Chapter 945 Is The Guild Leader Single?
After chaos descended into the world, the typical days were short, and nights were long. This was even more so for people working tirelessly, burning the midnight oil.
On this particular day, a white fox was panting and heaving as she struggled to keep the molten metal pools around her at their ideal temperature.
Since birth, this was the hardest she has worked. The lazy fox had never put so much effort even into her training, but now her beloved master had asked her to do this. Hence she had no other option. She had to do the work.
After all, not too far away from her, her beloved master was equally working hard, pushing himself to his limits. Liam was currently on his sixth golem as he carefully manipulated the mana to create links between the six cores.
With each golem he made, he tried without fail to force his will onto the golem and somehow impart some mana skills into the golden giant, but this was easier said than done.
While the concept itself was easy enough, it was not possible to consistently force his will and, at the same time, make sure to maintain his control over mana manipulation.
So far, he was unable to make a more complicated golem and stray away from the main formula. The only consolation was that each and every single golem he made got the same upgrades the first one received and became Level 100.
While this was not an improvement, this was also quite a good outcome. The only problem was that it looked like he had now reached a barrier, and without breaking it and crossing over it, he might not be able to make any further advancements.
Time slowly ticked by, and soon the first rays of the morning sunlight hit the row of golden giants standing outside Liam's residence. Unbeknownst to the man and the fox, a small gallery had gathered to watch him create these magnificent fighting machines.
"Does this guy always has to overachieve in every single thing?" Alex enviously bit her lips. Standing next to her, both Rey and Hao Yuze had worshipping looks in their eyes.
In fact, most people in the crowd had the same type of eyes, all of them glued onto Liam, especially the women. This was the first time several of them had the chance to see him at work, that too with his upper body completely naked.
Muscles pulsed and strained as he patiently forged each and every sphere and assembled them in formation with the utmost care.
It was said that a woman found a hard-working man to be the most attractive. In this case, the man standing in front of everyone was not just hard-working but someone who held unspeakable power in his hands.
Several women swooned at the sight, making Shen Yue and a certain someone extremely uncomfortable. While Shen Yue remained silent and just continued watching from the sidelines, the redhead was not so easygoing.
"Damn it. I am just going to chase away these idiots. Don't they have any work to do?"
"Sis, aren't you also just standing here?" Rey reminded her.
"Cough. I am just standing here to make sure that no one dares to disturb that guy. I am just doing him a favor, that's all. He better thank me later." She chewed her lips and walked away.
Rey rolled his eyes and mumbled in pity. "This poor girl is completely done for. She should just propose to him already and get it over with."
"Hmmm? Is the guild leader single?"
"Uh? Not really." Rey answered, and then he suddenly turned around to see who it was because he thought he heard a familiar voice.
And it was indeed the same person, the granny or rather Master Ning as everyone called her. Wait, why did she ask if Liam was single or not?
Don't tell me… Rey started sweating. Even she…
Luckily, before his imagination could run wild, the granny scratched her chin and added. "Maybe I should ask my granddaughter to pursue the young man."
"Good luck." Rey laughed awkwardly and moved away. This crowd was way too dangerous for his self-esteem.
Finally, a couple more hours later, Liam forged the tenth golem, and another giant golden structure became erect in front of everyone, standing tall next to the others.
With this, he had continuously forged ten huge golems all in a single night. With the two from before, their guild actually had 12 total golems in their possession!
Huff… Liam tiredly sat down on the ground as the task he had planned was fully finished. He looked at the twelve golems and smiled in satisfaction.
The thing was, even if he wanted to, he did not have any more Orichalcum to forge more golems.
So it was time to move on to the next task at hand, which was to search for more of these hive hills. Who knew that the isons were a gift that kept on giving?!
The person who had triggered this change in the timeline had really done a favor to them.
"Are you fine, brother?" Mei Mei walked over with some food and water for the worn-out duo.
Luna hurriedly grabbed the tray right from her hands and started gulping down the assorted roasted meat while Liam simply pinched her cheeks. "I will take a bath and then eat later. I am filthy."
"He He. You do stink." Mei Mei giggled.
She then quickly turned to look at Shen Yue, who was still standing on the side, not wanting to disturb Liam. "Sis Yue, aren't you going to help brother take a bath?" She shouted in front of everyone, making the woman blush.
Shen Yue became bright red with her cheeks and face heating up, but she still nodded and followed behind Liam, ignoring the envious eyes staring at her.
Many women silently cursed their bad luck and left the area. It was not as if they could compete with the beauty who just walked past them. So all they could do was blame their bad luck.
Only Mei Mei grinned shamelessly, giving Shen Yue a thumbs up. "Way to go, sis! This is how you have to slay your competition!"
Shen Yue heard this and became even more embarrassed. She quickened her footsteps to get the hell out of there.
"Sis Yue is too innocent. I need to help her more." Mei Mei mumbled to Luna, but the fox couldn't be bothered to care about anything at the moment except for the plate of food in front of her. She gulped down the roasted meat like there was no tomorrow.
