Chapter 766 Chasing the Wind’s Knife

The days passed day by day.

Luo Ji quickly reviewed the regular reports sent in from each city.

Recently, there haven't been any major events among the civilizations of his world.

The supplies in the small town to the west are also transported by sleigh teams, so there is basically no problem.

It's close to noon.

Luo Ji sat back on the throne and stretched out.

Just when he was thinking about finding time to take a nap after lunch.

A guard ran in quickly.

"Report to Your Majesty, Master Karl asks for an audience."

"knew."

While talking, Luo Ji picked up the hot tea at hand and took a slow sip.

Then he took the guards and walked towards the audience hall ahead.

"Weak minister Karl, please see your Majesty!"

The elf craftsman Karl, who had been waiting in the audience hall for a long time, quickly bowed respectfully when he saw Luo Ji.

While Luo Ji signaled Karl to excuse himself, his eyes fell directly on the long wooden box in the other man's hand.

"It seems that you have completed another of the magic weapons I ordered you to forge before?"

"Your Majesty is wise."

As he spoke, Karl directly held up the wooden box in his hands.

The expression on his face was still somewhat obviously excited.

Obviously, he is extremely confident in his work.

Luo Ji was also somewhat interested in this.

You know, Carl had never been so excited when he completed the hurricane bow before.

Looking at this posture, he made a breakthrough in the process of making this magic weapon!

This made Luo Ji look forward to it a little more.

He quickly motioned to Wang Kai to open the wooden box.

I saw a long, exquisitely crafted knife lying there quietly in the wooden box.

Among them, the most conspicuous one is the azure second-order wind magic core, which is embedded at the end of the handle.

With the magic core as the center, the entire handle of the knife is engraved with mysterious lines and patterns.

Luo Ji put his hand on the handle of the knife.

With a buzzing sound, the long knife was immediately unsheathed.

"Good knife."

Looking at the long knife in his hand, Luo Ji narrowed his eyes.

The entire blade tends to be narrow and long.

At the same time, the thin blade has an intimidating edge.

The entire appearance can be said to be eighty-nine points similar to the Miao Dao of their Chinese dynasty.

"Karl, the blade is so thin, is there a risk of breaking?"

What Luo Ji wanted was not a decorative knife.

A sharp edge is certainly a good thing.

But if it breaks after a few collisions while fighting the enemy, it will make people unable to laugh.

Facing Luo Ji's question, Karl smiled confidently.

"Your Majesty, please pay attention to the blade."

"Blade?"

When Luo Ji heard this, he directly raised the long knife in his hand.

His eyes fell on the two-finger-wide blade.

Upon taking a look, he immediately saw something unusual.

Tilt the blade slightly left and right.

Accompanied by angle conversions and light changes.

Vaguely, on the blade of the blade, dots of stars appeared, like lines that flickered on and off like stars.

Luo Ji had heard of it.

In ancient times, the steel forged by top forging masters would have unique patterns.

Therefore, it is called pattern steel.

The weapons forged from patterned steel were the first-class magic weapons at that time.

It is said that blowing the hair will break it, and cutting iron is like mud.

Unfortunately, this craft has long been lost due to the ancients' habit of "saving one hand" when teaching disciples.

In modern society, although the patterned steel produced by machines is highly efficient, it is obviously not comparable to it.

Now let’s get down to business.

Luo Ji knew about patterned steel.

But the lines on the blade are like stars.

Obviously it is not the same as pattern steel.

"Karl, what are the patterns on this sword?"

Seeing that Luo Ji had discovered the mystery, Karl couldn't help but show his original excitement again.

"Your Majesty does not know. During the forging of magic weapons, the material 'star sand' must be included as an intermediary. Otherwise, ordinary metal will not be able to carry magic power."

"While Wei Chen was forging this long knife, he unexpectedly discovered that 'star sand' can be completely smelted with steel!"

Luo Ji's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He already had a rough idea of ​​what was going on.

"In other words, you used star sand and steel to smelt a new metal? And this long knife was forged from that new metal?"

"Your Majesty is wise."

No wonder Carl is so excited.

As a craftsman, he smelted such a new metal.

To some extent, his name can already be recorded in history!

As for what this knife is like.

This can best be understood by directly engaging in actual combat with someone.

The group of people quickly moved to the martial arts arena in the palace.

"Your Majesty, you are offended by such a humble position."

Wang Kai, now the captain of the guard, pulled out the sword from his waist and assumed a fighting stance.

And Luo Ji was not ambiguous either.

I saw him taking an arrow step, and at the same time, the long knife on his waist was unsheathed with a cold light.

He raised his hand and struck directly at Wang Kai with a knife.

As a result, Luo Ji swung his sword.

In the blink of an eye, the blade, as thin as a cicada's wing, was already pressed against Wang Kai's neck!

Even because Luo Ji was unable to withdraw his sword in time.

A shallow blood mark appeared directly on Wang Kai's neck...

Feeling the severe chill and the pain that followed, small bumps quickly appeared on the skin around the neck.

A drop of cold sweat slowly slipped from his forehead.

At this moment, the expression on Wang Kai's face was obviously dull.

Luo Ji, who maintained his sword-drawing posture, had a dazed look on his face.

Luo Ji then came to his senses and quickly put the knife back.
To be continued...
