Chapter III

The reason why artifacts are called artifacts is that self-repair is one reason, and the other reason is that artifacts can only be destroyed with artifacts of the same level, as long as they are not crushing damage, they can slowly repair themselves under the action of time, so it can be said that the things called artifacts can never be destroyed after they are finalized, and as for putting them in the furnace to rebuild, they must be melted down.

Therefore, looking at the perfect knife embryo under the knocking of the farm tool that is also an artifact, the blade of the knife that was pulled by the bay appeared distorted notch, and when he looked back at the time with tears in his eyes to confirm that it was too late to repair, the murderer who broke into the disaster suddenly felt a strong killing intent pouring in from outside, closed his mouth and looked at the knife embryo that he smashed with a farm tool, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart, and he turned around and raised his steps without saying a word.

"Do you want to go, although Shadow Town is not a big place, it has the strongest troops in the Empire, and if you break the artifact, you will have to pay compensation. "Soldiers suddenly appeared and filled the entire blacksmith shop, making it feel like people were entering a black shop.

The shadow town is the town where Lake lives, a town with a population of less than 10,000 people is located on an isolated island overseas, which is considered the border island of the empire, and it is a necessary route and supply port to leave the empire from the coast. Therefore, although there are many people in and out of the air, there are few people on the ground.

Just when both sides were stunned, a middle-aged man with 5 stars on his shoulder walked in, first bent down to pick up the broken knife embryo to check, and then picked up the farm tool that smashed the knife embryo and said: "Sure enough, it was still a step slower, and I heard the rumors from my subordinates that Cindy said that you were forging a single knife and hurried over, but I didn't expect it to be a step slower." ”

After speaking, he ignored the sad Laike, weighed the weight of the knife embryo in his hand, and said to the murderer with a smile: "Eli, Sith, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Border Force, how are you going to compensate for the loss of destroying the unformed artifact?"

Eli, Sith, Lake's uncle, who was originally the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army, was asked by Shuke, and at the same time, out of protest against the Empire's restriction of Shuke's freedom, he asked for a demote and transferred to Kojima to take care of Lake, and when Lake was 13 years old, he successfully recognized and explained the reason for his parents' departure. From then on, little Ryker was able to learn the knowledge of forging with peace of mind, and promised that the first perfect artifact he made would be given to his uncle.

What I didn't expect is that in the past few years, there will be mistakes for various reasons when forging artifacts, and even offensive farm tools such as sickles will have accidents that will lead to various shape variations in the finished artifact, and the artifact is still an artifact, but it has lost the attack ability it should have, and only farm tools can be perfectly forged, to paraphrase Linda's words: "The lethality of the farm tools you make is stronger than that of weapons, just specialize in forging farm tools." ”

That's why Eli often brings his elite to the blacksmith's shop, and as soon as he learns that he is forging weapons again, he immediately rushes over.

In the face of the murderous aura of the elite troops, the second generation of the family, who wanted to capture Lake back to the family just now, nodded his head and said: "Hello General Eli, the villain is the son of the Speaker of the Angry Sea Federation. ”

It turned out that he came to learn the magic creation technique, and when he returned to China and passed by here, he found that the farmer actually used the artifact to plough the field, and found Lake here under the threat and lure, and wanted to say that he would throw the farm tool and bring it back to the Federation after dismounting, but he didn't want the farm tool to directly destroy the artifact embryo that had not yet been finalized, and then ......

"No need to do it, hurry up and write to your father to pay the compensation, and this artifact will be taken away by you. After speaking, he turned back to the troops and ordered: "Take him back and entertain him well, don't leave him out in the cold." ”

Watching the troops take people away, Eli turned around and came to the sad Lake, and comforted: "Don't think too much, it's good that others can make an artifact in their lifetime, you guy makes a handful every day, and I feel a little strange if God doesn't stumble on you." ”

That's right, there are a lot of artifacts in this world, but no forger can forge an artifact a day like him, and Eli, who is in a high position, will not care about his unexpected situation every time. After all, if someone can make an artifact in his lifetime, he will reach the sky, and he still wants to do it every day.

Of course, the top of the empire has long known about Laike's ability to forge artifacts, and even sent people to investigate him a long time ago, the reason why he was not invited back to the capital to worship is mainly because of his summoning characteristics, he is a mutant summoner, but his summons also have the characteristics of a summoner, without hurting the master, the summoner can overstep his authority to command, and probably the summon will disappear after the summoner dies.

Therefore, although Lake is an artifact forger, he has not received the attention of the Empire. Please, you are a forger with a short lifespan of only a hundred years, and you don't look at those guys who can use the artifact, the monster that has not lived for more than a thousand years, and you use the artifact of your family, and after you re-exercise it for the sake of habit, you hang up, and the artifact becomes garbage, and decades of time are wasted in vain, who wants it.

So, after the sad Lake unleashed the ineffective molten steel without saying a word, he walked into the practice room without paying attention to Eli and began his own training, and the days passed like this, Caschu left with Linda, and Sindy also entered the Imperial Air Force Academy under Eli's recommendation, and his childhood friends also left one by one, some went on adventures, some went to travel, and some even went around and returned to the town with his wife and children to settle down, and he was the only one who continued to hammer the iron alone, and at the age of 25, he could not play a normal weapon with offensive power......

"Boss, I heard that you have cheap artifacts for sale here, can you bring me a dozen?" Just when I thought that I would live my life like this until I could forge an artifact before I died, a guest came to the door. Since Cindy went to the Air Force Academy, people often came to buy artifacts, and without thinking about it, she knew that she introduced it, and Lake, who was striking iron, turned around weakly and shouted: "Greedy rabbit is at work, move out what you are reluctant to eat." ”

The current Bunny has been promoted to the position of Artifact Supervisor. Because the farm tools he made have the nature of an artifact, in the past few years, every household has owned several farm tools that are not bad, and even many of the tools at home are not bad artifacts, and when the market is saturated, Lake began to concentrate on building weapons, and the same katana was made day and night, and then there were mistakes all the time, and they were classified by the greedy rabbit as reluctant to eat, edible, and not delicious.

Therefore, when the cute rabbit pulled out a large basket of artifacts, he blinded the guests on the spot, and Lake glanced at them to determine that these were the food that the greedy rabbit was reluctant to eat, and only the weapons he was reluctant to eat would have a little attack ability, and said to the guests with a smile: "These are all artifacts, yes, but there are a little problems, just pick a pair of ten gold coins." ”

"You can pick a handful of ten gold coins at will! Are you a wholesale artifact? Failed artifacts are not only at this price, are you not cheating?" A group of men and women looked at Lake in disbelief, and the look of their hearts but not daring to act made him amused: "Cindy introduced it, right? It's only ten gold coins to be cheated, and you guys won't be more than this price when you come by airship." ”

For every question in the hearts of the guests, Lake feels funny when he thinks about it, no matter how much he deceives people, it is just a few gold coins, and he has come all the way here and is so careful, thinking that he will continue his forging without saying much here, thinking that this time he must succeed, and after he is done, he can go to the capital to find his parents after leaving it to Eli. Although the reincarnation carries the memories of the previous life, he has never been able to disconnect his thoughts about his parents in this life, if it weren't for the promise of Eli, he would have left everything to find his parents on his 25th birthday.

"Ding Ding Dong ~ Ding Ding Dong ~"

After a moment of silence, the sound of striking iron sounded again, and found that Lake no longer paid attention to them, and a girl walked out of the crowd: "Yanling, Sindy's direct senior sister, you are Lake, right?

In response to the girl's question, Lake, who was about to enter the heat treatment stage, stopped and spoke: "You can pick a handful of ten gold coins, buy them all, and count them all as a wholesale handful of eight gold coins." ”

"There really is a wholesale price!" a group of people were all stunned. However, Yanling had already learned the reason from Cindy's mouth, and came to the greedy rabbit and squatted down and stroked her soft ears without caressing: "Can you tell my sister which one is more suitable for me?"

Ignoring the strange eyes of the surrounding classmates, Yan Ling turned out the tip of the knife and broke a small section of the katana under the guidance of the greedy rabbit, and held it in her hand curiously and waved it twice: "Yes, it is really a blank and soulless artifact, I want this one." ”

You must know that a lot of weapons made by Ryker are missing blades and handles under various accidents, but there are very few that break the tip of the sharp blade and do not affect the use, this katana that can only become garbage in the hands of a master is already the best for a beginner like Yanling, not to mention that one is only ten gold coins, even if it is not suitable to buy it.

Of course, Lake also has this mentality to dispose of these artifacts at a low price, regardless of whether it can be bought for a handful of ten gold coins as souvenirs, it is also an income, not to mention that he still needs travel expenses to find his parents. As a result, casual blacksmith shops have begun to develop into souvenir shops in recent years.

"Really! When a bunch of classmates rushed to the artifact pile, Yanling retreated to Lake's side and looked at the knife embryo that was being kept warm in the furnace, and asked with a smile: "Afraid of more accidents?"

Knowing that the other party is also a person who knows the roots, Lake replied with a smile that he didn't mind: "No way, I can't make a mistake anymore, I can only wait until late at night." ”

In the past few years, I have tried all kinds of methods, whether it is magic isolation or technological energy protection, there will definitely be accidents in the final stage, even if you are proficient enough not to make mistakes at all, there is still no chance of accidents. Even Eli specially dispatched troops to block the surrounding sea, land and air until not a single fly could fly in, and everyone thought that this time would be successful, but a meteorite actually fell from the sky! After a "bang", the perfect artifact turned into perfect metal particle scum on the spot.

What he didn't expect was that Yan Ling, who had been prepared for a long time, slowly leaned over to his side, and said with an ambiguous look in her eyes: "I have an artifact-level space prop here, do you want to try it?" ”

Lake: "......"
