Towards Eternity
Ch 550's. Split & Go
Night at the port.
Weng Lou walked into a shop that sold many types of weapons. Starting from new weapons that have never been used, to used weapons that have been used many times before.
The shopkeeper who was a one-eyed fat man sat with both hands folded when he saw the figure of Weng Lou walking into his shop. Next to his eyebrows slightly raised when he saw the figure of Weng Lou who was only a teenager. But he did not drive out Weng Lou because it was quite often a member of a sect visited his shop, but this was the first time anyone dared to be alone.
"What are you looking for, son? The weapon for Martial Practitioners is on your right, while for ordinary and used weapons is on your left. For the price, it can be discussed later, please choose the weapon you like first," he told Weng Lou.
Weng Lou nodded in understanding and immediately walked towards his left. The shopkeeper only stared at Weng Lou for a moment before then turning his gaze on the two twin swords wrapped around by bandages so as not to show the slightest how he looked. His eyes only stared at the two new weapons belonging to Weng Lou for a moment, before then his attention was shifted to Weng Lou who was seen choosing a lot of knives in one of the storage boxes.
"Why did you pick so many knives? You can choose a good quality knife on your right if you want a durable knife. The price will not be much different from a knife as much as you choose it," he said as he looked at Weng Lou in astonishment. But Weng Lou chose more knives and placed them in front of his chest to cover almost half of his face.
After being satisfied to choose for almost five minutes, Weng Lou also brought all the knives to the fat shop owner. But it turned out that Weng Lou bekum finished choosing his weapon, after putting all the knives on the table, he said, Weng Lou then went again to look for some mineral materials placed in small barrels near here containing weapons belonging to Martial Practitioners.
Weng Lou spent another five minutes choosing the mineral. He placed all the materials he had chosen beside the pile of previously selected knives.
"How much total?" asked Weng Lou without length.
The shopkeeper blinked, he needed to digest what was happening right now in front of him.
"Hey, how many?" asked Weng Lou once again who immediately resuscitated the shop owner. "Ah? Yes...eh, that's.all 91 gold coins."
"Here, just take the change." Weng Lou threw a small bag of 100 gold coins at the fat man, then walked away, planning to leave the gun shop. However, before he exited the store, the man stopped him.
"Ma-I'm sorry, but your money's enough to buy all the knives you have left in that box. If you want, you can take all those knives with you along with the box" the fat man told Weng Lou.
Weng Lou's steps seemed to be at a standstill and he looked at the fat man with a happy smile, "Alright if that's what you want. I won't hesitate to take it."
The total price of the knife he bought was only ten gold coins, which made it reach the price of 91 gold koib was the price of the mineral material he chose. Although the materials were of low quality, they were all materials for making a tier 1 weapon.
Weng Lou threw all the knives he had previously bought into the town the gun shop owner was referring to along with some of the minerals he had bought. He easily lifted the wooden box containing the old and new knives and took them away from the store.
Weng Lou did not return to the inn they had rented the night before, but he chose to prepare at a forging forge that could be rented as per the time of its use. His steamship has gone sailing without him. He had bid farewell to his crew including to Du Zhe.
After a slightly dramatic farewell due to the endless crying Du Zhe, the ship finally sailed out of port. Following the special route that Weng Lou had set up, their ship was moving towards a hidden location that was Weng Lou's waiting point. It was impossible for anyone to find that location unless he had a map, or to follow their group from behind clandestinely.
"Haaaahh.I will definitely miss them all" Weng Lou said with a bit of sadness but soon he turned his attention to his current job.
The knife he had bought from the weapon shop before, was now arranged in such a way behind the clothes he had modified alone in order to hide as many knives as he had bought. After finishing composing his knife, Weng Lou then went on to re-forge both of his twin swords with the mineral materials he bought along with his knives.
This mineral material serves as a mere disguise, so that he is not too suspected. These two swords were neither Level 3 Weapons nor Spiritual Weapons as they were not given any Qi or inner power at all at the time of manufacture. You could say it was actually impossible for anyone to suspect this weapon, but in appearance and durability and sharpness, this Weng Lou weapon could make people in the realm of Soul Unification go crazy because of it.
"Hehehe.no one would think that a bad weapon like this turned out to be a weapon that could even cut the skin of a king-level beast easily," said Weng Lou with his evil grin.
If a Martial Practitioner in the realm of Soul Unification stage 1 to 4 tried to withstand this sword attack without using the slightest Qi, then he would be instantly hit by his attack, Weng Lou could guarantee it a hundred percent as long as he faced no specialization in strengthening the body.
The skin of a savage beast that possessed strength in the Soul Unification realm basically possessed defense and an extremely hard complexion like the Black Ape Fighter. They naturally had endurance and strength above Martial Practitioners who had strength at the same level as them. So it was clear the reason why Weng Lou was so confident towards this weapon.
While Weng Lou was busy preparing all his weapons, two black robed figures were seen observing the harbor from the top of a building that was the tallest building in the harbor. The two of them had just met the leader of this port, Governor Haido.
From it they found an important information, namely there is a new ship 2 days anchored in the port. There is a terrible creature on the ship that even makes Governor Haido not want to deal further with the owner of the ship. The ship intended by the Governor also looks different from other ships, which does not have a single sail on it and can move well on the water.
This made the two of them become a little dizzy, because after finishing getting the information, the ship they were looking for had now disappeared from the port. It said the ship had left the port in a hurry. Unfortunately they could not go looking for the ship because it was night so it would be difficult to find where the ship went.
The only reason why they did not leave the port was because they heard that the captain was not on board when the ship left. There is a possibility that the captain still lives in this port.
"I'll search all over the west, you search the east. It should be easy enough to find him because he must be the one we're looking for. The power he has should be easily detected by us," said one of them and immediately split up looking for the whereabouts of Weng Lou.
Not long after, another figure also darted away from it.
In the morning, in front of the port entrance. Weng Lou stood among the trees while staring at the group of Jade Bamboo Sect that was walking out of the harbor.
From his place, Weng Lou could clearly see the black-robed figure that was part of the Jade Bamboo Sect following them silently in the shadows, just like him. But the difference, the location of Weng Lou was completely unknown to that person.
"Well, now which route are you going?" weng Lou said slowly. His eyes radiated a gaze full of deceit and intelligence simultaneously and made himself seem like a predator who was stalking his prey.
