I, Stone Golem, only want to forge.

In the flash of light, Murphy etched the final stroke and then coated it with the liquid.

A notification suddenly popped up in front of it.

Forging complete.

[Lightning Longsword]

[Level: Excellent]

[Quality: Perfect]

【Effects: Hard, sharp, fast, durable, corrosion resistant】

[Additional Attribute: Lightning (When off, the longsword will automatically store lightning; when on, it can be used for up to two hours.)]

[Usage restrictions: Strength 20 or higher, Agility 15 or higher.]

……

After Murphy confirmed that the attributes were correct, he handed the weapon to Will.

"Grip the sword hilt, and with your mind you say 'open,' it can generate electricity."

After giving its instructions, it picked up a few planks and began making a sword case.

Of course, while it's called a sword case, it's actually a charging station or something similar that speeds up the charging process.

Will immediately grinned, took the longsword, then slightly distanced himself from the others and waved it around in his hand.

However, because of his injuries, he dared not move too forcefully.

He only unleashed a few sword energies, which quickly dissipated in the air.

Then he silently recited "start" in his mind.

The longsword immediately emitted wisps of lightning, and with a crackling and flashing motion, the sword shadows danced once more.

Lightning bolts spread out again along the sword energy!

The light was dazzling, and the air smelled slightly burnt.

"oh!"

Will's mouth gaped open like an egg, and he let out a few strange cries.

Then he coughed a few times, forcibly suppressing his smile.

With a crooked expression, he strode up to Roy and the ranger, and brandished his longsword.

With a slight brow raise and a thought, lightning crackled and sparked from the sword once more.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" he asked.

Roy's lips twitched, he leaned back, his brows furrowed, and waved at Will as if he were looking at an idiot.

"Get lost."

"Ugh, no taste at all."

When people are in a good mood, they are in high spirits, and Will was in a good mood at the moment, so he naturally wouldn't stoop to the level of this person.

He happily grabbed his sword and ran out of the cave to wander around.

Then another strange cry rang out, mixed with the thunderous roar of swords.

Murphy, however, had his attention elsewhere.

It was somewhat curious about what that sword energy was.

So he asked the two people next to him.

"What was that gust of air?"

"Oh, that's sword energy, a passive ability of high-ranking knights."

Fina began to explain, and then added a sentence.

"However, I'm not a knight, so I don't know the specifics."

"Where does the sword energy come from?"

Murphy was concerned with why humans could unleash sword energy, or more precisely, what the essence of sword energy was.

It felt that understanding this would be helpful for its future forging.

"I'm not really sure about this either..."

Fina thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, so she could only awkwardly utter a few words.

"It should be... the internal energy being released outwards."

Ella hesitated for a moment before saying that she had worked at the Vatican for so long that she must have some understanding of different professions.

Murphy paused for a moment upon hearing this, then fell into deep thought.

(-_-) Thinking.ing

The stone spun for a long time, and finally, it slowly uttered a few words.

"Like farting?"

"ha?"

Ella exclaimed in surprise, not expecting Murphy to come up with this sentence after holding it in for so long.

But after thinking about it for a while, she realized that what Murphy said seemed to be... in some ways, it was true.

After all, this is someone who can carve runes as easily as drinking water; they wouldn't just make things up, would they?

So she started to think about it more carefully, following this idea.

"The qi is different, isn't it? One is waste gas, and the other is blood qi."

Fina rolled her eyes at Ella, then gave her a helpless reminder.

"For most of us humans, the entry-level non-magical professions require training ourselves through something called breathing techniques to convert food and magic into the vital energy within our bodies."

After hearing this explanation, Murphy seemed thoughtful, and then asked:

Is the essence of Qi and blood vitality?

"You actually knew that... Ah, well, you are capable of making that kind of potion."

Fina was surprised for a moment, then realized that the medicine they drank for treatment was made by Murphy, so it was normal for her to think of that.

So he smiled gently.

"Broadly speaking, anything produced by living things can be said to be related to life force."

Murphy nodded in sudden realization.

If Fina is right

The path of transforming matter and magic into life force and then releasing it outward is entirely possible.

Why is it thinking about this?

The answer is simple: it is thinking about the order Gobru gave it.

Goblu gave it two requirements:

One is a farming implement, and the other is a fertilizer-producing device.

The former is easy for it; the latter is the main challenge.

The fertilizer in the magical world isn't nitrogen, phosphorus, or potassium; it's life force!

When decaying matter is buried directly in the soil, it will be lost for various reasons during the process of transforming into life force.

For example, magic dissipates easily, and the environment changes, leaving only 1/10.

That's why Gorub commissioned Murphy to build a fertilizer-producing device to reduce these losses.

Murphy's original plan was to compress the decaying matter, convert the living moss directly into life force, and then inject it into the water magic.

Then, when watering, the vitality and nutrients needed by the plant are directly transferred to the plant.

But this raises a problem.

High wear and tear! Also requires a large area!

Although the damage is definitely much less than that from direct burial.

However, regardless of the circumstances, although the moss itself does not absorb much life force, it will still absorb some, which is a loss.

Another factor is that when life force is injected into water magic, a loss will also occur.

When water is sprinkled on plants, some may be lost through evaporation, which is another form of loss.

With triple losses, only 50-60% of their vitality remains.

But these losses are actually not a big deal.

More importantly, it has a large footprint!

For every square meter of other crops planted, two to three square meters of moss might be needed as a converter.

Even with a frame added for vertical cultivation of moss, the area it occupies is still considerable!

So, thinking about it this way, was Murphy's previous method effective?

The answer is yes.

But will it satisfy Murphy?

Obviously not!

Murphy is a craftsman who has very high standards for himself!

Moreover, as a stone man, he also possesses the greatest characteristic of stone men—stubbornness!

He absolutely could not accept that he had produced such a perfunctory product!

But what Fina had just mentioned gave him some ideas.

Those knights, boxers, and monks in the fragments of memory are all beings capable of moving mountains and filling seas.

Such a small size, yet it can generate so much vitality.

It believed that as long as it could figure out how the human body transforms food and magic into life force.

The same method could be used to transform decay and magic into life force.

However, the first thing it needs to do is to obtain that so-called breathing method.

Let's investigate the nature of that thing.

Murphy pondered for a moment before asking the two of them.

"Can you sell me that breathing technique?"

Fina and Ella were both taken aback and looked Murphy's stone body up and down.

They couldn't find Murphy's breathing hole for ages. If he couldn't breathe, what was the point of having a breathing technique?

Ella pinched her pointed ears, after all, the person in front of her was a master who could use runes at will.

It probably has its own purpose!

Unlike Fina, she wasn't puzzled and spoke directly.

"Many breathing techniques are passed down within aristocratic families, so it might be difficult for them to sell their own breathing techniques to you."

However, Will probably has some other breathing techniques elsewhere, which you can use if you wish.

Ella glanced back at Will, who was swinging his sword like a fool.

She knew that the three pamphlets Roy gave Murphy were nothing compared to a single bandage on that sword.

They consider themselves to be of a fairly high moral standard.

It will definitely cost extra, so using several breathing techniques to add to the cost is a win-win situation.

"Will, Master Murphy said he wants to buy a few books on breathing techniques from you!"

Ella shouted.

Upon hearing this, Will, who was some distance away, immediately turned around and shouted without hesitation:

"Sell it my ass, give it away!"
