LOL Infinity: Starting from Piltover Guard

"Now that you have forging proficiency, does that mean you can now forge any equipment at will?"

Wang Yu asked meaningfully.

Song Wen thought he wanted to make equipment for himself, so he explained:

"Boss, theoretically it is true, but we also need the materials and synthesis formulas for the relevant equipment. Otherwise, it would be like a skilled cook without rice to cook."

"Originally, you have to charge labor fees for making equipment for others. This is also an unwritten rule among craftsmen. Of course, if you are a big boss and you need it, then... just forget it."

"All you need to do is prepare enough materials. But let me make it clear in advance that because you have to keep trying to figure out the synthesis formula, material loss is inevitable. My forging and casting yield rate is around 60%."

Pressured by Wang Yu's bad reputation, Song Wen gave him a discount.

However, Wang Yu waved his hand and said:

"You misunderstood. What I meant is that since crafting hero skills are also classified as equipment by the system, then if you have mastered the forging proficiency, can you also forge those crafting hero skills? For example, Gangplank's Gunpowder Keg and Nidalee's Jungle Ambush."

"This……"

Song Wen was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about it in this way.

"Maybe, it can work. Boss, your brain circuits are really novel."

"However, since equipment requires materials and synthesis formulas, then this kind of crafting hero skills should also require these."

After thinking for a while, Wang Yu said:

"With the help of the system, the recruits who have obtained the hero's skills will automatically master the synthesis formula, but they will definitely not tell you. As for the materials, they are very common after all and should be easy to get. It's just a matter of price."

"If you have these finished products of crafting skills, can you reverse-engineer them and analyze the materials needed to make them?"

After hearing this, Song Wen understood what Wang Yu meant.

This is an attempt to copy the finished product and develop a copycat version of the hero's skills.

"It's not difficult to disassemble the finished product into all its components, but I guess even the simplest device would require more than a dozen disassemblies before you can figure out the pattern, right?"

"Also, sir, let me tell you something in advance. Because these items can assist in combat, the prices of these finished products made using crafting hero skills are very expensive on the market. If you buy them and disassemble them, the cost will probably be an astronomical figure."

Wang Yu smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and a can covered with exaggerated graffiti appeared in his hand.

"Who said we should go buy some? I happen to have some ready-made here, and there's quite a lot."

"This... where did you get it from, sir?"

After Song Wen took it and examined it carefully, he found that it was a genuine Fire-Chewer grenade.

Of course, Wang Yu would not tell anyone about the embarrassing incident that happened in the Huangdao basement. He simply said casually that he had picked it up.

Song Wen felt ashamed when he heard this. Picked it up?

As for grenades, unless you have the hero skills to make them yourself or buy them, it's hard to pick up a complete, unexploded one, right?

But if someone said that Wang Yu had the heroic skill of Fire Chew Grenade, Song Wen didn't believe it.

After all, if he had it, why would he go through all the trouble of handing the finished product over to outsiders for research and production? That would be like taking off your pants to fart.

Since he didn't buy it and he doesn't have the skills, where did Wang Yu get this Fire Chewer grenade?

Song Wen was puzzled.

The Fire Chewer grenade is a trigger-type mine. When it detects someone approaching, it will automatically pop up and bite the opponent's calf tightly. After holding the opponent for a moment, it will explode in a small area.

To prevent accidental injuries, the grenade has a pin as a safety. As long as the pin is not pulled out, this thing is just a piece of iron.

The careful Song Wen discovered that the pin of the Fire Chew grenade had not been pulled out.

Could it be that this boss killed his enemy when the enemy took out a grenade but had not yet pulled out the pin?

That had to be it, because otherwise there was no way to explain why the latch was still there.

For a moment, Song Wen's heart trembled. What kind of powerful strength is this? How fast must his reaction speed be to achieve this?

Wang Yu didn't know that Song Wen had already imagined him as an inhuman monster.

After getting the Fire Chewer grenades, Wang Yu has been curious why Jinx didn't detonate them?

After all, there were quite a few people in the Huangdao basement hall at that time, and the simultaneous explosion of fifteen grenades would definitely cause considerable casualties.

As a result, Wang Yusi thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out why, and finally could only attribute it to the fact that Jinx's purpose was not to kill.

He coughed to bring Song Wen back to reality.

"Fifteen. Can we mass-produce the Fire Chewer Grenades?"

Song Wen lowered his head and checked the structure of the grenade again. After confirming that it was correct, he said:

"The structure of this grenade is very crude, very steampunk-style, not as sophisticated as Hextech. Fifteen of them should be enough."

After saying this, a surge of joy surged in his heart.

He would make money by helping Wang Yu make this thing, even if he didn't charge any labor fees.

After all, after completing the research, the synthesis formula and materials were all memorized in his mind.

In other words, Song Wen got a hero skill for free.

However, he didn't feel happy for long.

Because, what Song Wen thought of, Wang Yu also thought of.

"Well, then let's talk about the price. This thing sells for 3000 silver wheels each in the market, so the hero skill should sell for at least , right? I'll let you get a bargain. I'll sell you silver wheels for the Fire Chewer grenade skill. Is that okay?"

Song Wen was dumbfounded on the spot.

No, brother, it’s fine that I don’t ask you for labor fees, but why are you asking me for money now?

"Why? Are you unhappy?"

Seeing this, Wang Yu snatched the grenade from the other party and put it into his personal space.

"30,000 silver wheels is obviously a bargain for you. After all, this is a hero skill. You should know how hard it is to obtain. Besides, after buying this skill, you can sell ten grenades in the market and make back your investment, right? This is clearly a highly profitable business. If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who are willing to do it."

Song Wen certainly understood all these principles. He quickly grabbed Wang Yu who was about to leave and said:

"Come on, sir, that's not what I meant."

"However, you also know that the funds in the pockets of us craftsmen are very limited. In order to avoid conflicts with other recruits, we rarely do side quests. Unlike you who are rich, I can't afford such a huge amount of money as 30,000 silver wheels even if I complete an entire dungeon."

Wang Yu smiled and said,

"That's easy. I'm not an unreasonable person. If you don't have the money, just draw up a contract and pay it in installments. You decide how much the down payment is and how many installments it will be. Is that OK?"

Contracts can be established between recruits, and the terms and conditions of the contract can be freely drafted and will take effect once both parties agree.

The penalty for failure to fulfill the contract is enforced by the system, which is absolutely fair and just.

Song Wen was completely stunned, and only then did he react.

Wang Yu came well prepared, he even considered the fact that there was not enough money to draft a contract.

In desperation, he had to agree.

However, when drafting the contract, Song Wen realized it belatedly.

The content of the contract is determined by him, which means he is the initiator.

In that case, doesn't that mean he has to pay for the draft contract?
