He was born as a blacksmith, but he dominated the world

Chapter 59 New Skills

"No more?" Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment, then he understood what he meant and asked, "Is it because I can't light the fire for you during the regular test?"

"Of course not." Zhao Yankui shook his head and said, "Since it is a regular test, it is naturally a test of the blacksmith's own skills. If someone else does it, wouldn't it be unfair?"

"But it's not fair to take the regular test with the lower eighth grade ironware." Jiang Lin said.

“Well…” Zhao Yankui laughed dryly and said, “Iron tools are iron tools. Anyway, it is still a test if you can use it yourself.”

Jiang Lin wanted to say something, but Zhao Yankui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, even if you can't get the Tiger Soul Pill this time, I can still get you a few more Qi and Blood Pills. As for forging a high-grade weapon, I'll call Master Qi and the others to discuss it tomorrow."

Jiang Lin nodded and watched Zhao Yankui leave.

No one is allowed to help during the regular tests.

It makes sense when you think about it, but Jiang Lin was not discouraged.

Rules are made by people, and since they can be made, they can be changed.

He has decided to get the Tiger Soul Pill!
After cleaning the furnace, Jiang Lin closed the furnace door and walked to a corner of the blacksmith shop.

Piled here are weapons made for other armies, including swords, guns, sticks and clubs.

Jiang Lin bent down and picked up a longbow and an arrow.

It was an ordinary stone bow. He pinched the bowstring with two fingers, applied light force, and pulled it to a full moon.

There is no challenge at all, and the strength is not at the same level as the Eight Stone Bow.

His fingers loosened, and the arrow made a whoosh sound and shot towards the straw target in front.

Unfortunately, it missed the target.

But the corners of Jiang Lin's mouth slightly raised.

[Skill 4: Archery Lv1 (Proficiency 2/30)]

[Skill 6: Level 1 arrow hits the target, increases accuracy by %]

New techniques, new skills!
As early as when he was in the Nanling camp, Jiang Lin discovered that he had new information, but he never made it public.

This was the first time that I had acquired a skill that could be used for combat, which meant that in this world, besides being able to make a living by relying on my skills, I could actually make a living!
However, Jiang Lin did not plan to spend too much time on archery skills. At present, there was not much danger in the Blacksmith Camp.

Even if you have extraordinary archery skills, you can't really use them. It's better to spend more time improving other skills.

For example, for hammering, before the regular test, Jiang Lin plans to upgrade it to level 7, and quenching should be upgraded to level 6 at best, and there is still the blade sharpening technique that he has not yet learned.

There are still eight days left until the regular test, which doesn’t seem like a lot of time.

After putting down the bow and arrow, Jiang Lin turned and left the blacksmith shop.

The next day.

Zhao Yankui brought together Jiang Lin, Qi the blacksmith, and two other skilled veteran blacksmiths, and stated that he wanted to form a team that specialized in making high-quality weapons, to ensure that every weapon was of good quality as much as possible.

When these words were spoken, Qi the Blacksmith and the others were stunned.

It is not difficult to understand how to form a team with high skills, as several other blacksmith camps have already done so.

But there are so many people, even if a few outstanding ones are picked out, it will not affect the overall situation.

There are already few people in the Southern Blacksmith Camp. If another group of people is transferred away, the remaining people will be under even greater pressure.

Besides, isn't it nonsense to guarantee that every weapon can be made into a good quality weapon? Just because your master can make an eighth-grade iron weapon doesn't mean we can!
"Master, I'm not trying to belittle myself, but I don't have the ability to forge high-quality iron with ordinary iron." Qi the blacksmith said, and the other two quickly agreed, saying that they couldn't do it either.

Zhao Yankui had expected them to say this, and laughed: "Jiang Lin, it's your turn."

Jiang Lin hummed, took out three pieces of iron, and said, "Please ask the three masters to test whether there is any difference between these pieces of iron."

Qi the blacksmith and the others took it and read it over and over again, their faces full of confusion.

It's just ordinary pig iron, nothing special.

Jiang Lin took the three pieces of pig iron and then started the furnace to calcine them.

After a moment, he took it back with the tongs and said, "Please three masters, start hammering. Knives, guns, sticks, or clubs are all fine."

"Jiang Lin, what exactly are you going to do?" Blacksmith Qi couldn't help but ask.

"You'll understand after Master Qi finishes forging the sword." Jiang Lin said with a faint smile.

Qi the blacksmith and others were confused and could only look at Zhao Yankui. When they saw the master chef nod, they reluctantly took the pig iron and started hammering it.

"Huh." Blacksmith Qi felt something different after just a few strikes with the hammer. The quality of this piece of iron seemed to be quite high?
He subconsciously glanced at the other two people, only to see that they had the same expression.

Blacksmith Qi was still confused. They had tested the three pieces of pig iron one by one and found nothing special about them. How could the quality be improved?

Could it be that……

Looking up at the young apprentice who was standing shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Yankui but was about to surpass him, Blacksmith Qi had a guess in his mind that he didn't quite dare to believe.

He did not ask immediately, but instead mustered his strength and continued to hammer the pig iron in front of him.

Accompanied by the rhythmic sound of jingling, soon after, the three people's training was completed one after another.

All three of them chose to make the most convenient and familiar long sword.

Qi the blacksmith was the fastest. After the long sword was reheated, he put it into water to quench it.

When the time came, he picked it up and took a look at it. The shiny black blade made Qi the blacksmith stunned.

"Is it qualified?"

The other two people hadn't had time to react yet, and they looked over immediately after hearing it.

“It’s really good!”

"Master Qi's skills have also improved?"

Blacksmith Qi glanced at the master and disciple who were smiling faintly, and his guess in his mind was almost confirmed.

Although he felt it was a bit shocking, he still suppressed the excitement in his heart that he could hardly conceal, and said to the other two: "You guys try quenching it too."

The two men seemed to have guessed something and quickly tempered their swords.

The final result surprised them.

The long swords made by the three men had shiny black surfaces, which were obvious features of high-quality goods.

"Master, Jiang Lin, this..."

Zhao Yankui laughed loudly, his voice was as loud as a bell, deafening: "From today on, who dares to look down on my Southern Blacksmith Camp!"
