Chapter 152: Easy Marks with Deep Pockets — Come Quick!

First floor.

Lu Ke was sitting on the sofa, head lowered, looking at the contents on his communication device.

By now, half an hour had passed since Li Ang began his alchemy.

He wasn't in any rush — after all, sometimes craftsmen spent ten days to half a month making equipment, and that was perfectly normal.

Still, since the person downstairs had told him to wait, it probably wouldn't take that long.

Just as Lu Ke was thinking this, Li Ang opened the basement door and walked out.

And in his hand he was holding a short sword.

"Young Master Lu Ke, please have a look."

As he spoke, Li Ang handed it over to Lu Ke.

Lu Ke looked at the faintly glimmering short sword in his hand, and a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face: "I thought those knuckle-dusters you gave Ma Kusi were already your limit. I didn't expect you could go even further?"

"And this style—"

That's right — during this forging process, Li Ang had directly implanted two alchemy matrices into the equipment.

They were 【Concealment】 and 【Tenacity】.

After all, the materials Lu Ke provided were even stronger than fire crystal, so naturally he couldn't just attach a single attribute like before.

Besides, even if something went wrong, didn't he still have a spare piece?

Fortunately, in the end it was a success, and Li Ang succeeded in keeping that piece of material.

As for the style—

Li Ang had modeled it after the Jeweled Sword from Type-Moon in his memory.

But it was also because Lu Ke requested no edge be sharpened; otherwise he wouldn't have imitated this weapon.

Paired with the concealment array, it really did bear some resemblance.

Of course, it was only the appearance that resembled it — an unsharpened short sword couldn't even stab a person to death.

Seeming quite satisfied with the alchemy equipment Li Ang had made, Lu Ke stored it in his spatial equipment and said: "The things you need — I'll have someone send them over in the next couple of days."

"Then thank you very much, Young Master Lu Ke. May I ask how much of a price difference I need to make up?"

Although Lu Ke hadn't mentioned beforehand what the processing fee for this job would be, the payment was certainly not enough to exchange for a spatial equipment.

And Li Ang wasn't afraid the other party would run off either — after all, just the piece of metal he'd kept had already earned him a great deal.

However, in response to his question, Lu Ke simply waved his hand: "No need. Consider it making a friend."
