Taking advantage of the reheating gap, Link carefully inspected the sword forged by Dante again. Compared with the sword made by Gonzalez, the blade is thinner, lighter, and the front is sharper. Greater than hacking.

I don't know what extra material was added to make the blade appear bright white like silver.

Could this be Mithril?

With a light press of the finger, a bloodstain immediately appeared on the skin that should have been protected by tree skin, and a sharp tingling pain followed.

"it hurts!"

"Idiot!" Noticing Link's actions, Dante laughed and said, "I used the spirit of an abyss monster on it, and if I get hurt by it, I will feel intense pain, and those with poor physique may even experience dizziness, tinnitus, vomiting and convulsions. symptom."

"Take a name."

Using natural healing to stop the pain, Link blurted out, "Bee sting."

Dante hummed twice, but did not refute.The essence is taken from the giant poisonous bee of the monster. Although it has no lethal toxicity, the pain will be impressive. It is a very apt name.

"It's almost heated up." He reminded Link that it can be forged again.

Putting down the newly named bee stinger, Link was about to pick up the red-hot metal with iron tongs when the Destiny Mob originally attached to the envelope suddenly broke away and floated over by itself.His strange behavior naturally caught Dante's attention. Seeing Link staring at a certain point in the sky, and then the furnace burst into dazzling light, Link subconsciously used his hands to block the strong light that prevented his eyes from looking directly, Dante But yelled at him.

"Remove distracting thoughts!"

"what?"

"Oh, you idiot, don't stand there stupidly, the Mojo of Destiny is merging with the metal, quickly determine its nature, only those who can see the Mojo can do it. Quick! If you miss the time, the Mojo of Destiny will be wasted Already!"

"The nature of the decision? How to decide?" Link was scrambled by Dante's yelling.

This is the first time I have encountered this state... No!Not the first time.Inheritance has already absorbed the magic essence twice, think about how it was done at that time?Thinking... yes, thinking!Does Dante mean that I use my mind and ideas to determine the properties of metals?

In terms of weapons, the enhancement attribute is usually chosen to be sharp... Wait, isn't there a saying that it is hard and easy to break?Rather than wanting the hardest attribute, it is better to want the strongest attribute, eh~ Is it correct to use an adjective like firm...

Link is very entangled in his heart at the moment. If he must determine the properties of metal, he hopes to have a weapon that will not break easily, rather than an indestructible weapon.Compared with data-based virtual games, real prgs have to be familiar with it for a while every time they change weapons. If possible, he really wants to use it until he can make his own treasures.

Dante stared at the boiling furnace, taking shape, he snatched the iron tongs from Link's hand, and took out the stabilized metal.

"Has the nature been settled?" Link didn't dare to look directly at such a dazzling glare like a dwarf. The result of sneaking a glance was that his eyes hurt. on the big iron pier.

Link rubbed his eyes to see that the metal fused with the Mojo of Destiny turned out to be red, and the strange red looked a bit like blood.Is it related to high temperature?Link is not sure, in the world with fantasy as the background, there are too many things that science cannot explain.

Dante shoved the forging hammer into Link's hand, urging him to forge in the heat.The first reaction when the hammer fell was that it was hard. Compared with black iron, the metal fused with the Mojo of Destiny was much harder.

"Don't stop! Work hard~ haven't you eaten yet? Use all your strength, speed up, and pay attention! Be even!" The dwarf kept urging, and Link's arm was numb after knocking down for a while Unable to lift it, he suddenly had a premonition that maybe all the spell slots would be used up and the forging would not be completed.

After a whole night of repeated tempering, under the guidance of Dante, he made a rough shape.Link, who no longer has any spell slots, was so tired that he was panting because the other main function was to stab. He deliberately made this handle for chopping, and strengthened the width and length of the blade. Hold it in both hands as a two-handed sword.

Probably seeing that Link could no longer continue, Dante, like Gonzalez, used soul forging to help Link complete the remaining processes and added a sword hilt.

Link took the finished long sword and waved it casually a few times. It was heavier than a bee stinger. I don't know if it was an illusion, but I always felt that this sword felt better.

"It's not an illusion." Dante explained: "It's the properties of the metal itself that are more compatible with you."

"It's the first time I've heard that metals can also play affinity. By the way, how did I see it was red when I first fused with the Mojo of Destiny?" After repeated forging, tempering and polishing, the strange bright red has disappeared. Becomes a deep black, in stark contrast to the bee sting.It was dull, pitch-black, and kind of indescribably weird.

"We dwarves call it the heart of the earth. It is the blood that flows from the depths of the earth. It is the toughest metal known so far." Obviously this sword is more strenuous than the previous bee sting, and Dante also has a lot of blood on his face. Sweat, this remark really surprised Link, who thought it was just a small change.The highest toughness... It's really amazing that his wish has been fulfilled.

"What the Destiny Mob brings is just an opportunity to change. You are the one who really turns ordinary black iron into the heart of the earth. As a child of nature, you have an extraordinary relationship with nature. The elements respond to your inner expectations. .”

"How can it compare to the soul?"

Dante glared at Link, "Soul energy is as rare as magic spirit, and even a little bit is extremely precious. Soul energy shapes the shape, and magic spirit changes the nature. The combination of the two is the real thing. The rarest thing, the lowest level is the fantasy level."

Dante picked out a magic dagger that glowed faintly from the inside, and asked Link to hold up the newly forged long sword to try the effect.

The dagger was as sharp as a laser, and it easily cut the strengthened rattan armor in half without much effort.But when encountering the long sword, not only did it fail to split into two like the rattan shield, it also broke a gap by itself, which made Link a pain in the flesh.

No matter how this magic item costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins, I don't know if he will ask me to pay for it.

"Only a small amount of Mojo of Destiny can achieve such a change..." How powerful would it be if the big ball of Mojo that was glued to the boot was used to make items?

Link's imaginary was seen through by Dante at a glance, and he warned Link that it would not be better to use more.The essence determines the upper limit of the item, and the magic essence only plays the role of upgrading and strengthening, and cannot change the essence.Next time you have another adventure, don’t use too much when strengthening this sword. The amount you use can only be 3 to 5 times that of this time. Once the limit is exceeded, not only the sword will be scrapped, but even the magic essence will be destroyed along with it.This is the biggest difference between magic essence and soul energy. Soul energy can be repeatedly extracted and reshaped, while magic essence is irreversible once used.

"Hmm~ I can't think of a name for it." Unlike the bee stinger, Link thought for a long time but couldn't think of a suitable one.

"It doesn't even count as a semi-finished product now. I will give it a name when it is perfect." After picking and choosing, he found two new scabbards, and Dante pushed Link out of the furnace. Sitting in the closed sales hall, it seemed as if he had stayed here all night.

Seeing that the weapon in Link's hand was shining brightly, he praised it as a good sword.

"That's right, he is willing to use good materials for you, but he is stingy with what he made for me..."

"Go, go, don't you have enough good stuff to take from me? Get lost, you two unworthy disciples." Dante gave up as soon as he heard that, threw the pipe away, and chased after him with a hammer in his hand. Gonzalez hurriedly dragged Link and ran out of the dwarf's wrought iron house.

Seeing Link running out of breath, Gonzalez asked him why he didn't use magic to restore his physical strength.

"Don't, don't mention it, it's all used up..."

It was still a little while before dawn, and the gate of the fortress had not yet opened, so Gonzalez pulled Link to sit down in a random place in the vaulted hall.

"Last night, I received a battle report from the north. The Undead Empire launched a new round of onslaught. The Jingyao Forest fell. The glow elves have sailed westward by boat to the last refuge."

"So fast..." Link who had just sat down stood up.He thought he could last for a while, but without the Jingyao defense of the elves, the army of undead was about to drive straight in.

Gonzalez suddenly mentioned this, could it be...

"The commander dispatched two legions of dragon riders and mages to head north."

"You and Su are going to the battlefield?"

"The main task, I have to go, and this is also a good opportunity to improve the rank."

"But hasn't he already..."

"In such emergencies, amnesty can be obtained. The mage group has already set off at night. This is what he told me to leave for you." Gonzales took out a cloth bag, which was heavy, and he didn't know put something.Then he himself took out a bag of the same size, "This is mine. Except for some gold coins, it is all ores and some materials that can be used to make magic props."

Link stared blankly at Gonzalez's outstretched hand. For some reason, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Is there something you're hiding from me?"

After a moment of silence, Gonzalez didn't tell Link the truth: "I'll tell you when you finish the main line here and go to the north to fight against the undead."

"Can't we say it now? It's related to Rhodes? Or Su? Or something else?"

"Don't guess, it has nothing to do with you, it's some of my private affairs." Habitually patted Link on the shoulder, Gonzalez walked towards the passage dedicated to dragoons.

Carrying two heavy bags and standing there for a few seconds, Link chased after him, only to see a synthetic beast called a dragon soaring into the air.

"Gonzalez!"

He didn't look back, only leaving a back for Link.

What is that guy doing, you must make a phone call and ask Su Wu when you return to reality.
