Chapter 32: The Blacksmith Returns
"Uh-huh?" Kama didn't expect John to think for a long time and come to such a result. What about the strength of the good one? The one who said that the good one is good at it? The one who said that it was good to figure out its own merits and then start fighting for supremacy and then dominate the small world? What the hell is the blacksmith? What the hell is the chef? Master, this guy is not right, saying that he has been surviving in battle? Catherine really wants to pull John's soul out directly to take a good look, what the hell does this guy think.
Lily on the side was first startled by John's sudden movements, but when she heard John's words, she was interested in the information inside: "Blacksmith, cook, master, what are these two?"
"Don't you know what a cook and a blacksmith are?" John looked at Lily who was asking, and asked, "Chef first, if the blacksmith doesn't have it, how can you smelt your metal?"
"If that's the case, we'll ask the grey dwarves or the black goblins, who have a specialty of working with metal, but it's very expensive. When Lily heard John's rhetorical question, she was stunned for a moment and replied, "Is this what the master said about the blacksmith?"
John nodded and said, "You can understand it that way. As for the chef, it's just like I used to make jerky, and I make all kinds of ingredients into delicious dishes. Upon hearing this, Lily swallowed. John's just roasting the meat with a stone had already made Lily feel delicious, but now that she heard that it was just a simple treatment, Lily felt that the saliva in her mouth was pouring out like a spring.
Well, for some reason, when I heard that John was going to be the strongest chef, Lily, felt that John had become great and able to make the food so delicious.
"Isn't there no chef in this world?" John touched his chin: "Doesn't that mean that if I open a restaurant, it's an exclusive business? That is, the moment I become a chef, I'm already the first in purgatory? Well, there are also gray dwarves and black goblins doing this, that's okay, at least not too boring. It's decided, I'm going to be the best blacksmith in purgatory!"
"What about your power, what about your power beyond the people of Purgatory?" asked Kamlain, who was puzzled.
John shook his hand: "Of course, power is used when forging, how can you forge good things without strength?"
Kamherine asked again, "What about your fire control?"
"Of course, it is used when smelting ore, and if you don't have a strong enough flame, you can't handle the rough stone well, and you can't get good equipment without good raw materials. John said with a look of reason.
"Why haven't you thought about turning these advantages into combat power? Aren't you used to fighting?" said Camerine, feeling strange, and asked John rhetorically.
John sat down and sighed, "It's only when I'm tired of endless battles that I think of this." And I promised Ann because I was only here for leisure, and it would be better if I could find a new goal, but it would definitely not be a return to the old life. John also knew what Camerine wanted to fight for, saying, "You don't have to be disappointed and you won't see the unknown." Think about it, this world suddenly has a lot of high-quality equipment that doesn't exist originally, what does it mean for the already belligerent Purgatory Demon Race? That is a more fierce battle, and it is even very likely that the original victor will die directly, which is more effective than me to change the fate of the demon race I meet, after all, weapons can be transmitted to other people. ”
When Camerin thought about it, it was the same, so she naturally didn't continue to persuade John: "Okay, so be it, if you hand over the weapon to them, you may change their fate." ”
Isn't the biggest change in fate life and death? The damned survived, the undeserved died, and directly interfered with the largest part of fate, even if it was called a subversion of fate.
Well, blacksmiths do, and besides, do you really think that being a blacksmith will keep you out of fighting?"
John was also aware of the crisis that lay behind this. Indeed, according to Lily's words, John also knew that most of the rare craftsmen in purgatory, such as the gray dwarves and black goblins, were controlled by various powerful forces, and their personal freedom was severely restricted, working day and night every day, creating all kinds of things according to the intentions of the higher-ups, although most of the creatures in purgatory would not mind - after all, there was enough food every day, and life would not be threatened, but John would not like this kind of life. When someone wants to force him to appear, John will let them know what the wrath of the Count of Purgatory is.
Katherine knew that she had no way to persuade John to fight, and after knowing John's intentions, she had no reason why John had to fight, and since John's path did not contradict the direction she wanted to see, she naturally let John do what she wanted. Not only that, but Kamlaine also guides John to find what he wants, whether it's ore or something else.
After making up his mind about what to do, John knew that the cave could not be left behind. According to Catherine and herself, there is no ore that can be used to forge metal, and there is no coal or anything else that can be used to heat the ore, and it is only a temporary foothold, and there is no condition for further expansion. Therefore, John decided to get out of here.
Lily was confused. Lily still thinks that John was sent by a lord from another place to attack the town, and if this is the purpose, this small cave is now a very good hiding place, not only hidden, but also close to the town, and has an abundant source of food and fresh water, so it doesn't take much effort to sustain the needs of survival. But now, that John had decided to leave, wasn't he afraid of the blame of his lord, the powerful being who could wipe out his soul with the mere shadow of an illusion?
John, unaware of Lily's misunderstanding, walked out with the little dragon vulture. There weren't any resources John needed in this forest, so he wouldn't be here. It's uncertain where we're heading now. Following Catyline's instructions, it was a good idea to go to the mountains, where it was easier to find all the ores and coal John wanted than in the forest.
Lily watched John walk for a while, then stood stunned, and then turned directly, walking in a direction that had nothing to do with before, without a little hesitation, her eyes widened: Could it be that the indescribable great being, who has been paying attention to his master, can still pass on his instructions at any time?
