Chapter 39: Magic Weapons
"When iron and fire come into close contact, whispering the elements, it is a chant of nature, a symbol of strength. The Secret Iron summons the power of the magic circle, and with the magic stone as the power, even mortals can exert extraordinary power......" - "Wizard's Diary" notes
Alan reviewed the basics of alchemy, studying the diary of experiments on the process of refining magical weapons.
That's right, Alan has always wanted to create his own magic weapon, which is initially set as a model of a sword. The prelude is basically ready, the 68-centimeter one-handed sword, the hilt of the sword has reserved the position of the alchemy array, and it is almost necessary to use the tarantula venom to quench the sword body.
However, with this trip to Mambres Canyon, Alan has a new idea. Combined with the deciphered witchcraft descriptions of life force in the Codex of the Dead, Alan had the idea of carving another life circle on the magic sword.
Thinking of it, the magic sword was originally engraved with two alchemy arrays of elemental amplification and speed amplification, and at this time, with the addition of the life array, it could just form a small three-element stable situation.
It is not an easy task to engrave the alchemy circle on the magic sword, in addition to requiring the refining of the magic sword body materials to pass the level, it also tests the meticulousness and patience of the forger, as well as the fit of the engraved magic circle.
Alan naturally didn't have to worry about anything, and with the assistance of the chip, an alchemy circle the size of a seal was soon formed.
Immediately after that, he used mana to guide the energy circuit of the magic sword, in order to be able to power the magic circle that had just been engraved, with a "hum", the sword body roared, and a stream of white energy visible to the naked eye overflowed, and the entire sword exuded a cheerful atmosphere, just like a newborn baby, full of curiosity and expectation about this world.
Alan empathized with him, and looked at the unfinished magic sword with pity, the flames were sonorous, and the sword power seemed to be whispering to the enemy.
"Just tell you to whisper, now it's time for the last process. Alan looked at the sword in his hand expectantly.
Eren then threw the Whispering Sword into a bubbling green broth, only to see that the soup began to fade visibly, as if the green inside was being absorbed by the Whispering Sword.
This pot of soup is specially used to extract magic weapons concocted by Allen, and is composed of more than a dozen precious raw materials such as tarantula venom and star powder. In particular, the tarantula venom inside is collected from the venom sac of the golden tarantula, and its effect is naturally far from being comparable to that of ordinary tarantulas.
After a while, the original green soup completely turned into colorless water, and in the water, the green whispering sword was bright and bright, as if it had been covered with a layer of green paint.
Clamp out the sword body with pliers, and a magical scene appears. I saw that the originally green whispering sword body met the air outside. It immediately turned into an ordinary silvery-white, and it was completely impossible to see that it had just gone through the green stage.
The silver-white sword body is more beautiful than before extraction, and the faint magic lines on the sword body add a touch of mystery to the whole sword, and what is even more amazing is that in the position close to the hilt of the sword, these lines actually formed the unique logo of Master Fang Yun under the intentional guidance: a withered vine is wrapped around a long sword, with a cloud below, and two rows of small characters carved in two languages above - Fang Yun.
On the back of the logo, the word "whispering" is elegant, as if to whisper something.
Nodding in satisfaction, Eren began to set the hilt for the Whispering Sword.
The hilt of the sword is engraved with irregular patterns, continuing the style of the magic pattern of the sword body, but it is purely decorative.
When Alan held the hilt of the sword and slashed at the stake beside him, he saw that the whispering sword split the stake as smoothly as cutting tofu, without much effort and without the slightest resistance.
"Haha, it's so sharp, it's good!" Alan then went on a witchcraft test.
With the cooperation of the magic sword whispering, the release of elemental witchcraft is smoother, and basic witchcraft such as fireball magic can be done smoothly, directly through the special attributes of the sword body, condensed on the tip of the sword, and the power is quite good, compared to the casting of normal gestures and spells, an increase of at least 20%.
What is especially rare is that after the refining of the secret extract, the sword body is sharper, not to mention, there are some other attributes.
"Star, Scan the Magic Sword whispers. ”
"Ding! Target: Magic Sword Whisper, one-handed sword magic weapon, produced by master forging master Fang Yun combined with alchemy, cast speed increase: 20%, witchcraft power increase: 25%, elemental resistance: 10, hardness: 150, sharpness: 160. Special effects: 1. Poison Extraction (direct attack comes with toxin paralysis effect, depending on the target's physique, the paralysis effect is different);2. Life Drain (direct attack will have a life drain effect, ordinary methods will not be able to stop the target from bleeding);3. Life withering (when wielding the magic sword, the magic sword will continue to absorb the life force of up to ten targets within 10 meters except for the sword wielder, and give priority to absorbing the vigorous life force of those who are scratched by the sword, replenish themselves and feed the sword wielder). ”
Elemental Resistance, as the name suggests, is the ability to resist elemental sorcery. Elemental resistance is 10, which means that it can resist the elemental sorcery emitted by 10 points of mana at one time, you must know that Allen's fireball spell consumes the standard 1 point of mana, and the most laborious acid etching ray only consumes 4 points of mana, but the 10 points of mana of witchcraft Allen has not, as for how the chip estimates the resistance of this element, it is unknown. Alan himself had tested that he could easily smash the fireball he sent with this magic weapon.
As for the hardness and sharpness, the chip was based on the standard swords of the city guards, which was also determined according to Allen's requirements.
After admiring the whispering of the magic sword for a while, Alan reluctantly put it into the pre-polished scabbard.
Alan muttered, now that the magic weapon has been crafted, it's time to continue studying witchcraft. With the Mambres Canyon group, Alan felt more and more that he lacked the means, and he couldn't do what he had to do when he had no mana, which was really old.
But before that, he wanted to accomplish one thing.
Naturally, it was to create a weapon for his friend Jason. Speaking of which, I haven't thanked for the kindness of giving away the cultivation method, and even Jason has been promoted to an intermediate knight, and he hasn't had time to send a congratulatory gift, so while he is in a good state now, he can quickly create another magic weapon.
This time, the magic weapon naturally doesn't have to follow such a high standard, Jason is just a knight, so naturally he can't use the attributes of witchcraft, so he just replaces that part of the attributes with physical ones.
Alan Fu designed it again, rebuilding it from the remaining materials.
A day later, another of Allen's magic weapons was revealed. Under the scanning of the chip, the properties of the magic weapon can be seen at a glance.
"Target: Magic Sword Wild Song, two-handed sword magic weapon, produced by the forging master Fang Yun combined with alchemy, elemental resistance: 10, hardness: 200, sharpness: 200. Special effects: 1. Poison Extraction (direct attack with paralyzing effect, depending on the target's physique, the paralyzing effect is different);2. Life Passage (direct attack will have a life drain effect, ordinary methods will not be able to stop the bleeding on the target);3. Life withering (when wielding the magic sword, the magic sword will continue to absorb the life force of up to ten targets within a range of 10 meters, except for the sword wielder, and give priority to absorbing the vigorous life force of those who are scratched by the sword, replenish themselves and feed the sword bearer). ”
Magic Sword Wild Song, another masterpiece of Allen, directly piled up the hardness and sharpness of the two-handed broadsword with a sword body of up to 90 cm to the extreme of the existing conditions, under its three valuable special effects, I am afraid that even high-level knights can't escape its grinding, of course, the premise is that the sword-wielder can cause damage to high-level knights and have the perseverance to endure to the end. Especially in this era of cold weapons where witchcraft is not obvious, the value of this sword is incalculable.
Alan couldn't wait to show his friend the power of the magic sword, but he just met Jason and only had time to hand him the sword himself, and before he could say anything, Jason was summoned by his father again.
Alan was quite helpless, but he didn't linger any longer, and turned to leave.
