Chapter 125: Lin Shuang: I always feel like I need to cut something recently
Just when Lin Shuang was about to go back, someone from the Artisanship Commission sent a message saying that the sword that the general had previously commissioned had been forged.
She was asked if she needed it delivered directly to her residence or if she needed to pick it up herself.
Lin Shuang, who had nothing to do, of course chose to get it herself.
So, after telling Master Gongshu of the Artisanship Commission, she called for a Starskiff and rushed to the Artisanship Commission immediately.
After finding Master Gongshu, before Lin Shuang could speak, Master Gongshu immediately called her to go inside.
"You came so quickly. I knew you were reluctant to use the mechanical bird to transport it. This sword of yours is the culmination of all the work of the craftsmanship department! Come and have a look."
While speaking, Master Gongshu was quite excited and seemed quite satisfied with the sword.
"Master Gongshu, please calm down."
"Hey— I see that you are also a swordswoman; don't you have any interest in this sword? I think the kid from the Seat of Divine Foresight is crazy about swords. I thought the stronger the swordsman, the more so."
Master Gongshu looks quite old, but he has a lively personality.
Lin Shuang followed Master Gongshu to the warehouse with a bit of amusement.
After a while, she saw the big sword, which was about five feet long, in the warehouse where the swords were kept. The sword blade is about a palm wide and is mainly light green in color. The shape is simple yet exquisite, and the sword body is carved with Luofu-style patterns.
Compared to the big sword that Lin Shuang herself used, the blade of this sword was relatively thin.
Lin Shuang held the hilt of the sword with one hand, and a warm touch came from the palm of her hand. With a little effort, the sword felt heavy in her hand, but it was still wieldable for Lin Shuang.
Laugh—
The heavy sword in Lin Shuang's hand instantly turned into an afterimage, accompanied by the sound of the air being cut, and a cold light seemed to flash across the air.
Then, there was flame, extreme cold, shock, light... and even Permanence. The greatsword has excellent energy conduction capabilities and can withstand Lin Shuang's huge energy infusion.
It works!
Lin Shuang's eyes lit up. Now, she could finally ignore the greatsword that came with its own 'BGM' and be a quiet and handsome swordswoman.
Her ideal is to be like Acheron, a ruthless woman of few words, rather than someone who has to bring her own speaker every time she draws her sword and acts in an awkward and childish way.
Now! She finally has a normal primary weapon.
"It is indeed a great sword. Thank you, Master Gongshu."
"Hahaha~ No problem, no problem. As long as you can use it smoothly, it will be the best way to thank the craftsman."
Master Gongshu originally wanted to praise the exquisiteness of this sword. But after seeing Lin Shuang's swordsmanship and abilities, he gave up the idea.
A swordswoman can tell the quality of a sword by herself without any introduction from others.
Lin Shuang nodded with satisfaction and made a few more moves with the sword.
"I'll put it to good use."
For some reason, Lin Shuang suddenly had a very subtle premonition that the first person the sword would point at would be a very powerful enemy.
It's also very strange.
…
The next day.
Lin Shuang arrived at the port where the Starskiffs took off and landed according to the time agreed with Robin.
Compared to the port where the Astral Express crew boarded the Starskiffs in the game, the port here that is specifically used to handle passengers is obviously more spacious.
There is still cargo loading and unloading, but it is not the kind of cargo that involves a lot of containers.
Lin Shuang walked into the port and saw that there were far more Cloud Knight troops stationed there than usual.
Not only those who enter the Xianzhou Luofu, but also those who leave the Xianzhou Luofu, will be subject to quite strict inspection.
This is also the reason why Lin Shuang came here to wait for Robin.
When entering the Xianzhou Luofu and being inspected by the Cloud Knights, it is necessary to check personal belongings and verify identity.
At that time, the camouflage on her body would naturally have to be removed, and her racial characteristics would have to be shown to the Cloud Knights.
By then the characteristics of the Halovian race will almost certainly be recognizable to passersby.
In order to avoid causing any disturbance, Lin Shuang decided to come and pick her up.
Of course, the main reason is that today is still a day of doing nothing.
She had nothing to do, so she was just wandering around on the Xianzhou Luofu. It didn't matter where she wandered, so she just came here.
According to the expected time, it was not long into the evening.
Soon Lin Shuang recognized the spaceship that Robin was on.
A rather luxurious small spaceship, she didn't know how many passengers it could carry.
And what followed.
It was almost exactly what Lin Shuang expected.
Robin had disguised herself to avoid being recognized.
When facing the inspection of the Cloud Knights.
She had no choice but to take off her sunglasses and mask, take off her hat, take out the halo that she had put in her pocket, and put it on her head.
Then she spread out the small wings that were folded under her long hair.
The Cloud Knights, who were checking her out, seemed to have only heard of Robin's name and didn't care whether she was a big star or not.
However, some of the guests standing in front and behind Robin had already recognized her through these characteristics.
"…Is that Miss Robin?"
"Where? Shit... it's true! Didn't Robin say she was going back to Penacony? Why is she here in the Xianzhou Luofu?"
"What? Robin? Where is she?"
…
The Cloud Knights guarding the pass are probably hundreds of years old. They have never seen such a scene. When they were chasing stars, they were all super old stars from hundreds of years ago.
The passengers in front and behind seemed to be showing signs of a commotion.
They immediately clenched the longsword and smashed it hard on the ground!
Bang—!
"Keep quiet! Violators will be arrested on the spot!"
"Keep quiet!!"
The Cloud Knight soldiers around her grasped their long swords and swung them hard. The loud and intimidating slogans instantly suppressed the commotion in the crowd.
After doing all this, the Cloud Knight smiled at the Robin and said:
"Big sister, I didn't expect you to be a celebrity. This is my fault. Is there anyone to answer? Come in quickly."
Robin, who was a little intimidated by the aura of the Cloud Knight, recovered quickly.
She looked at the masked Cloud Knight sister, who flexibly switched between the identity of a warrior and a big sister, and smiled unconsciously:
"Well, someone answered it. Sorry to trouble you."
After picking up the suitcase, Robin bowed slightly, then quickly put on her mask and hat and left the checkpoint.
Robin pulled at her collar and looked around and soon found the conspicuous white hair in the crowd.
Earlier today, Lin Shuang sent her a photo of herself.
Among the Xianzhou people, white hair is quite rare.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Lin."
Lin Shuang watched the robin approaching stealthily and found it amusing.
In fact, along the way, although the people passing by did not dare to make trouble, their eyes were still following Robin.
So Lin Shuang looked around and said with a smile:
"Come with me; I'll take you to a place where no one will bother you."
