Chapter 22 Beginning to forge
Chen Mo felt like he had put down a big stone in his heart, and he looked a lot more relaxed, Hephaestus looked at this strange reaction and asked, "Is there any problem?" โ
"No, not now. Next, please trouble the Lord God, you to build a weapon for me. โ
Seeing that Chen Mo refused to speak, Hephaestus didn't plan to continue asking, tilted his head and looked at Hestia who was reading a book, and said, "Next, I'm going to the workshop, you..."
"Leave me alone, I'll just read here." After the defeat, Hestia could only vent her resentment on these books.
It is said that if it weren't for the fact that Hestia could support himself at that time, Hephaestus made up his mind to drive him away from his side, if not, he would still be nested in his own study, and he would have become a housemaiden without leaving the house.
Muttering an "oh", Hephaestus took a crimson hammer from the wall. The hammer had no extra tricks, but it was worthy of attention, and Hephaestis kept it in the pouch she always wore around her waist.
Then, she walked over to the transparent crystal box and unlocked it. Inside the box were several pieces of metalโthe silver-glowing "Mithril" she had chosen from her weapon's materials to forge the halberd's blade.
The result is a delicate metal that is lighter and harder than iron, and then far easier to forge than iron.
Even a woman with slender wrists, a female blacksmith without special strength, can use this metal relatively easily, and it is worthy of being a high-quality metal.
A few pieces of black jade-like metallic "tough gold" increase the flexibility of the halberd.
"Come here and get it." In the face of Hephaestus's unceremonious order, Chen Mo ran over to work as a coolie, which was related to his own weapon.
After selecting the rare metals, Hephaestus walked out of the study, going to the station's workshop in order to carry out the forging work.
As a station of the family of craftsmen, the importance of the workshop is placed in the second place, occupying nearly half of the space of the entire station.
"Kami-sama?" Seeing Hephaestus and a strange man leaving the study with metal, the sturdy woman waiting outside was puzzled.
Hephaestus said succinctly, "Tsubaki, since you're here, I don't have to go through the trouble of looking for it, I need your help to build a weapon now." โ
"Huh? What do you want? โ
Chen Mo looked at the sturdy woman called Tsubaki in front of him, and all kinds of information flashed through his mind.
A woman with black hair and red eyes, and an eyepatch on her left eye, she is a half-dwarf born from a hybrid of humans and continental dwarves from the Far East, located at the apex of the Hephaestus family, and is the most powerful blacksmith in Olarie, with the strength of a first-level adventurer lv.5.
Since Hephaestus needs her help, it seems that this time the difficulty is indeed beyond imagination, I remember that in the original book, he made Bell's weapon for Hestia, but he could do it alone, but now he needs help.
"No problem!" Tsubaki agreed to the gods' requests very simply.
"May I ask who the weapon is made for?" However, driven by curiosity, he asked the doubts in his heart, and the last time the two of them played was the only weapon created for Olalie's only lv.7.
"No, it's right at hand."
"How so!" The implication is that Chen Mo's strength is not worthy of being so exciting.
"He will be like you, become my child, with the strength of lv.5, which is also a big help for our family. By the way, although I will contribute for you for free, but Tsubaki is paid, and I don't want the blood and sweat of the children to be wasted. The previous sentence is to Tsubaki, and the latter sentence is to Chen Mo, in order to make the family more harmonious, Hephaestus thought a lot, and let Chen Mo owe a favor as soon as he came up, and the threat to Tsubaki's position as the head of the regiment will be greatly reduced in the future.
"Ha, I see." After hearing this answer, Tsubaki's attitude suddenly became much more enthusiastic.
Holding the refined metal in both hands, he followed the two women past the workshops, watching them smile and greet the people they met, before coming to the innermost door, which was the largest in the workshop in terms of scale.
Looking at the closed gates and the workshops of different sizes along the way, as long as there are people, there will be classes, and the use of workshops is like this, and the more skilled ones are better facilities.
After pushing the door open, Hephaestus quickly stepped into the role of the forge, "What kind of weapon do you need?" "Although he has already seen Hestia's depiction, it is safer to ask me, and Hephaestus is quite clear about the unreliability of the gods.
Chen Mo stepped on it, and a real air turned, and an iron Fang Tian Painting Halberd slowly floated from the ground, and reached out to take this weapon with the same shape as the alloy halberd that was discarded by himself, although the quality was good, but it couldn't keep up with his own rhythm, it was time to update his equipment.
Of course, such a coquettish show of alchemy attracted the attention of Tsubaki and Hephaestus, but although it was an accident compared to the goddess, the performance was still indifferent.
As an ordinary blacksmith, the half-dwarf is obviously more curious than her main god, and this ability to create void creatures suddenly made her eyes shine, and she had to pull the reason into a natural skill, so as to avoid the other party's endless questioning.
"I need a weapon like this, and I don't require much in other aspects, except for the weight, which is as heavy as possible."
"In this case, you will need to use the iron mother as the main material to build the halberd, and this part of Tsubaki will be handed over to you." After hearing Chen Mo's request, Hephaestus had already thought of a forging method.
Because of the difference in ability and strength between the two women, the requirements for the craftsmanship of the halberd blade and the halberd handle are different, and it is most appropriate to forge them separately.
In fact, Hephaestis thinks of himself as a smelter more than a god.
This ingrained craftsmanship did not give up on making her own weapons halfway, because it was contrary to her principles, and if she wanted to do it, she had to do it with all her might.
After the divine power was sealed, as a woman, she no longer had the strength to pick up those heavy things, so she needed Tsubaki's cooperation.
Lv.5's Tsubaki has far surpassed the boundaries of ordinary people, and it is the most suitable to create this halberd handle that does not require much craftsmanship.
Hephaestus is the forging goddess of the heavenly realm, and the forging technology is famous for this forging goddess of the heavenly realm, although she has sealed the divine power and lives with people, her forging technology has not weakened at all, although there is no divine power to support and there are no materials in the heavenly realm, but after all, the gap between man and god is not something that can be smoothed out in a short time, and the halberd blade with her forging process is very suitable.
After entering the working state, the two of them regarded Chen Mo on the side as air, first opened the magic energy furnace, put the metal into the smelting, and took advantage of this gap to start making molds, preventing Chen Mo's help.
