Gambling?
Those present showed a trace of disdain on their faces.
You Xu Shuang is a first-level armor master, and He Yangsun is just a trainee armor master.
Even though everyone knew that He Yangsun was quite capable, he had not yet been certified, so he could not be considered a genuine armor master.
It's really shameless for you to challenge like this.
"Xu Shuang, the rules of gambling for armor masters -" An old man with a black beard just opened his mouth, but was stared at by Xu Shuang and did not dare to say anything more.
He Yangsun looked at Xu Shuang with a blank look on his face: "If it was a gambling fight between the armor masters before, I will definitely respond."
Then, he glanced around and said softly: "But I won't gamble on the engagement."
He looked solemnly, looked at everyone in the Zheng family, and said solemnly: "That is disrespectful to the Zheng family and Miss Yuyan of the Zheng family."
These words made the head of the Zheng family and others show a somewhat appreciative smile.
Xu Shuang's expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to speak out, he heard He Yangsun's voice again: "Besides, you are not qualified to bet with me about the engagement."
Not qualified!
This sentence directly made Xu Shuang's complexion turn livid.
Although others felt that He Yangsun's words were a bit contemptuous, they all smiled softly when they saw Xu Shuang's appearance.
Who told you to be too arrogant?
"I'll bet on these two dragon-scale swords, and I'll bet on your armor!"
Xu Shuang gritted his teeth, shouted loudly, raised his hand, and a pair of long knives flew down.
This long sword has dragon scale golden light all over its body, and the layers upon layers look like shining golden scales.
Two phantoms like swimming dragons appeared on the blade.
"The Xu family's dragon scale sword is a top-notch treasure that can be used in conjunction with a third-level armor master."
"My dear, the Xu family actually gave these treasures to Xu Shuang. Is the identity of Elder Xu Shuang's illegitimate son true?"
Seeing this pair of long knives, a discussion spread in the lobby.
When Xu Shuang heard the discussion about his illegitimate son status, not only was he not annoyed, but a chuckle formed on his lips.
Although his identity cannot be made public, everyone knows that he is the illegitimate son of the Xu family.
And he is also the illegitimate son of a fifth-level puppet master.
This elder who was supposed to be Xu Shuang's uncle was actually his biological father, which he only found out two years ago.
This great-uncle has always put a lot of effort into him, so that he has the qualification of a first-level puppet master by the time he reaches adulthood.
This pair of priceless dragon scale knives was given by that great uncle.
Seeing the dragon-scaled swords, everyone in the lobby turned to look at He Yangsun.
This guy, do you dare to challenge?
"Okay, I'll bet." He Yangsun nodded.
Han Muye chuckled and placed the jade in his hand on the table.
This Xu Shuang is very clever. He wants to bet on He Yangsun's armor.
If this armor is really exported, the He family will not be able to use other treasures to propose marriage.
Although it is said that it is not a gambling fight for an engagement, in fact, this battle is not much different, it is a gambling fight for an engagement.
Seeing that the two had reached a gambling agreement, the Zheng family looked at each other and stopped trying to dissuade them.
There are naturally strong people who are qualified to make decisions in the lobby, and the gambling venue is in the open space outside the lobby.
Within a moment, He Yangsun and Xu Shuang were standing in the gambling square, surrounded by people.
"Miss, that's He Yangsun. Xu Shuang of the Xu family wanted to make a bet with him, but he didn't agree." Behind the crowd, a girl in a blue dress spoke in a low voice.
Beside her is a young girl wearing a floral dress, her hair tied up with a golden crown, smartly dressed and with delicate features.
"Miss, do you want Mr. He to win or Mr. Xu to win?" The girl in green came closer and spoke again.
"Xu Shuang is a villain, I-" The woman felt something was wrong as she spoke, and stopped immediately, with a blush on her face.
The woman in green clothes chuckled lightly, clenched her fists and said, "Well, I also hope Mr. He wins. I am your first-in-law, young lady. I will be sleeping with you in the future. I don't want to sleep with that Mr. Xu."
Ahead, a Zheng family servant in green clothes slowly turned his head and saw the girl's face.
"What are you looking at?" The girl glared fiercely.
"boom--"
Ahead, a war puppet has fallen, attracting everyone's attention.
This is a nine-foot war puppet with a body made of gold and bronze. Its arms are thick and its fingers are sharp enough to crush rocks.
Golden light flashed in the eyes of the war puppet, looking towards He Yangsun standing in front.
Xu Shuang, who was standing behind the war puppet, shouted lowly. Regardless of the fact that He Yangsun had not yet summoned the war puppet and the armor, he had already urged the war puppet to rush towards He Yangsun.
The war puppet took one step forward, closed his fist and punched out in one go.
"Okay! This blow is decisive!"
"Yes, yes, Xu Shuang's ability to control war puppets has reached the level of entering a palace."
"After all, they are the descendants who were personally trained by the Xu family. They are very skilled at it."
If an expert takes action, he will know whether something is there or not.
This punch breaks through the resistance of the void and triggers the roaring wind. It is already the most powerful method among first-level puppet masters.
Looking at He Yangsun who was motionless in front of him, Xu Shuang showed a smile on his face.
This guy must be scared out of his wits.
Thinking about it, he must have never seen such a method of controlling war puppets, nor had he seen such a master.
What masters can there be in a small Tacheng?
The gambling battles in the tower city are just child's play. The real master should watch Maple Forest City!
"boom--"
After a punch fell, He Yangsun raised his hand and blocked the front of Zhan Puppet's fist with both arms.
The war puppet's roaring punch hit his arm, causing ripples.
defense.
Use the power of battle armor to inspire defense methods.
There is no need to activate the entire armor to cover the body, just borrow the power of the armor.
With one punch, the huge force was removed layer by layer.
When the fist touched He Yangsun's chest, it had no power left.
"hiss--"
"Why is this defensive power so strong?"
"It's not about defensive power, it's about the ingenious use of defensive methods!"
There was a sound of emotion all around.
Many people had expressions of wonder on their faces.
"Huh, I'm scared to death. I thought this Mr. He couldn't even catch a punch from the puppet." The girl in green whispered, reaching out and patting her chest.
The girl in the floral dress beside her bit her lip, her eyes filled with excitement.
"Hmph——" Seeing that the punch was blocked, Xu Shuang snorted coldly and shouted: "Let me see how many punches you can block!"
After the words fell, he raised his hand and struck one by one. The war puppet charged up his strength again and punched down.
He Yangsun didn't move, but stretched his arm forward, grabbed the wrist of the war puppet, and gently pulled it.
When Zhan Puppet punched out, he was taken aside.
"What a trick!"
There was a loud shout from outside the battle circle.
This sentence was whispered by many people.
He Yangsun's method of breaking this punch was indeed a good one. Not only did he accurately spot the opponent's attack, he was also able to easily resolve it.
Xu Shuang looked ugly, gritted his teeth, and roared, leading the puppet to attack with all his strength.
But He Yangsun in front of him didn't even move a single step. He just moved or led to neutralize the attack of the war puppet.
Moreover, the war puppet seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and could not retreat at all.
"Master He Yangsun's combat prowess is rare among his peers." Someone stroked his beard and spoke in a low voice.
"It's rare that this good-tempered man can only defend but not attack." An elder from the Zheng family even looked at his son-in-law and chuckled.
Comparing the two, He Yangsun was far ahead of his opponent in terms of combat power and strategic vision.
Xu Shuang, in the end, is just a sideline, an illegitimate child who cannot stand up to the limelight.
"Die!" After ten moves, Xu Shuang roared wildly, and the body of the war puppet suddenly expanded, with flames emitting from his body.
"Level 3 war puppet, changing form?"
"This war puppet is actually a third-level war puppet, with its strength sealed by a secret method!"
There were sighs and exclamations all around.
The flaming war puppet punched He Yangsun in the head.
This punch caused the girl in the floral dress to cover her mouth.
Seeing the flaming punch fall, He Yangsun took a slight breath.
"brush--"
A layer of bright silver armor appeared on his body.
The moment the armor emerged, he paused and disappeared.
Two cyan flowing blades flashed away!
The sword's light dragged a two-foot-long mark on the war puppet's chest.
"Stab-"
The blade sliced across, and the flames rose.
The light of this sword was actually filled with light of flames.
"Peng——"
Going around the back of the war puppet, He Yangsun raised his swords simultaneously and slashed down hard.
It was too late for Zhan Puppet to turn back.
Xu Shuang's eyes widened as he watched He Yangsun's two swords strike the war puppet's arms, and followed the cracks in his arms to remove the pair of thick arms.
"puff--"
The war puppet was seriously injured, and Xu Shuang, who was pulling and controlling the war puppet, spurted out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
He Yangsun held the sword in both hands and stood there, his armor shining with silver light.
"Amazing!"
"Good sword skills!"
There was cheering all around.
"Okay, good armor..." The woman in the floral dress whispered, her face flushed, and she turned around and left.
"Miss, this uncle is so powerful!" the woman in green shouted from behind.
In the entire square, countless low voices sounded, all looking at He Yangsun.
"Haha, Mr. He, ah no, it's my uncle, what a trick." An elder from the Zheng family chuckled.
No one took a second look at Xu Shuang who fell to the ground.
Those who lose in gambling are not worthy of sympathy.
What's more, for them, Xu Shuang himself is the one who disrupts the situation.
"Congratulations, what kind of son-in-law can the Zheng family have such a brave and fast son-in-law?"
"Today's wine is actually a wedding wine, which is rare."
Everyone in the square dispersed and took their seats again.
Xu Shuang stood up slowly, gritted his teeth, and left in embarrassment.
Walking with him was the blacksmith Qi Mingsheng.
Both of them lost the bet and the bet.
He Yangsun returned to the banquet, looked at Han Muye, and bowed.
Whether it was a gambling fight or the caravan traveling through the wasteland before, without Han Muye's guidance and training with the war puppet, without the help of the war puppet made by Han Muye, He Yang and Sun had all explained.
Looking at Han Muye now, he was much more respectful.
On the other hand, Han Muye's expression remained as usual, and he drank and chatted happily with the elders of the Zheng family who came to greet him.
There were also many experts in the field who were interested in Han Muye's weapon refining skills and came to ask if they could help refine the armor and puppets, or repair the armor and puppets.
Of course Han Muye would not refuse.
These armors and puppets contain memories that allow him to learn more about the cultivation methods of the Galaxy Universe.
Moreover, helping these people refine and repair their armor and puppets can quickly enhance his own reputation around Jade Tao City.
With his reputation, he can be invited to participate in the exploration when the ruins of Jade Tao City are opened.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.
The atmosphere in the lobby was warm, and many people's expressions changed when they looked at He Yangsun.
This is already the confirmed son-in-law of the Zheng family.
After the Zheng family banquet dispersed, it was still Zheng Changkong who sent Han Muye back to the inn.
As for He Yangsun, he was left at the Zheng family to discuss some marriage matters.
"Master Han, look, this is my war puppet. The shoulder armor is damaged in a fight." When sending Han Muye back to the inn, Zheng Changkong summoned his war puppet and said.
Han Muye looked at the war puppet.
He is nearly ten feet tall, covered in black armor, with a black spear in his hand, a black mask on his face, and a cyan glare flashing in his eyes.
This is a level four war puppet.
There was indeed damage on the left shoulder armor of the war puppet. It should have been cut by a long knife, which shattered a piece of shoulder armor with good defense.
This shoulder armor is damaged, and the entire body of the war puppet loses some of its overall defense, and its agility and balance are also much worse.
Han Muye reached out and patted the war puppet, his eyes falling on Zheng Changkong.
The energy and blood are full, the spiritual energy is thick, the cultivation level is extremely suitable for this war puppet, and the power of the soul is strong enough to activate the war puppet.
"Thirty thousand source coins, I'll help you repair this war puppet."
Han Muye said aloud.
Thirty thousand source coins?
Zheng Changkong was stunned.
This price is really ridiculously expensive!
This level four war puppet only costs more than 50,000 source coins.
Just to repair a shoulder armor like this, does it cost 30,000 source coins?
If he hadn't just gotten married to the He family, Zheng Changkong might have turned around and left.
He was a little embarrassed at this time.
It is said that Han Muye's price is too expensive, it seems that he is short of money.
But he had to pay 30,000 source coins to repair a piece of shoulder armor, and he didn't want to be ripped off like that.
"Ahem, Master Han, I have to use this war puppet recently. I will send it back for repair in a while." Zheng Changkong said, reaching out to put away the war puppet.
"Want to use it?" Han Muye raised his hand to hold the war puppet's shoulders, and then said: "This war puppet has a total of 3,420 parts, 132 of which are damaged."
"The shoulder armor on the left shoulder is shattered, causing the core of the entire war puppet to tremble. If you use this war puppet to fight with someone of the same level, you will die."
Must die!
Zheng Changkong opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Don't believe it?" Han Muye raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to grab the war puppet, and dragged him into the room.
Zheng Changkong followed and walked in.
Han Muye shook his hand, and the body of the war puppet fell into pieces.
He fluttered his palms, sorted the armor pieces and parts and put them aside, and then put the damaged armor pieces and parts in one place.
No more, no less, just one hundred and thirty-two yuan.
Zheng Changkong knelt down and looked at these armor parts.
Some scars are obvious, some are subtle hidden scars, and some are almost invisible, but you can still feel the damage if you look carefully.
He didn't understand why Master Han knew that his battle puppet had so many injuries just by looking at it.
Shouldn't the person who knows his puppets best be himself?
But for so long, I had no idea that there were so many injuries on my battle puppet.
This is because I don’t know enough about fighting puppets and don’t take care of them enough.
When fighting like this against a puppet of the same level or a strong one, he might be defeated or even defeated due to serious internal damage.
"Master Han, I——" Zheng Changkong stood up, with a look of shame on his face.
"Thirty thousand source coins is just 30,000 source coins. It's just that our Zheng family will have an important gambling match in three days."
"I wonder if the master can repair the war puppet within three days?"
This is the master, whose poisonous vision is astonishing.
It is his luck to meet such a master. Thirty thousand source coins are nothing. The most important thing is that he can repair his war puppet.
For a puppet master, fighting puppets is where his life is entrusted.
"It doesn't take three days." Han Muye shook his head, raised his hand, and all the war puppet parts flew onto the table in front of him.
In his palm, a blue flame rose.
Pieces of spiritual materials are changing in the palm of the hand. Some are melting broken parts into the flames, and some are refining the spiritual materials into parts.
Right in front of Zheng Changkong, repaired parts appeared one by one.
However, within half an hour, these parts were repaired.
Among them, the repair of the damaged shoulder armor was even more meticulous.
"Would you like to add 10,000 source coins and I can help you refine all the parts?" Han Muye raised his head and looked at Zheng Changkong.
"Yes!" Zheng Changkong said without hesitation.
In this half hour, he saw Han Muye's superb refining and forging methods, which were definitely not ordinary blacksmiths.
There are endless repair methods, many of which Zheng Changkong has never seen before.
Each of the repaired war puppet parts appears to be extremely fine, and every spiritual pattern on it is clear and agile.
Much better than brand new parts.
"Buzz——"
A golden flame rose up and enveloped all the parts.
Han Muye put his hand into the flames and moved his fingertips quickly.
Spiritual patterns are scattered on those parts.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a faint golden halo on all the parts, and a spiritual pattern flashed.
"You can control a level five war puppet, right?"
"Would you like me to help you upgrade the war puppet to level five? This war puppet is your own. If it is upgraded to level five, it will be very suitable for you to serve as your master."
Looking at Zheng Changkong, who looked excited and nodded repeatedly, Han Muye stretched out two fingers: "Twenty thousand source coins."
"Okay!" Zheng Changkong didn't hesitate at all.
Han Muye raised his hand again, and all the war puppet parts flew up, and then were wrapped in a stream of cyan fairy light. In his palm, golden flames rose, and pieces of cyan spiritual materials merged into the flames, and then turned into wisps of water vapor. Parts surrounded.
This time, it's faster.
When the flames and water vapor disappeared, every part had a hint of wind and spirit.
"I think you belong to the power type. This war puppet is also relatively strong but weak in speed, so I increase its speed and use the power of the wind spirit to support it. Do you have any objections?"
Han Muye looked at Zheng Changkong.
Zheng Changkong's face turned red and he shook his head repeatedly.
Han Muye coughed lightly, and then his eyes fell on the war puppet in front of him.
"Then, should we assemble it now, or increase its strength by another 10%?"
"Actually, this war puppet doesn't have many magic spells. It can definitely add three more magic spells."
"By the way, I think this battle puppet suits your strength, but the left arm is weak. Do you want to add another point of Sky-Destroying Formation to your left arm?"
…
Two hours later, Zheng Changkong walked out of the inn with a ball of iron armor in his hand and a blank look on his face.
"Brother Zheng, money is something external to the body. If you don't have it, you can make it again. Fighting puppets is your foundation, right?" Han Muye who sent him out chuckled.
Zheng Changkong nodded numbly and climbed onto the carriage frame at the door.
"Well, the 110,000 yuan coins that Brother Zheng owes me must be paid back early. I will calculate the interest from tomorrow, okay?"
…
Zheng Changkong was a little absent-minded until he returned to the Zheng family mansion.
"Third brother, what's going on?"
"Are you worried about the gambling fight in three days?"
"Don't worry, even if you don't win that battle, He Yangsun can still win the battle on behalf of my Zheng family. I have already tried it. His fighting power is unrivaled among the first level."
Zheng Changtian, the head of the Zheng family, was in a good mood. He looked at Zheng Changkong and chuckled.
Zheng Changkong raised his head and looked at Zheng Changtian: "Brother, let's have a fight?"
A fight?
Zheng Changtian was slightly startled.
He is a fifth-level puppet master, and his combat power is so strong that he can easily crush Zheng Changkong.
There is a natural gap between Level 4 and Level 5.
"Okay, let's have a fight." Knowing that Zheng Changkong had no confidence in the betting battle in three days, he nodded and walked towards the square.
It was late at night and the square was empty.
Walking to the middle of the square, he turned around and said: "I will suppress the power and let you feel the limit of the fourth-level war puppet. Don't worry-"
Before he finished speaking, a blue and black war puppet had already moved and rushed towards him.
This speed was so fast that he could only raise his hand to wave his war puppet, then rolled back and fell to the ground in a panic.
"Peng——"
His war puppet was punched out and flew ten feet away.
"What the hell!" Zheng Changtian shouted, flew back, and waved his hand, and another war puppet stood in front of him.
Two war puppets!
No one said that a puppet master can only have one war puppet.
At this time, Zheng Changtian had a war puppet in front of him and behind him.
One is covered in black armor, with a cold glow from the spear in his hand. There are strange lines on the faceplate, and his arms are slender.
The other one was wearing a green robe, holding a jade sword in his hand, with a gray complexion, and the sound of chanting was trembling around him.
"boom--"
In front, an eight-foot war puppet stepped out.
The green and black battle armor, a long sword flashed with ghostly light, and every blow of the long sword knocked back the spear warrior.
"Lao San, since when did you become so good at fighting puppets?"
"You can even control a fifth-level war puppet?"
"How can a war puppet like you repel my level five war puppet?"
"Fuck, are you serious..."
…
The fight in the Zheng family mansion is unknown to outsiders.
He Yangsun returned to the inn and came to Han Muye.
"Master Han, the Zheng family invites me to participate in the gambling battle in three days."
Three days later, the Zheng family had a gambling war with the Cao family, a family in Yuyang City, another city.
It is a family gambling war, divided into three games.
One was a battle between lower-ranking juniors, another was a battle between strong men from the family, and the other was a battle between the strongest of both sides, the elder Zheng Sheng of the Zheng family, against Cao Tie, the head of the Cao family.
The head of the Cao family is also a level six puppet master.
Their bet is a wild mine.
Because the mineral vein is huge, the two sides have been fighting and not repairing it.
Is there a strong person coming this time who happens to be in charge of this gambling battle?
As long as three games are won and two are won, the ownership of this mine will be decided.
Han Muye nodded, and after He Yangsun walked out, he raised his hand and took out a pair of armor.
Flowing Flame Armor.
This armor is a standard armor and can be formed into formations.
"Why do I feel that this armor has the shadow of Tianhuang-level armor?" The golden bird flew on Han Muye's shoulder and spoke in a low voice.
】
"Indeed, this armor is clearly inherited from ancient times."
"I have seen an army with a similar shape to this armor." Hun Chaos also frowned and spoke softly.
Han Muye's eyes flashed with light, and he stretched out his hand to press on the armor.
"I want to see where the arm of Honghuang War Puppet is."
