Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 153 It's over, it's a mess
Although Luo Fei was interested in Tang Zheng's design prototype, he was not a fool. When he heard that Tang Zheng wanted to negotiate terms, he immediately became alert.
Therefore, when looking at Tang Zheng, his eyes became much more nervous.
"What conditions?" Luo Fei lowered his voice.
"Sell me that Yuexing dagger!" Tang Zheng lowered his voice.
"..." Luo Fei suddenly straightened up and said with a smile: "You are teasing me!"
The weapon Luo Fei used was not a dagger, so there was no point in keeping it.
As a caster, what could be more gratifying than getting recognition from your opponent?
Of course Luo Fei had no reason to refuse!
"No, not only do I want that dagger, but I also need to make some changes to it..." Tang Zheng handed the scabbard of his dagger to Luo Fei.
Tang Zheng was very satisfied with the feel of holding this sword and dagger.
As soon as Luo Fei picked up Tang Zheng's dagger, he immediately knew what modifications Tang Zheng wanted to make.
When the two were halfway through their conversation, Mo Feng and his friends finally came back!
The sun has already set...
They took quite a bit of time.
If they don't come back, Bailianfang will probably have to send someone to look for them.
As soon as Mo Feng came back, he brought back a shocking news: "Taiyin Extreme Ground! There is actually a Taiyin Extreme Ground in Wuqing Mountain that can produce cold waves!"
"Wuqing Mountain?" When Tang Zheng heard the word cold wave, he immediately thought of a place - the cold pond with clear water.
"Yes, Wu Qingshan, your compass pointed us all the way to Wu Qingshan, and then we saw the white cold wave! I didn't dare to go deep into the cold wave, but I can be absolutely sure that it was the polar phenomenon of the main star of the Moon..."
The craftsmen who did not go all widened their eyes.
Main star polar region!
That was a place where the power of a certain main star was concentrated to a certain degree, forming a strange phenomenon related to the attributes of the main star.
For example, the cold wave phenomenon in the extreme north of Taiyin.
When Tang Zheng heard Mo Feng mention the cold wave, he was sure that what they found was probably the cold pond of clear water where he had dropped [Unsheathed] before.
The power of Taiyin there is indeed very powerful!
Tang Zheng thought about it and decided that after the fight was over, he would find a chance to ask Lu Huang why the material and color of [Unsheathed] changed after it was taken out of the fish intestines.
"Listen to me...that cold wave..." The craftsmen who went there with Mo Feng were all excitedly describing to those who had not been there the "main star pole" that they had never seen before!
Almost every polar region of the lunar main star discovered so far has been developed into a large-scale foundry!
This is because the stability of the lunar force can greatly reduce casting errors.
As they were talking, the topic suddenly shifted to the Yin-Yang Earth.
"The Ice Water Cold Pond that Tang Zheng mentioned is probably difficult to develop." Wang Danyang also considered the issue of development. "If it is developed, it will probably be a large foundry closest to the border. It can increase the speed of military supply, but it can also easily attract strategic attacks."
"The Tianqin family has a long battle line, so I'm afraid they can't take care of this part."
"What about the nearby Changyuan Leng family? Are they capable of taking responsibility?"
Bailianfang is not good at large-scale building construction. Foundries in various places are generally developed in the early stages by specialized departments of the families they are located in, and Bailianfang only sends people to use them.
Of course, the families that developed in the early stages would also receive priority quotas, regular customization, apprenticeship quotas, and other hidden benefits at this foundry...
But when they were talking, Shopkeeper Wu had been holding his hand up for a long time: "Uh, wait, wait a minute, can I ask, should the fight continue?"
“……”Wang Danyang and the others immediately came back to their senses.
continue!
Of course we have to continue.
They were so excited that they even forgot about their business!
This piece of Taiyin land in Wuqing Mountain is only a few days away from the anti-monster front line. The location is really bad, so it is still uncertain whether it will be developed.
Even if it is to be developed, a large Taiyin Foundry cannot be built in a day or two.
Tang Zheng’s finished product has been confirmed, so the competition must continue.
However, once the topic returned to the scoring, several judges were at a loss.
How do we judge winning or losing now?
Luo Fei's work was bought by Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng's work was continued by Luo Fei.
Luo Fei's work uses Tang Zheng's coating technology...
Tang Zheng's work refers to Luo Fei's astrology...
Mr. Chen scratched his head and said, "It's over. It's a mess!"
…
On the casting table, old man Chen's face showed obvious difficulty.
"The final score of this finished product is not very favorable!"
"Yes, they have already acknowledged each other's work..."
"Moreover, Luo Fei used Tang Zheng's technology, and Tang Zheng used Luo Fei's astrology."
"No matter what, Luo Fei's craftsmanship is better!"
"But Tang Zheng has come up with new technology! How can Luo Fei compete with him?"
The craftsmen watching below the stage all held their own opinions and were arguing with each other. Faced with two equally beautiful finished products, it was really difficult to decide which one was better!
The attention of those gambling scouts was also diverted from the "Tai Yin Di" in the crooked building and directed back to this fight!
Almost every gambling detective was muttering quietly: "Draw, draw..."
They are of course the group of people who most hope that this fight will end in a handshake and peace!
Except for a few casinos, once most casinos encounter a tie, it’s a win-win situation!
The scene was completely silent...
Given the current situation, a draw seems to be the best option?
However, Lu Huang's score card was raised first.
Under Luo Fei’s name, he has given a rating - fifteen!
The full score for the finished casting is 20 points.
Lu Huang's score is not really high.
"Fifteen? It's actually fifteen?" Almost no one in the audience was not shocked.
"I must admit that the Star-crossing Dagger is very difficult to forge. With your strength as a three-star warrior, you did a great job in forging a Star-crossing Dagger. The star power resonance also exceeded my expectations..." Lu Huang did not hesitate to praise Luo Fei for his good work, "But I didn't expect that your forging heart is so immature. It will take a long time to hone it! If you can use the original foundry furnace to complete the fire control, the star power resonance of the final product will definitely be improved a little bit!"
While controlling the fire, Luo Fei damaged the stove that he was most familiar with.
If the foundry had not been damaged, the parts he produced would definitely be better than the second time!
"Yes." Luo Fei himself admitted that his finished product was not the best.
The second sign Lu Huang raised was for Tang Zheng's score.
Seventeen!
Lu Huang gave Tang Zheng a higher score than Luo Fei!
"You have just started learning casting and you haven't been so ambitious as to choose to cast a two-star weapon. Very good!" Lu Huang first affirmed the design of Tang Zheng's work.
"Yes." Tang Zheng nodded.
"Although your design is simple, its use is not simple at all! Just as you said, it is a prototype. In the future, it will be an indispensable auxiliary item for warriors, casters, star hunters of the Luo family, and even explorers who specialize in finding paradises like the Taiyin Extreme Land!" Lu Huang spoke very highly of Tang Zheng's Star-Pointing Needle.
The prototype made by Tang Zheng has made an immeasurable contribution to the entire Xingyao Continent!
But the audience was a little confused...
If you said it so well, why not give it a full 20 points?
What about the remaining three points?
Not only the audience in the audience, but even Wang Danyang and Ouyang Luoluo on the stage, looked at Lu Huang.
Lu Huang quietly held up Tang Zheng's work - the Star-Pointing Needle.
But his eyes did not fall on the star needle in his hand, but he raised his head and looked at Tang Zheng, stretching out three fingers.
"There are three details that are not done well!" Lu Huang said, "First, after the jade was taken out of the furnace, you rushed to assemble it, waiting only for its surface to cool down, but not for its interior to cool down completely. Second, the floating pattern of the pointer was not dyed with star color powder, so as time goes by, the color difference between the star disk and the star needle on the floating image will become smaller and smaller. Third, you didn't do a very important thing - you didn't prepare a special box to store it!"
"..." Tang Zheng subconsciously looked at the box of the dagger he bought from Luo Fei.
If Lu Huang hadn't mentioned it, he really wouldn't have noticed the specialness of this box!
At the bottom of the box, there is a flower outlined in purple and gold.
Tang Zheng had previously thought it was just a flower, but now looking at it again, he realized that it seemed to be some kind of formation!
Seeing that Tang Zheng understood, Lu Huang continued, "Of course, these three details are actually related to the same thing - the service life of the Star Pointer!"
Tang Zheng took a deep breath, raised his head, and said, "Thank you for your advice!"
Lu Huang only raised three details.
As for the shortcomings that Tang Zheng had mentioned before, Lu Huang did not mention them to deduct points.
Because what Tang Zheng cast was a prototype, and those shortcomings were the inevitable problems that would exist in a prototype!
Since it is a "prototype", it is impossible for it to kill anyone who stands in its way or destroy any Buddha who stands in its way once it is taken out.
After Lu Huang put down the sign, Mo Feng raised his sign.
His rating had already been written, but when he looked at it, it was exactly the same as Lu Huang's!
“Tsk, it seems that Bailianfang’s judging criteria are very consistent…” the audience in the audience said one after another.
Bailianfang treats its works in an almost harsh manner.
Although not everyone likes it, everyone will respect it.
However, since he was not from Bailianfang, he naturally did not need to follow such a strict attitude. Ouyang Luoluo raised his sign and said with a smile: "The three details are the same problem, so I will give Tang Zheng 19 points."
Ouyang Luoluo was not as strict as Lu Huang in grading Luo Fei.
Although Luo Fei destroyed the furnace, making it impossible for the finished product to be better than the previous one, she still gave it 17 points.
After all, Luo Fei's finished product was also cast in one go, which she already thought was very rare!
The craftsmen in the audience looked at Wang Danyang again...
There wasn’t even a name on Wang Danyang’s sign.
Because, he raised both hands, which were two full marks!
“Compared to the time they spent, their finished products deserve full marks.” Wang Danyang simply added, “If this was a work that took a month or two to produce, even if it was a little better, I would not give it full marks!”
He values casting time.
Even though Luo Fei failed in his fire control attempt once, he was able to produce a Yuexing dagger , which was already very beautiful!
As for other details, Wang Danyang didn't consider them at all.
What we want is the result!
Four out of five judges have already given their scores, and finally, only Mr. Chen is left!
