Chapter 521 67. The first full level of a young man always comes so suddenly
The [Forger] talent brought to Mason by the Isu bloodline cannot be processed through batch production like Lian Chengzhen to "swipe order" card bugs. It must be made by Mason himself one by one.
And the judgment of this thing is very subtle.
To give the simplest example, if Mason repeatedly produces the lowest-level firearm components with his now shocking manufacturing skills, even if tens of thousands of sets are made in a day, it is impossible to meet the quantity requirement of [Forger].
Don't ask Mason how he knew.
How could a little clever ghost like him not try to overcome various bugs?
But even a guy like Mason, in his long battle of wits with the character card system, has to admit that the person who designed and built this thing is a genius.
That guy perfectly avoided most of the BUG operations that Mason could think of, just like a very complicated and complete set of proficiency calculation formulas required for the growth of the hidden skills of the character card, this thing cannot admit that Mason has shoddyly made things.
He must be able to get a valuable quantity after each "valuable" crafting.
Breakthrough from a first-level blacksmith to a second-level blacksmith requires 2,000 manufactured items, which is still a goal that can be achieved through long-term fine workmanship.
However, the requirement for 50,000 items to be crafted from a second-level breakthrough to a third-level blacksmith is an exponential increase. Mason needs to use his hands to complete such a huge project, even if he does not sleep 24 hours a day, even if Mason completes a craft in five minutes However, it would take seven months to accumulate enough breakthroughs.
He simply doesn't have so much time to waste, and how can a person not sleep for a second for seven months in a row?
He's a trailblazer and a superhero, and he's got things to do to save the world, but luckily, Mason's mutant ability becomes a cheat that isn't a cheat.
The 12 water molecules worked tirelessly and successfully completed the huge project that would have taken more than seven months to complete in less than a month.
Just today, all the conditions required for [Forger] talent upgrade have been met.
Under the call of engineer Mason, all Mason clones, including those who read as "assistants" and were used as "coolies", were also summoned to the engineering laboratory of the pocket factory.
Everyone is waiting to witness the miracle moment.
The main body, Mason, rolled up his sleeves, wearing an engineer coat, and holding a Thunder Hammer in his hand, was beating the arm assembly of a mass-produced Fenrir armor in front of him.
The progress bar needed for the bloodline breakthrough has been stuck at [49999/50000]. It only needs Mason to complete the installation of the arm component in front of him to complete the assembly of the Fenrir armor, and his blacksmith talent will usher in the final stage. upgrade.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is indeed a memorable moment.
Scribe Mason and Tailor Mason have already grasped the garland in their hands, and the other Mason clones are watching this moment intently, ready to cheer at the frustration of Engineer Mason.
These guys are all eccentric, and they didn't come here to cheer.
Just because their "little secret" couldn't be kept anymore, they ran to seize the opportunity to lick the subject, so that the subject would not be so angry.
After all, the "personal safety" and even the "existence" of the water body are based on the will of the subject. Mason can be said to be in charge of life and death over the water bodies.
And the main character is also good, he is not the kind of annoying guy, he will calm down when everyone licks and blows rainbow farts.
"Snapped"
The forging hammer in Mason's hand hit the connecting piece with very precise force, pressing it into the groove, and took the electric drill from engineer Mason, and tightened the last screw.
The moment his fingers left Fenrir's armor, his head was dizzy, and his body shook in place a few times.
Because a huge amount of information poured into the brain, it was as if a certain floodgate was pulled open and all the treasures contained in it were poured into Mason's hands:

All manufacturing branch judgment +2
This large string of text descriptions has been enough for Mason to check for a while, but the bigger surprise is yet to come.
After the +1 talent of the manufacturing branch originally given by the Isu blood was upgraded to +2, the engineering of Lv8+1 instantly entered Lv8+2.
So here comes the problem.
Observers, please use preschool mathematics to calculate, 8+2=?
"唰"
Before Mason could react, another bunch of information flooded into his mind:
It is detected that the host engineering skills have reached Lv10 skill information, and the novice period is over. The character card [Peak Skills] module is loaded. The upper limit of branch skills is increased to Lv12. The highest title [Master Craftsman] is unlocked.
The character trait [Educated Master Engineer] is replaced with [Great Master of Engineering: The production time of all engineering blueprints mastered by the host is shortened by 50% when they are made into real objects. When the host uses the engineering equipment made by himself, the damage, defense, and Perception is greatly improved. 】
The skill of the engineering branch reaches Lv10, and the final talent of the engineering branch is unlocked as [Black Technology Realizer: Give the talent owner a special understanding ability, so that he can learn various technologies beyond the current technological level more quickly and designate a black technology Improve the speed of technical comprehension.
Currently, you can specify the fast learning black technology as:
Knowledge of causality · observer knowledge, digital rate weapon · observer knowledge, cosmic energy frequency adjustment · cosmic tuning fork, plane multidimensional space model understanding · Isu aurora device · unfinished. 】
This is a really, really cool new feature, but Mason won't have time to look it over.
The influx of these information caused him to fall limply to the ground with a splitting headache, and several screaming Mason avatars hurriedly reached out to support him.
But because Mason's own spirit was unstable, the other avatars screamed at this moment and turned into flowing water flying around Mason.
It's like a certain third prince making trouble in the sea, messing up the engineering laboratory.
This was not Mason's intention.
But he will be really uncomfortable, a vague voice has been calling him, making him drowsy and uncontrollable, trying to open his eyes but really unable to withstand the call from the source of blood in the last few seconds , Mason stretched out his hand not far away, and stammered:
"Ultra. Defense program, start!"
"Ao Chuang received!"
The demonized Fenrir was instantly activated, and formed a "defense triangle" with the anxious ooze monster Kevin and the frightened Phoenix Fox, and completely sealed off the suitcase factory at this moment.
The Panama hat worn on Mason's head also anxiously dented a human face at this moment and shouted:
"Consus! Get out of here! This is your Isu fellow who is causing trouble again! I warn you! If something happens to Mason, I will never end with you!
Think more about his partners! They will wipe you out completely, don't be stupid! "
"Don't worry, Mr. Hat."
Consus's data projection appeared beside the unconscious Mason. He bent down to check Mason's situation, and said to the anxious hat:
"Isn't it in a hurry?"
Hat shouted:
"I don't think every Isu is as decent as you, drive your brother away quickly, Mason's great achievements cannot stop here, don't you understand?
He came from 'outside'!
He came from outside this closed dying system. Others don’t know, but I don’t know? He has been our hope of solving problems from the beginning. "
"I knew it from the beginning, I thought Mr. Hat was too slow to perceive Mason's abnormality."
Consus chuckled. He put his hand on Mason's hot forehead. When it turned into pixels and dissipated, he said to the hat:
"Don't worry, I promise Mason will not be harmed by Hephaestus, I promise!"
—
"Is it you calling me?"
At this time, in Mason's spiritual world, the Isu phantom that had appeared twice reappeared again, but this moment was no longer abruptly entering a certain memory belonging to the Isu craftsman Hephaestus, but more like The scene was rebuilt in the spiritual world.
Mason, wearing a windbreaker, stood in front of a weird launch pad, and in front of him was a scene where hundreds of completed Isu Golden Apples were about to be launched out of the world.
He could see the Isu commanding the servants of the primitive humans who were too respectful to lift their heads to return the items, and the Isu Athena was standing in front of the launch pad to make the final inspection.
Mason also saw Hephaestus, the **** of fire and forging.
The latter seemed to be out of tune with other people. During this important moment 70,000 years ago, he stayed quietly on the periphery away from the crowd, as if waiting for a meeting with someone across time.
"Yes, I am calling you."
The man replied.
This is the first time that Mason saw the face of Hephaestus from a third-person perspective. It is not similar to Mason's face. He has the same fair skin as Consus and a pair of eyes full of wisdom.
Long-term craftsman production makes him tall and burly, just like the legendary blacksmith god.
"Is your consciousness about to wake up?"
Mason was not too anxious or frightened. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a cigarette jumped into his hand and was held by his mouth. He asked curiously:
"Are you planning to use my body to complete the 'resurrection'?"
"No, I don't have that plan."
Hephaestus raised the pure white ribbon on his body and draped it over his shoulders. He no longer looked back at the launch pad where the Isu Golden Apple was about to be launched. He turned his head to look at Mason and said:
"That was a bad design."
"No, it doesn't fail, just incomplete."
Mason corrected:
"It still protected your world for 70,000 years, but now it is old and needs to be upgraded.
I know that you and Athena designed an upgrade process for the Aurora device, just because you didn't have enough time to push this design to the final stage. "
"This is the problem, I guess you want to ask me for the follow-up upgrade blueprint of the Aurora Device?"
The God of Forging sighed, spread his hands, and said to Mason empty-handed:
"But unfortunately, I don't have the super wisdom to design a creation that can stop disasters. You will return empty-handed, my successor in the future."
"I got it."
Mason exhaled the smoke ring and said:
"After dismantling the internal structure of the Aurora device in the Grand Temple of New York last time, I guessed this result. You left redundant space for upgrading, but did not set up corresponding functional partitions for it.
This means you guys know it needs an upgrade, but don't have a direction.
Not even a single inspiration.
But if you use my body to resurrect, you still have time to reset the system. I'm not tempting you, but the fact is, if you want, you can now compete with me for control of the body. "
"I can't come up with a design."
Hephaestus shook his head and said to Mason:
"It's useless to occupy your body, but if I give up the resurrection, it means that you will be able to use your astonishing wisdom to help us complete this final upgrade.
so."
He took a step back, smiled and said to Mason:
"I give up resurrection! Mason Cooper, I will not interfere with your career. I hope that the knowledge and wisdom I leave behind can help you accomplish what we failed to do 70,000 years ago.
do you know?
I've been watching you.
I 'woke up' when your blood concentration exceeded 8%, but I didn't interfere with any of your decisions, just like a ghost like Consus has been silently observing your actions and your decisions.
I have enough to confirm this.
You are more worthy than me to live in the dark age you are in. What it needs is not a failed master craftsman, but an outstanding leader. "
"You think so highly of me?"
Mason raised his eyebrows in surprise and said:
"To be honest, I'm a little flattered."
"I'm just making a judgment on your future. In fact, you are still a little bit away from being 'excellent' right now, just a little bit closer."
The God of Forging smiled and made a "fingertip universe" gesture, which made him lose the stealing market and also won Mason's favor.
The captain laughed and said:
"Actually, there is no need to make these two difficult choices. I can help you temporarily parasitize in the shroud of the Isu like Consus, so that you can see the future with your own eyes.
To be honest, I also need a good engineering assistant. "
"But I'm tired, Mason."
Vulcan shook his head and refused without any hesitation. He looked at a tall figure in the crowd, which was his wife Aphrodite, the goddess of love, **** and navigation.
No matter how ruinous the private life of this couple is in other myths, at least in Isu mythology, their existence is the highest praise for the concept of love.
He waved his hand at Mason, walked towards his compatriots, and said:
"I tried, I tried, I failed, my story ended 70,000 years ago, and my wife's eternal sleep before the end is not an unacceptable ending.
My wife and I do not seek to be resurrected in a time that is not mine.
That makes no sense.
I have always believed that the existence of life itself is worthless. Living just to survive is not the life I pursue. Only the wonderful stories created by using life as a carving knife are worth remembering.
My life is already legendary enough, and I have no regrets in dying. My wonderful life has ended and your life has just begun. I have no reason and I don’t want to interrupt the birth of a new legend.
Fate has treated me well, so I can't ask for more.
My meeting with you today is just to say my final farewell, and to tell you the blessings from the God of Forging. Now that I have finished speaking, it is time for you to move on, Mason.
My best apprentice. "
"Well, you're going to travel a long way and I'll have nothing in return."
Mason took a step back.
Looking at the rapidly disappearing scene in front of him, he stood on the spot and leaned forward, saying in a respectful tone:
"Farewell, the mentor I first met."
