The city of Dharani used to be a lively town, and although it was small in size, it was surrounded by abundant hunting resources that brought it a lot of prosperity.

Walking on the depressed streets at this time, Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh that there are two things that are most likely to cause a large number of deaths in this world, the first is war, and the second is the plague. And the plague they encountered this time was the most special plague of the undead, and they don't know who caused this disaster?

Zhang Yang walked and looked around. He realized that there was nothing wrong with the water quality here, so what was the problem? How did people get the plague? As he walked, Zhang Yang suddenly found that a blacksmith shop on the corner of the street was still open, and an idea suddenly surged in Zhang Yang's heart, so he walked towards the blacksmith shop.

The blacksmith's shop was a small shop with a number of iron felts, and it seems that business must have been very prosperous when the city of Dharani was prosperous. However, at this time, there was only a middle-aged woman with a sad expression in the blacksmith shop, standing by the fire in a daze.

"Can I still craft weapons here?"

Zhang Yang looked at the current appearance of this blacksmith shop, and thought to himself, maybe their family had also lost some relatives by the plague, and he didn't know if there were still people who could forge weapons? That's why he asked.

"Don't you see the gate open? The fire pit is also burning! If I can't forge weapons, what am I sitting here for!? ”

Zhang Yang didn't expect that his casual question would provoke such a choking answer. But he wasn't going to get angry over such a trivial matter.

"I'm sorry, I want to build a heavier two-handed sword, I wonder if I can make it soon?"

"Humph! Forget it, how many two-handed swords do you want? We have finished two-handed swords in our shop, the heaviest one is 24 Pakri, how about you try it? ”

Hearing that Zhang Yang apologized for his words that were not wrong, this woman didn't have the heart to continue to find fault. In fact, she was also so sad that she had nowhere to vent, thinking that before the outbreak of the plague, she was a well-known and kind person in the neighborhood.

"It's too light, I need a heavy sword of at least 50 Pakri or more!"

"Oh? Young man, I can't tell you still have a lot of strength! I can't make such a heavy two-handed sword, and not only us, I'm afraid many small and medium-sized cities can't make it, if you want to make it, you have to go to at least a city like the four mercenary cities to find a large enough furnace and a high-level forging master. ”

Seeing that Zhang Yang was silent, the woman asked:

"What do you want such a heavy weapon for? I see that many mercenaries and adventurers have to be light, strong, and sharp in their weapons. Heavy swords are rarely required, other heavy weapons can be better, and some armor-piercing hammers and the like will also be customized by some weapon masters. ”

"Oh, that's a pity, I'm here to deal with huge monsters, and if the weapon is too small, it won't work."

"What!? Are you going out of town to deal with zombies? Young man, I see that you are not bad, so I advise you not to go, most of the mercenaries and adventurers who have gone out of the city to destroy zombies in the past ten days have not returned, you, hey? Why haven't I seen you? ”

As she was talking, the woman suddenly reacted to the young man in front of her, whom he had never seen before! You must know that Dharani City has been closed for more than 10 days, and she has basically seen all the mercenaries in the city, so she will ask such a question.

"I'm an adventurer who just arrived here today, my name is Wright, hello."

"Came today? …… How is it possible, there are zombies outside the city! So what the city guards just said is true?! ”

"What?"

"Nothing! It's nothing! You can't help it if you want a heavy sword, but if you want other heavy weapons, I can make them, I don't know?! ”

Facing the female blacksmith who suddenly became enthusiastic, Zhang Yang was a little confused. But without the heavy sword, the other heavy weapons would be fine, otherwise he would have to go back and retrieve the signpost that was planted under the city walls. Considering the situation when dealing with the flesh monster before, Zhang Yang first eliminated the hammer, this thing generally only has a miraculous effect against heavy armored units, and the monster looks full of muscles and toughness, and the hammer may not have much lethality to it, rule it out. A giant axe should be much more lethal than a hammer, but it always feels weird to carry a big axe on your back? Forget it, let's focus on practicality. Thinking of this, Zhang Yang asked:

"A giant axe is fine, but the blade of the axe must be wide and heavy."

"That's easy to say! But if I build it alone, it will take at least 3 days, if you are in a hurry, and you still have the strength, then it is better for you to help too, I will not take your money! ”

"No problem to help. Because I'm also in a hurry, but why don't I need money? ”

When Zhang Yang asked this, he looked at the middle-aged woman who suddenly showed a sad look on her face, and guessed a few points in her heart, it should be the plague, right?

"Hey~! Our family is ruined at this time because of this plague and zombies! If you can avenge me, what is the point of making you a weapon for free? Do not say! Do not say! Now I'm going to get the ingot! You go pull the bellows! The more fire, the better! ”

Zhang Yang silently looked at the back of the woman who turned around and went into the house to get something, and felt that his heart was blocked. How many of these otherwise happy families have been torn apart by the abominable plague?

After a while, the woman who took the iron ingot saw that Zhang Yang had just taken off her cloak and sat on the edge of the bellows and did not start pulling, and wondered if this person had never done this kind of work. She was about to ask, but then she was surprised that her hand loosened, and the iron ingot fell directly to the ground, so that it hung on her feet!

I saw that after Zhang Yang saw this woman come out, he began to reach out and pull the handle of the bellows, Zhang Yang's strength at this time exceeded that of ordinary people by dozens of times? In his easy and fast back and forth, the flames in the fire pit instantly rose nearly two meters high! The blue flames of the roots almost reached the roof of the blacksmith's shop!

"Ahh Come on! Tap, lad! You're too strong! It is enough for the fire to be controlled at a height of one meter. ”

Zhang Yang's strength was recognized by the middle-aged woman at once, and then whether it was casting a mold or building, with the help of Zhang Yang, the progress was fast, and it only took half a day to make a heavy and wide two-handed tomahawk! With the sound of stabbing and stinging water vapor evaporating, the giant axe had completed the casting process and was thrown into a huge cooling water tank that had been specially found.

"Whew! Lad! You're such a great material for a natural blacksmith! I've never had this smooth way of forging weapons in my life! ”

Saying this, the middle-aged woman looked at the huge battle axe immersed in the sink, and felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. After the water was changed and cooled again, the middle-aged woman began to perform some meticulous processing on the embryo.

After two leaks, not only was the newly made tomahawk completed, but Zhang Yang also found clues to the outbreak of the plague in his casual conversation with the middle-aged woman!!
