Chapter 262 - 179: Let’s Call It the Eastern Town Rod
[Random Forging Furnace] was one of the Forge Association’s treasures, kept at the association’s headquarters.
Getting to the Forge Association’s headquarters was actually quite simple. You just had to enter any branch and use the artisans’ special transport portal to get there directly.
The headquarters’ lobby was clean, bright, spacious, and grand, full of modernity. It was nothing like Zhou Yuan imagined: stuffy and noisy with shirtless musclemen everywhere hammering iron.
"I see your reservation here, but there are still two customers ahead using the Random Forging Furnace. You’ll need to wait a bit, or you could go and watch," the receptionist said with a smile.
"Let’s go watch," Chen Guangxi suggested, curious to see what those two would forge.
A girl in a flowing white cheongsam came over to lead them to the room where the Random Forging Furnace was located.
After walking for a while, they arrived at a crowded hall. There were at least three hundred people, all seats taken. Those without seats had brought their own portable stools, and some were even sitting on the floor.
Most of them were staring up at a huge LCD screen, keeping an eye on the constantly updating messages.
"What are they doing?" Zhou Yuan asked, puzzled.
The girl in the white cheongsam explained with a smile: "That big screen is where Forging Masters post bounty commissions. If they need special materials or want to assemble a team to go to an abnormal area, they post their request there. Extraordinary persons can take on the tasks they see.
