Keir was embarrassed, but he still decided to listen to other craftsmen. After all, listening to people's advice and eating well.
Although the edges on both sides of the long sword hadn't been sharpened yet, the handicraft craftsman had hammered out the thin and sharp edges very well. It seemed that with a little sharpening and polishing, it would be a sharp long sword.
In order to show solemnity, Kiel held the long sword in his forehand on his chest and raised it with both hands. The eyes generally did not look at the blessing prayer of the Church of the Sun God on the sword body, but focused on the entire long sword.
The strong light emanating from the surface of the long sword was unbearable for others, but Kiel felt that it was okay, although it was in the way, it was not dazzling.
"If you have a spirit, please restrain your light. If you know me, please do as I tell you, and fight with me, no matter how powerful the enemy is." After finishing speaking in a low voice, Kiel looked forward to With a long sword.
The miraculous thing came, as the craftsmen said, the long sword that had been shining quickly restrained the various forces released.
"It's done!" The artisans clapped their hands to congratulate each other, and the shepherd craftsman handed over the scabbard of the recast hunting sword: "The sword and the scabbard are combined, and it is a complete weapon."
"Thank you." Keir thanked, took the scabbard, and inserted the long sword into the scabbard.
Clang.
With some difficulty, Keel looked at the craftsman.
"It's normal. The long sword has not been sharpened yet, and the edge of the sword is somewhat obstructed. Just wait until you sharpen the weapon."
"So what about now? You have all the tools here." Keel pointed to a pedal sander in the room.
Unexpectedly, the craftsman waved his hand: "That thing is not good, it's not that you are not allowed to use it, but your weapon is not an ordinary steel weapon, it is mixed with magic metal, and its hardness is amazing." He laughed: " If you use that kind of ordinary stone wheel grinder to grind it, you can’t fix it all afternoon. Just wait, I have a special set of grinders, and I’ll give you a sharpening.”
After finishing speaking, the pastor craftsman returned to the room where the valuables were stored before, and quickly took out a wooden box from the corner of the room.
There was a lot of dust on the wooden box, but he didn't care, there was a dedicated young craftsman next to him to wipe it clean.
Opening the wooden box, Keir was a little disappointed with the contents. He thought it was some kind of magical tool, but it turned out to be a stone wheel. However, the slight difference is that the color of this stone wheel is black, and when the light shines, it reflects many fine reflections.
Without touching it with bare hands, the Mu craftsman took out his gloves and introduced them to other craftsmen: "Attention, everyone, this thing is a kind of volcanic hard rock. It looks like nothing. In fact, there are many sharp spots on the surface that are not visible to the naked eye. Hard teeth. And this thing is not an ordinary rock, its hardness is much harder than steel."
While speaking, he took the black stone wheel out of the box. Keel saw that there were many rough wear marks on the edge of the wooden box holding the stone wheel.
A craftsman had previously removed the stone wheel from an ordinary stone wheel grinder.
The Mu craftsman directly installed the stone wheel, fiddled with it, and it was installed. He took off his gloves for others to watch. The simple movement of the black stone wheel on the glove has already scratched off many tough and thin lines on the surface of the glove, leaving a rough surface.
It was obviously a new pair of gloves just a moment ago.
"You must not touch it directly with your hands, otherwise, wherever you touch it, it will be scratched by its sharp surface, and the palm lines will be cut off for you." The Mu craftsman introduced it to other craftsmen.
Everyone else nodded yes, indicating that they would not be careless.
Keir remembered that in his previous life, the lab teachers taught the students the same, repeatedly expressing dangerous actions, please do not imitate them.
Keel pulled the long sword out of the scabbard and handed it to the shepherd craftsman.
The other party first checked the place to be polished, then sat on the chair of the stone grinder, stepped on the pedal at the bottom with both feet, and the stone wheel on the top immediately rotated rapidly.
He brought the edge of the long sword that needs to be polished close to the stone wheel, and a lot of sparks splashed out as soon as he touched it.
"Don't be nervous, this is a normal phenomenon. The two of them are wrestling. Although your long sword is very tough, my stone mill is specially designed for it. Haha." , while joking with Kiel. Other craftsmen don't have this kind of technology, especially when polishing weapons, if the apprentices are not careful, they will rub their palms and fingers on the rapidly rotating stone mill.
In mild cases, a small piece of skin is scraped off, in severe cases, fingers will be worn off. very dangerous.
The other craftsmen didn't want to disperse, so they sat around the room, dawdling casually. They first extinguished the stove, and then took out the unburned coal and took it outside in an insulated clay pot for the apprentices outside to use.
Unused coal and charcoal were put into sacks, and they moved them to the warehouse of the workshop by themselves. They checked and wiped the other forging tools that had been used before.
While sharpening the blade, the Mu craftsman commanded and praised other craftsmen: "That's it. After using things, they must be arranged and placed in their original places. This is not only a rule, but also a long-term accumulation of excellence. The excellent truth hidden in the craftsman."
He went on to say: "Where things are placed, only when they are put back after use, can they be easily found when they are used next time. Occasionally, some unexpected things will appear in the forging process. When they appear, the required tools should be placed where they should be. Only in this place can we find the tools as quickly as possible and use them to deal with emergencies.”
Several young craftsmen said yes, but the middle-aged craftsmen shrugged, expressing obvious things, needless to say.
Afterwards, the animal husbandry craftsman babbled about many rules and regulations in forging, which made Keir listen to the scriptures, and his mind was swollen. A guy named Tang Seng.
After finally rubbing the tip of the sword on the stone mill a few times, the animal husbandry craftsman stopped the movement of his feet, and the stone mill gradually stopped.
He held the long sword in his hand and looked at it from different angles. After finding nothing wrong, he smiled with satisfaction: "It's done. Keel, take it and have a look."
Kiel took the long sword, first glanced at the edge of the blade, and found that it was not very fine.
Seeing Kiel's puzzled expression, the animal husbandry craftsman explained: "Stone wheel grinding also has a limit. Generally speaking, this sharpness is already the limit sharpness that this big guy can achieve. If you want to be sharper, generally speaking You can only use a whetstone for fine grinding."
Seeing that Kiel was about to speak, the craftsman stopped Kiel, and he continued: "I know what you want to say, but I can tell you that you can't do it. Because your long sword is no longer made of ordinary steel. , the whetstone that can be used to sharpen ordinary weapons can't be used to sharpen this long sword. Now it can be used, even if you use it to chop stones or other weapons, its edge will not wear out at all. It will only leave traces of wear and tear when it collides with materials of the same level of hardness and toughness.”
Keel figured it out: "You mean, I can polish it very little later? Or fix it?"
However, the animal husbandry craftsman did not answer Kiel's question, but used Kiel's question as a test question, and tested other craftsmen on the spot.
Although the young craftsmen couldn't answer the question with a face full of embarrassment, the older craftsmen all gave the answer: "Grinding and rust prevention can be omitted, but things that are corrosive to metal should be dealt with as soon as possible."
"Very well, then let's go out and see how powerful your long sword is now?" The shepherd craftsman took the lead, and Kiel hurriedly followed: "I have the same meaning, and I can't wait."
-
They didn't go far, and they were still in the weapon forging workshop.
Since it is a place to forge weapons, there must be a place to test the performance of weapons. After they walked out of the special forging room deep in the workshop, they turned around and came to the entrance of the workshop.
There is a wall here that is dedicated to craftsmen and buyers to test the performance of weapons. There are many thick logs standing beside the wall, and many chopping marks are left on them.
The apprentices all knew what their masters were doing today, so they came to the place where the weapons were tested as soon as they came out, and they all gathered spontaneously, wanting to see the manager of the weapon forging workshop, the shepherd What weapons did the craftsmen forge today.
Among all the people, Kiel was holding a long sword in his hand, so everyone didn't have to guess, they knew that this thing was forged today.
However, the hunting sword scabbard has a simple appearance. Although the wood on the scabbard is a good thing, it still cannot attract the attention of the apprentices.
Kiel rubbed the spherical moonlight iron at the end of the hilt a little, wondering what he was thinking. Seeing that everyone gathered around each other for a long time, and also gave him the space for the test, Kiel was not polite, didn't say much, and directly grasped the hilt of the sword. The green light of the hilt flashed and disappeared. Into a continuous force.
Draw your sword out of its sheath, clang!
It was like the chirping of a falcon before its pounce, which not only shocked everyone, but also surprised everyone.
Because after Kiel drew his sword out of its scabbard, the blade of the long sword was not what it was before. It looked dull, gray and black because of the mixture of black iron, but it was covered with a layer of white light that could be clearly seen during the day.
Keir raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect this weapon to be so conspicuous.
But now that it was like this, he had no choice but to admit it.
After a few simple swings, the blade flashed, leaving obvious swing marks in the air.
After standing still, Kiel stabbed directly, and with a puff, the thick tree trunk that Kiel aimed at was directly pierced deeply by the long sword. The tip of the long sword and the middle of the blade are all penetrated. Kiel looked at the animal husbandry craftsman, who nodded, confirming Kiel's thoughts.
Kiel didn't say anything, just backed away and stabbed again.
"How is it?" The craftsman asked confidently, crossing his arms.
Kiel expressed satisfaction.
Then, Kiel tried methods such as chopping, chopping, pulling, pointing, stretching, sending, piercing, etc., and then held the long sword in both hands, one slashed obliquely, and the other intact tree trunk was slashed into two sections.
While swinging, Kiel was concentrated, and the blade of the long sword erupted with an unusually bright white light the moment it was swung.
He didn't feel anything himself, but the others around him exclaimed in unison, covering their eyes with their hands, talking about white light, what's going on, and the like.
After the broken tree trunk fell to the ground, Kiel realized the situation of the people around him. Seeing everyone covering their eyes in pain, Keir looked embarrassed and looked at the guy who forged him a long sword but didn't give him instructions on how to use it.
Unexpectedly, unlike the people around him, this animal husbandry craftsman's eyes shined, his movements remained unchanged, and he still folded his arms. Seeing what happened to Kiel, this guy smiled and said, "Everyone, don't panic, everyone's eyes are fine, don't move around, you can't see anything and walk around, don't be afraid to stick your belly on the weapon, Or fall into the stove. They all sit on the ground."
Hearing the words of the person in charge in the workshop, the surrounding craftsmen and apprentices settled down, and everyone sat on the ground.
"What happened just now?"
"Suddenly there was a flash of white light, and I couldn't see it."
"Is it the special function of Kiel's new sword? I guess it is."
"Master Mushou said it's all right, I guess you can see it with your eyes later?"
The shepherd craftsman approached Kiel, and then replied to his subordinates: "Yes, it will be fine after a while, and it will not affect the eyes at all. At most, the result is similar to staring directly at the sun for a meal."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of well-bound paper of excellent material from his clothes. And handed it to Keir.
Just as Kiel was about to speak, the shepherd craftsman made a silent movement, and Kiel stopped talking, looked straight at the writing on the paper, and put it into his inner pocket.
In the complicated pattern rubbed and hot-stamped on the front of the paper, there is a detailed description of the power of the blessing prayer of the Church of the Sun God.
Looking directly at it for a while, Keir saw that this thing was more complicated to use than he thought before.
Other tests on the long sword were no longer carried out. Kiel smoothly sheathed the long sword and hung it on the left side of his belt.
He didn't leave either, and stayed where he was with the shepherd craftsman, waiting for the other craftsmen and apprentices whose eyes he suddenly caught to return to normal. After they could see each other with both eyes, they looked curiously at the long sword on Kiel's waist.
But for their requests to watch carefully, Kiel declined one by one. Everyone didn't say anything, but they were a little regretful, but since Kiel didn't want to, there was nothing he could do.
-
After everyone was healed, Kiel once again thanked all the artisans who participated in the reforging of the longsword hunting work, and apologized to everyone whose eyes were flashed by his weapon. Handle, returned to the hunter stronghold.
In the evening, he lit the oil lamp in the house, and carefully read the church blessing ability instruction given to him by the pastor craftsman several times.
It was only then that Zhao Ji discovered that apart from the ability to suddenly blind the surrounding people with a sudden flash of the sword, the long sword that received the blessed metal plate had other abilities.
For example, when you concentrate on holding the long sword, you can use the long sword emitting a faint white light as a lighting fixture.
If you don't get tired of holding your weapon up all the time.
For another example, Kiel can recognize his trusted companions, and will not be attacked by abilities under the ability of flash blinding. As long as Kiel pays attention when using his abilities, it's fine.
Also, under normal circumstances, as long as Kiel is holding the long sword, the blade of the long sword will emit white light, and all abilities are in a state of waiting to be released. Kiel can take the initiative to hide the blessing ability, or enter a state of energy saving.
However, after entering the energy-saving state, if you wake it up again, you have to wake it up on your own initiative.
In addition to releasing white light to blind the enemy, the instructions written by the church also said that the blessing power hidden in the long sword can be released continuously at one time, but after that, the long sword has to be exposed to sunlight for many days to recover the power of the sun. Or go to the churches of the sun **** in various places and ask the priests of the churches to infuse them with divine power.
Or, if the user himself bears the divine power of the sun god, he can replenish the divine power to the blessing ability on the long sword at any time.
In addition, at the end of the description, it also said that if these things are not enough, you can also find a certain number of Sun God believers, and quickly hold a simple ceremony during the day to guide the power of the gods to support.
As for how to do this so-called 'simple' ceremony, this instruction did not mention it, it only said that the user can go to the Church of the Sun God in various places to inquire, but the identity of the user must be approved by the church.
Zhao Ji put the explanation on the table, leaned on the back of the chair and muttered: "After talking for a long time, a guy like me who can't fight with the Sun God Church can only obediently bask in his weapons. The sun is the only way to do it. Hmph, the explanations are full of coaxing and biased methods. It seems that the church is not spreading this blessing power in vain."
"A user who has accepted this kind of weapon, whether he wants to or not, as long as he uses the weapon, he is inseparable from the Church of the Sun God. Phew." Zhao Ji curled his lips in displeasure.
But he was not happy, so he pulled out the long sword from his waist.
Just holding it in your hand, the blade of the long sword emits a faint white light in the room. Zhao Ji exhaled and blew out the oil lamp, but the sealed room with the doors and windows closed was not plunged into darkness.
Looking around, and then looking at the text on the manual on the table, Keir nodded in satisfaction.
With a thought, he silently recited the words according to the method in the instructions.
Soon, the white light on the long sword converged and disappeared, only a faint white light like a firefly glowed on the text of the church prayer at the root of the sword.
The room was dark, but in an instant, the hilt and the weight ball at the end of the hilt glowed.
Kiel smiled, unexpectedly, these two guys started to show themselves after the white light on the sword body subsided.
He took the long sword in the other hand, and he wore a wooden bracelet in his left hand. This thing was a gift from the Saturnalia Church. The power of the hilt and the wooden bracelet came from the same place, so after switching hands, Kiel found that his energy had increased a lot, and the power brought to him by the hilt changed from a small water pipe to a small stream.
Kiel felt that, between battles, he could try to switch to holding a sword, and the recovery speed of physical strength and energy would be much faster.
As for the moonlight iron similar to the weight ball, although Keir knows that this thing has magical power, it is not like the blessing metal piece of the Church of the Sun God, and there is even an "instruction manual" for guidance and explanation. Secondly, unlike the blessing wood core used as a sword handle, it can clearly play its role, allowing people to know the benefits and enhancements it can bring as soon as they get started.
This thing just emits a moonlight-like light at night. It is said that it has something to expel bad luck and evil spirits, but it is also difficult for Keel to test, so he has to put it on hold for the time being.
If he doesn't know if he is lucky or not lucky and encounters something dirty like a living corpse, he can try this so-called moonlight iron to see if it has any magical power.
There was a lot of activity under the house, and the sound seemed to be that other old hunters had returned to the stronghold. Kiel put away his long sword and went downstairs.
After talking to the other three old hunters who came over for a while, he asked another old hunter who had been training his bow skills to explain his practice results.
As expected by Kiel, the four old hunters were notified by Knight Lanisa today, asking all members of the hunter team to come to her house before noon tomorrow to discuss the preparatory meeting for this year's crusade against wolves.
Originally, knights did not need to discuss matters with their subordinates. But after all, Knight Lanisa was young, and secondly, she herself had failed to deal with the wolves alone in the past few years.
However, since she followed the advice of her elders - Baron Kendall and Knight Crowe, she gathered the best hunters from villages and farms in the county and set up a hunter team dedicated to dealing with wolves in the north of the county~www .mtlnovel.com~ In the next few years, they had many victories. Knight Lanisa deals with the powerful wolf king among the wolves, while the other large numbers of wild wolves are lured and held back by hunters. Not only can they kill a large number of wolves every time, but also let Knight Lanisa With less interference, concentrate on dealing with the wolf king.
As for weekdays, hunters can wander around the villages of the female knights and hunt scattered wolves, which not only disrupts the hunting and growth of the wolves, but also restricts the activities of the wolves from the main production range of human beings.
Last winter, after gradually familiarizing themselves with and discussing various ways to deal with wolves, their group not only caused heavy damage to the wolf king, but also killed a large number of wolf king's subordinates.
I heard from several old hunters that this year is the best opportunity in many years. The wolves are multiplying and growing rapidly, and they suffered a lot last winter. This winter is just when their newborn pups have not yet grown up.
If there is a time in the past few years when the possibility of winning is the greatest, it must be this year.
Keel nodded, taking it for granted.
However, he has no experience in fighting a large number of wolves. Although he has fought against wolves and goblins in the southwest of Doral Forest Village before, it was a mistake after all. .
Now after joining the hunter team, he has to cooperate with the long-range shooting hunters. Keir has no confidence in cooperating with them.
But the hunters are very relieved, as long as Kiel can do himself well, after all, knights and old hunters value Kiel's excellent melee defense and combat ability. As long as Kiel stands at the front line in armor and shield, it will help them greatly.
Keir scratched his head, he didn't expect his role to be so simple, as long as he could carry it?
