Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 389

Chapter 389: 389
As an organization established before the regeneration of Spirit Qi, the Golden Foundation had a rich history of magical weapon collection and the corresponding research on their repair .
But none seemed to have mastered the techniques of weapon restoration and very few were able to even create primary weapons .
Currently, like the Heavenly Network, most organizations had adopted a tactical measure by building standard magical weapons infused with Spirit Qi-conducting metals .
However, the scientific means were incomparable to the ancient techniques, which produced weapons of much purer Spirit Qi concentration .
After the long, dark ages of Spirit Qi exhaustion, those smelting techniques devised by ancestors had almost gone extinct . As a result, people were maniacally obsessed with remains, in which numerous magical weapons were kept intact, as though sealed from the outside world .
Trading his extra resources for weapon scraps was a worthy deal for Lu Shu . The two standard swords from inexplicable sources had already been fed to the divine water, but their sub-standard forging measures failed to bring about much increase in the size of the water .
On the other hand, Li Xianyi had sent Lu Shu a total of fifty weapons scraps from the Golden Foundation and all were determined to be beyond use or repair .
As soon as Li Xianyi stepped into the safety house, Li Yixiao excused himself, saving Lu Shu the effort of hiding the matter from him…
Then, Li Xianyi frowned in concern, “Nowadays, only Practitioners keen in weapon forging are interested in these things . Why do you want them? Do you want to study forging techniques too? Of course, you don’t have to answer me . I’m just asking . “
“Just a while ago, Nie Ting killed a Class B water-type Metahuman . Are you aware of that?” Lu Shu asked in reply . Judging from the severity of the matter, the Golden Foundation had no reason to be ignorant .

Li Xianyi froze, “You have that Metahuman’s killer weapon?”
Not only was Li Xianyi aware of the matter, he also knew that the person’s killer weapon was both money and weapon consuming .
Precisely due to its expensive nature, the Class B expert had committed countless unforgivable crimes and taken too many lives, just for money and magical weapons .
But Li Xianyi was uncertain about one thing, “I heard that he fed it with first-class weapons, gained through legal or illegal means . Will it still work if you give it so many weapon scraps? That’s a killer weapon! Who knows what may happen?”
“Doesn’t matter . It’s not particular about its diet,” Lu Shu grinned . While others were concerned about affecting its growth with defective items, Lu Shu did not care at all . After all, weapon scraps were still edible .
Otherwise, he was unwilling to give away fine weapons, except for things such as the standard swords which were unsuitable to be seen in his possession .
Lu Shu did not have the guts to mention that he was planning to feed the divine water with chives…
In the old man’s presence, he gave all the scraps to the water in one shot . Every piece slowly dissolved upon contact with the all accepting divine water, until the latter regained its clarity and golden glow .
In this process, the water had doubled its size . Then, Lu Shu controlled the water to form an armor around his entire body, “It may save my life in the remains . “
Li Xianyi raised his brows in surprise . Other people’s armor was a thin shell over the body, but Lu Shu’s seemed more impressive, like a full-length down jacket… with golden light all over!
“How scared are you?!” Li Xianyi could not stand him any longer, “Are you preparing for a moon landing in your spacesuit?”

“Wouldn’t it be wasteful if I don’t use it?” Lu Shu was in high spirits, “Please think about it . The moment other people try to attack me, their magical weapons will get worn away on my divine water . Therefore, can I call myself the weapon killer?!”
Personally Lu Shu thought it was a good name…
There were side effects as well . Before long, two footprints were corroded out on the floor . Had he stood still for a while longer, he might have been able to drill a well…
Speechless, Li Xianyi left . Before that, he reminded, “Although the Golden Foundation has loads of weapon scraps, I do not own them all . However, we will give them to you at the lowest price possible if you have other things for exchange . You have my word . “
Suddenly Lu Shu felt sorry for himself . If he had known earlier, he should have gone straight to the old man the day before! Now, there was no way for a refund as both the magical weapons and the statue were gone…
Speaking of which, he took out his purple golden gourd for another look, shaking it so violently that the flying dagger was about to vomit inside!
Truth be told, Li Xianyi was curious about Lu Shu’s remaining trump cards . Despite coming from a humble background, the siblings seemed to always have luck on their side .
He was well aware that Lu Shu’s membership at the Heavenly Network would never bring him such luxurious welfare . Moreover, those petals certainly did not belong to the Network .
So, what else did he have?
This was out of pure curiosity, or even a sort of expectation . Li Xianyi had a hunch that the kid would become a great surprise to the entire world .
It was a strange but inexplicably firm feeling .
Lu Shu raised another question before Li Xianyi left, “Why is the Foundation so persistent in protecting mankind? As we all know, generally speaking, it’s a peaceful era now . No one would intentionally destroy our common home should there be a fight . That’s an agreement . “
Li Xianyi shook his head, “We are protecting our future . Humans should have the capacity to defend against disasters when they befall us one day . The Golden Foundation is not in control of Practitioners from across the world, but neither can we watch and do nothing as they undermine the future of cultivation . Mankind must aim to be more prosperous, which justifies acts of violence, a bridge to a better world . “
Lu Shu suddenly realized that it was not people that the Foundation was wary of!
As for what were the so-called disasters, Li Xianyi remained tight-lipped, the same as Chen Baili’s reaction .
But it was not of much concern for Lu Shu . To him, in times of tragedies, his only duty was to protect Lu Xiaoyu and others who had been kind to him from harm .
At this moment, a giant wave of Spirit Qi rolled towards them from the Pattaya coastline, much stronger than ever before!
Looking out at the streets through the window, Lu Shu saw Practitioners running in that direction . Many low-level Practitioners had to seize this opportunity for final training before entering the remains for leftovers!
Finally, the opening of the Pattaya remains was just around the corner, right over on the island!

Braindead - A Zombie LitRPG
In a world where zombies are trash mobs that children kill for easy exp, what hope does one little zed have? Zed was minding his own business when his master's domain was invaded by a plucky young heroine looking to make a name for herself. An unlikely turn of events allowed Zed to come out on top, and gave him enough experience to rise above the life of a mindless minion. Unfortunately, it also left him with no body to share it with... literally, not figuratively! This story contains: Some 'jokes' containing questionable humour. An inhuman MC who has no interest in pesky things like romance or growing a conscience. Blue boxes, and a DnD style system messily mashed together with several other systems. Gore, but nothing too gratuitous. The main character is a severed head so what do you expect? Kingdom/base building, because what good is a zombie without a good horde behind them. Releases planned for each Sunday until I build up a decent backlog.

The Yes-Mage
Plenty of people have stopped and asked what it'd be like to simply have everything, and Sylvain Henry Camille Johansson was no different. He was a man who had a lot of things going on, with a name that'd make a supervillain blush and a family who'd make even the useless of their rank into someone important. It was a shame, then, that he was slapped with a dreadfully unfortunate condition that kept him from living up to any of those already low expectations. Stuck living a life where magic is everywhere while he's left working with nothing more than a moderate intellect, a little bit of whatever influence he could get from his family, and a lifetime's practice at making himself the ideal subordinate for his bosses' boss, Vane was still beating the odds and slowly working his way up in the world. When the cunning yes-man finally got a chance to really make a name for himself, he leapt at the offer, taking his first real step onto a road he knew he was always meant to walk. His goal? Nothing less than finding out why he and too many other unfortunate souls are barred from the wonderful world of the higher energies, and with any luck, fixing it. Of course, life has a knack for interfering in even the humblest of plans, and Vane's lofty ideals were anything but humble; he was practically a walking bullseye for disaster. The funny thing about catastrophe, though, is that nobody can ever say what form it's going to take. That’s why, when it all went wrong for Vane, he'd gotten everything he'd ever wanted foisted onto him, and Everything else, too. Watch as a man so used to saying 'yes' to everyone above him finds himself stuck with the power to make reality itself say it back.

A Nerd's Wet Dream Come True (Tossing an OC into Marvel)
John was an average man. At least that's what he tells himself at night. He lived in a rented apartment in the decent district, a well-paying job, and more student debt than he cared to think about being steadily paid off. Yet he was absolutely miserable. He spent his days living like a zombie, a slave in all but name to corporate. His only joy these days it seems was reading comics and writing fanfics. SI ones. Choke full of power fantasies and large harems. Yeah, even he had to admit he was a loser. His only redeeming feature seemed to be his photographic memory and the library's worth of comics and books he has read. Yet, when fate took pity on him and had John transported into the Marvel Universe, he was only all too happy to oblige. A second chance to make something of himself. Is he going to finally have the comfortable life he wanted? Will he laze away relying on his past life's knowledge or does he want more this time? Will his ambition and hard work lead to sweet fruits, or will it rot away in the darkness hiding beneath the colorful costumes of the hero's society? Now with crossovers! Be warned if you don't like to see OCs messing up the timeline or DC and other stuff showing up. I swear I'm not randomly adding stuff and there is a legitimate (as far as comic books and fanfics can be) plot reason why. (I'll be honest, I don't know "cannon" marvel really... I watched some movies and animated series as a kid, but I haven't picked up a comic in years. This is just some light-hearted and casual writing for fun. If there are any errors or something you think would be cool please let me know.) I'm also trying to have multiple main characters so that might be jarring for some people while I switch perspective. Sorry in advance, I'm new at this and idk what I'm doing, advice and feedback gladly welcomed!
