Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The call alert on the screen was ringing. Wang Teng hesitated. He felt that the other party was a little strange. The mystery and dignity behind a heaven-stage martial warrior disappeared in an instant, and he was rather… flippant!
Was he being delusional?
Or was the other party putting up a pretense?
Wang Teng hesitated, but he still decided to click “Accept.”
A head immediately appeared on the screen. It was almost touching the screen like the other party was trying to see Wang Teng’s face clearly.
But he was disappointed as Wang Teng’s face was blocked by light. He couldn’t see his face at all.
Wang Teng was surprised by the appearance of the other party. The heaven-stage martial warrior was a robot!
It had a mechanical head and blue electronic eyes. It didn’t look like a human at all. Wang Teng could even see his mechanical body when it stepped back.
“Mecha race!” Round Ball said in surprise, “He’s from the mecha race!”
“Mecha race! Is there such a race? Aren’t robots created by humans?” Wang Teng was curious.
“No, they’re not the same. Mechas aren’t robots. The mecha race is a very strange lifeform. They do not have real bodies and are somewhat similar to intelligent lifeforms like me. However, they were born like this, whereas I evolved into what I am today,” Round Ball explained seriously.
“Then what about their mechanical bodies?” Wang Teng asked.
“Mecha lifeforms are born from machinery. They can attach themselves to mechanical bodies. They are very powerful and are closely connected with the bodies. Their relationship is like the relationship between human souls and human bodies.”
“The universe is so huge and full of surprises. It’s amazing!” Wang Teng exclaimed.
“You will slowly be exposed to these things in the future.” Round Ball smiled. “Generally, members of the mecha race are rare, and they wouldn’t have any activities in a human city. It’s surprising for a mecha to appear now.”
“Is there a problem if I trade with him?” Wang Teng asked.
“Nope. The mecha race is recognized, and there are many strong members. The spacecraft that they build are extremely sought after by powerful people in the universe.”
Wang Teng nodded.
At this time, a sound came from the screen.
“How insincere. You are not showing your face.” The robot pouted. The voice it made was no different from a human, without the slightest mechanical tone, which seemed a little out of place.
“I’m sorry. My identity is a bit sensitive and not suitable to be disclosed at the moment,” Wang Teng offered an explanation.
The mecha heaven-stage martial warrior’s blue electronic eyes turned. “It’s fine. As long as you can forge the things I want.”
When it came to business, he became serious and was no longer chirpy.
“What do you want? Show me.”
“This is it.” The mecha heaven-stage martial warrior took out a small black box.
“What is this?” Wang Teng frowned.
It was clearly not a conventional weapon, and the difficulty wouldn’t be low.
“This is the Thousand Armaments Vessel, which is created by members of the mecha race like me. It is probably at the fifth-rank grandmaster level. I need you to forge this for me,” the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior said.
“Okay.” Wang Teng nodded.
“Are you not going to confirm if you can forge this?” the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior asked in surprise.
“There’s no need to. As long as it is a grandmaster-level weapon, I can forge it,” Wang Teng replied calmly.
“Oh, such confidence!” The mecha heaven-stage martial warrior looked at Wang Teng with great interest.
“If I forge this, you have to promise me one thing.”
“No problem. These details can be written in the spiritual contract. Of course, your conditions must comply with the principle of equivalence. If you are asking me to die, I won’t do it.”
“Don’t worry. I know that.” Wang Teng nodded.
“Very well. I shall wait for you tomorrow at the Secondary Career Alliance to sign the spiritual contract,” the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior said.
After speaking, both of them went offline.
Wang Teng opened his eyes in the real world and heard Round Ball’s voice. “Wang Teng, you must be careful working with the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior. How do I put it? The mecha race is quite mysterious, especially things that are created by them. They are rarely circulated around the world. You might not know what secrets lie in that small black box. Be careful.”
“Oh, there are things like that?” Wang Teng frowned, “Looks like it’s quite troublesome!”
“Let’s see what the contents of the spiritual contract will be tomorrow. If it is written clearly in the spiritual contract, then there shouldn’t be too much of a problem,” Round Ball said.
“You mean there will be a clause that states that I should hide the secrets of the small black box in the spiritual contract?” Wang Teng asked.
“Yes.”
Wang Teng nodded, his eyes flickering. After pondering for a while, he didn’t say anything else and decided to wait until the next day to see what would happen.
He then took out the Lightning Slap. After forging the weapon, he had never taken a look at it. Back then, he felt that it was a bit different, but he didn’t focus on it.
Now that he had some time, he took it out to study it.
It was a treasure that he spent so much effort forging.
“Huh?” Just as he was taking it out, Round Ball, who was about to leave, let out a light snort.
It was a grandmaster blacksmith, and not just any ordinary grandmaster. With just one look, he could see something from it.
“Did you find anything?” Wang Teng asked.
Round Ball didn’t rush to answer and asked, “You forged this?”
“That’s right. It’s my work for the grandmaster assessment.”
“I remember you had a brick. Did you put it back into the furnace?” Round Ball said with a strange expression.
“Cough. That’s not the point.” Wang Teng cleared his throat. “This is supposed to be a seal, but it looks a little unconventional.”
Silence.
What do you mean by unconventional!
Do you think I’m blind?
Round Ball rolled its eyes at Wang Teng. “Did you add something to that brick? Why do I sense a trace of heavenly might?”
“You could sense that?” Wang Teng was surprised, but he didn’t hide it. “I added a bit of calamity lightning, and the Lightning Slap absorbed it.”
“No wonder!” Round Ball was taken aback. There was a look of surprise on its face. “You’re too bold. You actually dared to add calamity lightning to your weapon and were not afraid of being struck by it.”
“With me around, how could it possibly strike me?” Wang Teng replied calmly.
“You’re so arrogant… That’s not right. Where did you get the calamity lightning?” Round Ball suddenly reacted and asked again.
“I got it during the calamity.” Wang Teng started bluffing without blinking his eyes.
“Oh my god! You’re good!” Round Ball was really impressed by Wang Teng. He actually dared to use the calamity lightning.
Real iron head!
“The question is how did you do it? You actually managed to get calamity lightning.” Round Ball was full of curiosity and questions.
“You want to know?” Wang Teng snickered as he saw Round Ball’s eyes filled with anticipation. “It’s a secret!”
“F**k!” Round Ball pointed a middle finger at him.
Wang Teng didn’t care. Both of them surrounded the Lightning Slap and began studying it.
“The Lightning Slap is not just at the fourth-rank grandmaster level. I feel that it has room to grow,” Round Ball stared at it for a long time and said as it rubbed its chin.
“I think so too. As long as it keeps absorbing calamity lightning, there should be an unexpected surprise for us.” Wang Teng nodded.
As he spoke, he sent a trace of lightning Force into the Lightning Slap, and the lightning patterns on its surface started glowing brightly. Countless lightning bolts flickered on its surface.
If you looked closely, you would realize that there were traces of a different type of lightning. They were several times more terrifying than ordinary lightning.
“Calamity lightning is really exceptional. I didn’t think that an unintentional act would result in such a wonderful weapon.” Round Ball exclaimed.
Wang Teng smiled and stopped testing the Lightning Slap. After all, he was in Fan Taining’s house. If he was careless, the entire house would be wrecked. Keeping the Lightning Slap, he entered the virtual universe once again to train.
This time, he entered as an unregistered resident and appeared directly in the wilderness. He then began a silent journey of hunting and collecting attributes.
It was yet another busy night.
…
After a night of silence and waking up, Wang Teng finished his breakfast and headed to the Secondary Career Alliance with Fan Taining.
He was now a grandmaster of the Secondary Career Alliance and had a personal waiting room. He only needed to wait for the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior to arrive.
Fan Taining was envious of this. This was the status symbol of a grandmaster.
It was a realistic world. If you had the status and influence, you would stand out and everyone would respect you.
Wang Teng waited quietly in the waiting room and changed his appearance using his Morph talent. Before signing the spiritual contract, he would not let the mecha heaven-stage martial warrior see his true face.
As the Morph talent could also change one’s physical body, it was considered a physical deformation ability. Even if others could tell that he had changed his appearance, they would not be able to tell what he really looked like.
It wasn’t like other illusion techniques. Once those were dispelled, his real appearance would be revealed. Such techniques only added a layer of ‘veil.’
After waiting for a while, the other party arrived at the waiting room as agreed.
The mecha heaven-stage martial warrior was wrapped in a gray robe and wore a metal mask so that people couldn’t see his face.
Wang Teng was curious. He showed himself so generously the previous night. Why was he acting so mysterious today?
Wasn’t it all for nothing?
The mecha heaven-stage martial warrior entered the waiting room and took off his hood and mask, revealing his mechanical face. “I’m sorry. I did this to avoid some trouble.”
“Looks like you and I are similar.” Wang Teng smiled and made a gesture of invitation. “Please be seated.”
“Everyone has their own secrets.” The mecha squinted his eyes at Wang Teng.
Wang Teng was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This mecha heaven-stage martial warrior didn’t have the aura of a heaven-stage warrior. He felt more like a young man.
