Conan: Developing business in Kexue World

Chapter 97 The Dark Chaser

"Well, I actually have a solution." A voice suddenly came from behind.

The two drew their weapons and turned their heads quickly.

The visitor quickly raised his hands to indicate that he was not in danger.

The visitor introduced: "Hi, you two Gaowan, I am a blacksmith. In fact, I was the one who posted that post. Once I was blown by a giant dragon to the underground of its lair, and Silk Blood survived. I found there this ore."

"Unfortunately, I searched for a long time, but I couldn't find a way out. I was trampled to death by the giant dragon that returned the next day."

Kenta put away the long sword and said: "That is to say, you haven't had time to forge weapons with ore, how do you know you can forge top-level weapons?"

The visitor said: "Oh, I'm a blacksmith. Of course, you can judge the strength of the weapon it forges based on its fineness."

Yuanzi said: "Your post should have been out for a long time, how come you mean, haven't you got that kind of ore yet?"

The visitor said: "Although after posting the post, some guilds in the front row have come here many times to fight, but unfortunately there are too many of them. I am afraid that after I reveal the news, there will be no soup to drink. So they all stay far away. In the back, wait for them to go far before exploring on your own."

Since the official involvement in currency transactions, there have been more and more professions for blacksmiths. After all, this game is called Sword Art Online, and people use swords the most. Although there are weapons such as claws and bows, they are very unpopular.Most of these weapons made by blacksmiths can be sold for a good price.

Because short weapons require agility and dance on the tip of the knife, not many players play it. After all, the death penalty of the game is still very heavy.

The lack of bows and arrows is due to the need for a lot of learning costs. If you are not a real archer, it is easy to accidentally injure your teammates in the game, so there are very few archers in the game.

The visitor took out a large bundle of ropes and said, "Unfortunately, the previous two times, due to lack of preparation, the ropes did not reach the bottom, so they could only end themselves in the hole. This time I have prepared several bundles of such ropes, and I will definitely reach the bottom." At the bottom. At that time, you can share some of the ore with me, of course I can build weapons for you for free."

Kenta nodded, approving what he said, "What's your name?"

"Excuse me, my name is Bet."

"Okay, Bet, let's go down, it's too cold here."

Bate tied the rope to the bottom of the huge crystal pillar where the giant fell just now. Although the crystal tip was broken, the bottom was still very tough.

The three of them went down to the bottom of the cave one by one. Bette came to a place with ease, turned around in the snow for a while, took out a huge crystal stone, and handed it to Kenta. It seems that he did not lie, he was sure Been down a few times.

Kenta took it, and the crystal block was in the shape of a cone. Of course, it was a cone with lines, corners, and a flat head. It had a translucent color, a beautiful light sky blue.

He exhaled the system, and the item was displayed as a crystal quartz ingot, "Is this the metal block that can be forged into a top-level weapon? There is nothing special about it."

Sonoko took it curiously, and looked through it in his hand.

"Oh, my master, you are not a blacksmith, so of course you don't see anything special about it. When I return to my workshop, I will definitely use it to make you a top-notch weapon." Bate slapped his chest loudly. rattle.

Yuanzi held the crystal and asked curiously, "Is this the one? But why is it at the bottom of the cave?"

Kenta looked around and said: "This should be the dragon's nest of the giant dragon. Large animals have the habit of eating stones to increase their digestion. This should be the dragon eating the crystal mines outside the cave. After eating it, refine it in the stomach. In other words, this cast iron block is actually the excrement of the dragon."

Sonoko looked at Kenta, then stared at the crystal block in her hand, back and forth twice, she threw the crystal block out with a single movement of her hand.

Kenta took it and laughed.

Yuanzi was annoyed, rushed over and hammered him several times.

Kenta's blood volume dropped, and he was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Sonoko's hand.

Bate had collected enough ore at this time, he said: "The relationship between the president and his wife is so good."

Yuanzi stopped playing and asked, "You know us."

"Oh, of course. We players have watched the press conference several times. You and that Elf lady are our game board girls. Who wouldn't recognize it?"

Kenta said: "Have you collected it? Let's go back."

After speaking, he took out the transfer crystal and shouted: "Transfer, go back to the main city!" The transfer crystal flashed, but it didn't work.

Bate said at this time: "We still have to climb out, this is the crystal restricted area."

"Then crawl slowly." Sonoko stuck out her tongue cutely.

He took a run-up around the cave, jumped hard, and ran on the wall. After a loud noise, he finally jumped hard, grabbed the edge of the cave with his right hand, and turned ashore.

Afterwards, Yuanzi poked his head out and said loudly, "Come on, Kirito-kun."

Kenta's in-game ID is Kirito, and he used this in a fit of anger.And Yuanzi's game ID is Serena, because her English translation is Serena Sebastian (Serena Sebastian).

But afterwards, Kenta regretted it very much. Every time he called himself this name in front of others, he felt a sense of death.

Kenta shouted towards the garden on the top of the cave: "Stop shouting, Serena."

Bate on the side was still sighing, "As expected of a cat demon, the racial talent is too strong. I can run on such a steep rock wall. When I fell down last time, I also thought about running up it in this way. It's a pity Only ran a few meters before falling."

"Don't be emotional, let's climb up." After Kenta finished speaking, he pulled the rope beside him and climbed up.

After a while, the two came up.

Bate said: "My workshop is on the 48th floor. There are waterways and windmills there. It is a good place for a blacksmith workshop. Let's go there together."

Kenta and Sonoko nodded, and the three of them took out the transfer crystal, "Transfer, Linda Si!"*3
The 48th floor is a place like a medieval village in Europe, where the main urban area is full of cities, and the streets are covered with waterways.Out of the main urban area, there is a piece of countryside, where there are many small houses, large and small, and there is a huge gear outside each house.

The people here make the best use of water power, including water-driven barrel carts, water-driven water mills, and water-driven water drains, etc. There are the most private blacksmith workshops in SAO.

Both drum car and water mill are easy to understand. Water drain is a hydraulically driven air blowing device. It is mainly used to blow air to the coal pile to speed up the combustion of coal and improve the combustion efficiency during iron smelting, thereby improving the smelting furnace. temperature.

Bate led the way and led Kenta and Sonoko to his workshop.He also has these devices, and he has also modified a water-powered sharpening disc for sharpening swords.

Come to the side of the water raft, there is a huge iron furnace inside, Bate added the metal he found from the dragon's nest into the furnace.

Waiting for the iron block to turn red, he clamped the iron block out, placed it on the huge anvil, raised his head and asked, "A one-handed sword will do."

Kenta nodded.

Bate swung the hammer on the anvil and smashed it. After a while, under the guidance of the system, a slender one-handed sword appeared with a light sky blue color.

There are two forging methods in the game, one is just like in reality, from a piece of iron, slowly knock it into a sword shape, then sharpen it, hit the hilt and scabbard, this kind is generally a sword in reality A favorite of those with casting experience.The other is a long sword like Bate made according to the guidance of the system.

The former does not require in-game proficiency, and can also make top-level famous swords, while the latter is slowly accumulating from ordinary short swords, so as to become a legendary blacksmith who can forge top-level famous swords.It is hard to judge which of these two methods is stronger or weaker.

Bate glanced at the item list that popped up, and said, "The name of the sword is Dark Chaser. This is the first time I have seen this kind of weapon, and it is not even in the illustrated book of the information dealer. Sure enough, I knew that this metal must be Can create top-level equipment.”

Kenta picked up the long sword, waved it in the air, and pulled two light blue sword lights in the air.

Bate asked, "Why?"

Kenta replied: "It's so heavy, it's a good sword."

Bate smiled, "Thank you, I hope this sword can help you on your journey."

He asked Yuanzi again, "How is it? Would you like a pair of claws, Mr. President?"

Yuanzi was a little moved, but when he thought of the source of this metal and thought of wearing it on his hands, he suddenly lost interest and refused: "No need. Well, since you have paid the reward, the rest of the metal will be handed over to you." Here you go. Let's take our leave."

Kenta nodded and followed Sonoko.

Behind him, Bate said: "If you get rare ores in the future, welcome to Bate's blacksmith workshop. The top blacksmith Bate will sincerely serve you. But next time, you will have to pay for the crafting fee."

"Understood." Kenta raised his hand and waved.

Leaving from the blacksmith workshop, the two found monsters in the wild and tried it. It was indeed a good sword. Cutting monsters was like cutting melons, but it was a bit heavy. It should be upgraded a few more levels, and the power can be used with arms.

Checking the time, it was getting late, the two of them took out the teleportation crystal and returned to the hut in the forest. It is good to have a house, and they can be directly teleported back to the house.

The two quit the game, it was already dark outside, and the girl came back and was cooking dinner.

The two came to the kitchen and waited for the food to be served.

Today Sakurako Yonehara cooks classic Japanese food, including eel rice, miso soup, tempura, and the last main dish is sukiyaki. You can add a lot of things to cook in the pot. With the bowl of aseptic eggs, the taste A must.

The host and guest enjoyed a meal, Kenta wiped his mouth and asked: "When you came back today, you were not here, where did you go?"

The maid faltered.

Kenta looked at it and said, "It's okay, I'll just ask casually."

　Sorry about that
