Chapter Eighty-Nine

Sui Xiong is a person who pays attention to feelings, and since he has decided to make friends, he will no longer use the attitude of doing business to do things. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Interested in seeing my factory?" he smiled and extended an invitation to the God of Runes, "I just did it the other day." ā€

Of course, the god of runes is interested, and the Void Mask has always been mysterious and unpredictable, but it has never been untargeted. To be so proudly introduced to others by Him must be strange about that "factory".

So they came to the newly built concentrator plant and took a closer look.

"It's amazing!" "The God of Runes, who was also a master of mining, smelting and forging before becoming a god, immediately saw the mystery of this factory, "Through this method, the best quality iron ore can be selected." In this way, when the iron is smelted, the texture will definitely be very good!"

"That's right. Sui Xiong said with a smile, "Generally speaking, to make high-quality equipment, you need good steel, and of course you need high-quality iron ore." This requires experienced miners and blacksmiths to carefully select and select the best ore before making iron, and then they can get good iron and forge good equipment. But through my concentrator factory, the iron ore is definitely the best, and it takes very little time – it's the equivalent of having a group of top concentrators helping me sift through the ores, and when they come out of the furnace, they will be the best steel!"

"Of course!" the rune god nodded, his eyes bright, "The best steel comes from the best ore!"

"With all due respect, the texture of your ore in the Northwest Republic is still not good enough, even if this method is used to screen it, the final smelted iron should be a little brittle, and you have to find a way to process it again, right?" he said with a smile, "However, if we use this method to deal with the iron ore that our dwarves dug out from the depths of the Broken Cloud Mountains, then we will get the best ore in the world, and then smelt the best iron in the world!"

Sui Xiong was stunned, he hadn't paid attention to the texture of iron ore.

So he simply took the God of Runes to find Palin and them to learn more about the situation.

Sui Xiong and the god of runes did not hide their identities, and when they learned that the dwarven god had come to visit and that it was the famous god of runes, Parin and the craftsmen were very excited, especially several dwarven craftsmen, who cheered even more. If there's alcohol on the side, they'll be sure to have a big drink to celebrate.

When the god of runes told his guess, Parin and the craftsmen nodded in admiration.

"You're right! In the past, the iron produced in our four towns was always a little brittle, and the iron smelted this time is the same. Later, we did small experiments and mixed various things into the molten iron, and finally settled on a set of solutions to the problem. "Basically, as long as you add a few special ores in a certain proportion and let them melt in the molten iron, the molten iron can be purified, and the resulting steel will not be brittle." ā€

The god of runes nodded slightly, and did not ask which ores were used, and in what proportions, and how they were added.

As a craftsman, He knew the rules and respected them. This set of techniques was painstakingly researched by Parin, and it was their secret recipe, and if he wanted it, he should pay enough to exchange it.

And he didn't need this technique, the iron ore obtained by the dwarves from the Broken Cloud Mountains was far better than that of the Ash Forest, and there was no need to remove impurities like this.

Then He visited the smelting of the blast furnace.

The finest iron ore and a variety of carefully calculated ingredients are put into the blast furnace, which is then ignited and blown away. With the help of magic, the heat of the coke was fully exerted, and soon the temperature of the furnace rose to an extremely high level.

The walls of the furnace can obstruct the eyes of mortals, so much so that Palin and the others can only use magic to observe the situation inside the furnace, but Sui Xiong and the god of runes can directly see the situation inside the furnace. They watched as the iron ore melted, and the impurities combined with the ingredients turned into a foamy slag that floated on top of the molten iron.

Whenever a certain amount of this slag accumulated, they poured it out. Naturally, some molten iron will be lost, but every time the slag is removed, the molten iron will be purer.

Finally, when they were sure that the situation was suitable, they stopped heating and poured the already pure enough molten iron into the prepared tank, and the fiery molten iron quickly cooled down and turned into dark red, red-hot steel, and finally a slightly rough steel plate.

This type of steel plate needs to be sanded smooth before it can be stamped. In order to demonstrate to the god of runes, Parin and the others directly used pre-polished steel plates.

The sturdy steel plate was firmly stuck to the base, and then the water drove the chain, slowly lifting the hammer high and finally falling hard.

After a loud bang, the steel plate became the shape of the main body of the cuirass.

ā€œ...... I see!" Seeing this, the God of Runes had completely understood, "As far as technology is concerned, it is actually not that difficult to learn, but this kind of thinking, this kind of thinking, is the most precious!"

He asked curiously, "Who invented this method of using water to lift a heavy hammer and finally turn a steel plate directly into a piece of armor by stamping?"

"Your Majesty, of course. Parin replied.

The God of Runes smiled slightly, but he was not particularly surprised.

Whatever the Mask of the Void does, He will not be surprised.

And...... After seeing the wonderful concentrator factory just now, he had already determined that Sui Xiong was a master craftsman. What's so strange about a master craftsman who was able to invent a beneficiation machine, inventing a hydraulic press?

The main body of the cuirass is naturally a few pieces of armor on the front chest and back, and the matching shoulder pads or something are also stamped and formed by a hydraulic press - but this cannot be done today, because the hydraulic press stamps different armor pieces each time, and it needs to be specially adjusted.

They usually adjust the hydraulic press once a few days to produce many nail pieces at a time. If the quality is good, it will be left to be assembled into armor, and if the quality is not good, it will be sent to another blast furnace in the smaller number to be heated, re-transformed into molten iron, and then processed into steel plate again.

This is already a complete process, and Sui Xiong has no intention of destroying it.

After visiting the hydraulic press stamping armor pieces, they finally came to the workshop where the armor was assembled. There are a few old craftsmen and some young people here who are busy, and there are a lot of armor pieces and other materials waiting to be assembled, and there are some finished products.

Each of these finished products is as simple as Sui Xiong had seen before, but the armor is neatly displayed there, but there is naturally a kind of cold air that slowly emits, which makes people have to respect it.

"The Heavy Weapon of the Nation!" The God of Runes looked at the neatly arranged armor, and then looked back at the series of blast furnaces and factories, and couldn't help but praise, "This is the real Heavy Weapon of the Nation!" (To be continued.) )
