Chapter 3 Preparation Before Departure (New Books for Collection, Recommendation)
After eating, I watched Chen Siyu get into the car that came to pick her up from home, and then gradually drove away from his sight.
Gu Cheng's first plan was to prepare a weapon for himself first.
Reaching out to hail a passing taxi, he first went to the nearest ATM and looked at the balance in the card, which was 12,000 yuan.
I took out all the money, and then took the car again to a small village on the outskirts of S City.
This seemingly ordinary small village is a relatively mature cold weapon workshop, which is relatively famous in the circle of cold weapon enthusiasts.
As for the source of the address, Gu Cheng learned from the circle that promoted handmade cold weapons on the Internet.
Although the Great Xia Empire on the Earth Star is extremely strict with the management of weapons within the country, compared to the hot weapons that belong to the absolute forbidden area, the management of cold weapons is much lax.
Besides, it is naturally impossible for the working people who are full of wisdom to do those things that violate the law and discipline, and what we buy and sell is handicrafts, collectibles, and art.
Those cold metal products deeply reflect the wisdom of the ancestors, how commemorative they are.
And in the process of hand-making, it makes it deeply artistic, how can it not be called a work of art?
What is the illegal matter of collecting art?
As soon as Gu Cheng entered the village, the sound of the air hammer hitting the metal came to his ears from a distance.
With his voice, he walked straight along the path in the village.
When I walked to the door of a large house, I heard a sound coming from inside, so I stepped forward and pushed the door hard.
The door was not locked, and with great force, the door opened inside.
Gu Cheng walked straight in.
"Hey, buddy, what are you doing here?"
Seeing Gu Cheng coming in from the door, a young man inside who was originally sorting out a pile of steel bars got up and asked.
"I saw the promotion information of your sale of cold weapons on the Internet, so I asked someone for your address. Anyway, it's not far away, so just come over and take a look, you can choose from more types. ”
Gu Cheng, as a legendary-level sword saint before his rebirth, is now ready to embark on the transcendent path again, and naturally he can't forget his ability to eat before.
Moreover, compared to other professions, early warriors still have some advantages, coupled with Gu Cheng's previous combat experience, it is naturally the most suitable for the opening transition at this time.
As a former legendary sword master, the choice of cold weapons is naturally to choose a long sword.
Hearing Gu Cheng say this, the young man did not hesitate, and said with a smile: "Dude, don't worry, we have been doing it for so many years, relying on credibility and quality."
There are all kinds of styles, so there is definitely something for you. ”
After a pause, the young man added again, "We are all regular handicrafts, we can give you a certificate of collection, you can buy them with confidence, we are doing legal business!"
As the young man looked at the cold weapons that had been packaged, he found that most of them were like goods, which were serious handicrafts.
The few that can be used for battle are not very strong.
At that moment, Gu Cheng asked: "Can you provide customized here?" I want to make a better quality, the ones I just saw, the quality is really a little ......."
The young man was not annoyed, but his tone was a little more eager, "Dude, do you want to make it ordered?" But compared to the previous ones, the price of the custom is not cheap!"
"The price of the custom is expensive, but I hope that the quality of the sword can be more in line with its price!"
Listening to Gu Cheng's words, the young man said confidently, "That's natural, custom-made weapons, we generally use high-manganese steel, and the appearance is plated with a layer of chromium alloy, the whole sword has good toughness, high hardness, wear and shock resistance, and is definitely worth the price!"
Gu Cheng didn't hesitate, first said the requirements for the weapon, and then paid an extra five hundred yuan in order to take the weapon away on the same day.
So, when a weapon came down, Gu Cheng's wallet dried up by more than half.
Gu Cheng planned to enter the dark world again after preparing for a period of time, kill monsters, and absorb the origin to upgrade himself to become a professional.
Judging from the experience of dealing with a large number of monsters in the previous life, in the early stage, if you fight monsters, with Gu Cheng's current stamina, you will definitely not be able to fight for a long time.
In this case, you must find ways to increase your lethality in a short period of time as much as possible.
In this way, heavy weapons are naturally the best choice.
In the evening, a long eight-sided Han sword was placed in front of Gu Cheng.
The long sword is thick and steady, with a total length of 150 centimeters, and the hilt of more than 40 centimeters long is tightly wound by a braided rope, the blade is about 105 centimeters long, the sword body is one finger thick, and the palm is wide.
"Dude, this long sword is made according to your requirements, it weighs more than 20 pounds, although it is said to be a two-handed sword, but ordinary people can't play it, and you ask for a blade, but you must pay attention to it, don't hurt it!"
Gu Cheng smiled, "It's okay, since you ask for it, you must be sure to play, don't worry!"
Holding the handle with both hands, he pulled out the long sword and turned it upside down, with the experience of the previous life, Gu Cheng quickly judged that the quality of the long sword in his hand was indeed good.
Holding the sword and slashing a few times, listening to the sound of the sword breaking through the air, Gu Cheng's heart was quite satisfied.
Although it is still very difficult to use a long sword of this weight in terms of current physical fitness, I believe that after a period of exercise, there will be a great improvement.
Moreover, when you successfully upgrade and become a professional, naturally this heavy weapon will not be considered heavy.
In the youth's astonishment, he plunged the sword back into its scabbard.
Gu Cheng said with satisfaction, "The sword is very good, very satisfied, thank you." ”
"No wonder I made such a heavy sword with confidence, it turned out to be a practitioner. There was a staff member muttering to him.
Gu Cheng didn't refute either, just put the long sword and the instructions for the collection into the gift box he had given, then carried it on his shoulder and turned to leave.
After passing by the sporting goods store and buying some weight-bearing sandbags, Gu Cheng returned to the house he rented for the convenience of his part-time job.
After eating, tying the sandbag to his body, carrying a long sword, and carrying a large bottle of salted cold white open, Gu Cheng planned to take advantage of the night to go to a small park near the rental house to start his exercise program.
Because there is no magic element in the environment of the Earth Star now, even if Gu Cheng was a legendary sword saint in his previous life, he knew a lot of cultivation methods, but the environment did not allow it and there was no way, he could only use the most basic and primitive training methods to enhance his physique now.
For Gu Cheng, the main purpose of exercising at this stage is to make the current body adapt to the long sword and the weight on his body to the greatest extent.
After getting used to the weight of the long sword and exercising his body to his current peak state, with his experience in the dark world, Gu Cheng was confident that he would get off to a better start than in his previous life.
In the dimly lit park, a vague figure kept swinging a long sword with flickering cold light, it was Gu Cheng.
There were more than 20 kilograms of sandbags tied to his body, and he waved more than 10 kilograms of long swords with both hands, but after a while, Gu Cheng's clothes were almost soaked.
The sword constantly repeats the basic moves such as downward slashing, upward picking, horizontal slashing, and thrusting.
After continuing to practice for a while, Gu Cheng put down the long sword and slowly moved his stiff and trembling arms.
I took the salt water that was placed next to me and drank half of it in one go.
After sitting slowly, after a short rest, and when his arms were a little better, Gu Cheng picked up the long sword again and continued to slash, pick, slash, and stab......
