Chapter 126: A Prospect from My Father

For such a design, Mu does not think there is much of a problem. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and after getting his approval, Yan immediately put down his heart.

He was worried that his designs would not make it past his father's level, because in that case, many of his designs would be put on hold. And in that case, he's going to lose a lot of fun out of thin air.

Luckily, though, things were going the way he envisioned them. And this made him immediately strike while the iron was hot and come up with a second design of his own.

That's an unusually huge design. The straight blade is flanked on one side by a straight blade deep in the blood groove, and on the other side there are a variety of rough serrations. At the same time, the spine of the sword is thick, the sword body is flat and wide, and the huge sword body even gives the impression that it can be used as a shield.

The sword grid is a standard mountain shape, and although the form is standard, the size is twice as large. Behind the sword lattice is a somewhat long hilt. The thick hilt of the sword is more than enough even if it is held with two hands, and as for the head of the sword behind the hilt, it is completely huge.

All in all, this is a typical custom greatsword. It's even bigger than a normal greatsword. Looking at such a weapon, Mu nodded and put on a look of agreement.

"This weapon is much more pleasing to the eye than the previous one. Although it is a little larger in size, it is still within the category of commonly used greatswords. It's just that, are you sure you want to build such a huge one? And like the previous one, it is also made of Titan Divine Iron as the main material? If so, I'm afraid that the Titan Divine Iron in our hands will not be enough. ”

"No, of course not!" Hiko, shaking his head very clearly before he spoke his mind. "I wanted to create this greatsword by mixing it with Stellar Steel and Mithril as the main materials. I don't need how heavy this greatsword is. I just need it to be strong enough to be able to better allow me to wield the power of the Light. ”

"Is the power of the Light the kind of divine power that has the attribute of order? If so, then it is possible. After a long pause, Mu agreed with Yan's point of view. "The star steel that Coulson brought me is plentiful. After I've completed my necessary experiments, there should be a fair amount of money left, enough for you to make this weapon. But ....."

Speaking of this, Mu picked up the two drawings, looked at them carefully, and then asked Yan Fa like this.

"Are you sure you need two weapons? If I am not miscalculated, the weight of these two weapons together will be a hundred and fifty kilograms. Heavier than the weight of an adult Nord. Are you sure you can afford it? I think I need to remind you that you need a weapon to take advantage of, not a drag in battle. You know, if you add armor and other necessary equipment, then you will have to bear far more weight than a normal Nord warrior. Is that really appropriate?"

"Trust me, old man. I can handle that. He picked up the piece of iron made of Titan Divine Iron and let it be fiddled back and forth like a plaything in his hand. Hiko said to his father. "The power of the Light will increase my strength and stamina, and this level of weight is not a problem for me. ”

"Okay. If you really need that. So, next question. Do you have any needs in this regard?"

Mu asked his son. Hearing him ask, Hiko's first reaction was to ask for a set of pure metal armor. But he himself knew that it was impossible.

A complete set of metallic armor requires a complex process that is almost far beyond what a single person can accomplish. Even a forging master like Mu may find it difficult to complete such a task. Hiko didn't expect anything to be desired, so he simply gave his father the right to choose.

"Do you have any suggestions? I'll listen to you in that regard. ”

"Remember the Wasteland Bear that almost killed you in the first place?" he said, relaying a piece of parchment and picking up a charcoal. And Yan also stretched out his hand very eye-catchingly and held down the paper for him.

"The bear is a subspecies of dragon-like blood. After peeling off its skin, I realized that there was a layer of fine scale tissue under the thick layer of bear skin. Although it is not as good as the natural dragon scales, it is also in extremely good condition among the dragon beasts of the subdragon species. And if such a piece of skin is made into leather armor, then its texture and defense power should not be under most armor. What's more, the bear's size is huge, so there is a lot of leather even made of nitrate. If you save a little money, you and the Dome should be able to create a well-fitting leather armor. ”

Mu explained this to Hiko, sketching a rough shape on the parchment with charcoal.

The overall shape of the leather armor is heavy, and it looks like a military coat that covers the knees. A thick layer of shoulder pads is added to the shoulders, and there is a vertical collar at the neckline to protect the neck. This gives the wearer the best protection, and the tight-fitting design also allows the wearer to wear only a belt and buttons, so they don't have to worry about being hindered by the armor.

Overall, it's a pretty good design. However, Hikoko is very worried about whether his father's work will be very different from what he portrays.

You know, making a piece of leather armor and forging it in metal are two completely different things. This involves nitrate, sewing, and a lot of cutting issues. And it's the kind of thing that only those who are ingenious and have the expertise to do it.

Mu may not have a problem with nitrate leather, but it would be a little too difficult for him to let him take scissors and needles and sew a set of leather into the shape he wants, little by little.

And in this regard, Mu is also quite self-aware. So immediately, he threw down the charcoal in his hand and said bluntly.

"As for leather armor, I can only design it for you to this extent. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the next time I went to sea, find a halfling craftsman to sew this set of leather armor. But now that there are Nebru spiders here, there's no need to go far. ”

"The Nebru spider-men are natural craftsmen, and they are no worse than halflings when it comes to sewing. And, with their help, the performance of this leather armor could be improved even more. As long as they provide some Mithril and let them transform Mithril into the unique metal spider silk of Spider-Man and weave it into the inner layer of the leather armor, then the defense of this set of leather armor may have reached the point of transcendence. ”

In this regard, Mu is clearly a trustworthy expert. So immediately, Hiko said excitedly.

"Then it's settled. I immediately went to write to Mr. Lu and asked him about this matter. ”

"Don't worry, the leather is still with me? I think you should do something else first. For example, learn how to refine the alloy you want. It's your own weapon, and how can it be your weapon if you don't get involved in it?"

Mu pressed Hiko's shoulder and said to him. His hands were so hard that Yan couldn't move at all. And looking at his attitude, Yan knew that he couldn't escape.

A long time ago, the Nords had such a custom. That is, the user has to sacrifice his weapon with a part of his body. This method can make the weapon and the owner achieve a blood connection, but to be honest, it is rare to find one in hundreds of examples that can achieve this effect.

At that time, the Nords were superstitious about such low-probability things, so much so that many Nord warriors were physically handicapped. And this made the battle between the Nords and the forces of chaos extremely difficult during that period. Under these circumstances, the ancestors of the Nords forbade this evil behavior and began to promote another way. That is to involve the Nord warriors in the production of their own weapons.

Because you are familiar with every detail of your own weapon manufacturing, you are able to better manipulate your own weapons. Although this does not have the kind of blood resonance that comes with sacrificial weapons, the success rate is much higher. It's just that the problem also arises here. Because not every Nord has a talent for forging.

There is clearly a clear difference between a weapon that comes from a master forge and a weapon that you have created by crude means. So, with the passage of time and the development of the Nord forging process, this ancient custom was gradually abandoned.

And for now, Mu clearly intends to let Hiko repeat this old act. On the one hand, he has this ability, and as his son, Hiko has a considerable talent for forging, which is the basis for his request. On the other hand, it's also because of Hiko's own designs.

Design is just something that stays on paper. When it comes to putting it into practice, problems of one kind or another will inevitably arise. At this time, the designer is personally involved and modifies the unreasonable places, so that the resulting work is the most suitable and perfect work. Mu, who is a genius inventor himself, knows this very well, so he also makes the same request to Yan.

On this issue, Hikoko could not find any reason to refuse. So he could only simply take off his shirt, revealing his sturdy upper body, and then picked up the sledgehammer placed by the fire, and said to Mu.

"Well, I don't think I have to object. So, where do we start?"

"Start with a model. It's a good idea to start with a preliminary prototype of plain steel, so you know what to expect with your design. ”

"Okay! ”

At his father's behest, Hiko put the existing steel ingots into the roaring fire. The bellows began to stir vigorously, driving the flames in the furnace to become more and more vigorous and dazzling. And in such flames, the steel turned a reddish color. The banging began to sound, tinkling, and non-stopping. And with a somewhat piercing hiss, the sky was already brightening.

The day of thought has started again!
