Chapter 105: Invitation

Metal-to-metal collides, shaking the air. The change of the severity of each percussion eventually becomes the ups and downs of the percussion sound, the change of processing angle, the change of processing steps, and every trace of change brings a new tone and timbre to the percussion sound in the air.

This is a symphony that only those who are accustomed to holding a hammer can appreciate.

Master Niels was the first to be intoxicated by this voice, and although he had seen Mr. Copperbeard's craftsmanship and seen that even Reslyn's magic steel would become tame in Mr. Copperbeard's hands, he did not expect that even Cold Iron would obediently follow Mr. Copperbeard's hammer and dance to his will.

And this voice also made Master Gaspar excited, he carefully discerned every trace of change in the voice, and silently reproduced in his mind every movement that happened more than a dozen miles away.

The thick and powerful percussion sound represents the skill of the operator, at least most of the masters in the guild can't make the cold iron produce such crisp and orderly syllables.

Today's magical experience even reminded the old man of a moment in his memory.

At that time, Master Gaspar was still young, a senior apprentice in the royal workshop, but he had also heard the music of the clash of cold iron and hammer during a visit. At that time, Master Gaspar heard a more powerful and precise percussion.

However, Master Gaspar also understood that although the voice in front of him was green and rough, it might not be able to surpass the level of the master at that time over time.

Master Gaspar was now full of curiosity, and he was anxious to know: who was this mysterious Mr. Brass Beard, and where did he come up with such a great skill?

Unbeknownst to the inner workings of the bystanders in the distance, Given's concentration was on the hard work. Cold Iron was much tougher than he thought, and it took almost all of his patience and strength to get Cold Iron to form a specific shape. After many taps, Givens was able to finish most of the process, and now, only the last few steps remained.

Givens paused slightly and put on a new tool.

The rhythmic percussion finally stopped, replaced by a strange metallic twisting sound.

Master Gaspar and Master Niels looked at Givin and the workbench in front of him, trying to figure out what was going on. But the obstruction of those tools and materials makes it impossible to see the movements on the workbench. Even from the sound, I couldn't guess what was going on on the workbench. In the end, they could only wait anxiously for Given's performance to be revealed.

After a few moments, all the sound finally stopped.

Givens put down the tools, and he looked at the finished product on the workbench with a sigh of relief. Although it is not perfect, at least everything he wants to express is poured into this small cold iron work. By this time, he was finally able to say out loud, "I'm done." ”

Master Niels was the first to rush to the front of the stage, and as soon as his eyes touched the workbench in front of Givin, he was there, but after a moment, he couldn't help but smile.

Master Gaspar, who was walking behind, looked at Niels in bewilderment, but when he walked to the workbench, he understood why Master Niels had such an expression.

The hard cold iron is forged into evenly slender strips, and then wound around in a unique arc to form an exquisite structure that blends order and sleekness.

In the trade union, this special structure is called the Magic Ring, and in Geevin's world, people call it a spring.

Over the years, more than one elven craftsman discovered the properties of the metal magic ring structure, and they used it to build many elaborate instruments. While ordinary elves may not have seen such magical metal artifacts, for an experienced blacksmith, he must have seen a magic ring. However, most elven craftsmen regard the materials used to make the magic ring as a secret that must never be revealed. So even if you know the appearance, it is not easy to make a high-performance magic ring.

Given's creation of a small magic ring would have been a mundane affair for a blacksmith, but the material used by Given's use of cold iron was destined to attract the attention of countless people.

Master Gaspar picked up the small magic ring with his hand and pressed it hard with his fingers. The magic ring was slightly shortened by a point, and although the change in length was barely noticeable to the naked eye, Master Gaspar knew that the magic ring was indeed shortened by one point.

This means that the Iron Ring has excellent elasticity! This is a surprising discovery, because Iron is scarce and precious, and it is so hard and strong that it is difficult to bend, no one has tried to make a magic ring out of Cold Iron. At least in the published literature, no one has left a relevant explanation or record.

And today, in just a short period of time, the middle-aged man named Copperbeard made a magic ring made of cold iron alone!

Given, looking at the expressions of Master Niels and Master Gaspar, realized that his adventure had succeeded. In the rush just now, the idea of making a spring popped into Jiwen's mind, and such a work that has nothing to do with crystal disks should be able to dispel the doubts of outsiders.

Not only that, but both masters were shocked by the spring made of cold iron. To make this spring, Givens had to bend the hard bars of cold iron countless times. Any master blacksmith can understand the difficulty of the process by scanning the spring at a glance.

While the two blacksmiths were still evaluating the work, the rest of the audience soon gathered around, although they didn't know how to make iron and couldn't understand the mysteries. But the unique beauty of the spring structure at least gave them a vague feeling that this piece should be a rare masterpiece.

The audience discussed with each other in low voices, and now most of them had forgotten that the cause of the performance was that Mr. Copperbeard wanted to explain why he had bought the cold iron.

Given, watching Master Gaspar immersed himself in admiring the cold iron spring, couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Master Gaspar, you now understand why I bought Cold Iron, do you?"

Master Gaspar turned his head indifferently, he didn't pretend to be reserved for the sake of his identity, he wasn't angry that he was disturbed to watch, he just asked him in a barely audible voice.

"You should have known Niels before, and there should be some little secrets between the two of you. ”

This time it was Jiwen's turn to be speechless for a while, and the old elf actually guessed the truth directly.

"The second-hand dealer's appearance in the Flame Forge already says the whole thing, because even if you really bought the cold iron, then why did you want to trade it in this place. ”

Givens thought for a moment and struggled to piece together a reason.

"I'm not familiar with cold iron, so I want to ask Master Niels to see the authenticity of the materials before trading. ”

"Don't make excuses, you're so skilful in the Flame Forge corridor, and you don't hesitate to use the tools here, it doesn't feel like you're walking into the workshop for the first time. ”

This sudden question made Jiwen speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

At this time, Master Gaspar straightened his face and continued to whisper: "I can keep the matter between you and Niels a secret for you, but I have one condition. ”

"Speak. ”

"I would like to invite Mr. Copperbeard to join the Guild, which brings together the country's most famous blacksmiths and crystal disc artists, as well as countless predecessors who have discovered the secrets of their craft. I think you'll love it. ”
