Chapter 625 - Good Guy Han Fei
Chapter 625: Good Guy Han Fei
A month had passed.
Han Fei was doing refining, and You Lingyun and the others were already used to it. They didn’t know where Han Fei got so many materials, but he had been doing refining crazily for a month.
At this moment, You Lingyun and the others were whispering to each other.
Wu Xiaoxiao asked, “Isn’t our captain too rich? Refining requires not just materials but also tremendous spiritual energy. He’s been doing that for a month, and he still has money?”
Gu Daliang added, “I’ve secretly been watching him. Since a week ago, all his products have been high-quality spiritual weapons. His progress is too fast.”
You Lingyun added, “That’s probably because other people aren’t as rich as him. However, his products changed from low-quality spiritual weapons to high-quality spiritual weapons after only a month. That’s an appalling speed.”
Leng Hui nodded. “He’s truly fast.”
…
Han Fei never kept it a secret that he was learning refining! Other people thought that he spent all his vacation time buying materials and learning refining.
But actually, Han Fei bought a lot of glittering items and exchanged them with the Hexagon Starfish for treasures. At this moment, he had almost swindled the Hexagon Starfish out of all of the treasures that could be used for refining that did not glitter.
For that purpose, Han Fei had paid a bunch of high-quality spiritual stones.
Thanks to the great consumption of materials, after a month of practicing, Han Fei was holding a handful of materials that were flashing unsteady and transitioning from a high-quality spiritual weapon to an ultra-quality spiritual weapon.
Swish…
A saber aura dashed through the ceiling into the sky. You Lingyun and the others all came to Han Fei’s hut to watch it.
Leng Hui’s pupils constricted. “Is it an ultra-quality spiritual weapon? How can he be so fast?”
You Lingyun, Wu Xiaoxiao and the others were all lost for words. “He’s already made it?”
Far away, many more people sensed the saber aura and came to check.
A month earlier, when You Lingyun and the others showed their ultra-quality spiritual weapons, they had learned that the captain of the 37th squad had solid connections who could craft ultra-quality spiritual weapons.
Many of them had come to Han Fei, offering materials and asking Han Fei to help them build ultra-quality spiritual weapons.
However, Han Fei turned down all of them.
At that time, Han Fei said that his senior was too busy to forge weapons for so many people.
However, Han Fei also mentioned that he had gotten the hang of refining, and he could craft ultra-quality spiritual weapons himself after a while of practice… He promised that he would give a discount to the colleagues of the Eighth Battalion when he could craft ultra-quality spiritual weapons.
Now that Han Fei had successfully forged an ultra-quality spiritual weapon, many people came to him.
Someone asked, “You Lingyun, has your captain succeeded?”
“You Lingyun, was that an ultra-quality spiritual weapon, or was I mistaken?”
“Xiaoxiao, we’ve always been close friends. Can you say something nice for me to your captain?”
“Daliang, we’re bros, aren’t we? Can you ask your captain to build an ultra-quality spiritual weapon for me?”
“Brother Leng, well… Forget it.”
“You Lingyun, I’m not gonna lie. I’ve always appreciated your personality. Could you ask your captain to craft a sword for me?”
…
“Hu!”
Han Fei took a long breath in delight.
He wasn’t delighted because he had made an ultra-quality spiritual weapon, which was natural to him. Over the past month, he had spent more than eighty million points of spiritual energy. All his spiritual spring and the low-quality spiritual stones had been used up. Almost all the materials in Forge the Universe had been used up. How untalented must he have been if he still couldn’t craft an ultra-quality spiritual weapon?
What delighted Han Fei was that he found his control over spiritual energy was higher and higher as he practiced refining. If his control over spiritual energy was 100 before, it was at least 150 at this point.
What did higher control over spiritual energy mean? It meant that he could make use of 100 points of spiritual energy in a battle as 150 points. Although he still had a gap from peak-level Dangling Fishers in terms of maximal spiritual energy, he was a lot stronger than before!
“No wonder, no wonder… No wonder the refiners have such high star ranks! I didn’t know that refining could be so beneficial!”
Of course, while the gains were great, Han Fei had huge consumptions too.
He had used more than eighty million points of spiritual energy and crafted 1,509 weapons in total in the past month!
That number would’ve astounded many people if they learned the truth!
After all, an apprentice refiner could only craft a dozen weapons every day. Han Fei, on the other hand, made more than fifty every day on average thanks to his high spiritual power. It was a shocking number.
Also, Han Fei found that the barrier of his spiritual power seemed to be loosening.
All of a sudden, he heard whispers from below the tree hut.
Han Fei slightly spread out his perception, only to be surprised by the number of visitors.
Then, he put on a smile, knowing that it was time for him to make a fortune.
Han Fei instantly jumped off from the tree hut. “Sorry for my disturbance! I accidentally made a breakthrough in refining just now. Ultra-quality spiritual weapons are no longer a problem for me.”
“I know that you’re all eager. I too hope that everybody in the Eighth Battalion has a marvelous weapon. I promised that I would build weapons for you, and it still stands.”
Immediately, someone said, “Captain Han, I-I have the materials. I’d like to craft a long spear.”
Someone else pushed him away. “Captain Han, I can give you more spiritual energy. I only want a giant shield.”
“Get the hell out of here. I came first.”
“You get the hell out of here. This place was empty when I arrived.”
The captains of other squads joined them too. A refiner had emerged in the Eighth Battalion who could craft ultra-quality spiritual weapons! It meant that he was already as good as a two-star refiner.
However, a captain was slightly confused. “Han Fei, what are your odds of success in crafting an ultra-quality spiritual weapon?”
Han Fei said casually, “I had an epiphany today, and my odds of success are about fifty percent.”
“Hiss!”
The captain said with glowing eyes, “Fifty percent? Isn’t that something that only the three-star refiners are capable of?”
“That’s right, Captain Han! Are you sure you can do that?”
Han Fei said, “Although I believe that my odds of success can be fifty percent, that’s only if I work with full devotion and no distractions. Also, it’s quite consumptive to build ultra-quality spiritual weapons. I can only craft five of them in a day, and I must spend my other time on training.”
Someone asked with glittering eyes, “Captain, what’s your price if we want to ask you to build an ultra-quality spiritual weapon? A three-star refiner from the Refining Hall demands a hundred catties of spiritual spring and three sets of materials for a spiritual weapon… What about you, Captain Han?”
Han Fei raised his eyebrows. Are those guys really so greedy? This is really easy money!
“I’m so excited… Wait, I need to keep it together. Be cool.”
“Cough, cough!”
Han Fei frowned and retorted solemnly, “It’s so impersonal of you to say that. We’re colleagues. How can I charge that much? How about this. I’ll only ask for two sets of materials and fifty catties of spiritual spring…”
“Hiss!”
“Really?”
“Captain Han, are you serious?”
“Captain Han, we do admire you for your sense of responsibility.”
Wu Xiaoxiao shrieked, “Captain, are you crazy? If you fail, you’ll have to use your own materials.”
Gu Daliang also said, “Captain, why don’t you…”
You Lingyun urged, “Captain, isn’t that price too low?”
Han Fei secretly chuckled, as his teammates were his best helpers in the show. Was this price really low?
He would be earning a fortune from each weapon he forged without taking any risk. The price wasn’t low at all.
Han Fei glared at them and scolded them, “How can I make money from my colleagues? It’s a deal. The squads of the Eighth Battalion should help one another, and that’s my offer… Right, I have some redundant materials with me. If you don’t have materials or spiritual energy, but still want ultra-quality spiritual weapons, you can give me points. You don’t have to give all the points to me at once; you can pay by installments.”
“Hiss!”
“Seriously? We can make a purchase on credit?”
Immediately, someone said solemnly, “Captain Han, forgive me for bad mouthing you earlier. I, Wang Liang, sincerely apologize to you, Captain Han.”
Someone cupped his hands. “Captain Han, you are truly a role model to us. Whenever you need us in the future, just come to us. We won’t hesitate.”
Someone was delighted. “Captain, we can’t let you suffer losses! If your odds of success are about fifty percent, we can pay a little more spiritual energy.”
Immediately, someone glimpsed at the man. What’s wrong with you? He’s charging such a low price, yet you want to pay? Are you crazy? Is spiritual energy not money?
Suddenly, someone asked, “Captain Han, when can you seal souls? Why don’t you learn that too?”
Han Fei was hoping that someone would mention that. He said with a big smile, “I’m already learning the method to seal souls, but it’s rather difficult. Although I have some basic knowledge about it, it will take me at least a month before I can grasp it. I can seal souls for you by then with a thirty percent discount.”
Han Fei thought that those poor bastards couldn’t afford sealed souls yet. He could let them spend points on the weapons first, and after they gathered enough points, he could fool them into sealing souls and make another fortune…
“Hiss! Captain Han, a thirty percent discount?”
“Shoot! You can learn how to seal souls in a month?”
“Am I too dumb? Didn’t they say that refining is extremely difficult?”
“Captain Han, you are awesome.”
Han Fei quickly interrupted them, “Hey, you are all too kind. I’m always a man of my word, and I never go back on my promise. Okay, we have a deal now. Do any of you want me to craft a weapon?”
“Me!”
“Me too!”
“I came here first.”
“You get the hell out of here…”
You Lingyun and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. For some reason, they felt that something was wrong!
Far away on a certain tree, Zong Han, commander of the Eighth Battalion, was looking at this place. He mumbled, “Interesting…”
