Chapter 0011 Enchanting props
"Eh? Show me this quickly!" Melty stretched out her hand and asked Guan Heng for the half of the wooden stick. She felt her hand suddenly heavy and she almost lost her grip: "Ah, it's so heavy!"
"This, this seems to be one of the seven kinds of spiritual trees blessed by the goddess of nature in the legendary Elf Forest, the black ironwood!"
Melty recognized it with some hesitation: "Although I have never seen a real black ironwood, I still know a little about its legendary characteristics!"
After thinking for a while, Melty continued: "The weight of black iron wood is dozens of times heavier than ordinary wood. This is the most significant feature!"
"In addition, black ironwood is also a treasure in the hands of skilled craftsmen. It can make the best enchanted weapons and other props, and can also attract thunder from the sky for magicians. It can be said to be extremely rare and valuable!"
"So I found a treasure?" Guan Heng touched his chin and said, "But what are the enchanted weapons and props you are talking about?"
"Well, even the three-year-old urchin on the street knows this, but you don't know this?!" Melty looked at Guan Heng with contempt.
Seeing Guan Heng shrugging his shoulders indifferently, Melty immediately explained: "The so-called enchanted weapons and props are a specialty that was popular on the mainland three hundred years ago. At that time, people were blessed by the gods. I got a way to create enchanted props, which can add a lot of special effects to ordinary items!"
"For example, black ironwood is extremely heavy. Although it is a wooden structure grown in the soil, it is as dense as metal! People add enchantment effects to black ironwood and can use it as a lightning rod to attract lightning from the sky. As for the use of the Heavenly Thunder, it depends on one’s own thoughts!”
After listening to Melty's explanation, Guan Heng understood a little bit, but he still didn't understand it, so he continued to ask: "Do you know the specific method of making enchanted props?"
"I don't know!" Melty shook his head: "Don't say I don't know. Basically no one on the continent today knows how enchanted props are made!"
"Why is this?" Guan Heng frowned and asked, "Didn't you say that the manufacturing process of enchanted items was very popular?"
"That was three hundred years ago!" A complicated look appeared in Melty's eyes. She lowered her head and whispered softly: "Three hundred years ago, due to the casting technology of enchanted props given by the gods, it was too much. It’s so sharp that aristocrats from various forces and countries have emerged on the continent to follow it and collect various enchanted props!”
"This trend has directly led to a sharp increase in the prices of enchanted props and the raw materials used to make them!"
"Since most of the raw materials for making enchanting props are the seven types of spiritual trees that grow in the Elf Forest, as well as the metal deposits in the orc territory, these two places bear the brunt and have become places frequently visited by major forces. Their fights with each other became increasingly serious and frequent, eventually leading to a war between each other!"
"It turns out that there is such a thing in the past. People's hearts are never satisfied and always want better. It's true!" Guan Heng frowned when he heard this. He then asked: "What happened next?"
"It is said that after the war between the various tribes, none of the five main gods who were supposed to mediate the disputes between the various tribes appeared. I don't know why!"
Melty said: "So the relationship between the major forces went from good to bad, and the casting method of enchanted props was gradually lost as time went by!"
Melty handed the wooden staff back to Guan Heng, and then continued: "Nowadays, any enchanted props are extremely valuable, because things are rare and valuable, and being able to distinguish the quality of enchanted props is really valuable.
Fake appraiser has become one of the most popular subsidiary professions on the mainland!"
"Haha, I just don't know if this wooden stick is a defective product?" Guan Heng smiled. He suddenly remembered the half metal plate in the leather bag, and quickly took it out and showed it in front of Melty: "Look at this.
What, do you know it?"
"This?! This is an appraiser's qualification badge!" Melty took one look and exclaimed: "And it's also a blue badge!"
"Well, let me think about it," Melty tilted her head and recalled, "I once heard an introduction at the door of a guild. Appraisers seemed to be divided into several levels."
"A one-star appraiser has a black iron badge, a two-star appraiser has a yellow-orange badge, and a three-star appraiser is already the leader of appraiser branches in various places. There are only a handful of such experts on the mainland, and their badge is mithril.
Build.”
Melty frowned and said to Guan Heng, "But I've never even heard of the blue appraiser badge!"
"Haha, it doesn't matter!" Guan Heng didn't care, and he picked up the half of the metal badge again: "Maybe it's just a fake badge, haha, I don't care anyway!"
Guan Heng looked at Melty, who was playing with a dagger, and asked casually: "Besides the thorn technique, do you know any other tricks?"
"No!" Melty shook his head and said: "The natural magic spell is different from other elemental magic spells. It requires the ethnic bloodline blessed by the Elf Goddess as a prerequisite, and it can break through at a certain time.
Only when you find the bottleneck can you start to realize your talents on your own!"
"The most advanced natural spell can only be understood by the elven royal family!"
"Alas!" Melty sighed: "As for a half-elf like me, if my qualifications are mediocre, I will probably only be able to master one, two small spells in my life, just like this Thorns spell, which is the most basic one.
If you were a real elf, you would probably know the spells when you were a child!"
"In my opinion, your thorns spell is not very powerful. It can at most block the enemy's movements!" Guan Heng said: "If I guess correctly, this little spell is only auxiliary!"
After glancing at Meldy who nodded, Guan Heng continued: "So if we want to defeat the bodyguards in Xincha Mansion, we still need to practice our cooperation!"
“We don’t have much time left!” Guan Heng said to Melty: “When I was wandering around the town, I found that the notice board near the town gate often posted some task lists asking for help.
If the citizens stay there, if they accept the mission and complete it, they will still be rewarded!"
"We need to purchase some basic equipment, and we still need some funds, so that we can complete the mission!" Guan Heng said, stroking his chin: "In addition, we can also enhance the tacit understanding of our cooperation!"
"Three days!" Guan Heng finally made the decision and said to Melty: "For the sake of funds and training, it will only take three days, and then we will attack Xincha's mansion!"
