Under Chamberson's guidance, Yi Chen came to the middle level of the street area, a street called Metalwork Street, which was mainly used for selling and forging weapons.
A large number of blacksmith shops of different shapes are set up here.
Huge metal chimney
The sweltering environment is 10 degrees higher than other neighborhoods.
The sound of iron hammering and shouting never stopped.
In such an environment, there are a large number of gentlemen who are accustomed to shopping here, looking for more suitable materials or weapons and equipment.
Many gun users like Edmund need to go to modern blacksmith shops to customize special-effect bullets.
While walking on the street, Yi Chen found that Professor Chamberson was also looking around, and for a moment he couldn't decide which blacksmith shop to choose.
"Professor, is this your first time here too?"
"I guess so. I came here with my teammates when I was young, but I seldom come here later... After all, I don't need weapons. A magic gentleman like me uses more "magic medium".
For example, magic gloves made of special leather.
Jewelry made from diseased crystals with magical properties, such as rings and necklaces.
Or, in a more advanced way, you can use a large amount of skins and secret texts to create magic books, etc."
"I see. Can I use this kind of thing?"
“Of course you can… Making one or a pair of basic spellcasting gloves can effectively improve your control over plants.
If you don't plan to use the Gentleman's Leather to upgrade your clothing, you can make gloves first.
It’s your choice.”
"Let's deal with the weapons issue first."
"Hmm~ This store looks pretty good... It's a two-story building that sells materials and forges weapons. Let's go in and take a look. We'll try to get everything done in one go."
Vulkan's Forge
A fiery red sign emitting heat hung on the door.
As soon as you enter the door, you can see a group of sturdy young men wearing black leather aprons, with sweat oozing from their bronze muscles, hammering hot iron.
After briefly explaining their purpose to the receptionist, the two were invited to the second floor.
We were personally received by an experienced blacksmith.
Unlike the apprentice who was hammering iron downstairs, this old blacksmith just liked to stay in the quiet room on the second floor to read books and grow flowers.
When he learned that only Yi Chen, the new gentleman, wanted to forge weapons, he was a little disappointed.
“There’s no need to ask me for the forging of new gentlemen. My apprentices here can take on this job.
If there is a significant discrepancy with expectations, or if there is a forging error that damages the material, we will double the compensation.”
"Can your apprentices here control this thing?"
At Chamberson's suggestion,
Yi Chen handed over the sealed small box containing the tumor-like crystals of the Moonlight Rat - Jasmin Li.
The old blacksmith took the box with his calloused hands, squinted his eyes and slowly opened it.
A ray of bright moonlight instantly penetrated into his eyes, and even slowly opened his squinting eyes, with a crescent moon shining through his pupils.
Between the seemingly beautiful crescents, there is actually a fleshy embryo.
It's not disgusting.
On the contrary, the moon, which should have been dead, was given a touch of life.
“This is good stuff!
Professor Chamberson actually gave such a high-quality crystal to a new gentleman? Weapons made of this material are difficult for a newcomer to control. "
"This is a crystal made from the relatively intact corpse of a patient he killed himself. It has nothing to do with me. I just brought him here to forge weapons."
"Is this the product of a seriously ill patient? And judging from its appearance, it's a pretty tough guy to deal with.
No wonder Professor Chamberson has time to bring in a newcomer. He is a rare talent... All right! I, Bengus, will take on this job.
Please fill out this forging intention form carefully."
Yi Chen had basically thought about what he wanted along the way and quickly completed the form.
Bengus the blacksmith looked at the wish list and read it easily:
“Hand axe, slightly heavier, of any material, of any length… I hope it can be adapted to various situations and battles with different types of enemies.
The conditions given are very loose, but are you really sure you want to use an axe
With your body shape, a sword, a long knife, or a spear might be a better choice."
"I'm used to using axes, but I'm not used to swords and the like."
"Okay.
But if you want to deal with various situations, you need to have the characteristics of both a short hand axe and a long-handled axe. Our store happens to have such a technology that can be compatible with both characteristics.
Here’s a sample of the technology you can try.”
The old blacksmith took out an iron rod that was exactly one meter long and handed it to Yi Chen.
It looks like an ordinary iron rod, but it is unexpectedly heavy in the palm of your hand.
“This length is suitable for close-range, confined-space combat… If you want to fight at long distances, or attack over a larger area, you need to increase the length of the weapon.
You should have felt the metal buckle on the iron rod, right
Press with your thumb.
Then do a short acceleration pullback.”
"good."
Yi Chen followed the blacksmith's instructions.
Press the inconspicuous buckle with a little force, then pull the iron rod backwards.
Clang! Sparks fly
During the short-distance (
