Versatile Mage: Ten Thousand Fires Surrender

Chapter 180
In the empty forging room, Ling Xiuyuan was standing in front of the forging table, concentrating on making a magic tool.

This forging room was applied to the Pearl Mage Association after he obtained the blacksmithing master certificate, and it was his exclusive forging room.

But because he had just applied for this forging room, he set off to the imperial capital to participate in an exchange at a school. As a result, this forging room had almost no other things except the necessary workbench and forging tools.

Not long after, a crisp "click" sounded in the silent forging room. Following the crisp sound, Ling Xiuyuan took a long breath and finally finished it...

Looking at the silver bracelet on the forging table, Ling Xiuyuan reached out to pick it up and looked it over carefully.

This is a bracelet with a style that is biased towards women. The bracelet is inlaid with a few crystals. As the viewing angle is deflected, the light reflected by the crystals is like a river of stars, which makes people intoxicated.

Of course, this bracelet is certainly not a fake. It is a serious magic tool, and it is a new magic tool that Ling Xiuyuan spent a month developing.

The reason why this bracelet is so beautiful is that Ling Xiuyuan intends to put this bracelet at an auction. Women's magic tools, especially good-looking women's magic tools, are easier to sell at high prices.

Ling Xiuyuan put the bracelet on his right wrist, extracted some non-attribute magic energy from his summoning nebula, and injected it into the magic equipment on his wrist.

With the infusion of magic energy, the spar inlaid on this bracelet lighted slightly, and a breeze was blown out of nowhere in the empty forging room.

Looking carefully, Ling Xiuyuan's right hand wearing the bracelet has a white air current wrapped around it, which looks quite miraculous.

Ling Xiuyuan turned his wrist and moved his palm again, no matter whether he clenched his fist or swung his arm, it was not affected in the slightest.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up a leg bone of the one-eyed demon wolf that he had already prepared from the side, and swung it fiercely towards the leg bone with the hand wrapped around the air current in the shape of a knife.

As Ling Xiuyuan swung his right hand down, the demon's leg bone was sliced ​​into two pieces, and the fracture was full of irregular and fine cuts.

Ling Xiuyuan put the fracture in front of his eyes, and nodded in satisfaction. This magic tool is considered complete.

For the group in Jinlin City, after Ling Xiuyuan returned with the rest of the group, he reported the experience of the group to the academy.

Because the nature of this incident was too bad, they have been interrogated many times by organizations such as the school, the mage association, the guardians, the court, etc., and were even restricted from moving, and were only allowed to stay in the school. Cultivation, not allowed to go out privately.

Due to Ling Xiuyuan's status as a judge and the fact that someone guarantors him, he can have a wider range of activities, but only within the Demon City.

Ling Xiuyuan also didn't want to make more troubles. After all, after this encounter, his true cultivation was completely hidden and known by many forces.

If it weren't for these forces, he would have been busy investigating the problems of Lu Nian and others first, he would not be so idle during this time, and would definitely be busy dealing with the solicitations of various forces.

Even so, in the past month, when the various forces conducted routine interrogation of Ling Xiuyuan, they would show their intention to solicit him from time to time.

Therefore, Ling Xiuyuan behaved extremely low-key this month.

In addition to dealing with the routine questioning and solicitation of various forces, he practiced at school and at home, or went to the Mage Association to find Huo Tuo, learn new forging knowledge, and occasionally develop new magic tools by himself.

This bracelet is the result of his past month.

This newly developed magic tool is only at the spiritual level, and it is a close-combat magic tool. The principle is to wrap the high-speed airflow around the hand, so that every time the wearer swings the hand, there will be additional tearing and destructive force of the strong wind. .

Compared with other spirit-level magic tools, its power is a bit stronger, equivalent to the middle-level third-level magic.

The main purpose of this magic tool is different from his previous works, which is more focused on human combat, that is, mage civil war.

Although it can also be used to deal with monsters in close quarters, but the mage's physical fitness is not as good as that of monsters. If he rushes to fight in close quarters rashly, he is purely looking for death.

From the very beginning, Ling Xiuyuan knew that his close combat skills were still a little lacking.

Originally, he was not good at using various weapons, so he developed the hand armor.

But only the hand armor is far from meeting his requirements. He has not learned any bunting techniques, he can only swing a set of eight punches, and usually he can only press people with force.

But when encountering an opponent like a gravesmith who is proficient in melee combat, he will be suppressed in every way in terms of skills, unable to use his strength, and fight very aggrieved.

At the beginning, his idea was to transform the opponent's armor into a different fire weapon, and by switching the different fires in it, he could exert different effects and enrich his means.

However, halfway through the weapons research, he was stumped by a problem, he was out of money!
The rest of the money is for him to use for his own cultivation or to purchase various resources. Cultivation is his foundation. He cannot put the cart before the horse and use the money used to purchase cultivation resources to develop a weapon.

So, after returning from Jinlin City, he planned to use his spare time to make something that could be sold for money.

In the end, he used the leftovers from making weapons for himself, and some leftover materials from the last time he made stockings, combined with some techniques he used to make hand armors, to make the current magical equipment, which was used to hang up the auction house to withdraw funds .

He took off the bracelet, picked up the wooden box on the side, packed it, walked out of his forging room, came to the door of another adjacent forging room, and pushed the door straight in.

Walking into the forging room, he didn't even look at the scene inside, and shouted directly: "Master, I made another new type of magic tool, please give it a taste!"

When he saw the situation in the room clearly, he quickly said in a somewhat embarrassing manner: "Uh...you have guests...sorry, I'll come back later!"

In the room, Huo Tuo was standing side by side with a dark-faced old man in front of the workbench. They were pointing at something on the workbench and discussing something with each other. When they heard his shout, they all turned their heads and looked over.

The black-faced old man glanced at Ling Xiuyuan, turned his head and smiled at Huo Tuo, "Old guy, this is the proud disciple you have been bragging about, the most talented student who obtained the master forging certificate at a young age, right?"

Huo Tuo gave a soft "hmm" and said flatly, "It's this scoundrel who, after getting the master forging certificate, started to spend all day without doing business, making a lot of weird things."

"Hey~ Everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous..." The black-faced old man laughed.

Huo Tuo snorted coldly, looked at Ling Xiuyuan and said coldly, "What crap did you make again this time? Let's take a look!"

Ling Xiuyuan shrank his neck, stepped forward quickly, and handed over the wooden box in his hand.

Huo Tuo took the wooden box, opened it and took a look inside. He only glanced at it, and said with a cold snort, "Hmph...it's such a flashy thing again!"

Ling Xiuyuan didn't dare to talk back, he just responded with a smirk.

The black-faced old man laughed "hehe" and said, "Why can't you change your temper after so many years? I think this magic tool is just as good as it looks!"

Then, he turned his head to look at Ling Xiuyuan, and asked with a smile: "Little guy, this magic tool is so beautifully made, is it for a girlfriend?"

"Where did I get a girlfriend..." Ling Xiuyuan smiled wryly.

He glanced quietly at Huo Tuo before replying, "This... is actually going to be hung in the auction house."

"You should also know that women and children earn the most money. If I make the magic equipment more beautiful, maybe some rich woman will take a fancy to it and buy it at a high price!"

After hearing what Ling Xiuyuan said, the black-faced old man not only laughed.

"Hahahaha... so..."

"Hmph! Crooked ways..." Huo Tuo, who was at the side, glared at him and said angrily.

The black-faced old man had had enough of laughing, so he looked at Ling Xiuyuan with interest, and said curiously: "Boy, do you have any interesting works, let's take a look together."

Ling Xiuyuan grinned, and the remaining ones were interesting, but not suitable for showing them in front of outsiders. They were stockings and handcuffs, which made people feel that they were not serious at first glance.

"Okay!" Huo Tuo snorted coldly, threw the wooden box in Ling Xiuyuan's arms casually, and said in a cold voice: "The things are barely qualified, but I always feel that the technology used here has a kind of It feels half-baked."

Ling Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Master Mingjian, the technology used here is indeed not yet developed and perfected!"

"Heh!" Huo Tuo sneered.

"Don't think that if you flatter me, I won't scold you. Now that there are outsiders here, I'll save you some face. Look back and see how I deal with you!"

"Ahaha..." Ling Xiuyuan smiled awkwardly, and felt empty in his arms before he could reply.

Looking back, it turned out that the black-faced old man took the wooden box into his hands while the two were talking.

The black-faced old man opened the wooden box, put the bracelet in his palm, and looked it over carefully.

After a while, he glanced at Ling Xiuyuan in amazement, turned his head and scolded Huo Tuo with a smile: "You old bastard, you made this thing worthless, which made me think it was really bad... ..."

"Whether in terms of material processing or production techniques, this thing can be called a boutique!"

"You... you're being nice even if you're getting cheap!"

He turned to look at Ling Xiuyuan and asked, "Boy, does this magic item have a name?"

"Tear..." Ling Xiuyuan only said one word, quickly stopped talking, and changed his words: "Fengyu, it's called Fengyu."

In fact, he wanted to say Wind Tearing Hand at first, and the name was taken from Dou Pozhong, the fighting skill of Misty Cloud Sect - Great Compassion Wind Tearing Hand.

But then I thought it was wrong, this thing was a piece of jewelry, and it was sold to a female mage, so the name didn't seem to match its appearance, so I quickly changed it to Fengyu.

The black-faced old man didn't care about the pause in his words, but just praised: "Good name."

Then, he began to pour magic energy into the magic tool, intending to try the effect of this magic tool.

"Huh!" He gasped in surprise, and looked at the magic tool in his hand strangely. No matter how he poured magic energy into the magic tool, the magic tool didn't move at all, as if it was just an ordinary ornament.

He turned his head to look at Ling Xiuyuan and asked, "Is there any restriction on this magic tool?"

"Not really." Ling Xiuyuan shook his head.

"However, this magic tool has requirements on the attributes of the user. Only by pouring in the magic energy of the wind system can this magic tool be activated, or the non-attribute magic energy of the summoning system mage."

"Moreover, if non-attribute magic energy is poured in, it will also have a certain impact on the power of the magic equipment. In other words, this thing can almost be said to be exclusive to wind mages."

Hearing Ling Xiuyuan's words, the black-faced old man said with some disappointment: "In this case, the value of this magic tool will be slightly reduced!"

Ling Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly.

"That's it. The technology used here is still very immature. One of the shortcomings is that it can only accept the input of magic energy of the same system or non-attribute magic energy. Therefore, I can only work on the appearance and improve its value from other aspects. .”

"I see." The black-faced old man suddenly nodded.

He put the magic tool in his hand back into the wooden box and handed it back to Ling Xiuyuan.

"At your age, it is already a remarkable thing to develop magic equipment technology alone and develop it to this level. Back then, your master and I had just passed the official blacksmith qualification when you were your age! "

Ling Xiuyuan took the wooden box with both hands, smiled and nodded.

"Heh, this kid can't help boasting, his tail can go straight up to the sky!" Huo Tuo said suddenly.

"Hehe..." The black-faced old man shook his head and smiled, he turned to Huo Tuo and said, "As a disciple of yours, you are already qualified to participate in that party, so you can bring him with you at the next party! "

"Just him? It's not enough to embarrass me!" Huo Tuo gave Ling Xiuyuan a sidelong glance.

The black-faced old man scolded with a smile: "You old bastard, you are so good at getting cheap. If I have such a disciple, I can wake up from my dreams with a smile on my face."

He asked jokingly: "Why don't you give this disciple to me?"

Huo Tuo suddenly lost his temper and stopped talking.

The black-faced old man shook his head and smiled, expressing his intention to leave.

"Okay, let's stop here today, see you at the next meeting, remember to bring your precious apprentice!"

After the black-faced old man left, Ling Xiuyuan asked Huo Tuo, "Master, who was that person just now, and what is the party?"

The black-faced old man was not there, but Huo Tuo's attitude slowed down a little. He said slowly, "The old man is a blacksmith who is as famous as me, and he mainly works in the demon capital."

"And that gathering was an event spontaneously organized by us master blacksmiths, mainly for the purpose of exchanging technology with each other. At that time, almost all famous blacksmith masters in the country will go to participate."

"Ah?" Ling Xiuyuan asked tentatively, "Then...is it right for me to go to this party?"

"Go!" Huo Tuo replied without thinking.

"You are already a blacksmith master now. Ordinary blacksmith competitions and exchange meetings are not suitable for you. If you go to those places, it will be no different from smashing the field."

"Now it's suitable for you, a high-end competition with the participation of blacksmith masters, but this kind of competition is more difficult to meet."

"Let you and I go to the party first, and go see the world!"

Seeing that Ling Xiuyuan was still here after he finished speaking, Huo Tuo hurriedly waved him away.

"Go, go, don't hinder me here, do whatever you want!"

Seeing Huo Tuo chasing people away, Ling Xiuyuan shrugged his shoulders, turned around and left the house, preparing to go to the auction house to consign and sell his magic tools.
