Chapter 265: Manual Production

"You're back, young master?" Lu Qing said in a surprised expression as she looked at the hulking man entering the door again.

However, her expression turned strange looking at the woman who was bound by chains near him, her bare busy body on full display touched by the shivering air.

"Who is she?" She thought.

Lu Zhen coughed as he just expressionlessly looked at the room. There were still some burnt walls from the previous burning of the equipment.

"How is the construction of new equipment going?" Lu Zhen looked at her with a frown on his face.

"That will take some time, young master. Although we have a hundred martial artists working in tandem, it will still take more than a year for you to complete the work," Lu Qing said tentatively while looking at Lu Zhen's face. powered-by-MvLeMpYr

"Hmm." Lu Zhen frowned as he had a contemplative expression. "Make it a month. I will supply you with all the martial artists that I can find."

"How much will that be, young master?" Lu Qing replied as her face returned to a professional demeanor.

"It would be around a thousand if they were just normal martial artists. I could find a thousand; however, those well-versed in machinery and other things except for fighting are really difficult to find," Lu Zhen said with a bitter expression.

"The blueprint you have given us is really more complex than the previous one, young master. Sorry I couldn't be much of a help," Lu Qing said with some sadness reflecting on her face.

The machinery that Lu Zhen gave them to construct was from the mage books as well, which the mages had used to extract the bloodline from the otherworldly beast, creating bloodline martial artists.

Since even mages had difficulty constructing the bloodline extraction machine, and their technology was much more advanced than Lu Zhen's previous world, it was undoubtedly difficult to make the machine for bloodline extraction.

However, the martial artists could still replicate the things; although it would take time, they could still do it, which was a feat in itself.

Lu Zhen chuckled with amusement.

"You take her and make her wear a cloak or something that is unpleasant to the eyes," Lu Zhen said as he passed the chains to Lu Qing's hand.

"Yes, young master," Lu Qing said with a strange expression while looking at the naked woman.

She looked at her own chest before she looked at Xiaolong Gui's chest with a red face.

Lu Zhen just chuckled seeing this. "Let me see how much they have progressed till now. You go and make her wear some clothes and remember to be careful with her and never let her out of the chains. If she misbehaves, just tell me," he said while looking at her with a crimson gaze.

Xiaolong Gui shivered with just the gaze of Lu Zhen as she seemed to nod her head very meekly, completely contrasting from her previous demeanour.

Seeing this, Lu Zhen smirked as he went to a certain side of the wall and pressed it.

Rumble!

The entire wall split open, revealing a well-lit passageway.

"I will be going to the construction place while you take care of her first," Lu Zhen said with a little surprise.

"Did you polish the hallways?" he suddenly asked Lu Qing.

"Young master, I did. From the knowledge I have gained from you, I have been able to do many things I hadn't been able to do. Even my anatomical knowledge of the human body and other beasts has rapidly increased; now I can heal or kill people much faster," Lu Qing replied. Unknowingly, an evil smirk crept up on her face.

Lu Zhen just shook his head, seeing this. He already knew about some of her hobbies; however, Lu Zhen couldn't care less about it as long as she did her work efficiently and obediently.
