Chapter 135 Casting and Fragrance
Yang Yi also took the crystal ball into the witch laboratory.
In this way, if there is an island or other large obstacle nearby, he can detect it immediately.
Then he started thinking about what equipment to use crystals to make.
Although Su Na made the mold, Yang Yi planned to do the template part himself.
For example, a stainless steel sword can be used as a template to create a crystal sword.
After the rough crystallized long sword is polished, its quality is still good, but its lethality has increased.
[Name: Crystal Long Sword]
[Type: Treasure]
[Quality: Good product]
[Introduction: A long sword made of special crystals. It is light and can be slashed quickly and continuously. It is very sharp, but has less toughness. 】
The system does not rate the crystal sword highly, probably because it is fragile.
A high-quality melee weapon like this can currently be sold for about 1,500 conch coins. If it is not polished, it can only be sold for 1,000.
Yang Yi made one according to the process, which took about an hour.
If the operation is more skillful, the time should be further shortened, but not by much.
He tried letting the skeletal arms do the work for him, but they could only do some repetitive and mindless work, and didn't know how to adjust the strength or sharpen the sword's angle.
So it still has to be made by hand.
After figuring out the production capacity and production process, Yang Yi went to the cabin again and checked the stock of crystals.
There are eight tons in total, but because it is light, the actual volume is not small, almost four cubic meters, and can make many weapons. (One cubic meter of water is about one ton, and iron is about eight tons)
Yang Yi plans to use the light and hard characteristics of crystals to try to make giant swords and shields to see the effect.
In fact, plate armor is not bad, but the manufacturing process is too complicated and requires a large number of molds. In particular, the movable joints are difficult to make, and the interior also needs to be filled with buffers.
Yang Yi just thought about it and gave up the idea of making plate armor.
He first asked Suna to use the broken iron as a template to make a mold.
After pouring a large amount of melted crystals into shape, a rough giant sword was cast.
This is followed by polishing, which takes about two hours in total.
After completion, the giant sword was recognized by the system as a high-quality treasure, so it was considered a step in the right direction.
[Name: Broken Iron (Fake)]
[Type: Treasure]
[Quality: Premium]
[Introduction: Refer to Broken Iron, a crystalline giant sword made of special crystals. It is lightweight, has an uneven blade, is thick and hard, and becomes sharp after polishing. It has great lethality.
It can be used with Strength 5, and can be wielded easily with Strength 6. The partial collapse has limited impact on the power, and it is especially suitable for dealing with large unarmored creatures. 】
Yang Yi tried swinging it a few times, and it felt good. It should be no problem to cut off the tentacles of the pale worm with one sword.
"You can keep one to practice your sword skills." Yang Yi thought.
But he doesn't plan to use it in actual combat.
When the giant sword needs to be used, it will definitely be an enemy that is difficult to deal with even a flintlock gun, and it will definitely have to be broken iron.
It's not this fake's turn.
Yang Yi also thought about the price, and set it at 20,000 conch coins, which was 5,000 higher than the average price of high-quality long weapons in the market.
But you shouldn’t worry about selling it, after all, this is the only giant sword with a strength requirement of 5!
Yang Yi compared the crystal consumption of the giant sword and the long sword and found that the long sword was more profitable.
After all, one giant sword is enough to make more than twenty crystallized swords.
But considering the time cost and sales cycle, the situation has to be reversed.
The crystal long sword has no advantage in the market. There are many similar high-quality equipment, and the sales will be very slow.
It is very likely that when entering the fertile sea, this crystallized long sword has not been sold out.
By then... there may be no chance to sell it!
Taking all things into consideration, Yang Yi chose the giant sword that would take less time and earn more money quickly.
He also made a shield.
The prototype was a small round shield, which was enlarged and elongated into an oval shape, about one meter in length.
The thickness of the shield was adjusted several times, melted and recast, and finally it became a fine piece of armor.
[Name: Crystal Shield]
[Type: Treasure]
[Quality: Premium]
[Introduction: A large shield made of special crystals. It is light and strong. It can be used with strength 5. The smooth surface can easily deflect attacks. 】
"Not bad!"
Yang Yi's basic strength reaches 6, and it is effortless to use this large shield.
It can be kept in the ring at ordinary times and taken out at critical moments to effectively reduce damage.
Yang Yi planned to keep a few shields for his own use so that he would have spare parts if they were broken.
And Suna can also use such a large shield, which is considered a very good product.
The price of this shield is also 20,000, and the amount of crystals it consumes is almost the same as that of a giant sword.
Yang Yi estimated the total amount of crystals and could probably make 42 pieces of giant swords or shields. Excluding the five large shields and one giant sword that he planned to keep, the number that could be sold was 36 pieces.
Converted into conch coins, that’s 720,000!
By then, the money in Yang Yi's account will be close to 2 million, and he can go shopping like crazy!
He looked at the time and saw that there was less than an hour until dark.
After sailing for most of the day, there was almost no change in the chart, nothing at all.
But this is the norm in sailing.
Yang Yi looked at Su Na, planning to call her for dinner.
She is now feeding long-legged sardines with delicious mushrooms and recording their changes.
"Did you find anything?" Yang Yi asked.
“The mushroom is also attractive to other organisms.
Long-legged sardines, for example, will eat mushrooms instead of brown bread. "
Suna pointed at the bread crumbs in the glass tank, but the fish ignored them.
Instead, the mushroom pieces thrown into the glass tank would be snatched up.
She covered the glass cover to prevent the long-legged sardines from jumping out, and planned to feed them with mushrooms for a few days.
Anyway, these little things have a small appetite, and a large mushroom is enough to feed them for a week.
The two left the cabin and went to the deck.
Yang Yi was going to eat grilled fish, but when he put away the fishing net, he unexpectedly found seven or eight fat and roe-filled one-armed crabs hanging on it.
So eating grilled fish turned into eating crabs.
This thing should be eaten as soon as possible, and it is not easy to preserve.
The two steamed the crabs, then disassembled them and took out all the crab roe, crab roe and crab meat inside.
"Don't you feel that you have no appetite?" Su Na suddenly said.
Yang Yi nodded.
He also found it.
After working for most of the day, he actually had no appetite, even though he was a little hungry.
It was as if the crab roe and crab meat in front of him were a pile of mud, unattractive.
"This should be the effect of the delicious mushroom.
Although it is non-toxic, the fragrance it emits will make people salivate.
After being affected by its fragrance for a long time, other foods will lose their appeal.
You will subconsciously feel that this thing is not as delicious as mushrooms."
Suna judged.
To verify her guess, she picked up a piece of crab meat and put it in her mouth, frowning while chewing, because the crab meat in her mouth tasted like chewing wax.
Yang Yi was the same.
But he was a man of action, and decisively drank a bottle of appetizer magic potion, and then the crab meat became delicious.
Suna also learned to drink a bottle, which neutralized the influence of the fragrance.
