Chapter 120 The Iron Hand
"Boss! Are you going to create new weapons for me to show? That's great, grandpa doesn't know how to use weapons. I can only learn from farm tools."
Grey was immediately filled with surprise.
The product design ideas he could learn from were, besides the Gobert survival knife, only the farm tools made by Sebala's daily orders. In such limited information, if you want to extract useful designs, you can only rely on 30% of the reference and 70% of the imagination. Once you have learned from all the references, you can only rely on the whole process of imagination.
That pure iron hoe was created under this idea.
That thing can't be considered a brain-sucking, but a brain-sucking hole with just a hole above the neck.
If you want to create First Dimension equipment, you can’t rely solely on existing information, but you still have to give him other inspiration to truly realize your ideals.
I put on my right arm armor and waved it twice in the air. I felt that although this arm guard was rich in functions, the overall weight was only about 15 kilograms. It was no problem for me, a person with a colonist system, who had a constant weight bearing system.
...Okay, it should be insignificant for a strange boy like Gray. He probably built it according to his own weight. Sure enough, he still lacks his experience in building. Ordinary people can't move freely when wearing such equipment - fortunately I am not much inferior in this regard.
"I plan to teach you because you are gearing me up."
I took Gray downstairs and saw that Sebala was missing in the lobby again. I didn't know whether to go to mine or drink.
When he arrived at the forging table, Grey had skillfully started to add charcoal to help me add stoves, prepared the preliminary work required for forging, and waited respectfully for me to teach the technology.
It would be great if this young man had always been like this. Don't always be cold-faced, as if others owed him money.
"Gelfred, today I will teach you two brand new things, you need to look at it."
I skillfully opened the colonizer system and found what I wanted to build in the forging list of forging tables.
"Your current thinking is focused on structural adjustment. This is the right direction. By adjusting the appropriate structure, you can integrate more functions in a limited space."
"However, once you use up all your creativity and materials, you will fall into this unthinkable dilemma. This problem occurs because of your experience and experience. Even if you are extremely talented, you cannot overcome the accumulation of experience and directly enter the realm of being imaginative and easy to pick up."
"So now, I will build a murder weapon that has been tempered for thousands of times."
As soon as Gray finished speaking, my figure immediately moved and began to build the craftsmanship.
I found two good-quality steel ingots from Sebala's stock, mixed copper crystals, toner and other substances into the stove, pulled the bellows, and blew a lot of fresh air into the blast furnace, quickly increasing the temperature in the furnace.
Soon, a pot of bright red molten steel melted into the stove. At this time, with a special arrangement, the temperature in the stove was controlled to less than one thousand degrees.
This belongs to the low-temperature steelmaking method. This method seems primitive, but compared with the high-temperature steelmaking method used by industrial assembly lines, it can produce good steel of pure quality. However, the steel produced at high temperature is softer and easy to form, while the steel produced at low temperature is harder and more difficult to build, and subsequent forging requires more energy.
This is not a problem for me at all!
Soon, a brand new piece of steel was released and specially condensed into a slender half-meter long steel ingot. Heated it again until it was red and repeatedly beaten and forged.
The colonists system controlled me and picked up an iron hammer, beat the steel block into a thin piece in just a few strokes, and immediately folded it and beat it again. This repeated the steel material could be extended.
Such pounding usually starts at least 7 or 8 times, and at most 20 or 30 times in forging, and each time you have to beat hundreds of hammers. For example, when the 10th time, there will be 1,024 layers of steel. This is the legendary "thousands of hammers".
Through this step, impurities such as sulfur and excess carbon in the steel can be removed to increase the elasticity and toughness of the steel. This is like kneading dough. The more layers you beat, the more uniform carbon and various components in the steel will be, and the iron crystals will be more detailed. The final forged steel is of uniform quality, reaching thousands of layers, which is very strong, and eventually becomes a steel with uniform texture.
Gray was watching my operations seriously and quickly memorizing the process details with his brain, but suddenly he widened his eyes, as if he had seen something amazing...
That’s right, the common "iron smelting hand" in the colonists system has appeared again!
Every time we reach the stage of process operation, the colonist system will always develop some crafts that are completely incomprehensible to form a technical barrier that no one can imitate.
For example, forging means that there will be a wonder of smelting iron with bare hands!
I saw me clenching my fist and grabbing the roughly shaped red steel bar, quickly put it in the cold quenching pool and cool it quickly with water, so that the excess carbon-containing part of the steel can be peeled off.
Then, I grabbed a handful of slag from the edge of the steel furnace and sealed it on the blade, and quickly stuffed it into the steelmaking furnace that had slightly cooled down. The soil used for the blade was thinner and the soil used for the hand was thicker. After being fired and repaired while it was hot, it was quickly stuffed into the cold quenching pond.
After a gust of water vapor rose, a thin blade with silver glow appeared on the forging platform. From the overall cold light to the microscopic particles, the delicateness of the ground muscles was like a work of art. The border between the blade and the knife surface produced grainy patterns like sprinkled silver sand, which also gave the entire blade a layer of dreamy color!
"Hu..." After the forging, I let out a breath. Although the high temperature did not burn my hands at all, the scorching air still made me breathe.
"Item Name: Samurai Sword
Item Description: The Samurai sword is a traditional Japanese knife used by Japanese samurai in the feudal era. It is very popular among the colonists as a collector, but it is easy to oxidize.
Item durability: 330/330
Material quality: steel
Melee damage per second: 28.29
Melee Armor Penetration: 17%”
I took out a piece of steel plate as testing material and held the knife and saw that the steel plate was cut straight and cut in one or two pieces. The cut was extremely smooth, and there was not even a trace of damage on the blade.
I threw the knife to Gray and said, "It's just a weapon that firmly implements the concept of slashing. Its appearance, materials, core structure, and usage are all strictly completed according to the needs of slashing."
"So multifunctionalization does not mean that everything is loose, but should be proficient in everything. Each equipment module strengthens one purpose, and then uses another purpose to supplement the shortcomings of the main purpose to form an all-round product."
"From each equipment component to improve functions and make up for each other's defects, we can make up for shortcomings while emphasizing the main functions."
"This is the purpose of First Dimension equipment!"
