Upon hearing this, Dai Tianling immediately coughed lightly and rebuked him:
"Yun'er, don't be rude."
"Humph!"
Dai Yun'er gave a soft snort and turned her head away.
However, he glanced at Lin Jin out of the corner of his eye, looking him up and down, seemingly lost in thought.
"A bet is a bet. We have been waiting for three days. As the ruler of a country, Your Majesty would not renege on your promise, would you?"
Makino narrowed his eyes and finally spoke.
Upon hearing this, Dai Tianling sighed softly, a look of heartache flashing in her eyes.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, a long, crimson crystal box appeared in his hand.
Their eyes lit up.
But Dai Tianling didn't rush to hand it over, instead saying:
“Divine artifacts are precious.”
"To be honest, even my Star Luo Empire doesn't have many of these."
"The one we can offer right now isn't really a true divine artifact, but I think it should satisfy you, young friend Lin."
Both Mu Ye and Chen Xinjie immediately frowned.
His gaze turned colder.
"Does Your Excellency think we are easy to bully?"
Makino spoke coldly.
It can hardly be considered a true divine artifact, yet it shamelessly presented itself as one.
And she even brought it up herself.
He really didn't know where Dai Tianling got such a face.
Chen Xinjie narrowed his eyes as well.
He is a witness.
The things Dai Tianling handed over never ended up in his hands.
But he couldn't allow such a situation to occur.
Therefore, a sense of oppressive power subtly emerged from his body.
Grace did not say a word throughout the entire process.
Dai Tianling said:
"Please don't be in a hurry, you two."
"As I said, this should satisfy young friend Lin."
"I brought out this treasure with the intention of forming a good connection."
"Otherwise, I would rather give you a real divine artifact."
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye and Chen Xinjie exchanged a glance before falling silent.
indeed.
The bet was between Mu Ye and Dai Tianling.
But now, Dai Tianling can hand over the decision-making power to Lin Jin.
This means the reward will be given directly to Lin Jin, rather than strengthening Mu Ye or Chen Xinjie.
And Lin Jin...
Although it has great potential.
But it is still weak.
Even if the treasure can enhance Lin Jin now, it will take a long time before it transforms into true combat power.
and.
Judging from the current situation, Lin Jin's future network of connections will be quite terrifying.
In that case, offering Lin Jin a treasure that better suits him and forging a good relationship would be the best option.
Therefore, this treasure was indeed carefully selected by them.
It is the optimal choice after considering all factors.
"call."
Taking a deep breath, Dai Tianling opened the long red crystal box.
boom!
Blazing flames immediately erupted.
High temperatures permeated the air, and the temperature throughout the hall was rising rapidly.
Even many glass items are now twisting and showing signs of melting.
Inside the crimson crystal box, the treasure that Dai Tianling had mentioned, which wasn't exactly a divine artifact, was finally revealed to everyone.
It was a long strip of crimson metal engulfed in flames!
Lin Jin immediately recognized that this was not a rare metal that had never appeared in the records of the Blacksmith Association.
Its value is no less than that of the ethereal gold that Mu Chen has already given him.
However, the quantities of the two are not in the same league.
"The Vajra Bracelet, the national treasure of my Star Luo Kingdom, should not be a secret to your identities."
"The two flames are long and thin, and they were discovered together with the Vajra Bracelet."
"But over the years, no one in my Star Luo Empire has ever been able to make use of it."
"But simple tests show that its hardness is no less than that of a divine artifact, and may even surpass it."
"The flames that will not be extinguished even if thrown into the sea are truly miraculous."
"Coincidentally, young friend Lin's multicolored flame martial soul is also quite extraordinary."
"Young friend Lin, what do you think?"
Dai Tianling's gaze fell on Lin Jin.
After carefully observing the long strip of flaming metal, Mu Ye and Chen Xinjie realized that Dai Tianling was right.
All eyes then fell on Lin Jin.
Compared to Chen Xinjie, Mu Ye was more aware of the special nature of Lin Jin's Lotus Martial Soul.
Moreover, he was the only one present who knew that Lin Jin himself was a blacksmith!
He firmly believed that if Lin Jin couldn't forge and utilize this long strip of flaming metal, then probably no one else could.
then.
Neither Mu Ye nor Chen Xinjie spoke, leaving the decision to Lin Jin himself.
Dai Tianling and Enci also became somewhat uneasy at this moment.
Everyone can tell which is more important, a useless treasure or a usable artifact.
Therefore, no matter how eloquently they speak, it doesn't matter.
But in reality, they all boil down to one essential thing—
They want to resolve this bet at a lower cost.
The two of them naturally appeared nervous.
And under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Lin Jin gently shook his head, and then uttered two words amidst the somewhat unpleasant expressions on Dai Tianling and Enci's faces.
"not enough."
Chapter 85 Extorting the Emperor and a Demigod?
"not enough?"
Not only Dai Tianling and Enci, but also Mu Ye and Chen Xinjie were taken aback.
They had considered that Lin Jin might refuse.
But no one expected that after a long silence, Lin Jin would utter these two words.
This is also...
Too greedy.
"You little thief!"
Dai Yun'er immediately pointed at Lin Jin's nose and was about to scold him.
But Lin Jin glared at him and shut him down.
He frankly stated:
"As Your Majesty said, this long strip of flaming metal is indeed a treasure, but that is from the perspective of the blacksmith."
"I'm not a blacksmith, what use would I have for it?"
"Moreover, you yourself said that this cannot be considered a true divine artifact."
"And the bet is a magic weapon."
“I can accept this long strip of flaming metal as a substitute. After all, Uncle Zhen is a master craftsman, and I can give it to him.”
"That's not enough."
"If His Majesty could provide another hundred or two hundred tons of rare metals, that would be about right."
