Chapter 80: Rune Rune
Andrew roared, the muscles in his arm suddenly enlarged a few times, and a hammer shadow landed on the red-hot iron, making a loud iron striking sound.
Bang –
It wasn't like a human sound at all, but more like a sledgehammer in a steel mill, the feeling of the telekinesis attached to the iron block feeding back to Caleb, this hammer was at least 2 tons.
'It's unbelievable that dwarves have the ability to manipulate gravity!' ’
The sound that echoed in the blacksmith's shop was like the sound of a bomb exploding, and so was Caleb's heart.
Bang –
Bang –
Bang –
Bang bang .....
As Andrew's speed increased, the expression on his face began to become hideous, and the hammer in his hand became even more connected.
The piece of iron or steel was like a piece of soft clay on the anvil, and it was almost broken into a thin sheet in just two seconds, and with Andrew's skill, the piece of steel seemed to be firmly trapped on the anvil.
'Folding and forging, it's so fast. ’
Caleb looked at Andrew in surprise, why was he forging at such a fast speed, and he was not in a hurry.
In just one minute, Andrew had finished his forging, and he was covered in sweat as he stuffed the iron back into the furnace, panting for breath, he hadn't used this move for a long time.
Turning his head to Caleb, he said:
"The iron is to remove the impurities inside, the less impurities, the higher the strength of the iron, but you can't beat it for too long, otherwise the strength of the iron will decline, how many times you have to explore it yourself, I won't teach you."
Caleb nodded, indicating that he understood, but doubts filled his mind.
'There is a problem....'
After speaking, Andrew turned around and picked up the heated iron again, picked up a small hammer from the side, and began to pound on it.
Ding-dong-ding-ding-dong
With the blow, a knife about the length of a forearm appeared in Andrew's hand, and Andrew picked it up and looked at it, and after making sure that it was not crooked, he dipped the iron in the water, and this process lasted 3 times.
"Soak it in water every time you hit it, and reheat it again after soaking until you get the shape you're happy with, and remember not to hit it crookedly."
The last time Andrew took out the red-hot knife and quickly stabbed it into the water, stabbing it with a loud sound, emitting a large amount of water vapor, and after half an hour, he picked it up and put it back into the stove.
"This step makes the knife harder, and heating it after half an hour prevents deformation and cracking."
Until finally Andrew handed Caleb a short knife, which was polished and completely glowing, and the patterns on the knife were beautiful in layers.
"This is the Dwarven Blacksmith? It's a little better than other stores, but I'm still not satisfied. ”
Caleb looked at the knife in his hand, the folded and forged pattern looked beautiful, and it felt really better than the weapons on the market, but just like that, it was still a little different from the legend.
Andrew, who was on the side, picked up a bottle of wine and drank a few sips, took out a piece of meat from the counter and gnawed it, he was hungry from morning to noon.
But when he heard Caleb's words, he snorted and said:
"Hmph, let you open your eyes today, you wave it."
Caleb did as he was told, raising the short knife in his hand and swinging it, he felt a trace of spiritual power being sucked in by the weapon in his hand, so subtle that Caleb could hardly detect it.
Whew-
A flash of crimson fire suddenly lit up, Caleb was startled, he hurriedly threw down the knife in his hand, and watched it plunge into the ground, revealing that the knife was still burning with flames, and he exclaimed:
"Magic weapons?!"
'Such a powerful flame actually only consumed so much spiritual power from me!' ’
Caleb looked at the short knife in shock, and his heart was shocked, there was no carved demon array on this knife, how could it be on fire? It's not magical.
"Hahahaha.... It's amazing, a real dwarven weapon doesn't need all those bells and whistles to have magical power. ”
Caleb drew his knife from the ground and looked at the flames burning on it, his face amazed.
"Wow, it's amazing, this knife is amazing, but how can this be extinguished."
"It will be extinguished in more than ten seconds, and there are dwarven weapons that are not sold, and I will not sell this knife to you."
Andrew watched Caleb turn over and over with the knife, as if he liked it very much, and felt that the anger in his heart had finally disappeared.
He took a big sip of the bottle when Caleb's voice suddenly rang out.
"It's... This is... Rune Rune!? ”
Poof-
"Ahem, cough, cough...."
Andrew spat out the liquor in his mouth violently, coughing incessantly, and he looked up at Caleb in dismay.
"How do you know.... This is a secret that my people have never been told, and you know it from there! ”
"It's really a rune of rune, I just saw this before, I remember this is called Kennatz, you actually hid the rune in the pattern, it's amazing."
When Caleb saw Andrew's appearance, he was sure that he was not mistaken, the pattern on the sword was the rune of Rune, and he actually left the rune on the weapon by folding and forging it, which was ingenious.
"Oh no! That's impossible! ”
Andrew's face was full of remorse, he was really drunk, his head was caught by the door, and he actually created a rune weapon in front of outsiders, and he was also seen to have clues, the key is that he still understands the meaning of runes.
"It's no wonder that the speed was so fast when I just forged, it turned out that this ultra-high-speed forging was specially used in order not to leak the technology, if it wasn't for the fact that I thought the pattern was very familiar, I wouldn't have been able to see it.
Manipulating fire, manipulating gravity, and this rune, are those of your most important techniques? ”
Listening to Caleb's words, Andrew's body shook again and again, and looked at Caleb in disbelief, he just hit the iron in front of him, and he was touched clearly!
Caleb looked at the weapon in his hand, there was only one rune on it, if he didn't happen to know it, and the weapon's expressive ability was almost the same as the meaning of the rune, he would have thought it was a coincidence.
He looked at the hidden rune on the sword, Kennaz.
Kenaz: The symbolic element is "fire", which represents "strength", "energy" and "ability".
In ancient legends of the past life, the rune script, also known as the runi script, is a sacred script that can predict the future. Every word has a special power.
It can be used to craft talismans, record magic, and be carved into stone, wood blocks, shells, or other natural materials to make rune stones.
Andrew sat down in his chair dejectedly, didn't even drink his wine, and looked at the ground in a daze, for a long time.....
He shook his head and sighed, as if he had aged a decade in an instant, and slumped in his chair, and he muttered:
"Alas, it's over, I'm a great sinner of the dwarves."
Raising the wine in his hand, he poured it into his stomach in a big gulp, and the wine that he usually felt delicious was extremely bitter at this time, just like his heart.
He doesn't blame Caleb, after all, he found it himself, he only hates himself, why should he agree to Caleb's request, just to repay Caleb for saving his life?
No, it's not.
It's just because of my damn self-esteem, for the sake of proving my strength, for that insignificant bit of vanity.
When Caleb saw Andrew's decadent look, he hurriedly comforted:
"Oh Andrew, don't worry, I won't reveal it to others, you can rest assured.
Besides, I just happen to know this one rune, and I don't know what the other runes mean even if they are placed in front of me, so I don't know how to use them, so don't worry about them being leaked out.
If you don't believe me, I swear to the God of Oaths. ”
Tengdi stood up, tugged at Caleb's collar, and asked eagerly:
"What you said is true?"
Caleb nodded, wrenched himself from Andrew's grasp, and looked at him amusedly.
"Really, really, I swear, I swear to Oakes, the god of oaths, that I will never reveal the natural abilities and core technologies of the dwarves to anyone, and if I break the oath, I will be punished by divine fire."
A chain appeared on Caleb's raised wrist and disappeared in an instant, and Caleb could feel that something had indeed descended on him, and he thought that this was the power of restraint.
Seeing this, Andrew's face suddenly turned bright, and he breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Caleb is not the kind of greedy person, otherwise he would really have stabbed the big basket.
Caleb asks Andrew:
"That's okay, right?"
"Yes, hahahaha.... I really didn't see the wrong person, so I can rest assured, Caleb, you will always be our dwarven friend! ”
Andrew picked up the unopened ale and enthusiastically stuffed it into Caleb's hand to open it for him himself.
"Come on! Drink! ”
Andrew picked up his bottle, touched it with Caleb's, and drank it with his head up.
"Ahh Hahahaha....."
The bitter ale turned into the sweet wine again, just as Andrew was in the mood now,
Unable to resist Andrew's enthusiasm, Caleb reluctantly drank with Andrew.
Tilting his head and finishing a bottle, Andrew blushed and said to Caleb:
"Since you really swore not to divulge the secrets of my race, then I will not hide my secrets, and I will teach you all the iron-making techniques that your human race can complete.
You've seen the forging process I've just done, try it now, I'll warn you if there's anything wrong. ”
Andrew picked up a piece of iron and shoved it into Caleb's hand, he really wanted to teach Caleb now.
The dwarven iron-making technology, as long as this technology is handed over to the kingdom, money, power, beauty, and whatever you want, you can have it.
Caleb was able to choose to keep things under wrap in the face of this great temptation, and Andrew felt that he was a man to be trusted.
"Oh? Really teach me, well, then I'll give it a try. ”
Caleb looked interested, and to be honest, he had only come to learn the art of ironmaking.
In order to make the stick of the space-based weapon, in order to maintain the lethality of the stick when it falls to the ground, hardness and heat resistance are necessary.
But now his focus has changed, and Caleb can replicate the dwarf's abilities like him.
Finally, there is the Rune Rune, which does not need a magic circle to invoke supernatural powers, which is too suitable for him, he can't use magic in the first place.
Even if he had magic power after getting the system, he tried to release magic at that time, but at most he only made a small flame, a small flame that even struggled to ignite, and elemental magic has always been a pity for him.
Now the magic power is fused with the spiritual attribute to become the spiritual power, and some of the magic power has long been lost.
But the rune of rune is different, Caleb is absolutely not mistaken, there is no magic added to the previous wrought iron at all.
It's really just pure forging, on a physical level, but the finished product has such a powerful ability, what does this mean?
This shows that the rune will have an effect just by writing, and it must be written with subjective consciousness, knowing what you are writing, the rune will have magical power.
Otherwise, in this world, how can it not be discovered, as long as there are enough coincidences, someone will definitely make a pattern similar to the rune by mistake.
But they don't know the meaning of the rune, so it's impossible to discover the secrets of the rune.
Caleb had a hunch that this rune would take his strength even further, and Kennaz alone gave him a lot of inspiration.
This rune that directly condenses flames brings not just a fire, but energy, an endless amount of energy!
Compared to the negligible amount of mental power consumed, this transformation ratio simply violates the law of conservation.
The thought of this Caleb made Caleb's heart burn, in fact, he had lied to Andrew, since he knew Kennatz, how could he not know the meaning of the other runes.
But this kind of thing is not suitable to say, after all, only the dwarves in this world know about the rune rune, and he will not be able to explain it if he takes it out casually, so it is best for him to find someone to endorse him.
Andrew in front of him is a good candidate, his ability is so similar to that of a dwarf, maybe he can .....
Caleb pondered in his heart:
'Acting as a show to recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, anyway, the small village where I was born is gone, and the kinship of the two cheap parents doesn't know where to look.
In this way, it won't be abrupt to take out the runes again, and now I'll show a little ability in front of Andrew. ’
Thinking of this, Caleb decided that he was going to completely replicate Andrew's forging and make an identical sword, and even better!
While the furnace was still hot, Caleb came to the furnace, picked up coals and poured them on it.
"Add a little more coal, insert the iron into it, and pull the bellows until the iron turns red."
Andrew began to teach Caleb, because Caleb was not a dwarf and did not have the ability to control fire, so he asked Caleb to pour a little more coal, so that the temperature was enough.
Caleb smiled at Andrew, grabbed the bellows in his right hand and began to push and pull.
Whew-
Whew-
The flames skyrocketed, lighting up the entire shop in an instant, and the orange-red flames reflected Caleb's face, and a heat wave came from the pavement.
Caleb stared at the flames, and the telekinesis in his body moved.
Invisible telekinesis envelops the flames and air, and Caleb intends to raise the temperature by increasing the concentration of oxygen in the air.
But he stopped abruptly, because he suddenly noticed that he was different from Andrew, he increased the temperature of the flame by increasing the concentration of oxygen in the air, but Andrew was not, he made the flame rise out of thin air.
As we all know, the three elements of combustion are combustibles, combustibles, and ignition sources.
If Caleb's method is to increase the combustible, then Andrew's ability is to directly increase the flame out of thin air!
Well, it's magical.
Caleb's eyes flickered a few times, if he directly changed the change in the air, he would definitely be discovered by Andrew.
When it comes to playing with fire, the dwarves are good hands, and it is impossible not to detect my small movements, so the first step of my plan will fail.
'Do you want to give up.....
