Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 127 Forged Tools
"Kunpeng" continued to head north.

The height of the sun at this time is still quite a long distance from the sea.

The "Kunpeng", which had experienced heavy rain and was in jeopardy, has taken on a completely new look at this time.

Moreover, there are nearly 500 units of wood in Chen Xuan's material space. Wherever it is broken, he can repair it. Now he doesn't have to worry about the ship being damaged at all.

In addition, although the amount of wood he owns is enough for the "Kunpeng" to expand several times, but after a thrilling experience, Chen Xuan does not plan to do so for the time being.

Anyway, the current deck area is sufficient, and there is no need for more space.

If you have food in your hand, you won't panic in your heart.

At this time, Chen Xuan was sitting lazily on the deck, holding an eagle feather in his hand and playing with it.

In addition to the one in his hand, there are 45 eagle feathers in the cabin.

He was thinking about how to forge these eagle feathers into arrows.

This is actually not difficult.

But these are the feathers of the black-feathered giant eagle, far beyond what the mutated seagull can compare to. It would be a waste if such a good material was just mounted on ordinary wooden arrows.

Now that the goal of upgrading long-range weapons has been set before, it should be acted now.

It's time for wooden arrows to be eliminated.

The key to upgrading the lethality of weapons is the arrow.

Previously, Chen Xuan used wooden arrows, which might be able to deal with mutant seagulls, but against large creatures such as poisonous pythons and black-feathered giant eagles, they are basically powerless, and it is very difficult to break through defenses.

Chen Xuan desperately needed a more lethal arrow.

But the question now is, what material should be used?

The suitable materials in his hands now include the teeth of salmon and the bones of giant black-feathered eagles.

But after much deliberation, he still felt that the arrow made of metal was the most suitable.

There is quite a lot of metal in his material space now, and the quantity is not a problem.

It's just that metal forging is a hassle.

Although it is already known that flesh and blood can lower the melting point of metal, it is not that simple to forge metal, and some conditions must be met.

The first is the issue of training.

Burning metal is a long time, and Chen Xuan's current physical condition determines that he cannot use the "flame injection module" for a long time.

However, due to the small size of the arrowhead, a kiln can be used at present.There is more than enough room in the kiln for a thumb-sized arrowhead.

After the metal is heated to a state where it can be forged, a special forging bench is needed. It is impossible for him to forge directly on the wooden floor of the "Kunpeng".

Therefore, Chen Xuan also needed an anvil.

This is also easy to solve.

Chen Xuan immediately acted.

Anyway, the anvil didn't have any particular shape, so he directly pulled out a large square piece of metal from the material space and put it on the deck to serve as the anvil, which was next to the kiln.

However, as soon as the anvil appeared, the hollow deck made a painful clicking sound instantly because it could not support the weight of the metal.

At the same time, the wood below also broke slightly immediately, and Chen Xuan was so frightened that he quickly put solid wood on the bottom to solve the load-bearing problem.

After the anvil is done, only the last and most difficult part remains.

He also needs a set of special tools for blacksmithing.

Even before the end of the world, if you want to forge iron, you must have professional tools in your hands, but now Chen Xuan has nothing to do with his bare hands.

Not to mention those lathes, at least you need a hammer and a pair of iron tongs.

Hammers were used to strike the metal to deform it, while tongs were used to hold the metal in place for forging.

Among them, the hammer is relatively easy for Chen Xuan, and Chen Xuan immediately started to make it.

With a thought, a small cuboid appeared in Chen Xuan's hand.

Although he has no way to directly convert the metal in the space into a very precise shape for the time being, the shape of the hammer itself is very rough, so there is no need to be too particular, such a small cuboid is enough.

Next, just install the hammer handle and you're done.

This is slightly troublesome.

As a person who loves handicrafts, Chen Xuan naturally often deals with hammers, and those common hammers, in their design, drill a hole in the metal part and directly embed the wooden handle in it.

It is easy to dig a hole in wood, but it is really difficult to dig a hole in metal nowadays.

He could only make a new design, changing the design that should have been wood inlaid into metal into metal inlaid into wood.

This is definitely not as strong as the previous design. In order to enhance the stability, Chen Xuan applied some gel inside.

Then leave it to system optimization.

White light flashed, and a moment later, a hammer with a unique shape appeared in Chen Xuan's hand.

"The hammer has been optimized for the first time, and the effect is stronger! (Compared with ordinary hammers, it is more durable.)"

The effect of optimization is average.

However, it is worth mentioning that due to its sharp design, even the manual master module cannot save this unique shape.

It looked like he had been injured by a hammer and had been bandaged.

It's a bit ugly, but it's just usable.

The hammer is ready, but the production of another tool, the iron pliers, is a big problem.

Iron pliers must be made by forging metal to a certain extent.

This is a bit of a bullshit.

It is definitely impossible for Chen Xuan to directly use the iron tongs.

Is there anything that can be used as a substitute for iron pliers to fix metal blocks?
For a moment he lost his mind.

Closing his eyes, Chen Xuan carefully searched for materials in the cabin.

At this time, the cabin was full of various things. Before he went to the island, there was still a lot of room in the cabin, but after he put the eagle's beak and claws in, the cabin became extremely crowded.

Excluding those foods, the materials he possesses have no fixed properties.

After all, the eagle claws he had just harvested were the most suitable for fixing things. The black-feathered giant eagle grabbed the tree trunk as if wearing tofu. That scene left a deep impression on Chen Xuan.

But the eagle claw the size of a millstone was too big, and it wasn't constructed for the forging used to hold the tiny arrowheads that are now in place.

The eagle's beak is pretty good, and the tightly-fitting eagle's beak can hold things firmly like scissors.

But still the same problem, the eagle's beak is too big.

It would be nice if the eagle's beak could be smaller.

Hold on.

Got it!

Although he can't make the olecranon smaller, but he has a small olecranon.

From the corner of the corner, Chen Xuan pulled out a pointed yellow beak.

This is the beak of the mutated seagull, or the one that Chen Xuan just shot to save Uncle Li and the others when he arrived at Dongji Mountain.

All that remained of the seagull was its feathers and beak.

Moreover, the beak of the mutated seagull was used by him to make an iron beak gun.

The iron-billed gun can emit flames through the tip of the gun. Obviously, the beak of the mutated seagull can withstand a considerable degree of high temperature.

Speaking of which, he has never scanned this thing, and Chen Xuan hastily scanned out the relevant information.

------

Name: iron mouth

Type: special material

Features: It is derived from the iron-billed seagull, which is the part that condenses the essence of its whole body. Although the iron-billed seagull itself is not a very powerful creature, its iron beak has the characteristics of some metals, which can withstand high temperatures and has good hardness. It can also conduct energy.

------

It turned out that the mutated seagull was called an iron-billed seagull, but now he finally didn't need to call it a mutated seagull or a mutated seagull.

And the description of the information can be regarded as explaining why the iron mouth can launch the flame effect.

This is just like a weakened version of metal.

It's just that the beak of the giant black-feathered eagle is called a beak, and the weak creature doesn't even have a name.

The current seagull iron beak cannot be used directly, and some modifications are needed.

Chen Xuan inserted two wooden sticks into the iron mouth, made a bearing out of wood, and made a pair of simple pliers.

Due to the use of special materials, yellow light appeared in this optimization.

But the optimization time did not last long.

"The iron-nose pliers have been optimized for the first time, making them more durable! (Compared to ordinary pliers, it is more durable.)"

What the hell!

Another garbage effect!

No wonder it was optimized so quickly.

Chen Xuan was a little depressed.

After making the hammer and iron-nose pliers, the progress of the "Handmade Master Module" increased by another 6%, currently reaching 74%.

Anyway, now that the tools are done, everything is ready to start forging.
