Chapter 561: Chapter 559 Toy Legion
Jumo drove an old van, bringing Wen Wen and Barcode to an iron factory on the outskirts of the city.
This was a normal factory, producing ordinary steel, except that the owner of this iron factory was Red Beard.
He had always been using the factory’s resources to help himself search for some rare metals and perform some simple forging throughout the entire region.
At the edge of the factory, there was a relatively independent area, with a factory building at the center, which is where Red Beard worked.
The building was covered with a layer of insulation, looking somewhat rudimentary, but beneath the tin, it was built entirely of steel, resembling a fortress. Just this building alone was actually quite valuable.
The temperature nearby was abnormally high, and even though it was now in the depths of winter, it gave off a burning sensation.
After Jumo called out, the factory door was opened from inside. The first thing to emerge was a hot blast of air, followed by an unpleasant smell that made Wen Wen very uncomfortable.
Looking inside through the opened door, one could see bodies hanging within the building, the source of the smell that was detected earlier.
Wen Wen’s impression of Red Beard had already hit rock bottom before he even saw the man in person.
Red Beard emerged from within the factory building, with sweat evaporating off him like white mist, and a fiery beard that looked like a flaming red fire on his chin.
Wen Wen raised his eyebrows. At first glance, this fellow seemed quite intimidating, but he was really short...
Red Beard walked over to the trio, looking up at Jumo and asked, "Did the High-Rank Demon and the man with the Sword Qi Crystal come along with you?"
Jumo bowed and said, "As you’ve mentioned, my lord."
High-Rank Demon?
The man with the Sword Qi Crystal must be referring to Barcode, so the High-Rank Demon must be Wen Wen?
Wen Wen thought for a moment and realized he had given himself away when he had the Faceless Demon impersonate him.
But this was actually better. He was supposed to be playing the role of an extremely vicious person, and having the identity of a demon was the last thing to cause suspicion.
Red Beard looked at Wen Wen strangely and said, "You don’t look like a demon."
Wen Wen’s eyes flickered slightly as he subtly exercised control, releasing Qin Shuang’s unique aura,
It had the chilling and frightening characteristics of an Evil Ghost, as well as the malicious and weird aura of a Demon. Red Beard’s expression changed slightly; he had never seen a demon with such a unique aura before.
From that aura, Red Beard knew Wen Wen wouldn’t be easy to handle, but there was still a significant gap between them.
So he said to Jumo, "You can go back now, you’re no longer needed here."
After Jumo left, Red Beard asked with curiosity, "With Jumo’s strength, he should not be able to bring you down, so why did you come to find me with him?"
Wen Wen squatted down to bring his face to the same level as Red Beard’s and said, "I don’t know why you were looking for me, but I want you to help me forge a sword, a sword of my own."
"Forge a sword, huh." Red Beard looked at Wen Wen with ill intent.
"This thing is your payment for forging my sword." Wen Wen nodded to Barcode, who opened the case and took out the Sword Qi Crystal from the foul-smelling cotton.
Seeing the Sword Qi Crystal that contained immense power, Red Beard’s eyes went wide, and he excitedly reached out his hand, saying, "Give it to me!"
Barcode looked at Wen Wen, who shrugged slightly and said, "It’s alright, just give it to him."
Red Beard carefully took the Sword Qi Crystal, looking at it from left to right, and even licked it with his tongue to taste it.
Barcode, expressionless, closed the box. He did not want Red Beard to know what he’d just licked.
After confirming the Sword Qi Crystal was real, Red Beard, excited, spun in place with the crystal in his hand.
"I’m finally about to fulfill my longing of many years. If I forge this thing into the Demon Sword, I will surely succeed!"
"First, I must contaminate it with Demon’s Blood and the Soul of an Evildoer, and then..."
As he was speaking, Red Beard turned his head a looked at Wen Wen, revealing a savage smile, "If I melt you into the sword, it’ll definitely be stronger, won’t it? That way, I’d also fulfill the request to ’help’ you forge a sword."
Wen Wen frowned, "Forge a sword using me, are you insane?"
"Of course, I’m not insane, but using a demon like you as the nourishment will create a more powerful Demon Sword. I’ve already made the top-tier Sword Embryo; it won’t disgrace you."
Wen Wen sighed. It seemed that Red Beard was almost crazed in his pursuit to forge the Demon Sword.
One couldn’t help but wonder how many lives he had taken in his relentless experiments.
Such a deeply sinful man would be better off receiving labor reform in the Sanctuary.
Just as Wen Wen and Red Beard were about to clash, a toy plane fell from the sky, and Merry Troublemaker walked out wearing a leopard-print coat, with his three subordinates in tow.
His three subordinates were also quite distinct: one was riding a bicycle wielding a Red Tassel Spear, another wore a pumpkin on his head, and the last one had bands of saw-like blades across his body.
"Red Beard, I’ve come to have a word with you!"
"Merry Troublemaker, how did you get here..." Red Beard’s face darkened; Merry Troublemaker, like him, was an Upper Sequence Superpower User, but significantly stronger.
Merry Troublemaker stared intently at the Sword Qi Crystal in Red Beard’s hand and snorted coldly, "You killed my man, stole my thing, and still you ask why I’m here?"
"These two traded it to me," Red Beard said, pointing at Wen Wen and his companion, and tucked the Sword Qi Crystal into his waistband as he spoke to Merry Troublemaker.
Merry Troublemaker, furious, cursed loudly, "You old thing still dare to argue, today you’re dead for sure!"
He held a high position within Absurd Words, but didn’t have many Upper Sequence Superpower Users among his own ranks; Ti Qin’s group already accounted for half of his top fighters.
Even without the Sword Qi Crystal, having suffered such a loss at Red Beard’s hands, he was bound to settle the score with Red Beard, neither of them to rest until the other was dead.
And after seeing the Sword Qi Crystal with his own eyes, Merry Troublemaker realized just how captivating it was. For such a thing, he should have taken matters into his own hands sooner.
As the atmosphere grew increasingly tense, Wen Wen, along with Barcode, took two steps back.
Since that man from Absurd Words was interfering, Wen Wen was all too happy to watch them fight like snipe and clam, and gain from their struggle.
Merry Troublemaker spread out his arms and shouted at Red Beard, "Revel and roar, my beloved friends!"
A box opened on the plane, and dozens of uniquely shaped toys flew out, landing beside Merry Troublemaker.
Among them were over twenty toy soldiers, armed with various weapons, growing to the size of ordinary people, forming a protective circle around Merry Troublemaker.
And behind Merry Troublemaker, there stood a robot model over ten meters tall and a twenty-plus-meter high green plastic dinosaur toy!
There were other toy planes, tanks, battleships, and such — this was truly a toy army!
