Chapter 1062: New WeaponChristopher was part of the Karian Blacksmith Union, in the top one hundred halls of fame for all blacksmiths in Karian. A further well-developed world compared to the Earth, which was still new to the Game. Ancient Rank might be a high ranking in this Ancient Rank Tower, but he had made a lot of equipment for a higher rank than Ying. He would not use his materials in the collection for the new S Rank Adventurer he did not know.        

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow. Dragon Destroyer was a Grade A weapon, so if he wanted to make a new one, he wanted the better one. He did not want to wait and pay for the same grade battle-ax. ”I want a better weapon than my previous one if I have to make a new one.”    

”Then I canʼt help you with your request unless you bring me the materials yourself.” Christopher shrugged and did not really care about his picky customer.    

Gortham and Eril turned toward Tang Shaoyang, waiting for his response. The Guild Master also had his own collection to make Grade S Equipment, but again, he did not want to use his collection for Tang Shaoyang. The best he could do was to introduce the young man to the reliable blacksmith in the guild.    

After thinking for a while, Tang Shaoyang took out his Titan Blade, the Myth Grade weapon. He pushed the blade toward the blacksmith. ”Can you reshape the blade into a battle-ax? That should not be hard, right?”    

Christopher took the blade, curious about how good the broadsword was. He was surprised when he found out that the blade in his hand was a Myth Grade Artifact. ”You already have a better weapon. Why do you want a new one? Ah, you donʼt want the blade but a battle-ax?”    

”Yeah.” Tang Shaoyang nodded. ”I have been using a battle-ax far too long, and itʼs my comfort weapon.”    

”Unfortunately, I canʼt reshape this one. If I try to do it, it will downgrade the artifact instead. Thereʼs a high chance that it will downgrade to Grade S, two grades down. I am not capable of creating a Myth Rank Artifact.” Christoper shook his head as he handed back the Titan Blade.    

Tang Shaoyang scratched his head and put the Titan Blade back into the inventory. Then he took out the broken Dragon Destroyer. ”Then just repair this one. I donʼt want to wait for too long to make the same Grade A battle-ax.”    

Christopher snatched the broken weapon from Tang Shaoyangʼs hand. That was right; he took the broken weapon before Tang Shaoyang handed it over. He put the blade ax on the table and started to observe the shaft. The bulky man even sniffed at the broken part, caressing it, and looked at it closely. After a moment, his eyes widened in surprise.    

”Someone modified the battle-ax for you?” Christopher looked at Tang Shaoyang, which was later nodded in response. ”You use dragonʼs teeth and bone to make the shaft?” He asked for a confirmation which was responded to with another nod.    

”Which amateur uses such precious materials and yet still canʼt pull out its fullest potential? This is…..” Christopherʼs expression cringed in regret. ”I can make you a new battle-ax with this. I am also confident to make a Grade S Artifact with this, and Thereʼs a chance that I can make it to an Epic Grade, around five percent.”    

”That would be the best. Use whatever you can use to make a new battle-ax, and if possible, I want a similar one with that. Not just the shape but also the weight…. No, I want a heavier battle-ax.” Tang Shaoyang was glad if the broken Dragon Destroyer could be used to make a new battle-ax. He did not need to wait to return to repair the battle-ax.    

”I can comply with your request, but we havenʼt reached a deal yet.” Christopher raised his hand. ”We havenʼt talked about the price, and I also need more materials to re-create the battle-ax. I am not doing this for free just because the Guild Master asks me to help you.”    

”How much?” Tang Shaoyang asked for the price. As long as it was within the budget, he was willing to pay even a hundred million for an Epic Rank weapon.      

”Thereʼs no need to hurry. There are a lot of things I want to ask you to decide what materials I need to add. We need to have a long conversation.” Christopher gestured to Tang Shaoyang to sit. ”For my service, you need to pay ten mil, but since you are introduced by Old Garth, I will cut it in half. Five million, and you have to pay it upfront.”    

Tang Shaoyang did not negotiate the price as he offered his hand. It was clear what his response was. ʼGive me your hand, and I will pay you immediately.ʼ    

”I like a rich and direct customer like you. People are supposed not to be stingy with their weapons.” Christopher reached the hand, and the notification that he had received five million Game Coins rang in his head.    

”Next, we discuss the materials we need to re-create the battle-ax, and I need to know your battle style to decide on the materials. Do you often channel your mana into your weapon? Or do you just swing it with your raw strength? What….”    

Christopher asked what element he used often. If it was lightning, he had a material that was suitable for the lightning element and so for the other elements too. If he used multiple elements, he also had the material for that scenario.    

Tang Shaoyang was not expecting creating a new weapon was this complicated. The conversation lasted for half an hour; only then was Christopher satisfied with the data. ”I have the right idea for materials that I need to use, and you still have to pay for the materials yourself.”    

The bulky man waved his hand when Tang Shaoyang offered his hand once more. ”You donʼt need to pay for the materials now. I still need to calculate the price. You pay for the materials after I finish your new battle-ax.”    

”Alright.” Tang Shaoyang hoped that two hundred million was enough to pay for the material. ”How long will it take?”    

”A month at the latest and a week at the fastest. I will tell Eril once I finish it, so thereʼs no need to worry about it. Ah, my name is Christopher, and I have a feeling that we will often meet in the future.” The bulky man smiled at Tang Shaoyang.
