In the backyard of the King's Sledgehammer Hotel, a five-meter-high smelting furnace rises from the ground. The flames in the furnace were blazing, and Silverwing hated the heat, so he hid in his room; White Feather flew curiously around the stove. Kester and Hammer were standing by the hearth, and they were whispering something.

"Xiao Ye, remember, forging is not about knocking around with a hammer and knocking the forging material into the shape you want, it requires you to put in a lot of effort, and all this needs you to slowly understand." Hammer said solemnly.

"Yes, I see, Grandpa Hammer." Kester nodded respectfully.

"Your earth-based core is a great way to craft armor, and while it may be a little lower in quality, I can help you improve it through our forging skills. If you want to do it, you have to watch it! Hammer's expression was solemn.

"Hmm!" Kester certainly won't miss such a wonderful forge! The seventh-order magic core is not often obtained, with Kester's current strength, if he encounters a speed-type seventh-order demonic beast, he doesn't know who will kill the deer.

Although Hammer's signature forging gear is the oversized hammer, he is cautious about changing to a small hammer when faced with a magic core. The hammer wrapped the traveler's scorpion core in the broken beast skin, then picked up the hammer and gestured at it, turned to Kester and said, "I need a buffer medium, if this monster skin is of little use to you, it would be great to use it for protection." ”

Kester nodded without hesitation, from the beginning he had only gotten this monster skin because he needed a zero-hour package, and he didn't feel sorry for ruining it.

Seeing that Kester agreed, the hammer stopped talking, but picked up the hammer in a rather peculiar posture and gently struck it at the magic core wrapped in a ball of rice dumplings.

Kester watched the hammer move with bated breath, the first time he had seen the forge up close, and he couldn't miss a single detail, both from a curiosity or a point of learning.

The hammer was light at first, but the attentive Kester noticed that each of his hammers was a little heavier than the previous one. Until the 100th hammer, it seems that it has passed the tentative period, the range of action of the iron hammer is getting bigger and bigger, the rise and fall of the small hammer is getting faster and faster, and the hammer surface is smashed on the "magic core zongzi", making a dull "tom tom" sound. It's hard to imagine that the hammer, which seemed to be old and decrepit before, could burst out with such a great power after it began to be forged!

"No, it's not all Grandpa Hammer's strength, he also applied the same trick I told him before!" Kester observed for a long time, and finally saw some clues in the standing posture and waist movement of the hammer: "The dwarve's waist is thicker, which is very suitable for twisting and exerting force to hammer forging, which is why the dwarven forge far more than the rest of the race, and the dwarves prefer hammer weapons." Grandpa Hammer obviously used his waist force to drive the rebound of the hammer, and perfected my previous rounding action of knocking stones in a more optimized way! ”

In fact, the hammer has his own unique method, otherwise with his non-vindictive physique, it would be a problem to carry the oversized hammer. But after being inspired by Kester yesterday, he improved his existing force application method and perfectly applied Kester's principle of flexibility to forging.

"Phew!" When the 300th hammer fell, the hammer finally ran out of strength. He put down the hammer weakly: "Hey, it's really old, my old bones..."

"Oh my God! Grandpa Hammer, you say that, those young people who bask in the sun and mix their days will definitely be ashamed. Kester was dumbfounded! The three hundred hammers of the iron hammer fell almost evenly on all surfaces of the "zongzi", and one hammer was heavier than the other! If it weren't for Kester's own eyes, he would hardly have dared to imagine that the magic core zongzi in front of him, which had been smashed one size smaller, was actually the masterpiece of the hammer.

Iron Hammer smiled weakly: "I have already helped you improve the quality of the demon core, with my ability, I can only do this, and I will leave the rest to you." ”

Kester opened the already tattered Monster skin dumpling, and a scene appeared to his surprise. He found that the Traveler Scorpion Demon Core, which was originally the size of a fist wrapped inside, had been compressed to the size of an egg, and the original color of the Demon Core was only a thin pale yellow, but now it had been condensed into a rich earth color.

The quality of the magic core is one of the most important issues for forgers, and as we all know, the higher the level of the magic core, the better the attributes. However, in the case of the same level, the larger the magic core, the smaller the use value. Because most of the large magic cores are produced from large demonic beasts, if they are used on big things like siege vehicles, they are naturally much stronger than the magic cores of small demonic beasts, but they are often not condensed enough when used to forge weapons or armor. One of Master Ronnie's legendary feats is the invention of the method of compressing the magic core, making the energy of the magic core more dense, so as to improve the condensation of the attributes after forging into equipment.

Originally, the Traveler Scorpion's core was best suited for building large charging vehicles, but after being compressed by the hammer, it has become more suitable for small vehicles. Although it is still not worthy of the armor, it is much more suitable than before.

Kester naturally secretly memorized the hammer's technique, but he didn't have that much time to compress the magic core again, after all, it was getting closer and closer to Susan's next seal loosening, and he needed to create a light armor as soon as possible.

The hammer seemed to see Kester's thoughts: "Xiaoye, I don't have any very high-grade materials here, but there are some low-quality thick soil sand in this smelting furnace that I got half a year ago, and I have already refined them twice, so I'll leave them to you now." ”

Thick soil sand is a very common material, and Kester has also heard of it. Its active ingredient content is often very low, but after refining again and again, the purity is improved, and thick soil sand can also become a very good forging material. Compared to other materials, it is highly tolerant and less prone to forging accidents, so it is one of the few basic materials that is loved by everyone from a forging apprentice to a master blacksmith.

Kester was about to excuse himself, but Hammer's words dispelled his politeness: "This is not for nothing, with it, no matter what you say, you can kill two more bastards of the Shadow Church, this can be regarded as my unreasonable request to you!" Actually, you could have left it untouched. ”

"What is that? I wasn't going to back down! Kester said righteously.

"Then please..."Iron Hammer nodded: "Thick soil sand is not suitable as the main material for forging armor, but your magic core is originally an earth demon core, so it is enough to stabilize the structural characteristics of thick earth sand, what you have to do is to keep pounding the thick soil sand in the furnace that is already in a semi-molten state, and beat them into something similar to paste, sorry this is what I should have done, people are old, and this skill is really wasted..."
