Chapter Seventy-Four: The First Trial of Casting

The first pass reward plus the racing reward, now Lin Shuai has a total of 12 gold coins in his pocket, in the first three days of the game, it can be called a huge amount of money, and now renting an ordinary store is only this price.

I took a look at the manufacturing drawings I have now, short swords, long swords, light armor and helmets, a total of four are level 10 blueprints, except for light armor, the other three drawings can be made as long as there is iron ore.

Due to the weight, Lin Shuai's backpack could only hold less than 70 units of ore at a time, and he wondered if he should get a few pieces of priest equipment to add strength.

Casting weapons doesn't have to be as troublesome as in reality, after all, this is a game, you can't always take a side job, and you can practice a craft in reality.

Lin Shuai's first piece of equipment was a short sword, because to try it, it consumed the least, and only five pieces of iron ore were needed to refine it.

The blacksmith's stove was rented for 5 silver coins an hour, and 10 silver coins were rented for two hours.

The first thing to do is to purify the iron ore, which is also the reason why the ore should be divided into quality grades, the better the quality, the higher the iron content in it, and the better the material of the iron ingot extracted.

Throwing five pieces of iron ore into the furnace, Lin Shuai bought all grade 1 stones, and the refining effect was naturally the worst, the iron content of one ore was only 35%, and the five ores refined less than one-third of the iron ingots.

The irregularly shaped iron block about 40 centimeters long is then thrown onto the stove to burn red, and the rest is up to the player.

Pick up the casting hammer that is sitting next to you, select the casting target as the short sword, and use the primary casting technique.

The primary casting technique is actually to attach a 50-second casting buff to the player, during this time, the player repeatedly beats the target, and the target can be cast into the items they need, and the beating beyond this time has no effect, and will only have a destructive attribute to the target.

The buff was added, and the casting hammer in his hand fell on the red-hot iron ingot one by one, and the sparks shot in all directions, and a short sword gradually took shape.

Because the strength is too low, Lin Shuai always feels awkward wielding the casting hammer, and the instructions of the short sword drawings require at least 60 beats to make the weapon form, Lin Shuai only knocked out 20 times in 50 seconds, which strengthened his idea of preparing a body of strength equipment.

When the skill cooled down, the sword tire, which already had a rudimentary form, was thrown onto the stove to continue heating.

Theoretically speaking, there is no upper limit to the number of times a weapon can be knocked during the molding process, but it does not mean that the more times you knock it, the tougher the weapon will be, and this number of times will be limited by the material, such as the iron ingot in front of you, I am afraid that a hundred times will reach the limit, and any more will have the effect of destroying the material.

Repeatedly heated and beaten, three minutes later, this iron ingot has been knocked by Lin Shuai more than 80 times, a sharp short sword has been formed, and the next thing is to cast the most critical part, quenching.

Picked up the high-temperature short sword with fire tongs, and slammed it into the sink on the side, "Wow...", a large amount of water vapor rose, the sword body quickly cooled down and turned black, fiddling back and forth in the water a few times, about 10 seconds later, Lin Shuai scooped up the sword body.

Raising his eyebrows, why is this short sword still crooked? Originally, the shape of the casting should be straight, but now there are several slightly curved arcs on the sword body, which looks like a Philippine Malay sword, but his sword is bent up and down, is it because of the few shakes? Lin Shuai wondered in his heart.

The system has not yet prompted the casting failure, that is to say, this is not a failure, throw the sword body into the holding furnace for the final step, two minutes of tempering time, the sword body appears reddish, take it out and put it aside to cool naturally.

It took ten minutes for a short sword to be cast.

"Hint: Congratulations on successfully forging a dagger (whiteboard) with +10 Crafting Skill Mastery."

The crafted weapon does not require the player to open the blade, as long as it can be formed, it is considered to be successfully cast.

【Short Sword: Lin Shuai Production】

【Grade:Whiteboard】

[Attack: 3-11]

[Item Description: Failed product that was successfully crafted by luck.] 】

[Requirements: Level 10]

[Durability: 80/80]

……

Failed product of luck success... Well, feelings or luck play a role, otherwise your sword is bound to fail, let me say, this crooked weapon doesn't look like success.

But it's a success, and with 10 points of proficiency, I'm still lucky compared to someone who has nothing after casting for 10 minutes.

Throwing the short sword back into the furnace and rebuilding it, adding 5 pieces of iron ore, this time Lin Shuai wanted to try to make a long sword.

The same process, but the number of tempering times became at least 80 times, Lin Shuai directly tempered the iron ore to the extreme of 100 times, but the sword body was directly broken during quenching, and the casting failed, and only 3 points of proficiency were added.

The same ingredient can only be used twice at most, as the addition of the previous shortsword material has caused the entire longsword to be turned into scrap metal and recycled by the blacksmith at a low price.

In an hour and a half, Lin Shuai carried out a total of 12 casting, and the god of luck did not seem to favor him, and Lin Shuai only succeeded 4 times in 12 times, casting four tabula rasa long swords.

The proficiency of the long sword is 15 points, and Lin Shuai's proficiency in the primary casting technique has barely risen to 89 points, almost upgrading a little.

In this hour and a half, Lin Shuai can be regarded as having initially mastered this technique, such as the best number of times to control when tempering, and the vertical movement when quenching, not to swing horizontally, otherwise the sword body will be deformed, etc.

The reason for the low success rate Lin Shuai also guessed roughly, or because his strength attribute is too low, far lower than the strength that a qualified blacksmith needs to have, if it weren't for the rules of the system, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to carry the casting hammer.

The weapons made are all garbage, no player will buy them, fortunately, the blacksmith can recycle these garbage equipment, 20 copper coins are recycled, and after recycling to the blacksmith shop, the system will erase the information created by the players above, and then they will put out 2 silver coins.

The last batch of ores in the backpack is empty, and the system also prompts that the friend is zero online.

Lin Shuai also remembered at this time, patronizing the practice of the deputy position, did his cousin and Chen Siyi come back? Can Chen Siyi play games, why didn't she come to tell herself.

"Let's upgrade the east of the city together, I'll go offline first and come back in a minute." Leaving a word for Zero, Lin Shuai hurriedly quit the game world.

The bedroom was empty, and there was a cacophony of voices outside the room.

"Put it here, put it here, yes, yes, the one that carries it to my room......" Leng Xinyao spoke.

"What's the matter, what are you moving so many things for?" As soon as Lin Shuai went out, Lin Shuai was stunned, Leng Xinyao and Chen Siyi were directing the employees who didn't know where, and moved a lot of things to put in the living room, and after a closer look, the uniforms of those employees clearly said "Lily Moving Company".

"Ah, cousin, I didn't bother you when I saw you playing games." Leng Xinyao said with a smile.

Thanks to my cousin entering the game, I can have the opportunity to cut first and then play, otherwise I don't know how strong resistance I will encounter.

"I'm going to move in for a while, and you know my house isn't safe right now." Leng Xinyao said meaningfully, pointing to Lin Shuai's room.

Lin Shuai understood that she was saying that she was afraid that the ghost would come back from time to time for a walk, and her head would hurt a little, it was impossible to say that she was not afraid, and Lin Shuai himself was also worried that if the big brother killed him one day, but you just left a few talismans, and you don't need to move over.

When I walked over, I saw that my bedroom, which had never lived in anyone, had already been cleaned up, and the pink girl's boudoir had been dressed up, and it seemed that I hadn't been idle since I entered the game.

"You... What are you doing at home, have you told your parents? "I just wanted to say that your school is far away from most of the city, is it convenient to go to school, but I remembered that when the school starts in September, people will have the same school as themselves, and it is more convenient to live here.

"Hehe, my mother agreed for me to live with you, and she said she didn't let me go out and rent a house alone." Leng Xinyao said with a sly expression.

Lin Shuai knew at a glance that she had planned it a long time ago, even if it wasn't for Chen Siyi's matter, she would move over sooner or later, just because of her aunt's attitude, it would be humiliating for her to call and ask by herself......

"Ugh." Sighing helplessly, Lin Shuai didn't know how to refute, the peaceful days of living alone were gone, and he thought bitterly in his heart.

Just about to be out of sight and out of mind, go back to the room and continue to play the game with Zero.

"Eh, how did you clean up this room, you ......" Lin Shuai said halfway, and suddenly pointed to Chen Siyi, "You want to move over too?" ”

"That's right, cousin, Sisi is alone now, you can't let her go out to live by herself." Chen Siyi was a little embarrassed, Leng Xinyao came over and hugged her and said quickly.

"But..."Lin Shuai was for a long time, and he didn't know how to say the words.

He can't say, I didn't treat you as a woman, it's okay for you to live in, but although Chen Siyi is a female ghost, she is also a young female ghost now, how inconvenient it is to live in.

"Okay, okay, you decide, you don't have me as a cousin in your eyes anyway." Said with a sigh.

What else can I do, Chen Siyi doesn't want to go home now, she can't go to school, she can only live here in addition to renting a house, and a ghost goes out to rent a house... Looking at Leng Xinyao's appearance, I'm afraid she won't let her go out by herself.

"Hee-hee, cousin, you're so nice!" Leng Xinyao rushed over and was about to give Lin Shuai a loving kiss, but was knocked over in place by the ruthless burst.

"Since the two of you have moved here, then there are some rules to be followed, I will come back later, we need three chapters of the law, otherwise there will be chaos sooner or later."

Lin Shuai said solemnly, it seems that he will not be able to sleep naked in the future.
