Holy Swordsmith

Chapter 11 Thousand Steelmaking

"Forge thousands of steel first, and then forge swords." Ye Shi took out a piece of the most common iron ore and threw it directly into the furnace.

A hundred smelts make iron, a thousand smelts make steel, even swords forged from iron ore can be classified as good or bad.Among them, the most important thing is how far the iron ore is refined, so there is the phrase "a hundred smelts make iron, a thousand smelts make steel", which refers to the level to which iron ore is refined.

A piece of iron ore is hard to come by for an ordinary swordsmith who can refine it dozens of times. An excellent swordsmith can refine it hundreds of times. At that time, the iron ore will be refined into refined iron, and the sword made Compared with the quality of iron swords trained by dozens of people, it is much better.

Iron ore that has been smelted more than five hundred times is called iron essence, which is more than a step higher than refined iron.Among them, there is a large gap between 400 refined iron and more than [-] refined iron, and the iron essence is the same, so whether it is refined iron or iron essence, there are high, middle, low, and inferior points.

But no matter whether it is refined iron or fine iron, it can only be called iron, and only after more than one thousand refinements can it be called steel.Those who can forge thousands of steels are all good at forging. Even if the skill of forging swords is not very good, the method of forging iron ore alone is enough to guarantee a lifetime of food and clothing.

Throwing the iron ore into the stove, there was a burst of ripples immediately, Ye Shi stared at the iron ore closely, countless times of crafting experience in the game, let Ye Shi know that the iron must be struck at the first moment when the iron is hot. Then under the hammer.

At this time, Ye Shi had already picked up the iron hammer in the refinery. Generally, there are many types of hammers for blacksmithing. There are powerful giant hammers, modified medium hammers, finely crafted small hammers, and some special-purpose hammers. hammer.It can be said that there are all kinds of strange things, everything that one expects to find, but Ye Shi is different, the only hammer in his hand is in the whole refining room.

Speaking of which, this hammer is also a treasure, but it was a reward item obtained by Ye Shi during the job change task in the game, and it was at the level of an artifact.It's a pity that after creating a holy sword kit for the job transfer task, the hammer was sealed, and it could only be unlocked when the leaf stone level was sufficient.

Although it was a pity, the holy sword set was regarded by Ye Shi as the treasure of the town store, a treasure that was only displayed for people to see and not sold.You must know that any of these holy sword kits can cause a sensation in the entire game, and it will take the top spot on the treasure list, and Ye Shi owns all the holy sword kits, which is also a living sign of the store.

The hammer of the sacred weapon is called the Hammer of the Sacred Alchemy. It is a sword-making artifact of every generation of holy swordsmiths.

Ye Shi tightly held the Hammer of the Sacred Alchemy, because it was the first time forging swords and iron in the new world, Ye Shi felt a little nervous.In the past, if he knew that there was a swordsmith who would be nervous when forging Qiansteel, Ye Shi would definitely laugh at it, maybe it was retribution, and today it is finally Ye Shi's turn.

"Come out, put it on the stone table." Seeing that the iron ore was red, Ye Shi immediately ordered the store system.

The functions of the refinery are all for casting swords and iron. Even if some functions fail after coming to the new world, it is still possible to control the ore entering and exiting the furnace.

The red-hot iron ore flew out of the furnace and landed on the stone table. Ye Shi had already stood there, swung the hammer of the holy refining hammer violently.

Dangdang.

One hammer strikes three times, this is the hammer hitting the skillful point, and one hammer is comparable to the three-hammer forging skills.Generally, swordsmiths would be very excited if they could hit twice once in a while, but this was not a problem for Ye Shi at all.

Want to say why?You can tell by looking at Ye Shi's expression. At this time, Ye Shi's face is full of excitement. Even if he got so many gold coins before, it is less than one ten-thousandth of this time. If there are not important things to do, Ye Shi will definitely Laughed wildly.

Three strikes with one hammer is one of the skills of the holy swordsmith, and it is an upgradeable swordsmithing skill.Before Ye Shi crossed over, he just raised his level to level three, and only then did he have three rings, and only a powerful profession like the holy swordsmith has such a powerful skill.

In particular, there is no upper limit for this skill, that is to say, as long as Ye Shi has enough experience and improves the skill, it is entirely possible to hit ten times with one hammer, or even a hundred times with one hammer.Even if it is forged with one hammer, it is possible.

Of course, the premise is that the experience is sufficient. You must know that Ye Shi directly raised the skill of hammering to the second level with the holy sword kit when he changed jobs. As a result, he forged thousands of swords to reach the lowest limit of the third level. It can be seen how difficult it is to upgrade this hammer.

But even with one hammer and three strikes, it would definitely envy all swordsmiths. Of course, Ye Shi was not excited about this, but that his skills could still be used.

That's right, the skills of the holy swordsmith can still be used, which means that Ye Shi can cast many sword tools like before. What does this mean? It means that Ye Shi can obtain a steady stream of gold coins.

Thoughts were only completed in an instant, Ye Shi continued to swing the hammer of the holy refining hammer, and it is best to avoid interruptions in forging swords and irons. Once there are interruptions, impurities may appear, which will reduce the refining effect of iron ore, and then affect the quality of the sword.

With one hammer and three strikes, Ye Shi hit a thousand hammers. Although it was only a low-grade fine steel that had been tempered for a thousand years, it was actually comparable to an intermediate fine steel that had been tempered for three thousand years.

One thousand hammers, for ordinary people, the tired hands are already sore, and this is precisely the reason why swordsmiths cannot forge thousands of steel when they forge iron.A sore arm will cause people to stop involuntarily. It is an obstacle that the swordsmith himself cannot overcome. Because the refining of steel only needs a break, and the refining number will be frozen immediately. It will only destroy the forged iron ore.

Ye Shi will not have such troubles, because another skill of the holy swordsmith is to drive away fatigue and distraction.In the process of forging swords and forging iron, you can maintain a certain period of time to eliminate negative effects. Although it will happen afterwards, it is guaranteed that there will be no mistakes in the process of forging swords and forging iron.

At the same time, this skill can improve the physical strength of the holy swordsmith. Even without using the skill in the long run, Ye Shi can still meet the requirements of forging swords and iron by himself.

Thousands of steel refining has been completed, and Ye Shi will return the thousand steels to the furnace, but this time for the purpose of casting swords.Cast the newly forged Qianlian steel into a sword shape, and a simple sword is completed.Of course, if you want a better texture, or even attribute bonuses, you need to add other refined ores.

Soon, after Ye Shi regained his confidence, a finished sword was completed by Ye Shi. Under the inquiry shop system, this long sword-shaped finished sword has reached an excellent quality. Ye Shi is already satisfied with producing a long sword of good quality.

However, this long sword is slightly different from the long sword sold by Ye Shi before. On the body of the sword, Ye Shi deliberately left a few grooves, not the grooves that make the enemy bleed, but something to insert groove.

Ye Shi, who was interested, naturally didn't want to end up with a long sword of good quality for the first time in the new world.He wants to add other ores to the long sword to improve the quality of the long sword. In addition, it is also an attribute bonus in the experimental game. Will it appear.

After a lot of work, the new long sword was soon completed. The grooves of the sword body have been filled with new ore, but it has been cast with leaf stone, so it can't be seen from the outside.Even if it fell into the hands of a swordsmith, he would only think that it was a sword that was cast at one time, using the same ore, and would never have thought that two other ores were added to it.

"Check the properties of the sword." Ye Shi ordered. From the outside, Ye Shi can't see anything, but under the store system, the long sword will be seen at a glance, and he can know the quality of the long sword from it.

At this time, Ye Shi felt a little anticipation in his heart, how far he could forge this long sword.
