Chapter 81: Energy Weapons
As a lord in the underworld, Kane has seen many incredible things at the annual auction, but he has never been able to feel the shock of the weapon in front of him.
Before that, he would never have imagined that a sword could completely abandon the entity, and be composed of the purest energy, through the absorption and eruption of energy, inflicting great damage on the enemy.
In a way, it's not just about creating a powerful magic item, it's a precedent, a creation from nothing.
Regardless of the value of the dagger itself, the technology and ideas alone are enough to prove the inventor's attainments in the fields of magic and energy.
Originally, Kane was still a little worried that an alchemist who was too young would not be able to meet his requirements, but after admiring the process of making the short sword, the hanging heart finally fell.
Of course, he didn't know that the reason why Zhang Cheng was able to make such a cool-looking thing was actually just borrowing the section crafting techniques of the High Elves of Azeroth, supplemented by some of the runes that had been deciphered recently.
What's more, according to the standards of the game's data, this short sword is about forty at most, which is far from Tib's blazing longsword and the Silver Dawn Avenger, and it is not even as good as the Mithril weapon with a slightly higher enchantment level.
Zhang Cheng's purpose in creating the energy short sword is very simple, on the one hand, to exercise his skills in making magic items, so as to pave the way for creating exclusive equipment in the future, and on the other hand, to test the power of some deciphered rune combinations, and the number he muttered before is the code of the corresponding rune.
Carefully grasping the hilt of the sword with the protective magic attached, he waved his hand towards the chair closest to him.
Moment!
The terrifying cold directly froze the wood, making the chair hard and brittle!
Next Second......
Smack!
The entire chair shattered under the direct impact of cold energy, and countless pieces of the city were broken.
You don't have to ask to know that if you touch the body of an ordinary person, the effect is almost the same.
Just when Zhang Cheng was thinking about whether he had to build another scabbard, Kane, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but stand up, applauded and exclaimed: "Wonderful! I can't believe that I have inadvertently witnessed a miracle." I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of asking if you have any intention of selling this sword, and if so, then I can arrange it for auction at the end of this year as a lord. I promise that there will be many people trying to get their hands on it. ”
"For sale?" Zhang Cheng visibly froze.
Because in his eyes, the short sword can only be regarded as a practice at best, especially the silver-white light flame is strong and weak, and it is very unstable, and it is simply a pit to take out such a thing and buy it.
Imagine how wonderful the expression on a swordsman's face would be when he swung his long sword and was about to stab into the heart of his opponent, and suddenly found that the sword was shorter.
I'm afraid that the hearts of all the female members of the swordsmith's family are gone!
"Why, you're not going to sell?" Kane said tentatively, somewhat uncertainly.
"No! I mean it's a defective product, and it doesn't seem like a good place to sell. Zhang Cheng, who came back to his senses, hurriedly shook his head and explained.
"Defective product?" Kane subconsciously glanced at the short sword, he really couldn't understand that a weapon that could release such a powerful energy impact, where it looked like a defective product, was obviously a fine product.
There is no doubt that because of the different perspectives, there is a huge deviation in the cognition of the two.
The former stands in the manufacturer's shoes and demands perfection as much as possible, while the latter puts himself at the user's feet and thinks that this never-before-seen energy weapon will definitely play an unexpected role in battle.
The end result is that both sides are staring at each other, and neither can figure out what the other means.
Fortunately, Kane, who had lived for more than sixty years, finally had a lot of life experience, and quickly sensed this opportunity, and proposed with a smile: "Why don't you sell this short sword to me directly?" I promise that no matter what problems arise in the future, I will never blame you. ”
"And what about the price?" Zhang Cheng was not a fool, and immediately saw through the other party's little abacus.
In any case, in order to successfully forge the sword in front of him, he had experienced nearly twenty failures, and only melted more than one hundred and fifteen gold dinars, if he hadn't made some money by selling potions, I am afraid that he would not have succeeded at all.
As for the time and energy wasted, it can't be measured by money, and how can you do it without taking the opportunity to recover some interest.
"I think 500 gold dinars is a pretty reasonable price. Kane quietly offered a relatively low psychological price and was ready to bargain.
Although he didn't know the exact cost of the sword, judging from the inexhaustible eruption of energy, he couldn't expect to take it without a few thousand gold dinars.
"Five hundred?!" Zhang Cheng, who was seriously lacking research funds, had his eyes lit up and nodded without hesitation. "Deal!"
After all, no valuable materials were used in the process of building the dagger, but a little bit of Mithril brought back from the world of Azeroth was mixed with ordinary knife steel, ensuring that even the hilt of the sword would not disintegrate after the rune was activated.
The real big head is still the smelted gold dinar, and every time you try to build it, you have to consume ten pieces, and five hundred pieces is already considered a windfall profit of five thousand, so there is no reason to disagree.
What's more, the energy shortsword forged with the help of the mysterious symbol in the notebook doesn't know if it can be used normally once it leaves this world, and it only has research value, not actual combat value until this is confirmed.
"What...... What?" Kane's eyes widened in surprise as he couldn't believe his ears.
Zhang Cheng thought that the other party was going to regret it, so he stuffed the short sword into the old man's hand, and said with a straight face: "I'm sorry, the item has been sold and will not be returned." Now please pay five hundred gold dinars. ”
Feeling the chill emanating from the silver-white flames, Kane sighed with a smile, took out a chic key from his jacket pocket and handed it over: "Here, a small bank called Osa on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, you take the key and give it to any of the staff there, and they will take you to the safe and take out five hundred gold dinars." ”
"Banks, there are still banks in the underground world?" Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Of course there are banks in the underworld!Please! It's the twenty-first century! We're not living in the dark Middle Ages of a few hundred years ago!" Kane, who was in a good mood, joked casually.
If it weren't for something heavier, he would definitely return to his stronghold and test the power of his short sword......
