And to be honest, it was hard for Colin to imagine that this thing could actually grow out of a living organism.
Hearing this, Barton nodded and said devoutly: "It is not difficult to melt the 'Thorns of Suffering' which is a common raw material. We only need to use some 'mysterious items' with corresponding abilities to melt it..."
"The corresponding 'mysterious item'?"
Colin asked subconsciously, and before the other party could answer, he got the answer.
[You recall that not long ago you used the original copy of the "Stigmata" to transform the "Thorns of Suffering" into a lower-level copy.]
Looking at this tip, Colin frowned. "The Bloodthirsty Stigma" and "The Source of Light" do have similar methods to process them into "lower-level copies"...
But the thing is...
This process is totally uncontrollable!
Both of these methods can indeed utilize the "Thorn of Suffering" to a certain extent, but both have a limitation.
That is, they can only process the "Thorns of Suffering" into copies.
Unless Colin completely masters the "Source of Light", in that case, he can directly melt the "Thorns of Suffering".
But I don’t know how long it will take to recover from the “withered” state, let alone fully master this word.
Moreover, even if he had mastered it completely, he couldn't just do nothing all day long and be busy refining these things, right
So now we can only wait and see if Patton can give some useful suggestions.
"Do you still remember the sculpture of the evil idol? When the Thorns of Suffering are heated to a certain temperature, its power can be used to catalyze the Thorns of Suffering."
Patton reverently told what he knew.
This method is now commonly used by all the survivors in the world.
At the same time, Colin also learned from Patton that the "Thorn of Suffering" was not only hard enough in itself, but was also the best spell carrier in the world.
However, the "Thorns of Suffering" processed by different evil idols mostly carry some unique attributes.
For example, their harpoons have more or less some characteristics adapted to the sea, and can occasionally trigger special effects such as storms, hurricanes, electric shocks, etc.
"Can this method be used to smelt the Thorns of Suffering in large quantities?"
Colin asked. What he wanted was a production method like an industrial assembly line, rather than just making a few small pieces at a time.
"No..." Barton shook his head. "No matter how fast it is, it can only melt a small part of the Thorns of Suffering at a time. Melting a few kilograms a day is already the limit..."
That's no use, Colin muttered in his heart.
If this thing were added to all artillery and even bombs, the performance of their existing thermal weapons would probably be improved to a small level.
But this production capacity is a bit worrying.
"Oh, by the way, do you know where to mine ore? Especially metal ore..."
One of the most scarce substances in Colin at present is a series of minerals including iron, copper, etc.
Compared to the "thorns of suffering" that will not be used for a while,
