Chapter 693: The Grace of the God of Forging
Soon two more dwarves rushed in, each holding a metal basin.
Giharin first washed his hands with water, then soaked his hands in the holy oil that resembled engine oil, and solemnly prayed to Moradin, the god of the dwarven race, the chief of the dwarven gods, the father of the dwarves, and the soul forger, before he walked back to Gavin and solemnly took the war marauders.
After performing this sacred ritual, Jiharin was obviously a little different, and Gavin clearly sensed that there was an extra divine will in his body.
The spirit descends.
Giharin asked Moladin to descend on a part of his spirit.
This is not an possessed incarnation, far from that level, this is more similar to the original Zaranda, using himself as an anchor point, allowing the will of the gods to descend into this world in the form of divine soul tentacles, through him to see what he sees, to perceive what he perceives, to taste what he tastes, this is the ability that many powerful devout believers have, which is more advantageous in those racial gods, the connection between them will exist even if there is no faith, and it cannot be severed, even if you use reincarnation to change the physical form, but in essenceYou're still a dwarf.
Gavin pretended to be stupid and didn't know, the gods are also very realistic existences, if he can bring him value, he will naturally give himself attention, otherwise, no matter how pious your prayer is, the possibility of attracting him is very small, unless he is forced to do so.
After Jiharin took the war marauder, he first looked at it inside and out, and then carefully stroked it, his eyes were closed when he touched it, and his hands, which had just been soaked in holy oil, lit up with a metallic luster, and wherever he passed, the war marauder involuntarily lit up with a magical luster.
At first, the war marauder even let out a tremor hum, as if trying to escape from his grasp, and when this metallic luster lit up, it immediately became docile and let out a rhythmic hum, which made Gavin can't help but think of the puppy kitten who was being stroked by his chin.
"With the actual material as the material, the legend as the iron felt, and the divine power as the hammer forged, sure enough, since it is a high-level artifact, it is not forged by ordinary methods, it represents a kind of priesthood, plundering the priesthood, because whether it is the material or the process of casting it, it is a plundering process, your weapon is still a semi-finished product, if you want to really complete it, you must realize its long-cherished wish to cast, it can become a real high-level artifact." Giharin said to Gavin as he stroked the war marauders.
Semi-finished products?!
The War Marauder is already powerful like this, and it is not a real high-level artifact, and there is even greater potential to be tapped?
That's good news!
Who thinks their weapons are more powerful!
But what is the long-cherished wish of casting this hammer?
Gavin's first thought was to kill the immortal goddess of vengeance, Qiaran Sari, after all, this hammer was originally called the Bitch Terminator, and now it is still hanging on it as a special ability.
But when I think about it, it shouldn't be very accurate, because the Bitch Terminator is just its origin, and it really entered the ranks of high-level artifacts, or after the fusion of the plundering priesthood and the immortal divine spark through the injection plan of the Strategy Lady, the reason why it went so smoothly in the first place may be related to the hammer itself through plunder.
The process of Gavin's conflict with the immortal goddess of vengeance, Chiaran Sari, is, in fact, a process of continuous plundering from her, divinity, divine power, believers, and so on.
The long-cherished wish of simply killing a demigod who has fallen into a divine sleep as a high-level artifact seems to be a little smaller, whether it is the current Giharin or the original strategy lady, it has been mentioned that the high-level artifact represents an extreme law, that is, a certain kind of priesthood.
It does not represent the priesthood of immortality, but of the priesthood of plunder.
In fact, the process of his current use of the immortal priesthood is also a process of stealing and plundering.
And the plundering priesthood is the plunderer Callagos, should this matter be on him?
Whether it's or not, just try it and you'll know, anyway, the relationship between the two sides has already deteriorated, and they are all evil gods, there is no possibility of being good at all, even if they don't look for them, they will take the initiative to find them.
"I see, I see, I see, this is the real secret of casting artifacts, no wonder no matter how hard I worked before, no matter how powerful the forged magic equipment is, it is just an ordinary mortal, it turns out that the root is here, it is not a matter of ability, but that if mortals want to become artifacts, they must be in the user's body, and it is possible to open their divinity through legendary experience and gather their own beliefs."
Giharin couldn't help but laugh at the end, the sacred feeling in him had faded at this time, and he became the exiled dwarven king again, and at the same time handed the war marauder to Gavin, "Thank you, General, it was your weapon that made me understand one thing that I have not been able to figure out." ”
"It's just a matter of hands." Gavin smiled in response, "The patriarch just didn't point me in a new direction, making it more powerful, patriarch ......"
Gavin tugged lightly, the war marauder didn't get it back immediately, and the wandering dwarf king's expression seemed a little mysterious and gloomy.
At the moment of returning the war marauders, Giharin suddenly thought of a question, if he mastered this high-level artifact, would there be any hope for their Taysyama's recovery? Although I didn't fully peek into its attributes just now, I could clearly feel its strength, as if this world didn't have its own invincible enemies.
With a solemn expression, Gavin said in a deep voice: "Patriarch, I know what you are thinking, but if you want to restore the country, you can not only rely on a high-level artifact to solve it, if it is really that simple, this matter will not drag on until three centuries later, believe me, the plan I brought can surpass ten high-level artifacts." ”
I was careless this time, underestimating the allure of a high-level artifact, even a legendary blacksmith has no way to fight it, and it is easy not to take it out to show people in the future, let alone give it to others to watch.
While!
A phantom figure of a hammer and felt appeared above Jiharim's head, making a crisp hammering sound, and Jiharim's eyes immediately returned to clarity.
"I'm sorry, but I was greedy." Jiharin apologized as he loosened his grip on the war marauder and said, "When people are too obsessed with something, it is easier for the devil to take advantage of it, but your weapon is too powerful, and most of the power used in it is full of negativity, which is easy to further urge people's inner greed, and it is best not to show people this weapon easily in the future." ”
Obviously, the greed that Giharin just bred is not his own, there is also a certain magic effect, he himself has a certain ability to fight against this aspect, otherwise, there will be some trouble next, after all, he is now on other people's territory, Gavin can't help but secretly scream a fluke.
I also helped identify a hidden ability, but I didn't expect this hammer to have this demagogic dark ability, but it was born by myself, and I didn't feel much, Ms. Strategy was born with resistance as a god, and Giharin was the only outsider who handled this high-level artifact.
But if you introspect, your desires in all aspects seem to have become heavier than before in recent times, but it's hard to say whether this kind of thing is the temptation of war marauders, or whether it was bred after your strength became stronger, after all, I was not the kind of saint who had no desires and no desires from the beginning, but I was more restrained and self-disciplined in some things.
Hey!
As soon as the war marauder re-entered it, Gavin immediately noticed something different, it seemed to become lighter and lighter.
Skull Crusher (Magical Property) - When this weapon hits an enemy, it will completely crush the enemy's skull into powder (if any) and will not work against non-vital mobs (clay creatures, golems, living plants, certain undead).
Lightness (Magical Properties) - This weapon is blessed by magic, in the user's hands, it will be much lighter than the actual weight, using a weapon with this magical property, you can swing the weapon more powerful and dexterous than usual, just as the strength value is increased by two points compared to the normal state, and it can bring an additional +1 in attack and damage, and the user can swing a weapon with one hand that is one model larger than the body classification, and apply the corresponding weapon skillful expertise to it.
The touch of Molastin's soul on Giharim's body was not touched in vain, and it actually gave the war marauder two magical characteristics, although these magical characteristics are relatively ordinary magic weapon characteristics, but their usefulness cannot be denied.
Normally, the value of the magical trait of a skull crush is far greater than lightness, but the Warmarauder has the special ability to change weight, and with this lightness is equivalent to an extra boost, not only is it easier to wield, but in the same situation, the weight is also greater.
Taken together, these two magical traits make the War Marauder more powerful and further increase its evil nature.
Gavin hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you Patriarch for your help in making my weapon stronger." ”
"It's not me that you should be thankful for, it's Moradin for his grace." Giharin responded with a smile.
"Thank you for the grace of the God of Forging." Gavin took the opportunity to respond, "If there are no other problems, I'll start using adamantide. ”
"Let's get started."
Alchemy!
Gavin focused his thoughts on the war marauders, and a golden light spread from above, enveloping the set of adamantite alloy armor it was aimed at.
The Adamantite Alloy Armor broke away from the dwarf's hand on the spot and levitated into the air, beginning to melt and wriggle, fine-tuning to a certain extent, but this range was not particularly large, and it was quickly completed, and when they re-framed, it was also their attributes that came to Gavin's mind for a moment, like equipment made by destroying evil.
Adamantite armor.
This is a +5 Full Body Armor forged by the legendary blacksmith Giharim himself, using Adamantide, with a damage reduction of 25/+3, which is comparable in weight to a normal Full Body Armor.
There is no ability to transform into a cuirass, nor is it shrouded in light that makes it impossible to look directly.
Only the unpretentious and powerful damage reduction ability is even more fierce than the original version of the battle armor, and the initial damage reduction is only 25/+1 without Gavin's successive upgrades, that is, a +1 magic weapon can suppress this reduction ability, and this one needs +3.
The other two are the same as this one, both in appearance and in attributes.
Giharin explained on the side: "I gave up the other complicated abilities of the combat armor you mentioned, but borrowed the magic effect produced by its physical structure, and greatly amplified its damage reduction ability, in terms of convenience, it is slightly inferior to the combat armor, and the practicality is not bad at all, especially the mass equipment of the army, and the relatively cheap manufacturing price, as long as you have a sufficient amount of pure gold, you can mass produce it." ”
"If it's used to equip the army, it's enough." Gavin nodded in satisfaction, he hadn't expected a 100% replica of the Battle Armor, the kind of magic armor that at a glance was not a pure blacksmith's arm, but a joint creation with a powerful mage who was proficient in the making of magical items.
The repeated upgrades of his battle armor after are all unattainable, including the infusion of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, there is no way to reproduce it, because its upgrade is piggybacking, and the main reason for the problem is the special condition of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree.
If you use such pure gold armor to equip the middle and low-level commanders of your army, it will greatly improve their survivability on the battlefield, and they are the foundation of the tenacious vitality of the battlefield, as long as they are still on the battlefield, ordinary soldiers will not easily collapse, even if they are broken, as long as they survive, they can also be quickly reorganized.
"I wonder how much the patriarch will offer them? Can you sell them to me? Gavin asked tentatively.
This kind of powerful armor is usually not for sale, especially the Iron Clan, who is tasked with recovering the country, they will definitely hoard this powerful equipment to recover their homeland.
Although these three pieces of pure gold armor are all built according to human standards, all magic armor has the ability to adjust the body shape in a small range, whether it is dwarf or human, back or orc, as long as the same tone is completed, when worn, it seems to be tailor-made.
"It's not for sale." Jiharin smiled heartily and said, "This was originally a small gift prepared by our Iron Clan for the General, as long as we cooperate, will the number of this armor be less?" ”
As soon as the adamantine technique came out, it was not certain whether the other party was Gavin the Conqueror, the supreme commander of the conqueror's army, but it was the person with whom he had been communicating with one hundred percent sure.
As the top blacksmith in Faerun, Giharin knew the value of this alchemy.
In this world, there are very few full-body armor made of pure pure gold, even if it is chain mail, I have only seen Mithril, I have never heard of pure gold, and most of the pure gold armor and pure gold weapons on the market are alloyed.
Not only because the price of pure gold is amazing, the production is scarce, but also because the weight of this thing is also quite amazing, if it is used to forge full-body armor, if the armor surface is too thin, it is not as strong as a steel plate of several centimeters, if it is too thick, it often weighs hundreds of kilograms, and there is no way to move when you wear it, and there are spells that can assist in reducing weight, but it is relatively limited, generally reduced by half or a few fractions, and those that can make it light as a feather are not ordinary magic.
Adamantite is one of them, which not only gives the Adamantite alloy its pure Adamantite properties, but also keeps the weight at the level of the Adamantite Alloy.
But this spell is not an ordinary spell, but the supreme spell of the elves, the kind that is extremely expensive to cast, and the elves will not use it easily.
This shows the value of Gavin's uncompromised performance, and after the two sides start to cooperate, this alone can make both parties make a lot of money.
"Then you're welcome, these three barrels of ghost wine are a return gift." Gavin pulled out three barrels of Vizeme Manor's specialty from the Portable Dimension Cave.
In addition to stubbornness and forging, good drinking and loving drinking is their third racial label.
There are two places in human cities where dwarves are most likely to be encountered, one is the blacksmith shop and the other is the tavern.
They are accompanied by a furnace fire and earth fire all year round, and are typically exuberant insiders, making them the most suitable group for the characteristics of ghost wines.
Sure enough, all the dwarves present seemed to glow with their eyes when they looked at the ghost wine, and they wanted to open them with their eyes and pour two glasses into their stomachs.
"This is a good thing that money can't buy, and when the General held the ghost wine auction in the Land of Three Rivers, we got the news too late, and we only got ten bottles from those black-hearted wine merchants at a high price.
I can't forget that taste until now, as if I just tasted it yesterday, and if I could, I hope that we can establish a long-term supply relationship and give us the right of first refusal. Jiharin said with a blushing face.
This is another proof of the identity of the other party, and it is basically Gavin the Conqueror.
"As long as the number is not exaggerated, there should be no problem." With the increase of resources in his hands, the value of ghost wine in Gavin's hands is no longer a simple commodity, but a unique tool used to establish diplomatic relations.
"Good, good, good." Giharin hurriedly reassured, "We are not ready to enter this trade, but this magic wine is very helpful in stimulating our forging inspiration, and we are only using it for our own use." ”
It's not that Ji Harin is honest and doesn't even know the most basic business principles, but he knows that with the other party's current value, there is no need to cheat them in this regard, and he will definitely give them according to the lowest wholesale price, just like they can't make his money on pure gold equipment, this is just an accessory to their deeper cooperation.
