Chapter 478: Tang Wulin's Conjecture

ad incredibly heavy. 。Each hammer blow caused the entire blacksmith, even him, to tremble slightly. The low rumbles echoed like a soul-conductor cannon firing in succession. 。The piece of forged spir...Although Shrek Academy requested that the Heavenly Dou City keep his heroic act a secret, Mo Wu still awarded Tang Wulin the title of honorary citizen of Heavenly Dou City. 。With this title matching badge, Tang Wulin could get a 20% discount on all his expenses in Tiandou City, including the auction. 。This is the highest honor in Heaven Dou City. Only those who have made outstanding contributions to the city can possess it, and it cannot be hereditary. 。Even as the city lord, Mo Wu didn't have these things. This time, he applied for two, one for Tang Wulin and the other for his daughter. 。This is what they deserve. 。"Uncle Liu, it's so cramped inside this black-level mecha. When you operate it, wouldn't it be difficult" Tang Wulin looked curiously at everything inside the mecha. 。Soul induction mecha control, is actually the whole person and mecha merging together. 。The mech pilot was situated in the center of the mech, directly in the chest area, secured within a humanoid cavity. 。This humanoid cavity is crafted from a special material and connects various parts of the mecha. 。When operating a mecha, in addition to some functions that require manual control and mind control, the most important thing is to rely on the actions of the mecha pilot himself. 。Whatever actions the mecha pilot performs inside their cockpit, the mecha will follow suit. 。Therefore, the physical requirements for a mecha pilot are very high. 。Of course, in a non-combat state, the mechs can also operate according to program. 。The higher-end the mecha, the lower the degree of program control and the higher the level of autonomy. 。Only then can mechs conduct more complex attacks. 。Liu An simply told Tang Wulin about some of the characteristics of his black mecha. 。For his own mecha, Liu An was incredibly fond of. 。In soul-conduit mecha, black-level mecha are already at the very top. Within the Federation, the number of black-level mecha pilots is extremely limited because the resources required to build a single black-level mecha are simply too vast. 。Meanwhile, the Federation only provides core formations to Black-Tier mechs. The specific materials need to be provided by the mech engineers themselves. 。But this mecha belongs to a mecha master. As long as they serve for a certain number of years, future mecha masters can take their meritorious mechas with them. 。The situation with the Purple-tier mechas is the same. 。So, for high-level mecha pilots, a mecha is their second life. 。To become an advanced mecha pilot, it takes more than just strength. It also requires money. 。Either one has a strong family foundation, or it comes from one's own salary, bonuses, and external funding. 。Here, many complex issues are involved. To put it simply, besides the soul guidance formation, every piece of metal on this mecha was purchased by Liu An himself. 。"Well, so to speak, we mecha masters may look glamorous, but the higher our rank, the harder life gets! We have to constantly strive for improvement and secure rankings in various mecha system competitions to earn prize money. Only then can we afford to maintain our mechas." 。The Federation's regulations for our elite mech pilots are truly inhumane, forcing us to work tirelessly and never allow ourselves even a moment of rest. 。I'm doing pretty well now, the Black Rank mecha is basically finished. 。My goal is to be able to replace all the mech parts with Spirit Forging grade in the future. I estimate that this is the highest level I can achieve in my lifetime. 。"I see, being a mecha master isn't easy either!" Tang Wulin suddenly realized.Liu An sighed and said, "That's why they say, you have to be tough yourself if you want to forge steel." 。The entry barrier for mech pilots is relatively low. As long as you meet the physical requirements, with prolonged training, there's a possibility of becoming a mech pilot. 。But wanting to move upwards, every step is like a ladder, very difficult. 。That's why everyone treasures it even more. 。" Uncle Liu, do you guys usually buy rare metals from our blacksmith association directly" Liu An nodded. "Yeah! We generally post missions, then pay and receive..." 。

relatively speaking, the blacksmith association's fees are quite reasonable.

But when it comes to the level above Lingdan, that's truly a case of many wanting but few getting. 。Master blacksmiths above level five are rare, and spirit-forged metal is in high demand, with prices skyrocketing. 。Even if we have enough money, it's not guaranteed that someone will take our assignment. 。The failure rate of spirit forging makes blacksmiths very cautious when accepting quests. 。And we, the ones who assign these tasks, can't possibly shoulder the full weight of their failure probability. 。This has made the spirit forging metal increasingly rare and in short supply. 。Tang Wulin said, “I see.” 。From Liu An, he learned about the current market for lingdan metal, and compared to lingdan metal, lingjin metal was even rarer. 。After all, this is something only a Level Six blacksmith can forge. Even if it's just Thousand Forging with Spirit, it could be upgraded to Spirit Forging in the future, and it could even be fused with more types of alloys. 。While Mech Masters' pursuit of rare metals may not be as fervent as that of Battle Armor Craftsmen, their demand far surpasses theirs. 。This is also a way to make money. 。"Uncle Liu, I'm a member of the blacksmithing association at the Slayers Academy. If you ever need any rare metals in the future, you can find me " 。Our prices may be a little lower there, and we can ensure on-time delivery. 。Tang Wulin smiled and said 。He didn't really think about how much money he could make from Liu An, but rather hoped to establish this connection. 。After all, by selling directly myself, even if I sell at a lower price, I don't need to go through other channels and save on channel costs. It's still possible to make more money. 。After learning from Zhunhua this time, Tang Wulin understood more and more how much a high-level blacksmith consumed. 。Moreover, forging one's own battle armor in the future will also require a vast amount of resources, all of which are built with money. 。The speed at which the seal is breaking is accelerating, and the demand for spiritual artifacts will inevitably become more and more high-end. Even if Master is good to me, in the future, if what is needed is something at the level of heaven and earth treasures, it will definitely require astronomical amounts of money. 。So, it's time to start making money!Tang Wulin's success rates for Lingdan and Rongdan are already quite high. Besides cultivation, it's time to start earning money. 。"That's a good idea!" As expected, Liu An’s eyes lit up when he heard his words. 。Tang Wulin didn't say that he forged it himself mainly because he was too young and couldn't easily inspire trust. 。And yet, the prestigious name of Shrek Academy has always been effective, a good way to create hype and get things done. 。The mecha's flight speed was extremely fast. Liu An kept flying Tang Wulin all the way to the outskirts of Shrek City before setting him down. 。As a Tiandou City mecha master, he was forbidden to cross the border and enter the Shrek City area. 。That is taboo. 。After exchanging contact information, Liu An then controlled his mecha to fly away. 。Tang Wulin, rarely getting a chance to let loose, directly summoned a soul guide taxi. Instead of returning to the academy, he went straight to the Shrek City branch of the Tang Sect headquarters. 。He still had two lingering spirits, he traded for them with contribution points after which he returned to the academy. 。Although this trip to the Heavenly Battle City was fraught with danger, his gains were considerable. 。Tang Wulin's mind already had a clearer path for his development. 。He is now an honorary citizen of Tiandou City and can get a 20% discount on any purchases in Tiandou City. 。Trading in Tian Dou City is done in Federation Currency. 。Therefore, earning federal currency would be even more advantageous for him. 。He exchanges more for forging materials with his companions, and sells the surplus after forging them. 。Liu An already has this line, he is preparing to start trying, and then through forging to make money. 。When you need spirit items in the future, go to Tiandou City to purchase them. With the advantages of being a disciple and an honorary citizen, you should be able to acquire what you want at a relatively low cost. 。Three more requests for recommendations! ~^~() 420/2696323 。 Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!e emerald demon bird on Gu Yue's shoulder, he was completely sure that this wasn't a dream. 。They are truly within this Xingdou Great Forest. 。In the distance, suddenly, Tang Wulin felt a sense of d...
