In the pitch-black night, accompanied by the sound of hammering iron, sparks flew.
The crimson stove kept burning, and Marvin was adding charcoal to it in disgrace.
"You put too much!"
"The higher the flame temperature, the better!"
Once Sheehan started working, her temper became very short-tempered.
Although this guy is a human being, his temper is very similar to that of a dwarf. When blacksmithing, his temper was foul and hard, and he also had to drink.
In this weird half-plane, Marvin, as his apprentice, was the only one he could command.
He can only suffer in silence!
Because this is his advanced task, as a poor blacksmith apprentice, follow Sean to learn blacksmithing skills for a year!
There have been changes in his task panel, the previous task has been completed, and 1500 general experience points have also been credited.
What is shown now is the second link task of the advanced stage, the reward is 2000 general experience points and the qualification to enter the next round.
I have to say, this task is really a torment!
For a whole year, Marvin could only follow Sean and help him with work.
Except for the necessary time for rest and meals, Marvin spent most of the rest of the time with the stove and the hammer!
The old blacksmith didn't frighten him.
The level of patience this task tests is simply outrageous!
Fortunately, Ma Wen is also a very ruthless man!
Now that you have taken on this task, you can't give up halfway!
It's not that he doesn't know, besides Night Walker, there are other ways for rangers to advance.
But he got into a fight with the old blacksmith!
This guy was cursing at Marvin all day, saying Marvin was weak like a bitch.
A real man should pick up a hammer and forge his own weapons!
Ma Wen didn't express any opinion on this, but he did it silently!
My physique is indeed too weak.
Strength is also lacking.
Forging iron can indeed have a certain degree of exercise effect.
Time passed day by day, and in the first month, Marvin was still able to follow the iron with patience.
In the third month, he began to become extremely irritable. When the old blacksmith scolded him, he began to speak back, and made all kinds of fancy swear words, which sometimes made Sean speechless.
After half a year, he was completely numb. The daily service is like repeating the work assigned by the old blacksmith!
He didn't even look at what those jobs were!
In his eyes, all kinds of ores are similar anyway, and all kinds of wrought iron techniques are not far behind.
He was a lord, and he probably wouldn't touch anything in the blacksmith's shop in his life if he left this ghostly place.
But even so, after years of training, Marvin not only obtained a life profession - [Blacksmith], but also experienced a rapid increase in experience.
He didn't allocate any experience to this profession, but when this horrible year was coming to an end, Marvin still promoted the blacksmith profession to [Intermediate]!
If Ma Wen remembered correctly, the most powerful blacksmith in the entire White River Valley was at the intermediate level!
"This is ridiculous. I actually became an intermediate blacksmith."
"The lord of the blacksmith... there is not much in the whole of Feinan!"
He secretly complained in his heart.
The bang, bang, bang sound kept ringing in Marvin's ears, and he even felt a little nervous!
In the last month, Sean did not teach Marvin any other blacksmithing skills. Instead, he began to work hard to build a weapon.
Marvin was by the side, so he could only fight.
He has only one thought now, and that is to hurry up and pass this damned apprenticeship!
He hadn't been in Feinan for a long time, but he didn't expect to spend a full year in the demiplane of the Night King!
If it wasn't for the different flow rates of time, Marvin wouldn't have done such inefficient things.
And it's boring.
"Boy! Don't look around. There's nothing to see here."
"Throw that piece of lava over here!"
"And that scroll, yes, it's on the shelf behind you!"
Faced with Sean's gesticulation, Marvin has become numb and will only execute silently.
Time passed day by day, and the weapon Sean forged seemed to be gradually taking shape.
But later, he simply put Marvin aside and let him go to another edge of the stove to practice blacksmithing skills.
Marvin had to follow suit.
"What is this old guy doing mysteriously?"
Marvin was thinking idly while forging the roughest ore.
…
Time passed in this boring exercise.
On the last day, Sean called Marvin over by the fire.
On the weapon platform, there is a looming thing.
But it was covered with a cloth.
Sean said wearily, "Boy, congratulations, your apprenticeship is over."
"You managed to hold on for a year, and today's teenagers don't have your kindness."
Nonsense... Ma Wen complained secretly in his heart, he was not the kind of young man who had a jumpy heart. Of course he knew that although the test given by Sean was boring, it was beneficial and harmless to him!
In the process of blacksmithing for a full year, Marvin turned from 14 to 15 years old, looking a little more mature.
Most importantly, his biceps and pectoralis major bulged a lot! He also seems to have grown a bit taller.
The data is the most intuitive. During this year's exercise, his strength has increased by 1 point, and his physique has increased by 2 points!
After a year of training, he actually got 3 attribute points!
Marvin is not a fool. The blacksmithing skills that Sean taught him are definitely not ordinary forging skills.
It must include some secret methods for exercising physique and strength, and only in this way can it have such a powerful effect.
3 attribute points, if you use upgrades to count, you need to upgrade to six levels to get this effect!
Although everything cannot be converted so simply, completing Sean's test is a small improvement in strength for Marvin!
At least his physique has improved a lot, and he won't be so brittle anymore!
As for the 2000 points of general experience, it came at just the right time. He is now facing advancement, which is the time when he is most inexperienced.
Generally speaking, there are three steps in an advanced task. I have already completed two of them, and after the third is completed, I can advance to the next level.
At that time, you will have to consume a lot of experience to activate all the abilities of the advanced class!
Marvin didn't want the embarrassing scene where he had completed the advanced task but didn't have the experience to pay for the advanced task.
…
"Patience is an essential quality for a night traveler."
"As a reward for your patience, this thing is given to you. Regardless of whether you can finally get the approval of the King of the Night to become a Night Walker, this is a gift from me."
Sean pointed to the thing on the weapon table and said.
Marvin froze.
He didn't expect that the thing Sean spent a whole year building was actually for himself!
Although I have been helping him all the time, I also know how many precious materials and energy Sean spent to create this item!
"Don't be dazed, kid." Sean snorted, "This is probably the last magic item I'll create in my life."
Magic items!
Marvin's eyes widened!
He couldn't wait to lift off that layer of blue cloth!
There is a machete lying quietly below!
The color of the scimitar is red, the blade is extremely sharp, but the handle is very warm to hold.
"Is this the effect of the lava stone?"
Marvin held the scimitar in his hand, feeling the power of the scimitar quietly.
"Its name is [Crafting Fire of Rage]." Sean looked at his work, showing a hint of satisfaction: "I dare say that even the items created by those dwarf masters are nothing more than that."
Marvin nodded, and after a simple reconnaissance technique, the attributes of this scimitar were fully revealed:
[A blaze of rage]:
Quality: magic
Attack: 13-18
Effect 1: Armor Break +7
Effect 2: Fragmentation +7
Accompanying spell - [Rage Liaoyuan] (once a day)
Accompanying spell - [Arcane Missile] (three times a day)
…
Magic weapon!
The first magic item that Marvin acquired since time travel.
And it's a very sharp machete!
At this moment, his mood can no longer be described with excitement.
"I..." He just wanted to thank Sean for his gift, but the old man sternly said, "Get the things and go!"
"Opening the demiplane of the Night King consumes a lot of energy!"
At that moment, he pulled Marvin and quickly left [Eternal Night Paradise].
The two reappeared in the basement, and then walked to the blacksmith shop.
It was late at night, and everything was quiet. Nothing had changed, after all it had only been one day.
However, Marvin felt as if he was in another world.
"Let's go. Pull yourself up." Sean urged suddenly: "The final stage of the test is about to begin."
"You need to be baptized by the Night King!"
"We must enter Chiba Forest immediately, follow me!"
