Chapter 52 Peculiar Metal Ore Ingots
Successfully obtaining the ingots, Christol and Meredith soon began to characterize the ingots under Lester's orders.
At this time, the two small ones who followed Maurice also arrived at the outskirts of the War Workshop.
The Noxian Black Iron Guard soldier holding a long sword glanced at the somewhat unfamiliar black-robed man with some confusion, and was about to draw his sword to question, but was stopped by the veteran next to him.
The veteran whispered.
"That's Lord Morris, before you came, Lord Morris was the leader of the Shadow Crossbowmen, and then Lord Morris carried out a special mission under the orders of Lord Lord,
Don't offend him, he's on the same level as Lord Margaret, and I've heard Lord Margaret say that Lord Morris seems to have something to do with some of the new elite army that Lord Leicester is going to build. ”
Nodding with apprehension, the soldier who had just joined the Black Iron Guard shook his hands into a fist and gave Maurice a military salute.
"Lord Maurice, Miss Misha and Miss Sheena, please come in, Lord Lord is inside."
Nodding indifferently to the veteran, Maurice walked into the war workshop with two little girls who were a little nervous.
"Sister Misha, I'm a little scared~"
"Sister Sheena, Brother Lester is inside, and there is me, don't be afraid."
Feeling a completely different atmosphere from before, although the blonde girl in the white dress was comforting her sister, her heart was also up and down.
Tomorrow the days are getting better and better, why are the smiles on everyone's faces gone, as if something big is going to happen.
A deep doubt flashed through the little girl's heart.
Passing through the guard posts, the three of them entered the main smelting room of the War Workshop.
At this time, Christol had just put down the ingots in his hand, and Meredith took over.
After a quick glance in the crowd, Sheena instantly found Leicester, who was surrounded by everyone and stood at the front, and her little face suddenly became happy, and she called out crisply.
"Brother Lester!"
Hearing Sheena's call, Lester's serious expression changed instantly, and after turning around, it became an inseparable softness and doting, and he opened his arms to Sheena and Misha.
Seeing Lester's attitude towards the two little girls, even Margaret couldn't help but be a little secretly surprised.
After everyone got out of the way, the two little girls skillfully threw themselves into Lester's arms and coquettishly coquettish, and Misha and Sheena were picked up by Lester one by one, which also allowed the two little girls to see the dark red ingots that were being tested by the female mage.
Having never seen anything so strange, Misha instinctively feared, Misha asked.
"Brother Lester, what is that, how does it feel so evil?"
"Evil?"
Stunned by Misha's overly 'subjective' words, Lester was noncommittal and looked at little Sheena on the right who was shrunk in his arms.
"Sheena, do you think this thing is evil too?"
Pulling her head out of Lester's chest, Sheena glanced at Meredith's ingot and nodded weakly.
After a moment's hesitation, Lester said with a smile on his face.
"This is an ingot, which is smelted from the ore dug in the ground, and I don't know the characteristics of this ingot, but I will soon understand, you two should look at it obediently, okay?"
"Good~(*2)"
The tense and solemn atmosphere was broken by the two little ones, and the blacksmith apprentices and those in power present were much more relaxed.
Keeping an eye on 'evil', Lester didn't dwell on it, and seeing that Meredith was still testing his magic, he turned to Harold and said.
"This matter must rot in the stomach, whether it is the red-skinned mouse of the Shining Silver Mountain Range or this strange ingot, the news must be completely blocked, Elder Harold, what should I do, I shouldn't need to say anything, right?"
Knowing that the man in front of him was beating himself, Harold nodded respectfully and said sincerely.
"Lord Lester, I know what to do, please rest assured, I am nothing without the Emerald Leader, not to mention that you still trust me and appoint me as the administrative officer of the Emerald Lord, I Harold is by no means a person who does not know how to lift."
Nodding, Lester listened to Harold continue.
"So, Lord Lester, now that the mines in the Shining Mountains have been sealed, should we go to the Urus Mountains to mine?"
"You're right, you can't stop working in the mines, we need a lot of ore to build equipment.
You personally arranged for mining in the Urus Mountains and reported back to me when progress was made. ”
"Understand ......"
As the two finished speaking, Meredith also dispersed Li's detection magic, placed the cold ingots on the anvil, and glanced at Christol.
"Come first, Lord Meredith."
Christol humbled in, and Meredith nodded and looked at Lester.
"There is no doubt that this ore ingot has the characteristics of metal, has a considerable affinity for magic, can be used to charge mana for a short time, and can be used to make some magic amplification equipment or magic weapons, which is a very rare magic metal material."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
"It's just that the strange thing is that these affinities are reflected in the ability to blend and resonate with various attributes of magic, which is also one of the two elements of the 'Breaking Demon' attribute.
Arrows containing this ingots can easily pass through the magic shield, and unlike the forbidden magic stones of Demacia, their white stones completely block the flow of magic or destroy the construction of the magic array, thus achieving the effect of 'breaking demons', and this metal ingots are more 'melting demons' than breaking demons. ”
After absorbing Meredith's analysis a little, Lester asked.
"In other words, if you use this equipment to create a sword and armor, you can ignore the magic shield and magic attack?"
Meredith said solemnly.
"To be exact, this can be done within the limits of the mana absorption of metal ingots.
Exceeding the magic absorption limit, after reaching a maximum threshold, the metal sword will forcibly release the absorbed magic elements, and the metal armor will forcibly release the attacking magic elements, as long as a little guidance, the magic attack can rebound back in the direction of the attack, if the magic is used to forcibly increase the upper limit of the metal's magic absorption, it is likely to cause a metal explosion. ”
Margaret interjected.
"Does the bootstrap require the user to have a magical foundation? Does this mean that only mages can use this metal equipment? ”
Shaking her head, Meredith looked at Margaret with a solemn expression that showed no surprise.
"Ordinary people can also guide the direction of the release of magic elements, in fact, this is also the most surprising point for me, in very irresponsible words, this metal ingot, seems to have some kind of independent consciousness, I am not sure if this is my delusion, because when I was performing the test magic, I vaguely heard the call of 'it'."
