Chapter 404: Handicraft Maniac, Master of Smithing
Xia Ling held back a smile in her heart, and said respectfully on her face: "Thank you for your encouragement, I won't embarrass the teacher." As for the carving knife, it doesn't matter if I have the opportunity to make one for all the teachers in the future. ”
"Hahaha, good boy, can talk, I like it."
The bearded old man slapped his thigh and laughed again.
While laughing, he also squeezed Luo Hongchen.
"Hongchen, Hongchen, look at your stingy appearance, you won't even let me touch it. Can you learn from your disciples and be generous? ”
"Fuck off, uncle! Chaoguang, it is absolutely forbidden to cast a carving knife for this old thing in the future! ”
"You're in a hurry, you're in a hurry."
Sun Mingfeng shook his head and took Xia Ling to the test bench and sat down.
He leaned down and whispered, "This bearded elder is surnamed Zhe, an old urchin, and he has an approachable temper, which can be regarded as a teacher's...... Bad friends. Don't look at the two of them like this, in fact, the relationship is still very iron, probably one of the teacher's best friends. ”
"Alright, don't talk nonsense, let's get started."
Luo Hongchen interrupted him and couldn't help but urge.
Sun Mingfeng raised his hand and pressed it on the workbench, and the back of the silver-white countertop suddenly cracked, and a huge five-layer storage shelf rose from it.
Each layer is filled with a variety of metals.
The first two layers are made of common metal, the top two layers are rare metals, and the top layer is made of rare metals of very high quality.
At a cursory glance, there are hundreds of species.
With such a rich material, even the manufacture of an eighth-level soul guide is enough.
It's hard to imagine that this is just an advanced assessment of a low-level soul master.
The bearded old man began to be yin and yang again.
"Hongchen, Hongchen, can you be more generous to me in the future? What I know is the assessment of the inner court, and what I don't know thinks is the assessment of the advanced eighth-level soul master! ”
"Do you want to die?"
"Oh, you really don't have a sense of humor, why are you always in a hurry?"
"Fuck off!"
can make the good-tempered Luo Hongchen jump to his feet anytime and anywhere, this philosopher elder really has a set.
"Ahem."
Sun Mingfeng couldn't help but cough lightly, and reached out to take out an hourglass.
"After the hourglass is finished, the assessment will stop, please prepare."
Summer Ling's eyes froze, and his divine sense spread out, scanning every piece of metal on the shelf.
Originally, in the advanced exam of the soul master level, there was no time limit.
But in order to try the potential of Xia Ling, Luo Hongchen deliberately designed such a time limit.
If he can have the level of an ordinary first-level soul master, he will definitely be able to complete the production within the time frame.
"Let's go."
With Sun Mingfeng's announcement, the hourglass flipped and the soundproof shield next to the workbench was raised.
The examiner himself began to choose metal unhurriedly.
didn't choose too good, Xia Ling casually picked up a piece of red copper.
It's the kind that is often used in making soul guide ray guns.
The first time I used a rare metal real knife to do practical work, I still want to stabilize first, and build a second-level soul guide to try my hand.
Holding this piece of red polycopper in his hand, Xia Ling did not mean to use any cutting tools, but directly possessed the martial spirit.
Under the sharp dragon's claws, large pieces of irregular metal were instantly sliced into a diamond-shaped polyhedron.
Xia Ling returned to his original appearance, and rubbed his hands together.
The original diamond-shaped polyhedral metal was directly twisted into an extremely standard spherical shape by his power.
"This kid is really out of the ordinary, I don't know if he has his own style or what."
An old man chuckled.
The other old man nodded approvingly.
"I think this kid is good, and if the foundation is solid, it's good to have his own style. In the future, it will be much easier to advance to the eighth-level peak soul master. ”
Inside the noise barrier, Xia Ling naturally couldn't hear the discussion of the elders.
He had already begun to concentrate on carving.
The Soul Forge Carving Knife is the only tool he will use when carving.
Instead of choosing the fixing and measuring tools commonly used by soul masters, Xia Ling only carved with one hand.
In the case of strong enough wrist strength and stability, fixing it by hand will not only not produce errors, but will make carving more convenient.
The carving knife in Xia Ling's hand effortlessly cut into the spherical red copper.
The tip of the carving knife shook three times in succession, and three evenly sized arcs were carved into the metal ball.
This carving method is called one knife and three tremors, and it is a knife technique that requires extremely high control ability of the soul master.
In Douluo No. 2, a certain commoner-born soul master liked to use this method very much.
Not only must the engraving position be accurate, but the force must also be completely even.
Once there is a difference in the pool, the core module is considered useless.
However, for the extremely strong summer spirit, this is not a thing.
The speed of his carving is extremely fast, and he is full of charm under one knife after another.
This kind of rapid carving seems to have a certain rhythm, and the knife is dancing in his hand.
While the blade cuts in extremely fast, each knife can accurately carve the most accurate details.
Several old men were attracted by his carving method.
The bearded elder tinkered in a low voice.
"This kid, amazing! This is definitely a genius among geniuses! Even my stupid apprentice Xiao Jin Zi doesn't have this kind of carving realm, and will only rigidly pass the measurement, polishing, and then make corrections little by little. Hongchen, where did you pick up such a monster? ”
Luo Hongchen's face was full of pride, and he squinted his eyes back with a strange yin and yang aura.
"Envy? I'm envious of you old thing! When I went out for breakfast, he sent it to the door himself, which was God's reward for my conscientious study of the soul guide for most of my life. ”
The road to simplicity.
This is the best portrayal of Xia Ling's carving technique at this time.
As a master of formation, a master of refining, a master of spirit chefs, and a master craftsman, he is already familiar with carving on weekdays, and has long formed his own unique style.
That's fast.
Fast in one step.
Use the most concise knife technique to get the most work done.
Whether it's carving ingredients, metal, or any natural treasure, it's all at your fingertips.
Now carving the core module of the soul guide, several have the same end.
It's just that the way of carving is different, and there is not the slightest difficulty for him.
Most soul masters need to carve out a rough outline first, and then slowly modify the carving.
But the summer spirit is different.
Every time he goes down, he can achieve perfection and perfection.
One knife down, straight to the point.
There is even no need for secondary processing and grinding.
Fast, it's too fast.
It only took three minutes for Xia Ling to complete the portrayal of the entire core formation.
A small, round, hollowed-out metal ball with a core module with many fine lines and knots appears.
Under the background of the deep bronze color of the red polycopper itself, the core module looks extremely atmospheric and exquisite, with a bit of mechanical punk structural beauty.
Normally, the assessment is over at this point.
The examiner only needs to go down to check whether the core module can be run to determine the assessment result.
Well......
But no one had ever told Xia Ling about it before.
So, his show time isn't over yet.
If you want to do it, you can do it.
Doing things halfway through, that's not his style.
In front of everyone's eyes, Xia Ling directly ignored Sun Mingfeng, who was looking outside the soundproof cover, and took out many blacksmith supplies from the storage ring.
Light a special charcoal stove and take two pieces of other metal from the metal rack and put them on top to heat them.
Judging by the materials he used, this was intended to be made of both the inner shell and the outer shell together.
Luo Hongchen stopped the eldest disciple who wanted to stop.
"It's okay, let him finish it. This is the first real soul guide made by Chaoguang himself, and it is still more commemorative for him. ”
Sun Mingfeng nodded and continued to stop and watch.
Elder Zhe was puzzled, "A real soul guide? Could it be that this kid has faked it before? ”
Luo Hongchen looked at Elder Zhe with a look of contempt for Elder Zhe, and took out the model soul guide ray gun that Xia Ling had previously made with iron essence from the soul guide storage device.
This thing was taken away by Luo Hongchen two days after entering the school.
said that he wanted to show it to other high-level officials of the school, and some people in the province said that he had a problem with this special enrollment.
Later, Xia Ling was immersed in the ocean of knowledge and couldn't extricate himself, and he never forgot to come back, so he kept it with him.
Elder Zhe took it and wondered, "Second-level soul guide ray gun, what's the problem?" ”
The rest of the old men also came over to see what was magical.
Luo Hongchen said lightly: "You take it apart." ”
Elder Zhe moved quickly, and with a few movements of his hands, he dismantled the soul guide ray gun into parts.
"It's ...... Iron Spirit? The inner shell is also iron? Even the linked parts, conduction ports, and core modules are iron essence? My dear, it's a miracle that this kid didn't blow himself up. ”
Elder Zhe laughed and looked through the various parts.
However, he couldn't laugh when he saw the core modules.
"Shhh...... The core module carving with this precision is definitely at the level of a third-level soul master. Is this the result of this kid's learning in four months? ”
"No, this is the result of his self-study before he has learned any soul guide knowledge, and it is just modeled after a second-level soul guide ray gun that he picked up."
Luo Hongchen's words were amazing.
"Are you kidding?"
Elder Zhe exclaimed.
Not only him, but all the elders present thought so.
It is already unheard of to be able to reach a third-level soul master in four months.
You must know that even Luo Hongchen, who was known as the supreme genius of the soul guide a few decades ago, took a full year to reach the level of a first-level soul master.
Self-taught imitation to reach level 3?
It's just kidding them!
If it weren't for Luo Hongchen's words, they would definitely blow this braggart guy out with one shot.
Luo Hongchen once again took out a real second-level soul guide ray gun, which was the one that Xia Ling picked up at the beginning.
He quickly disassembled the ray gun into parts and removed the core module inside.
Luo Hongchen said something that stunned all the elders present.
"See? The scariest thing about Asahi is not here. His iron essence's core formation is crooked, right? But it's not because of his level that he's here, it's because the core formation he imitated was crooked. ”
"You can use the psychic scan to see that the two are zero errors in the true sense. Not only the structure of the core circle, but even the small mistakes in some of the carvings of the maker were copied by the light of the light! ”
Looking at the shocked expressions of his old friends, Luo Hongchen said proudly:
"Now you know why I brought this kid directly into the inner courtyard in the first place, right? As for genius, which of you thinks that he can be a genius at his age? Even I'm ashamed of myself. If you want me to say, Chaoguang was born purely for the soul guide. This is no longer a matter of grandpa grandpa appreciating food, this is simply grandpa grandpa grabbing his neck and stuffing him with ducks! ”
It took a minute for the old men to recover from their shock.
Elder Zhe spoke: "Your fucking shit luck is really amazing, you can meet such a demonic disciple when you go out for a meal, why didn't you let me catch up with this good thing?" From this kid's body, I saw the hope of a ninth-level soul master. He can't hide it, so we must find a safe way for him. ”
Everyone nodded in affirmation, and began to discuss the cultivation direction of Xia Lingtian in the future.
Luo Hongchen shouted dissatisfiedly: "Eh, I said you old guys, this is my disciple, why are you so excited?" ”
"Go and go, such a good seedling must be cultivated by everyone. At his learning speed, I want to see that all-round development is completely fine. ”
"That's it, Lao Zhe is right, I agree."
"I also agree, Lao Luo, you can steal the fun, seven or eight of us will be a teacher for him, who has this treatment in the entire Sun and Moon Empire? Even the current emperor didn't have such a big score when he was in school! ”
While the old men were arguing, the summer spirit inside the noise barrier had already continued to produce higher-level soul guides.
Sun Mingfeng, the only person present who understood, looked at his junior brother, and then at the elders who were already about to fight, and sighed silently.
He restrained his hand trying to open the barrier, ready to see how far his junior brother could go.
Anyway, the money for the materials is from the teacher.
He hasn't stopped yet, he doesn't look at it, hehe.
By the time a group of old men finished tearing each other over the cultivation mode after the summer spirit and discussed a path that everyone thought was feasible, nearly two hours had passed.
Luo Hongchen looked at the summer spirit that was smashing iron inside the barrier, and then looked at the soul guide clock on the wall, and asked suspiciously, "Mingfeng, what's going on?" Haven't finished it yet? ”
Can't you?
This kid claims to be a divine craftsman, even if there is an element of bragging, there should be a grandmaster-level blacksmith.
This technology, building an inner shell shell is not something that can be solved in minutes?
Sun Mingfeng just stood in place, without any intention of responding.
Luo Hongchen frowned, and stepped forward to see what was going on with his senior disciple.
As he walked to the barrier, he was immediately drawn to the small core modules on the inner workbench.
This is......
The core module of the sixth-level soul guide!
It's a whole set!
Not only that, but this is also the core module used by the extremely rare melee soul guide, and it is far more difficult to craft than a ranged soul guide.
This......
Compared to this set of core modules, the second-level soul guide ray gun and the fourth-level soul guide cannon placed next to it are not even worth mentioning at all.
Several elders saw that Luo Hongchen was also poking there without speaking, and they walked up in unison.
When they saw the series of tiny core modules, their eyes showed a deep shock.
Level 6 melee soul guide?
How is this possible?
Xia Ling didn't notice the shock of the old men outside, and still forged the shell of the melee soul guide by himself.
For him, it was easier to forge melee weapons and armor than parts of long-range soul guides.
This kind of melee soul guide, which is completely different from the integrated cold weapon, made Xia Ling's heart a little excited.
Compared to traditional cold weapons, melee soul guides have a bit of a chain-like long knife, or a concussive sword-like feeling.
Just feel.
This is a combination of cultivation technology and cold weapons.
This strong sense of contrast made him more and more popular, and even inadvertently used the technique of spiritual forging.
Fortunately, the last shred of reason in his heart pressed him down.
He at least remembered using the disguise of spiritual power to cover up the vision of Hyak Forging and Thousand Forging.
And at the last moment, he came back to his senses and resisted the urge to forge his soul.
With the pluck of the forging hammer down.
A series of core modules were hammered into the interior of the melee soul guide with seemingly powerful but actually gentle force.
A series of core modules gradually merge with the blade under the influence of temperature and force.
The Level 6 Melee Soul Guide is nearing completion.
This is an extended version of the two-handed long-handled Miao knife.
The shape is similar to the one that Ding Xiu of Jiaqian Jushi, and the overall look has a bit of cyberpunk charm.
