"Let's find someone to collect his body..."
After saying that, he walked down the stairs silently.
His footsteps were heavy as if they were filled with lead.
The others also looked confused.
They obviously haven't figured out what happened yet.
But when they turned around, Maria and the others had disappeared...
……
It was several days later when Maria and others saw Li Zhenfang again.
He sat quietly in the chair, seemingly not at all sad about the death of his child.
But his slightly empty eyes and graying hair still revealed his thoughts.
He seemed to have suddenly aged in the past few days.
"You two are here."
Seeing Maria appear, Li Zhenfang temporarily put down the work in his hands, raised his head, and looked at her with a forced smile.
"What happened a few days ago... really made you two laugh."
He spoke, his words sounding a little weak.
The deep eye sockets look tired.
But Maria just lowered her eyes a few times, silently passed over the matter, and shook her head slightly.
"What's the matter with you looking for us?"
"It happened a few days ago."
Li Zhenfang took a deep breath and tried his best not to think about his children. Instead, he gritted his teeth and looked at Maria in front of him.
"We've learned from the remaining remnants of the Shanhai faction that they've reached an agreement with a certain giant beast. In a few days, they'll lure the beast here!"
“By then, the entire Nanjiang City will be transformed into a battlefield for giant beasts!”
"I have something I would like to ask you two..."
~~~~~
301
Chapter 301 I have a solution.
"I hope you two can lend me a hand..."
Li Zhenfang spoke, his voice somewhat solemn.
He knew that it was unreasonable to make a request to Maria and others who were just passing by at this time. After all, Maria and the others were not his subordinates and there was no need for them to do anything for him.
But as a city lord and the leader of the entire Nanjiang City, even though he knew the possibility was a little small, he had to give it a try.
He needs the strength of Maria and others...
The beast is so terrifying now that, at his level, there is no need to use any extra words to describe it.
That terrifying and majestic body is enough to destroy anyone who tries to disrespect it.
The surging and terrifying power is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
He no longer had time to grieve for his children.
He is not only a father, but also the lord who is responsible for protecting the entire city... He cannot let the entire city be harmed because of one person!
Especially after knowing that the Shanhai people had infiltrated the city and were ready to guide the giant beast, he also realized that he didn't have much time left.
He must counterattack immediately!
"So... you're going to ask us to help deal with the behemoth?"
Hearing the man's words, Sui showed a half-smile and looked at Maria beside him with a teasing look.
You said humans could resist giant beasts, but in the end, didn't they still have to look for cutting-edge combat power?
But... fighting another giant beast? I don't mind.
It mainly depends on whether Maria is willing to accept such an arrangement...
Maria's expression remained cold despite this situation.
After hearing what the man said, Li Zhenfang shook his head slightly.
"If you two are willing to stay and fight the enemy together, I will naturally be grateful, but I also understand that you two are not from my city, and I cannot force you to do anything. I just want to make a deal with you..."
He took a deep breath and looked at the man beside him.
"I heard that a famous ironworker has recently appeared in the city... If nothing goes wrong, it's you, right?"
As the city lord, Li Zhenfang naturally had a lot of spies. He had also heard a little about the talented iron forger who had recently become famous in the city...
If that were all, he wouldn't have come looking for the other person specifically.
but……
"I heard from others that you have your own way of forging fine iron...quickly and effectively, is that correct?"
"Just playing around for fun."
When she heard that Li Zhenfang was not asking her and others to stay to protect the city, she blinked curiously, and when faced with the questions raised by the other party, her face was full of confusion.
In her opinion, the entire Nanjiang City is now ridiculously fragile, and the dozens of meters long city walls are just crooked defenses made of piled stones.
As long as she wants, she can easily destroy it with just a wave of her hand!
Even if she tried to reinforce such a city wall, it would not be able to withstand the attack of the giant beast.
In this situation, does Li Zhenfang have any choice?
Still not asking for her and Maria's help?
"..."
"To be honest, I'm a little confused as to whether you two are joking or serious."
Li Zhenfang took a deep breath and looked up again.
"However, this matter concerns the people of Nanjiang City. I hope you can tell me the truth..."
Li Zhenfang raised his head and looked at Sui who was standing beside him.
According to the information he obtained, Sui had worked as a blacksmith in the city several times during this period. His superb skills and dazzling forging techniques had made many old masters in the city feel ashamed.
The forged iron blocks are of even better quality... If she is willing to help, the progress of Nanjiang City's defensive fortifications will be greatly improved!
By then, they will be more confident when facing the behemoth!
"We need to forge a large amount of high-quality refined iron and various precision instruments... Master Sui, how far can you go? How much can you produce in a day?"
Li Zhenfang did not force Sui to do anything for them, but turned around and asked Sui to what extent he was willing to do it.
He knew that in the face of disaster, everyone's first reaction was to protect themselves... This was understandable, and he couldn't force anything.
But... the current situation is indeed urgent, and he has to take action himself and try to get the other party to help.
"As for the reward, I dare not say how much it will be, but if we can survive this crisis, if you want all of our Li family's savings, then I will certainly offer it to you with both hands. I only hope... that you can help..."
Li Zhenfang gritted his teeth and made his promise.
Maria and Sui didn't know if he would actually go that far when he mentioned handing over all his wealth, but for the two of them, so-called wealth wasn't that important...
Li Zhenfang has already made his attitude clear.
"So... you plan to fight the behemoth head-on?"
Sui tilted his head, sitting in his original position, showing a bit of curiosity.
She looked carefully at Li Zhenfang in front of her, then closed her eyes and carefully felt the atmosphere of the entire Nanjiang City.
After a moment, she shook her head helplessly.
"You have no chance of winning."
"This kind of thing...you have to try it to know."
Li Zhenfang smiled bitterly.
He also knew how fantastic his idea was, but at this point, he had no other choice.
Either be prepared and face the challenges that lie ahead, or close your eyes and wait for despair to descend...
But obviously, Li Zhenfang did not intend to sit and wait for death.
"Besides, this is just the worst-case scenario."
He let out another long breath and looked at Sui in front of him again, "Master Sui, you can do it..."
"How much do you want?"
She waved her little hand and spoke directly.
This heroic tone even confused Li Zhenfang, who had been mentally preparing himself.
But Sui just smiled and looked at the man in front of him.
The pupils slowly stood up, emitting an ominous golden-red light.
How arrogant...
It can even be said that his arrogance has no limits.
A tiny human actually tried to go to war with these giant beasts?
Even the weakest behemoth's size and capabilities far surpass those of those so-called masters of Originium skills!
She felt that there were only a hundred people in the entire Nanjiang City who had some ability in Originium. But even if all these people were added together, could they withstand her attack?
I guess it's unlikely.
Sui couldn't even figure out whether Li Zhenfang in front of him was crazy, which was why he did such a thing.
but……
What does it matter?
"If you truly wish to confront the behemoth head-on, I'm willing to lend a hand... I'll build as many as you want, and whatever level you desire, I'll build it for you!"
He grinned and wiggled his fingers slightly.
The whole room began to tremble slightly because of this. The lacquered wood that had been processed began to grow green branches. The landscapes hanging on the wall gradually came into reality. The original refined steel turned into red molten iron, constantly changing with the shaking of the girl's fingers.
I started to get interested at the age of 18.
But she was not interested in whether these people could really defeat the behemoth, but she wanted to see to what extent the people Maria mentioned could achieve.
However, this battle is indeed unfair to humans - although Sui believes that there is no such thing as fairness or unfairness in battles, think about it, as the absolutely weaker party, without even the most basic preparations, the probability of failure will be one thousand percent!
To this end, she doesn't mind adding a little variation.
She won't take the initiative, but she will help others indirectly...
With another wave of her hand, everything around her returned to normal under the girl's control. The only difference was that the man's sword hung up for decoration was now emitting bursts of cold light!
Everything that just happened was real! It wasn't an illusion!
Li Zhenfang widened his eyes...
……
After realizing the year-old's ability, Li Zhenfang almost immediately stopped all the work at hand and took the girl directly to the designated place.
According to the original plan, even if all the blacksmiths in the city were gathered, it would take nearly a month to complete the forging of iron ore into finished products... The construction of a defense against behemoths is a huge project in itself. Moreover, the reason why Nanjiang City was built here is because there are indeed no traces of behemoths here.
After all, no one cared about the construction of this project at the beginning.
No one expected that the accident would happen so suddenly.
But fortunately, at this time, Sui chose to take action.
Faced with the mountain of ore, she simply waved her hand and melted it instantly.
