Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

Speaking of the Weapon Refining Academy, Bai Yu was also here for the first time.

With Mu Yaoxi leading the way, the journey was smooth.

Mu Yaoxi's brother Mu Feng is the vice-president of the Weapon Refining Society. In addition, the Weapon Refining Academy and the Martial Arts Academy have always been on the same side, so many students will be confused when they see Bai Yu. He nodded with a smile to show his goodwill, which made him only nod in return in an Ultra style.

As I walked along, I felt like I was about to turn into light.

"Now you are a big celebrity in the college. Even if you don't take the initiative to become famous, there are still people who will push it." Mu Yaoxi teased: "I don't know how many senior sisters are willing to give birth to monkeys for you."

Bai Yu skipped this topic and asked: "This is my first time coming to the Weapon Refining Academy. What are the responsibilities and functions here?"

"Forging, design, assembly." Mu Yaoxi said concisely.

"I can understand forging, but what about design and assembly?"

"Do you know the Tiangong Division?"

"Of course I know, one of the ten divisions of Daxia." Bai Yu glanced at Qin Xuexu. Before clearing the dungeon and changing his destiny, the body Qin Xuexu used was Yanou's body. The creation of the company.

Of course, Tiangongsi's achievements are far more than that. It has more internal subdivisions. Large design institutes are responsible for the design and construction of many large-scale projects, and Tiangongsi's core factory has the only Yandu manufacturing technology in the world. Its origin can be traced back to the Mohists in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it has been improved through many generations.

"The weapons refining academy also overlaps with the functions of the Tiangong Department?" Bai Yu was slightly surprised.

"There are also professional subdivisions in the Weapon Refining Academy. They can basically be divided into two types. One is the blacksmith who refines and uses weapons, and the other is the sky craftsman who is responsible for designing and synthesizing large-scale mechanical equipment. In the Weapon Refining Academy, More than 70% of the students are Celestial Craftsmen rather than blacksmiths." Mu Yaoxi said: "In fact, in the Weapon Refining Academy, the Tiangong Society and the Weapon Refining Society are in a dual state."

"The Celestial Craftsman is a profession responsible for production, right?" Bai Yu was puzzled: "Obviously most of the people who enter Penglai Academy are extraordinary people, why would you choose the Celestial Craftsman?"

"Because of talent." Mu Yaoxi shook her head and said: "Most of the craftsmen in the Artifact Refining School of Penglai Academy are engaged in production professions. Like Danshi, the assessment method is different from the college entrance examination we experienced. In other words... They are all talented students.”

"The foundation of a country still lies in production and development. If it weren't for the need to fight against the Shadow World and the Subsidence Zone, perhaps there would be more extraordinary people engaged in production."

"If the Sky Shadow World and the Subsidence Zone disappear, the number of extraordinary people who are only good at fighting will also be reduced."

Qin Xuezhao nodded in agreement: "Without enemies, there is no need for swords."

"But this may not be a good thing." Bai Yu sighed.

The two women asked strangely: "Why?"

"There is a bottleneck period and an upper limit for development. The explosion of technology does not happen overnight, and new growth points are not easy to find... Although the existence of the shadow world brings danger, it also means opportunity. At the same time, it is also depleting the population, and The positions vacated by the depleted population will be filled by newcomers, which is also a kind of class mobility."

"But if the number of extraordinary people engaged in production becomes too large, but the corresponding consumer demand decreases, this will only further promote market involution."

Baiyu is well aware of the limitations of economic development.

Especially since there are no exports in this world, only domestic demand.

If it cannot expand production and absorb the world's wealth through exports to expand its own economy, then there must be an upper limit to its development.

When the time comes, there will be no shadow world to consume the population and provide opportunities. In addition, most extraordinary people have relatively long lifespans, and the entire society will inevitably fall into a state of stagnation. How can extraordinary people who have no channels and ways to rise can be honest? Stay on the ground floor.

Although the Shadow World is a disaster, it also forces the evolution of human civilization.

Because the most important way to deal with the shadow world is to rely on extraordinary people to fill it with their lives, it is destined that the number of producers will not be too many, which further forces a small number of producers to start improving production methods and greatly improving efficiency, thus forming A whole new system with the ability to change itself.

This is Bai Yu's guess. This is the macro guess, but there must be certain errors in the details. After all, Daxia has a long history, and it is obviously inappropriate to rely on the past.

But the reason why it can maintain overall social stability for a long time is inseparable from the screening mechanism of the Shadow World.

Fighting with heaven and fighting with people are destined to be different.

Of course, this idea is a bit deviant in this world. Others may not think this idea. Most people hate the existence of the shadow world and think that the world would be worse without it. good.

"Let's not care about the matter of the sky craftsman for now, but what is a blacksmith?" Bai Yu didn't plan to go to the design institute to draw pictures, so he changed the topic directly. In his previous life, he had a charming college classmate who was already extremely smart after only three years in the design institute. , even more haggard than programmers and siege lions.

"The blacksmith is like my brother, who is responsible for making special weapons." Mu Yaoxi changed the topic without hesitation: "The Mu family used to be blacksmiths. Even after they became soldiers, they never forgot this craft. The most important things in an army are 'soldiers and armor', and the blacksmith is the one who forges weapons."

"Can't this be made in a factory?"

"Ordinary weapons are not suitable for extraordinary beings. Once you reach the realm of extraordinary beings, ordinary weapons will break down almost as soon as you use them. For example, the forging process of the Rock Army's Rock Gun requires 27 steps, and it takes fourteen days to successfully forge it. ." Mu Yaoxi recalled what happened when she was a child, and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "When I was a child, my children were asked to draw lots, and what Mu Feng got was a hammer, which established that he would have to be a blacksmith for the rest of his life. The foundation has prepared sufficient energy for him to deal with coal and fire all day long in the future. You can see that he is a hammer swinger now."

Bai Yu suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked, "Does he know any hidden weapons?"

Mu Yaoxi also narrowed her eyes: "Your words are too vicious."

Entering the weapon refining club, it looked like a large gym. A group of brothers were lifting iron, looking at the muscles on their bodies with affectionate eyes.

A surge of male hormones...and they were still attracted to each other.

Excessive exercise attracts people of the same sex. You can hardly find a girl wherever you look.

"Ninety-nine percent of the Weapon Refining Club are men." Mu Yaoxi pointed out: "The remaining one percent are field staff and managers."

Bai Yu sighed: "You should treat me to a massage."

"?"

"If I hadn't dragged you into Qianchen Club, you would have spent all day in the gym pumping iron and turned into a muscular Diao Chan."

Mu Yaoxi's scalp suddenly went numb.

She didn't dare to think about this scene, so she hurriedly came to the counter and knocked on the table: "Where is the person?"

The young man holding a jar of protein powder behind the door walked to the counter: "Here, here, Miss Mu, what do you want? Are you bringing someone to apply for a card?"

Mu Yaoxi hardened her fist: "Since when did the Artifact Refining Club have this kind of business?"

The young man said weakly: "In order to generate income, the body shaping effect here is quite good. Everyone is professional in body training and knows the structure of the human body very well. Many girls from other hospitals will secretly come here to look at the muscles. I recommend you to apply for a card. Make a fortune to subsidize the club.”

"Then why didn't you see the girl?" Mu Yaoxi raised an eyebrow.

"Because they just like to watch it, and they watch it for free." The young man sighed.

"The spirit of free prostitution is the same for both men and women." Bai Yu is a professional, so no matter how funny it is, he won't laugh.

Mu Yaoxi put her hand on her forehead and said straight to the point: "Where is Mu Feng? Call him out!"

"The vice president went to Wanjian Mountain today."

"Why is he going to Wanjian Mountain? To practice Wanjian Heart Piercer?"

"That's not to say, the vice president is heartless."

"Let's get down to business!"

"Wanjian Mountain opens once a month. You have to go in and take people out, otherwise you may die in it." The young man replied: "I enter Wanjian Mountain to choose swords. Weapons made by countless blacksmiths and mentors in the past, as well as weapons from all dynasties. The swords of swordsmen of all ages have been left in the mountain, so it is called Wanjian Mountain."

"Be born in the Martial Saint Pavilion, and return to Wanjian Mountain after death... Weapons return to Wanjian Mountain after death, which is a beautiful posthumous title for a swordsman."

"If students want to enter Wanjian Mountain, they need to pay one thousand credits. If they want to leave, they must choose a sword and be chosen by the sword."

Bai Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you grab a thousand credits?"

The members of the Refining Club asked strangely: "Isn't this better than robbing? Others are still asking us to collect credits."

One thousand credits are given once, so there are not many students entering Wanjian Mountain every month, and there is basically no competition.

The Weapon Refining Society actually earns credits through the customized services of Wanjian Mountain and Weapon Mechanism. It can be said to be the second richest after Danding Academy.

Pills are consumables, but a good weapon can be used for a long time. It is impossible to replace weapons at will.

Although they are incomparable in terms of quantity, the credits obtained from selling a weapon are higher than the profits from elixirs.

Bai Yu asked again: "Are the swords you have here safe?"

"No guarantee." The young man spread his hands and said, "Whether you can get it or not depends on your ability. You can't blame society for being stupid, and you can't blame the sword for being weak."

"But if you can collect a thousand credits, even if you can't get the top-notch ancient sword, you can still get a second-tier weapon, right?"

"Each student can stay in Wanjian Mountain for a maximum of one month. Those who have not come out for more than a month will have someone go in and take them out."

"Usually the president doesn't have time, so the vice president leads the team to search for people. There can be no delay, otherwise the person who went in a month ago may not be buried until a month later."

"Today is the day when Wan Jianshan's relatives are here, and they are not so bad-tempered, so it is also the day when the sword energy is at its weakest, and it is the best day to go in and hunt for people."

After explaining, the young man pointed to the side: "Go out from this door and walk two miles to the entrance of the Jianzhu Forest in Wanjian Mountain. Just wait for someone there."

After finishing speaking, he continued to prepare the protein powder, took out the scales and weights and began to weigh accurately.

Bai Yu said: "This is not like the Weapon Refining Club, but like the Blade Tooth Club."

"It doesn't matter whether you are in another family or not. You need to be tough to make iron." Mu Yaoxi explained forcefully. After that, she felt that it didn't make sense and could only say: "Most of the people who work on iron are peripheral members. They are swordsmen, and the real forgers are There are less than thirty people in the division and they usually don’t hang out here.”

"Swordsman." Bai Yu thought thoughtfully.

"Isn't your swordsmanship very good?" Mu Yaoxi suddenly thought: "You knocked down that extraordinary third-level black dragon bloodline in one move."

"A black dragon is not a dragon."

"Doesn't it count?"

"It's not a black dragon if it can't display a winning attitude." Bai Yu was speechless.

Entering through the back door, it is extremely narrow at first and only then can people enter.

After walking dozens of steps, I suddenly became enlightened.

Suddenly I came across a sword and bamboo forest. There were no miscellaneous trees in it, the grass was delicious and the fallen flowers were colorful.

A majestic mountain appeared in sight with a few clouds and mist, and at the end of the bamboo forest there was a stone gate. Two stone statues of the gatekeepers were holding heavy swords and their weapons were intertwined.

There were more than a dozen figures in front of the door like ants on a hot pot.

"What's going on?" Mu Yaoxi pulled a person from the back row forward with a king's pull.

The other party was grabbed by the back of the neck and was about to turn around to speak. When he saw Mu Yaoxi, his face burst into laughter: "Sister Mu!"

"Who are you calling eldest sister?"

"Miss Murong, Miss Murong...there is a swordsman from Fusang outside the door blocking his way in. We are also having a headache."
