Chapter 44: Master Dogen
Not to mention anything else, the two shield defenders in front of them had already begun to take a defensive posture.
This profession is the same telekinesis profession as swordsmen and marksmen, but the weapon is a shield, the telekinesis trait is stable, and it is good at defenseββββ dwarves are also the race with the highest proportion of telekinesis, and about 1 in 10 adult males are telekinetic warriors.
Well...... This may be due to their stubborn nature.
Ford didn't care about what was happening in front of him, he took a deep breath and shouted, "Dogen, have you forgotten the Adamantite Gold that entered the castle's treasury half a year ago?" If you don't come out again, you'll be gone forever!! β
The sound of striking iron stopped abruptly.
A moment later, a louder roar came from inside, larger than Ford's.
"Ford, it's you kid, if you dare to forge that pure gold for someone else, don't think I'll help you build anything in the future, this is a question of my craftsmanship!! This is absolutely unforgivable! β¦β¦β¦ Let them in. β
The latter sentence is addressed to the two shield guards.
They lowered their arms, and each stood to the side, out of the way, allowing the three Fords to pass, but the knights, who were apparently guards, were stopped.
Ford also gestured to a few riders behind him to stop at the door.
It's not that the knights aren't responsible.
It's enough to have Ford, and they're just a starter.
In the whole of Sharpsburg, Ford was second only to Cudelia and Reut in strength. It is also indifferent from an ordinary fourth-order adult dragon (top-level super-level strength), but its survivability and destructive power on the battlefield are far inferior.
As a true Master Monk, plus at least six Magical Transformations/Solidifications.
Plus, he's also a warlock with the blood of the moon.
With just a few of their elite soldiers (in Tygulas, if they weren't at the entry level, they wouldn't even be able to be a soldier), Ford could solve it with two punches, and they definitely couldn't react.
ββββ Warrior Monk's agility and reaction speed are the highest of all classes, and the Wanderer is not matched.
Upon entering the room, Kyle found that it was not as hot as the hall, but the air was filled with a powerful scorching radiation, and even Kyle had a rudimentary fire resistance (boiling water did not hurt it), and he felt a strong burning sensation on his skin.
There will be this phenomenon, and it must be that Dogen has cooled the air with rune magic.
This also shows that even a dwarven master craftsman like Dogen can't withstand the temperature insideββββ just the residual heat radiation after the magic cools down can produce moderate fire damage (300Β°C-800Β°C).
Dogan was a bald head like Ford.
This is common among dwarven craftsmen to avoid burning their hair, but the master blacksmith has a heat-insulating jacket on his beard on his chinββββ for which the beard is a status symbol and must not be damaged.
And in dwarven cultures, cutting a beard is the same shame as a human cutting a man's legs.
His face was wrinkled all over the place, and his eyes were a little cloudy, but after being targeted by his pupils, Kyle felt as if he had been hit by a hammerββββ his telekinesis cultivation had reached an advanced level.
Although it is not as high-level Juggernaut (epic) as Reut can be completely converged.
But his cloudy eyes also tell.
It's only one step away from reaching the epic level, and the Dogen is only one step away.
Dogen looked at the three people who walked in, and sighed: "It turned out to be Young Master Evans!" β
He nodded at Fort again, then turned to look at Kyle and said, "You should be the child that Reut brought back, how lucky you are, at that time Kudelia had just given birth to Evans, and motherhood was strong......... But you're good. β
Kyle was able to withstand the suppression of his mind head-on, which made Dougan look up at him.
Eventually, though, Doggan's eyes turned back to Ford.
Of the three, only his strength can make Dogen face upββββ Evans is estimated to be the son of the lord rather than the lord in his life, and Kyle's strength is not enough.
"Ford boy, what about the adamantite you mean? Take it out. β
After shrugging his shoulders (Kyle had learned this action in his subtle way), Ford found a stone pier and took the Adamantite out of the dimensional bag, which was very dense but not enough to affect the gravitational field.
There is no problem with loading it into the space items.
Although it weighs 300 kilograms, it is actually just a cube of metal with a side length of six or seven centimeters.
As a master blacksmith, Dogen was fascinated by the sight of the golden, but glowing blue metal, and stroked them as if he were his lover.........
After a long time, he put an end to this behavior, and then said:
"Mountains and flames above, such a high purity of pure gold...... Say, to whom? Build something. β
Ford pointed at Kyle, "Kyle needs a new weapon to strengthen his armor as much as possible without compromising his sturdiness, followed by sharpness." "Extremely fast and light, pure gold is not light, can this kid use it?"
"No problem, master, even if it's twice as heavy, I can withstand it."
Kyle replied.
Dogen was noncommittal: "Okay, that's what you said, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes......... In terms of materials, in addition to this pure gold, I need at least two hundred kilograms of Acanon steel, a small amount of Mithril, and a large amount of nuclear crystal powder. I have Acanon Steel and that bit of Mithril here, but I need you to provide it. β
Fu Yu nodded and said: "I have brought all these materials, and there are a lot more Aoneng Steel, but there are relatively few nuclear crystal powders, so you need to use them carefully......... How much do you charge this time? β
Dogen groaned for a moment.
"A tenth of the gold, and the rest of the rest, unless Reut can send troops to garrison our village."
Hearing this, Ford smiled wryly: "That's impossible, this year is relatively dry, the harvest in the area around Sharpsburg is not good, and even more so on the Gnoll's side, they must have a lot of people coming over this year, and Lord Reut's men are not enough." β
Seeing that Dogen looked displeased, Ford hurriedly added.
"But I can call the shots and give you 10,000 gold dragons as compensation for not being able to send troops, and you can use this money to hire mercenary groups or adventurers......"
"Excuse me!"
Before Ford could finish speaking, Dougan stopped the lord's words.
"Do you think we're going to be short of such a little money in Greystone Village? β¦β¦ As a faithful believer in Mother Earth, I will never let a believer (mercenary) like Cassano enter Blackstone Village!! And I really can't trust those adventurers, these people are good and bad, and there is too much scum in them. β
As he spoke, he clenched his fist with one hand and slammed it on the anvil next to him.
As a near-epic smasher (the name of a telekinesis who uses an axe/hammer after reaching the super level, the telekinesis characteristic is a huge concussive force that can smash objects), even if he does not have a charge, he smashes down with a punch, and the powerful concussive force generated also makes the chest of Kyle and Evans, who were caught off guard, feel stuffy.
And the anvil that was directly hit was shaken into a discus.
Seeing this, Kyle rubbed his chest.
I was very helpless.
After hearing Dogen's words, he understood that this dwarf was a star soul god...... To be precise, the devout followers of the Spirit of Tygulas-Gaia. And judging by his performance, he is also extremely disgusted with the god of war Cassano, the mother of shadows, Rose, and the goddess of the sea, Nisdael, who have risen in the last thousand years.
Although Dougan didn't say it directly.
But Kyle reckons that he must think that these beings are all false gods.
In addition, since the Church of the God of War is responsible for the release of mercenary missions, as well as the credibility rating of each mercenary group. The proportion of Cassano's followers among the mercenaries is increasing, and today, more than eighty percent of the mercenaries are Cassano believers.
As the Grand Elder of the Dwarves of the Greystone Clan, Dogen will inevitably use his power to prevent mercenaries from coming to his village, thus preventing Cassano from proselytizing.
"But we don't really have that many men, Doughan, you know, Mistress Cudelia......"
"Of course I know she's pregnant now......... If you can't send troops, then give me some Adamantite, the village is making a chain of giant crossbows, which can send out a hundred crossbow arrows at a time, enough to help us defend the village. β
"But it needs pure gold as the core spring, and the strength of other materials is not enough, only the ten in it... No, one in twentieth is enough! β
Ford looks at Kyle and lets him, the client, make up his mind.
Although he didn't want to lose the Adamantite, Kyle didn't want Dougan to be unhappy, and if he didn't want it, it would definitely affect the quality of his weapons.
Who has the technology in their hands!
Kyle had no choice but to nod and said, "Then one-fifteenth, no less master, if you want, I can go to Greystone Village to help your clan fight against the gnolls, although the strength is meager, but as a mage, I believe I still have some use." β
Dogan nodded in agreement, looking satisfied, and a smile appeared on his face.
He laughed and said:
"Then it's settled, one-fifteenth of pure gold. You're good, boy, I've looked at you again, and here, let's talk about what this weapon should look like. β
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed Kyle's arm and dragged the boy aside.
The cocoon on Dogan's hand is so thick that it looks like a stone (Wuji: The surface of the dead skin is too thick to detect its properties!). And the power is so great that Kyle was dragged away by him without even having the strength to resist.
After coming to a table, although there were still quite a few drawings on it, Dogen swept them away.
At a glance, Kyle could see that these were all blueprints of the giant crossbow that Dogen was talking about. It was supposed to be a huge rune machine, and the parts on it were extremely precise, and the number of parts was very large, so it was really difficult to complete. As for the power, it's hard to say, but it shouldn't be too weak to see Dogen's self-confidence.
"What kind of weapon do you want, a long sword, a short sword, a dagger, a broadsword or a scimitar."
"Do you have paper, I want to draw it myself."
Dougan had no objection to Kyle's request, "It's fine, but I'll have to show you." β
"No problem."
