"Oh my god, this is Dragon Blood Essence Gold, high-purity Hundred-Refined Mithril, and dual-attribute Lihuo Wind Copper ...."
In a secret chamber, Long Chen poured out all the forging materials he had scavenged from Longteng Trading Company, making Guo Ran's eyes bulge with shock.
Guo Ran was now a master artifact caster; ordinary materials were nothing to him, but many of the materials Long Chen poured out were the precious ones he had long dreamed of.
"Boss, have you really partnered with Longteng Trading Company? Why didn't Qian Duoduo notify me? Guo Ran said somewhat annoyedly.
"Qian Duoduo, you actually have contact with him?" Long Chen was startled and said.
Guo Ran was also startled and looked at Long Chen, saying, "Boss, didn't you find Qian Duoduo first, then came to find me?" Qian Duoduo holds a key position at Longteng Trading Company, so I thought..."
Previously, Long Chen said Longteng Trading Company was his private treasure trove. Guo Ran thought Longteng Trading Company, like Huayun Trading Company, had partnered with Long Chen, since with Qian Duoduo acting as a matchmaker, it was very easy.
Just over half a year ago, Qian Duoduo even represented Longteng Trading Company in the Moluo Star Domain to acquire resources held by major forces.
At that time, although the Moluo Star Domain had already begun sealing off, it was not strict. The strong figures from the outside world and the Moluo Star Domain could still seize some opportunities to enter and exit.
When Qian Duoduo came to Tianlong Divine Armor Academy to discuss business, he immediately recognized Guo Ran. The two embraced and cried bitterly, overwhelmed with emotion.
The news about Long Chen in Ming Hao Tian was also passed on to Guo Ran by Qian Duoduo, because Longteng Trading Company, where Qian Duoduo works, is a competitor to Huayun Trading Company, so naturally, they wouldn't miss any news about Huayun Trading Company.
At that time, Qian Duoduo asked Guo Ran how he was. In fact, Guo Ran was having the hardest time then, and he hadn't yet been listed among the Four Heroes.
It's funny to say. When Qian Duoduo arrived, he was surrounded by countless guards, while Guo Ran himself was so miserable that he felt embarrassed to show his face.
At that time, he said everything was fine at the Tianlong Divine Armor Academy. Qian Duoduo asked what he needed and wanted to use his authority to provide some convenience for Guo Ran.
Guo Ran put on a brave face, claiming everything was fine at the academy and lacking nothing, refusing Qian Duoduo's help.
Later, Qian Duoduo left, but she often sent letters to keep in touch. However, in the past two months, the Moluo Star Domain was completely sealed off, cutting off contact with the outside world.
Long Chen never expected that Qian Duoduo would be thriving at Longteng Trading Company, holding a high position and surrounded by guards.
Back then, Qian Duoduo only met Long Chen during the sect's trial, selling Long Chen the map. Because this guy was especially calculating, Long Chen put him in charge of the entire Dragon Blood Legion's finances.
Qian Duoduo was a natural businessman. Back then, Zheng Wenlong joked that trying to poach Qian Duoduo and keep him in the Dragon Blood Legion for fighting and killing was a bit of a waste.
"Why did this guy end up at Longteng Trading Company? With his shrewdness, he wouldn't be overlooked even if he went to Huayun Trading Company, right? Guo Ran asked in confusion.
"Hehe, boss, you don't know. I asked him the same thing back then. Guess what he said?
This guy said Longteng Trading Company's business was shady. He planned to wait for the right moment, make a big profit, and then leave. He was now saving money to rebuild the Dragon Blood Legion. Guo Ran said with a sinister smile.
Long Chen felt a warmth in his heart. Qian Duoduo was just an ordinary soldier in the Dragon Blood Legion, yet he always thought of the Dragonblood Legion. Having such a brother truly made his life worthwhile.
"Boss, with these materials, I can keep upgrading my armor. You know, my Dragon Demon Armor is an advanced type.
Currently, Rune has only completed one-tenth, and even I don't know how strong her potential is.
However, I haven't yet come up with many rune designs for my Demon Dragon Battle Armor, so I'm hesitant to start writing them.
Once this rune is inscribed, it can never be changed. I really miss Xia Chen now. If he were here, these problems would be solved. Guo Ran sighed.
Guo Ran considered himself skilled in forging artifacts as second only to anyone, but when it came to runes, he was not his strong suit. Although he had studied many inscription techniques and had high expertise in this area, he was definitely outstanding at the Tianlong Divine Armor Academy. Even the older generation of experts praised his inscription techniques highly.
But Guo Ran knew that compared to Xia Chen, he was still far behind. He could forge a complete Demon Dragon Battle Armor, but couldn't design complete runes.
The runes he was designing now only occupied a small part of the armor. He didn't dare to carve more runes because the current Dragon Armor was just a blank sheet of paper. He wanted to save it for future meetings with Xia Chen to study the armor together. Since he didn't have a complete layout, he only carved the most basic runes.
"It's fine. First, upgrade the basic runes you have carved, so your physical strength can be pushed to the limit. That way, you can hold off one side.
As for Xia Chen, I think it shouldn't be hard to find. Once things in the Moluo Star Domain are settled, we'll go find Xia Chen. The three of us brothers will join forces to accomplish something big." Long Chen said.
When Long Chen found Guo Ran, he thought of a possibility: that mysterious dragon clan powerhouse had once led them into the Immortal Realm, scattering everyone across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Guo Ran was skilled at forging artifacts and enjoyed crafting battle armor, so he was sent to the Moluo Star Domain.
If this wasn't a coincidence, then the others would inevitably be sent to their respective areas of expertise, and Xia Chen would be sent to the place most suitable for his growth. Meanwhile, in Ziyan Heaven, Long Chen happened to know that a certain place's rune techniques were unrivaled in the world.
"Really?" Guo Ran suddenly became excited.
"It should be pretty accurate. Don't overthink it for now—focus on improving your strength.
I came to the Moluo Star Domain for two purposes: one is to collect alchemy materials, and the other is to meet the powerful members of the Moluo clan and see what kind of relationship these guys have with Great Brahma. Long Chen said.
When Long Chen said he needed medicinal herbs, Guo Ran immediately sent someone to the warehouse to help him get all the stock. It had to be said, no one dared disobey his orders now, and he handled things with incredible efficiency. In just half a day, he had moved all the herbs Long Chen needed.
Long Chen saw the mountain of medicinal herbs and couldn't help but nod. This time he had really come to the right place. Now that he had arrived at the place of origin, these precious herbs were no longer so rare.
However, these rare herbs were still insufficient, but Long Chen was not worried, because this was only the stock of the Tianlong Divine Armor Academy alone. Other forces must have quite a few as well. As long as he bought everything they had, Long Chen estimated it would be enough to condense the Purple Que Star.
"Senior Brother Guo Ran, Xie Liuer and Leng Hui are outside seeking a meeting. Are you going to see them or not?"
Guo Ran collected all the materials Long Chen had given him. The two walked out of the secret chamber, and Tu Hu immediately stepped forward and said.
"Tell them to get lost. I get annoyed just seeing them." Guo Ran's face darkened as he said impatiently.
Tu Hu was about to turn around, but Long Chen shook his head and said, "Call them in. You can't avoid them. Some things can only be faced." Tu
Hu couldn't help but look at Guo Ran, who said helplessly, "Go ahead. I don't dare ignore the boss's words." Only
then did Tu Hu turn and leave. Long Chen patted Guo Ran on the shoulder and said, "If you're upset, when we meet later, you beat them up, and I'll back you up." "
Really?" Guo Ran was greatly pleased.
"Must!"
Only then did Guo Ran laugh heartily and walk out together with Long Chen.
