Chapter 3 Three Years

Suddenly, the thud of burning coal pulled Oschin back from his memory.

Glancing at the color of the flames in the furnace, Oschin stood up and pulled the bellows to raise the temperature again.

After two months of cooperation, Oschin was always able to cooperate with Uncle Aubert to complete the refining of the metal at the right time.

Time passed through my fingers like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, another three years had passed.

It's still the blacksmith's workshop of Uncle Obert, and Oschin is still here to help.

But now he has not only simply helped pull the bellows, but also the opening of the weapon.

Sometimes I will take advantage of the uncle's rest time to hammer the metal with the assistance of soul power to find the feel.

To this end, he deliberately spent eight Silver Soul Coins, asking Uncle to give him a pair of fine iron casting hammers according to the style of the casting hammer in the omniscient library.

As for the eight Silver Soul Coins, they are part of the salary given to him by his helper uncle in the past three years, and in addition to these, he still has 22 Silver Soul Coins.

Of course, the work of hammer picking began last year, when Oschin was five years old.

At that time, he could finally pick up the casting hammer with the assistance of soul power, so it was logical that Oschin began the actual operation process of soul guide manufacturing.

The method of forging metal given to him in the Omniscient Library is not the famous Cloak Hammer Method, but the Double Hammer Casting Method with a smaller hammer in the left hand and a larger hammer in the right hand.

That's why he asked Uncle to help him build a pair of casting hammers.

Because of this casting method that is different from the traditional casting method, he was also questioned by the uncle, but fortunately, the uncle didn't say much when he saw the decentness he used in the end.

Having never seen the Cloak Hammer Method, Auschin had no way to compare the two hammer methods, but he himself was satisfied with the final result of the double hammer forging.

This casting method requires that when forging metal, it is necessary to stand in a lunge and start to exert force from the calf, and the right hand hammer is the main forging, and the left hand hammer is mainly for auxiliary work such as turning over and trimming the shape.

In the process of forging, you should pay attention to integrating your soul power into the metal as evenly as possible through the casting hammer.

In order to enhance the affinity of the metal to its own soul power, it can also better perceive the state of the metal, and it is easier to forge the spirit forging metal.

Such high demands made Oschin suffer a lot when practicing, and he spent an entire year laying the foundation of a blacksmith.

If it weren't for the existence of a simulated training ground with an omniscient library, Oschin wouldn't have known where to find the materials used for practice.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and just last night Oschin finally completed his first metal spirit forging in the omniscient library.

Today, when the uncle is resting, Oschin can try his first real all-out metal refining and forging in reality, and Oschin can't help but feel a little excited when he thinks of this.

Of course, Oschin's progress in the past three years is not just that.

As he became more proficient in meditation and his spiritual power grew, Oschin no longer had to rely on guidance in the library to complete his meditations.

Now his meditations are done on his own before going to sleep, and when he feels mentally exhausted, he goes into the library to practice soul guide making, of course, at this stage, it seems that it should be called striking iron.

Because he found that his mental exhaustion would be reset as soon as he entered the library, Oschin chose this method to improve his learning efficiency.

Not only that, but through the morning exercises, the size of the soul power operation in the battle was also very skillful.

Of course, the most important thing is that two months ago, he felt the bottleneck, that is, the feeling that no matter how long you meditate, your soul power cannot grow.

Oschin understands that he should have reached the limit before obtaining the soul ring, which means that if he awakens the martial soul now, he should be the kind of "genius" who is full of innate soul power.

Thinking about what I didn't have, the morning time passed, and after lunch at noon, it was usually the uncle's rest time.

Oh, and the word is that Oscar is no longer in the blacksmith's shop, and when he was four years old, he followed Oberkin and Cloud Frost into the city food stalls to help.

There are only two blacksmiths left, Oschin and Aubert.

At noon after the meal, the uncle went to rest, and Auschin went into the workshop by himself, and chose an ordinary piece of iron material the size of a cauldron on a rural earthen stove.

Running the soul power, laboriously moving it to the furnace to heat, as the iron gradually turned red, Oschin's spirit became more and more concentrated, he wanted to forge this piece of iron into a spirit forged iron essence and then make it into a casting hammer in his right hand.

Through the scanning capabilities of the omniscient library, Oschin kept a close eye on the heating of the iron.

At the moment when the iron finished heating, the left hand hammer lifted the iron onto the forged cutting board.

lunge, calf force, right hand hammer smashed heavily on the iron, and at the same time transmitted a soul power into the iron.

Taking advantage of the time when the right hand hammer was raised high by the reaction force, the left hand hammer was also in the same position, and smashed a soul force into the iron.

After that, the right hand hammer with the power of the calf falls, and the process is repeated.

If you listen closely, you can see that the sound of Oschin hammering iron is more dense than Aubert's, and it is very rhythmic.

Thanks to the scanning function of the omniscient library, Austin can clearly perceive where there are more impurities in the iron, whether the infiltration of soul power is even, and whether the heat of the iron is enough.

All of this can greatly improve the quality and efficiency of Aschin metal refining.

But even with such a handy auxiliary function, it took Oschin more than two hours of non-stop hammering to finally complete the casting.

To be honest, the last half hour of Oschin was completely stiff by perseverance, both physically and mentally at the limit.

If it weren't for the belief that he didn't really want his first forging and casting in reality to end in failure, Austin would have given up long ago.

So the moment the casting was completed, the casting hammer in Oschin's two hands fell directly to the ground.

His face was covered with sweat from tiredness or physical exhaustion, and his face was also pale from exhaustion of soul power.

But all this was nothing when the steady light of the hammer on his right hand lying on the casting table appeared.

According to the teachings in the Omniscient Library, Oschin's fingertips were dripping a few drops of blood on this spirit wrought iron refining hammer that would accompany him for a long time.

Suddenly, a subtle feeling came to Oschin's heart, and he subconsciously held the handle of the hammer with his right hand, and at this moment the casting hammer seemed to be an extension of his right hand.

The feeling of being like an arm and a finger is magical, as if the weight of the casting hammer is not there.

After a short period of excitement, there was a deep sense of exhaustion, and Oschin didn't care about anything else, so he found a clean corner in this workshop, sat down and began to run the soul power pranayama, especially the arms, so that the soul power was dredged, so as not to leave a dark wound

"It seems that the left hammer will not be built until the day after tomorrow," was Oschin's last thought before entering a meditative state.

Three days later, in front of his uncle, Oschin used the spirit forging double hammer he had finished beating and spent ten minutes to create a fine iron kitchen knife.

As soon as the fire was quenched, Uncle snatched the kitchen knife directly from Oschin's hand.

After carefully looking at it, Aubert said with admiration in his eyes: "It's amazing, it's amazing, Xiaoqin, your level of refining metal is no worse than the big blacksmith shop in the city."

The key is that the speed is still fast, and there is still a month to go, and you will awaken the martial spirit.

Let's not talk about whether you can have soul power, this month, we will cooperate with you to refine the metal, and I will build it.

Strive to get a batch of high-quality weapons and armor to open up the situation in Soto City, and the money we make will be divided in half. ”

Naturally, Oschin has no opinion on this, and he still needs this kind of exercise now.

And he can feel that the soul power is becoming more resilient in this process of continuous consumption and recovery, and I believe that after the martial soul awakens and obtains the soul ring, it will surprise him.
