5. Foothold Chapter 104 Alchemy Fire Opened
"My lord, there is the most red iron and copper here, which can be used to make agricultural tools and daily necessities, and below is black iron, which can already be used to make sophisticated weapons, as well as refined copper and cold steel, which we don't recognize all, but we can definitely be more precious, and they are good things with different effects when added to Lou Ware!"
Donald nodded in appreciation, picked up a small piece of refined copper that had been refined, and found that this metal was similar to brass in his previous life, very similar to gold, but because the mass was much lighter than gold, it could not be used for impersonation.
It is said that the pure gold generated in the refined copper veins after the strange is golden with bright silver, and the texture is very light like the refined copper, but it is one of the strongest and strongest metals in the main world, and it has a strong magic conduction, which is most suitable for creating magical weapons and equipment to attack the xìng.
Donald nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand to put away the rare metals.
"You've done a great job, and now I have a new assignment for you!"
As he spoke, Donald took out two pieces of metal ore, which were black iron and hematite.
"You must know these two ores, and there is a third small amount of rare metal mixed with them, but the value is very huge, I hope you can refine this metal for me, this task is a territorial secret, and you can't tell the outside world a little information!"
Originally, Donald planned to refine it quietly by himself, but although he thought that although the Book of Truth could instantly refine all the metal components inside the ore, there were two shortcomings that could not be solved.
The first is that this kind of purification requires some energy, although there is only a small amount each time, but it cannot support the amount of ore that needs to be refined, and it is a lot to accumulate.
The second disadvantage is that all the substances refined from the Book of Truth must be embodied into some kind of finished product, for example, iron ore can only be exchanged for iron swords and other items, otherwise it will be replaced by simple iron ingots, then it will become the purest iron metal, and it will not be able to have the excellent genus of those finished materials.
It is important to know that steel products in previous lives were also classified according to the content of carbon and other substances in them, so as to be manufactured into different products.
Pure iron metal cannot be forged into good weapons and equipment without adding some other components. In this way, it seems that using the Book of Truth is much easier on the surface, but the actual forging procedure is more cumbersome. It's better to let these blacksmiths slowly smelt and forge themselves.
After all, the Book of Truth is just a relatively dull artifact that doesn't know how to think, not a true God.
So he can't redeem everything in the Book of Truth, and there are still some things that need to be artificially crafted.
Donald knew that in order to refine the minerals, the two Sī blacksmiths in the territory would not be enough, so he spent energy to rebuild a blacksmith shop on a vacant lot in the town that had not yet been planned, and let the two blacksmiths and their apprentices work in it.
A real blacksmith is a truly well-equipped blacksmith that is embodied in the Book of Truth, unlike the Terran building blacksmith in the game, which is only responsible for upgrading the technology level of weapons and equipment in the game.
In this way, the equipment for refining ore and forging utensils was complete, and when the two blacksmiths saw the blacksmith shop prepared for them, they did not mention the excitement in their hearts.
He immediately took the two pieces of ore that Donald had brought out, and compared them to the apprentices to make a fire to the furnace, ready to test how well the new iron-making furnace would work.
Soon after, the two blacksmiths came to report with some trepidation.
"My lord, both black iron and hematite have been smelted, but the rare metal you said has not been refined!"
Magical metals such as blue-veined gold are very rare, not to mention ordinary blacksmiths, even some learned scholars do not know about them, and the more famous Adamantite Mithril two magical metals are widely known, but for most people, they are just legends, and they may not be able to see the real thing in a lifetime.
"The ore containing that metal has never melted, and we estimate that the flame temperature is insufficient, unless there is a special alchemy potion to heat up, or the furnace built by the legendary dwarves in the place of earth fire, otherwise we will not be able to separate it from the two iron ores. ”
Hearing the embarrassed explanation of the two blacksmiths, Donald's heart moved and said: "It is troublesome to make a heat-raising potion, it takes a lot of time, and the problem you said is not enough temperature, I don't know if it can be solved with magic flames?"
So Donald himself came to the furnace, and after the two blacksmiths had made preparations, he stretched out a hand and unleashed his own demonic flame.
His magic flame is an ability obtained from the fire demon, and after being absorbed by the demon hunter's ability, it has completely become a spell-like ability of its own, which can be cast at will, and it can have the power of a second-level spell when it is sent out, which is used to heat the iron furnace, but it is the most suitable to melt the metal.
Although the Demon Flame does not necessarily have the high temperature of the industrialized high-temperature flame in his previous life, it is a combustion reaction that occurs with the root of magic and fire elements, under the combined action of magic power and high temperature, it is more suitable for decomposing capacity substances, and it is not suitable to destroy the original structure and genus of the substance, even if it is a high-temperature-resistant blue-veined magic gold, it cannot withstand the long-term smelting of the Demon Flame, and soon the surface of the ore has been red and there are signs of melting.
An hour later, these pieces of ore were refined under the cooperation of the three of them, and about two hundred catties of ore were refined into nearly ten catties of hematite, seven or eight catties of black iron, and a small piece of blue gold smaller than a nail concubine.
"Your Lord!" "It's done!"
The two blacksmiths shouted excitedly, poured the separated metal solution into the crucible, and waited for it to cool.
A few minutes later, after Donald had the blue gold in his hands, he ordered the Book of Truth to create a magic coin according to the template he had analyzed and designed.
Because there is only one magic metal, blue gold, it is only suitable for minting a single xìng essence of the magic coin. A small piece of blue gold took only about a third of the time, and the Dalaran coin that Donald designed for the Book of Truth was officially unveiled.
The coin is in the form of a gold sè with a blue sè halo, and the obverse is the coat of arms of the Merlinna family, mainly a griffin, and the reverse side is an elegant ancient Elf depiction of two words, arcane and truth. The appearance alone is already a work of art, enough to attract attention, and even if there is no unique genus, there will definitely be aristocrats, scholars, and artists willing to collect it.
Donald experimented with it, took the magic coin in his hand, and injected mana into it, only to consume one-tenth of his own mana before filling the coin, which was only an inch and a half in diameter, with energy.
Secretly estimated, because he has two professions and has a heroic talent, so his mana is at least three times higher than that of a normal bronze early stage mage, so it means that this magic coin can store at least one-third of the mana of a bronze mage, which is xìng has surpassed the magic coins made by the ancient magic empire Ban Nai a lot, and it is worthy of being the book of truth After absorbing the structure of the silver moon coin, the arcane magic circle that was re-analyzed and constructed was more superior than the core circle in the original magic coin.
"It's a pity that there are no other magic metals such as Mithril and Adamantite, otherwise the three types of magic coins of attack, defense, and support can be mass-produced and minted. ”
The next thing that needs to be done is to refine a large amount of ore, accumulate blue-veined magic gold, and wait until you get the two treasures of Adamantite and Mithril in the future, and then you can mint magic coins belonging to Dalaran in batches.
Donald then deposited all the remaining thirty tons of ore in the blacksmith's shop, ordered the two blacksmiths, and promised to reward each of them with ten gold soles.
It's not that Donald is stingy and only willing to give such a small reward, but for a family of five, one gold sol is enough for their family to live a rich life for a year, so ten gold coins is really a huge amount of money for a civilian family. If you give more rewards, not only is it not necessarily a good thing, but I am afraid that it will probably cause them trouble.
And Donald didn't want to develop the habit of worshipping money among the people in his territory. After all, people have their own bad roots, greed is also a kind of hope that everyone exists, today you reward him with a hundred gold soles, if you only reward one next time, then the other party will not only not have feelings for you, but is very willing to lead to resentment.
As for the work of smelting ore with magical flames, it was no longer necessary for Donald to do it himself, he sent his first elven subordinate to call him and entrusted him with this important and honorable task.
Kael'tham's flame ability is similar to the demonic flame ability that Donald obtained from the Fire Burner, after all, the legendary blood elf also gave up the ice and snow spell in his talent out of hatred, and chose to study the fire ability of the demon realm more incliningly.
After that, in addition to learning the mage spells of this world every day, making himself and his master have two professions, and trying to improve his strength, Kael'thas spent the rest of his time in the blacksmith shop with the two blacksmiths smelting ore, while Donald himself was busy making the next step and opening a magic item shop.
Two days ago, he had ordered William to arrange the relevant matters, and created a mysterious shop in the downtown area of the town near the center, and based on this building, opened a shop specializing in magic alchemy items.
Today, all the goods were exchanged, and basically the preparations were almost ready, so I decided to hurry up and not rush late, and took advantage of the fact that the adventurer mercenaries who came back yesterday did not leave, and immediately opened for business.
The shop named the Alchemy Fire Mystery Shop by Donald welcomed its first customers today, the adventurers and mercenaries who received the Dalaran bounty mission issued by Donald this time.
The main customer audience of this shop is not ordinary civilians, but adventurers, professionals, merchants and nobles with higher demand and spending power, so it is not built in the most lively cross shopping street, but on the edge of a cold street near the lord's mansion behind the commercial street.
Before coming to this mysterious building, these adventurers felt "excited" and curious. It wasn't like they hadn't been to the shops that sold magical items before, but most of the things there were something they could see but couldn't afford, and now the powerful young lord promised to sell them at cost, and everyone wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune or buy their favorite equipment items. @。
