Chapter 735: Chapter 735: The True and Fake Cloak People

"Chief, yesterday the Great Chief brought the original book, and we finally got a clear look!"

"What we have here is a double helix spring; however, the material of this spring is really hard to simulate. We don’t have a way to make the spring as delicate, since this also involves the issue of remaking the spring machine."

The craftsman rambled on with technical jargon, but Li Wenli only heard one key point.

Great Chief, the original book?

Oh-ho?

Has the affair of His Majesty appeared?

As he was pondering the issue, the craftsman took out an ancient scroll from a drawer.

Li Wenli suppressed the excitement in his heart and calmly took the ancient scroll with trembling hands.

He looked it over seriously, only to see that the scroll’s material was so ancient, its edges were frayed, a testament to the long years it had endured.

The yellowed scroll was also filled with numerous tiny annotations.

It seemed this was indeed the affair of His Majesty they had been searching for.

Li Wenli was overjoyed inside, and his claws gripping the ancient scroll did not loosen at all.

Nobody noticed anything amiss, simply assuming that the Chief was seriously studying the scroll.

Just then, more noise came from the entrance of the Assembly Workshop, and Li Wenli turned around to see someone who looked exactly like him, one of the Cloak People, appear here.

That person seemed just as surprised to see Li Wenli there and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

"Who are you?"

"?" Li Wenli looked bewildered. Everyone else could tell he was the Second Seat; couldn’t this person?

But that person charged furiously with a dangerous look and said, "You’re not Lao Er!"

As he spoke, a fierce Sword Qi emerged from his sleeve.

The craftsmen were all stunned.

Why would the Great Chief and Second Seat start fighting without so much as a word? And saying that the Second Seat is not really the Second Seat, then who is he?

As everyone remained in shock, the Second Seat easily dodged and also spoke up, "You’re the impostor."

"???" Everyone was completely baffled.

What?

Who exactly is the fake one?

The person in the large cloak scoffed coldly, "Don’t think you can fool anyone with your trivial tricks, show your true face if you dare."

"You have the guts; you show yours first."

Li Wenli was not at all upset by the provocation, and he answered leisurely.

By this time, even the craftsmen felt something was off. The Second Seat was always serious and never a man of empty words; he would rather fight than quip. Yet here was this Second Seat, retorting every time the Great Chief said something, and with enough bite to make one cough up blood.

This... was certainly not the Second Seat.

The craftsmen instinctively kept their distance from the Second Seat, but at that moment, the Second Seat suddenly raised his hand, and a huge burst of Inner Strength surged out, knocking the Great Chief flying.

"!" Everyone was taken aback once more.

Damn, only the Second Seat has such profound Inner Strength.

This person... this person seems to be the real Second Seat!

So the craftsmen, who had started to move away from Li Wenli, halted uncertainly, unsure whether to flee.

And then the person lying on the outside suddenly convulsed, and several black lines shot out of his hand.

Upon seeing these lines, everyone stopped hesitating and started to run.

"It’s the Water Thread Worms! Run!"

The Water Thread Worms were bred by the Great Chief, these creatures were indestructible, and upon contact with human flesh, they would breed continuously until the person was entirely corroded into mush.

There had been craftsmen who previously defected and ended up tortured to death by these very Water Thread Worms, so everyone was all too familiar with them.

Upon seeing the swarms of black Water Thread Worms flying towards them, regardless of who was the real one and who was the fake, they knew that escape was paramount.
