Chapter 1148: Collision of Wisdom, Combined Forging

Having a new scientific research direction does not mean that the old power will be abandoned, especially when it is at the forefront of power.

Such is the case with Shanobah's Wyvern Legion.

For any country or force in Faerûn, this legion cannot be underestimated. If they flew by in groups, even the ancient dragons would have to turn around and leave. Some cities could only tremble in front of them. .

"It turns out that the master has not forgotten us, so I'm relieved." Shanoba said happily.

Since it was closely related to her own interests, she was even more motivated to work.

"Now the second problem is no longer a problem." Filancini was also completely aroused.

The big hand of the previous fog reappeared, fished out another handful of air glass solution, and once again demonstrated his miraculous magic manipulation ability on the spot.

A large number of arcane runes are inscribed directly into the solution.

Just like last time, with the inscription of arcane runes, the solution ball is also constantly changing, exuding increasingly stronger magical aura.

When the entire magic formula is inscribed, it is the moment when it stops changing and freezes.

The solution ball finally turned into an air glass ball, the size of a fist.

What was different from the last time was that this time the air glass ball did not bloom with magical aura. Instead, it was dusty and nothing special could be seen.

"Cast the summoning element." Filancini said to Gavin.

"Okay." Without saying a word, Gavin directly cast a secondary summoning element spell.

This spell is also called the Secondary Alien Oath.

It is a four-ring spell.

The function is to summon a creature from another world to fight for you.

There are many ways this spell can take effect. For example, if you sign a covenant with a creature from another world, you will summon a specific creature to come.

Gavin's previous blessing of undead killing to Shadow Wings falls within this category, allowing them to directionally summon killing undead.

When priests with faith cast this spell, most of them summon the corresponding heavenly creatures from their own god's kingdom.

Mages, on the other hand, prefer elemental creatures from the inner plane.

This kind of summoning is very random, and it depends on what kind of creature responds during the process.

It didn't take long for Gavin to clearly feel a warmth coming from him.

A ball of flames as tall as a person appeared out of thin air not far from him. It could barely be seen that it had a human shape, with a flaming head and incomplete flaming arms. The lower body was like a whirlwind, standing stupidly on the spot.

Medium fire elemental.

This is the activated element, a formless stream of life-principle.

It is difficult to see their form in the elemental plane of fire because they are one with the entire plane.

Only after being summoned to the material plane by magic can they show their current specific body shape.

As soon as this medium-sized fire element appeared, a powerful magical aura shot out from the air glass ball in Filancini's hand, shrouding it like a beam of light.

This medium-sized fire element immediately felt threatened, roared like a violent burning flame, and flew away from the air glass ball.

But the absorption force produced by the light emitted by the air glass ball is simply not something it can resist.

It only had time to make a gesture of resistance before it was sucked directly into the air glass ball.

When this medium-sized fire element was sucked into the air glass ball, it was originally transparent and turned fiery red. It bloomed with a gleaming magical aura and began to slowly and firmly absorb the surrounding fire elements.

If you observe carefully, you will find that in the fiery red air glass ball, the fire element is constantly rolling and flowing, as if it wants to break free from inside.

But the entire air glass ball is as solid as a rock, no matter how it hits it, it won't move at all.

"Successful?" Gavin asked.

Filancini threw the flame air glass ball to Gavin, "I have said before that as long as the material problem is solved, it is not difficult to restrain the elements.

However, the strength of this elemental ball must be related to the strength of the bound elements.

The stronger the elements bound inside, the more elements will be gathered per unit time, and vice versa.

Therefore, the size has yet to be verified experimentally. This elemental ball is used to restrain medium-sized flame elements, which is obviously a waste. It can at least restrain extremely large advanced elements. "

Stroking the fire element ball and feeling the stable magic fluctuations coming from it, Gavin couldn't help but said with joy: "This is enough. We have gained too much today. The only thing left is how to mass-produce and apply it. "

Filancini probably hasn't fully realized what this invention means to Faerûn.

What magical technological changes will be brought to the world, especially if it falls into Gavin's hands.

"Lord, can I see it?" Jihalin asked proactively.

"Okay." Gavin readily handed over the flame element ball.

Jiharin carefully took the flame element ball, as if he was afraid it would fall to the ground and break. He completely forgot that it was made of tempered glass, and its hardness was not inferior to steel.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Jihalin couldn't help but exclaimed while stroking the flame element ball, "With this, enchanting weapons and armor is easier than drinking water, as long as the quality of those weapons and armor is not too bad. , can be turned into magic equipment.”

At the end, the legendary blacksmith looked at Felanshini with shining eyes and said, "Can this flame elemental ball change its shape? For example, it can become a weapon handle, or a heart guard. If it doesn't work, a half sphere is also fine. If the volume can be compressed, it will be even better."

"Yes." The legendary arcanist said without thinking, "Whatever shape you want, I can shape it for you. Let's make a weapon handle."

Felanshini's misty hands moved quickly again, starting a new round of on-site customization.

Gavin also understood and cast another summoning spell.

But this time it was an eighth-level high-level alien oath binding. The summoned was no longer a medium-sized fire element, but a super-large elemental soldier that was two sizes larger, like a burning giant, standing there stupidly.

It was not until Felanshini's air glass weapon handle was completed that he reacted.

But it was too late. A huge suction force emerged and sucked it directly into the weapon handle.

The weapon handle also turned into a fiery red color. The energy fluctuations emitted by the weapon handle were incomparable to the flame elemental ball. Even from a distance, the heat from it could be clearly felt.

This time, Gavin did not touch it and threw it directly to Jiharin.

"Good, good, good." The legendary blacksmith was overjoyed and said, "Chief Yuliu, I'll borrow your forging room for you."

"Follow me." Although Chief Yuliu still had no expression on his face, he was also very excited from his fiery gaze at the handle of the flame weapon. He had already vaguely guessed what the other party wanted to do.

He threw away his short legs and ran forward, and soon led everyone into a forging room.

The style here is exactly the same as that of the Colossus Dungeon, that is, huge, and the posture is not prepared for dwarves at all, but for giants.

The roar was also endless.

There were rows of steam hammers, hammering rhythmically.

In front of each steam giant hammer, there stood a sweaty gray dwarf, holding a red-hot pressed steel blank in his hands with pliers, repeatedly forging and correcting it, and finally finalizing it.

I just watched the automatic integrated smelting, and now suddenly entered the factory where steam machinery and manpower are combined, giving people a serious sense of tearing, a sense of fantasy cyber.

This is certainly because, after the final stage, if you want to further mechanize, the technology required will be greatly improved.

It is also because the dwarves are proud of their forging technology, thinking that machines will never be able to replace their dwarven forging skills. Only in their hands can they dig out the full performance of these weapons and armors, and find ways to make up for the defects.

This view is not wrong.

Because there is magic in this world.

Forged on the assembly line, no matter how sophisticated it is, it is still a mortal product.

But it is different in the hands of these gray dwarf craftsmen. During the forging process, they really resonate with the weapons in their hands and tailor them to themselves.

From time to time, a magical aura will bloom from a certain workstation, indicating that the weapon or armor has broken through the boundaries and has been given some magical properties.

The probability of the birth of a magic weapon has a lot to do with the forging level of those gray dwarf craftsmen themselves.

Under the same materials and conditions, the higher the level of the craftsman, the greater the probability of forging a magic weapon, the stronger the magic property, and the magic properties are also different.

In the words of those blacksmiths, the condition of each weapon is different, and they must adapt to local conditions and act according to the actual situation.

If a certain formula is applied to these weapons, the possibility of success will be greatly reduced.

If you want to forge a magic weapon, you must first make this weapon come alive under your hammer.

It is not you who forge the weapon, but follow the weapon.

This kind of idealism is the enemy of mechanization and is difficult to replicate and mass produce.

Jiha Lin found an empty craftsman position with ease, and pulled the switch next to it with force. High-pressure steam immediately gushed out, and the motionless steam hammer was slowly driven, making a rhythmic hammering sound.

Jiha Lin picked up the iron tongs next to him, casually picked up a burnt red two-handed sword rough from the assembly line, and put it under the steam hammer to forge it.

In his hands, the two-handed sword rough seemed to come alive, and began to flip and jump rhythmically, allowing the steam hammer to bombard the position he wanted to bombard.

Originally a boring job, it became pleasing to the eye when it came to him.

If you observe carefully, you will find that Jiha Lin's seemingly random movement of the rough, in fact, there is a lot of knowledge in it.

The two-handed sword rough soon showed forging marks similar to fish scales, densely packed and layered, which can be said to be a collection of beauty and mystery.

"That's wrong! Why is there no magic aura?" Sanoba looked at the two-handed sword in the hands of the legendary blacksmith, which was as exquisite as a work of art, and then looked at the magic aura that occasionally bloomed around her, with a puzzled face.

According to the truth, the appearance of this two-handed sword forged by Jiharin is at least a small top-grade one.

In Faerun, appearance is justice.

The powerful are not necessarily beautiful, and the beautiful are definitely powerful.

Because magic is a mysterious art.

"Because this is a semi-finished product, it is not complete yet." An expert like the Gray Dwarf Chief naturally saw the doorway, took the handle of the flame weapon next to him in his hand, and pointed the end with the mouth at Jihalin.

Jihalin did not hesitate to put the end of the newly forged two-handed sword directly into the weapon handle, and it fit perfectly.

It was as if he had measured it with a precision instrument in advance. In fact, he was touching, looking, and feeling from beginning to end.

At his level, his own feeling is the best instrument.

Huh!

At the moment the two came into contact, hot flames gushed out from the two-handed sword.

Jihalin, who was the first to bear the brunt, was still hit by the scorching flames even if he moved sideways at the first time, and a large area of ​​his snow-white beard was immediately burnt.

Jihalin didn't care about his beloved beard at all, and looked up and down at this new weapon.

It has now merged into one, and the fiery red color spreads along the sword body, forming a series of mysterious and beautiful flame tattoos on it, just like the dragon scales of a red dragon, with dazzling magic aura all over the body.

"Advanced magic weapon, this is an advanced magic weapon!"

"This is combined forging, two components are combined together to become a piece of equipment."

"No, this is not as simple as a combined weapon. The handle can continuously supply energy. This magic weapon is more powerful than ordinary ones."

Many gray dwarves who were originally resting were attracted by the dazzling magic aura and couldn't help but gather together.

The stronger the magic aura, the more powerful this magic equipment is. This is a consensus.

"Chief Jiharin, give it to..." The chief of the gray dwarves turned the sword head and handed it to Jiharin.

The legendary blacksmith, with a smile on his face, did not take it at all, but pushed it directly to Gavin's direction and said, "Let the Lord take a look first. He was the one who made this weapon possible."

Gavin did not take it either, but pushed it to the legendary arcanist and said, "I dare not take credit for it. The handle came from the teacher, and the sword body was forged by the clan leader. I was just watching the fun from beginning to end."

Filanxini also did not take it, and responded with a smile, "Don't underestimate your role. If you didn't thread the needle in it, I would have the skills but no way to use them, let alone cooperate with a legendary dwarf blacksmith.

Just like this sword, the two are useless when separated. Only when they are combined can they become a powerful magic weapon. You are the power of the combination, and it is most appropriate for you to come first."

"Then I won't be polite to you." Gavin, who was itching to do it, no longer shirked his responsibility with them. He took the flaming longsword in his hand and danced with it.

The flaming longsword feels a little heavier, but the balance is impeccable.

It can be used with one hand or two hands. With a thought, the hot flames immediately burst out from the handle, directly wrapping the entire long sword, making the flaming sword worthy of its name.

As it dances, the flames on the flaming long sword are also released to a certain extent, directly increasing its length by half. The one and a half meter long sword has the effect of two meters and two meters, but the weight does not increase.

Judging from the condensation of the flames and the heat revealed on it, this is definitely not a decoration, but has real lethality. People around can't help but retreat to avoid the sharp edge of the flames.

Strength Enhancement (Special Ability): The holder's strength will be +4, which is an external blessing.

Blazing Flame (Special Ability): After activation, the weapon will be wrapped in a layer of flames that will not hurt the holder until it receives a command, and will cause 2D6+16 fire damage to the enemy.

Pyroblast (special ability): Fire damage will continue to accumulate in the enemy's body. When it reaches a certain level, it may cause a critical hit, which will cause an additional 3D10 fire damage. Once a person wearing metal armor is hit by three consecutive swords, regardless of whether it causes damage, the fourth sword will inevitably cause a pyroblast, causing fire burns to the enemy from the inside.

Flame Slash (special ability): You can overdraw the fire power of this weapon, swing an arc of flame, and launch a long-range attack on the surrounding enemies. You can overdraw up to five rounds, causing 10D6+16 fire damage. After overdrawing, you will not be able to use the special abilities of Blazing Flame and Pyroblast in the corresponding rounds.

"Good sword! Good sword! Good sword!" Gavin praised it endlessly. Even if he praised its feel, he also praised its power.

This weapon is a bit like the Red Flame Sword, but its properties are not comparable to the Red Flame Sword.

The Red Flame Sword can emit a column of fire every day to attack enemies within 10 meters along the way, causing 4D6 fire damage.

Once used to attack, the Red Flame Sword can only be used as a +1 magic sword and can no longer provide additional damage.

The magic effect of the flame sword in Gavin's hand can continue to take effect.

The key to this difference lies in the weapon handle.

The super-large elemental soldier imprisoned on the weapon handle is an automatic energy storage battery, which continuously absorbs fire elements to replenish itself and supply the flame sword.

The Red Flame Sword can only store magic energy by itself. The capacity is too small and the speed of absorbing energy is too slow. It can only be replenished once a day, and it will be exhausted once.

Even so, the price of a Red Flame Sword can be sold for at least 20,000 gold coins.

The price of the sword in Gavin's hand is tripled or five times, and it is not excessive to sell it for 100,000, because this is an absolute battlefield mowing artifact.

Even if a low-level warrior holds it, he can harvest lives wantonly, and even have the possibility of challenging opponents of higher levels.

While passing the flaming sword down, Gavin asked the two casters: "Can this manufacturing method be standardized? Can it be mass-produced?"

This is what he cares about most. The price of a flaming sword is limited, but what about countless flaming swords? What if each of his soldiers has one?

Just thinking about that scene makes people excited. (End of this chapter)
