Chapter 79: Witch Flame and the Swordsmith
As soon as the five of them returned to "9621" on Hebei Island, they found that the ferryman had set up a celebratory party waiting for them on the beach.
Five lounge chairs sit side by side under umbrellas, while a small table next to them is a fruit platter made from fruits picked from the woods and squeezed juices. The ferryman is standing next to a huge barbecue grill making delicious food such as kebabs, grilled mushroom skewers, etc.
"You didn't watch the live stream too, did you?" Gao Zhen said in a daze.
"Live streaming? What live streaming? Is there a live stream of the tournament you just joined? The ferryman looked dazed.
"Then how do you know we took the first place?" Zhou Mi pointed to a party flower gate on the beach, and a sign hung on the door that read, "Congratulations to the Xitian team for winning the championship!" ”
"No, there are still some over there, if you like it, you can change it." The ferryman snorted at the place where the debris was piled up.
Zhou Mi walked over and saw that there were several signs on the ground, some of which read, "Congratulations to the Xitian team for qualifying!" "Congratulations to the Xitian team for winning the second place!" There is also a sign that reads, "Congratulations to the Xitian team for failing to advance!" ”
"What a good housekeeper, very diligent!" Shen Xin said to the ferryman with a grin.
"Don't say that, I'm not here to earn more points!" Ever since his white gunner's robe and the roses in his mouth were confiscated by Shen Xin, he has been wearing a pair of beach shorts, a little less commotionous and more honest.
"I'm in a good mood today, I'll give you 2000 points!" Shen Xin said, took out a small notebook from his arms, and made a note on it.
"The boss is magnificent, the boss is magnificent! Hurry up, come and eat barbecue, eat barbecue! The ferryman smiled and handed out a large handful of skewers in his hand.
"Yay? You've got all of this! Shen Xin suddenly found that there were some swimsuits and swim trunks piled up in the box on the side.
"Hey, a beach party has to look like a beach party!" The ferryman smiled.
Shen Xin squatted on the ground with interest and picked it up, and threw a few pairs of men's swim trunks to the high pillow for them to change into.
After a while, Shen Xin came out of the room after changing her clothes, this was the first time she took off her kimono and changed into other styles of clothes. She picked out a white one-piece swimsuit, which matched her temperament very well. ran over and wanted to hear everyone's praise, but found that everyone was surrounding the high pillow and ignored her at all.
"Hey!" Shen Xin screamed angrily, his hands on his waist.
As a result, the four big men didn't move, and they all lay on the high pillow, studying the witch marks on his chest. Even Gao Zhen himself didn't look up, and looked carefully at the ribbed skeleton covered in black flames.
"It's a witch mark, I used to have a brother, a wizard, who had a tattoo-like witch mark on his body, but not on his chest, but on his back." The ferryman touched his chin and said.
"The book says that the source of the power of wizards is on this witch seal, and they can choose a place on their body as a witch mark at the beginning of their cultivation." As a magician, the fat man still knows something about wizards.
"Dual-career initiate? Where did you get this witch seal? The ferryman looked at Gao Pillow with strange eyes.
Nodding their heads to each other, they decided to tell the ferryman everything about Captain Kidd.
After listening to everyone's explanation, the ferryman frowned, and he squatted on the ground and looked at the sand for a long time, as if he was sorting out his thoughts.
"Can you feel your class as a 'wizard'?" He suddenly raised his head and asked.
Takatsu shook his head, "I can't do anything other than invoke the magic power to release the witch flame and activate the illusion." ”
"It's the same as a first-level wizard. A first-level wizard would only do these two things. "The ferryman is a veteran of Reboot II and knows more than they do.
"I don't know if I'll be able to get promoted." Gao Zhen touched the witch mark on his chest, feeling warm inside, not as cool as before.
"It may be more difficult to promote than the average wizard, and the way to promote may also be different." Lin Haiming guessed.
"I don't think promotion is the main purpose now, being able to combine the abilities of immortal cultivators and the abilities of wizards is really powerful. The reason why dual-career initiates are strong is not because you have many skills, but because you combine them well. Isn't that the god who invented the 'cross-class technique' in the past? He blends magicians and kendo masters well, so he is invincible! The ferryman's heart was aroused, and his heart was surging.
He is almost forty years old, and he has regained the feeling of the past in these college students. That is a dream that he has always been unable to forget, taking a group of younger brothers to the end of the world and dominating one side.
was killed by Gao Zhen before and exploded the items, he was originally very unconvinced, but now he began to admire this young man who can be a "dual-career practitioner". He nodded, feeling that Gao Zhen was a bit like he was back then, ignorant at first, but the future was promising.
"I'm willing to do you a favor!" The ferryman suddenly said to Gao Zhen.
"You want to earn points by setting up relationships?" Shen Xin had just listened to a few people for a while, forgetting what he was angry about, and now he heard the ferryman say that he wanted to help, thinking that he was going to ask for points again.
"No, no, no, sister, I don't want anything, I just want to help this little friend." The ferryman said very sincerely.
"You may not know that I once had a title." The ferryman stood with his back to the crowd, facing the sun, and the golden sunlight outlined his back, making him look tall and majestic.
"They call me, swordsmith!"
"Swordsmith?" The five members of the Xitian Clan asked in unison.
"That's right, although I used two guns, I fought the world. But none of the swords I forged have been broken. The ferryman turned around and looked at the five college students.
"Go get the materials, and let me forge a sword for you."
……
Gao Zhen went to the warehouse and fetched various materials and molds, and wanted to hand them over to the ferryman. But the ferryman shook his head, and he told him that he was not going to rebuild a sword for him, but to reforge the green spirit blade in his hand into a real sword.
It is true that the Qing Spirit Blade has been with Gao Zhen for so long, but he has always felt that it is not very pleasant to use, compared to it, it is too short, it cannot be called an immortal sword at all, but can only be an immortal dagger. The ferryman said that he had a way to forge the Green Spirit Blade into a real fairy sword, and Gao Zhen naturally agreed with him very much.
According to the ferryman's words, the newly forged fairy sword here should be able to help Gao Zhen combine true qi and magical power. The Green Spirit Blade has made a contract with Gao Zhen, and there is a high pillow breath left in the sword, and it is very comfortable to mobilize true qi. Therefore, they had to find a new material to add to the Green Spirit Blade, not only to increase its length, but also to fit the magic power in the high pillow body, so that it could resonate with the pure black magic power.
The green spirit blade belongs to wood, and in addition to the wood-based exercises, the high pillow also cultivates the fire-based "Yang Yan Decision", which comes and goes, and a new material that needs to be added is naturally determined to be "obsidian".
Obsidian is formed by the cooling and condensation of magma, and its attribute is naturally "fire". And its color happens to be black again, which has a wonderful connection with the black magic power of the high rest.
Zhou Mi brought several buckets of magma from the cracks of the active volcano for the ferryman and poured them into the mold made by the ferryman. This mold is very cleverly designed, with a groove in the space filled with magma that is just right to fit the Green Spirit Blade into it. The ferryman used a Adamantite Diamond to drill a few small holes in the emerald green spots on the surface of the Green Spirit Blade, allowing the breath in the blade to communicate with the outer layer of obsidian.
After the magma cooled, with the help of the others, the ferryman cracked open the mold and took out the forged sword inside.
Seeing this sword, everyone looked at the ferryman with suspicion. Can this be called a sword? This is clearly a black "eel"!
"Eh, don't worry, my real work hasn't started yet!" As he spoke, the ferryman placed the black "eel" on the anvil, picked up the hammer that had been handed to him from the high pillow, and began to pound rhythmically on the sword.
The ferryman was shirtless, his muscles tense, and for the first time everyone thought he was very strong. The hammer slammed into the obsidian longsword, and sparks continued to splash. The ferryman thrashed and told the crowd that it was because of his profession that he was able to control his muscles so precisely, striking every blow impartially, where the sword needed to be hammered.
Finally, the ferryman raised his sword and asked Takatsu to try to use the magic power to burn the sword with the witch flame to strengthen the hardness of the sword.
In this way, after scorching in the black witch flame for half an hour, the ferryman plunged his sword into the cold stream and quickly cooled it.
Everyone was surprised to find that after such a dip in the stream, the long sword as black as an eel actually faded away a layer of dirty shell, revealing its true appearance.
This is a three-foot long sword, the whole body is dark green, in a place where there is no light, it is almost a pure black sword, but if you use light to shine on it, you will find that this sword is actually dark green, and the green is crystal clear.
Gao Zhen held the long sword in his hand and tried to swing it, and suddenly felt very comfortable. Whether it is the length of the sword, or the weight of the sword, it is just right. He couldn't help but admit in his heart the ferryman's title of "swordsmith".
Because every time he swings this sword, a pure black witch flame will ignite on the blade of the sword, and this witch flame will dye the sword body a piece of green. So, Gao Zhen decided to name it: Qingmo Sword.
