Arcane Age

Chapter 73 Metal Sharpener

"There was no military factory in Ajaccio. The few original blacksmith shops were all about making farm tools and stoves! I prepared this blacksmith shop three years ago! Now it can make all kinds of armor and weapons. But there are many The key craftsmanship are monopolized by those families with ancient inheritance. We can't access or buy them, so the weapons and armors we make are of average quality. If you can really improve the sharpness of the weapons, even if Just a little bit, and you have brought huge benefits to the Bonaparte family!" Natalia's tone was a little heavy.

Xi Wei didn't respond, just waited quietly.

Not long after, Adjutant Boal and two soldiers came in, bringing with them a large pile of metal and ore samples.

Xi Wei began to take out tools and check these metal samples one by one. Of course, this was just a show, Ling was doing the real testing.

"Copper ore, containing 7.5% copper, is in high demand..."

"Crude iron, with an iron content of 83.7%, is in high demand..."

"Silver nugget, purity 92.1%, low demand..."

"Gold ore, gold content 0.02%, medium demand..."

"Abnormal! Trace amounts of strange metal elements contain a large amount of magic elements, and the magic power is extremely conductive!"

Zero, who was testing, suddenly sounded an alarm, which made Xi Wei suddenly become interested. Sure enough, in the magical world, there must be metals related to magic!

This strange trace metal is found in gold ores, and its content is much lower than that of gold.

"This fast gold ore? Do I know where it was mined?" Xi Wei asked.

Xi Wei lowered his head and looked at all the metals, then stood up and asked.

Natalia turned to look at her lieutenant.

"Sir, these are the trophies from the annihilation of the troll tribe in the Zongza Mountains earlier this year!" Adjutant Boal replied loudly.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with this thing?" Natalia asked curiously.

"Maybe there are some wonderful little things hidden inside, but it doesn't affect our experiment! I can prepare the metal sharpener now!" Xi Wei took out a bunch of small tools from the lining of his clothes. Of course, this was just a cover-up. His hands What reaches is the stable astral space with zero opening.

Although Natalia was very interested, she still walked out of the room. This was Xi Wei's secret and she couldn't watch the whole thing here.

"Do you think he will succeed?" Natalia asked her adjutant boredly after walking out.

"Sir, Boal doesn't know!" the tall adjutant said with an expressionless face.

"Tch! You are so boring!" Natalia rolled her eyes and kicked away the pebbles under her feet.

Zero jumped out of Xi Wei's body and began to chew the required metal hungrily, purifying it quickly and spitting out the impurities. After less than half an hour, she stopped all actions.

During this time, she had completely taken control of this astral creature's body and started to carry out preliminary transformation.

"The raw material reserve has been completed, 83.6% of the required raw materials are completed, 13.7% of the replaceable raw materials are available, and the manufacturing module can be started!"

Xi Wei nodded with satisfaction. The metal and ore provided by Natalia was worth it and almost filled a room full of metals and ores. He basically completed the raw material reserve for manufacturing modules, and soon he would have a miniature universal factory!

"Finish the alloy manufacturing first!"

Following Xi Wei's instructions, Zero began to mix several metals in a certain proportion. The metals slowly melted together and were temporarily in a liquid state. After solidification, they would become a solid alloy.

The strength of this alloy is controlled to a certain extent and is not too sharp.

After another half hour, Xi Wei walked out of the room.

"How's it going? Is it done?" Natalia, who was bored, came over immediately.

"Fortunately, I lived up to my fate!" Xi Wei showed a bright smile.

"Very good! Let me see the effect!" Natalia walked into the blacksmith shop immediately.

"Look, these are two swords forged from the same batch. The materials and styles are exactly the same!" Xi Wei placed two long swords on the table.

The chief craftsman of the blacksmith shop nodded, this was his work.

"As for the sharpness, everyone can try it now!" Half of a wild boar's body hung on the shelf next to it.

Natalia held long swords in both hands and stabbed them into the wild boar's body with the same force. The length of the sword blades that penetrated was almost the same. She nodded too.

A clever apprentice took out two long swords with great effort and wiped the sword blades clean with a white rag.

"Very good, this is my masterpiece - metal sharpener!" Xi Wei took out a small gray bottle, which contained a bright silver viscous liquid with a faint smoke.

Natalia wanted to get closer and take a look, but was gently stopped by Xi Wei: "Sorry, this is extremely high temperature!"

Xi Wei activated the mage's hand, used a small straw to draw a little liquid, and spread it evenly on the blade of one of the swords.

Under zero control, Xi Wei's muscle control reached the extreme. The coating on the sword was even and dense, without any omissions.

The originally dark sword blade became gleaming after being coated with this layer of metal sharpening agent, reflecting the icy cold light.

Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Xi Wei waited patiently for ten minutes. When the thin layer of alloy solidified completely, he announced the end of the experiment.

Natalia picked up the two long swords again. She took a deep breath and walked to the wild boar.

She started to exert force, but with just a little force, the sword in her left hand penetrated deeply into the thick boar skin like soft tofu!

At this time, the other unprocessed sword only had a sharp edge.

"Oh!" There was an exclamation in the blacksmith shop.

With the strength of Natalia's fifth-level bloodline knight, this level of controlling the balance of the two forces is of course as easy as breathing, but such a huge change has occurred!

Natalia looked at the gray vial in Xi Wei's hand with burning eyes, as if looking at some rare treasure.

Xi Wei just absorbed a little bit of the sharpening agent. This bottle can process at least a hundred swords!

Xi Wei quickly put the gray vial into the astral space.

Seeing that the eldest lady was unhappy, he quickly reminded: "Sorry, if it is left outside, this bottle of sharpening agent will solidify quickly! Then it will completely lose its due value!"

"Great! Xi Wei, your metal sharpener is really powerful! I have decided to start processing all the swords of all the soldiers under Bonaparte's command from today!" Natalia agreed.

"Miss, with my ability, I can only process one bottle of metal sharpening agent a week! What's more, this sharpening agent only improves the sharpness of the sword blade, and the material of the sword itself has not been improved! You know? There's no need to be so excited!" Xi Wei quickly dissuaded him.

Sylvie had no intention of becoming a forging master for the Bonaparte family, so he quickly refused.
