Master Bentham walked up to Abel, picked up a 30-pound hammer from the tool table, threw the rough piece into the furnace, and said to Abel while looking at the furnace: "You are the most powerful person I have ever seen." Gifted child, I will only do this once, it’s up to you how much you can learn.”
Taking out the red-hot billet from the furnace, Master Bentham placed the billet on the anvil, raised the hammer high, and after carefully observing the billet, he dropped it heavily, each blow being very slow. But each blow was very heavy, and the force of the blow made the huge workbench vibrate.
"After the rough work has been tempered to 80 degrees, it is already very hard. Forcibly hitting it will not only fail to achieve the forging effect, but will also damage the internal structure of the rough work. Therefore, after the 80 work day, the sledgehammer is replaced, and every blow must be hit on the base. You have to look carefully at the structural lines of the rough work. You are very powerful. As long as you master this skill carefully enough, there will be no problem." Master Bentham guided Abel while beating the rough work.
Abel's purple eyes stared closely at the rough work. At the impact point of the master's hammer, he could vaguely see some subtle stripes. It was difficult to spot on the dark red rough work, but the master was every Each strike hits the texture exactly, and each strike causes the rough blank to change its shape, and the next texture has to be found again.
Master Bentham threw the 81-pound rough blank into the furnace, handed the 30-pound hammer to Abel, and said, "You try it."
Abel took the hammer and used iron tongs to take out the red-hot rough billet from the stove. He stared at the rough billet closely. Where are the stripes? Where are they? Thinking in his mind, Abel's attention became more and more concentrated, and everything around him seemed to disappear. The whole world was only the rough blank in front of him, and the rough blank became bigger and bigger in Abel's eyes. Every smallest imprint reflected in his mind, found, you are here.
The 30-pound hammer hit the rough slab hard. The loud sound did not affect Abel. The rough slab in front of him was deformed by the blow. Where are you? Haha, there you are, found you. Another hammer hit.
At this moment, Abel was like finding a novel toy. He found the stripes and hit it with a hammer, then found a new one and hit it again. The loud sound continued, no better than Master Bentham's just now. Slow.
Master Bentham was stunned at this time. The child in front of him had already made him jealous. Yes, a child who had just learned blacksmithing for a month made a master jealous.
"This is spiritual power." Master Bentham kept shouting in his heart. Of course he knew what this state was like. His teacher, the dwarf forging master Robin, was a forging master with spiritual power talent. That was a real forging master. Master is not like Master Bentham. Master Bentham is only respected as a master by people in nearby cities because he is proficient in forging various weapons and armors. Master Robin is a forging master recognized throughout the continent.
Master Bentham studied with Master Robin for ten years. He returned to his hometown because he lacked the mental power to learn more advanced forging techniques. The reason why Master Bentham was able to successfully forge a rough blank of more than 80 levels is because of the experience gained from the master's own continuous refining. Relying on this experience, the master can forge a rough piece of 100 levels.
At the beginning of Master Bentham's study, Master Robin used his mental power to find structural lines, so Master Bentham could tell Abel's state at a glance.
Master Bentham did not disturb Abel's forging, but quietly turned around and left. When he left, he had already made up his mind that his disciple could help him complete his unfulfilled wish.
Abel, who was trapped in this strange state, did not notice the departure of Master Bentham, and the rough blanks in his hands were recycled more and more times as time went by.
82, 83, 84… 98, 99, 100.
When the 100-meter exercise was completed, Abel woke up from his previous state. He felt exhausted all over his body, especially a lack of energy. It was as if his head had been hollowed out, his head was a little dizzy, and he felt like vomiting.
The 30-pound hammer slipped from his hand and fell on the workbench with a loud noise. Looking at his shaking right hand, Abel thought about what had just happened. He seemed to have entered a strange state. In that state, I seemed to be operating instinctively, but the burden on my body must have been too great.
After feeling his body to see what was going on, Abel found that there was a lot of Qi accumulated around the Qi veins in his body. The amount of Qi was terrifying.
Without thinking too much, and regardless of how dirty the ground was, he sat down on the ground and performed the Knight Breathing Technique. The accumulated Qi next to the Qi veins quickly gathered and concentrated towards the fifth Qi vein.
"What's going on?" Garden found Abel sitting on the ground, ran over quickly, and was about to step forward to help Abel up.
"Don't touch him." Master Bentham appeared next to Abel, stopped Garden, stared at him and said, "Everything he does is rough."
The master looked around at the other apprentices who were about to come over after hearing the sound, and waved them all away.
"Go and notify Knight Marshall and ask him to come here." Master Bentham turned around and said to Garden.
"Yes, master." Garden strode out of the blacksmith shop.
"This unlucky Marshall, his adopted son has been upgraded again." Master Bentham muttered to himself. Since he accepted this disciple, he has received more and more shocks. .
This time, Abel's promotion to the fifth-level trainee knight was very smooth. Almost all his energy automatically gathered in the fifth channel as if he heard the command. Therefore, it only took half an hour for him to successfully become a fifth-level trainee knight.
Regarding this upgrade to a fifth-level trainee knight, Abel didn't quite understand. He had just been upgraded two levels in a row to a fourth-level trainee knight. Why was he upgraded again after only a month? This time he didn't take any medicine. , full of doubts in his heart, he stood up and saw Master Bentham standing aside. Others in the blacksmith shop were standing far away. It was obvious that Master Bentham was protecting him, and he couldn't help but feel Full of gratitude to the master.
With a "boom", the door was kicked open, and a figure rushed in, shouting as he ran: "What's wrong with Abel?"
This is Knight Marshall. At this moment, half of his long golden hair is wet with sweat and stuck to his face, and part of it is messy and draped behind his head because of the wind. He has completely lost his usual chic style.
Seeing Abel standing there as if nothing was wrong, and looking like nothing was wrong, Knight Marshall cursed loudly: "How dare that kid from Garden lie to me, let's see if I don't teach him a lesson later!"
"Who wants to teach my disciple a lesson?" Master Bentham looked unhappy, gritting his teeth and looking at the guy in front of him who was still cursing despite his bad luck.
"Uncle Marshall, I accidentally upgraded again." Abel said softly.
"What is the upgrade? Let me explain it to Bentham first and then talk about it later." Knight Marshall turned his head to Master Bentham and was about to have a good argument, but suddenly he stopped.
"Wait, you said you've been upgraded again?" Knight Marshall looked Abel up and down in disbelief, and pushed Abel towards him with one hand. Abel's body instinctively flashed the aura of a fifth-level trainee knight.
"It doesn't make sense. How can you say it's an upgrade? What were you doing at the time?" Knight Marshall asked Abel.
Abel also thought about it hesitantly and said firmly: "I'm not doing anything, I'm just hammering the rough material."
"Didn't you eat anything?"
"I just had breakfast. I ate it with you. I didn't eat lunch because I was hammering the rough material." Abel also wanted to know the reason, so now he answered all questions.
"How is it possible? If blacksmithing can upgrade the knight level, I will come to blacksmith tomorrow." After finishing speaking, Knight Marshall pointed at Master Bentham and said: "If blacksmithing can upgrade him, this guy would have been a great warrior long ago."
Master Bentham puffed his beard and glared and said sarcastically: "As long as you can enter the state of enlightenment by blacksmithing, of course you can upgrade. How about you give it a try."
"Abel, if you find another piece of rough material, continue to forge, and then enter enlightenment, then you will be the youngest knight in the principality." As soon as Knight Marshall finished speaking, not only Master Bentham rolled his eyes , even Abel couldn't help but cover his head.
