Chapter 22: Sword Forging
The purest fourth-order thunder demon core!
Lu Chengfeng didn't care about the pain, and quickly stepped forward and dug out this magic core from the charred thunder beast corpse. Although this almost semi-translucent top-grade magic core was dim because the energy was consumed, the magic core itself was not damaged in the slightest. The only thing Lu Chengfeng needed to do was to recharge it when he went back.
Charging a dry core isn't something anyone can do, but it's not too hard.
After braving the rain to examine this piece of demon core for a long time, Lu Chengfeng finally determined that this fourth-order thunder demon core could completely serve as the energy storage core of his lightsaber. In this way, after the energy gathering materials and energy storage magic core are in hand, Lu Chengfeng only needs to draw the familiar classic lightssaber excitation circuit, and then he can find a craftsman to cast the sword.
This joy made Lu Chengfeng's fatigue and pain disappear after the fierce battle.
After thinking for a while, Lu Chengfeng, who had regained his composure, briefly cleaned up the battlefield, and then returned to the town of Thundering Heights in the rain. What made him a little dissatisfied was that the guard young man who was acting as a guide before probably thought that it was impossible for him to defeat the fourth-order thunder beast at all, so he sneaked away directly.
Don't even have the patience to wait for a while?
Such Chi Guoguo's disrespect made Lu Chengfeng a little angry, and he decided to go back and give that kid some eye medicine.
Probably because the thunderbeast that called for the wind and rain had been killed, this heavy rain ended faster than the previous rain. Almost as soon as Lu Chengfeng returned to Thundering Town, the rain had basically stopped. Several guards were dressed in robes and were about to go out of the village to investigate, and when they saw Lu Chengfeng's triumph, they couldn't help but be surprised and surrounded one after another.
"This is the corpse of the Devil's Beast?"
"That's right, the last time I went up to the top of the mountain with the captain, the monster that summoned thunder was like this. ”
"But, didn't you say that it was at least a fourth-order demonic beast?"
After a short period of surprise and discussion, several guards remembered to thank Lu Chengfeng. Seeing that he was alone, these guards also immediately realized something, and their faces became embarrassed: "What's the matter with Wang Er? Didn't you say that he should follow this swordsman, why did he run back in advance?"
For those who don't give themselves face, Lu Chengfeng will definitely not give him face. He deliberately showed a hint of dissatisfaction and said: "I don't know, anyway, I ordered him to wait for me below, but after the battle with the thunder beast, the person was gone." Maybe the battle was too fierce and I was scared by the sound of falling thunder...... Fortunately, I remember the way I came, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to come back for a business. ”
"I'm so sorry......"
Several guards are not stupid, how can they not hear Lu Chengfeng's dissatisfaction.
Although the person in front of him seemed to be only a third-order cultivator, he was an existence that could kill a fourth-order demonic beast, and his combat power was definitely beyond imagination. In order not to cause him dissatisfaction, several guards could only give him a warm reception, and then called the guard who sneaked away, reprimanded him fiercely in person, and made a promise of severe punishment, which was exchanged for Lu Chengfeng's slight nod.
In fact, Lu Chengfeng also knew that most of the words of these guards were just false and wrong. After he is gone, it may not be carried out. But even that's enough for the kid to drink a pot.
That's enough.
After resting here for a while, Lu Chengfeng returned to Kaiyang. After submitting the task, he retreated to his hotel room and began to map the map by selecting the most suitable one from the several classic lightsaber circuits he had prepared earlier.
Designing the inner workings of the lightsaber is a secret that only the lightsaber master knows. However, for the former lightsaber royalty, none of this was a problem. Every member of the Tianfeng Lu family is strictly required to be familiar with every part of the lightsaber. Because only by having the most thorough understanding can we maximize the power of the lightsaber.
At the beginning, Lu Chengfeng also complained about such harsh regulations. But now, he no longer has any dissatisfaction, instead of rejoicing.
If he hadn't mastered countless classic lightsaber circuits in the first place, how would he have finalized his first lightsaber?
Because it was determined that the magic core of the thunder system was used as an energy storage gem, what Lu Chengfeng finally planned to learn from was a famous sword in the early style of the Tianfeng Lu family - the Blue Shadow Thunder Light Sword!
Sharp and light, this sword has most of the conventional advantages of lightsaber-like weapons. The unique excitation circuit design makes it smoother when it releases three stages. If Lu Chengfeng gets it in his hands, maybe he can extend the three-stage slash to the fourth-stage now. In addition, due to the use of high-quality thunder demon cores, when the sword body is full of energy, Lu Chengfeng can take the initiative to activate the lightsaber and unleash an amazingly powerful thunder at the designated location.
Once such a powerful weapon is forged, its power is completely comparable to that of the fifth-order silver makeup knife in the previous auction.
Because it is classic enough, its lightsaber excitation circuit Lu Chengfeng is not easy to copy directly.
It took Lu Chengfeng nearly a day.
The three elements of the lightsaber are all prepared, and finally the sword is cast. Since entering Kaiyang, he has been spending his spare time paying attention to the top blacksmith grandmasters in the city. Up to now, there have been five or six companies that have been selected by him and have good reputation and credit.
The huge city of Kaiyang has a population of several million, of course, it is impossible to have only so many blacksmith masters. However, Lu Chengfeng is very demanding. It must be high enough to ensure a successful casting, and it must be good enough to pass the character and have a strict mouth so that it will not casually leak the lightsaher circuit he took out.
The latter, in particular, is what he cares about the most.
Lu Chengfeng is determined to revitalize the lightsaber school and regain the glory of the lightsaber royal family, of course, he can't rely on himself alone. He would have disclosed this information related to lightsabers sooner or later, but not now. With the Lu family's light swordsmanship but not yet grown, he is like a child swaggering in the downtown with gold nuggets. For a period of time in the future, it is best to control the lightsaber within a certain range of his mastery, so as not to attract the covetousness of those who have a heart too early!
However, the results of the visits one by one made Lu Chengfeng very dissatisfied.
These blacksmith masters are worthy of their name. After getting Lu Chengfeng's materials, drawings and standards, most of them said that they could be forged. But after reading the specific details, none of these blacksmith masters dared to promise a successful forging.
This is actually understandable.
The structure of the lightsaber is almost fundamentally different from other greatswords, short swords, and swords. The lightsaber circuit that Lu Chengfeng took out is a classic from thousands of years ago, delicate and complex. They had never touched a lightsaber before, and they didn't dare to boast about being 100% sure the first time.
If they could prepare two more sword-forging materials, these masters would be confident that they would be able to forge a weapon that met Lu Chengfeng's requirements.
However, Lu Chengfeng was no longer the prince of the Heavenly Wind Empire, who was so rich that he could prepare so many materials for them to try slowly?
After four successive failures, Lu Chengfeng was a little disappointed and found the last blacksmith shop. This is a very famous shop in Kaiyang City, and the owner is a blacksmith master of the Northern Barbarian Clan. Since the average lifespan of these alien races is much longer than that of humans, Lu Chengfeng also put his last hope on this master of the Northern Barbarian Clan.
"Yo, isn't this a lightsaber? ”
Lu Chengfeng had given enough tips and successfully met the Northern Barbarian blacksmith, who was leaning on a sledgehammer as tall as himself, drunkenly pouring soju. After casually glancing at Lu Chengfeng's drawings and materials, he touched his reddened rosacea with some confusion and asked, "Where did you get this thing?"
Lu Chengfeng avoided answering, and just asked: "This question is not important, the key is master, can you succeed in forging at one time?"
"No problem......"
The blacksmith of the Northern Barbarian Clan waved his hand, as if he was a little dissatisfied with Lu Chengfeng's questioning, and said loudly: "Looking at the materials you prepared, at most it is a light sword for the third and fourth orders, why is it difficult?"
This answer immediately lifted Lu Chengfeng's spirits.
Although the blacksmith of the Northern Barbarian Clan in front of him looked drunk, he was a little unbearable. But in fact, once they came to their senses, the forging talent that went deep into their blood definitely allowed them to forge the top works. Lu Chengfeng had no doubts at all, and said, "So, what conditions do you need to forge this sword?"
"Are the conditions ......?"
The Northern Barbarian poured another big sip of wine, probably because of the rising stamina, and he said a little confused: "For the sake of the lightsaber is still very interesting, I will casually collect a deposit of five thousand gold coins." But after the casting is successful, I want to engrave my name on it. ”
This is the most common way for blacksmiths on the Mofeng Continent to increase their fame, and there is no problem, Lu Chengfeng directly agreed.
"Well, let me think about it...... By the way, I still want wine! You go to Yinyue Restaurant and get me two bottles of gladiolus soju, the strongest wine produced in Longxi, and the others don't. ”
Gladiolus?
Lu Chengfeng nodded and wrote down the name. After making sure that the other party had no other requirements, Lu Chengfeng politely said goodbye, and then went straight to Yinyue Restaurant. It was a very famous restaurant, and Lu Chengfeng had heard about it several times after he was reborn, but he had never been there in person, so he was somewhat curious.
With some anticipation, Lu Chengfeng came to Yinyue Restaurant.
It doesn't look too big from the outside, but it's actually very spacious inside. The tavern is decorated in a spirit-like style, and there is a band playing light and cheerful music on the organ and rattan flute. In the very center of the tavern, there seems to be a dueling arena. There are often duels and duels here for the tavern patrons to enjoy.
Maybe it's afternoon, and there aren't many people in the restaurant.
