Chapter 0293: The Legend of the Forger Worm
In his more than 70 years as a foundry, the Thieves' Guild will always remember your immortal exploits and erect a monument to commemorate his exquisite armor casting and repairing enchanted suits.
"Huh?" Guan Heng read this, and suddenly found that at the bottom of the tombstone, there were a few lines of small words: "My dear friend Zagu, although there is a huge age difference between you and me, it is the honor of my life to be able to get acquainted with you, the kind of strange insect-type demonic beast that you never forgot before you died, I have found it at the end of the Monster Grand Canyon." β
"It's a pity that you died in my hurry back here, Zaku, my friend, and this strange insect is only worthy of you, so I used my magic to put it into hibernation and bury it under your tombstone to keep my best friend company."
"However, insect-type demonic beasts are also living creatures of God, and I don't want them to turn into rotten dust here after endless years, because it is too cruel to casually deprive a life of the right to live."
"No matter how many years later, if someone finds my message when they are cleaning the grave of my friend Zagu, it means that the strange insect has been with my friend long enough, and the day has come for them to see the light again. These are the words of the half-elf, Chakarn. β
"This is Chakarn's message?!" Guan Heng was shocked when he saw this: "The footprints of this half-elf identification master are really everywhere, and he and Zagu, the greatest casting master of the Thieves Guild, are actually close friends. β
Although Guan Heng and Chakahn have never met, since Guan Heng set foot on the land of Ashton Continent, he has benefited a lot from Chakahn, and the inheritance of the Black Iron Wood Staff, the Appraiser's Badge and the Great Appraisal Technique are all thanks to Chakahn.
"Now, I've seen Chakarn's message here again......" Guan Heng stroked it gently: "It's like an invisible thread, pulling between me and him." β
β¦β¦
Half a minute later, Guan Heng dug a shallow pit in front of Master Zagu's tombstone, and there were two things in it: a wooden box, which contained all kinds of small things such as hammers and chisels, which at first glance were the high-end tools used by Master Zagu during his lifetime, which were treasures that made Heinz salivate.
The other is a hexahedron that shimmers with metallic light, it is made of a piece of clay, and Guan Heng is no stranger to this thing.
This thing, something that Chakarn unintentionally fused when he was conducting alchemy experiments, has a strange function, that is, it can repair the cracks of various precious metal props.
Any crack in the metal that appears will be intact if it is lightly plastered with some plaster dust on the cracked part, but when it is not officially named and is not shown to the world, Chakarn mysteriously disappears with the plaster in search of the whereabouts of the five main gods.
Therefore, except for Chakarn and Guan Heng, who inherited some of his inheritance memories, no one knew this strange plaster at all.
Guan Heng looked at the strange gypsum hexahedron in his hand and shook it slightly, and found that there was actually a sound of dang chang, dang chang, that is, something rolling inside.
"Hmm...... What's in there? Guan Heng was a little curious, and at this moment, he found that an inconspicuous "paper corner" leaked out of the small wooden box containing Zagu's tools, Guan Heng twisted it with his fingers and gently pulled it out, "Bang!" "It turned out to be a booklet in the mezzanine of a wooden box.
"Huh? It turned out that this was a note-taking codex from the time of his death. Guan Heng casually flipped through it and suddenly found that there were some very interesting things recorded on it.
Zagu's notes are all about his life and experience in forging various utensils, Guan Heng is not very interested in those, just read and write, and the last few pages of the notes make Guan Heng have a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
In his later years, Zagu read some ancient classics and learned that there was a strange insect-shaped monster in the Grand Canyon of Warcraft. This bizarre insect beast usually consists of dozens of individuals, its appearance is inconspicuous, its body is no more than the size of a grain of rice, and it has six flexible claws, they are the most intelligent of the insect beasts, and their name is "Smith Worm".
With their dexterous claws and numerous compound eyes on their heads, the Smith Worm's greatest interest is to mend things, for example, if a stone or a tree has a crack, the Smith Worm will swarm and spit out strange crystals that open their mouths to fill the gaps in the stone or tree.
Since the Smith Worm is an omnivorous beast, whether it is meat, metal, trees, or ores, they can eat it, and some undigested food scraps become crystals that the Smith Worm spits out to fill the gaps in the object.
In ancient times, some forging masters, in order to repair the scars on some enchanted props or ordinary weapons and defense equipment that are difficult for humans to find with the naked eye, captured and trained some "forge worms" to help repair the damaged parts of weapons and armor.
There is no doubt that the Smith Worm is an excellent assistant to the human casters, and later the domesticated Smith Worm can not only repair tools, but even help forge simple and easy-to-make weapons and armor, which directly contributed to the appearance of a large number of Smith Worms around humans.
The caster insect is intelligent, has a high comprehension, and is hard-working, diligent and capable, and can continue to work even without rest or food for more than a month, and has become an indispensable treasure for the caster for hundreds of years, especially when repairing and manufacturing a large number of military defense equipment, the caster insects are even more skilled.
However, in a natural disaster that occurred later, the habitat of the Forger Insect Group in the Grand Canyon of Warcraft was severely damaged, and the lack of food for the juvenile nymph stage, coupled with the rupture of the genetic chain of the race, greatly reduced the reproduction rate, and most of the wild Forger Insects ...... Extinct.
The gradual extinction of the wild smith worm did not cause people to warn, but made them use the artificially bred smith worm as if they were pumping bones and sucking the marrow, and finally, more than 30 years after the extinction of the wild smith worm, the last captive-bred smith worm also died alone in the workshop.
People once again paid a heavy price for their short-sightedness, that is, to let the Smith Worm, a strange insect-type magical beast, be annihilated in their memories......
Forge Master Zagu, from the ancient books to read these materials of the Forge Worm from prosperity to decline, and he couldn't help but sigh, he never forgot to go to the Demon Beast Grand Canyon to find the root of the Forge Worm, but he has been unable to make the trip because of his frail health and illness, and he can't afford to travel long distances.
