'So this is how The Beast God Temple was able to provide an inheritance to all the beastman until now, everyone who takes inheritance also leaves one for others? If we go like that then the inheritance in it is inexhaustible. The one who made this was really smart, I wonder if I should make something like that in the future,' Rex thought.
Rex then cast a glance at Lerna who had a serious expression on her face with her hand touching her chin, she seemed like she was thinking about something.
Rex raised his eyebrow, from what he predicted she should be excited after hearing all this and would directly ask when they were heading to the temple but she was actually thinking?
"What is the visiting time of the temple?" Lerna suddenly asked.
"Eh… anyone can enter anytime they want whether it is day or night as long as they follow the rules," Sung Lee said.
"Hmm… what is the security level of the temple?" She asked again.
"The temple is protected by several experts, they are not only from Relion Family but also those inner disciples and core disciples of Supreme Sword Sect and Temple Of War Sect who accepted the task of protecting the temple but this is not all, every beastman regards it as a sacred place so if it is really attacked then even civilians will interfere.
And although I am not sure about their cultivation base but there will definitely be some hidden experts there protecting it, so I believe even a Calamity Lord won't have it easy if they tried to plunder it," Sung Lee said at the same time he thought if this crazy woman had any idea about attacking the temple that's why he explained it so thoroughly, he wanted to travel in the boat of Frozen Flame so how could he let it sink?
Just when he was thinking she asked a question again.
"What is the average number of people that enter the temple every day?" Lerna asked with a serious expression.
"50 to 100 approximately," Although he found it weird that why she is asking such a useless question, he still answered it.
"I see, what are the chances of one obtaining cultivation or martial technique? and what are the chances of it being at Heaven Grade?" Lerna again threw two questions at him.
Sung Lee displayed his divine patience he built during the times when he had to keep hidden for several days in the same place to find a single opportunity to assassinate his targets and answered all of Lerna's questions.
Rex on the side was giving her strange looks.
'Rose check and tell me what type of books did the clone write in last week in descending order,' Rex asked.
[I checked, the books were:- The Adventure of TinTin, The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes part 1-3, Detective Cona….]
Rex facepalmed*
Now he understood what was happening.
The books that the clone wrote were the modified version of books Rex read from the earth, normal people in them were turned into cultivators and the same happened with the world, the cars became carriages, the guns became crossbows, criminals became evil cultivators, and the likes. It was a piece of cake for someone like the current Rose to do.
Rex quickly thought of something and started laughing.
"Hahaha... Lady Lerna you don't need to test the authenticity of his information, I have done thorough research on him and know that the information collected by Sect Master Sung has an accuracy rate of at least 90%," Rex said while laughing, at the same time he sent a message to Lerna threatening her to keep quiet or he will not bring her to Beast God Temple.
Lerna was angry at that but still turned quiet, one of the quotes in the books she read was - a wise woman knows when to step down.
Sung Lee's eyes shined with a flash of wisdom as he looked at Lerna with vigilance and quickly added her to his Old Fox list.
He was even a little scared in his heart, he was almost fooled by her and failed to discover her motive behind those silly questions.
He had long added The Reaper and Miraculous Alchemist Ye Tian to his Old Fox list. The former was not only able to strike a temporary alliance in his first meet up with him, but he also struck a deal with Cold Heaven Sect and establish a branch in Snow Jade City which several big shots failed to do in the past.
As for the later - Miraculous Alchemist Ye Tian, he was able to gain Snow Yin Lotus from the sect master of Cold Heaven Sect who was already at the top 5 on his Old Fox list furthermore, he used his slippery tongue to extort his sect ancestors in his first meet up. This was something Sung Lee himself only realized after he thought about it later on but when he told this to his master, the reply he got was that - you were thinking too much why would an Alchemist use someone else's name to extort them, a prideful alchemist like Ye Tian wouldn't do that.
Sung Lee then looked at Rex who looked like the most honest of the four Guardians of the Frozen Flame he met so far but he was still vigilant as he knew that snake only shows its fangs when it strikes.
"I am really grateful to Sect Master Sung for going through all these efforts to complete the deal. I feel that this deal is unfair to you so I prepared this gift for Sect Master Sung," Rex said as he took out a long cuboid box from his inventory and handed it to Sung Lee.
"No, it was a deal I needed to complete I cannot accept any extra rewards this goes against our sect rules," Sung Lee directly rejected but his favourability of Rex slightly rose.
Rex had prepared this gift quite a while ago and it was not only for him but also for other people he saw as potential targets that could grow well in the future.
The Reaper had a cold temperament and the type who extorts others.
Ye Tian is an expert alchemist that has immense knowledge of herbs and remains in seclusion most of the time.
These were the images Rex built, now that the Reaper was hard to approach, Lerna didn't bait them eyes and Alchemist Ye was always busy then whom would the people approach?
It's obviously the kind, honest, and gentle Rex Andrews who is a senior respected by The Reaper & Alchemist Ye and has the guts to face Lerna.
The image of Rex would act as a magnet to attract all the ones who want to have ties with Frozen Flame.
"Sect Master Sung doesn't need to see it as a part of the deal, please take this as my meeting gift to you, if you still reject it then I would take it as Sect Master Sung not wanting to do any business with me in the future," Rex said as he pushed the box in his hands.
Sung Lee reluctantly took the box then after a moment of thought he decided to open it, that way he would be able to appraise the value of the gift on the spot.
When he opened the box, he saw two long black gloves like equipment lying inside it, they were long enough to cover his hand until elbows but didn't look bulky as gauntlets, their design somewhat resembled gauntlets but they looked lighter compared to them. Both of them were pitch black in color and from the size alone Sung Lee could tell that they were made for him.
He slightly shook his head, he wasn't the tanker type fighter so a weapon like a gauntlet was useless for him, he decided to take it for now then put them in inventory later on.
Rex could guess what he was thinking but he just smiled and said.
"Why don't Sect Master Sung try it right now?" Rex said then without waiting for any reply he helped him wear them.
Sung Lee was a little surprised after he wore them, he expected them to be heavy but they were extremely light like no metal was used in making them. How would he know that Rex used an alloy whose main ingredient was graphene to make them, the alloy not only made them extremely light but also stronger than Volcanic Iron & Steel.
"They can be used in two ways, first is their offensive mode.." Rex said as he instructed him how to operate them.
Sung Lee directed his Qi in them according to the method.
..Swoosshh….
Suddenly, three pitch-black blades shot out from both gloves in an instant.
Sung Lee was shocked when he saw that not because of the quickness of the blades and the unchanged weight of the gloves but the fact that he could channel his Qi through these blades which can only be done in spirit weapons moreover from the fluent-ness of channeling the Qi alone he could tell that their grade has surpassed spirit rank mid-grade.
"Although the things I made don't have a good grading system yet but I should tell you these blades can rival a sprit rank high-grade weapon, now let's try the second mode…" Rex said.
Sung Lee raised his hand then clenched a fist, the blades retracted all of a sudden but the gloved madly sucked his spiritual Qi then an array pattern shined on the back of gloves and a black shield made of Qi appeared out of thin air.
"This shield might not be strong enough to take an all out hit from a high-grade weapon but it can heal and be used infinitely as long as you have Qi left and the equipment is not broken," Rex said with a smile.
Sung Lee faintly smiled but wondered if he should add Rex to his Old Fox list, it was fine if the gift was an equipment just for show or some random pill but it was a tailored made equipment with value no less than a high-grade spirit weapon. A weapon like that can become a sect heirloom of his sect but he got it as a gift and now that he has accepted the gift he cannot return it which mean he owes Rex a big favor so if Rex asked him to something in the future he cannot refuse or he will lose face.
For someone whose sect follows strict rules and has a big reputation in the whole underworld his face value was very high and he can't lose it.
Mid-grade spirit weapon and high-grade spirit weapon just have a one-grade difference but the differenced in value is very high especially for a versatile weapon like the one Rex gave him.
Sung Lee sighed, he was about to remove them but Rex stopped him and told him to refine them.
The refining process was very easy he just needed to drop some blood on them, but just after he successfully refined them, the front part of the gloves moved, the black metallic parts near the finger area and palm area opened and retracted back into the space made by the ones at the wrist area.
Before he knew it the gloves transformed and now were like a light arm protector, knights normally wear under their clothes, his hands were now free.
"It's their basic form, you don't need to take them out and wear them when fighting, you can keep wearing them all the time and transform them in an instant when you need them. They also have a concealing array on them so unless you meet an expert spirit array grandmaster they won't find anything wrong with it," Rex was confident in his Array Circuit Tech so he was sure that not everyone could guess the value of the thing he made until they use them.
Sung Lee nodded. No matter how he saw it the weapon suited him in every expect and he liked it but when he thought that this person is the one who makes the weapon for Frozen Flame he slightly felt cold in his back.
Now he could guess where the confidence of Reaper comes from, after all, the weapon he uses probably comes from this person.
