"Thank you Camille, I will be careful." Abel nodded.
"This is it. Carlos and I both bought our carving knives here." Camille led Abel to a shop.
This shop is filled with all kinds of swords and shields. From Abel's point of view, they are all pretty good swords and shields. They are all forged from hundreds of rough blanks. They are still standing in front of the shelf behind the counter. Two pairs of full body armor.
"This is not a wizard's item trade, how come there are these weapons and equipment?" Abel asked softly.
"Little brother, how can a wizard apprentice have the ability to protect himself? Of course he has to bribe some warriors or knights to protect himself. The weapons and equipment I have here are the best. Giving rewards to the guards can definitely earn their loyalty." A rough voice came. It turned out to be the owner of the shop, a 2-meter-2 tall man with a beard, who heard Abel's words.
"Donne, this is my junior brother Abel, who is here to buy a carving knife." Camille said hello to the bearded Donne.
"Abel? What's your name?" Donne heard Camille's words and looked at Abel in disbelief and asked.
"My name is Abel Harry!" Abel bowed slightly.
"My respected master, Senior Blacksmith Dorn salutes you!" Dorn bowed and saluted deeply.
"Donne, you are too polite!" Abel said after returning the salute.
"It's an honor for you to come here!" Donne said excitedly.
"Wait, Dorn, you called Abel master?" Camille asked a little strangely.
"Camille, don't you know that Master Abel is a master blacksmith? He is the 36th master blacksmith in the continent and the youngest master blacksmith. It is said that he is the master blacksmith closest to the master blacksmith!" Dorn's His tone was full of admiration for Abel.
"Abel?" Camille looked at Abel dumbfounded. He didn't know what to say for a moment. After a moment, Camille came back to his senses and asked: "Abel, why have you never listened to you?" Did you say you were a master blacksmith?"
"But no one has ever asked me?" Abel said, looking at Camille innocently.
"Shouldn't you be the first to say this kind of thing?" Camille looked at Abel feebly. Abel could not say such important information as if it didn't matter.
"I went to the Magic Tower to study and became a wizard. What does this have to do with my other identities? The teacher said that the status of ordinary people has nothing to do with wizards. As long as he becomes a member of the wizards, then he There is only one identity, wizard."
"Don't you really know what it means to be a master blacksmith?" Camille finally understood that Abel didn't seem to know enough about the importance of a master blacksmith.
Camille continued: "In addition to forging powerful weapons and equipment, the master blacksmith can also work with wizards to create powerful wizard artifacts, such as a staff that enhances fire attacks. It cannot be made without the help of the master blacksmith. from."
Seeing Abel's confused look, Camille waved her hand and said, "Forget it, you have just become a trainee wizard. The teacher will teach you the relevant knowledge in the future."
Abel really didn’t know how to make a staff at all. He had only been exposed to some knights before, and most of the equipment he made was knight equipment. Master Bentham once mentioned before that Abel can go to the dwarves to learn in the future. , to improve his blacksmith ability, but at that time, Abel only wanted to become a wizard in the future, and did not pay much attention to the study of the blacksmith master.
Now it seems that the connection between the master blacksmith and the wizard is not as unrelated as he imagined before, but has a particularly close relationship. If you have the opportunity in the future, you should ask your teacher, Wizard Moulton.
"Master Abel, do you need a carving knife?" Donne's eyes never left Abel, and Abel saw in his eyes the same look that a familiar fan had when he saw a star in his previous life.
"Yes, Lord Dorn, I need a carving knife to learn how to make rune cards." Abel said with a smile.
"Wait a minute." Dorn bowed and saluted. His huge body of 2 meters 2 saluted Abel, who was about 1.85 meters tall, which always made people feel a sense of joy.
Donn turned around and rummaged in the box behind the counter. After a while, he carefully took out a dark gold carving knife, handed it to Abel with both hands and said, "This is a piece of ore I accidentally received here. Since the ore was too small to make weapons, I made this carving knife. After I made it successfully, I found that the carving knife was extremely sharp. Please judge.”
Abel took the carving knife handed over by Dorn with both hands. He observed it carefully and found that the material of the carving knife should be an alloy. He weighed it twice in his hand and found that there should be something very heavy in it. Heavy metal, this kind of natural alloy, and it is made of natural proportions but can be so sharp. It is even rarer than some precious ores. It is almost a unique alloy.
"The material of this carving knife is synthesized from a variety of metals. According to you, it is a natural ore, so it is born naturally. This kind of material can be called a treasure of heaven and earth." Ya Bo said with some consideration.
"Master Abel, you have really good eyesight. I have seen this carving knife with many blacksmiths and wizards. Although no blacksmith master has seen it, there are several wizards who have the same opinion as you, but they have the same opinion about this carving knife." I am not interested in synthetic metal, because this metal is just sharper than ordinary metal, but it does not increase the ability to conduct magic power. In the eyes of several wizards, it is no different from ordinary metal." Dorn admired it. He looked at Abel and said.
Abel smiled sheepishly. Alloy materials could be seen almost everywhere in his previous life. Even primary school students can understand the concept of alloy. However, this carving knife has great research and practical value in Abel's hands. He is not one of those wizards who only think about magic power transmission. If the alloy of this proportion can be decomposed into proportions, it may greatly improve the level of the weapon.
Judging from the data of the Horadric cubes on weapons in this world, the attack power of weapons in this world is generally very low, so low that it is almost impossible to cause damage to people who use rune cards to offset physical damage. This weapon Abel estimates that In Rogge's camp, we can only deal with some low-level monsters, and it is doubtful whether high-level monsters can break through the defense. Now we can find an alloy that can increase the attack power of weapons. This is good news, at least it can help him. It provides a direction for future experiments to improve the attack power of weapons.
"How much gold does this carving knife cost?" Abel asked Dorn, looking at the carving knife in his hand with interest.
"Master Abel, since you like it, I gave it to you. I didn't spend many gold coins to get that piece of ore, and my forging skills are even worse than yours. You must not talk to me about gold coins." En said while waving his hands.
"This?" Abel was a little hesitant. He really wanted the carving knife, but he was not willing to take advantage of Dorn in this way.
"Abel, just accept it. I've known Dorn for many years. He's a real person. He said he was giving it to you. If you don't want it, he will just throw it on the ground and won't put it away again." Seeing Abel's hesitation, Mir couldn't help but intervene.
"Okay, Lord Dorn, I'll accept it. If you have a chance, if you have any questions about forging, you can ask me. Of course, I haven't been learning forging for a long time, and I may not be able to answer some questions, but I I will try my best to help you," Abel said cautiously.
"Thank you, Master Abel." Dorn couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Abel's promise. This was a promise from a master blacksmith. Although he was already a senior blacksmith, because he had no inheritance, he had no goals in the future. Now, it is really a great thing to have the guidance of a master blacksmith.
On the way back, Camille's numerous questions gave Abel a headache.
"Abel, how much gold coins does a weapon from the master blacksmith cost?"
