The King's Avatar: Become Stronger After Being Rejected, Don't Agree!

Chapter 46 [Phoenix Perches]

Tang Rou slowly opened her eyes, turned off the buzzing alarm clock in her ear, yawned slightly, didn't stay in bed, put on her slippers and went to the bathroom. After a quick wash, she tidied her hair.

Just a little bit more! We can make it!

Looking at the half-finished product in her hand, Tang Rou nodded in satisfaction and began to knit the sweater.

The hands that were so adept at playing the piano and achieving glory were somewhat clumsy when knitting a sweater. Tang Rou was completely focused as she worked through each stitch.

"I remember the invoice—hmm? Tang's awake?" Chen Guo cheerfully pushed open the half-closed door. Tang Rou was startled and quickly tried to hide what she was holding: "Ah, she's awake—she's awake!"

"What are you hiding?" Chen Guo asked curiously, wanting to take a look.

"without----"

"Oh, right, it's the sweater you knitted for Xiaochen!" Chen Guo laughed heartily.

Tang Rou couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes, which instantly filled with confusion: "Huh?"

"You've been so engrossed in playing Honor of Kings these past few days, always all lovey-dovey with Xiao Chen, and you only come home to sleep in the mornings. I've been carrying all your packages, and we haven't gone shopping together in ages—" Chen Guo's voice carried a hint of resentment.

Tang Rou was stunned for a moment. Indeed, these days she had only been focused on Glory and Xiao Chen, and subconsciously neglected her best friend.

"Haha, just kidding! You keep knitting, I'm going to get the order slips." Chen Guo waved her hand with a smile.

"Boss lady!" Tang Rou suddenly said seriously.

"Huh—ah?" Startled by the sudden address, Chen Guo looked blankly at her best friend: "Wh-what's wrong?"

"I need to take the afternoon off!" Tang Rou said firmly.

"Okay, okay—" Chen Guo nodded: "You can switch with whoever you want later, but why did you suddenly ask for leave?"

"Let's go shopping together!" Tang Rou smiled and put her arm around Chen Guo's shoulder.

Chen Guo paused for a moment, then smiled broadly: "Okay! No Xiao Chen involved!"

"No!"

"Hmm? Sister Xiaorou and Sister Chen went shopping?" Lu Chen glanced at his phone. "They said they didn't need to cook today, they're eating out—"

"Going shopping—" Ye Xiu suddenly paused, startled, and a hint of lingering fear flickered in his eyes—

Si: "Xiao Chen, how do you usually shop?"

"Um, open Taobao, then scroll down the homepage—" Lu Chen smiled sheepishly.

Ye Xiu gave a thumbs up: "Great minds think alike!"

"Right!"

Since it was just the two of them eating, Lu Chen didn't bother with any fancy posing. He simply made a bowl of noodles, ate it casually with Ye Xiu, and then headed downstairs to Happy Internet Cafe.

Finding a place for two to sit, Lu Chen opened Glory. Perfect, since Sister Xiaorou wasn't here today, he could quickly get things done.

Lu Chen opened the Silver Weapon Editor and processed the materials he had stolen from Tiny Herb over the past few days, piece by piece, and then slowly pieced them together.

Ye Xiu had just pulled two small monsters, greeted Baozi, and turned to ask Lu Chen if he was coming when he saw what Lu Chen was doing.

He didn't disturb Lu Chen, but told Baozi that he would be leaving the game running for a while, and then watched from the side.

This design—it really is a spear!

Ye Xiu observed it with great interest, but the more he looked, the more he felt that something was not quite right.

This material processing method is almost exactly the same as that used for Que Xie?

Ye Xiu's expression became focused as he carefully observed Lu Chen's movements.

The more Ye Xiu looked, the more bewildered he felt. Just as he had said before, he did have some insights into spear-type silver weapons. These insights came from his long-term use of the spear-type weapon, his occasional conversations with Guan Rongfei, the head of the silver weapon department, and—his deceased friend.

The illusion from before recurred; the young man with the sun-kissed hair seemed to be sitting right in front of him.

After making revisions, occasionally pondering, and experiencing moments of delightful inspiration, a uniquely shaped but extremely beautiful spear appeared in the Silver Weapon Editor.

"It should be about right, right?" Lu Chen pondered.

"There shouldn't be any oversights, right?" Su Muqiu stroked his chin. "It doesn't seem like there are, but it seems a little too smooth? Perhaps we should check again."

"After Brother Ye finishes his match, let Brother Ye—huh? Brother Ye? Brother Ye!" Lu Chen waved his hand in front of Ye Xiu.

"Ah—ah?" Ye Xiu came back to his senses.

"Brother Ye was just now—" Lu Chen thought for a moment, "...watching the whole time?"

"Um, yes—Xiao Chen, you—" Ye Xiu hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "You—"

"Huh?" Lu Chen blinked, looking at Ye Xiu in front of him with some confusion.

"Never mind, it's nothing." Ye Xiu shook his head with a wry smile, wondering what nonsense he was thinking. "Um, Xiao Chen, who did you learn your material processing techniques from?"

Although they appear very different on the surface, each Silver Weapon developer actually has their own production process, and according to them, even slight differences in these processes can lead to production failure.

Therefore, it's best to follow all the notes left by the former designer who created this Silver Warrior, including how many times he went to the bathroom, what he ate, and whether or not he needed to knock the main unit down.

"Uh, I didn't really learn from anyone, did I?" Lu Chen scratched his head, thought for a moment, and then said, "Hmm, self-taught?"

Is it okay to be self-taught?

Ye Xiu smiled.

"Brother Ye, do you think this spear will work?" Lu Chen asked, somewhat conflicted.

"I don't see anything wrong." Ye Xiu glanced at the spear. "How about we try generating it directly?"

"Give it a try!" Lu Chen took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and pressed the button directly.

A silvery light swept upwards until it shimmered at the tip of the spear.

"It's done!" Lu Chen smiled happily. On the left side of the spear, a golden lettering appeared.

Silver weapon, spear [Phoenix Perch].

[Tsk tsk tsk, just this pose alone would take that guy next to me hundreds of years to learn—] Su Muqiu exclaimed: [Xiao Chen, your aesthetic sense is always on point!]

White and pink patterns coiled around the spearhead, and a phoenix was carved on the spearhead with a few simple strokes. The overall design was more delicate than the Quexie, but it complemented Tang Rou's Hanyanrou perfectly.

Ye Xiu was naturally uninterested in these things and encouraged Lu Chen to check the attributes first.

"These attributes—" A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Xiu's eyes. Compared to the same level of the Evil-Repelling Sword, it was in no way inferior, and even—in some aspects, it was even better.
