Chapter 55: The First Step to Masterhood

In the blacksmith's shop, Murray stood opposite the dwarven blacksmith, quietly watching Osa pound the pieces of iron on the anvil.

Under the constant hammering, the iron shows all kinds of strange patterns on the surface, and it seems that each hammer seems to follow some kind of mysterious process.

A hammer is not only like hammering an iron block, but also like imprinting a very strange magic pattern on the iron.

At the same time, along with the beating process, the dwarven blacksmith's body is also changing color, and the pores are spewing steam again and again.

The dwarf in the blacksmith shop in front of him was already a humanoid steam engine, immersed in the process of forging, and completely mechanically carrying out his movements.

"Puff" another hammer fell, spitting hot steam from the arm holding the hammer's arm.

From the sweat oozing out a lot, and being instantly evaporated by the heat on the dwarf's body, it can be seen that this hammer dwarf used a lot of force.

The "ding" iron made a crisp sound, and a strange swirl pattern appeared on the surface under the hammer of the forging hammer.

With the appearance of the lines, the iron seemed to have some kind of special magic, and under Moli's gaze, it actually suspended in the air on its own.

But it only hung in the air for a moment, and was held down by the dwarven blacksmith with iron tongs, and then thrown directly into the burning furnace.

Ossa then took another piece of iron out of the furnace, the same process as before, and thrashed it again on the anvil.

To the average person, it seems that there is no difference between the beating of two pieces of iron, and both follow a similar forging process.

But in Mori's eyes, Mori, who has a powerful memory, can clearly distinguish the difference between the two forging processes.

In the process of forging, there are some subtle differences in hammering, although it is only a difference in the small movements of the hands, but the result after a hammer is completely different, and the traces and lines left on the iron will also be very different.

Ossa thrashed back and forth, taking different pieces of iron from the furnace again and again, and forging them with different hammers.

Eventually, about six pieces were forged, and the forging stopped, and the iron pieces in the furnace were removed and the quenching pool was discarded.

The iron blocks cooled down in the water instantly, and the beaten and burned lines on them were also set.

After cooling completely, Osa stepped forward and reached out to grab one of the pieces, and as the piece was fished out of the pool, a wonderful scene occurred.

Murray's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched as the six pieces of wrought-iron in the pool seemed to have some traction on each other, all pulled out of the water, then collided and glued together, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a heavy hammer.

Seeing the hammer held in Ossa's hand, both Mori standing in the blacksmith shop and Salia who was blocked out of the door were stunned.

On the surface, the hammer is not a single unit, and there is a wide gap between the six parts.

But even with those gaps, the hammer still felt like a whole, and there was no pause at all when it was wielded in Ossa's hand.

Ossa suddenly raised the hammer again, and the hammer changed instantly, and the six parts rubbed against each other, moving like a machine.

Then, when the scorching fighting qi flowing in Ossa's body poured in, the hammer actually collided with a "bang", blooming with a strange light.

Saria subconsciously took a step forward, this time she successfully stepped back into the blacksmith shop, and looked at the hammer in disbelief: "This, is this actually a magic staff? Actually, it can be used to forge a magic staff in simple terms? I heard that the dwarf's forging skills are the strongest, but I didn't expect that even a staff can be forged." ”

Hearing Saria's exclamation, Osa smiled and threw the hammer back to Murry: "Boy, you can take a look too." ”

Murray caught the hammer, expecting it to be very heavy, but found that it was very light.

No, it should not be said that it is lightweight, but the hand hammer can be adjusted to the most suitable weight for its own use according to its own strength.

Raising the hammer and taking a closer look at it, it was found that there was a very strange connection between the six parts that make up the hammer.

From the point of view of the Morry mechanic, this connection between each other is like the tooth sockets of mechanical gears biting together.

Surprised, he looked up at the dwarven blacksmith and said, "This is a mechanical hammer that has been forged directly?"

Osa smiled and replied, "It can also be understood in this way, in fact, both of you understand correctly, but it is actually a forged hammer. ”

Ossa then said to Murray, "You see it now, even if I'm not good at magic and I don't know how to do machining, I can still forge this hammer, so I can learn and know the skills of others many times, but I can't give up my own skills and use the skills of others, so how can you surpass others?"

Murray lowered his head thoughtfully, knowing that the dwarven blacksmith wanted to warn himself to stick to his craft through this wonderful forging.

The dwarven blacksmith then spoke, "To repair the dragon's heart, you should not look for other people's solutions, but use your own methods to repair them. ”

This sentence made Murray wake up instantly, raised his head and asked in surprise: "Use my method to fix it?"

The dwarven blacksmith nodded: "Yes, with your method, you got the dragon's heart these days, have you been thinking and meditating, hoping to find a way to repair it? ”

"But you're not good at magic, you're a kid from the Dragon Kingdom, you're a mechanic from the Dragon Kingdom, how can you do magic?"

"You're stuck in a stalemate, your mind is so bound by yourself that you can't diverge your mind and find a way to fix it. ”

"But if you give up the idea of magic repair, and simply use your skills, in the way of a dragon country mechanic, you really can't repair him?"

Murray suddenly woke up to the fact that he had achieved nothing in five years.

I am bound by my own ideas, and I have been trying to integrate into the West and want to learn Western skills.

But in the process of learning, he gradually lost himself, forgot his own advantages, and even abandoned what he had learned in the Dragon Kingdom.

Therefore, on the road of pursuing Western skills, I was completely shackled, and instead of learning Western things, I lost everything about myself.

As Osa said, you should not give up what you are good at in order to learn other people's skills, but you should absorb other people's skills and integrate them into your own skills, so that you can really improve.

Mori, who came to his senses, looked at the dwarf blacksmith, and then bowed to the blacksmith very seriously: "Thank you, thank you for waking me up." ”

Osa smiled and said, "Hehehe, go ahead, take what you have learned in the past five years and integrate it into the skills you are good at, and repairing this dragon heart will be your first step towards becoming a master." ”
