Chapter 232 The Rock Cluster Regains Its Glory
Zhenhai, who had exhausted all his strength but still couldn't pull out the spear, immediately lowered his hand in dejection when he heard Xu Ning say "mistake".
"I'm sorry, Lord Xu Ning, I'm really useless."
Xu Ning was taken aback, then burst into laughter: "I wasn't talking about you. That shot of yours was really sharp. You must have been training a lot, right?"
Speaking of physical exercise, Zhenhai immediately perked up and said, "I have been exercising all along. After work, I also specifically look for some manual labor jobs to do. After all, my cousin said that a strong man is more attractive..."
Xu Ning nodded in agreement.
Then he said, "The mistake I mentioned earlier was that you left that axe spear in the Jade Pavilion, and now we lack a weapon that can be used as a reference."
Zhenhai said, "My lord, I know my own actions. Even if I were using a white-tasseled spear, and even if I used all my strength, I could only penetrate three to five centimeters at most. It's impossible for it to penetrate this deep."
Xu Ning nodded, reached out and pulled the spear from the rock wall, handing it to Zhenhai.
"I remember there are a few ice-type slimes in the lotus pond over there. Why don't you take them and try them out with the gun!"
Zhenhai took the spear and was about to go over.
Just as Xu Ning reached out and pulled the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword from the ground, Zhenhai suddenly turned around.
"My lord, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but when you drew your greatsword just now, I felt that the spear in my hand suddenly became lighter."
"Is there such a thing?"
Xu Ning tossed aside the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword in his hand. "And now?"
Zhenhai carefully examined it and said, "It has indeed become a bit heavier."
Xu Ning picked up the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword, and Zhenhai repeatedly picked up and put down the spear. He could indeed feel the changes in the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword.
Zhenhai, being a Teyvat, couldn't see the attributes of the Thousand Rock Spear in his hand, but Xu Ning could see them clearly.
He turned his attention to the additional attributes, as both the Thousand Rock Ancient Sword and the Thousand Rock Spear possessed the attribute "Thousand Rock Technique: Unity".
For every Liyue native in the party, the person equipped with this weapon will receive an increase in attack power and critical hit rate.
"What if an army of thousands or tens of thousands of people were all equipped with the Thousand Rocks series of weapons? Although the attributes can only be enhanced up to four times, these are weapons that can instantly boost the combat power of everyone. Even if only four people remain, they can still share the full power of these god-level weapons!"
Xu Ning looked at the two weapons in his hands and finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The glory of the once mighty Thousand Rocks Guild, which had been dormant for many years, is about to be restored in my hands.
Two days later, in the reception room of Yuehai Pavilion.
Uncle Tian held up his teacup and pointed to the two long boxes on the table.
"Xu Ning brought this, everyone take a look!"
Several burly middle-aged men immediately surrounded the Thousand Rocks Spear.
Only an elderly man with gray hair walked to the box containing the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword and gently stroked the spine of the sword.
"I never imagined that I, Old Xing, would be able to see the Thousand Rock Ancient Sword radiating such power at my advanced age."
The men over there picked up the spears and started playing with them.
"Old Jin, aren't you always showing off your collection of some kind of magical armor? How about you wear it and let me poke you with a spear?"
"Bullshit, do you think I'm stupid? Back in the day, the Thousand Rocks Gang couldn't even stand up against the city walls, let alone wear precious armor. Who would dare to stand still and take a hit!"
The old man asked Uncle Tian, "What are Xu Ning's requirements for bringing this?"
Uncle Tian sneered, "Don't you know him? I'd be happy if he really had a request. He'd tell me to show you this, and ideally, lend you a hundred or two people for an experiment, then return it to you when he's done."
Old Xing said in surprise, "What use is equipping one or two hundred people? You need at least several thousand to become a fighting force."
Uncle Tian sighed, "But there has to be something to make it work."
"When the Thousand Rocks were formed, both the bedrock of Liyue and the rock pillars of Lone Cloud Pavilion contained the divine power of the Emperor, which could be sharpened into blades. Now, the divine power in the bedrock of Liyue is less than one-tenth of what it used to be. As for the rock pillars of Lone Cloud Pavilion, according to that Great Sage, they have been tainted by the power of the Demon God for many years, and improper use of them would be harmful."
A middle-aged general chuckled, "Aren't there still several thousand in stock? Send them to Xu Ning one by one so he can repair them..."
Uncle Tian's eyes widened, and he said, "And then you scared that kid so much that he ran away from Liyue? Let me tell you, you made him a repairman, and Xu Ning actually did something like running away!"
The middle-aged man chuckled, "Then let's find someone else who can fix it? Who else is proficient in this?"
Uncle Tian said quietly, "Tianquan Ningguang."
The middle-aged man cursed, "What's the point of saying anything? So it's all been monopolized by that young couple!"
Old Xing stroked his beard and whispered to Uncle Tian, "I remember that in the Yun family's descendant branch, wasn't there also someone..."
Uncle Tian shook his head with a wry smile, pointed to the sky, and said, "That person is watching over us; we can't move!"
"Fine, that's how it is. I don't care what methods you come up with. Whoever can get the weapons from Xu Ning gets them. Whoever has the most weapons will be the new Thousand Rock Regiment."
"Let's break up!"
Master Mao of Wanmintang hadn't seen Xu Ning at breakfast for a long time.
"It's rare to see you come to eat so early."
Xu Ning, while biting into a steamed bun, replied, "Something came up."
There is indeed something going on.
Uncle Tian said that everyone had been gathered and was still at the place on Tianheng Mountain where he used to be an instructor, and that he should go and receive them in the morning.
"Damn, these garrison troops don't usually have any missions? How come they have enough men so quickly?"
Xu Ning thought to himself, "This is too much. I haven't done anything for days and have only repaired a dozen or so Thousand Rock Spears. Now they're giving them to two hundred people to play with, ten people per spear?"
"We need to think of a way to get them practicing first."
Half an hour later.
"What's the point of practicing like this?!"
Xu Ning was so angry that he almost smashed the wine gourd.
Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Xu Ning roared, "There must be at least two thousand people, right? Is this the number of people you counted based on the weapons in the warehouse? Are you trying to work your father to death?"
"Ji" stood in front of a group and laughed, "Boss, our general said that apart from us, there is no one else in Liyue who can fight. You can send everyone else back. Our men are enough."
As soon as the word "halberd" was uttered, a short, stocky, and fierce-looking man stepped out from another group.
"You're talking nonsense! Do you dare come and fight me?"
