Chapter 18: Jiancheng
Wind worry-free home
Feng Wuwu pointed to the mutated crystal block on the table, "Although I don't know if this thing is a magic crystal block, there is no doubt that it is also a type of mutated mineral." β
"It's... Crystal block mutation? β
"Yes."
"It's amazing, I've never seen anything like this..."Wagner rummaged in his head for a long time before two words popped out of his mouth.
"Strange!"
"That's right, I can only describe it as bizarre! How did this come about, and what was the orange thing inside? My years of experience in forging have taught me that this is definitely a good thing. Me, can I really use it to forge weapons? Wagner spoke incoherently with excitement.
Feng Wuwu could understand Wagner's mood, but he still kindly reminded him, "For us, this is indeed a unique ore, which means that none of us know its properties and whether it can be forged into weapons, these are unknowns." β
"Of course I know, but the unknown also means a challenge." Wagner seems to have faith in the stone. "Can I touch it?"
"Absolutely."
"Hey, it's even warm?" Wagner was visibly taken aback, "It's amazing, it's the first time I've seen this kind of ore, and it's very light." β
Looking at Wagner's ecstatic appearance, Feng Wuwu did not interrupt without sound, and his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.
After a long time, Wagner reluctantly put the ore back into the distance.
"Well, can this thing be forged?"
"Since this thing is mutated with a crystal block as a carrier, it should be okay, but..."
Wagner looked at Feng Wuwu with a confused expression, "Now there is another problem, I don't know exactly what the orange substance inside this ore is, which undoubtedly adds a lot of risk in forging, in case there is an explosion during the smelting process..."
"Don't worry, uncle, it shouldn't explode."
"Should?" Wagner seemed to realize something, and his expression was a little strange, "Listening to your tone, it seems to know what this thing is?" β
"Ahem, probably." Feng Wuwu didn't want the other party to know that he had made this thing.
Wagner raised his eyebrows, looked at him deeply, and did not continue to ask.
"Then the question is, what kind of weapon do you want..."
Three days later, the blacksmith shop
"Uncle, you can't do it."
"Stinky boy, you dare to say that I can't, I'm the best blacksmith in Mondstadt." As he spoke, Wagner shouted at Schutz on the other side.
"Schutz, control the temperature of the flames, we only have this one chance, and if we fail, everything will be over."
"Yes, master!" Schutz replied loudly.
"Alright, now is the most critical step, smelting the ore." really came to this point, and the two of them were a little bottomless in their hearts.
"Whether it can be achieved depends on this step." Feng Wuwu put the ore in the furnace with his tools, and then it was a nervous wait.
I don't know how long it took, and the ore finally showed signs of melting under the surprised eyes of the two.
"It worked!"
"yes, we made it." Wagner's excitement was not much less than that of Wind Carefree, and his lifelong wish was to forge a well-known weapon. Decades of sweat and hard work are finally coming true at this moment.
"Leave it to me." οΌ
Feng Wuwu felt the heat and firmness in his uncle's tone, "Please, uncle." β
In the end, Feng Wuwu left the blacksmith shop step by step, and he couldn't help with the next things, so it was better to leave the space to him than to get in the way.
The only thing he can do now is believe, isn't it?
Two days later....
On this night, Wind Carefree routinely farts and chats at the tavern, and the guests here gradually get used to the strange teenager and are attracted by the adventures he tells.
Yes, I don't know when it began, Feng Wuwu became the 'storyteller' here, and the wonderful bizarre adventure story and the ups and downs of the plot arrangement made this group of otherworldly residents shout wonderful.
And today's story is about a girl who came here from another world to find her brother.
Halfway through the story, he was interrupted by a sudden arrival.
"Is it Schutz? Could it be thatβ" Feng Wuwu looked at Schutz hopefully, and the other party's next words also confirmed his conjecture.
"Brother Feng, my master has succeeded!"
"Really, great!" Feng Wuwu jumped up from the chair excitedly, "I'm sorry everyone, I'll be here first today, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first." β
"Schutz, let's go."
"Hmm."
As soon as the smoke slipped away, Feng Wuwu and Schutz disappeared into the tavern, and only the rest of the people looked at each other blankly. Soon, however, the tavern was back to its usual noisy appearance....
Blacksmith's shop
"Uncle, it worked!?"
"Wind boy, I've put a lot of effort into your sword. This meal of wine is not enough, haha~~"
Seeing that the uncle was joking, Feng Wuwu's hanging heart also let go, and then said with a smile, "No problem, if the uncle goes to the angel's gift to drink in the future, he will directly record it on my account." Compared to this sword, a little bit of wine money is nothing. β
"Okay, I just like the boldness of your kid, and I have an appetite." The uncle pointed to the sword on the forging table, "Why don't you try it, to be honest, I also want to know what effect this sword will have in the end." β
Although Wagner was sweating profusely, his heart was hot and excited. The sword, although successfully forged, has not yet been tested for its final effect.
"Okay, without further ado, let's try it out of the city now." Picking up the one-handed sword on the forging table, Feng Wufu went straight to the back door of Mondstadt, which was downstairs near the sea.
On the way, Feng Wuwu looked at the long sword in his hand curiously. The shape of this sword is somewhat similar to that of the silver sword, or the shape of the silver sword itself is an imitation of the knight's sword of the European Middle Ages. The silver sword was originally a one-handed sword type that had been used by Feng Wufu for a long time, so the final shape was made according to the shape of the silver sword.
As for the crafting materials, in addition to the mutated crystal blocks, Wagner also took out the contents of his pressing box in order to be able to forge a peerless long sword.
The sword is silvery-white as a whole, and the spine of the sword has a golden line about two fingers thick, spreading from the tip of the sword to the sword grid. The sword grid is gold with dark blue lines, luxurious and at the same time, it also takes into account a hint of low-key and calm. The hilt is a calm dark blue, and the final part of the sword is a dark purple gem.
Together, these make up this newly forged one-handed sword.
When he looked closely at the sword, he realized that the sword seemed to resemble the weapon used by a certain golden retriever, and it resembled her sword in both color and style, so much so that he was embarrassed to name the sword.
Could it be that you really steal the name next door?
After thinking about it, the two came to the river....
