Chapter 1576: Sword and Shield
********************************************************************************************************
"That's right, he's Rucogas." ,
It wasn't the first time they had met this well-known blacksmith, so they weren't too surprised.
It's just that this blacksmith doesn't like to deal with people very much.
The group of four walked towards the depths of the cave, and finally came to the end, where they saw the giant blacksmith "standing tall" in front of them.
Dirty feet squatting on the ground, up is a simple animal skin shorts, a slanted half-body animal skin clothes, a beast tendon tied around the waist, *** out of the right half of the chest and the whole arm, full of powerful muscles that make the barbarian even visually shocked, every time the hammer falls, the world in the heart is trembling.
The head, most conspicuously a thick gray-white beard that almost obscured half of the face, and equally thick eyebrows and hair, presumably in relation to a long period of working with dirt and minerals, were dusty and blackened, and looked like a raunchy savage.
Only the pair of blue pupils that emerged from between the gray and messy eyebrows and hair were extremely pure, like a baby who had just opened its eyes, and the gaze revealed in it was more firm and persistent than steel.
Of course, the most prominent thing is his height, Raphael said. The size of the adult giant clan is almost all above ten meters, and the patriarch of the giant clan can be as high as twenty meters. It can be seen that perhaps the height can roughly judge the strength of a giant.
With this in mind, after a cursory glance at his appearance, I carefully observed the height of Rukogas, although he squatted and sitting, it was not easy to measure, but how to say that we have also experienced the era of huge blood bear transformation, and we are still relatively sensitive to height. After some visual inspection, general information was obtained.
The size of Rukogas is definitely more than ten meters, about fourteen or fifteen meters. In this way, even if he squatted in the cave, he couldn't raise his head, and even if he bent down, his head was already on the top of the cave.
This is the same as what I was exploring with my spiritual consciousness. In other words, in the nearly month we've been in the cavern, Rukogas probably hasn't moved any part of his body except for his constantly waving arms.
What an amazing amount of perseverance and patience. It has these things, even if it doesn't have the strength and talent of the giants. You can also become a blacksmith who is famous in the mainland.
I came back to my senses, and the four of them stood quietly. Waiting for the hammer that Rucogas kept knocking down to stop, this is the most basic respect for a blacksmith, and he must not be disturbed while he is working.
After about half an hour, the hammer, which had been falling with a well-proportioned frequency and force, finally stopped in the air.
"Lord Rucogas, can you hear me? Lord Rucogas? Standing in the distance, I shouted at the giant blacksmith.
Completely ignoring my shouts, Rukogas put down the hammer, turned his head slightly, and directly waved another huge arm, digging up the cave wall next to him, in front of the calloused five fingers, the hard wall was like tofu, and he could dig up a lot of rubble every time.
After just a few excavations, he stopped, carefully picked out a few pieces of black ore from the falling rubble, and added them evenly to the forging under his feet.
Don't look at his five fingers that are rough like black charcoal, but when adding mineral materials, they are very dexterous and steady, just like the needlework in the hands of a big girl, which is staggering.
Then, keep banging.
"Look, little brother, he doesn't pay attention to people, and we did the same last time." Sagili elbowed her head and muttered quietly.
"Well...... this"
I originally thought that my protagonist's aura would be able to suppress Lucogas and get special treatment, but I didn't expect the other party to have eyes and not recognize Taishan, and also ignore me, very good, coach, cut this guy's role for me.
I secretly complained to myself, and when Rukogas stopped the hammer again, I didn't wait for it to make any moves, and immediately took out a small keel from the inventory and shouted.
"Lord Rucogas, I have good materials here, can you please help forge them?"
The attraction of this keel was obviously greater than my words, and when he took it out high, Rukogas's movements paused slightly, and then the huge head turned to this side, looking at the four small [grasshoppers] on the ground.
Looking at the side just now, Lukogas's attention is not on us, I feel better, now I turn my head, facing each other, my eyes also fall on us, a majestic momentum suddenly poured down, breathing, I only feel that Lukogas in front of me is getting taller and taller, and finally becomes a giant standing up to the sky, between breaths, it seems to swallow clouds and spit out the moon, every move, the power exuded is breathless.
His gaze swept over, and the four of us suddenly felt that we were completely seen, and we unconsciously shuddered.
"Human, it's been a long time since I've seen a human." The beard covering his mouth trembled a few times, and a strong voice seemed to come directly in his head, and then it echoed in the cave for a long time.
It's not that you haven't seen a human for a long time, it's that you haven't faced a human for a long time.
I said secretly in my heart, on the surface, I still maintain respect, in terms of the momentum exuded by Rucogas, he is no longer an ordinary world powerhouse, it is very likely to be at the level of the black dragon Elias.
Or in other words, his strength is not weaker than the four demon kings, maybe I have seen so far, except for the twelve knights, the king of mermaids, and the fifth master, the strong man who can be ranked in the top ten, no wonder he works next to the old nest where the corpse is angry, and the corpse is angry and does not dare to say a word.
"You ......"
Suddenly, Rukogas's gaze fell on me, and he looked at me for a long time, telling me Alexander. It's because he knows me, but he finally discovered my protagonist aura, well, in this case, you can consider adding scenes.
"I see. Want me to forge this keel? It took a moment for him to withdraw his gaze, and it fell to mine.
"To be precise...... This keel is one of them, is that okay? I asked, boldly, greedily.
"It's also a good material."
Rukogas said with an urn, turning his massive body towards us as well, but he could only maintain a crouched position, the cavern was too small for him. He doesn't seem to have any intention of expanding either.
As soon as he stretched out his big hand, the keel flew towards him and landed in his hand, only to see that Krugas would not pick up the guy he was eating. The huge swarthy hammer that was more than one person tall didn't ask me what I was going to build, two slaps and ten fingers were directly kneaded against the keel.
It's just a very small keel. It was the thickness of a man's arm, and it was even smaller when it fell into Rukogas's hand, and when a toothpick was not enough, he was constantly pulled and kneaded by his ten fingers. Completely unable to see what he wanted to do.
It's just that no matter what, I'm speechless.
Top dog. This is a keel, a keel. The keel was harder than a diamond, and Rucogas kneaded it in his hand like a noodle.
This giant...... Is it a monster?
Anyway, I only now realize that Rukogas is a strange blacksmith, and his tools seem to be nothing but a hammer, a high-temperature stove, a fire clip, a casting, a carving knife, and a cold sink that you can see in a blacksmith's shop.
It's quite a bit of a transcendent feeling from complexity to simplicity.
Thinking about what we didn't have, we didn't even dare to take a breath of air, for fear of disturbing Lucogas [kneading] the keel there.
After about half an hour, he turned around, picked up the giant hammer, struck the keel that seemed to be about to be about to be struck dozens of times, put it in the palm of his hand, looked at it a few times, blew on it, and handed it to me.
This is a keel weapon about a meter long, like a sword and a knife, very simple, not even a basic gauntlet, a round grip, connected to a thin sword body four fingers wide, it looks extremely sharp.
Taking it from Rucogas's hands, the other three couldn't wait to get their heads together, all wanting to see what kind of weapon was created by this famous craftsman.
Black Dragon Bone Sword (White)
One-handed damage: 159276
Strength Required: 100
Required Level: 56
Ignores target defense (medium)
50% chance of tearing wounds
A tabula rasa's bone sword, but surprisingly attached to two attributes, is such a weapon that Tulakov and Shahik are still dumbfounded.
Ignore target defenses? This is the top-level attribute, and it actually appears on a tabula rasa weapon?
Medium ignores the target's defense attributes, but it can ignore the defense of any monster below the elite monster, and dealing with them is like chopping vegetables, and the defense of the elite-level monster can ignore most of it, and even the lord-level monster can ignore about one-third of the defense.
Moreover, the basic attack of this tabula rasa sword is also amazingly high, which is higher than the basic attack power of the top giant god blade in the essence-level two-handed weapon, which is almost a tabula rasa artifact.
Ignoring the target's defense, combined with such a high base attack, and having a high chance of tearing the wound, this seemingly unsightly short sword is a big killer weapon with fangs hidden, and a tabula rasa comparable to dark gold equipment.
The two big men drooled when they saw it, if it weren't for the fact that both of them were heavy weapon users, this short sword of about one meter was really unappetizing, and it seemed to be suitable for the rookie younger brother, so they would have to be cheeky to buy it.
The necromancer Sa Qili, who had no desire for this kind of weapon, also sighed in amazement, as an adventurer for so many years, she had never seen a few weapons with the defensive attribute of ignoring the target.
"It's a pity, it's a whiteboard." Tulakov and Shahik wiped the saliva from the corners of their mouths, their eyes showing regret.
If it's dark gold...... No, even if it is a gold level, with a few more practical attributes, the power of this bone sword can be increased several times, compared to those dark gold weapons.
"The whiteboard is just right, if it's attribute equipment, I may not be able to equip it." I didn't hesitate to touch the bone sword and muttered.
Compared with others who pay attention to attributes, I care more about the needs of this sword, no matter how good the attributes are, if I can't use them, it's for nothing. This is the feeling I have experienced most during my time in the third world.
The level requires fifty-six, which happens to be my current level, and I think it's compared to ignoring the target's defense attributes. This is the most powerful thing about Rucogas, not only can he see through my level at a glance, but he can perfectly control the needs of this sword in the amount that I can just use.
It's not that he can't make the dragon bone sword into attribute equipment, but in this way, the level demand will definitely increase, and the better the attribute, the higher the level demand, this is an immutable law.
"Your rank is too low. Only some attributes can be sacrificed. ”
As I expected, Rukogas's deep buzzing voice rang out in my head, and Tulakov and Shahik immediately thought of it. Cast an admiring gaze at each other.
"Lord Rucogas, I have some dragon bones, can you help me build other equipment?" Putting the dragon bone sword away, I looked at him respectfully and asked.
"Make one more piece." Rukogas replied lightly. The tone does not allow for kit counteroffers.
I can only make one more piece......
This is stumping me, what do you want to do?
"Armor, of course it's armor, even if it's a tabula rasa armor." Sagili whispered in my ear.
This sentence made my heart pound. That's right, I'm lacking defenses. If you let Rukogas make an armor for yourself, according to the attributes of the dragon bone sword just now. Even if it is a tabula rasa armor, the basic defense must be very high, and with the keel as the material, the quality must be very high, so that my defense can be increased by at least five or six times.
It's just that...... It's a bit of a waste.
I scratched my head and thought hard, it was difficult to choose, as Rucogas said, in order to make equipment suitable for my level, I had to sacrifice many attributes, and my current level is only a transitional nature, and I dare not hope for level eighty, but in a year or two, if there is enough time for me to train, there is no problem in upgrading to level sixty or seventy.
At that time, there will be more top-quality armor for me to choose from, and now I have to waste such a superb material as a keel to get a tabula rasa armor, isn't it a little too worthless?
Let Rucogas build a piece of attribute equipment around level 70, and wear it when the level is raised in the future? This is not a far-sighted approach, but when you get it in your hands, you can't put it on, and your heart is always itching and uncomfortable.
And my ultimate goal is to have my own suit, and I always feel that I don't need to go out of my way to get such good equipment.
Just make a piece of equipment for someone else.
When I thought about it in my heart, I suddenly stopped being entangled and felt a lot easier.
By the way, didn't you say you wanted to be rewarded? And in the incident of the black dragon Elias, she also has a share of credit.
I clapped my palms and decided to come down.
"I'm sorry, but I'm the only piece of equipment, I want it myself." First of all, I apologize to the three of them, in fact, it is very appropriate to give them this opportunity as a transaction.
"If the younger brother has this heart, we are already very satisfied." Sakiri touched my head and smiled, and Tulakov and Shasik smiled and gave me a thumbs up.
"Very well, Lord Rucogas, I'm going to build a shield." Taking a deep breath, I tilted my head and shouted at the giant blacksmith.
"Shield?" The three of them didn't expect me to choose this and were taken aback.
"Well, I'm going to give it to a friend."
"I see, who is that friend of the younger brother? Could it be a girl? Sa Qili squinted her beautiful eyes with curiosity and asked with a smile.
"Well...... It's a friend and a subordinate. I mumbled a few words and pulled out a dragon skull from my inventory, which should be a good material for a shield.
"It's about level seventy-five, it doesn't matter how high or low the defense is, the most important thing is to be bigger, stronger, and more damaging, okay?"
"Seventy-five...... I can almost use the power of the material. ”
Rukogas muttered to himself, holding the skull in his palm, turned around, and went straight to the forge, this time with more care and time.
It took almost three hours before it lowered its hammer and handed over a large white shield.
It was a shield resembling a long knight's shield, a man tall, with a graceful silhouette that believed its bulky size.
The most conspicuous thing is the dense spikes on the shield surface, about the length of chopsticks, which makes people shudder, and secretly says in their hearts Is this a weapon or a killing weapon?
It seems that Rukogas has a good grasp of [damage is higher], just imagining that such a shield is smashed over, he feels pain all over, and there is an illusion of being pierced and bloody.
Rucogas's Black Dragonbone Shield (Golden)
Defense: 812
Paladin Bash Damage: 281362
Strength required: 180
Agility Required: 120
Required Level: 75
+231% Defense Enhancement
+2 All Skills
+30 to all stats (+30 to all stats)
Damage reduced by 20%
The attacker takes 100 damage
Indestructible (Advanced)
Seeing the attributes of this shield, the saliva of the four of us almost didn't stay, especially Shahik.
The best, the best, the attributes of this golden shield are stronger than dark gold.
"The quality of this keel is good, if you want to fully exert the ability of the material, you need about level 85, and it can be made into dark gold equipment." Rukogas said disappreciatively, implying that it was still a waste to make golden equipment.
