Chapter 5: Upgrading the Sword
The net weight of the hammer is one hundred and eighty catties, and Lin Minglei was ruthless in order to increase the strength of the hammer, and specially smelted a small section of meteorite in it, the size of a baby's fist, which greatly increased its weight.
It can be said that this hammer is a weapon, a white-level excellent weapon.
One hundred and eighty catties, although it is heavy, this kind of weight is nothing in the eyes of Lin Minglei and Jiang Ye's father and son. Lin Minglei's strength is as high as 30, which is much higher than Jiang Ye's 15.
After these years of training, Jiang Tianbang's strength has also increased from 9 at the beginning to 22 now, and more than ten years of uninterrupted iron hammer swinging has trained his almost iron body.
Although the weight of the hammer was dispensable in Jiang Ye's eyes, the hammer that had just been lifted and was about to be swung out was shouted to stop, which still made Jiang Ye's heart unhappy.
Especially in this rapid shout, there was a sense of anger.
Jiang Ye frowned, put the hammer in his hand on the table, looked at the big man who was rushing over, and was about to speak, but Lin Minglei, who was standing on the side, took the lead and shouted, "Lu San, what are you shouting?" Howling. ”
"I... I.. ”
I don't know if I was shocked by Lin Minglei's shouting, or if I really forgot what I was going to say, Lu San, who was standing in front of him, didn't say anything for a while, which caused the people around him who were attracted by his shouting to laugh.
Jiang Ye was also amused by his reaction, the dissatisfaction just now disappeared without a trace in an instant, this person didn't look like he was here to find fault.
Seeing Lin Minglei shouting out the other party's name, and in this tone, Jiang Ye knew that this person must be an acquaintance.
Lu San is tall and big, his thick beard almost covers half of his face, and he also has a bald head, he glanced at Jiang Ye before he reacted to the original intention of running in a hurry, and said hurriedly, "Brother Lin, how can you. How can you let a child forge a weapon for the Sprinkle family. Even if you don't do it yourself, it should be Master Jiang, how can you let him go. ”
Lu San said this, stretched out his index finger and pointed at Jiang Ye, the meaning was obvious, he couldn't trust Jiang Ye's skills.
As the world knows, forging equipment is also a craft, and it is a matter of level, and it is not that anyone can forge it with a hammer and a battlefall.
Battle Meteor is a general term for meteorites that can increase combat effectiveness by smashing and falling to the ground in the past.
More than 500 years have passed since the fall of the war, and after more than 500 years of development, people have set up corresponding levels for them in order to distinguish the level of people who forge equipment.
They make a living by striking iron all day long, so they are collectively called blacksmiths.
Blacksmiths can be divided into apprentice blacksmiths, junior blacksmiths, intermediate blacksmiths, advanced blacksmiths, master blacksmiths, grandmaster blacksmiths, legendary blacksmiths, sub-god blacksmiths, and divine craftsmen!
The apprentice blacksmith represents the ability to forge white-level equipment, the junior blacksmith can forge black-level equipment, the intermediate blacksmith can forge red-level equipment, and in turn, the sub-god-level blacksmith can forge blue-level equipment, and the god-level blacksmith can forge purple-level equipment!
Those who can forge the ultimate purple-level equipment can indeed be called gods!
Now there are more than 6 billion people in the entire federation, and only one person can obtain the honor of this "divine craftsman"!
He's a good guy!
The blacksmiths of each level can be divided into five levels, for example, the apprentice blacksmith can be divided into: apprentice 1, apprentice 2, apprentice 3, apprentice 4 and apprentice 5.
The division from this to the fifth layer corresponds to the five grades of equipment: "ordinary, good, high-quality, excellent, and legendary".
For example, a blacksmith who can forge black-level excellent equipment can be called a junior blacksmith at the fourth level; A blacksmith who can forge red-grade equipment can be called a second-level blacksmith.
In Lu San's heart, Lin Minglei should be a blacksmith with a fourth-layer apprentice, forged by him, he will definitely be able to forge the weapon he wants, and Jiang Tianbang Jiang's skills don't seem to be bad.
"What is he not him, this kid is also surnamed Jiang, Master Jiang's son, my apprentice!" Lin Minglei walked up to Jiang Ye, patted him on the solid shoulder, and introduced to Lu San.
And Jiang Ye also knew why Lu San did this to him at this time, it turned out that he was extremely distrustful of his forging skills.
The knife he is forging now is for him. However, when did he become Lin Minglei's apprentice, it seems that his skills were taught by his father.
However, his father's "Three Stacks Mountain" was also taught by him Lin Minglei.
"Your apprentice?" Lu San showed a look of hesitation on his face, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "This is not good, Brother Lin, this knife, you know, is really important to the Sprinkle family!" ”
Lu San looks full of beard, but in fact, he is not very old, only twenty-five or sixteen, he moved from other places two years ago, and there is only one grandmother in her seventies at home, who is a well-known filial son.
It's just that Jiang Ye usually stays at school, and the two haven't met.
Although Lu San looks fierce and evil, he looks evil, but his character is actually good. I yelled at Jiang Ye just now, I was really anxious.
The final quality of this knife is indeed very important to him.
Lu San's current basic combat power is 18, and he also uses a knife, and the knife technique he practices is the same as Jiang Ye's, the plum blossom knife method, he spent 200 federal coins to let a student from Jinchuan High School teach him.
Although the plum blossom knife method is the teaching content of Jinchuan High School and is an open class, it is only for students, and Lu San wants to learn it, but he is still not qualified.
The plum blossom knife technique is a human-level medium-grade martial art, and the price in the exchange can be as high as 10,000 federal coins, Lu San didn't have that much money, so he had to spend 200 federal coins to get this martial art from a student.
It's just that the sword technique has been staying at the first layer, and there is no inch of progress, and the combat power bonus is only 10.
So up to now, Lu San's combat effectiveness is only 28.
Like Jiang Ye, he also wanted to go to the suburbs outside to hunt an insect and beast called sand roundworms, which he used to sell to pharmacies to make medicine and earn some money to improve the family's condition.
In today's federation, the degree of mechanization has far exceeded that of manual labor, so many people do not work, these people just receive federal relief funds to live, enough to have food and clothing.
But Lu San is a filial son, and there is only one grandmother in the family, and when her grandmother is old, Lu San wants to give her better and more care, but these all need money.
Lu San no longer remembers, his grandmother has not eaten fresh fruit for a long time, just to save money for his grandson and buy the war knife he wants.
Lu San knew that to hunt sand rounds, the combat strength should at least exceed 35, or he would go to death. The combat effectiveness of the sand ascaris is between thirty and fifty, and one more combat power is one more chance of winning and one more capital to save one's life.
And if you want higher combat effectiveness, you can only rely on this combat knife!
If the final quality of this combat knife is white-level ordinary, and it can only add 5 combat power, then Lu San's combat power is 33.
With this, there is less than a 10% chance of survival.
If you are unlucky and encounter a sand ascaris that is particularly strong and has top combat power, you may be killed in seconds.
But if the quality of this sword is a white-level good, you can add 10 combat power, so that the combat power will reach 38, and his chance of survival can directly reach 40%.
If it is a white-level boutique, it is even better, Lu San's combat power will reach 43, and the chance of survival is nearly 90%, and if he can't beat it, he should be able to escape, and the agility of the sand sand is never high.
That's why Lu Sancai said that this knife is very important to him, almost to his life, so he will have the same reaction as he did just now.
"I know." Lin Minglei nodded, "But since you believe in my strength, you should believe in my vision and what I said, I said that my apprentice can forge the battle knife you want, and he will definitely be able to." ”
There was an unquestionable tone in Lin Minglei's words, which made Jiang Ye on the side feel for the first time that Uncle Lin, who had always loved to joke with himself, still had such a majesty when he was serious.
However, Jiang Ye also had a little doubt in his heart, he didn't know why Uncle Lin Minglei had to forge this weapon by himself today, looking at Lu San's appearance was not like he was joking, this knife was really important to him.
But although I have learned the "Three Stacks of Mountains" taught by my father, and I usually pay attention to watching from the sidelines, there is only one chance to really practice, and that is when I forge that war knife for myself.
Although the quality of the final battle knife is a white-level good product, I heard my father say that this result is already very good, after all, it is only a piece of war fall the size of an index finger.
As a result, if he were to forge it, it wouldn't be much stronger.
Jiang Ye thought about it, and those observations who usually stood on the side still had a certain effect.
But even so, Jiang Ye was not confident that he could forge a battle knife that satisfied Lu San, after all, he had too few opportunities to practice, and the other party was still so picky.
"This..."
When Lu San heard Lin Minglei say this, the hesitation on his face eased slightly, but he still held a reluctant look.
Seeing this, Lin Minglei suddenly smiled and said, "Lu San, I told you when you provided me with the Battle Fall, your Battle Fall is three inches in size, and the best forging result is also a white-level high-quality product, right?" ”
"Yes!" Lu Sanurn nodded angrily.
"What do you think of this?" Lin Minglei continued, "The forging is still forged by my apprentice, and Master Jiang and I don't do it, if there is no white-level boutique in the final result, I will accompany you with a war knife of the same quality, how about it?" ”
"This..."
Lu San was not reluctant this time, but he felt embarrassed, because Lin Minglei also said at the time that the best result would be a white-level boutique, but there was only a 40% probability, and the biggest possibility was a white-level good.
Lin Minglei just said that, and Lu San felt that he had earned it.
"Good!"
Lu San still nodded, compared with the bad thoughts, his own life and grandma are more important.
And unlike Lu San's joy, Jiang Ye on the side was stunned, looking at Uncle Lin Minglei in confusion, I really don't know why he would say such a thing, he is so confident in himself?
Even Jiang Tianbang was puzzled when he heard Lin Minglei's words.
You must know that the price difference between white-level good products and white-level high-quality war knives is more than 20,000 federal coins.
"Jiang Ye, let's start."
Lin Minglei patted Jiang Ye's shoulder again, "Don't be distracted, just follow what your father taught you later, you will definitely be able to do it." ”
"Yes!"
Jiang Ye nodded heavily.
