Chapter 403: The Secret of Thunder

Just when the alarm sounded in the entire Baiquan camp and the high-level people were busy, the starting point village was still in order.

Bai Ze completed the basic arrangement, that is to say, Fu Xuefeng should have arrived at the enemy's base and successfully infiltrated, Bai Ze finally had some free time, handed over some trivial matters to Wu Yijun to deal with, and returned to the studio by himself.

The first thing Bai Ze did was to take his new forging tool and start beating the Rank Beast Bone for two hours, and then another Rank One Beast Bone for another hour.

The reason behind this seemingly useless action is quite important. After all, Bai Ze has always used the ordinary metal hammer before the end of the world as the main forging tool, and Bai Ze has always strengthened that hammer with mana.

Since Shirasawa's newly created hammer is made of slashed gold, a metal born from mana after the evolution of the world, Shirasawa needs to get used to the extra weight of the hammer and develop a certain habit when hammering different materials.

If Bai Ze's previous hammer was a 9mm pistol, then the current hammer is a sand eagle. The forces behind the two are completely different, so the results obtained will naturally be very different.

Fortunately, Bai Ze gained some experience in the process of forging for four or five hours.

Bai Ze put down the hammer for the time being, put the Wuji Blue Lotus Fire in the furnace, and picked up the piece of gold that had been heated earlier.

"Turn the temperature up a bit." Bai Ze said, throwing the two ungraded soul stones into the furnace.

It's not a waste now, because he will soon conquer another base and take all the other party's resources away. Even if they only had a few thousand ungraded soul stones, it was enough to be worth Bai Ze's investment in equipment.

The Infinite Blue Lotus Fire, as its blue flame enveloped the soul stone, behaved like a hungry child. Even if it was just the lowest-level levelless soul stone, the little flame was not picky at all, devouring all the energy in each soul stone and burning it even brighter.

"Looks like you're a fan of soul stones." Bai Ze smiled.

He slowly pulled the pincers holding the gold cutting a little closer, looked solemn, and said, "Remember the previous temperature, and keep the flame at that constant temperature." ”

The small blue flames suddenly concentrated their firepower.

Bai Ze saw the focused flames of small flames, all around which were pale blue, while the head of the fire was dark blue, even almost black.

As soon as the shards come into contact with the flames, they immediately begin to heat up. Although the record of the Infinite Blue Lotus Fire did not specify what kind of flame it was, and Bai Ze didn't know how to tell the size of the fire, he estimated that it should be at least a second-order flame, and it was even possible that it had reached the third order.

Within a few minutes, the gold slash turned fiery red, and Bai Ze also noticed that the pincers began to shake slightly. If he hadn't used several layers of mana to surround the pincers, it would definitely melt in an instant.

Bai Ze strengthened the mana around the pincers, took the gold slash to the working anvil, and with a slam of his right arm, the newly made hammer slammed down.

One two three...

The sound of metal colliding with metal echoed through the workshop.

Thanks to the hammer in his hand, it didn't take long to cut the gold and shape it into the shape that Bai Ze wanted.

The sound of percussion and the faint crackling of lightning form a pleasant symphony.

"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and a good hammer can indeed get twice the result with half the effort." Bai Ze sighed, dipped both weapons in cold water, and watched the water vapor slowly rise.

Although they are two items, they can be said to be independent weapons, but they are actually a pair.

After cooling down, Bai Ze took the two items to the workbench and put his hands on them to check the records.

【Gold Gloves】

[One-handed weapons.] 】

[Level: 1st Order]

[Physical Attack: 700]

[Magical Attack: 200]

【Has a chance to slow down enemy movement】

[Durability: 3000/3000]

[Description: A pair of gloves of unusual shape, crafted by an enterprising and skilled blacksmith.] They remain incomplete due to the lack of something crucial. 】

Gloves are weapons that can be used in hand-to-hand combat, but they are often overlooked, as warriors usually prefer to use swords, maces, spears, daggers, etc. However, for those who are used to fighting with their fists, fighting gloves are undoubtedly their weapons. They were chosen because despite their lack of sharpness, they can still deal lethal damage to enemies.

Of course, Bai Ze did not give up using the giant sword. The reason why he forged this glove was because of his passive skill special forces, which made his whole body full of weapons.

The power of the giant sword was experienced by Bai Ze himself. A heavy weapon like the Blazing Scale Greatsword can shatter everything it goes in its path with a single swing, not to mention a greatsword forged from precious second-order metal.

Therefore, he decided to create two different weapons.

One of those weapons was basically the glove in front of him. This weapon will be used against a weaker enemy. After all, using a cannon to fight mosquitoes is a bit overkill.

Wearing gloves, Bai Ze's physical attack power on each hand immediately increases by 700 points. Considering that the greatsword he broke earlier had 750 physical attack power, the power of this glove was undeniable. However, in reality, the greatsword is more powerful, not only because of the extra 50 attack power, but also because of the difference in weight.

As for the second weapon, it is, of course, a greatsword; Bai Ze's main weapon.

"Hmm......" Bai Ze looked at the two gloves in front of him and frowned. Missing key things ......? What is it? ”

Bai Ze stared at the gloves for a long time. Even after nearly an hour, I couldn't see what was missing.

Intrigued, he checked the record again.

"Physical Attack ...... Magic attack power ......," Bai Ze muttered to himself. There seemed to be a magic light on the top of his head, and suddenly all his movements sank, repeating: "Magic attack power? ”

"I see!" Bai Ze clapped his hands and took out a soul stone from his bag. "Since this pair of gloves is a pair, it should have two types of attack power!"

In order to test whether his theory was correct, Bai Ze immediately set out to act.

A hole was made in the top of both gloves. This is a difficult task because the metal has formed the shape of a glove and may melt slightly when overheated. Fortunately, the temperature of the small blue flame was well controlled, and Bai Ze used the dagger to make two holes in the tops of the two gloves.

He then submerged the two gloves in cold water to cool them down again, and after reviewing the records, he found that the durability had decreased, but with some metal removed, the descent was natural.

Bai Ze took out two first-order soul stones and carefully embedded them into the hole in the glove.

Although magic forging is also a part of forging, Bai Ze is still not used to it. Even if his forging skills have reached the first level, there is still a long way to go, and he needs to gain a lot of knowledge before he can call himself a decent blacksmith.

He concentrated as much as he could, controlling the mana in his body with a serious face, while using magic to connect the soul stone to the glove.

Although he wasted two first-order soul stones, he still succeeded.

"It's finally done!"

A smile appeared on Bai Ze's face, despite the loss of two precious first-order soul stones and the cost of two more to build the equipment in front of him, Bai Ze did not regret it at all.

The gloves in front of me were pitch black, and the fingertips were reddish. Occasionally, a purple glitter can be seen on the surface, giving it a sense of elegance and danger.

【Secret of Thunder】

[Special two-handed weapon.] 】

[Level: 2nd Order]

[Physical Attack: 1120]

[Magical Attack: 800]

[Allows the wielder to control the lightning slightly.] 】

[Durability: 4000/4000]

[Description: A pair of gloves in one.] This particular weapon was forged by a blacksmith with an extremely high IQ, who discovered the shortcomings he had previously created, and it was only then that this dangerous weapon was born. 】

[Skill Level 1 Forging Level 1 is forcibly upgraded after overcoming the necessary conditions.] 】

[Level 1 of the First Order Forging ---------------> Level 3 of the First Order Forging 】

Two different pieces of information flashed through Bai Ze's retina.

When I look at the gloves I finally create, I can't express my excitement.

Not only did Bai Ze get a second-order weapon with a physical attack power much higher than that of the giant sword, but he also got a magic weapon that could greatly increase his magic attack!

"And my forging skills have upgraded on their own." Bai Ze sighed, shook his head, and said in a somewhat narcissistic tone: "Could it be ...... Am I really a genius? ”
