Chapter 151: My Profession Panel Is Somehow in an Anime Style? Chapter 64

'Still, I need to get a spatial equipment on the agenda as soon as possible.'

Even if Li Ang really does produce heavy firearms later, he can't possibly carry them around on his back all day, so his need for spatial equipment grows ever more urgent.

Thinking of this, he immediately opened the local trading website and began searching.

But a backwater colony like No. 9527 obviously didn't carry such high-end goods.

Sighing with some regret, Li Ang placed an order on the trading website for some ordinary metal, preparing to first attempt crafting the 【M-311 Anti-Tank Cannon】.

He had to admit that Heaven and Earth as Furnace was a bit too overpowered; work that would normally require precision machining on a lathe was no trouble at all for Li Ang.

Soon, the ground before him was covered with parts of the 【M-311 Anti-Tank Cannon】.

The kind refined through Heaven and Earth as Furnace.

'If only I knew the Divine Craft of Hundred Refinements'

'Now I still have to assemble it by hand myself.'

With this thought, Li Ang began assembling according to the steps in the blueprints.

A few minutes later, Li Ang stared at the anti-tank cannon in his hands, slightly lost in thought.

As its maker, he could keenly detect that after being refined by Heaven and Earth as Furnace, every aspect of the anti-tank cannon's body had been improved somewhat.

Both its toughness and its thermal conductivity.

Perhaps these improvements don't mean much for an anti-tank cannon, but if you switched to other kinetic weapons with faster fire rates that need cooling, or to energy weapons that demand a strong gun body, they would be very important.

'Not only that, but in the future I might even be able to manufacture firearms imbued with Concepts.'

As the number of Li Ang's professions increased, strange chemical reactions were gradually occurring between them.

Then, after using the remaining metal to refine some matching projectiles, Li Ang set these things aside in a corner.

After finishing these tasks, he began to observe the basement.

Compared to before, the basement had changed quite a bit now; part of the walls had been replaced by smooth metal.

Over the past two days Li Ang basically hadn't done anything else—any free time he had, he spent remodeling this small basement.

Odin's corpse had also been stored in a hidden chamber he had specially opened up behind the basement wall, to prevent anyone who broke into the basement from damaging this precious material.

'I wonder when I'll actually be able to finish it.'

After a short rest, Li Ang continued his remodeling, hoping to complete his little workshop as soon as possible.

【Constructed Small Alchemy Workshop, Profession EXP +24】

【Constructed Small Alchemy Workshop, Profession EXP +36】.

Three days passed in a flash.

During this period, no one came looking for Li Ang again, which suited him just fine; his daily routine was basically remodeling the basement, then grinding his professions that hadn't maxed out yet.

Just when he thought life would go on like this forever, someone suddenly came knocking.

And it was someone Li Ang didn't know.

Looking at the young man outside the door wearing sunglasses and dressed very flashily, Li Ang couldn't help but ask: "You are?"

Faced with the question, the young man slightly lifted his sunglasses: "You're Li Ang?"

"Ma Kusi sent me over."

Work's here!

That was Li Ang's first reaction.

Ma Kusi is actually that reliable?

That was his second reaction.

But Li Ang quickly realized this was probably the return favor from that Public Security Bureau Chief for his straightforward sale of the alchemy bullet crafting method.

At this point, the young man introduced himself: "I'm Lu Ke Vede."

"I've seen that pair of brass knuckles you gave Ma Kusi—the craftsmanship is indeed quite good. I came today because I want you to help me forge a short sword."

After saying this, he quietly stared at Li Ang, as if expecting something.

Li Ang stepped aside: "Mr. Lu Ke, please come in and let's talk details."

Seeing this, Lu Ke somewhat incredulously took off his sunglasses: "You don't know me?"

Hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but be stunned: "Are you a celebrity?"

Seeing that he really didn't seem to recognize him, Lu Ke was silent for a moment before saying: "My father is Obiwang Vede."

The name Obiwang Vede struck Li Ang as oddly familiar.

After careful recollection, he realized—

Isn't that the name of the Viceroy of No. 9527 colony?!

Wait, does Ma Kusi have that kind of connection?

At this moment, Lu Ke was quite pleased with Li Ang's shock. He walked into the room and unceremoniously sat down on the sofa: "So do a good job, this Young Master here definitely won't treat you badly."

As the Viceroy's offspring, Lu Ke had the confidence to say such things.

Regarding his attitude, Li Ang didn't take it to heart; he simply closed the door and asked: "I don't know what material Young Master Lu Ke wants to use—I'll place the order now."

Facing such a big spender, he naturally had to get the details straight.

Hearing this, Lu Ke raised one finger and waved it: "There aren't any high-end goods on this planet. Use this, and I'll pay you the processing fee."

As he spoke, two bright yellow metal ores suddenly appeared before him.

Seeing this, Li Ang raised an eyebrow.

It was obvious Lu Ke possessed spatial equipment, but as the Viceroy's offspring, having spatial equipment didn't seem like anything worth being surprised about.

After a brief moment of thought, Li Ang said: "Young Master Lu Ke, I can forgo the payment; I only hope that if you have any extra spatial equipment, you could sell one to me."

Lu Ke appeared noncommittal. He propped both legs up on the coffee table before him: "I need to see the finished product you make first."

"Naturally."

Li Ang didn't dawdle; he immediately picked up the two pieces of bright yellow metallic ore and walked toward the basement.

Seeing this, Lu Ke quickly pulled his legs in and followed after him.

But when he saw the basement still under construction, a flicker of doubt suddenly rose in his heart.

"Maybe you should just give the materials back to me."

He felt Li Ang didn't seem as reliable as he appeared.

More importantly,

as a craftsman, where was the furnace for smelting the materials?!

Lu Ke didn't expect Li Ang to have something extravagant like a Star Forge, but at least a basic smelting furnace should be there.

"Could Ma Kusi be messing with me?"

He couldn't help thinking.

Li Ang naturally noticed Lu Ke's distrust, but he didn't care.

After all, he knew his half-finished workshop looked exactly like somewhere you'd flee from at any moment.

"Young Master Lu, you'd better wait upstairs," Li Ang said, lowering his head to inspect the materials in his hands. "I'm right here—do you think I'd run off?"

"If it fails, I'll reimburse you for the cost of the materials."

"By the way, any design preferences?"

Hearing this, Lu Ke hesitated, then turned and walked back upstairs: "No need. This much is nothing to this Young Master."

"Feel free to design it however you like—as long as it's not too ugly."

"Oh, and don't sharpen the edge."

As he spoke, the young nobleman had already returned to the first floor, leaving Li Ang alone in the basement.

He stared at the bright yellow ore, now analyzed by 【Basic Structural Science】, and muttered to himself:

"No wonder he's the Viceroy's son—he actually has something like this."

【Unknown Ore: Contains a trace of Lei Ting %&! @】

Even with his current 【Basic Structural Science】, Li Ang couldn't fully analyze it—this alone proved how rare these two ores were.

As for Lu Ke's request, Li Ang thought one piece might even be more than enough.

On one hand, making a short sword didn't require much material; on the other, because of his talent 【Dragon's Greed】.

"If things go well, I might even keep one for myself."

Thinking this, Li Ang couldn't help smiling.

But that's how craftsmen are—whether you secretly keep some of a client's materials depends entirely on your skill.

With this thought, Li Ang took a deep breath.

Then

Heaven and earth as furnace—unfold!
