In an office high up in the building.
Lou Gao asked, "Young Master, why are you here today?"
Quan Yi rarely comes to his place except to assign tasks and inspect finished products.
You know, it's only been a short while since Quan Yi assigned the task, so there's no reason to check his progress now.
Lou Gao looked a little puzzled.
Quan Yi sat on the sofa and said to Lou Gao with a serious expression: "Master Lou should have forged armor before. I wonder if your skills are still there?"
"armor?"
Lou Gao was completely confused at this moment, and continued to ask: "Young Master, do you want me to make armor?"
Quan Yi nodded affirmatively: "That's right!"
Lou Gao asked hurriedly: "What about the production line? My research is just getting started now."
Quan raised his hand and said, "The production line can wait, things here are more urgent. Also, I have something I want you to see.
When you see it, you’ll understand why I do it.”
Then, under Lou Gao's puzzled gaze, Quan Yi took out a tiny piece of metal the size of a palm from the Heart of the Scorching Sun.
The moment Lou Gao saw the metal, he stood up suddenly and walked quickly towards Quan Yi.
At this moment, his breathing became rapid and his eyes were fixed on the metal in Quan Yi's palm.
It was a piece of black metal that emitted a red fluorescent light.
Based on his eyesight, he found that it was tungsten steel.
However, what puzzled him was that the surface of the tungsten steel actually emitted red fluorescence, and also emitted a strange soul power fluctuation.
This strange feeling made Lou Gao realize the specialness of this metal.
Chapter 249: Commissioned to Forge Soul Guide Armor
"Can I touch it?"
Lou Gao asked carefully.
Quanyi stretched out his hand and handed the tungsten steel in his hand to Lou Gao.
Lou Gao picked up the small piece of tungsten steel from Quan Yi's hand, but in a flash, he failed to hold it.
"Hey, it's so heavy!"
The tungsten steel that is half the size of a palm actually weighs more than kilograms.
This made Lou Gao even more curious.
He stretched out his hands, took the strange tungsten steel from Quan Yi's hands, and looked at it carefully.
Tough, heavy, pure.
Lou Gao had never seen such a strange metal before, especially the special soul power fluctuations inside the metal, which made Lou Gao feel extremely familiar.
He channeled the soul power in his body into the metal.
The next moment, the metal glowed red and emitted a scorching breath.
"What, what kind of metal is this?" Lou Gao asked in surprise.
Quan Yi smiled and replied: "Master Lou, isn't it very clear? This is tungsten steel. However, it was forged by me personally."
"Young master can also forge iron. No, that's not right. This piece of metal is tungsten steel?" Countless doubts flashed through Lou Gao's mind.
Quan smiled and said, "Master Lou, don't panic. Sit down first. I will explain everything."
Then, Quan Yi informed Lou Gao of the information about soul guide metal.
After finishing speaking, Lou Gao pondered for a long time.
“I didn’t expect that inputting soul power into the metal during forging would produce such strange changes.
Soul guide metal can definitely change the entire blacksmith industry and even the existence of the entire soul master world.
I am here to thank the young master for telling me this information."
As he said this, Lou Gao stood up and was about to bow to Quan.
Seeing this, Quan Yi hurriedly grabbed Lou Gao's shoulders and stopped him from bending over.
"Since you have joined the Quan family, you will be a family from now on. There is no need to make such a gesture."
Quan Yi then presented his idea to Lou Gao.
“Master Lou, regarding soul guide metal, I would like to ask Master Lou to make a complete set of soul guide armor for me.
I have prepared the materials, about 100,000 kilograms of various soul guide metals, for you to use.
If you need anything else later, I can provide other soul guide metals."
“Soul guide armor! One hundred thousand kilograms!” Beads of sweat began to appear on Lou Gao’s forehead. He said in a slightly bitter tone: “Young Master is really good at making things difficult for an old man like me.”
Lou Gao's complaints were within Quan Yi's expectations. If forging had not been too difficult, he would not have come to Lou Gao.
The forging design of the armor involves countless complex techniques and processes, plus it involves soul-guided metals.
If one wants to realize its true potential, the forger must possess soul power.
On this point, Blacksmith Yuan does not meet the requirements.
Only a tall building can truly satisfy Quan Yi's requirements.
Quan Yi looked at Lou Gao quietly, but his expression and eyes were full of a hint of provocation. Then, Quan Yi sighed and said, "Alas, I thought a commission of this level would not be a big deal for Master Lou.
Since Master Lou is in such a dilemma, I won’t bother you any more.”
Having said that, Quan stood up and was about to leave.
When Lou Gao heard Quan Yi's provocative words, veins on his forehead suddenly bulged.
Even though he knew that this was Quan Yi's way of provoking him, Lou Gao still got carried away.
He slammed the table and shouted, "I'll do it!"
Quan Yi raised a triumphant smile and said, "Master Lou, if you feel that this task is too difficult, you can simply refuse it. We will not force others to bear an unbearable burden."
Faced with the provocation, the master craftsman Lou Gao decided to fight back.
He said loudly: "In the entire Douluo Continent, there are only five blacksmiths who can complete this commission, and I am one of them.
If I can’t do it, it’s a waste of time to find someone else.”
Lou Gao's tone was full of confidence and pride as a contemporary master craftsman.
"So, Master Lou is going to take on this commission?" Quan Yi asked.
"Of course! There's no way I'd give up on such a challenging commission."
Lou Gao's eyes lit up with an astonishing light.
"Then I'll leave it to Master Lou."
Quan Yi stood up and bowed solemnly to show his respect.
After officially taking on the task, Lou Gao began to ask Quan Yi about the specific details.
"Young Master, if you have specific requests, you can tell us one by one."
In response, Quan Yi unceremoniously told Lou Gao all the ideas in his mind.
First of all, as a soul guide armor, the most important thing is the soul guide effect.
With the soul-guiding metal that has the effect of amplifying flames, Quan Yi can use his own fire-attribute soul power to cast flames even without summoning his martial soul.
Therefore, the armor must take this into account.
Secondly, Quan Yi hopes to be equipped with an additional shield and spear.
As a weapon of attack and defense.
Furthermore, Quan Yi hopes that the soul guide armor can be used in conjunction with his gauntlet martial soul.
Quan Yi can only unleash his strongest flame when wearing the Fiery Sun Gauntlets.
Therefore, the soul guide armor must be connected to his scorching sun gauntlets.
Finally, Quan Yi hopes that the soul guide armor can increase the overall weight of the armor without affecting its movement.
The reason for doing this is not only to add defensive power to the armor, but also to use the soul guide armor as a weight-bearing training prop.
After the breakthrough, Quan Yi's previous weights could no longer stimulate his body.
The weight required to break through to the Soul Emperor level was slowly increased to 15,000 kilograms under Quan Yi's training.
However, when the weight is increased to this extent, the volume of the load is close to its limit, and increasing it further will affect Quan Yi's movements.
However, after Quan Yi's 72 consecutive attacks, the density of the soul guide metal reached a terrifying level, which was just right for creating weights.
After hearing Quan Yi's many requests, Lou Gao's enthusiasm, which had finally risen, was almost extinguished again.
However, after hearing Quan Yi's idea, Lou Gao formed a vague image in his mind.
That was Lou Gao’s imagination of the soul guide armor.
Although its image was too blurry at the moment, just the blurry shadow was enough to make Lou Gao's blood boil.
If he could really turn the imaginary image in his mind into reality, it would be the greatest work of his blacksmithing career.
"I already know what the young master wants. Leave the rest to me. I will hand over a work that will satisfy the young master."
Then, Lou Gao left Quan Yi and walked to his workbench, picked up the drawings and pen and ink, and frantically sketched out the scene in his mind.
Quan Yi stood quietly behind Lou Gao and took a look at the picture on the drawing.
At just one glance, Quan Yi was deeply attracted by the lines on the drawing.
Looking through the blueprint, Quan Yi seemed to smell a pungent smell of blood and rust. This was a peerless weapon from an ancient battlefield.
Its existence is for fighting and killing.
After taking a look at it, Quan Yi was deeply attracted by the drawing.
At the same time, he was also looking forward to the birth of the soul guide armor.
After this day, Lou Gao completely put down all the work in his hands and devoted himself to the manufacturing process of soul guide armor.
During this period, Quan Yi, as the owner of the armor, was often dragged in to test various physical data.
During this process, Quan Yi was also influenced by Lou Gao's passion to create perfect works.
His height, weight, strength, body shape, martial spirit, soul power, and even the existence of external soul bones were all revealed to Lou Gao without reservation.
Chapter 250 Returning to Hometown
Not only that, Quan Yi also invested all the research and development funds accumulated in the past few years into soul guide armor.
This research and development funding is huge, amounting to tens of millions of gold soul coins.
When Quan Yi slapped the money on Lou Gao's desk, Lou Gao immediately said that he had never fought such a rich war.
With such a huge capital investment, Lou Gao simply waved his hand and bought all the rare metals accumulated by the Blacksmith Association in Gengxin City.
Not only that, he specifically entrusted his disciples to keep an eye out for various rare metals sold at the Gengxin City auction house.
Whether it's deep-sea sunken silver or cold-heart iron essence, as long as he needs it, he can buy it without asking the price.
At this point, countless rare metals were continuously transported from Gengxin City to Lou Gao's forging room, which provided Lou Gao with various experimental data.
Moreover, due to the improvement of the structure of the steam engine by Lou Gao before, the efficiency of the steam forging hammer was more than doubled.
With the help of the steam engine, research on building heights was developing at an astonishing speed.
However, it would take him some time to build the perfect armor in his mind.
After Lou Gao collected information about Quan Yi, he was completely immersed in his own research.
However, under Quan Yi's strong request, Lou Gao ensured a healthy work and rest schedule.
But other than that, he spent the rest of his time completely immersed in the forging room and didn't go anywhere else.
