Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 41 Thousand Machine Talisman, start making talismans!
"We are the first two to meet in Class 5, but why do you seem to be avoiding me on purpose?"

"I-I didn't."

"I just think that what we are doing is wrong." Xie Cangling thought for a moment and then whispered, "Xiyu will be angry if she sees this."

"Oh? Can you tell me what she would be angry about?" Duan Huaige asked with interest.

The socially anxious rich lady stopped talking. She hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't know. Anyway, I don't think it's very good."

"Xiao Xie, can you think normally?" Duan Huaige said, "Look... Jiang Xiyu and I are good friends, right?"

"Ah."

"You and Jiang Xiyu have also become good friends. There is a saying that a friend of a friend is my friend. You should have heard of this, right?"

"In other words, we are good friends now, right?"

The socially anxious rich lady was stunned.

Is this how this sentence is used?
"Hmm...right?"

"If that's the case, then why do you think Jiang Xiyu will be angry because we both have a new good friend? How can the bond of our friendship be so inconvenient?" Duan Huaige said righteously: "You really underestimate Jiang Xiyu by thinking this way!"

"Eh…?"

Xie Cangling vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this logic, but she couldn't put it into words.

"You think Jiang Xiyu will be angry when she finds out that our relationship has improved because you're worried that as our relationship gradually changes, it will take away the friendship that originally belonged to Xiao Jiang, making her feel left out and abandoned."

Duan Huaige continued to deceive: "You think my friendship power is like a glass of water. If I pour more on one side, there will definitely be less on the other side."

Xie Cangling blinked and didn't answer, but the expression on her little face betrayed her thoughts.

"But in reality, my friendship power is like a faucet. As long as we remain good friends for one more day, it will continue to flow out and will never be drained."

"..."

Well, it seems like you have been brainwashed by some magical theory?
Seeing that the effect of deception had been achieved, Duan Huaige suddenly sighed, and launched a final charge in order to retreat:

"If you really don't want to be friends with me, Xiao Xie, I can understand... It doesn't matter. I'm a person who has no girls willing to be friends with me. Jiang Xiyu is one of them. I thought we could be good friends..."

"Ugh…"

Thousands of words finally condensed into a long sigh. Xie Cangling's heart tightened slightly, and he quickly comforted her: "That's not what I meant... I meant... If classmate Jiang doesn't mind, I'd like to be friends with you." "It's a deal, don't regret it!"

Duan Huaige stretched out his finger and made a fingerprint with the girl's thumb. When their fingertips touched, Xie Cangling seemed to be a little unresponsive.

Xiao Xie felt like she was cheated, but she had no evidence.
……

After solving the subsequent task refresh problem of Xie Cangling, the social phobia, Duan Huaige generously accompanied the two girls to eat dessert and go shopping in other places. It was not until Xiao Jiang's parents began to urge her to go home that Jiang Xiyu reluctantly said goodbye to Xie Cangling.

I can't wait to bring my talent to the avenue of talismans! Duan Huaige hurried back home holding the Qianqiu pen that he had just received. The first thing he did was to take out the talisman materials that he had prepared before and start making the first talisman.

Previously, due to the lack of a suitable talisman-making pen, Duan Huaige could only practice with an ordinary brush. He used up a lot of cinnabar and yellow paper at home, but still couldn't draw a useful one.

There is no other way. The concentration of spiritual energy in the world is not high enough now, so the success rate of making talismans can only be increased by good equipment. An excellent talisman pen can not only draw spiritual power runes smoothly, but also lock the spiritual power on the carrier to the maximum extent.

In the early stage of spiritual energy recovery, the employment scope of talismans should still be very broad. After all, everyone's combat effectiveness is not very good at this time, so a small talisman can play a role of timely assistance. If it reaches the late stage when everyone can tear the stars apart with their hands and destroy the avenue, there will be no employment space for talismans.

But it’s still a long way from that time now, isn’t it?

Duan Huaige even stopped his physical training for a day, concentrating on studying one of the talismans in the Thousand Machines Scroll:
The Golden Armor Warrior Talisman can summon a golden armor warrior with equal strength to the maker to come to the aid, and the duration of the talisman is half an incense stick, which is now commonly referred to as 15 minutes.

This is a very classic talisman. As the maker's level improves, the duration and combat effectiveness of the golden armor warrior will increase accordingly.

Duan Huaige took out the spiritual grass from the mountain and river jade, and used the spiritual grass to absorb and exhale spiritual energy to temporarily make the surrounding environment reach a suitable spiritual energy concentration. Holding the Qianqiu pen in his hand, with the spiritual power injected, the tip of the pen soon bloomed with golden light.

Using cinnabar as the medium and spiritual power as ink, Duan Huaige wrote with great concentration, drawing a complete spiritual power rune channel on the paper.

Unlike the dozens of failures before, this time with the blessing of the Qianqiu Pen, Duan Huaige locked the spiritual power in the rune channel to the maximum extent, and did not let the overflowing spiritual power tear the fragile yellow paper material into pieces. A golden light flashed before his eyes, and then the spiritual rune's brilliance was completely restrained, turning into an ordinary piece of paper.

Take it!

Duan Huaige slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, and the haze of failure that had been in his mind for a long time was immediately swept away. It is true that if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. What is the point of learning talismans without good equipment!
I am indeed a genius in the world of talismans. Duan Huaige silently gave himself a thumbs up and soon began to make the next one with great interest, and also had some ideas for changes.

It's all a summoning style anyway, so why not make a slight change to the image of the summoner to make it more suitable for the physique of modern babies?
After thinking for a moment, Duan Huaige started writing again and created two different golden armor warrior talismans:

[Golden Armor Warrior Talisman·Giant of Light Version: Only with the belief in the righteous path can you summon a giant of light whose strength exceeds that of the creator to come to your aid. The duration is one-tenth of an incense stick (three minutes)]

[Golden Armor Warrior Talisman·Magical Girl Version: Only with the belief in love and peace can you summon a magical girl whose strength is far lower than the creator's but whose defense is very amazing to come to your aid. It has an additional taunting effect on tentacle monsters and lasts for one stick of incense;]

Duan Huaige looked at the evaluation of the thing he made on the system and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Is my talent a little off?
The Giant of Light is barely ok, but the Magical Girl version is a bit off.
How about asking Miss Shuangjiang to take me to the black market after the spiritual energy is revived to sell this talisman and earn some spiritual stones? If there really is such a black market.
　The second update will be before 6pm, the plot has been adjusted
