Chapter 178 174. Technical Reproduction
Berengar was startled when Lann pulled out the dagger from his waist.
Although their relationship is quite harmonious according to the old demon hunter himself. But no matter who sits at the same table as Lan En, his heart will tremble when he sees him drawing a knife.
Fortunately, Berengar was born as a demon hunter. He quickly overcame this slight fear born from the huge gap.
Attention shifted to the blade of the tabletop.
The blade with patterns like water waves and black lines as deep as black smoke deeply attracted Berengar.
“The handle of the knife is the same as the bones you brought back. It is a keel. But the blade is forged with three pieces? No, the pattern produced by stacking and forging has never been seen like this.”
Berengar looked up at Lan.
“Can you get started?”
“It’s up to you.”
Berengar immediately picked up the dragon bone dagger, held it in front of his eyes and examined it, and from time to time scraped the blade with his flexible fingertips.
“The lightness and toughness are also great.”
The old demon hunter looked down at his wolf head necklace.
"There are no traces of magic in these properties. Did you get this from another world? What kind of steel?"
Berengar has been completely aroused.
He is the most talented person in blacksmithing in the Wolf School. The witcher's arduous and dangerous training led him to use forging as an outlet for his stress and fear.
So the more I trained, the more addicted I became, and my skills became more advanced.
"Valyrian steel, the best steel in that world. I heard that magic is applied to the raw iron ore stage, and then the made things will naturally look like this."
Lan En tapped the blade of the dagger on the table, making a crisp "ding-ding" sound.
With his backhand, he pulled out the High Bear School steel sword from his back and placed it on the table.
The blade of the sword, which was originally as clear as autumn water, had an inconspicuous gap that Berengar keenly noticed.
"Did you use this dagger to strike against the steel sword?"
"It's not even a strike. I just used the blade to hold it back, and that's what happened."
Berengar was even more amazed by Lan En's rhetoric.
According to Lan En's introduction, this dagger does not contain materials such as monster tissue that can greatly enhance the strength of the steel.
Just ordinary steel that has been added with magic in the early stages of forging can suppress the toughness of a demon hunter's high-grade steel sword. This strength is a bit scary.
Among the witcher’s school equipment, [Advanced] is already quite high. There are only [Excellent] and [Grandmaster] on it.
But for these two levels of demon hunter equipment, searching the entire school may not be able to produce a finished set. To be honest, I was lucky to find a set of blueprints.
[Enhanced] and [Advanced] level demon hunter equipment are the main equipment of all schools.
Demon hunters wear these equipment to hunt griffins, eliminate demon spirits, and fight against out-of-control golems. It can be imagined that the strength of these equipment is more than a star and a half stronger than what ordinary people use to fight each other.
This difference in equipment strength is caused by the strength of the opponent and the cost of the equipment.
So, when Lan En fights against a knight in full plate armor, although the shape of the long sword is not suitable for breaking armor, you don't have to worry about not being able to hold it up when you really cut it.
"It's really a rare thing from another world."
Berengar touched his chin with interest, and the old demon hunter immediately saw the young man's intention.
“Do you want me to try to reproduce it?”
Lan En nodded calmly.
“Valyrian steel has great potential. I think if it can be reproduced, it will definitely be very useful. And maybe we can play some tricks on the original school drawings.”
"I can give it a try, but you have to pay me wages and trial and error funds."
Lan En said it was natural.
He and Berengar have had an employment relationship since they started tutoring on demon hunters. Their relationship is getting better, but both parties also feel that this model is good and there is no need to change.
Lan En had heard a lot about good brothers and good friends falling out over money in his hometown world, and he didn't want to step into such a trap.
We are all friends, but we cannot give less. Anyway, he now has almost 20,000 gold coins, and he doesn't lack the expenses of a blacksmith.
After negotiating the wages, Berengar tilted his head in the direction of Margarita and motioned for Lan to give her a break.
"Valyrian steel involves magic, and we need professionals."
That is, the Warlock.
A slightly hoarse and charming voice intervened before Lan En could speak.
“I can help.”
Lan En looked at the blonde beauty next to him in surprise.
“Are you coming in person? It won’t affect your work, right?”
Margarita smiled. In fact, Tissaya, who has resigned as the dean, really hopes that Margarita will have a job that can be influenced.
Because that at least shows that the sorceress still has work to do!
"No. The idea of forging Valyrian steel is very different from ours here. We and Ban Ade Academy usually purchase finished swords that are directly forged, and then sell them at a high price after enchanting them. There has never been a warlock involved in the ore smelting stage. Maybe I can gain something from the process of re-engraving Valyrian steel.”
I don’t think any warlock has ever set their sights on ore smelting. The main reason for this stage is that they are too dirty and afraid of heat
Lan En cursed in his heart.
"Oh, right." Berengar suddenly seemed to remember something, drank the beer in the glass in one gulp, and stood up.
"It's getting late, I have to take a rest quickly."
With that said, he turned and walked to his room in the tavern.
Lan En looked at the window on the wooden wall in confusion. The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly.
You told me it was getting late at noon, right?
Immediately, he felt his collar being grabbed by a gentle hand, and he was forcefully dragged into the tavern room.
"Indeed, it's getting late, Lan En."
This power is not really strong, but the attitude is firm. So Lan En could only follow along.
"Rita, that is not my room."
"Yes, there is no room for you here." The sorceress replied calmly. "Except for the old witcher, I'll take care of all the remaining rooms."
Lan En opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.
Master Fa is everywhere he is!
After entering the room, Lan En found that the ordinary tavern room in this village had changed drastically. Animal skins, soft beds, hanging paintings.
There was even a big dressing table placed against the wall!
The hands on the collar pressed his shoulders and pressed him onto the soft bed.
Margarita's plump and round body pressed against Lan En, and their faces were so close that they could feel each other's breath.
“It was Aretuza who funded your actions, Lan. You don’t think that you can pay off just by selling Merigold a good deal in front of the kingdom, do you? She was more than ten years earlier. Already graduated.”
I have to say that Margarita is really suitable for rich and colorful makeup, which doubles her charm.
But the ambiguous smile on that delicate face made Lan En feel like a girl from a good family who was about to be forced into submission by the rich second generation.
This sense of identity dislocation made Lan En feel a little panicked.
"But we didn't put this in the contract at that time!"
Lan En's eyes looked down, and then he quickly looked away.
This is too fierce! Too fierce!
Margarita smiled even happier when she saw this, like a fox who had stolen a chicken.
Her fingers traced Lan En's temples.
"Although I have seen the image, I didn't expect you to actually become so seductive!"
The blonde beauty leaned closer, and Lan En could even feel the vicious and terrifying weight on his chest!
Finally, the flaming red lips were close to Lan En's earlobe, and he teased like a villain.
"I've never heard of a witcher having an advantage in a contract, Lan. I have to teach you a lesson, never."
"Witchers should listen to their employers. . Haha!”
