Chapter 20: Tang Dao
The first day of the academy is mainly about some basic knowledge, which is very important, but also boring. After a day's class, Lu Yi began to solve the first problem that everyone needed to face to become a martial artist: weapons.
Weapons are said to be the second life for professionals, such as warriors and archers, and their attack skills require weapons to be used, and they can't fight at all without weapons. Of course, there are also classes that can attack without weapons, melee fighters, ranged mages, warlocks, word speakers, summoners. But the increase in the power of a weapon is huge, and no one will give up using a weapon just because they can attack without a weapon.
White Tiger Academy will distribute standard equipment to students, of course, these equipment need to charge a certain fee. Although there will be a fee, no one will give up this opportunity, because the standard equipment of the White Tiger Academy is forged by the forgers of the Flint Clan.
As one of the five major races in the Tianwu Continent, the Flint Clan's forging level has always far surpassed that of other races. The weapons forged by the Flint Clan in the Tianwu Continent have always been the first choice of professionals, and owning a weapon forged by the master of the Flint Clan is also the goal pursued by many professionals.
Fang Hong and the monkey did not accept the standard weapons distributed by the school, not because they wanted to save money. Instead, they chose to let the craftsmen of the Flint Clan help forge weapons according to their own ideas, although this would cost more money, but for a veteran mercenary, he naturally knew the importance of a weapon. The money that should be spent must be spent, and if you save money in these places, you may be killed when it comes time to fight.
Fang Hong and the monkey, led by Lu Yi, came to the forges of the Flint Clan. Walking into the door of the forge room, there was a wave of heat, and there were more than a dozen flint craftsmen in the forge room crafting blades.
There is no difference in appearance between the Flint Clan and the Terrans, except that these people are all very tall, and each of them is between one meter and nine to two meters tall. As a result of their long work in blacksmithing, the muscles of these craftsmen are high and hard as iron, and their skin is red in the light of the fire.
After talking to a craftsman for a few words, Lu Yi introduced him to Fang Hong and the others: "This is the Burning Stone Clan's forging master Demon Sealing Knife - Iron Heart, the ancestor of Iron Heart forged the Divine Soldier Sealing Demon Knife when the Demon Clan invaded, this Divine Soldier killed countless Demon Clans, but it was a great hero of the Demon War." ”
The surname of the Flint clan is very peculiar, they do not have a fixed surname, his surname is the name of weapons and equipment, but this is not something that can be called indiscriminately. Just like the name of the Demon Sealing Knife - Iron Heart, it is because the ancestors once forged a divine weapon Demon Sealing Knife, and future generations can use the Demon Sealing Knife as a surname.
Living in the Flint Clan, it is very simple to be respected, as long as you report your name, your name is Sealing Demon Knife - Iron Heart, people will know that your ancestors forged the Demon Sealing Knife, and they will naturally respect you. If you're called a hoe - Ironcore, then you won't be entertained. Therefore, if you want to be respected, you must either have an ancestor who forged a divine weapon, or you can forge a divine soldier yourself.
Tie Xin was obviously very useful when he heard Lu Yi's praise, and the surname of the Demon Sealing Knife has always been his pride. is picked up, naturally it is easier to talk a lot, and Lu Yi and Tie Xin also have a lot to do with it.
After inquiring about Fang Hong and the monkey's need for weapons, Tie Xin immediately began the forging, promising to come and pick up the weapons the next morning.
After saying goodbye to Tiexin, Fang Hong and the monkey came to the cafeteria leisurely with a cigarette in their mouths, and after dinner, they returned to the dormitory to copy the runes.
After careful consideration, Fang Hong chose the attack skills of straight stab, heavy slash, reverse slash, and horizontal slash, the mobile skill he chose a flash step that could quickly move his body, and the state skill chose a sword body that could increase his strength.
From a person's skill selection, it can be seen that his fighting style, Fang Hong's choice is all power-based attack skills, his fighting style is also biased towards frontal attack, and body skills are just the body method of choosing a fast lightning step and launching a close auxiliary attack.
Now that you've chosen your skills, it's time to copy runes, which is a tedious and mind-consuming task.
After Fang Hong had completely memorized a rune, he began to copy it. He slowly mobilized the energy in his body, gathered the energy to the professional roulette wheel of his dantian, and then began to use the energy to show the appearance of the runes in his memory on the roulette wheel.
Since it was the first time to depict the rune, Fang Hong was obviously still a little rusty, and there was a little problem with the direction of the rune just at the beginning, which made him have to dispel the energy for the second carving.
In one attempt after another, Fang Hong's control of energy also became more proficient, and the progress of carving runes became faster and faster, and finally after nearly a hundred failures, Fang Hong finally succeeded in carving a rune.
At this time, it was late at night, and the long time of concentration also made Fang Hong feel tired, and after smoking a cigarette, he fell asleep.
After getting up the next day, Fang Hong and the monkey did not go directly to class, but went to the forges of the Flint Clan and took the weapons that Tie Xin had promised to build for them overnight.
After the two arrived, Master Ironcore was not in the forge room, but their weapons were already on the shelves. Because it was a tailor-made weapon, the two recognized it at a glance when they saw it.
Fang Hong's weapon is a knife, this knife is three feet and two inches long, only less than two fingers wide, the blade is straight, the tip of the knife is a straight blade, and there is a blood groove on it, which is the Tang knife in Fang Hong's impression. As a man, there is no one who doesn't like cold weapons. Fang Hong in his previous life has always liked Tang Dao, but due to financial constraints, he has not bought it, and he has fulfilled his wish in this life.
The monkey's weapon was a Han sword, which was longer than the school's standard weapon, with a four-sided sword, a thin, narrow and long sword body and a sharp edge.
Although the two of them had also come into contact with the blade when they were in the mercenary group, it was not their own, and now they were excited to hold the blade tailored for themselves.
After getting the blade, the two did not go to the martial arts classroom, but came to the martial arts arena, which was also Lu Yi's arrangement yesterday, to teach the students in the playground.
When the two of them arrived at the martial arts arena, the students had already gathered, and everyone was holding the standard weapons distributed yesterday in their hands, and they couldn't help but admire when they saw the weapons in the hands of Fang Hong and the monkey. It's really handsome, whether it's Fang Hong's Tang knife or the Han sword in the monkey's hand, it's the same weapon that killed the classmates in seconds in terms of appearance.
