Chapter 69: Striking Iron

Shi Mu pondered in place for a moment, then shook his head, putting aside this sudden thought, how rare the warlock talent was, the possibility that he could have it was really unlikely. The most important thing for him at the moment is to find a task that suits his current ability and can quickly accumulate silver taels.

The other tasks in these screens are generally to collect some kind of rare elixir or rare ore, and there are also those who seek the help of cultivating some special exercises, and some need to go to the world to solve some difficulties, in short, there are all kinds of bizarre tasks, and the reward is as much as five or six thousand taels, and as little as hundreds of taels.

Compared with the warlock's task reward, Shi Mu was greatly disappointed.

The rewards for a few sect missions with blue handwriting are also expensive, but the general difficulty is not low, and most of them need to be completed by the team, and even the Black Flame Order, which is difficult to obtain from other means, is also among the rewards.

But in the current situation of Shi Mu, it can't be done at all.

His expression suddenly moved, and he walked towards a screen, and his eyes fell on a line of black letters:

"Recruit a strong martial artist to forge two hundred pieces of refined iron, and the commission for each piece is ninety taels!"

Shi Mu had not practiced the acquired exercises, he already had the strength of a thousand catties, and now that the first layer of the Heavenly Phenomena Gong has been cultivated, not only has it increased its strength by three or four hundred catties, but if it is assisted by mobilizing the true qi of the heavenly phenomena in his body, his strength can also be doubled, this task is naturally not a problem for him, and the remuneration is not low.

Although there are already a few fiery cinnabar signs on it, there should be other people who have taken on this task at the same time, but this mission does not indicate a limit on the number of people flying.

Shi Mu beckoned to the desk in the depths of the main hall, and a black-shirted miscellaneous disciple walked over quickly.

After a while, Shi Mu looked at a black iron plaque in his hand, with a flame engraved on the back and "seventy-three" engraved on the front, smiled slightly, and walked out.

......

The scorching midday sun shrouded the entire valley, and the flames in the furnace in Zhao Ji's blacksmith shop were blazing, making the temperature in the shop extremely high, and three extremely strong young men were sitting naked at the door, resting while enjoying the coolness.

"Senior Brother Lin, it seems that we have no problem beating a hundred pieces of refined iron today. One of the short, sturdy young men said with a smile on his face.

"That's right, let's beat another fifty pieces of fine iron in the afternoon, and nine thousand taels of silver will be in hand, and each person can get almost three thousand taels!" A young man with a big black mole of soybeans at the corner of his mouth looked back at fifty pieces of refined iron, and his face was also full of smiles.

The remuneration of three thousand taels is nothing compared to those tasks that do not move tens of thousands of taels, but those tasks cannot be completed in one day, ten days and a half months or even longer, so the remuneration of three thousand taels a day is very amazing.

"This money is not something that anyone can earn, the three of us are either talented, or we have used special potions to refine our bodies since we were children, and our strength is comparable to ordinary people. A dark-skinned teenager rubbed his sore arm and said proudly.

"It's just too hard, it is estimated that when all the 200 pieces of fine iron are finished tomorrow, I will have to rest for at least three or four days. ”

The black-skinned boy's words immediately resonated with the other two, they are also sore now, this calcined iron is really hard work, the temperature in the blacksmith shop is extremely high, and each piece of iron essence needs to be forged nearly three hundred times with a two-hundred-pound giant hammer to complete, and the three of them sweat like rain every time they hit a piece, and they need to rest for a while before they can lay down a piece.

These three teenagers are all C-level disciples that the Black Demon Sect has just recruited this year, and the three of them are also practicing exercises to strengthen the body, so they have a good relationship on weekdays, and today the three of them took over this task together early in the morning, and they came as soon as possible.

"Looks like someone has taken on another mission!" Suddenly, the dark-skinned teenager suddenly frowned and whispered.

The other two immediately turned their heads to follow his gaze, only to see Zhao Pingzheng, the owner of the blacksmith shop, smiling and leading a tall C-level disciple towards the shop.

"Hmph, I'm afraid he'll soon retreat, and besides, the three of us can't beat him, and everyone will work harder and fight as much as possible!" the young man with a big black mole on the corner of his mouth snorted coldly.

After saying that, he straightened up and walked towards the blacksmith shop, and the other two teenagers immediately got up and followed, and after a while, there was a continuous sound of "dang" and "dang" in the blacksmith shop again.

At this time, the slightly chubby blacksmith shop owner stopped when he was still five or six steps away from the door, turned his head and said to the tall young man beside him:

"Senior Brother Shi, after a while, you put the fine iron you beat behind you, as long as the quality is passable, I will pay you on the spot for ninety taels of silver for each piece. When the time comes, I will help you return the task card to Guangyuan Palace. ”

This tall Black Demon Sect disciple is naturally Shi Mu.

"Okay, thank you Senior Brother Zhao!" Shi Mu nodded.

With that, he strode towards the blacksmith's shop, and soon disappeared into the doorway.

As soon as Shi Mu entered the craftsman's shop, he felt a wave of heat rushing towards him, and the first thing he saw was an extremely tall calcined iron furnace, and five or six naked men were busy by the stove.

Not far from the calcined iron furnace is the iron forging platform, about two zhang long, wide and nearly two feet thick, the platform body is completely made of cast iron, at this time three extremely strong naked teenagers, are sweating like rain around the platform, laboriously waving the huge hammer in their hands, desperately forging the red iron.

Although they were calcining fine iron, the three naked teenagers still glared back at Shi Mu with unkind faces.

Shi Mu didn't care, his eyes swept away, and he found fifty pieces of black and heavy fine iron behind the three naked young men, and his heart couldn't help but move, the task was only two hundred pieces of fine iron, and it was only released in the early morning, and it was only half a day, and a quarter of it had been completed.

He didn't bother to take off his clothes, and when he swept his eyes, he found two large hammers in the corner of the wall that were similar to those in the hands of the three people, and he walked up to him in three steps and two steps, and held one of them in his hand with his right hand, and with a slight force, he lifted it up like a lamp grass, and waved it twice casually.

Shi Mu smiled slightly.

This hammer weighs more than 200 catties, and if you want to strike iron with this, you must have at least 500 catties of strength, which is not a problem for yourself at all, and you don't even need to urge your true qi.

At this moment, a naked man beside the stove had already clamped a large piece of reddish iron and put it on the iron platform, and he immediately took a few steps forward, and smashed the big iron hammer in his hand hard.

There was a loud "dang", and the place where the hammer and the red iron collided suddenly sparked, and the iron faintly shrunk.

The three naked teenagers opposite him moved at the same time, and their eyes showed horror.

"That's a lot of strength!"

If they were to be beaten with the same iron, they would have to be calcined three times to have such a noticeable effect.

Boss Zhao, who was standing at the door and observing, also changed his face, and then he was overjoyed, the greater his strength, the faster the speed would naturally be, his batch of fine iron would be in a hurry, if he only relied on the previous three people, it would take at least tomorrow to complete, with this Shi Mu joining, I am afraid it will be a lot earlier.

(Sweating, I ate instant noodles at home this morning, somen noodles at noon, and fried noodles made by myself in the evening, and I feel like I want to vomit after eating noodles!)
