Chapter 143 True Strength
Fang Xuande's eyes were bright, but they were rather weird and complicated, as if he wanted to witness a miracle, but also seemed to be worried about something. But Fang Yide's eyes flickered, and when he looked at Ouyang Ming's face, there was a strong hostility in the deepest part of those eyes.
It's just that no one can see this at this time.
Forging an archer suit is an unparalleled event in the Fang family. No matter who is in charge of this matter in the end, the benefits he can obtain are simply unimaginable.
No matter how you look at it, Fang Yide is not willing to let Fang Yihai take the lead in this matter.
That's why he tried every means to win Fang Xuande, the number one forging expert in the family, to oppose this matter.
After all, in order to achieve that ulterior purpose, Fang Yihai dared to talk nonsense, saying that a young boy who was only about sixteen years old could obtain the gift attribute. Don't say whether the news is true or not, even if it is true, so what? If there is no convincing forging ability, how can you place that illusory hope in the hands of a junior?
However, the development of things that followed today seemed to be a bit beyond his expectations.
This kid didn't know what he did during the forging process, so that Fang Xuande was fascinated by it, and his attitude softened accordingly, as if he was not so opposed.
To him, this was bad news like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
Now, his only hope is that this kid doesn't know much about high-quality equipment.
However, when the munitions roared up and completely wrapped the selected fine steel, his heart couldn't help twitching violently a few times. For some reason, he just had a bad premonition.
Turning his head to look at Fang Xuande, he wanted to see a clue from the face of the most powerful blacksmith in the family.
However, Fang Yide's heart sank gradually. Because he once again saw that obsessed expression on Fang Xuande's face.
Selected fine steel, although Ou Yangming has seen this material a lot, but the number of times he has actually come into contact with it is definitely not many. As for forging and refining, it was the first time for a young girl to get on the sedan chair.
However, although Ou Yangming has never forged this material, he has forged a material that is tougher and stronger than it.
In that chaotic hole, the terrible mouthparts of countless black charm reptiles gnawed at stones that could only grind down a trace of powder for a long time. Whether it is the degree of hardness or its own toughness, it is better than selected fine steel.
On that day, Ou Yangming could easily refine and forge even this kind of stone, not to mention the inferior fine steel.
As the ammunition continued to burn, the selected fine steel slowly melted like butter. Under the control of Ouyang Ming's thoughts, the melted juice slowly transformed into a long sword.
In my mind, the extremely familiar handwriting reappeared.
Boostable Ingredients Found, Boosted?
promote!
Following the command of his mind, the attributes of the long sword surrounded by arms in Ouyang Ming's hand increased rapidly.
After knowing the Fang family's ability to suppress the bottom of the box, Ouyang Ming had a plan in mind. And at this moment, it is undoubtedly the best time to implement this plan.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to add sharp and hard attributes to it. In just a moment, this long sword has reached the extreme that can be achieved by making wood.
Item: Otherworldly Longsword
Level: The fifth level of the fine product
Attributes: Sharpness +20, Toughness +20, Durability 18
A faint smile flashed across his face. Ouyang Ming put away the ammunition, put the long sword on the forging platform, and nodded with a smile, "I'll trouble you again."
Ni Yinghong laughed dumbfounded, and said, "Hee hee, I don't find it troublesome."
Let's talk, she clasped her hands again, and the light of identification was released immediately.
Ou Yangming's heart moved slightly. When he appraised the equipment with Ni Yunhong and Zheng Ziwen in the past, although Ni Yinghong was capable of releasing the appraisal technique. However, due to the limitation of mental strength and proficiency, her speed is far from as fast as today.
What's more, after releasing it once, she must rest for a quarter of an hour, and it is absolutely impossible to release the identification technique for the second time in a short period of time without panting.
However, today, Ni Yinghong's demeanor when releasing the identification technique has become relaxed, as if there is no burden at all. The difference between these two changes is so great that strangers may not be able to see it, but Ou Yangming can already judge that her spiritual power has greatly improved compared to before.
Ouyang Ming felt deeply that after the Ni family found the land of family inheritance, they used it immediately. And Ni Yinghong is undoubtedly one of the first beneficiaries.
"Grandfather of the Fang family, this sword is the pinnacle of high-quality sword... the fifth rank!"
A look of astonishment first appeared on Ni Yinghong's face, but at the moment Fang Yide was secretly delighted, thinking that Ouyang Ming's forging had failed, she gave an answer that made him despair.
Boutique, fifth grade!
Immediately, there was a lot of whispers and discussions, and even those experts who were proficient in forging were somewhat skeptical.
"Impossible!" Fang Yide finally couldn't bear to call out.
In fact, he also knew that the possibility of Ni Yinghong spreading rumors to deceive people was extremely slim. However, it was unbelievable for him that two pieces of equipment in a row were both at the peak level five.
Forging equipment with selected stainless steel as the material, the probability of producing a high-quality product is not low. As long as they are blacksmiths with real talents and knowledge, most of them can produce similar effects. But, the fifth level, that is the fifth level...
This kid just forged two weapons, one high-grade and one high-quality, but both are fifth-order?
Although the old man doesn't know much about forging, he is not ignorant either. Even if you want to lie, don't make it too obvious, okay...
"It's really unlikely."
Voices of doubt sounded one after another, not only the members of the Fang family were suspicious, but even some members of the Ni family stood up and expressed their dissatisfaction with piercing eyes.
Of course, these Ni family members are all strong in various branches, and they are only dissatisfied with the results, but no one dares to accuse Ni Yinghong of cheating.
Ni Yinghong didn't change her face, it seemed that everything was in her expectation.
"Grandpa Fang, may I ask why it's impossible?" She asked indifferently.
Fang Yide snorted softly, and said, "It is possible that this long sword is a high-quality product, but it is fifth-order, hehe, if the old man remembers correctly, the long sword just now should also be fifth-order."
Ni Yinghong said slowly: "Exactly."
Fang Yide smiled more and more cheerfully, and said: "So, as long as the equipment forged by this Master Ou is the fifth-order?"
There was a sound of tittering immediately around, how unreliable this is, I am afraid that only those who know nothing about forging can believe it.
"Hmph!" Ouyang Ming snorted suddenly, turned around, and walked to the side of the casting platform again.
His actions immediately attracted everyone's attention, even Ni Yinghong looked surprised, not understanding what he wanted to do.
Ou Yangming's eyes swept over the casting platform, he reached out and picked up an iron ingot. This is the most common forging material, and it is usually only used when beginners practice or carry out large-scale casting of ordinary equipment.
Even the most common official arms or spirit fire blacksmiths don't bother to use them.
However, at this moment, Ouyang Ming held the iron ingot and looked at it for a while, and with a flash of ammunition in his hand, he immediately began to forge it.
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't understand what he was doing.
When forging equipment, the better the material itself, the higher the quality of the equipment that can be forged. Now, Ouyang Ming has demonstrated his absolute strength in forging, and even the selected fine steel has been forged by him into high-quality peak-level fifth-level equipment.
That being the case, why did he choose the most common iron ingot?
Among the many materials, the iron ingot is undoubtedly the easiest thing to shape. Under the fire of Ouyang Ming's munitions, it melted almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, and quickly turned into a leggings.
With a slight flick of his wrist, Ouyang Ming had already put away the general fire and casually placed it on the casting platform.
Then, he took a selected iron ingot without stopping. The ammunition burned again, enveloping it in an instant.
"Huh?" Fang Xuande said in surprise, "He, could it be that he wants to..."
"What does he want?" Fang Yihai asked carelessly. Among the members of the Fang family, he undoubtedly had the greatest confidence in Ouyang Ming. Because he had witnessed the forging competition between Ouyang Ming and Ni Yunhong with his own eyes, and he knew that this young man must not be treated with common sense.
Fang Xuande hesitated for a moment, and said: "Among us blacksmiths, there is a special method of testing skills." He thought for a while, and said: "This method is to use different materials to forge a complete set of basic equipment, because the materials themselves Therefore, there will be a huge gap in the quality of the forged equipment. However, in the quality they belong to, the specific rank represents the true strength of the blacksmith."
Only then did Fang Yihai and the people around them suddenly realize.
However, just because they knew about this, they looked at Ouyang Ming with a strange look in their eyes.
The forging technique is infinitely mysterious, and the materials are even more strange. No one has ever dared to say that he is proficient in forging all materials. Generally speaking, those who are good at forging selected iron ingots may not necessarily be able to forge fine steel or higher-grade materials.
Similarly, those who are good at forging fine steel may not be able to forge better on selected iron ingots than those who are aptitudes, but those blacksmiths who basically spend their entire lives on selected iron ingots are better.
Therefore, this collection of various preparations for forging multiple materials can reveal the true comprehensive strength of a blacksmith.
Ouyang Ming unscrupulously released his own strength, and the selected iron ingot was kneaded and formed in his hands as if it were dough. In just a moment, another leg guard was formed.
Two leggings, two different materials.
However, this is not the end, Ouyang Ming continued to pick up a piece of fine steel. After a few glances, it seemed to be estimating something. Then, when the munitions burned again, part of the piece of fine steel was melted by the munitions and fell down.
The remaining part quickly became an armguard.
Ou Yangming seemed to be addicted. He put down the shaped arm guard, picked up a piece of fine steel, and forged the other arm guard.
After finishing all this, Ouyang Ming suddenly turned his head and said with a smile: "Senior Fang, please choose a material for me?"
