"The little devil who is a part-time machine warlock is still very valuable. If I sell you and get a beautiful maid, she can also work as a cow or a horse for me, working hard and without complaint." Gao Fei looked at Pippi with a half-smile.
"Brother! If you think so, the layout is too narrow!" Pippi looked aggrieved, "What's so good about women, how can I be so well-behaved and sensible as my little brother? If you need a woman to warm your bed, ahem... Actually, little brother, I can'
I can also have the "transformation technique" that women have, and I can also customize the figure and appearance according to your preferences, which can fully meet your physiological needs."
Gao Fei was speechless. He really couldn't stand this slutty bitch!
After leaving the slave auction site, Gao Fei walked into the ore trading area next door to see what the price of the magic crystal was.
Not far away, a stall with baskets of ore caught Gao Fei's attention.
Each basket of ore weighs almost a ton and is filled with dark stones that look very much like coal, with dark red spots dotting the surface.
"Brother! You are so discerning!" Pippi flew over with fluttering wings and explained to Gao Fei with a smile: "This is the most famous local product of Molten Iron Lake, 'Abyss Blood Ore', and the quality seems to be pretty good."
"In the bottomless abyss, the war is like a violent storm and lasts for countless epochs. Steel, blood and magic are deposited here."
"The ore used to make steel from the blood of the abyss is aggregated in blood and iron, preserving its unique power."
"What is the use of this ore?" Gao Fei asked curiously.
Before Pippi could say anything, the dwarf setting up the stall rushed to speak.
"Blood ore can be refined into abyss blood to make steel, which can be used to make weapons. The quality is similar to cold iron, which is specially designed to restrain demons!"
The dwarf stall owner took out a metal wine bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the lid, took a swig, stroked his thick beard, and said with foaming at the mouth:
"In addition, if you use abyss blood steel to forge swords and other weapons, the blades will be sharper than ordinary steel swords. Even a little kid can easily pierce plate armor with a dagger forged from blood steel!"
"Really?" Gao Fei looked at the dwarf dubiously.
The dwarves are known everywhere for their drunkenness and bragging. In order to sell ore, it is difficult to say that they will not exaggerate.
"Boy! Why don't you ask around? I, old Jim, always have something to say and never brag!"
The old dwarf was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He pulled out a dagger from his waist and handed it to Gao Fei, letting him taste it in person.
Gao Fei took the dagger made of steel made from the blood of the abyss, and found that it was heavier than it looked. It was dark in color, a bit like a lead product. With a flick of his finger, the blade made a clear clang, and its hardness was comparable to the current smelting process.
of high carbon steel.
Turning the dagger around, Gao Fei carefully observed the blade and found that the edge of the blade showed a faint crimson color, giving it a cruel beauty.
He is not good at metal materials, but he can use the astrolabe to directly identify the quality of this blood-made steel dagger.
The appraisal results proved that the dwarf stall owner really wasn’t bragging!
The physical properties of the blood steel dagger are similar to those of cold iron weapons. It can penetrate the damage-reducing armor of most demons and fairies. It also has a built-in "sharp edge" special effect, doubling the critical hit rate!
What a good thing!
Gao Fei admired secretly.
"Old man, do you sell swords made from blood steel or refined steel?" Gao Fei asked the dwarf.
The old dwarf took another sip of wine, his face showing a bit of sadness.
"The blacksmith shop I opened in the town has gone bankrupt and has been mortgaged to creditors. Now only this batch of ore is left in stock. After disposing of it at a low price, I will return to my hometown to retire... Unfortunately, now I have
It is impossible to refine the ore and create weapons."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend. Can you give me a sample of the ore? I want to carefully identify the grade of the ore. If it's still passable, I'll be happy to buy more."
"Of course, no problem!" The old dwarf grabbed a large piece of ore, threw it to Gao Fei, and said boldly: "It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, just take it as a souvenir!"
Gao Fei caught the ore, turned around and walked to the corner, turning his back to the stall owner and the customers, pretending to be observing attentively.
Pippi came over and probed suspiciously: "Boss, can you still identify ores?"
Gao Fei shook his head frankly.
"No...you can't tell the difference between good and bad, so why do you pretend to know so much?" Pippi scratched his head blankly, "You don't really want to buy a big basket of ore, do you? We don't have smelting equipment.
It’s useless to drop ore!”
Gao Fei gave him a look of disdain, secretly switched his secondary profession to "Alchemist", and tried to use the professional skill "Separation and Purification" to process the abyss blood steel-making ore in his hand.
With a slight rustling sound, pieces of gravel peeled off automatically and separated into impurities and black and red metal elements.
Gao Fei weighed the purified blood steel and estimated that based on the grade of the ore, a basket of ore priced at ten disaster coins could produce at least one pound of abyss blood steel.
Pippi was stunned as he watched, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
"Oh no! How can you still play like this?!"
After exclaiming, the little devil quickly covered his mouth, flapped his wings and flew back to the ore stall, putting on a rich and wealthy face.
"Old man! How much ore do you have here in total? My eldest brother takes care of it all, can you give me a 50% discount?"
"Pfft!" The old dwarf sprayed a mouthful of strong wine on the little devil's face, "50% off? Why don't you go and grab it?!"
"Hey! You old miser, please speak up and don't spit!" The little devil wiped his face, "Can we each make concessions and get a 40% discount?"
"Damn it! Do you think I don't know how to count?!" The dwarf was almost furious. "I cheated and deceived me right from the start. Are you the one who negotiates business like this?"
"I'm sorry, we devils are like this..." Pippi smiled playfully.
Gao Fei calmly put away the small piece of blood to make steel and watched Pippi and the old dwarf bargaining.
After a lot of pushing and pulling, Pipi finally reached an agreement with the seller, and purchased 20 baskets of blood steel-smelting ore at a wholesale price of 114.514 disaster coins.
After the old dwarf finished the business, he felt that he had suffered internal injuries. He took his money bag, cursed and left the trading place, and rushed into the tavern, intending to get drunk and relieve his worries.
20 baskets of ore, with a total weight of 20 tons, are too inconvenient to carry around.
Fortunately, the organizer of the trade fair was very considerate and set aside a cargo storage area in advance.
Goofy spent some change to rent a storage room to store the ore.
After today's fair ends, Gao Fei plans to rent a house as an alchemy workshop, purify these ores, and make pistol bullets with "sharp edge" and "cold iron" special effects, which will definitely be fun to use to hunt demons!
If there is still enough blood for steelmaking, Gao Fei would also like to process two rapiers as secondary weapons for the "Thunder King Fang" - equipped with the free specialty "Weapon Crossover", he can use the giant scythe with one hand, with a killing effect
