363 TakeThese two problems are the Achilles' heel of Lou Gao.

After a stalemate for a moment, he gave in and said, "Okay, you win."

As he spoke, he walked to the front of the round platform and pointed at the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, "I heard that this weapon is quite powerful and can also break through the Soul Sect's defenses. It is as powerful as your weapon, but it is more exquisitely made."

"If you can get me the design drawings of this weapon, I will agree to it."

Qi Tian smiled faintly and explained: "This thing is called Zhuge Divine Crossbow, I know where it comes from."

Lou Gao was very excited. He grabbed Qi Tian's arm and asked, "Who did this?"

Qi Tian said: "Senior Lou Gao, please listen to me first and then make your own judgment."

"I do know the inventor of this thing, and the Zhuge Divine Crossbow you got should have been obtained from the Spirit Hall."

Lou Gao nodded.

Qi Tian continued, "This item was sold to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect by someone. After the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was destroyed, it fell into the hands of the Spirit Hall. I know a lot about this item. Senior Lou Gao, please listen to me."

"The number of arrows in this item is fixed. Once it is used up, no one else can replenish it except the designer. So, Senior Lou Gao, you can replicate it with your ability, but what about others?"

"Given the sophistication of this weapon, ordinary blacksmiths simply cannot make it. In addition, it is a one-time product, so it is impossible to popularize it. The most important point is that the range of this weapon is only 50 meters. Beyond this distance, the power will be greatly reduced. However, the power of my rifle will not be reduced within 600 meters."

"Also, once the rifle's bullets are used up, they can be replaced at any time."

With such a comparison, even if you are not a blacksmith, you will know who to choose.

The Zhuge Crossbow is a weapon of exquisite design, but its use is quite limited. Rifles, on the other hand, are not so sophisticated.

In other words, even if Lou Gao mastered the method of making Zhuge's magic crossbow, he could only improve his personal reputation and could not bring anything to the Blacksmith Association. On the contrary, the status of blacksmiths would be comprehensively improved.

"I understand. But it's impossible to convince the entire Blacksmith Association to obey you with just a rifle."

Qi Tian did not hesitate and took out the design drawings of the revolver from the soul guide.

In his previous life, he only memorized the design drawings of these two types of guns. However, the manufacturing process of revolvers was obviously much more complicated than that of rifles.

Looking at the drawings in front of him, Lou Gao was immediately impressed by the exquisite design.

"Is this the 'gun' you mentioned?" Lou Gao asked.

Qi Tian nodded, "This thing is small in appearance and suitable for self-defense. Senior Lou Gao, I have shown my sincerity, and now it is up to you to decide. I left a few mistakes in this design, so please consider it carefully."

Weapons like guns are new things, and it is impossible to tell the difference from a tall building.

"Teacher, in this Gengxin City, we have been suppressed by the Spirit Hall for so long. Since the Spirit Hall is so powerful that it cannot be shaken, why don't we take the initiative to move out?" Silong asked back.

Siyu also chimed in, "Yes. When the rifle comes out, the status of our blacksmiths will rise steadily. Why should we stick to Gengxin City? Besides, in Qitian's sect, the low-level blacksmiths in the Blacksmith Association will have a job."

After a long silence, Lou Gao's cloudy eyes seemed to be filled with light.

"Qitian, right? Do you take the treatment you mentioned earlier seriously?"

Qi Tian nodded and said, "I won't force all the blacksmiths to go. For those who don't want to go, I will give them compensation and let them continue to live in Gengxin City. Blacksmiths who are willing to join my sect will get the treatment I promised."

"At that time, the sect will provide the corresponding orders for your Blacksmith Association to ensure that everyone has food to eat."

Lou Gao laughed loudly, "Okay, with such treatment, my Blacksmith Association agrees to join you."

"However, the Blacksmith Association also has a vice president named Titan. Master, if you plan to recruit them, I am willing to step in."

Qi Tian refused immediately. "Elder Lou Gao, I'm sure you know who Tai Tan is. To put it bluntly, he is Tang Hao's servant. Does the suppression of your Blacksmith Association have nothing to do with the Haotian Sect back then?"

Si Long said angrily, "Teacher, when Tang Hao killed the Pope of the Spirit Hall, he just walked away, but our Blacksmith Association suffered an unexpected disaster. Moreover, has Vice President Titan ever come back in all these years?"

"A few years ago, when we encountered the most severe suppression, he didn't stand up for us. Haha, a guy like him is not worthy of being the vice president of the Blacksmith Association. I propose to remove him from the position of vice president!"

Siyu agreed, "I agree. Teacher, the Haotian Sect is a bunch of ungrateful guys."

Qi Tian added: "Elder Lou Gao, if you join our Elemental Sect, you must draw a clear line with the Power Clan. In the future, our sect may fight with the Haotian Sect. If you don't know the seriousness of the matter, there is no need to discuss joining the sect."

For a moment, Lou Gao was like an ant on a hot pot. "No, no, no, Sect Master. I am willing to swear on my martial arts soul and my life's accomplishments that I will never have anything to do with the Li clan in the future."

After all, he and Titan had not seen each other for many years. The friendship between the two was completely wiped out with the repeated suppression of the Spirit Hall.

"A wise choice." Qi Tian nodded, and then ordered: "A Fei, follow the two masters Silong and Siyu to count the number of people. Blacksmiths who are willing to go to the sect can get a resettlement fee ranging from 200 to 10,000 gold soul coins according to their level, and provide housing of varying sizes according to the number of family members. Those who are unwilling to go will be given a severance pay of 100 to 5,000 gold soul coins."

"Get a headcount as soon as possible. We need to leave as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded in agreement and quickly left the forging room.

Lou Gao asked: "Master, since we have joined your sect, can you please give me the complete version of the blueprint?"

Qi Tian laughed, "Elder Lou Gao, this is the complete version of the blueprint."

In such a short time, he didn't have time to draw a second design. He had no design skills and deliberately changed some parts, which could be seen through at a glance with Lou Gao's eyesight.

Instead of this, it is better to have truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth.

Lou Gao smiled in silence, he didn't expect this scene to happen.

"By the way, Master, where is Bishop Miles?"

Qi Tian also wanted to take action against Miles, but if the bishop of a city died, the Spirit Hall would definitely send people to investigate.

Gengxin City is not too far from Wuhun City. Once the strong men from the Wuhun Hall come here, it will not be difficult to find out his whereabouts.

If they were attacked, the disciples of the Blacksmith Association would suffer heavy casualties. By then, these people might even become hostile to the sect.

Calculating the time, Tang San has probably already gone to the Yu Clan, and it is only a matter of time before he arrives in Gengxin City.

In this case, just leave Miles to him, there is no need to do it yourself. (End of this chapter)
