Chapter 20 Do You Know Forging?

Seeing the hammer smashing at him, Ma Kai quickly dodged and dodged. The pen, fun, and www.biquge.info hammer really ran against the wall behind him, smashed it with a muffled sound, and rolled on the ground a few times.

Looking at the large piece of stubble that had been smashed off the wall, Ma Kai's face twitched! Fortunately, he had dodged quickly just now, otherwise it would have been a shame if it had hit his face. If he changed someone else, he would have to go up and fight hard, but he couldn't be angry with this person, even if he was a craftsman here.

Master Regano, the old man in front of him who was being stopped by his apprentice and had to find something to throw over, as the number one craftsman in the empire's forging technology, although his status was not very noble, but he was absolutely respected.

The spears, swords, shields, and armor worn by thousands of Imperial soldiers were made using his innovative forging techniques. It is this equipment that ensures that they can fight bravely on the battlefield while still trying to save their lives.

Therefore, although Regano has never made any very high-level magic equipment or magic weapons, his improvement of ordinary forging techniques has benefited the entire empire, so he has confirmed his name as a master, and in a sense he can be said to be a master of the common people.

Ma Kai naturally did not feel resentful because of a respected old-timer who lost his temper with him, and everyone knew that this old job was absolutely undisturbable, and it was his fault to bring someone over at this time, but because of his relationship with Eric, he didn't want to give up without making any effort.

"Master Regano, please calm your anger, it's me!

Hearing Ma Kai report to his home, the old man just snorted angrily, and the movements on his body didn't need to be stopped by others.

"I know it's you, kid, I have to hammer him to death if I want to replace someone else's old man. The implication is that he has already shown mercy just now.

Ma Kai looked at the hammer with a big fist on the ground, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and said that if I hit the right blow just now, I would really be almost dead!

"Master, don't be surprised, I didn't mean to disturb you!, this is Lord Eric, the chief of the guard in Duke Parker's palace, I think you should remember ......"

Mackay wanted to wait for Regano to greet Eric himself, but it was obvious that the old man didn't mean it, and instead stared at him in embarrassment.

"I'm not blind, hurry up and talk about it!" Regano still didn't give any face.

“...... Well, that's right! Eric's acquaintance asked me to build a batch of tools, and some of them are quite difficult, and my level is not enough, so I want to bring them to you as soon as possible. With that, Ma Kai hurriedly handed over the drawings respectfully.

He knew that this old man still had a strange temper, and the more difficult the work, the more interested he was, so he went straight to the point, hoping to attract him with Xiao Yi's drawings.

Sure enough, as he expected, as soon as Regano heard the words "difficult" and "not enough", he immediately restrained his temper on his face a lot, took the towel handed by the apprentice next to him, wiped the sweat on his body, and grabbed the drawings with a big thorn.

"Well, the picture is pretty good, but what does the note mean? Come and tell me about it. "This old man is really straightforward enough, if he can't understand it, he just says that he can't understand it, and he doesn't feel embarrassed at all as a forging master.

Ma Kai did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sold what he had just heard, and the old man Regano was amazed and admired again and again, and even said that the drawing method and standard of this drawing were very useful to the craftsman.

When the old man heard that the person who drew the picture immediately urged Ma Kai to introduce him on the spot, he didn't care about his performance just now, and only Xiao Yi could explain the more detailed things, so Regano asked a lot of questions, and Xiao Yi didn't have anything to hide and answer them carefully.

One old and one young, you asked me and the answer was originally very harmonious, but suddenly Regano frowned, as if he had found something wrong, and asked Xiao Yi suspiciously, what are these tools for.

didn't bother to comprehend Ma Kai's meaning of squeezing his eyebrows to stop it, Xiao Yi said bluntly that it was the kitchenware prepared for himself to open a store.

The old man was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Ma Kai fiercely. When the latter smiled wryly and nodded to confirm that it was not a joke, Regano was silent at first, then suddenly let go of his hand grasping the drawings and turned to pick up something from behind and smash it at Mackay.

"You bastard boy has nothing to do to entertain Lao Tzu! ****** kitchen utensils, Lao Tzu can't wait to be used for ten days a day, so you let me do this, see what the hell you go!"

Although it was Ma Kai who was beaten and scolded, Xiao Yi and Eric and others next to him didn't look very good-looking, to put it bluntly, no matter whether Regano was scolding from the heart or not, they were a little bit of a feeling of scolding Huai, not to mention that Zod couldn't stand this anger and wanted to explode, even Eric who understood Regano's temperament very well was a little angry, and Xiao Zhengtai Pete, who was the most noble person present, was completely ignored, and at the moment he was left to the side to do innocents, I don't know if it was intentional.

Ma Kai finally survived the attack of various heavy objects, and Regano picked up the object he had just created to block Ma Kai's eyes and said angrily:

"Look at the good things you just did, I think I'm about to figure out how to build the hardened armor, it feels good to just hammer and forge, but it won't crack again when you break it.

As long as the research of this armor is successful, it will be put into production and equipment in the army immediately, and then go to the front line, I don't know how many soldiers will be able to avoid casualties, and you will disturb me to do my business for your own little care, I really misjudged you when I elected you to be in charge!"

The old man was indignant, his strong chest bulging with anger, and Mackay was being trained to hold his head up, and he really began to reflect on how he should not have been so obsessed with Eric's feelings instead of bothering Regano.

Although the old gentleman has no master-apprentice affection for himself, who of the blacksmiths in the forging department has not been instructed by him, and even his identity as the chief craftsman was successfully obtained under the strong recommendation of the old gentleman back then, and he is so eager for quick success to disturb an old man who is dedicated to improving the quality of the imperial armament, which is really undeserved.

"Well, the reason why your armor piece will crack is because the additives are wrong, and it really doesn't have much to do with the forging method!"

At this time, Xiao Yi on the side opened his mouth to say something, he had already explained the drawings to Regano before, but he was familiar with a group of people, but this remark obviously had the effect of water entering the oil pot.

In particular, the disciples and apprentices of Regano all seemed indignant, and they couldn't wait to tear Xiao Yi apart.

"Where did the wild boy come from, he dared to make a big fuss in front of my teacher!"

"What do you know, do you still think that your knowledge is higher than that of the master!"

Who was Regano? He was the top blacksmith in the Empire, and he could count on one hand the craftsmen who were technically qualified to sit down with him, and it was obvious that the young man in front of him was not among them. And he is actually correcting the "mistakes" of a master blacksmith, isn't this a very absurd and ridiculous thing!

Even the people on Xiao Yi's side had different expressions. Ma Kai was embarrassed, he was the one who brought him, although he didn't have to be responsible for these offensive words, but he always felt that he couldn't raise his head in front of the respected master; Eric was surprised on his face, he had seen Xiao Yi's extraordinary, could it be that this young man with first-class alchemy skills actually had extremely high attainments in forging!

Little Pete seemed very excited and expectant, this big brother who saved himself was the one whose father allowed him to approach freely, I don't know how many surprises he can bring to himself, judging from the current trend, it seems to be endless;

"You know how to forge?" the old man was surprisingly not angry, although judging from the previous situation, this old man was definitely a cannon fighter!

After listening to this, Xiao Yi seemed very calm, he understood that the 'understand' in the other party's words did not only mean the literal level, but asked himself how sure and confident he was of what he had just said. If it's just nonsense, then the authority of the master will never allow you to be insulted by a newcomer, if so, don't blame me for being rude, and this meaning can be well proved from the momentum of the other party.

The people around him can naturally sense the change in anger, how many years has it been that no one has dared to question Master Regano? What kind of anger will the master burst out, just looking at the difference in the physical strength of the two, they can't help but worry about Xiao Yi's fate, as for Xiao Yi's theory can suppress the master's hypothesis......

Please!

"Understand. Xiao Yi replied simply, and although the words were humble on the surface, they were actually the same-for-tat, saying that it was 'some' instead of 'a little', combined with Xiao Yi's calm and calm bearing, its real meaning was obvious, and the word 'very' should be added in front of 'understood'.

"Okay, very good! Then please advise me, I'll listen!" Regano continued solemnly, the feeling of oppression emanating from his body even stronger.

However, Xiao Yi didn't seem to feel the pressure, and his general expression did not change at all, so he directly began to distinguish the evidence:

"The smelting formula of hardened steel armor is an equal mixture of rock iron ore, copper ore, and acidified tin ore, of course, this is only the most basic formula, and the armor pieces produced are the lowest grade in the series.

And how much the quality can be improved through other additives depends on the skill of the blacksmith, as for this, ......"

As he spoke, Xiao Yi casually picked up the armor piece that had just been forged by Regano and held it up in front of his eyes, looked at it slightly, and then put it under his nose and sniffed it.

Xiao Yi's actions immediately attracted the ridicule of many apprentices: "It's really a cook's material, it's a pity that he came to the wrong place, and the forging is not food!

Xiao Yi was unmoved by the ridicule, and Regano's expression was even more solemn, because he understood that there was indeed a legendary amazing skill in the forging industry, when the forging material was difficult to identify by experience after completely changing its form, it was indeed possible to identify the ingredients by smell by the special smell of minerals. It's just that this requires the shocking ability and outrageous experience of a grandmaster to do it, could it be that the person in front of him also knows this way?

"If I'm right, you're supposed to be mixed with gold essence, animal ashes solution, clemat vine, and ...... Safron Elixir, I'm right!"
