Chapter 53: Master Forge - Qi Cast
Within the clouds, after observing the corresponding situation on the islands below, Xu Yue controlled the flyship to retreat, found a sea area where ships were scarce, and lowered the Sun Chase from the sky.
As a large armed warship of the Human Empire, the Chase Ri can naturally be amphibious in the sea and air, and the flight auxiliary sails on both sides of the hull are retracted, and the entire flying ship will turn into a large building ship and land steadily on the sea.
As the angle of the four inscription engines adjusted, the Celestial began to drive through the sea, moving rapidly in the direction of the island.
Twenty minutes later, the Chasing Sun followed a merchant ship it encountered on the way, and completed its docking at the large trading port of the Divine Forging Country, where there were many ships docked from various countries, and many of them were larger ships than the Chasing Sun, so his flying ship did not have much to note except for its bizarre shape.
As an island country that frequently communicates with the outside world, the shipping industry is extremely developed, and the process of berthing at the port is also quite perfect.
Especially when Xu Yue showed some means and showed the identity of the Xuanwu people, the registration efficiency of the port staff was significantly accelerated, and a series of processes such as registration, scanning, and payment were quickly completed, and he also left the port in the afternoon and set foot on the land of the Divine Forging Kingdom.
Although the country is named after the country, there is only one island in the land area, so most of the inhabitants are gathered in the large city in the center of the island, which is also the capital of the country.
The city is very large, occupying nearly half of the entire island, and unlike the ancient architectural style of the Xuanwu Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Divine Forging Kingdom is the product of a combination of various architectural styles.
Walking on the wide streets, you can see antique wooden buildings on both sides, and you can also see high-rise buildings full of science and technology, with different styles, but there is a strange beauty of intertwining the past and the future.
There are many shops along the way, among which the most frequent ones are naturally all kinds of blacksmith shops that sell blade weapons, as well as raw material shops that sell all kinds of forging materials.
As for the country of Sturt, which is closer to the country of Jinshi, it will also consume a huge amount of mineral materials every year, but it is not for sale, but for supply.
Most of the people who come and go in these shops are also merchants who come to buy large quantities of equipment to sell back to their home countries, or warriors or mechanics who need to order high-quality weapons.
After wandering the streets of the national capital for a while, and after asking for directions several times, Xu Yue found the residence of the master blacksmith that Manzhu Sawa had said.
This is a mansion in the corner of the national capital, the area is very large, but the exterior wall is a little dilapidated, and even the red paint on the door of the mansion has some signs of peeling, it looks like it should be some years old.
"Knock, knock......"
Xu Yue stepped forward and pulled up the knocker on one side of the vermilion gate, knocked a few times, and was knocked on the copper ring and the door by the metal beast's head, and the long and thick knock sound suddenly sounded, which made people feel refreshed when they heard it.
The sound of knocking on the door was in his ears, Xu Yue, who was standing at the door, was stunned, and looked at the knocker in his hand with some surprise.
He looked at it intently, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, this small beast head knocker was actually a piece of equipment, and it was of high quality.

"Looks like you've come to the right place."
After reading the introduction of the items of the beast's head knocker, Xu Yue's eyes were full of eagerness, even the door knocker was a high-quality blue equipment, and it could be seen from this detail that this forging master was by no means a person who sold his reputation.
And the god craftsman Qi Ye mentioned in the equipment production area is not the name of the forging master he is looking for, I think it should be the ancestor of this forging master.
The Divine Craftsman is the highest honor of the Divine Forging Country, but not every generation has people who can obtain it, at least in this generation of the Divine Forging Kingdom, there is no one who can inherit the title of Divine Craftsman, and the most recent craftsman who has won the title of Divine Craftsman has been more than 100 years ago.
"Who knocked?"
Just as Xu Yue was looking at the pepper beast on the vermilion gate, a man's rough inquiry voice came from behind the door.
Then the door was opened, revealing a tall middle-aged figure with thick arms, and a pair of broad eyes under the thick black eyebrows looked Xu Yue up and down, and said:
"Xuanwu people? Why are you here? ”
Xu Yue took a half step back and handed over Manzhu Sahua's letter of introduction, his tone calm.
"In the Lower Xuanwu Kingdom, come and visit Master Qi Zhu."
Qi Zhu noticed the red Manshu Sawflower Stamen logo on the envelope, his pupils shrank slightly, and when he looked up, there was already a little more jealousy in his gaze when he looked at Xu Yue.
"I'm Qi Zhu, since the distinguished guests are visiting, then let's go inside, please!"
As one of the top seven Shadow Assassins in the Assassin world, Manju Sahua's reputation is still very useful, after all, no matter for anyone, there is only one life.
And life is often the most common trading weight used by assassins; Death was the most effective deterrent to the Assassins.
Even if he didn't know the specific identity of the man in front of him at this time, as long as he had something to do with the Shadow Assassin, he couldn't help but take Qi Zhu not take it seriously.
In the face of Qi Zhu's invitation, Xu Yue naturally accepted the order and stepped into this mansion that had been around for some years.
Behind him, Qi Zhu looked at the unresponsive Jiaotu beast head on the vermilion gate, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and then closed the gate.
"This way, please."
Under the leadership of Qi Zhu, the two of them walked to the interior of the mansion one after another, compared to the old and damaged exterior walls, the interior of the mansion was quite well repaired.
Beyond the wall after entering the door, an elegant and atmospheric Chinese courtyard comes into view, during which pavilions and pavilions, eaves and green tiles are neatly arranged; Lush forests and bamboos, pine and cypress are scattered, and there is no lack of vitality in the exquisiteness.
It can be seen that this Qi Zhu master is a real big family, but it seems that there are not many people in this huge mansion, and it seems a little too quiet.
More than ten minutes later, in a pavilion in the courtyard of Qi Mansion, Xu Yue and Qi Zhu sat opposite each other, and on the round table in front of them were two teas, a few sauces of refreshments, and a letter that had been disassembled.
The fragrance of tea accompanied by the sound of thin conversation came from the pavilion, and then was diluted by the rustling of bamboo and wood on both sides, and the murmuring of flowing water on the next side.
"Repairing the deck of a ship is a trivial matter, there are many mountains and forests on the continent on the east side of the Divine Forging Country, among which there is a kind of golden silk paulownia wood, which is strong and steely, and contains gold wire, which is used as a deck material, but the price is a little more expensive."
"As for the ...... of forging skills"
Inside the pavilion, Qi Zhu swore a vow when talking about repairing the deck, but when it came to teaching the forging skills, he seemed to be a little hesitant, as if he was thinking of some suitable excuse to refuse.
Although the Divine Forging Kingdom has been sending a large number of forging talents to outside countries, not all skills will be passed on, and some core key technologies are often kept secret, and are generally only taught among blood relatives or a small number of disciples.
As the forging inheritance of the ancestors who had produced divine craftsmen, the forging skills mastered by Qi Zhu are undoubtedly the core of the core within the entire Divine Forging Country, and they are rarely taught to outsiders, let alone Xu Yue, an outsider who is not a Divine Forging Country.
If someone else came to ask, Qi Zhu would have refused decisively and mercilessly, and directly closed the door to send off the guest, but the person in front of him couldn't.
In Manzhu Shahua's letter, he had learned the identity of this man, the new Shadow Assassin, and before taking office, he had single-handedly destroyed the Asaka Gate, one of the six major sects of the Xuanwu Kingdom, and almost killed the old Shadow Assassin Blackbird.
These deeds made him reluctant to make the relationship between each other too stiff, even if he was in the Divine Forging Kingdom overseas, he had heard of the names of the Black Bird and the Asuka Gate, from which he could infer that Xu Yue's strength was not something he could fight against.
In the face of such a strong and unrestrained embryo killing, his desire to survive is very strong, for this kind of person, the name of the so-called forging master is not very good.
In the eyes of these Shadow Assassins, the status is not worthy of awe, the old lord of the dignified country at the beginning was almost successfully assassinated by the former Shadow Assassin Chief, he doesn't feel that his status can be higher than that one.
He was not the only forging master in the Divine Forging Country, so he was cautious about refusing.
