Supplementing yesterday’s third update: Chapter 661! 1/5!
…
"You two, why are you still hanging around? Come here quickly!" Tao Hongjing waved to the two young men behind him.
A man wearing a Taoist robe, whose temperament was very similar to Tao Hongjing's, and an ordinary-looking man who heard the words, stepped forward and knelt down towards Xu Kun.
"Disciple Xu Xun/Guo Yuzhang, meet my great uncle!"
"Nephew, what are you doing?" Xu Kun looked at Tao Hongjing curiously while helping the two of them.
Tao Hongjing smiled and said: "These two incompetent scoundrels, from now on I will ask my junior uncle to train them for me!"
Tao Hongjing's apprentice?
"The two of them are both forging masters who have just entered the realm of A-level casting skills. They are good at making swords. In terms of casting skills, they may be slightly better than Zhang, but they are not inferior..."
Tao Hongjing stepped forward and patted Xu Xun on the shoulder: "He is a dual practitioner of alchemy and casting like me. In addition to A-level casting skills, he also has B-level alchemy skills!"
It is not difficult to see that Tao Hongjing values Xu Xun very much, and he is afraid that he will treat him as a closed disciple!
"Uncle Junior Master, Xiaoxun and you are from the same family, do you hope to take care of me more in the future?"
"Of course!" Xu Kun was overjoyed!
"And this..." Tao Hongjing looked at the last casting master he called this time.
The man, who looked a bit dull and not very old, saw this and walked up in a hurry.
He stuttered: "Brother...disciple...horse, horse, horse, horse..."
Xu Kun:......
Everyone:...
I just listened to the opponent's horse talk for a long time, but he couldn't figure out why.
Xu Kun's eyes flashed, he looked directly into the other person's eyes, smiled lightly and said: "Don't be nervous, speak slowly!"
The other party was startled, and when he met Xu Kun's eyes, he suddenly lost his previous panic.
His expression became calm and he said: "Disciple Ma Jun, meet Senior Xu!"
Ma Jun!
"Uncle Master, Brother Ma was born with a stutter. He has a lot of inconveniences when he is away from home. Also, he comes from a humble background and no one is willing to support him!"
"But you must not underestimate him!"
Having said this, Tao Hongjing showed a serious look on his face.
"Brother Ma is only in his thirties this year, but he is already an A-level casting master. What he is good at is all kinds of miscellaneous things that are different from our castings, and he specializes in the casting and research of construction, heavy weapons, and new war equipment! "
Miscellaneous items all belong to the casting door, and involve many types!
Some people think that miscellaneous items belong to strange skills and tricks, which focus on research but not on casting, so they should not be included in the casting process!
However, Haotian Tower has special miscellaneous casting drawings, which require corresponding casting skills to understand. In addition, there are many talents in the miscellaneous category, so although there are criticisms, miscellaneous items have become an indispensable part of the casting sect!
"Brother Ma has been working behind closed doors since his debut. Until one day, his talent was discovered. Immediately, a powerful man in the casting industry came forward and wanted to accept him as his direct disciple. But later, he gave up and just let Ma Xiao As a registered disciple, I can do whatever I want under his sect!"
A powerful man in the foundry world accepts him as his personal successor? Give up again?
Xu Kun's head was full of confusion.
"Haha, little uncle, you have seen that powerful man before. It is the ancestor of the Gongshu family, Gongshu Pan. He even sent you a congratulatory gift at the apprenticeship ceremony that day!"
"It turns out to be him!"
Master Ou Yezi specially introduced him to that person at that time. Unlike Ou Yezi who was obsessed with it, that person had broken through the seventieth level early. The person who came to congratulate him at that time was just one of his clones!
"When the ancestor of Gongshu Family first met Brother Ma, he had a love for talents. However, after considering Brother Ma's talent, he thought about it for a long time and finally did not choose to accept a disciple!"
"What he said at the time was that it would be too much of a waste for Brother Ma's talent to just learn Gong Loser's mechanism skills!"
waste?
Xu Kunke still remembered that when his master introduced Gongshu Pan to him, he said that his status in the human casting world was even higher than that of his senior brother!
"Uncle Master, I don't know something. Miscellaneous casting emphasizes crafts rather than skills. A true miscellaneous craftsman will not be limited by the thinking of his predecessors, but will create inventions on the basis of his predecessors!" Tao Hongjing said lowly. The voice explained.
Xu Kun realized that Gongshu Pan was a well-known forger in the human race. Under his tutelage, ordinary geniuses could naturally learn everything they wanted to learn. Just studying the various mechanical techniques taught by him would benefit them for life!
Gongshu Pan believes that with Ma Jun's talent, he can stand on his shoulders and take further steps in the future, and should not be limited to the mechanism skills he taught!
"Although Brother Ma has become the registered disciple of Gongshu Master, he can browse Gongshu's mechanism skills and doesn't have to worry about Gongshu's affairs, but there is a drawback!"
When Ma Jun heard this, his face turned red: "I...I don't have...research funds!"
Ordinary casting costs money, and miscellaneous research costs even more!
Ordinary miscellaneous foundry master: learn blueprints and make things!
Elite miscellaneous foundry master: buy blueprints, study blueprints, create blueprints, and then manufacture!
The investment loss in drawings and research and invention is estimated to be no less than that of a person like Pu Yuan who has gone all the way!
At this time, Sikong Shu also came over and said cautiously: "Young Master, Gongshujia is also one of the first-class families in our imperial capital. Since this little brother Ma is valued by the ancestor of Gongshujia, let's dig him over... right?" "
Xu Kun also considered this, looked at Tao Hongjing and Ma Jun and said: "If Brother Ma can join my force, the research funds he needs in the future will naturally be provided by me, just like Senior Nephew Pu Yuan, but in this case, There won’t be any objections from the loser’s side, right?”
Ma Jun blushed, hesitating and speechless, but Tao Hongjing added: "You can rest assured about this. In fact, Brother Ma is not taken seriously by the public loser!"
Ma Jun's face darkened.
Xu Kun narrowed his eyes: "Excluded?"
Ma Jun lowered his head, seeming embarrassed.
But when he saw this, Xu Kun laughed and said: "Not being jealous is mediocre. Since the public losers don't value you, I, Xu Kun, don't care about you. Brother Ma, please settle down here from now on. I will definitely I will help you become a famous forger in the miscellaneous casting industry!"
Ma Jun's eyes burst out with dazzling light, and he nodded solemnly towards Xu Kun!
As a result, one S-level casting master and three A-level casting masters invited by Tao Hongjing all joined Xu Kun's forces!
Moreover, this does not include Jing Ke, Ding Sanpang, and other outstanding casters who serve major families!
In this way, Xu Kun's power has just taken shape, and he has a talent reserve comparable to that of a second-rate family!
No, to be precise, in terms of casters alone, even a first-rate family is not qualified to compare with Xu Kun's emerging force!
Pu Yuan and others only openly joined Xu Kun's command. This is naturally true of first-class families!
But one thing that first-class families don't have is that even if their families are large and have strong funds, they can't invite a divine craftsman to join the family and serve them!
But as Xu Kun is a second-generation closed disciple of Ou Yezi, a foundry sect, as long as he opens the door and gives a sufficient price, most human master craftsmen are willing to cooperate with him!
"Uncle Junior, there is one more thing I have to tell you!"
"Huh?" Xu Kun looked at his little nephew now, and the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he became. He was simply a top HR!
"This is what Uncle Yajiu asked me to convey to you!"
Crow Nine Divine Craftsman?
If Xu Kun, under Ou Yezi's sect, has the most dealings with other people besides his senior brother, it is naturally the Yajiu Divine Craftsman who makes his master look down on him!
But Ou Yezi doesn't like it, but it doesn't affect Yajiu's high status in the entire human race!
The key thing is that Xu Kun remembers that... the Crow Nine Divine Craftsman settled in the Imperial Capital!
"Uncle Yajiu learned that you have arrived in the imperial capital, and originally planned to come to pay you a visit, but he was busy with casting, so he had to ask me to guide him!"
"After learning that you intend to create a new force, in order to support the development of your force, he will hand over 30% of the output of the Guai suit to your junior uncle as the first industry of your force!"
"Return to Egypt?"
Before Xu Kun spoke, Sikong Shu and other elders already had anxious faces.
"Is it the ultimate King-of-War suit that can surpass the dust-free suit?"
