Throne of Vientiane Civilization

Zhou Xu was very clear about the work process of the Forging Department. Before getting it to him, the Forging Department must have completed preliminary testing.

In other words, the basic performance of this Mitsubishi short spear must be flawless.

But now there is a test that the Forging Department cannot do, and that is the test of the mantra's effect!

After all, he has not handed over the modified enchantment mantra to the enchantment department yet.

Without any delay, the enchanting mantra was quickly added. After completing this step, it was obviously inappropriate to conduct subsequent tests in the courtyard of his palace. He planned to transfer directly to the slaughterhouse in the Salt Lake area.

"By the way, bring the blood-drinking sword with you."

Riding on their fast horses, the group quickly arrived at their destination smoothly.

This time, the person responsible for cooperating with them in the test was the large white pig provided by the pig farm.

This batch of large white pigs was originally ready for slaughter. Today, Black Moon City consumes a lot of pork every day.

Now, in order to test the Mitsubishi Short Spear, they have to do the pig slaughtering for them.

Given that the test required multiple attacks, they didn't choose to give the pigs a one-hit kill.

Although Zhou Xu is not a psychopath with a habit of killing, he is not a living virgin who would argue with the inhumanity of such a pig killer.

The whole test went very smoothly. The penetration and blood-letting capabilities of the Mitsubishi short spear fully met his expectations. The results were basically within his expectations, and it did not bring him any surprises.

However, the effect of the blood-drinking sword during the test brought him surprise.

"Wait a minute, throw another pig over."

Because the size and weight of the blood-drinking sword are too large and heavy for humans and elves, they are unable to wield the blood-drinking sword for this test.

This can only be tested by holding the blood-drinking machete in place and then throwing the pig towards the blade.

During the whole process, Zhou Xu put his hand on the handle of the knife, sensing the changes in the energy inside the blood-drinking sword, and then showed a hint of surprise.

"What's going on? How come this blood-drinking sword can absorb energy so much more efficiently than the Mitsubishi short spear?"

If the energy absorption range and efficiency of the Mitsubishi short spear is 30%, then the blood-drinking sword has at least 50%. The gap of 20% in the middle is enough to make Zhou Xu feel shocked.

This discovery made Zhou Xu directly re-study the enchanting mantras on the blood-drinking sword and Mitsubishi short spear in the slaughterhouse.

"There is no problem with enchantment. The effect of 'drinking blood' is exactly the same. The problem is..."

While muttering to himself, Zhou Xu's eyes fell on the huge blade of the blood-drinking sword.

Due to the 'blood-drinking' effect, not a trace of blood can be seen on the sword at this time. However, the entire blood-drinking sword exudes a ferocious and murderous aura!

This was definitely not his imagination. At first he thought it was caused by the enchantment effect of 'blood drinking'.

But this conjecture has now been verified. The Mitsubishi short spear that was also enchanted with 'blood drinking' did not have this effect.

"Is it a matter of material? Or is it the blessing of some kind of skill?"

Long before, after he had studied and understood the enchanting mantra on the blood-drinking sword, Zhou Xu began to think about how to deal with the sword, but he never made up his mind.

Earlier, he and Yalvite were talking about half a person and half a blood-drinking sword. Naturally, they melted it directly to see if they could get any materials to forge weapons for their fierce generals and improve their combat capabilities. Strength or something.

But now what he got was a complete weapon, so he had to consider the value of the weapon itself.

The blood-drinking sword itself was obviously not the product of the green skins. It should have been obtained by the green skins from other places.

Upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to see that its forging skills are quite exquisite. I am afraid it is not an enchanted weapon passed down from the old civilization. Even as an enchanted weapon, it is extraordinary!

What Zhou Xu is now confused about is whether the increase comes from the material itself or whether the craftsman who forged it used some special means.

If it is the latter, his fusion is equivalent to destroying an enchanted weapon that is quite rare in this era, and its own value will also be greatly reduced.

"Li Gan, what do you think?"

Zhou Xu casually asked the question to Li Gan, mainly because he wanted to hear his thoughts.

This was the first time Li Gan encountered this kind of thing. After thinking about it for a while, he said bluntly...

"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to Wei Chen's opinion, even if a weapon of this size and weight is kept, no one can use it. Melting it may greatly reduce its value, but the raw materials obtained after smelting can be used to some extent. It’s better for us to produce some value than to put it there and have no use at all.”

Li Gan's words are undoubtedly reasonable, and they also represent the thoughts of many people.

But Zhou Xu's view of this blood-drinking sword was different at this time.

The key point now is whether he should squeeze out the last value of this blood-drinking sword and use it for himself, or retain its maximum value and wait for its appreciation in the future.

After all, just because it doesn’t come in handy now doesn’t mean it won’t come in handy in the future.

Not to mention that even if they don't use it themselves, in the process of contacting other forces in the future, this special blood-drinking sword may become a bargaining chip in their hands in exchange for greater benefits.

Zhou Xu pondered over this choice for about half a minute and finally made a decision.

"Forget it, put it away first!"

Zhou Xu's current thinking is very simple. Does their Great Zhou lack a few weapons now?

Obviously, he does not lack them.

In this case, instead of killing the goose to get the eggs, it is better to bet on its appreciation in the future!

The most important thing is that this is a bet to protect the capital! This blood-drinking broadsword is in his hand anyway, and there is no possibility of losing it.

Taking the first three-pointed short spear forged by Li Gan, Zhou Xu returned to the palace. After putting the blood-drinking broadsword away properly, the first thing he did was to summon Zhou Chongshan who was in the grassland, and also summoned Jie Liancheng who was also in Black Moon City into the palace.

"That's it. The three-pointed short spear, with the enchantment of 'drinking blood', does not have much slashing ability. The attack mode is mainly stabbing. Let's think about how to come up with a set of training programs, and at the same time, how to match this weapon and which troops to assign it to."

Adding a new weapon to the army is obviously not something that can be done by just talking.

This is also the main reason why Zhou Xu called Zhou Chongshan.

As everyone knows, Zhou Chongshan is a 'weapon master', and he has a strong sensitivity to various weapons!

As for Jie Liancheng, it was really a by-product, anyway, he was free...
