Chapter 13: Forging Practice

"Bell! Clang! Clang! ”

In a courtyard near the edge of the lower city of the imperial capital, a sturdy young man, shirtless and with an apron tied around his waist, was struggling to hold an iron hammer and beat the iron embryo on the iron felt.

The young man's forging method was very strange, there was no furnace, no iron tongs, and he used very ordinary steel, not mixed with any precious refining materials.

However, the style of youth forging is definitely extravagant, even crazy!

Without a stove, you can't make the iron red?

The young man chanted the incantation, and a fist-sized cyan fireball flew out of his palm. The fireball hovered close to the iron, and instead of exploding as if it were a normal magic, it meekly and steadily released a high temperature.

Soon, the iron embryo was burned red by the sixth-level magic 'Burst Fireball Technique'.

"Bell! Clang! Clang! ”

The young man grasped the hammer in his right hand, and the hammer slammed into the red-hot iron with a loud bang, and hot sparks flew everywhere and splashed on his body.

If you look closely, you can see that the hammer used by the young man in forging is a very precious metal, but there is no special protective layer for heat insulation on the handle of the hammer, and the upper body of the young man is not wearing clothes. The moment the sparks from the hammer splashed on the young man's body, a layer of fighting aura would float in the corresponding position on the young man's body, and the sparks would bounce away.

The iron embryo gradually took shape, and it could be seen that it was the prototype of a long sword, and the young man's technique changed, and the hammer clanged and struck, as if forming a rhythmic song.

The tip of the long sword, the sword body, the sword spine, the blade, and the sword grid are all formed one by one, but the black is not slippery, and it is extremely rough. The young man was not disappointed, his left hand burst out with a fierce fighting spirit, holding the handle of the sword embryo, although under such direct contact, the fighting energy could not completely isolate the high temperature, but he still gritted his teeth, and his right hand was still an inch away from the iron sword, guiding the operation of the fire element.

Quickly, the temperature of the fiery iron sword was forcibly raised, and the steel on the surface began to melt into molten iron, while the temperature of the steel on the inner layer decreased a lot.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put the iron sword embryo into the pool.

With the sound of "zizizi", the rough and rudimentary long sword was quenched.

When the young man saw that the long sword had been quenched, he also buried his head in the pool, and drank a large sip of water to eliminate the heat of striking iron.

"Huhu, Master Ellangus, there is no mistake in my method of crafting weapons!"

Behind the young man, a middle-aged man dressed quite gorgeously and with dark skin reluctantly showed a smile: "Very good, Young Master Wright, there is no problem with this process of building weapons, but if you want to create a good weapon, you need to be more skilled." ”

After a pause, the Elangus Master added: "Young Master Wright, the weapons you forge only use ordinary steel, and the weapons you create are suitable for ordinary sixth-level warriors at most, and seventh-level warriors and above, unless they use weapons such as extremely large sledgehammers and battle axes, most of them must use alloy metals mixed with various special materials. ”

"It's okay," Wright smiled, "Master Elangus must be able to see that I didn't learn to refine weapons to make money, but just a process in cultivation." ”

Master Elangus nodded yes, in fact, when Wright approached a master through the Gehr Chamber of Commerce who was willing to teach basic refining techniques, he refused.

Although Wright has the aura of a genius magician, a warrior, and a student of the Holy Magister on his head, in the eyes of the refining masters in the Chamber of Commerce, they only need to teach some basic refining skills, so why bother with them? These real masters don't have this time to spare.

And Master Yilangus happened to be in the imperial capital, and his level was very strong compared to ordinary refining and forging masters, but in the master level, he could only be regarded as a refining master who injected water, and he was pushed up.

Master Elangus originally thought that although Wright was a genius magician and a genius warrior, he couldn't be a genius in forging refining weapons! Facts have proved that Master Ellangus's judgment is correct, Wright is generally talented in forging refining tools, and he is very 'creative' to develop a method of using magic flames to increase the temperature to burn the red iron embryo, and use fighting energy to directly resist the high temperature.

In fact, it is not uncommon to use magic and fighting energy to assist in the creation of refining weapons, but this is based on the use of commonly used auxiliary tools such as stoves, blowers, and iron tongs, and then further improve the ability to craft. Directly abandon tools and directly use your own strength to build weapons? Master Ylangus had never seen such a madman.

However, Master Ylangus also had a slight guess on Wright's thoughts. After all, as a master of refining, Master Ylangus himself also has good warrior strength, and his body is not strong enough, how can he withstand the high temperature and high-load movement during refining.

And a desperate person like "Young Master Wright" who simply relies on magic and fighting spirit to build weapons looks like an extreme cultivation method!

Indeed, Wright did not learn to forge a refiner with the intention of becoming a master refiner. Using the process of building weapons to temper his cultivation is his purpose!

Using the fireball technique to heat the iron embryo is to strengthen one's control over magic, and as you progress, your goal will continue to increase. Now Wright is releasing a sixth-level fire magic like an arm, and forcibly manipulates the fire element on the created sword embryo, so that the surface of the weapon is high temperature to form a good quenching effect, the material is hard, and the inner annealed material is more tough.

Using the fighting spirit to defend against the sputtering sparks, isolating the high temperature, and can exercise the control of one's own fighting energy, after all, Wright's fighting spirit is only a beginner, and it is only at the level of the second level, if you want to resist the sparks intact, it is naturally impossible for the fighting spirit to burst out to form a whole body protection, so it can't even last a minute. However, with the help of the perception of the fire element, to 'see' every spark, and finely extract every trace of fighting energy to resist, over time, the fighting spirit is naturally trained to be proficient.

Tempering his strength by striking iron, this idea naturally belonged to the nameless sword saint who passed down his cultivation notes.

Wright was a little strange when he read it, the first two paragraphs of the practice notes of the Sword Saint without inscription are closely related to practice, but the last part is like an autobiography. And according to what Wright heard from his teacher, this Nameless Sword Saint is hot inside and cold outside, and it is unlikely that he has the interest to leave such a paragraph in his practice notes that seems to be boasting to himself, and there is another possibility, that is, in fact, he left some clues about his cultivation in this passage.

Wright didn't have to think about it too much, when the Nameless Sword Saint won the two daughters of the Casta family, he was only in his early thirties, and four hundred years later, he was able to kill the first Duke Bach in one battle, which means that in the past four hundred years, he must have made considerable progress, and this progress is naturally not the progress of the fighting spirit, but the progress of the move realm.

Wright also has some understanding of the strength hierarchy of fighters by consulting 'Baruch'.

The first level, 'lifting weights lightly, lifting lightly, lifting weights freely' is essentially a subtle manipulation of power, which is the same level as the subtle manipulation of the elements by a magician.

The second level of 'Attracting Heaven and Earth' means that the power of the elements of Heaven and Earth is used to assist in casting moves, and the power of the moves is even more explosive, in fact, Wright's 'Flowing Fire Realm' is already at this level, of course, it is only a preliminary level reached.

The third level is the law of perception, and only when this level is reached can it be regarded as the pinnacle of the holy realm.

And what did Wuming do in the past four hundred years to greatly increase his realm? For 400 years, a house warrior who accompanies his wife and children and educates future generations, his only hobby is iron forging!

And Wright also happened to hear Uncle Hyde say once that forging can not only be refined, but also cultivated, of course, Uncle Hyde naturally will not teach Wright the specific method. But Wright also has his own teacher, and even has Master Baruch the Sanctuary warrior to ask for.

After comprehensively consulting these two Sacred Domain powerhouses, Wright also formulated this set of forging cultivation methods by himself, on the surface, relying on the environment of striking iron to exercise his fighting spirit, but internally, he improved his realm through the perception of the fire element.

Although the cultivation method of forging weapons is quite hard, Wright's gains are not at all.

Although he is still a seventh-level magician, but the seventh-level magic 'Burst Fireball Technique' released with all his strength, the huge fireball with a diameter of half a meter was compressed to the size of a fist, and the internal flames were completely raised from the 'orange-red flame' to the 'cyan blue flame' level, this move is actually quite a seventh-level magician releasing the seventh-level magic 'Bursting Great Fireball Technique', and even the temperature of the core is higher, and the power of the explosion moment is stronger, which is comparable to the eighth-level magician releasing the seventh-level magic 'Bursting Great Fireball Technique'. Of course, due to the compression of magic, the coverage of the attack burst is much smaller.

In terms of the strength of the warriors, the control of the fire element between heaven and earth has become more refined, and the fighting spirit has become more and more like a finger, which can be easily controlled, and it is more convenient to exert the power of flowing fire.

Wright even planned a 'five-year plan' for himself, breaking through to the eighth level within five years, and at the same time striving for the law of comprehension and reaching the peak realm of the holy realm.
