Chapter Sixty-Four: The Legendary Blacksmith Thorin
Romero can still only be the middleman, and it is Merlin who is really responsible for the contact.
The northeast corner of the Dark Market was originally an open space because it was too remote to set up a stall to do business, but now it has been turned into a campground, with many tents standing outside, and many children can be seen playing outside the tents.
One of the largest tents made a clanging sound, like iron.
Along the way, Merlin introduced that the blacksmith was a short, strong, dark-skinned blacksmith who was a skilled blacksmith who used to make some strange iron artifacts for the owners of supernatural powers in need.
"As long as you give him the drawings, he can make even the most strange things. ”
Romero interjected.
"I hope to be able to restore the precision firearms from the age of technology. ”
Tang Ning thought so and followed behind Master Merlin.
Arriving at the entrance of the tent, Romero stopped and clutched his stomach.
"I'm a little sick to my stomach, find a place to relieve my hands, you go first. Then the smoke disappeared.
Master Merlin frowned and shrugged in explanation.
"He had introduced customers to Thorin before, and afterwards Sorin made things according to the customer's requirements, but Romero did not pay Sorin for the labor and materials according to the promised share ratio, which caused Sorin to be hostile to Romero, these dwarves have a good temper, so it is safer for Romero to avoid them. ”
Knowing the reason, Tang Ning smiled helplessly and followed Master Merlin into the tent.
In front of an anvil, a dark-skinned, stout man held a hammer and landed on the red-hot iron on the anvil, sparks flew everywhere, and not far away there was an iron furnace, and the heat in the iron furnace was rolling, making the tent hot.
Master Merlin stood three meters away and greeted him.
"Thorin, your skills are getting better and better. ”
Thorin stopped the hammer in his hand and wiped the sweat from his face and neck with the towel around his neck, which was no longer the color of his neck.
"There is no point in admiring the universally accepted facts. ”
Master Merlin looked embarrassed, shrugged his shoulders, and sat down in a chair made of iron on the side.
"This guy's temper is really weird. Downing thought to himself as he sat on the chair next to Merlin.
Master Merlin explains his intentions and introduces the young man to Thorin.
Thorin snorted disdainfully after glancing at the young man.
"Young people nowadays are like, and I don't like this kind of sissy. ”
Although the newly made skin is indeed a little too pretty, it is still far from the point of being a sissy, and Tang Ning frowned, not having any good feelings for the short man.
Next, Thorin picked up the iron water cup, scooped up a glass of water from the water tank next to him, and poured it violently, the water flowing down the corner of his mouth and onto his chest covered with chest hair.
"Romero introduced you here?"
Merlin was stunned for a moment, then immediately vehemently denied it.
"No, it's my customer, I brought him here, and it has nothing to do with Romero. ”
Thorin's thick eyebrows furrowed immediately.
"Merlin, you can't lie, I can tell from the look on your face that you're lying, and I've heard Romero's voice in the tent just now. ”
Master Merlin looked embarrassed and vomited for a long time, not knowing how to resolve the embarrassment caused by lying.
"Take him away, Romero brings guests I won't receive, no matter how much money is paid. ”
Thorin was resolute and non-negotiable.
Master Merlin looked back at the young man, shrugged, shook his head, and got up to leave.
Tang Ning got up and took out the rusty iron lump from his arms, looking relaxed.
"It seems that Thorin's skills are not as good as you described, he must have no way to fix the thing in my hand, I can understand, several blacksmiths have said so. ”
After that, I was going to get out of the tent.
"Wait. ”
Thorin was dissatisfied, and walked up to stop the young man, looking not very friendly.
"What did you say? sissy ......"
Downing shrugged his shoulders and repeated the sentence he had just said.
Thorin snatched the iron lump from the young man's hand and turned to walk back.
The Agitation Method worked!
Downing turned around and reminded loudly.
"I didn't promise to pay you anything, and I didn't intend to ask you to restore it for me. ”
Thorin tossed the rust-stained lump on the table, and responded in annoyance.
"I'm not going to take your pay, sissy, and I'm going to shut up everyone who doubts my skills. ”
Downing then sat down on a chair in the tent, and Master Merlin, who had planned to leave, turned around and gave the young man a thumbs up.
Thorin used a chisel and hammer to simply clear the large pieces of rust on the surface, leaving Beretta 92F exposed.
Looking at the strange shape, Thorin looked puzzled.
"What is this?"
"Weapons, a weapon with a sophisticated design. Downing replied.
Thorin brought in a screwdriver and a series of gadgets to dismantle the rust-stained firearm, exclaiming with each disassembly.
"Sophisticated construction, the person who made this thing must have been a genius in mechanical construction. ”
Downing's belly.
"Silly hat, this is just a small meaning for the technological level of the human world in the future. ”
After disassembling all the parts, Thorin took some liquid out of the cabinet and poured it into the sink on the table, then soaked the disassembled parts inside.
Downing, of course, knew that taking a weakly acidic solution, such as dilute hydrochloric acid, could remove rust.
After about an hour, the parts are removed from the inside, wiped with a brush, then the surface is burned with a flame, and finally the surface is sanded with a kind of rough paper.
It took a lot of time for the delicate and tiny parts, and after a full three hours, Thorin moved his fingers and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The surface of the firearm, which had been painted black, has become brighter and mirror-like.
Next is assembly, and Thorin sits at his desk, bringing an eyepiece for viewing tiny objects, and works patiently.
"This guy is really strong. ”
Tang Ning looked at the gradually assembled firearm, admiring in his heart, just by disassembling it, he could remember how each part was assembled.
Until the final derusted bullet was loaded into the magazine, and finally the magazine was put into the magazine, Beretta 92F was successfully repaired, Thorin held it in his hand and observed it, and then took the gun and put it in front of the young man, looking proud.
Downing took the gun, opened the safe, and loaded it, and everything was as good as new.
However, it still seems that there is still a little problem, and the firearm is handed back again.
"It's shiny, only sissies use it, and there's a way to make the surface a different color. ”
Thorin scratched his head, snatched the gun back again, took out another liquid from the cabinet, soaked the gun in the liquid, and walked over to sit down, wiping the sweat.
"The dyeing takes two hours, and we can talk. ”
After a pause, he immediately asked.
"The mechanical manufacturing level of this thing is exquisite, and this metal has never been seen before, from smelting, to parts forging, it can be seen that the smelting and forging level of its maker is extremely high, who is he?"
You can't tell the other party that it's from the future, and Tang Ning responds casually.
"Mastello Baltromeo Beretta. ”
