Chapter 345: Ye Wen, Qian Renxue Agree to Head to the Sun Moon Continent
"Why do you know so much about the Sun Moon Continent? Have you been there before?" Qian Renxue asked, full of curiosity.
"This?" Ye Wen thought for a moment before answering. But before he could continue, Qian Renxue added, "Oh, right, you were once a sea soul beast living in the ocean, so it wouldn't be impossible for you to swim to the Sun Moon Continent."
"Uh, heh heh." Ye Wen awkwardly smiled, not continuing the conversation on this topic.
Without realizing it, the two finally reached the first city on the Sun Moon Continent.
Carved onto the massive city walls were the words "East Sea City," located on the eastern edge of the Sun Moon Continent, a coastal city at the farthest edge.
On the way, they saw many people coming and going.
There was a large flow of people, and Ye Wen noticed that, even outside the city, there were many people and even supply inns. This undoubtedly showed that the Sun Moon Continent's security was far better than Douluo Continent's.
In Douluo Continent, the security was quite poor. While cities themselves were safe, small towns and villages near the cities provided some safety, but areas far from the cities were dangerous.
It was easy to encounter robbers or other criminals.
Therefore, in Douluo Continent, only soul masters or wealthy merchants who could afford to hire soul masters would dare to wander around. For ordinary people, travel and tourism were unrealistic. In other words, there was little mobility across the continent.
On the Sun Moon Continent, even the cities on the outskirts had such a large flow of people, proving that the security was very strong.
After entering the city, Qian Renxue was even more amazed, as East Sea City was incredibly prosperous and advanced!
On the roads, not only did they see the trains they had encountered outside, but there were also many other transport vehicles, similar to buses. In addition to these, the many other things in the city made Qian Renxue feel they were incredibly advanced, even to the point of being unbelievable.
The sense of modernity was overwhelming for Qian Renxue.
However, for Ye Wen, it was nothing special. No matter how developed the Sun Moon Continent was, when compared to the modern Earth, particularly his home country, China, it was far behind.
But it was still impressive.
"Ye Wen, are all these vehicles and the trains on the main roads soul tools?" Qian Renxue asked, shocked.
"Heh, yes, they are all soul tools. They all work on the same principle, they can be operated using soul power," Ye Wen smiled and added, "Qian Renxue, now you should understand what I meant earlier. Once the Sun Moon Continent masters the technology of soul tools, Douluo Continent will enter a period of rapid development."
"Yes, I was quite ignorant before," Qian Renxue smiled wryly, then asked, "But this East Sea City, on the Sun Moon Continent, should be considered a first-tier city, right?"
"Heh, a city on the edge of the continent, in a coastal area... Do you think it could be a first-tier city on the continent? Of course, it's possible, but the chances are low. I think this should just be a very ordinary city on the Sun Moon Continent."
"If this is considered an ordinary city..." Qian Renxue was once again shocked.
"Let's go, we'll learn more about these things later. For now, let's find a soul engineer," Ye Wen shrugged and started walking towards the city center. "Soul engineers are probably a special group, like soul masters, and quite rare. Let's head towards the more prosperous areas."
"Mm." Qian Renxue nodded and curiously asked, "Ye Wen, can you tell me more about soul engineers?"
"Sure. Soul engineers are pretty much like soul masters. They are divided into nine levels, from level 1 soul engineers to level 9 soul engineers. Of course, there are also level 10 soul engineers."
"A level 1 soul engineer corresponds to soul masters from level 11 to 19. A level 2 soul engineer corresponds to large soul masters from level 21 to 29, and so on."
"To become a soul engineer, you must first become a blacksmith, and then become a soul master. Learn the skills of blacksmithing in order to forge weapons or armor."
"After that, as a soul master, you use your soul power to carve the core of the soul tool, which is the magic array, the core magic array of the soul tool."
"These are ordinary weapons, where the key is combining the soul power with the weapon through the core magic array. You carve the core magic array by hand and combine it with the ordinary weapons made of metal and machinery to form a soul tool."
"The user only needs to infuse their soul power into the core magic array to activate the soul tool and use its power."
"If you can carve a level 1 core magic array by hand, you can say you're a level 1 soul engineer. If you can carve a level 2 core magic array, then you're a level 2 soul engineer, and so on."
"That's the general idea of soul engineers and soul tools," Ye Wen concluded.
Qian Renxue understood the gist of it: "So, if I master the core magic array and the key to carving it, even without becoming a blacksmith, I can bring the technique of the core magic array back and teach soul masters on Douluo Continent, especially those who know how to forge, to master how to create soul tools."
Ye Wen thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes, that's pretty much it."
For Qian Renxue, learning blacksmithing and becoming a blacksmith didn't interest her at all.
"Then let's hurry and find a soul engineer," Qian Renxue said, her interest piqued.
"Alright, let's go." Ye Wen smiled faintly.
The two quickly headed toward the center of the city.
Finding a soul engineer in a city wasn't difficult, as famous soul engineers were similar to well-known blacksmiths on Douluo Continent.
There would always be a large number of people seeking such soul engineers to craft their soul tools. The profession of soul engineers was far more sought after than blacksmiths. In fact, every soul engineer was very wealthy.
The economic source of a soul engineer naturally came from manufacturing and selling soul tools at high prices. Therefore, most soul engineers in cities had their own soul tool shops.
Once they found a soul tool shop, they would easily find a soul engineer.
Finding a soul engineer wasn't difficult, but in reality, the profession of soul engineers was much rarer than that of soul masters.
