Chapter 8 Forging
The semi-plane trading square of Chaos Alliance is extremely formal, and the division of labor in it is very detailed. Shops selling cold weapons such as swords and other cold weapons will not sell guns, bows and arrows, and shops selling material attack skill scrolls will not sell magic skills. If the price of the product cannot be agreed, the clerk will also be responsible for contacting the consignment apostle behind the product and try to make the transaction established.
The cost of consignment of equipment is higher than that of auction houses, but most of the equipment here is more practical than the auction houses. Many purple equipment looks better than those of dark gold equipment with poor applicability in auction houses.
Of course, most of the physical goods owned in these shops are purple and bright gold quality. Equipment above dark gold quality and advanced skill reels are mostly projected consignment, and the transaction method is no different from that of auction houses.
Qin Lun bypassed the shops on the first and second rings of the square and walked towards the outermost third ring shops. The shops here are relatively remote, but most of them do not sell finished products, but provide various professional services. For example: equipment repair, upgrade, enchantment, potion alchemy, inlaid with souls, rubbing skill scrolls, seal summoning objects, etc.
After finding the third blacksmith shop on the left of the Third Ring, Qin Lun soon met Master Francis in the mouth of Succubus. This was an elderly dwarf with a gray beard hanging all the way to his belly, wearing a pair of goggles that looked like a pilot on his head, and a dirty apron on his waist, without the slightest like a master.
"Your pair of light and dark funerals are very strange. The single gun itself is only purple quality. With the rules of the suited weapons, this has achieved purple gold quality..." Francis touched his white beard and praised with his gun. "The Angel's Praise and the Demon Song are excellent in their own material. With my skills, there is no problem in upgrading them to dark gold quality, but..."
"Master Francis, please tell me if you have any questions!" Qin Lun said with a smile.
"The law connection between set weapons is elusive. I can use them as a single gun to promote each of them to dark gold. However, there is a certain chance that they will destroy their law connection. In other words, even if they each advance to dark gold quality, the combined set attributes may still not be able to break through to the legendary realm!"
"That's right!" Qin Lun frowned slightly. The reason given by the master of firearms was reasonable. He had no choice but to believe it. However, Qin Lun didn't want to give up just like that. "Master, what other conditions do you think their suit attributes need to be met to break through to the legendary realm?"
"Well... one is to have appropriate refining materials, and the other is to have appropriate weapon souls. These two guns have opposite attributes. I feel that if they want to break through to the legendary realm, a single weapon soul is not enough. They must have two weapon souls with the same attributes!" The old dwarf said slowly, "And... even if everything is ready, I only have seven levels of confidence!"
"Master Francis, do you see these things work together?" Qin Lun breathed a sigh of relief and poured all the fragmented equipment materials prepared in the storage space on the workbench of the Master of Firearms. In addition, the cards sealed with the soul of the unicorn and the Meze crystal ball that hosted the soul of Mesa were placed aside.
"Hey, Bai Yao Stone... No, no, this is Bai Yao Stone alloy, this is...Lu Ying Iron, Silver Dragon Skin, Hell Fire Gold...The quality of these things has deteriorated a lot, and most of them are smelted mixtures! Where do you come from these precious things...trash!" Looking at the pile of equipment materials on the table, the dwarf widened his eyes and did not hide his surprise.
"Is it trash?" Qin Lun touched the bridge of his nose awkwardly.
"Their quality is nothing to say, but they are all smelted alloy products. If it is not the residue after the equipment is forged, then... you wouldn't have taken out a waste warehouse of apostle equipment, right?" Francis blew his white beard at Qin Lun.
"Absolutely!" Qin Lun smiled bitterly. The pile of things came from the hill cave. The bones of their owners became dolls of the hill giant. The age is no longer verified. It is not wrong to say that it is a waste warehouse.
"Master, are they useless?" Qin Lun sighed.
"Well...if they spend some time decomposing it, they can be regarded as cherishing materials, but... now it will not help the upgrade of the light and dark funeral!" Francis stared at the pair of equipment materials and licked his lips and said.
"How much time will it take to decompose the material?" Qin Lun asked with a frown.
"It will take about a month and a half to solve the problem!" The old dwarf calculated with his fingers, and then gave a rough time.
"It's too long!" Qin Lun shook his head helplessly. For him, the three mission worlds have passed. He promoted the funeral in the dark to catch up with the urban battle for hegemony, and it is urgent.
"If you are in a hurry, then there is only one way!" Francis was not surprised at all, and Qin Lun touched his beard and said, "I have auxiliary materials suitable for funerals in the dark, but the value is definitely not as big as yours, if..."
"Trade!" Qin Lun said firmly without waiting for Francis to finish his words, "This pile of things will be replaced with your materials, and the labor cost will be calculated separately."
"Haha, I, Francis, will not take advantage of you in vain. The manual decomposition of your stuff is probably 5,000 more than the materials I am about to pay for. The labor fee for increasing the light and dark funeral is about 30,000 broken crystals. You can just pay 25,000 broken crystals!" Francis glared at Qin Lun, as if he was very unhappy.
"Okay, then... Master, do you think if the other two weapons and souls are in harmony?" Qin Lun pointed to the unicorn card and the Maiya Crystal Ball in a flattering manner.
"Well, I just checked it. The unicorn soul in the unicorn card has been erased from its mind, and it is very consistent with the tribute of the angel. However, another soul with dark attributes... seems to have a clear consciousness?" Francis said hesitantly, "I am a gun forgeter, not an executioner. You must erase this soul consciousness yourself, otherwise I will not forge it!"
"Yes! Just teach me how to do it!" Qin Lun agreed without thinking, hesitated for a moment, and then took out three bullet molds from the storage space. "Master, after the light and dark funeral is refined, these bullet molds should still be useful!"
"There is such a thing?" Francis's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly snatched three bullet molds of different quality from Qin Lun. After looking at it for a while, he frowned tightly, "Do you have bullets of these three molds on you? Show me!"
Qin Lun's eyes flashed and immediately took out all the bullets in the storage space and piled them on Francis' workbench.
"Tsk tsk, it's such a clever trick. The gunman who created the funeral is such a genius. No wonder I always felt that these guns were weird just now." Francis' eyes glowed, and he carefully stroked the gun and bullet mold.
"Master, is there anything strange about the funeral in the darkness?" Qin Lun asked curiously.
"Well, the essence of the light and dark funeral is a technological weapon, but the gun body is engraved with magic runes. Originally, these two laws could not be pinched together. However, the genius gunman used the bullet mold to perfectly solve this problem. He integrated magic into the gun and gave the bullet mold a technological model of physical attack..."
Francis sighed, "This is a genius design, but... the Light and Dark Funeral may be just his early work. He has not yet fully integrated these two laws. Therefore, the Light and Dark Funeral failed to reflect the true power of purple gold equipment!"
"Master Francis, can you dig out all the potential of the light and dark funeral?" Qin Lun rolled his eyes and asked cautiously.
"I can only do my best! Just add the bullet mold, and the entire refining process will be very complicated and the success rate will be reduced. I need more auxiliary materials, especially containers related to the fusion soul. Only your apostle's advanced evaluation card can be exchanged from the broken starry sky..." Francis said solemnly.
"Master, this thing should be of enough level!" Qin Lun's eyes appeared fiercely. Before the old dwarf could finish speaking, he flipped his right hand, and a silver card was added between his index finger and middle finger.
"Silver Card!" Francis licked his lips and said a little dry, "Enough, let me see... Hey, this is not the silver card of the Low Demon World..."
"Your Excellency, do you really want to use this thing?" Francis said with some regret.
When entering the world of Zhongmo, the apostles who can still obtain silver cards are generally only high-level apostles. Even if the silver cards of Zhongmo are not as precious as legendary items, they are also very rare and it is difficult to evaluate the specific value.
"Light and dark funeral is very important to me. As long as it can enter the legendary realm, it is worth paying any price!" Qin Lun shook his head gently, "If the materials are enough, then I will come to get the weapon again in a few days!"
"How many days? Oh, it seems that this is the first time you have upgraded your apostle equipment!" Francis was stunned, and then said with a smile, "It doesn't take that long, come with me. Anyway, during the forging process, you will also help me erase the consciousness of that dark soul."
Qin Lun was slightly stunned and followed Francis into the back hall of the blacksmith shop.
"What is this?" Qin Lun's eyes shone with strange light and stared at a fully transparent melting pot in the middle of the back hall. This thing was like a three-dimensional projection shining with golden light, and there was no real thing at all.
"Haha, this is a law reactor separated from the core of the city. The reactor is actually a magic furnace, condensed by light elements, and only it can forge, upgrade and repair the apostle equipment. Otherwise, do you think I will use a hammer to hit your light and dark funeral!" Francis said happily.
A moment later, with Qin Lun's help, Francis piled up all the materials on the workbench in front of the reactor.
"Let's start!" Francis seriously put a light-shaped head hood connected to the reactor on his head. At the same time, he opened the central furnace door of the reactor and placed the light and dark funeral in the center. Then he opened several small furnace doors on both sides of the reactor and placed the equipment materials into these supporting furnace chambers one by one.
Equipment materials, reactors, and forging masters who control the refining process are one of the ways to produce apostles’ equipment. The apostles’ equipment produced in this way is more applicable than the equipment directly distributed to the apostles by the broken starry sky, and has a more complete world law.
"Add to the bullet mold..."
"Add to the soul container for redemption of silver card..."
"It is now, unseal the unicorn card and drive the dark souls in the crystal ball into the reactor..."
"Ah~~" the shrill and resentful roar of the witch Mesa and the loud hissings of unicorns rang out in the reactor.
The light was buried in the colorful light of the reactor, rising and falling, and the two gun bodies began to emit red and shine brightly, scattering bright light. At the same time, the three bullet molds also began to melt slowly, gradually forming two clearly distinct metal solutions, one white and one black.
