Leader of the Ark Raiders

She is hardworking and has absolute talent.

However, the last failure broke her heart.

Vulcan felt very sorry.

This talented craftsman should have shined on a broader stage.

And not in a little Minos, an ordinary blacksmithing competition, falling over that damn equipment failure that shouldn't have happened!

Maybe Xia Guang shouldn't be allowed to participate in the competition in the first place.

Vulcan thought to himself.

The flawed light technology is undoubtedly excellent.

She shouldn't have stopped there.

Or, go to the Artisan Association in person and ask them to give Xia Guang another chance?

No... Leaving aside his identity as an infected person, at least he will definitely not be able to pass the test of the president of the association.

But what else?

Just looking at a good seedling like this, getting depressed little by little?

Vulcan was worrying, and the door of the workshop was suddenly pushed open.

The blond Kuranta girl ran in.

"Xiaguang?" Fengshou Blacksmith looked at this person who shouldn't be here unexpectedly, "Aren't you resting today?"

Immediately afterwards, Vulcan saw another person who should not be here.

"Doctor Shen?"

"Hello, Vulcan operator." Shen Cangye walked in behind, pushing a hand-operated forge.

Vulcan was completely confused this time, "Xia Guang, what are you...?"

"Teacher Vulcan, teach me how to use a hand-operated forge!" Maria smiled.

It's a smile from the heart.

"It's possible, but why..." Vulcan wondered.

"Because Maria is going to participate in the forging competition again." Shen Cangye explained, "We are thinking about it now, simulating the additional questions she may encounter in the competition."

"Ah...?" Vulcan was dumbfounded.

Just now I was thinking that I must not be able to handle the president of the association?

What's the situation now?

Someone really took care of the president of the association! ?

Maria said excitedly: "Thanks to Dr. Shen, I got the qualification to participate in the final!"

"Did you... go to the president of the association?" Vulcan said in a daze.

Shen Cangye waved his hand, "Oh, Maria, I told you it wasn't my fault."

"Hey." Maria still smiled naively, but looked at him very dependently.

Vulcan felt incredible.

Not to mention the level of the head of the association, how did the stubborn craftsman association handle it?

"In short, that's how things are." Shen Cangye dragged the forging furnace aside, "Maria will directly participate in the finals, but relatively, the organizers will make it more difficult for her in the finals, and I need your help on this point, Vulcan Miss."

"Okay, how can I help?" Vulcan said immediately, "Can you help with the training of Xia Guang?"

It was also the best result for Maria to pull herself together.

The coach at that end has already entered the state, but the student at this end is still busy.

Maria clung to Shen Cangye's side and hurriedly asked: "Doctor Shen, Doctor Shen, is it too hot in the workshop? Huh... because of the forging furnace, the temperature will be high, sorry."

"I don't feel uncomfortable." Shen Cangye waved his hand.

"Shall I get you an electric fan?" Maria said and ran out.

"Maria!" Shen Cangye held her back, "It's fine."

"I'm afraid you're getting hot, after all, you don't usually stay in the workshop often..." Maria took out a wet towel to wipe his sweat.

Shen Cangye laughed, "You all can bear it, why can't I bear it."

"Then I'll get you a fan?" Maria asked earnestly, "Or, get some ice cubes or something—ah, how about iced Coke? I'll go buy it right away!"

While talking, the little golden horse recklessly wanted to run out again.

"No need!" Shen Cangye said, "I brought water."

Vulcan couldn't help coughing, "Xia Guang, I think Dr. Shen said it's all right, so it's all right."

"Ah... oh oh." The little girl Kuranta smiled shyly, "I'm afraid you might dislike the bad environment here, so you don't want to stay here anymore."

"I said I'll be with you." Shen Cangye patted her head.

Vulcan stared awkwardly.

Shen Cangye coughed, and took out a notebook, "It's like this, Vulcan, last night we studied the additional questions of each game in last year's forging competition, and then made a summary. We want to simulate the occurrence of these additional questions. Can you please teach Maria how to deal with the situation?"

Vulcan thought for a while and said, "Of course, Maria is also capable of coping, but I can guide you."

Shen Cangye nodded, "Then, Maria, today's topic is - first, I will not give you forging tools, you need to use the existing tools to forge a forging hammer yourself. Second, use the hammer you are most afraid of. Hand-operated forge. It took you nearly an hour just to light the fire last time, I hope you—”

"I see." Maria covered her ears, "The forge was malfunctioning last time, and it wasn't my fault!"

"Why didn't you find that the forging furnace was faulty? After all, you are still inexperienced."

"I've already found out that there's something wrong!"

"Then why didn't you call the staff to repair it? If it had been repaired earlier, maybe——uh!"

Shen Cangye finished speaking halfway, Xiao Linguang walked over angrily, cupped his face with both hands, and squeezed hard into the middle.

Shen Cangye had no choice but to stop, and said vaguely: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything."

"I'm sure I won't make the mistake of last time this time." Maria walked to the side of the hand-operated forging furnace in a high-spirited manner.

This time she was very skilled, and she started a fire with three strokes.

"Doctor Shen, look, look! Am I very good?" Xiao Linguang looked at Shen Cangye triumphantly.

"Okay!" Shen Cangye applauded in response to the situation, "But Miss Maria, your forging hammer has not been found yet."

"Oh, I know, I know, stop reading, Master!" Maria smiled and glanced at the other party.

The words were protesting, but the tone was clearly coquettish.

Vulcan watched them silently.

The blemish seems to be different from before.

Being able to joke freely about her previous mistakes means that she has let go, and her heart is filled with a sense of security.

So even in the face of difficulties, you can smile.

Although I don't know why this pony suddenly changed like this.

but……

Very good, this is very good.

Vulcan thought.

But, why does he seem to be brighter than the light bulb above his head?

769. Brave, are you willing to fall into darkness with me?

"—I'm so tired."

Maria sat down on the ground, and Radu couldn't get up.

It has been ten days since the special forging training.

Today's special training lasted a full eight hours, including two forging assessments with three additional questions each.

Little Kuranta just felt that people were falling apart.

In front of her, two devil-like figures sat, staring at her solemnly.

"Maria." Shen Cangye patted Xiao Linguang's shoulder, "You still have a lot of work to do, so you can't rest yet."

Maria stared at him tearfully, "Is this the end of today, Dr. Shen? I can't stand up..."

"Okay." Shen Cangye was a little distressed, glanced at the notebook, and said, "Then let's summarize the mistakes we made today and the areas where we can improve—Miss Vulcan?"

Vulcan nodded, and said: "First of all, the first point, your first knife, the calcination time is not enough, resulting in cracks and cold knots on the surface of the knife when it is forged in the later stage... flaws?"

I saw the golden Kuranta leaning against the wall of the workshop, already asleep.

"Maria." Shen Cangye pinched Xia Guang's sister's ear.

"Wow..." Maria woke up startled.

Vulcan muttered and continued to state, "If the forging is not fully forged, it will easily lead to cracks or even breakage during forging. This point. Tomorrow you need to strengthen special training, and then—the second point, you know why your Does the knife bend sideways after it’s hardened? It’s different this time.”

"...I don't know." Maria's brain had been emptied, and she felt like crying without tears.

So tired.

so tired!

Maria frowned.

I don't want to participate in this competition anymore!

Never want to participate again!

Shen Cangye and Vulcan glanced at each other.

This special training... isn't it a bit too harsh?

Out of guilt for bullying the little girl.

When it was time for dinner, both of them showed special concern for Maria.

mainly reflects in……

"Eat more, blemishes, forging is a labor-intensive job."

"I've eaten this piece of meat too, to add some nutrition, Maria."

"And this carrot, doesn't Kuranta like carrots the most?"

"Maria, don't forget to drink the soup too."

Under the urging of Shen Cangye and Vulcan's words.

Maria on the opposite side puffed her cheeks, and swallowed another mouthful with difficulty.

"I...I really can't eat anymore." Maria was in pain.

Vulcan put another piece of hash browns on her plate, "Eat more, even the little girl with rich feet eats more than you."

"Let's forget about the hash browns." Shen Cangye said.

Maria was about to cast her grateful gaze over it.

A large steak was placed on her plate.

Shen Cangye said: "In any case, you have to finish eating the meat. After a lot of exercise, you need to supplement protein most."

"I really can't hold anything, I can't even drink water..." Maria made a weak resistance.

no more love...

Maria thought to herself.

If mom and dad are like this, I must run away from home!

While Xiao Linguang was struggling to deal with the food on the plate, several other operators walked into the restaurant.

As soon as they met, they warmly greeted sister Xia Guang.
