"That...... I'm fine too. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Caesar's voice, in a chorus of exclamation and praise, sounded with a slight breakthrough, interrupting Hilo's mental plan to reach the top of the pyramid.

Shiloh didn't know that Caesar had smashed the raw materials with two hammers, and he had been working very his work.

At this moment, he turned his head and saw a scene where Caesar slowly lowered the hammer, and in the center of the workbench in front of him, a piece of core energy that was not very dazzling was placed.

I don't know why, the moment I saw the quick work, Shiloh's eyelids jumped uncontrollably a few times.

Shiloh suddenly became a little uneasy in his heart, not only because of the feeling that the fluctuating and vague core energy gave him, but also because of the change in the atmosphere of the scene.

The scene became quiet.

All the exclamations, discussions, and praises that came before...... Suddenly, as if absorbed by the air, it disappeared without a trace, replaced by a pair of puzzled, dazed, inexplicable, and disbelieving eyes, all focused on Caesar and his work.

"What's the matter, isn't it just that you've finally finished the work?" Shiloh frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "Why did everyone react like this?"

One of the three master blacksmiths on the side had a strange face and said incoherently, "Ah...... No, this ...... Didn't it break before - why ...... now?"

Caesar smiled and said, "Why, don't the three masters come to check the results of the work?"

"Ah...... Oh, oh, here it is. ”

The scene remained quiet.

Shiloh's feeling was even worse, he thought about it, walked up to Bolin, and asked softly, "What's going on?" Second Uncle, why do you have this expression?"

Boling said: "That Yi, I broke his raw materials before. ”

Shiloh froze for a moment, then said, "Are you kidding me? How can he still make a finished product if the ingredients are broken? ”

With some difficulty, Boling took his eyes off Caesar and the three master blacksmiths who were examining the work, and swept his gaze to the audience, and found that almost everyone reacted the same way as himself.

"I guess I have used some way to make up for it. At this time, Jace on the side said.

He also didn't see the process of Caesar reshaping the raw materials and condensing them into core energy, so he was shocked just now, but at the moment, he adjusted quickly and calmed down.

He smiled and said to Boling and Shiloh: "Don't worry, the raw materials are broken, and Earth Street does not provide spare raw materials, don't worry." ”

Boling thought about it too, and then he relaxed a little.

The three master blacksmiths had been inspecting it for a long time, longer than people had imagined, and as time passed, the atmosphere that had been quiet and close to freezing slowly dissolved.

"Several, what do you think?"

Cassadine withdrew his gaze from Caesar, turned his head and asked the military officers beside him, "Did anyone see what just happened? How did that piece come into being?"

A military officer shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know why just now, I didn't notice the most critical stage." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Elaine, who was silent and seemed a little too calm, and asked, "Lady Elaine, do you have any opinions?" I heard that you know a lot about the blacksmith trade. ”

Elaine just shook her head: "I didn't see it clearly at all." ”

Cassadine had already recovered from the frustration of being injured by Nami at this time, and said with a frown: "So, Master Yi's technique should be to break the raw materials to improve the efficiency of removing impurities, and then make up for them in some way? But in this case, although there are few magazines, it is difficult for the structure of the raw materials themselves to be completely restored, right? Is it possible that this core energy that may collapse again can be used in strategic airships?"

“...... I don't know. ”

No one can give an answer.

In fact, up to now, many people have guessed Caesar's iron-striking technology, but they still think that it is not so reliable, and the core energy with few impurities but unstable structure may collapse again, who dares to use it?

It is precisely because of this that the three master blacksmiths have not given the results of the test.

It seems that there is no suspense about the final result of this competition.

People couldn't help but feel relaxed, no matter what, there was going to be a result tonight.

There was only one person present whose face remained solemn, and this person was Nami. Nami has beautiful eyes that make her look more like a bewitching fox. Her gaze swept over the banquet scene, not missing a single detail, as if she wanted to see something.

The artifact bamboo bundle was still held behind her back, and the pale cyan javelin didn't have any power to shine through, but Nono, who was standing next to Nami, could feel it-

The artifact is working at full strength, with Nami.

In other words, Nami has used all her strength at this moment, and she is looking for something!

"It should be the power of blocking perception in the previous moment, my sister cares about ......," Nuno thought to himself.

Nono is really keen, her acuity has gone beyond the scope of rank, there are so many strong people who are higher than her level in the audience, but only she and Nami feel the perception shield that Russell used on everyone before.

Nami's eyes had narrowed into two crooked slits, and the light in them was getting colder.

And Nono stood next to Nami at close range, with no expression on his face, standing quietly beside him. She knew that her sister at this time could not be messed with.

Most people think the outcome is already predictable.

Nami's attention was completely off the contest, and she didn't think Caesar was going to win, she was just going to catch the guy who was blocking her perception and trying to help the easy to hide something.

Shiloh was also relieved after asking about the raw materials that were easy to break, and stood aside with a smile on his face at the moment, quietly recovering the mental and physical strength consumed by striking iron.

Everyone in the military department was faintly anxious.

The three master blacksmiths have not yet given results.

At this time, the eldest of the three masters came to Caesar, looked deeply into Caesar's eyes, and said, "Master Craftsman, there is something we want to confirm with you. ”

Caesar nodded: "Please speak." ”

The master took a deep breath and said, "For the fairness and impartiality of this competition, the competition venue has an automatic detection device, which means that it is impossible for you to carry the raw materials or finished products of the core energy in advance. ”

Caesar smiled: "I know, what do you want to say?"

The blacksmith said: "It's a shame to say this, we know that you can't cheat, because there are no circumstances and conditions for cheating, but ...... It's a little too incredible, and it's not convenient for us to ask you how you did it. ”

"So?"

"So......" said the three masters with solemn faces, "We want you, as a master craftsman, to ensure that you have not done anything that violates the basic rules of blacksmithing. I'm really sorry, it's not suspicious of you, it's just ...... It's true...... It's incredible......"

Caesar could actually understand what these three men were doing.

In the eyes of the surrounding guests, they must have lost out, and they saw that the three master blacksmiths had been testing for so long without results, and they only thought that the three masters could not reach a consensus on how to balance the "purity" and "structural integrity" of the work.

But they were all wrong.

His work, both in terms of structure and purity, is almost perfect.

The three masters struggled to give the test results, not because the purity of the work was too high and the structure was unstable, but because such a work made of broken raw materials was not only of first-class purity, but even the structure was stable and complete, as if it had never been broken!

Caesar looked at the three masters in front of him and said slowly, "I swear, do you believe me?"

The first one said: "It is no longer right to offend a craftsman, and we believe in your basic integrity and credibility as a craftsman. As long as you are willing to swear, we are willing to believe and vouch for the originality and quality of this work. ”

Caesar was silent for a moment, then slowly raised his hand and said in an ancient and solemn ritual that only blacksmiths would use, "Although I cannot reveal any more information, I assure you that there is no falsehood in the process of making this work. If you lie, you are willing to lose the power of the craftsman forever. ”

When the three masters saw such a formal understanding, their faces changed.

After hearing Caesar's solemn oath, the three of them looked at each other a few times and made a decision.

One of them cautiously and even reverently put Caesar's work back on the workbench, and then turned around, facing the audience who thought that there was no suspense about the results of the competition and their faces were a little relaxed, and faced Shiloh, Borynn, Jace, Elaine, and the military staff who were relaxed but still paying attention to this side, and said slowly: "Everyone, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time, but now the test has a result." ”

Shiloh looked over with a smile on his face.

Just listen to the blacksmith master continue: "After the inspection and unanimous agreement of the three of us, the difference between the two works is clearly more than twice as ......"

Shiloh was already on the verge of laughing, and even if he was young and old enough to hold his breath, he thought that such a moment was too pleasant.

Didn't you say that you are at least twice as skilled as mine, and what is the result, but my work is more than twice as good as yours!

The corners of Shiloh's mouth lifted slowly, then suddenly stopped at one point.

I saw that the elderly blacksmith master grabbed that Yi's hand, slowly raised it, and said slowly: "The winner of this competition is, Master Yi." ”

Shiloh still had a smile on his face, his expression was still so perfect, and the aristocratic training made his smile without any flaws.

But his smile was very stiff, his eyes were very blank, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears or brain, and after a long silence he asked, "You say...... What?"
