Chapter 358 Weapon Master
Lin Lee reached the seventh stage of growth at the age of seven years old; he didn’t skip the stages; instead, he completed all the previous growth stages.
At stage four he shed all his hair and teeth and regrew them as a sign of adulthood, and at stages five and six his physical internal parts reached their perfect form, and now at stage seven, he can feel unimaginable power rivaling any other giants at this stage.
"Well, even as a giant, I am really handsome, and my skin is very smooth. I should check my appearance later in the reflection."
Lin Lee muttered narcissistically and then clenched his fist tightly, feeling the power in his body with a satisfied expression on his face, and then he glanced at the marking on the stones around and added,
"Four years passed; it’s time to leave this cave and explore the outside world," Lin Lee muttered and then walked forward. He grabbed one of the stones and put it away, revealing a snow layer on the other side.
After grabbing a handful of snow, some he ate, which melted into water in his mouth; then he picked more snow and rubbed it on his whole body, cleaning up.
"As the giant physique increases in size, the hot and cold effect on their bodies reduces; probably the giant at stage twelve can ignore the chilly wind in the ice age, or maybe not."
Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully, then he put the stone back and closed the opening, walking toward the outside direction of the cave.
After removing the huge boulder at the entrance, a sunlight ray fell inside the cave.
Lin Lee felt a stinging pain in his eyes; not seeing the sunlight for the past four years, it took a while for his vision to adjust, and then he walked outside in the snow.
Looking at the surroundings with trees revealing their branches with fresh leaf buds growing on them,
Also, some snowy mountains revealed the green area above them in some parts.
"I can’t go back; they will recognize me immediately. Also, my sisters may have reached stage five; there are still some times before reaching the seventh stage. I will return after ten years in order to deal with their future."
Lin Lee muttered, looking at the Petra mountain far away, and then turned around and walked toward the opposite direction. Following the path beside the river, he heard from his father that there are a lot of giant villages located in this direction.
…
Time passed; day by day, the atmosphere became hot, and snow disappeared from the mountains and forests.
After traveling for a few days, passing through every kind of terrain and hunting the beasts on his way,
Lin Lee finally reached a suitable place for his living, looking at high-rise rock walls in front of the mountain area.
He walked forward toward the wall.
Suddenly a few giants walked outside from the large rock cabin at both corners of the wall.
"Stop there. Where are you from?" Suddenly one giant spoke, aiming a crossbow-shaped weapon toward him.
If Gladian were here, he would immediately recognize the weapon as the Sun shooting bow. Discover stories at NovelBin.Côm
’A crossbow? I didn’t expect giants to have such a weapon,’ Lin Lee thought to himself, and then his eyes lit up looking at the weapon on the guard arm, and he spoke,
"I am a scientist traveling around the world; the weapon on your arm is a crossbow, right?"
Hearing Lin Lee’s words, all of them became startled and then glanced at each other with confused expressions, and then the guard in front lowered the weapon and asked with a confused expression,
"What is a scientist? Also, this is a Sun shooting bow, not a crossbow."
Lin Lee’s mouth twitched hearing his reply, ’Crossbow and Sun shooting bow, both have bow in their name; this guy is an idiot.’
He thought and then walked forward with a smile and replied,
"Scientists are the giants who research and explain the reason behind everything through logic; also, they use the knowledge to bring ease in life."
The giants guarding in front were confused by Lin Lee’s explanation, but they didn’t care; the front guard nodded and then replied, "Okay, we understand you are a traveler from far away, but our village doesn’t welcome outsiders; you can leave."
Lin Lee raised his brow, looking at their calm and unwelcome attitude thoughtfully, and then he nodded and asked,
"Okay, can you tell me the location of nearby villages? I will go there."
The giant’s guard nodded and gestured at him, "Follow me."
Then he walked forward toward the cabin; two more giants walked behind him, and the remaining three went back to the cabin on the other side of the wall.
Lin Lee nodded, and following him, appeared inside the cabin, looking at the large cabin with chairs and beds and three shooting windows, from where the giant guard can shoot the invaders.
Lin Lee then noticed a shooting sunbow lying on the table and asked, pointing at it, "Can I see it?"
The guards were startled by his question; two guards aimed their bows toward his head and asked coldly,
"What do you want to do? As expected, you are also here to snatch our village shooting sunbow?"
Lin Lee’s heart tightened, but his expression didn’t change, and then he shook his head calmly and replied, "If I were after your weapon, I wouldn’t come unarmed or alone."
Hearing his words, the guard’s expression sank, and he wanted to say something.
"Stop it; he is not lying; he just said before he is a scientist who researches and explains everything through logic. Also, that crossbow is damaged; let him see it."
The third guard stopped the two guards calmly and then brought a scroll made from skin; he passed it to Lin Lee and said,
"Here is the map with the location of the nearby village; you can see it, but you can’t take it away."
Lin Lee glanced at the third giant with eight meters height more than the two other guards.
’This guy listened to me attentively before, didn’t ignore my words like others,’
Lin Lee thought to himself and then glanced at the other two giants lowering their weapons; he sighed in relief in his heart and then nodded toward the third guard.
"Come on, boy, hurry up, look at the map and weapon, and then leave."
The third guard instructed looking at Lin Lee and then turned around, walked toward the third window, and stood beside it, starting to look in the outside direction.
Lin Lee nodded and then opened the scroll, looking at the map made with burn marks, mountain areas around, and a few village marks in these mountains, including the Glad village he came from.
Lin Lee then glanced at the weapon; he picked it up and started observing it, ’A large bow that can be worn on the arm, and it can shoot round stones.’
Lin Lee is observing the stone-cutting and compression section, which makes the stone round, and another section makes the stone hot by instantly compressing it.
"Amazing, it can shoot hot round stones; that’s why it is called the sun-shooting bow."
Lin Lee spoke in amazement, and then he inserted the finger from the side and pulled the spring edge, connecting it to the lever. Then he wore it and then pushed the handle and clasped the lever inside.
Click!!!
Suddenly a click sound startled all three giants in the cabin.
Lin Lee then removed the bow from his arm and nodded, satisfied, putting it back on the table, and said,
"It is fixed; thank you for showing me the map. Consider the weapon repairing as a compensation."
The two giant guards who were paying attention to him were surprised hearing his comment; then they glanced at the weapon lying on the table in a daze.
Lin Lee glanced at the third giant who appeared and picked the weapon from the table; then he turned around and walked toward the outside direction of the cabin.
"Wait," Suddenly the third giant asked him to stop; Lin Lee stopped, his mouth curved a little, and then turned around, looking at the giant with a calm expression.
"How did you fix this weapon? Are you a weapon master?"
The third giant became solemn and asked; the two giants beside him also glanced at him with an anticipated gaze.
’Weapon master? Probably they are referring to the blacksmith or weapon manufacturer.
Lin Lee thought to himself and then shook his head, replying,
"No, I already said I am a scientist. I just researched your weapon and found a flaw and fixed it using logic."
The three giants were startled, and their brows furrowed. After thinking for a while, the third giant asked again, "So you mean you have watched our sun shooting bow and know everything about it, then you must be able to create the same sun shooting bow."
Lin Lee’s expression became thoughtful, and then he nodded and said, "You can say that."
"Hahaha, finally we have found the weapon master talent,"
Suddenly the third giant laughed loudly with a joyous expression, and the other two giants guarding beside him also became very excited looking at Lin Lee with a bright gaze.
