Abe the Wizard

Chapter 62: Forging rough blanks

Views:

Just do it, Abel once again used his mental power to wrap up the rough work that had been practiced for hundreds of times. Because he did not use normal means to practice it, under the influence of his mental power, he felt that he could still continue to forge 100 pounds of iron. The hammer was raised high and dropped heavily. The rough material was thrown into the furnace and taken out again, over and over again.

101 practice, 102 practice, 103 practice... 120 practice.

When it reached the 120th level, Abel found that this rough piece could no longer be refined by forging. This structure was closer and harder than the original 100th level rough piece. He called this rough piece directly the 120th level rough piece. .

From the rough blank to the shape of the shield, it was just a matter of slowly hammering it. Abel made a typical knight's shield and cut a groove on the inner surface of the shield to place the gems.

Abel chose the non-attribute mid-level rune. Drawing the runes is easy. Abel, who has already had several experience in transforming runes, did not modify the runes themselves this time, but only added the energy rune circuit. Connected to the groove, and there are four ready-made examples of energy rune circuits for reference, this time the rune drawing can be successful at the first time.

Putting diamonds into the grooves as an energy source, using mental guidance to activate the runes, the runes were successfully activated in a burst of white light. Although the function of this shield has not been tested, the production this time was very successful.

Putting the shield on the ground, Abel hit it directly with a hammer, first with 10% of the force, which is 200 pounds of force. When the hammer hit the shield, a burst of white light flashed on the surface of the shield, and the knock was like this was directly offset.

Abel used another 60% of his strength, which was already the power of an intermediate knight's fighting spirit. This attack was canceled out again after a white light flashed on the surface of the shield.

Seeing such a powerful shield, Abel felt excited. He couldn't help but use the hammer in his hand with all his strength. The force of up to 2,000 pounds hit the shield directly. He only heard a loud "bang" sound and the shield was embedded in it. On the ground paved with boulders, this attack was not completely mitigated.

Abel didn't know what level of knights could produce 2,000 pounds of force, but this shield was enough for the knights to use in battle. In addition, Abel also found that the shield made of 120-kilometer rough steel was also harder than imagined. , under this huge force, although most of the physical damage was offset, there was no trace at the contact point between the hammer and the shield, which shows how hard the shield is.

The power of magic weapons lies in the magic effect. This time the magic effect offsets the physical damage and matches the shield very well. As long as the energy in the diamond as the energy source is not completely consumed, then this magic effect will always exist. Although The shield cannot neutralize magic attacks, but apart from the magic effects attached to a few magic weapons he forged himself, Abel has not seen magic attacks in such a long time.

A magic shield to offset physical damage has been built, but it still looks ugly, with a bare shield surface and no leather lining.

However, Abel also had some doubts. During today's forging process, he forged a 120-level rough blank. This was somewhat different from what Master Bentham said. According to Bentham, the highest rough blank was 100-level. He decided to make this Bring the shield to Master Bentham to have a look, and also ask Master Bentham to identify the material of the black armor in the room.

Back in the room, Abel picked up the black armor and galloped towards the blacksmith shop on horseback.

"Is this your new work?" Master Bentham looked at the shield in Abel's hand and took it with some curiosity.

"This material?" Master Bentham noticed the difference in the material immediately. He looked up and asked Abel, "Is this made from ordinary iron ore?"

"Yes, I choose the best iron ore in the mine." Abel replied.

"It's impossible. Although the material is not as good as iron meteorite, it is definitely better than ordinary Bailian. What method did you use to forge it?" Master Bentham knew that it was not very good to ask other people's forging methods so directly. , even though the other person was his nominal disciple, his strong curiosity and love for the blacksmith profession made him blurt out this question.

"This is the material that was finally obtained during the 120th training." Abel told the truth. There was no need to hide it from Master Bentham unless there was a special secret about himself.

"120 training? How could it be 120 training?" Master Bentham deeply felt at this moment that everything he had learned was shattered. He did not doubt what Abel said. First, Abel had no need to talk to him. Lie, secondly, the material of the shield in front of me is indeed different.

"Let me forge it for you in person." Abel saw the change in Master Bentham's expression and directly made a forging request.

"Come, come to my operation room." Master Bentham grabbed Abel and pulled him into his operation room.

Master Bentham selected among a pile of iron ore for a while, found the best among them, put it on the operating table and said to Abel: "This is the best iron ore I have here. Can you use it?" ? No, I’ll go look for it in the mine.”

"That's it."

Abel stretched out his hand and threw the iron ore into the furnace. When Abel took off the 100-pound hammer from the side, Master Bentham's eyes froze. He used the 100-pound hammer to refine it. This had never happened before. I heard that some people can do this, because the 100-pound hammer at the blacksmith is only a tool used to flatten large curved iron, not for refining.

100 refining requires more than thousands of swings of the hammer. How many people can persist in forging such a heavy hammer

But when Master Bentham saw Abel clamping down the iron ore from the furnace and forging it, he discovered that Abel could use the 100-pound hammer much more easily than he could use the 30-pound hammer.

And listening to the knocking sound between the hammer and the rough billet, we can know that the power used by Abel is huge. Bentham knows Abel's power. Although the power is very strong, it has not reached this level. , which means that Abel's power has been greatly enhanced.

From practice 1 to practice 80, Master Bentham looked at Abel's forging and couldn't help but nodded. He taught Abel these, but now Abel's skills are no less than him, but when He saw that during the 81 training, Abel did not use his mental power, nor did he forge along the texture based on experience like him, but instead increased his strength and forcibly forged.

At this moment, Master Bentham felt as if he was not watching a man forging a rough blank, but watching a giant distant stone beast hammering the ground. With every blow, Master Bentham felt the ground vibrate.

And the rough material that should not have been refined by violence continued to be refined under this kind of violence, and it was refined again and again.

It was not until the 100th level that Abel began to use his mental power. This was also the reason for his lack of experience. If he had enough experience, he could still practice without using his mental power.

As Abel's last hammer forging ended, the rough blank on the operating table had been refined 120 times. Master Bentham looked at the rough blank and couldn't make a sound for a long time.

"How strong is your strength?" Master Bentham finally thought of an important question. If this technique is used by others, it must first have strength. What kind of strength must be achieved to create such a 120-degree rough blank, so he asked Abel.

"About 2,000 pounds." Abel said softly, as if he was afraid that Master Bentham would be frightened.

"Two thousand pounds?" Master Bentham muttered silently in his mind: "Monster!"

"How much strength would you have if you didn't use fighting spirit?" Master Bentham suddenly thought that Abel was a knight and his strength was enhanced by fighting spirit.

"Two thousand pounds means without fighting spirit." Abel explained, but he did not dare to tell the number with the fighting spirit bonus. He was really afraid of scaring Master Bentham.

"Hey~" Master Bentham sighed and shook his head helplessly. How many knights, not to mention blacksmiths, can achieve this kind of power? It seems that there are probably only a few who can use this method to forge 120-degree rough blanks. There was only Abel.
