In Lisbeth's weapon shop, in addition to the storefront, there is also a studio dedicated to forging weapons.
In the past, if a customer came to entrust the forging of weapons, they usually placed the order first, and then notified others to pick up the goods after Liz's forging was completed. Players were never allowed to enter this studio.
However, Asuna is not among them.
Asuna was not allowed to enter the studio. According to Liz, she often broke in by herself, which scared her so much that she almost swung her hammer while she was working.
But this time, with Liz's special permission, Luo Zhen entered the studio with Asuna.
"alright."
Liz switched the mode to blacksmith and looked at Luo Zhen.
"What kind of weapon do you want to make?"
Although the performance parameters and names of weapons after forging are randomly generated, players can at least choose the type of weapon they want to forge, as well as some other detailed requirements, otherwise it would be too unreasonable to be completely random. .
Although Luo Zhen has never commissioned players to forge weapons, he has never eaten pork, and at least he has seen pigs running away. Luo Zhen has seen the process of making weapons many times with NPCs.
Therefore, Luo Zhen also made his request very easily.
"The type is a one-handed straight sword, and the emphasis is on the str (strength) system. It is best to have high durability and not affect the attack speed."
This level of request can still be made.
As long as the materials are controlled within the required range, even if the final performance is unknown, the type and type of weapon can be controlled.
For example, as Luo Zhen requested, if you want the forged weapons to be biased towards STR (strength), then you only need to provide the materials used to forge strength weapons.
The same goes for other aspects. If you want to focus on speed, use speed-type metals as forging materials. If you want to increase the durability, you can also add related materials. As long as you are willing to spend the money, the performance of the final weapon will never be low.
in addition…
"If possible, I hope you can forge the strongest sword yet."
Luo Zhen looked directly at Liz and made such a request.
"A sword that will never lose to anyone."
Such a request stunned Asuna on the side.
"A sword that will never lose to anyone?"
Even Liz was startled for a moment, then looked at Luo Zhen.
"That's quite a tone." Liz said provocatively, "Since it's come to this level, you should be prepared, right?"
What to prepare
Naturally, it is a material used for forging.
Want a sword that won't lose to anyone
This should be what all players dream of, right
However, how can this be done easily
Even if the player's skill proficiency is high enough and the forging items used are excellent enough, the most important factor that determines the performance of the weapon is ultimately the material used for forging.
Therefore, if you want to get a sword that cannot be defeated by anyone, you have to come up with forging materials that no one can easily possess.
Does Luo Zhen have such material
The answer is yes.
"Zheng!"
As Luo Zhen operated the main menu, a piece of metal was pulled out from the item list, materialized in a burst of light, and fell into his hand.
"Is this qualified?"
Luo Zhen threw the metal to Liz.
Liz subconsciously put the metal into her arms.
It was only then that Liz could clearly see the complete picture of the metal that fell into her arms.
It was a piece of metal that was a brilliant deep blue all over, like crystal and gemstone, with bursts of incredible brilliance flowing inside, like a crystal of light.
"so beautiful… "
Seeing this piece of metal, Asuna was the first to express her gratitude, with a look of love in her usually cold eyes.
As for Liz, she noticed it with her eyesight as a blacksmith the moment she saw the piece of metal.
"This...isn't this an S-class ultra-rare metal...!?"
Liz held the piece of metal with trembling hands, and even her voice was distorted.
S-class.
This is the word used to describe the rarest part of props in SAO.
Generally speaking, as long as it is an item that is called S-class, it means one thing.
This item is definitely one of the rarest items of its type.
Now, what Luo Zhen brought out was an S-level ultra-rare metal.
Needless to say, among all the metal props that have been confirmed to exist so far, there may be ones that are at the same level as it, but there is no one that can surpass it.
That's why Liz was so excited.
Even Asuna looked at Luo Zhen in shock.
"You actually have S-class metal?"
Even Asuna, who is the deputy leader of the Blood Alliance Knights, is so surprised. One can imagine how precious an item that can be given an S-class title is.
Luo Zhen can even admit that this piece of metal is definitely the only S-level metal in the current SAO.
The reason is simple.
"This is a reward dropped by the defending boss on the 55th floor. This is the only reward in the entire server."
This is how Luo Zhen explained the origin of this ultra-rare metal.
The theme of level 55 is ice and snow.
For this reason, there are large snowfields and snow-capped mountains in the wild at that level.
However, as the main street on the 55th floor, a steel city like Grantham is also called the Iron City, and the entire floor is full of things related to iron, steel, and metals, allowing for the production of smelting and gold carving. Many players are active on this floor.
In view of this, the maze area on the 55th floor is also inseparable from steel, making the monsters in it all equipped with heavy metal armor and thick steel weapons, which are very difficult to deal with.
As the strongest monster on the 55th floor, the defending boss of this floor is a steel giant. Although it is slow, its defense is ridiculously high, and its HP gauge has six full bars. It cost the strategy team a lot at the beginning. It took a lot of effort to finally get it.
At that time, Luo Zhen won the reward of the steel giant.
As a result, this piece of S-class ultra-rare metal was released.
Now, Luo Zhen took out this piece of metal, which was probably only one piece in the entire server.
"And these, just add them in."
Luo Zhen opened the item bar and materialized one piece of material after another.
“Bang bang bang”
The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground suddenly sounded in the studio of Lisbeth's weapon shop.
Seeing the pieces of materials falling to the ground one after another, not to mention Liz, even Asuna gradually became sluggish.
Just because all Luo Zhen is taking out are extremely rare materials, even if they are not as high as S-level metals, they are not something that can be obtained casually.
Asuna can guarantee that as one of the top players in the strategy group, it would be a bit reluctant for her to take out all the materials, even one third.
But now, Luo Zhen unceremoniously took out all these rare materials.
"Okay, that's all."
When a hill was almost piled up on the ground, Luo Zhen stopped with satisfaction and looked at the two girls.
As a result, what Luo Zhen saw was the pretty faces of two dull girls, which made him blink and speak like this.
"What's wrong? Isn't it enough? If it's not enough, how about I add more?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Liz, but also Asuna shouted.
"That's enough, that's enough! Don't take any more!"
"Where on earth did you find so many rare materials!? Isn't that too foul!?"
Asuna and Liz shouted at the same time, making Luo Zhen burst into laughter.
