418 Chapter 323: Reinforcement of Skills, Beyond A-Rank, Unparalleled Intelligence [1/2]
At the blacksmith shop.
‘Hu!’
The apprentice pulled the bellows, and tons of air blew into the furnace. It caused the green fire to burn even brighter.
A young man with only one arm stared at the ore in the furnace with a frown.
When the ore was red hot, he immediately took it out with a pair of pincers and placed it on the forging table beside him.
There was a slightly hollow hole in the center, just enough to hold the ore.
The young man picked up the iron hammer on the side with one arm and lifted it.
The moment the iron hammer flew over his head, he used gravity to smash it down.
‘Clang!’
Sparks flew in all directions.
Although he only had one arm, his movements weren’t clumsy. He was so skilled that it shocked them.
Hammer after hammer, the fist-sized ore incessantly shrank. When the temperature dropped, he placed it into the furnace to burn again.
He briskly repeated the process like a mechanical puppet that did not know exhaustion.
He didn’t know how many times he had pa.s.sed it, but the ore had already shrunk to its original size, but he still didn’t stop.
“Sam, the lord said that the whole city will be on holiday for two days. You haven’t had any rest, so go back and accompany Shanna.”
The young man stared at the furnace fire and turned his head slightly when he heard the voice.
Sam immediately revealed a respectful gaze when he saw the person distinctly.
“Good evening, Lady Adele.”
After he bowed, he shook his head and rejected the other party’s proposal.
“I’m just one step away from success…”
As he spoke, he saw the ore had turned red again and immediately took it out.
His eyes flashed with relief while he looked at the extremely hot ore.
He directly threw the ore into the stone barrel filled with black liquid beside the furnace.
‘Rip!’
An ear-piercing sound rang out. And the black liquid began to bubble as if it boiled.
Its color had even changed from black to a magma-like red.
Excitement filled Sam’s eyes when he saw this. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. Then turned his head and gestured to the scorpion warrior beside him to let him come closer.
After that, he picked up a unique tool and carefully poured the liquid from the stone bucket onto the scorpion’s tail.
The scorpion quickly swallowed the moment the fiery-red rock body fell.
It formed a layer of hard black armor.
When the hard armor covered the entire scorpion tail, an extraordinary power emitted from it, and the surrounding magic power flowed faster.
Red spider web-like marks appeared.
Just from its appearance, one could feel that the scorpion tail had become supremely extraordinary.
Sam turned to look at Adele. His voice choked with emotion when he saw this.
“Lady Adele, I didn’t let the lord down…”
He held an unimaginable respect for the fantastic existence that had given him everything.
Was the research a success?
Adele also showed a surprised smile.
“Lord Richard will be so happy!
“Let’s go. We’ll see Lord Richard. He seems to have a more important task for you.”
After Sam calmed down, he looked at his unkempt appearance with embarra.s.sment.
“Lady Adele, should I go and change my clothes first…”
Dirt soaked in his body since he was forging beside the furnace.
“Go on.”
“Yes.”
A moment later, Sam had changed into a clean set of clothes. He followed behind Adele respectfully and headed to the Lord’s mansion. He didn’t dare to say a word along the way.
In Richard’s eyes, Adele was a cute little girl with a little bit of a research maniac’s aura. However, in the blacksmith shop, she was a queen-like figure who could decide the fate of an apprentice with a single word.
The apprentices respected her well with her forging skills and Richard’s unconditional trust.
Few people in the entire Twilight City could be presumptuous in front of her.
Sam became nervous as soon as he entered the Lord’s mansion.
To him and all the residents of Twilight City, a sacred aura shrouded this mansion.
It was because of the great existence they respected the most and have lived here.
Typically, only some people had the right to enter the Lord’s mansion.
One could brag to others at this point, even if he could enter to deliver food and rice.
The mummy guard looked at him with empty eyes when Sam stepped through the door.
The soul fire seemed to freeze everything.
Sam’s heart trembled. He did not dare to while he lowered his head. He followed closely behind Adele.
He crossed the front yard and entered the hall.
Andrea immediately bowed.
“Good evening, Lord Richard.”
Sam heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the familiar voice and immediately stepped forward.
“Good evening, my Lord…”
Richard, who had just heard the system prompt, saw the two and smiled.
“No need to be so polite, sit.”
When the two sat down, they looked at Sam with appreciation.
“It’s been hard on you guys these past few days, Sam. I’ve seen your hard work. You’ve done well.”
Sam quickly stood up. He saluted again with excitement and with one arm on his chest.
“My Lord, this is all your gift! I’ll give you everything I have, even my soul!”
Richard chuckled and gestured for him to sit down.
“Continue to work hard in the future. I have high hopes for you.”
“I will not let you down!”
Richard nodded and didn’t continue the topic. The scorpion warrior’s elite technology was worth celebrating, but after obtaining so many high-level treasures, he was already immune to such ordinary progress.
He looked at the girl beside him and entered the day’s main topic.
“Adele, you can postpone the forging of the dragon-hunting crossbow.”
