Bite...... While......
In the forging room of the blacksmith shop, Mingchen's forging continues. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this time, he had just finished shaping a helmet and was in the process of quenching the final and most critical process.
Originally, for a seasoned forging master like Mingchen, this was not a difficult thing at all, and even if he failed, it would have already become commonplace. But Mingchen is extremely careful now!
Because, he added a small amount of "pure soil" to the co-solvent mixed coolant used for this quenching!
It's just that he doesn't know what kind of changes this earth element, which is nourished by the ancient tree of life for many years and contains rich life energy, will bring to this piece of equipment!
This is what Mingchen only learned in the previous life after becoming a master forger, adding some high-grade element materials that are not in the drawings during the forging process can make some changes in the equipment!
It's even possible to forge a completely new piece of equipment!
That's a brand new piece of equipment! What many blacksmiths dream of!
However, forging a new piece of equipment is not the same as forging a superlative, it may not be better than the original equipment attributes, just like the mutations that occur when a creature evolves, it may not be stronger than before!
It's entirely possible to forge a piece of garbage!
However, as long as a brand new piece of equipment can be forged, it means that the blacksmith can make a large number of blueprints for this equipment, and as long as it is not a blueprint with too poor attributes, there will be many blacksmiths willing to pay for it! After all, the blueprints in the game are not so easy to obtain.
Except, of course, Mingchen, because he has the [Titan's Forged Slab] that can be called an artifact!
However, this is definitely a lucrative deal for other forgers!
It's just that forging new equipment isn't something that can be done with just a few high-end materials! What properties of the material to add, how much to add, in which step of the process to add, what auxiliary materials are needed, that all need to be carefully calculated!
So Mingchen doesn't plan to forge a brand new helmet now. He just wanted to forge a masterpiece and be satisfied.
Even so, it's not easy! First of all, copper ore is the lowest level ore on the Magic Road, and whether he can withstand the powerful elemental energy of the Pure Land is a question!
Moreover, adding materials that do not exist in the drawings will reduce the success rate of equipment forging, but this does not have an exact number even in the game, so no one knows how much the success rate will be reduced, and Mingchen can only judge based on the experience of the previous life, which may be related to the complexity of adding materials!
Therefore, Mingchen only added a little bit of [Pure Earth] to the mixture, and even so, he had to carefully observe every change in the helmet!
Only in this case can the importance of a blacksmith's operation in the forging process be truly demonstrated, because the slightest mistake can lead to the failure of the forge!
Mingchen had failed twice before, the first time was due to the fact that the [Pure Land] was put too much, and the helmet could not withstand the huge energy and was destroyed! The second time was because during quenching, the helmet absorbed the energy in the mixture unevenly, resulting in the failure of forging!
Mingchen has already decided, if he fails again this time, he will not try again! He was reluctant to use these Pure Soil like this!
Luckily, it didn't happen!
"System Prompt: Congratulations on successfully forging the [Tenacity Truth Helmet], gaining 1000 experience points, 5 points of forging skills, and intermediate apprentices: 58/500."
It worked!
Mingchen has gained higher experience points and forging skill points for this forging, but what he is more concerned about now is the attributes of this helmet!
Helmet of Truth of Tenacity (Finesse)
Heavily armored head
Armor: 56
Intelligence: +8
Stamina: +12
Effect: Unleash a seismic spell on a single target within 25 meters, dealing 100 (+Spell Bonus) Nature damage. Cooldown: 2 minutes.
Required Level: 8
Durability: 50/50
"Made by the Stars of Tomorrow"
Mingchen looked at the changes in the attributes of the helmet, although he did not forge new equipment, but he could still see that the "Pure Land" was definitely a super baby!
On this helmet, its earth elemental power and life energy are well represented! Not only does it increase the helmet's armor by 30 points, its stamina by 4 points, and even its durability is doubled, but it also adds a natural spell damage skill, which is definitely a powerful skill!
But!
Although this is a high-quality helmet, Mingchen feels that there is a high probability that no one is willing to pay for this helmet!
Because Mingchen felt that it was a complete waste for damage skill effects like Earthquake Technique to appear on this piece of equipment!
Since in the magical world, the only two classes that can be equipped with heavy armor are warriors and knights!
And the warrior is a profession that basically does not need intelligence attributes, and even if he wears a piece of equipment with intelligence attribute bonuses, due to the warrior's professional characteristics, the income from intelligence attributes is very low, resulting in a greatly reduced damage to this skill!
Although the Holy Knight has a high intelligence attribute benefit, the spell bonus will be more obvious, but the main color of the Holy Knight's horned warrior in the team is often the nurse who stands at the end to add blood, and this kind of thing is not his job! Besides, if he only has such a damage skill, how much damage can he do?
But...... Mingchen's heart suddenly moved, and he thought: This equipment should not be specially prepared for himself!?
Although he added all the free attribute points to the strength attribute before this, he can also add the attribute points to the intelligence in the future, or make a few more pieces of intelligence attribute equipment, and he does not have almost no benefit from the intelligence attribute like a warrior, he uses the talent of [Lonely Fang Self-Appreciation], which makes his income from all attributes very good!
And he doesn't have a clear position in the team like the Holy Knight, just like he can add blood to everyone with the [Healing Soldier Bracer] he forged before, he can think of himself as a mage when he wears this helmet!
It can be said that what kind of equipment he wears, what kind of role he can play!
This is something he never dared to think about even in his previous life!
It's just that if you want to reach that point, it's not an overnight thing, at least you have to make up a set of equipment corresponding to various characters first, which is already a huge project! And it is also necessary to plan their own free attribute allocation from the new.
It seems that there is really a long way to go!
However, Mingchen has at least opened a window for himself now, and in the future, he may be able to proudly tell the world that the forge can be a panacea for the team!
