Chapter 1599: Professional Blacksmith
"What!!!??"
Hearing what Old Wang said, Quan Zhen Sect's players were shocked.
Everyone knew that Old Wang had an Ancient-grade blueprint which was valuable, way more than any Ancient-grade equipment.
After all, this blueprint could be used for more than just forging the Ancient-grade equipment.
There were many high-level Blacksmiths on the market now but they were stuck there as they had not forged Ancient-grade equipment. If any of them used this to forge one, that Blacksmith would break through the bottleneck and level up to become a Forgemaster who could forge Ancient-grade equipment.
Hence, this was how important this blueprint was.
Of course, Blacksmith's forging did not guarantee 100% success rate and it was even lower when a high-level Blacksmith forged Ancient-grade equipment.
Since <> started till now, there was only one player who forged Ancient-grade equipment and that was Wang Yu.. He had reached the master level so because of this, letting Wang Yu forge this would lead to a higher success rate. However, Old Wang wanted to let this young Blacksmith forge such a precious thing. This... This was not a wise decision.
Honestly, the Quan Zhen Sect was not familiar with support players. Choba 345 was brought in by Wang Yu so he rarely interacted with the rest usually so they were just acquaintances.
Although he was usually very hardworking, to let him practice with such a precious thing did make it hard for Quan Zhen Sect's players who were usually pompous to accept it.
If the forge was a success, great, Old Wang would be happy, everyone would be happy...
However, if he failed, his forge XP would +10... That would be awkward.
Money was not the important thing and neither were the materials. The most important thing was that this blueprint was invaluable. There was only one of this in the world and no amount of money could buy another.
Old Wang's style of doing things could be told through his actions. At such an old age, he was still illogical, demanding and even less patient than Ming Du. If they angered him, the whole Quan Zhen Sect including Wang Yu would be harshly dealt with by him.
In such a situation, Wang Yu could be even stronger but there was no use as he could not retaliate.
"Ohh..."
Wang Yu did not consider so much. He just nodded to Old Wang's words and without hesitating, he took out the blueprint and materials and passed them to Choba 345.
"Eh?"
Seeing the blueprint Wang Yu handed over, Choba 345 was stunned. He grabbed the blueprint and emotionally said, "Ancient blueprint... This is an Ancient blueprint..."
Everyone was used to fighting and they often looked down on players who focus on supporting jobs as they see those jobs as informal.
No one knew why Choba 345 was so passionate about being a Blacksmith so they did not know what this blueprint meant to him.
"Why, are you not going to help me?"
Seeing how Choba 345 was in shock, Old Wang asked with a wide smile
"No..."
Choba 345 was surprised and said, "This is such a precious blueprint. I'm afraid..."
Speaking halfway, Choba 345 seriously said, "Do you want to reconsider?"
"I have already considered it!" Old Wang waved his hand and said, "At worse, it would fail. I can ask my son to get me another blueprint since he just said he has a better one."
"F*ck!" Wang Yu was done and wanted to give himself a slap on the face. Why did he have to show off? Great, now his father had eyes on him. Never flaunt your wealth is indeed wise, ancient advice.
Fearless and the rest wanted to persuade him but hearing what Old Wang said, they did not say anything.
Well, he could get his way because he had his sons... Especially since his sons were Wang Yu and Evil Rampage. One gave him the materials while the other gave him the blueprint. All he had to do was put on the equipment. Perfect!
"This..."
Choba 345 was, after all, still a child, so his stress management abilities were not great. Old Wang's blueprint was a surprise but also stressed him. In an instant, Choba 345's hands were shivering and he was too emotional to speak.
Wang Yu saw this and went over to pat Choba 345 on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous. Just do it like you usually do! Based on your skills, this is nothing. Just don't let your nerves get the better of you."
"I... I understand."
Choba 345 nodded strongly then took the blueprint and materials to the forging table.
"Whoosh..."
With a deep, long breath to calm himself down, Choba 345 put the blueprint onto the forging platform then the forging method for Night Demon Blade appeared before him.
"Hooha!"
With a loud sound, Choba 345 opened the furnace and according to the steps on the blueprint, he put in the black iron, silver, elite gold and other materials.
With the help of the system, the forging procedure for Blacksmiths was way simpler than in real life as in real life, they had to leave them for the correct time while worrying the fire might not do a good job but in the game, everything was based on data which could be seen in one look.
As the materials were being put in gradually, a bar appeared in front of Choba 345.
The metal materials in the furnace began to melt slowly and the materials mixed together to form a fiery red liquid metal.
Just then, Choba 345 familiarly put the blueprint into the model mould and a Night Demon Blade mould instantly appeared below the furnace.
Soon, Choba 345 pulled open the furnace's door and the liquid metal poured into the mould on its own to form a big jet black blade.
After that, Choba 345 placed the black blade on the iron case then lifted his hammer to rhythmically hammer it.
"Ding ding, dang dang, ding ding..."
A series of musical hammering sounds could be heard and the big blade on the iron case slowly evolved.
Although the rest were not Blacksmiths, after playing the game for so long, they had an understanding of the job.
To Blacksmith players, the earlier procedure was not hard with the help of the system and the later on assembly portion was also easier than moulding it. Only the hammering portion was the challenging part.
At the same time, it tested the basic skills of a Blacksmith so it was the step which tested players' skill the most.
By mastering the hammering techniques, the produced equipment would have high attributes and had a high chance of having all types of attributes.
If the hammering technique was not mastered, the player would be lucky to even have equipment with trashy attributes. Most equipment forgings failed because the Blacksmith failed the hammering portion.
