shyly.

“This…”

“It’s alright, Reynolds. Let him try!” Edward said, stroking his chin. Compared to his two merchant friends, he knew Watson better. With all those magical abilities Watson had, perhaps he really did have a way if he said it so confidently.

“Alright then.”

Reynolds sighed. Beside him, Carter did not have any expectations either.

“System, fuse it for me.”

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Watson walked to the white jade fragments on the ground, pointed at the largest fragment that was no larger than a fist, and activated the system’s ability.

A ray of light flashed, and all the crushed stones on the ground collided in front of him. Some of them were not white jade, but ordinary stones.

[Congratulations, Master! You have successfully fused a Silver-tier ore: Arcana Mithril.]

[Silver-tier Arcana Mithril]

[Effect: able to condense the elements of heaven and earth. When carried around, it can increase a cultivator’s cultivation speed by 50%. It is very durable and can resist the attack of a Silver-tier powerhouse.]

[Additional effect: resizing (has good ductility, its volume can change by ten times)]

“Not bad.”

Watson looked at the shining metal plate that was one meter in radius and clapped his hands in satisfaction.

He turned his head and saw a few guards looking at him as if he was a monster, they were mumbling things like “What kind of magic is this?” and “The stone plate that we originally moved was five times bigger than this. This small piece is not enough to build a house.”.

“Oh no, I almost forgot that this thing will become smaller after fusion. I’ll fuse it again.”

Watson slapped his forehead and was about to continue the fusion. There were many stones everywhere. After fusing a large number of ordinary stones together, he believed that they were able to become good materials too. However, before he could do anything, Carter had already grabbed him tightly, with his eyes emitting a green light.

“Watson, Wait a minute. If I’m not mistaken, this piece that you fused with magic should be the legendary Arcana Mithril! Let’s discuss. Can you can sell me a small piece later?”
