174. Technical forking
The act of pulling the dagger from the back of the waist took Berengar by surprise.
Although the relationship between the two of them is quite harmonious according to the old witcher himself. But anyone who sat at the same table with someone like Lan En trembled at the sight of him drawing a knife.
Fortunately, Belengar was born as a witcher after all. He quickly overcame the slight fear that had been born because of the disparity.
Attention shifted to the knife edge of the table.
With a pattern like water waves, the black lines are as deep as black smoke, and the blade is deeply attracted to Belengar.
"The handle is the same as the bone you brought back, it's a keel. But the blade. Three-piece forging? No, I've never seen a pattern like this after stacking and forging. ”
Belengar looked up at Lanne.
"Can you get started?"
"Whatever you want."
Belengar immediately picked up the keel dagger, put it in front of his eyes, and from time to time scraped the blade with his flexible fingers.
"It's also light, it's tough, too."
The old witcher looked down at his wolf-head necklace.
"There is no trace of magic in these properties. You got this from another world? What steel? ”
Belengar has been completely aroused.
He is the most gifted person in the wolf school. The Witcher's arduous and dangerous training led him to use forging as a way to vent his stress and fears.
So the more you train, the more addicted you become, and the more skilled you become.
"Valyrian steel, the best steel in the world. I heard that the magic is applied at the stage of the iron ore blank, and then the things that are made will naturally become like this. ”
Lan En tapped the blade of the dagger on the table, making a crisp "ding" sound.
With his backhand, he pulled out the steel sword of the High Bear School on his back and put it on the table.
The sword body, which was originally as clear as autumn water, had an inconspicuous opening that was keenly captured by Belengal.
"You used this dagger to slash at the steel sword?"
"I can't even talk about slashing, I just used the blade of my sword to pinch my strength, and that's it."
Lanne's words made Berengarh even more surprised.
According to Lann, this dagger does not contain materials such as monster tissues that can greatly strengthen the strength of steel.
Just ordinary steel, which is enchanted at the beginning of forging, can suppress the high steel sword of a demon hunter in terms of toughness. The intensity is a little scary.
Among the Witcher's school equipment, [High] is not low. On it, there are only [Best] and [Grandmaster].
However, these two levels of witcher equipment may not be able to pull out a set of finished products after searching the entire school. To be honest, it was a stroke of luck to find a set of drawings.
The [Enhanced] and [Advanced] level Witcher equipment is the main equipment of all schools.
Demon hunters wear these gears to hunt griffins, clear the spirits, and fight runaway golems. As you can imagine, the strength of these pieces of equipment is more than a star and a half stronger than what ordinary people use to fight each other.
This difference in equipment strength is caused by a combination of opponent's strength and equipment cost.
Therefore, when Lan En fought against the knight with full-body plate armor, although the shape of the long sword was not suitable for armor piercing, he didn't have to worry about not being able to hold it when he really cut it.
"It's a strange thing from another world."
Belengar touched his chin with interest, and the old witcher saw the young man's intentions at once.
"You want me to see if I can reproduce it?"
Lan En nodded openly.
"Valyrian steel has a lot of potential, and I think it will work well if it can be replicated. And maybe you can play some tricks on the original school drawings. ”
"I can try, but you'll have to pay me and have money for trial and error."
Lan said that it was a matter of course.
He and Belengar have been in an employment relationship since they were tutoring witchers. Their relationship is getting better, but both parties also feel that this model is quite good and there is no need to change.
Lan En has heard a lot of good brothers and good friends falling out over money in his hometown world, and he doesn't want to step on this kind of pit.
Everyone is a friend, but what should be given is not less.
Anyway, he is almost 20,000 gold coins on his body now, and he is not short of a blacksmith's expenses.
After negotiating the wages, Belengar tilted his head in Margarita's direction and motioned for Rann to blow the wind.
"Valyrian steel involves magic, and we need professionals."
That is, the Warlock.
A slightly hoarse and charming voice interjected before Lan En could speak.
"I can help."
Lan En looked at the blonde beauty beside him in surprise.
"You're here in person? It won't affect your work, will it? ”
Margarita smiled slightly. In fact, Tishaya, who has stepped down as the dean, really hopes that Margarita will have a job that can be influenced.
Because that at least means that the sorceress still has a job to do!
"No, it won't. The idea of forging Valyrian steel is very different from ours here, and we and Ben Ade College generally buy finished swords that have been directly crafted, and sell them at a high price after enchantment. There was no Warlock involved in the process of the ore smelting stage. Maybe I'll be able to get something out of the process of replicating Valyrian steel. ”
I don't think the reason why any warlock has ever set his sights on the ore smelting stage is mainly because they are dirty and afraid of heat
Lan En sneered in his heart.
"Oh, yes." Suddenly as if he remembered something, Belengar finished the beer in his cup in one gulp and stood up.
"It's not early, I have to, I have to get some rest."
So saying, he turned and walked to his room in the tavern.
Lan En looked at the window on the wooden wall in wonder, the sky was clear and the sun was shining.
You told me it wasn't early in the middle of the day, did you?
Immediately, he felt his collar being grabbed by a soft hand, and dragged him forcefully into the tavern room.
"Indeed, it's getting late, Lan."
This force is not strong, but the attitude is resolute. So Lan En could only go along.
"Rita, that's not my room."
"Yes, there's no room for you." The sorceress replied calmly. "Except for the old witcher, I've got the rest of the room covered."
Lan En opened his mouth, there was nothing to say.
Wherever the master is, he is the master!
Upon entering the room, Lane noticed that the ordinary tavern room in the village had changed drastically. Hides, soft beds, paintings.
There's even a big dresser against the wall!
The hand on the collar pressed against his shoulder, pressing him to the soft bed.
Margarita's plump and round body pressed against Lanen, and the two of them were so close that they could feel each other's snorts.
"It was Erethusa who funded your operation, Ran. You don't think that selling Meliged in front of the kingdom will pay it off, right? She had graduated more than ten years earlier. ”
I have to say that Margarita is really suitable for rich and flamboyant makeup, which makes her charm magnified.
But on that delicate face, the ambiguous smile made Lan En feel like a girl from a good family who was about to be forced to submit by the rich second generation.
This sense of dislocation of identity made Lan En a little panicked.
"But we didn't put it in the contract at the time!"
Lan En's eyes glanced down, then quickly brushed them aside.
It's so fierce! It's so fierce!
Margarita smiled even more happily when she saw this, like a fox who had stolen a chicken.
Her fingers ran over Lane's sideburns.
"I've seen the video, but I didn't expect you to be like this. Seductive! ”
The blonde beauty was closer, and Lan En could even feel the terrifying weight of his chest!
Finally, the flaming red lips pressed close to Lan En's earlobe, giving out a villain-like teaser.
"I've never heard of a witcher having an advantage in a contract, Lane. I've got to teach you something, never."
"Demon hunters should listen to their employers. Ha ha! ”
