Chapter 1270.1: Show of Force
— Tell me what you want from me, " Reed said, and sat down on the blacksmith's stove. Initially, he lived in a dark and closed temple. To him, the current conditions were already heavenly, and most importantly, in this place, he could take advantage of endless opportunities.
That was also why Reed didn't get mad at Su Xiao.
— Fix my equipment, " Su Xiao replied and took out the Dragon Flash along with the armband from the "King's Set". As for fixing firearms, such as the Duke of Nirvana, it wasn't Reed's area and he couldn't fix such things. The repair of equipment did not take place by banal throwing things in the furnace. The best person to fix the Duke of Nirvana was a girl from Mechanic Street. As for edged weapons, there were no other blacksmiths better than Reed to repair such items.
Reed unsheathed the Dragon Flash and examined the longsword. Seeing the sharp edge of the blade, Reed nodded. He immediately realized that this sword had been carefully tended for a long time, so all he needed to do now was patch up the tiny marks on the blade .
— For all of the seventy — five thousand eight hundred Paradise coins, " Reed said, voicing the sky-high price. Anywhere else, repairing two things would have cost a maximum of 6,000 Paradise coins, but Reed didn't want to fool Su Xiao. He had an almost paranoid desire for work. In his opinion, either he shouldn't have taken the job, or he should have done it in the best possible way.
Su Xiao took out Reed's medal. Seeing her, Reed felt a lump form in his throat, and he felt as if he had been betrayed.
— You Hunters are indeed the" sons "of Paradise," two wisps of white air shot out of Reed's nostrils.
Hearing what he said, Su Xiao's pupils narrowed.
— Don't worry, I'm not the type of employee who doesn't know anything. I am considered a certified creator in Paradise. If the Hunters are part of Paradise's power structure, then I'm part of the logistics one. Creators, Judges, and Hunters don't fight each other, " Reed said, and turned on the S-class furnace, then used the microscope to study the Dragon Flash blade..
Su Xiao didn't see any notifications from Paradise, which meant that Reed's words were true. He really had a right to know about the Hunters.
— The past is the past. I'm a rude person. I won't thank you for sending me here. You should have gotten your share of this a long time ago. Given the current realities, we will obviously be in contact with you for some time yet, " Reed said, and made a mark on the Dragon Flash blade. Almost immediately, an almost imperceptible crack appeared on the blade. Although Su Xiao had carefully nurtured Dragon Flash, he wasn't adept at creating such things. As for repairing the Sunset of Divinity Scabbard, it was only a dark purple piece of equipment, so it had a limited safety margin.
— I agree, it's better to cooperate with each other instead of stupid hostility, " Su Xiao replied, then found an empty seat on a bench nearby and sat down to rest.
— It doesn't take long before I can come back to life in the true sense of the word, " Reed said, and then he laughed, but it didn't sound very pleasant. It wasn't good. When he was in the Shia Continent, he stole the king's favorite queen and released the accumulated steam. He had committed many immoral acts in his lifetime, and the number of lives he had ruined was hard to calculate.
— You can use this medal and use my services for free, but this kind of one — sided exploitation does not correspond to long-term cooperation, " Reed finally said something really worthwhile.
— I'll sell you rare metals and minerals at a twenty percent discount from the market price.
— Eighty.
— ...
— Seventy.
— …
— Forty.
After a bit of haggling, they finally agreed on a 25% discount. From now on, Reed will be able to purchase rare metals, minerals, and blacksmithing materials from Su Xiao at a discount of 25%.
From the outside, it might seem that Su Xiao was not in a very favorable position, but in reality, this was not the case. A really high-quality repair of things, especially of this quality, cost tens of thousands of Paradise coins. If ordinary blacksmiths repair the Dragon Flash, nothing will happen to it in the short term, but in the long term, the attack power, sharpness, and durability will decrease.
