Chapter 369
…
Time flies by.
Starting from this Sunday, Dak officially started his journey of learning wood carving.
Starting from the most basic material identification and familiarity with tools and application, he gradually became addicted to it.
Boys seem to have a natural interest in this type of manual work.
The feeling of creating a work of art from one's own hands will make people unable to stop.
And under his deliberate indulgence, "greed" is steadily growing.
However, nothing can be accomplished overnight.
After a whole day.
Apart from adding a few more rags to the dormitory, he had no results.
But at night, he suddenly remembered something and summoned "Meow Meow"!
As a result, "Meow Meow" came first and showed what a "technical expert" is on the spot.
Just half an hour later, "Meow Meow" mastered various carving tools skillfully, and then carved a vivid fathead fish under the watchful eyes of Dak and other magic elves!
"Meow..."
The finished carving Meow Meow bit the fathead fish and proudly raised his waist.
This round.
Dark Dimon was defeated miserably!
…
"Maybe, this is the true genius?"
[Jealousy +1]
The "big sin" that slowly floated across his vision was the long-lost "jealousy".
Dark suddenly missed it and couldn't help but reach out to touch it.
Of course, he touched nothing.
Afterwards, he looked at Miaomiao, who was showing off with a bighead carp in his mouth, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
But it just lit up and went out again, like scratching his heart, making people want to catch it but unable to catch it.
"What did I think of just now?"
Dark sat down on the spot and pondered hard.
But sometimes, the more you want to remember, the harder it is to grasp the clue.
He was troubled for a whole night, but still didn't catch that flash of inspiration.
…
A new week, accompanied by the sound of Professor Sylph's lecture, opened the curtain.
The tail of Valentine's Day completely disappeared.
The students focused on their studies again.
Dark also regained his daily rhythm.
He reduced the time for learning wood carving and only studied for three hours at night.
Unlike before, every time he returned to the dormitory, he would summon "Meow Meow" and let Impmon and Tailmon, who had the best grasp of words, teach it in turn.
And in the three hours of "wood carving time" every night, he learned carving with it.
Although all the wood carving knowledge that Meow Meow learned was relayed to it by Dark, it was always able to master it very quickly and leave Dark, the owner, far behind.
Dark hadn't felt this way for a long time.
In the field of wood carving, Meow Meow is like a rabbit, and he is the tortoise in the tortoise race.
Only with persistent efforts can you reach the same end as the rabbit.
But sometimes, it is actually a very lucky thing to have a back figure to chase in front of you.
He clearly felt that his learning efficiency was much higher than that on Sunday.
This week has passed.
He has been able to carve a decent human body with a piece of cork.
Although it is still far from "fine", it already has a complete structure.
The proficiency of the technique is also constantly accumulating.
He finally looks like a person who is "playing with carving".
Although Miaomiao's chin is getting higher and higher during this week, he doesn't care.
...
The last Sunday of February.
There are still two days until the end of February.
It's 7:30 in the evening.
Dak looked at the puppet he carved on the table, slowly closed "Vandi's Woodcarving Art", and exhaled.
"In one week, from nothing to something, my progress is actually quite fast. If you don't compare with Miaomiao."
He smiled slightly, then put "Vandi's Woodcarving Art" in the corner, and took out another book related to woodcarving - "Elf Crafts - Wood Carving"!
"In "Vandi's Woodcarving Art", there are many contents about more detailed human body carving, and there are even techniques for softening materials to simulate corresponding parts. But these techniques are not useful to me at the moment."
"After mastering simple human body carving, I can finally start to add "armor" to the outside of the human body, starting with the simplest dress."
"In this regard, "Elf Crafts - Wood Carving" should be able to give me more help."
After Dak turned to the page of "Elf Crafts - Wood Carving" that he needed, he picked up the carving knife again, gestured to the puppet twice, pondered for a while, and finally started.
"Let's carve a small skirt first!"
Chapter 325 Three-in-one Armed Refining (4k)
The reason why Dak started with a small skirt is certainly not because he likes skirts.
He just attaches more importance to his promise.
In the duel with senior Elsie Kevin, he once promised Fairy Eevee that after learning the Armed Refining, he would find a way to make a skirt for it.
Although the Armor Card has limitations when used against Magical Spirits, Dark estimated that with his current level, he could not make a genuine Armor that required a large amount of magic power.
If he could by chance piece together a set of Armor that was slightly more useful than the "Change Outfit Card", he would be very lucky.
In short, since it is just an initial attempt, it actually doesn't matter which kind of weapon you build first.
…
Using a small skirt on "Elf Craft - Wood Carving" as a reference, Duck picked a piece of wood from the material box and started carving.
Carving a small skirt that doesn't require too much detail is actually very difficult.
The main difficulty is centered on the internal hollowing out.
For beginners, there are two levels of difficulty for exterior carving and interior carving.
But Dake had an idea as early as when he was learning human body sculpting.
Things like this that require hollowing out the interior to carve can be simplified by using a "modular" approach.
In other words, a small skirt is divided into two or four parts, leaving a structure that can be assembled at the contact points of each part.
After all the parts are carved and put together, you will have a complete skirt!
In this way, "internal carving" can be avoided.
Moreover, this is also the prototype of the armor making method.
It took nearly an hour for Duck to finally carve this little skirt.
The skirt uses the template of a lace skirt, but his finished product does not have lace...
Anyway, let’s move on to carving the vest and bracelets.
Because the puppet as the model is about 30 centimeters tall, the matching skirt, vest and bracelets are also small.
When it was almost nine o'clock, Duck thought for a moment and added a sun hat.
Finally, put the sun hat on the puppet's head, and the whole dress is completed!
Although it is not painted, it looks quite similar.
Duck looked up at the time.
"Nine-thirty...there's still plenty left."
So he put away the remaining tools and materials used for carving, and prepared to make his first attempt at "refining three-in-one weapons"!
…
The three-in-one armed formation formation created by Arvite emphasizes the three-in-one of mind, magic power and weaponry. Clothes or weapons must be hand-made before they can be refined into an armed card.
However, there are no requirements for the specific specifications of clothing or weapons.
Only weapons that have been successfully refined can only float within a small range of sizes, except for some special types.
Therefore, even if the dress in Dak's hands is successfully made into an armed card, it cannot be worn on Fairy Eevee yet.
But it doesn’t matter, I’ll just make a suitable set later.
…
Armed series magic cards are a branch of prop cards, and equipment cards and weapon cards are also a branch of prop cards.
There are generally two ideas for making this type of magic card.
One is to use magic to refine ready-made props into prop cards.
The other is to use raw materials for direct refining, just like weapon casting!
Dak once used the second method to refine "energy potions", which was to combine the raw materials of energy potions.
The mixed juice of the white nuts and the blue nuts was poured into the No. 3 refining array, and finally the "Energy Potion" card was made.
But Arvette's "Triple Arms Refining" is more inclined to the first idea.
It is refined with ready-made "arms" as the core.
And it is completely different from the orthodox prop card making method in that "three-in-one weapon making" has extremely high requirements on the use of mind and magic power, but has lower requirements on auxiliary materials.
Focusing on self-made weapons.
Use the power of the mind as a melting pot.
Use your own magic as fuel.
The three combined into one is the "three-in-one armed force"!
Conceptually, it feels a bit like the "refining of weapons" in cultivating immortals to Dak, which is a bit incompatible with the style of painting in this world.
Although the "Triple Arms Refining Array" is only the prototype of No. 99 Refining Array, known as the "Arvite Refining Array", the "Triple Arms Refining Method" based on it is already extremely difficult. high.
The quality and mastery of mind and magic are two insurmountable mountains.
According to Duck's understanding.
The difficulty of the "Triple Arms Refining Method" should be between the refining of the "Fusion" card and the refining of the "Zoo" card.
Under normal circumstances, without anyone's guidance, it is actually impossible for him to master the "Three-in-One Arms Refining Method" independently.
Fortunately, this refining method is very compatible with him!
Whether it is his mastery of spiritual power or the quality and quantity of his own magic power, he has a certain degree of confidence.
The only shortcoming is that it is the simplest "self-made weapon" for others.
