"No, no, no, I mean you mentioned that it's very similar to a light iron ingot. As far as I know, the Light Iron Bar is a metal of divine power that is used to create paladin-exclusive armor or weapons to restrain the undead, shadow magic, and demons, but it doesn't exhibit similar properties. ”

Zhang Cheng pretended to be serious and interrupted the other party's words, and at the same time threw out another question that bothered him.

As a time-traveler with a curiosity and a desire to explore, he has already tested Valyrian steel in various ways, but the actual results have been quite disappointing.

This metal has no merit at all, except that it has a higher melting point than ordinary steel, and is harder and tougher.

The only thing that made him wonder was why the Valyrian Steel Sword was able to kill the Alien that ordinary weapons could not kill, could it be that some supernatural power in the Alien's body happened to be restrained by Valyrian Steel?

Unfortunately, he hadn't seen any strange ghosts yet, and he couldn't confirm it in person anytime soon, so his research on Valyrian steel was stopped.

The dwarf didn't get angry at the slightest for someone interrupting him, but laughed happily and said, "Hahahaha! I understand! You only see the superficial phenomenon, but you don't realize the root cause." Yes, the Light Cast Iron Ingot is a magical metal that contains the power of Holy Light, and even if ordinary people use weapons made of Light Pillar Iron Bars, it can inflict holy damage like paladins and priests on undead and demons. I don't know if you've noticed, but the metal used in this dagger has a similar effect, especially for magical energy. ”

"Magical energy?" Zhang Cheng seemed to think of something, and raised his hand to release a faint arcane energy towards the dagger.

Moment!

It was as if these energies had hit an invisible stand, and they were all bounced back.

When he found this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he curled the corners of his mouth and said to himself, "Oh-I see!

"That's right, young man, you're very observant, you know, if you take this thing to MI7, the top Assassins will definitely be willing to pay a lot of money for it. Demon Breaking Metal is rare, at least for the first time in my life. With that, the old dwarf reluctantly returned the dagger.

Looking at the beautiful patterns on the surface of Valyrian steel, Zhang Cheng lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

After a full minute, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he offered to offer, "My dear friend, I wonder if you would be interested in making a weapon for me out of this metal?"

"Well, did you mean that you melted this dagger and rebuilt it into a short sword?" said the old dwarf, patting his chest.

As a veteran blacksmith, he couldn't let go of the magical material of demon-breaking metal, and at the same time he was very excited to see what kind of interesting work he could create from this metal.

"No, I don't need to melt it down, I still have enough stock. However, the weapon I'm going to build is quite special, so I hope you don't get angry after listening to it. ”

As the last word fell, Zhang Cheng glanced around vigilantly, and only after confirming that no one was eavesdropping on him did he lean into the other party's ear and say a word.

Who knew that it would be okay not to say it, but as soon as he said it, the old dwarf immediately burst into a rage: "Damn! I'm a blacksmith! Do you understand the dwarf blacksmith? Not those gnomes who tinker with parts! Please don't insult my profession!"

"Calm down, man. I swear, if you do me a favor, I'll leave enough metal for you to craft a real weapon, whether it's a sword, a warhammer, an axe, or armor. Zhang Cheng seemed to have anticipated the dwarf's reaction, and made conditions unhurriedly.

"Shit! You human mages are treacherous! Okay, deal. You can take the work with you, but be sure to engrave my name on it. After much hesitation and struggle, the dwarf finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

No way, any aspiring dwarven blacksmith aspires to create a masterpiece in his lifetime, and he is no exception.

"As you wish, Master. Zhang Cheng pretended to be humble and stood up and bowed slightly.

But the old dwarf didn't seem to appreciate it at all, and pouted and said, "Don't come to this set!" I can make this weapon for you in advance, but you must come up with a detailed blueprint, and you will also need ten silver ingots, an arcane crystal no less than the size of your palm, two diamonds, and a ruby. ”

"Leave it to me, I'll have all the materials ready in four hours at most. Zhang Cheng gave an affirmative answer without even thinking about it.

He had even begun to fantasize that he would come with this weapon in his hand at a critical moment, directly cutting through the opponent's various protective magic, and making the enemy swallow his last breath in disbelief.

"In that case, then I'll go back and rest first, and then come to the third house on the right street of the dwarf district to find me, my name is Kleney Copperhammer. ”

With that, the old dwarf snatched the glass full of strawberry juice, raised his head and drank it all, then burped and disappeared out of the inn with his buttocks.

As soon as he left with his front foot, old George leaned over with his hind foot and asked softly, "Your Excellency, do you want to build a weapon?"

"Well, yes. I just had a great idea and was about to put it into practice. Oh, by the way, here's the list of materials, help me prepare, here are fifty gold coins, if it's not enough, it will be deducted from the next payment. Zhang Cheng casually tore off a piece of paper from his notebook, wrote down what he needed to buy, and placed it on the table along with the money bag.

"Got it, I'm going to go myself. Old George did not attempt to inquire further, and quickly got up and left the inn.

After all, something like the Thorium Bar is a strictly military-controlled item even in Stormwind City, and only nobles and superior officers are eligible to use weapons and armor made of Thorium, and he needs to use some special connections to get ten Thur Silver Bars.

As for Zhang Cheng, he continued to sit in front of the bar, chatting with the bartender one by one, and when he stood up and was about to go back to the room to rest, he suddenly found that he didn't know when there was an extra note in his palm.

I saw that it was written in lingua franca: In order to thank you for your help last time, I have specially prepared a small gift for you, please be sure to visit the old town before dark. ”

"Old Town? Should I say it's MI7? Less than forty minutes after entering Stormwind, Matthias Shore knew where I was, and even unknowingly delivered the note to me. Zhang Cheng crumpled the note into a ball and squinted his eyes around the hall, trying to find the agent who delivered the letter.

But unfortunately, I don't know if it's because the other party has left a long time ago, or if the disguise is too perfect, and he didn't find a suspicious target at all......
