Seglade wore a loose cloak and wrapped himself tightly. Even his head was wrapped with a cloth, leaving only a small slit for vision. He walked carefully through the market, and along the way
Pay attention to the movements around you and be careful not to be followed.
Despite this, he still felt that he was being followed. He walked in the increasingly desolate streets of the town. Although there was no evidence, and although he could not find anyone following him along the way, he could still vaguely feel that he was being followed.
People are watching.
If this is not an illusion, it can only be said that the other party's concealment ability is too good.
Seglade was a little depressed, but he had something important to do and had no choice but to go back home. He had to make a sharp turn and sneak into the black market in Cairo.
He looked back and saw that the corner of the alley behind him had been covered by the optical camouflage spread out by the black market, while in front of him was a bustling market with people coming and going. The young Leopard Man only hoped that this could help him escape from being tracked -
-----He shrugged, quickened his pace and disappeared into the crowd.
The sound of hawking came one after another from the market, and the crowds were bustling, like sticky jelly, making people a little breathless. Seglade endured the sweltering heat and finally crossed from the west side of the market to the market
On the east side of the building, under the cover of the building, he finally found his way to a small stone house in the corner of a deserted alley on the east side.
As always, the sound of the blacksmith striking iron came from the stone house. The sound was steady and continuous, giving people a sense of stability.
"Father Odin, here I come again, meow." Seglade pushed open the door of the stone house without much thought.
"Oh?" The old man in front of the stove grunted, but the movement of striking the iron in his hand was not messy at all: "It's you again."
Seglade took off his turban and breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a Luna Steel long ax from his storage pocket and asked: "I came here today to ask you something, about the Luna Steel weapon -
-----＂
"Oh, that's right, it came just in time." Before Seglade could continue, Odin's father took the long ax with one hand and said to himself: "I thought of a way to improve this weapon. Do you want to try it?
?"
The young leopard man was stunned for a moment: "Uh, okay, meow."
Father Odin smiled lightly, stopped his blacksmithing, and took out a bottle of strange stuff from the anvil on the side. The stuff was in a spray paint can, and you could see the dim, slightly dark-brown color inside from the transparent can.
liquid.
"This is......?"
"Dipterocarps." Father Odin flicked the can with his finger. "It is a special paint made from the male dragon's brain, dragon's blood, and reproductive fluid mixed with carbon powder. If you apply this---
---"
He didn't wait for Seglade's consent before he directly picked up the spray paint can and sprayed it on the Luna Steel Changyue!
"Wait a minute--" Seglade wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. Father Odin was very quick with his hands and feet. He sprayed the spray paint evenly on the glass-like transparent surface of the Luna Steel Changyue in two or three strokes.
superior.
The young Leopard Man sighed inwardly. He hadn't told his father yet that the Luna Steel Changyue was equipped with Great Britain's weapon plug-in system. If you spray paint on it casually, the paint might block the plug-in system's outlet, rendering the plug-in system unusable.
!
But his worries were unnecessary. This special paint called dipterocarp did not adhere to the surface of the weapon layer by layer like ordinary paint, but assimilated with the surface of Luna Steel------Black
The brown paint seems to penetrate into the glass-like material of Luna Steel!
In less than a quarter of an hour, the Luna Steel Changyue that had been sprayed with dipterocarp went through earth-shaking changes. The blade of the longyue that originally looked fragile and highly transparent suddenly turned into a cold metallic luster. The weapon itself
It tends to be more black, like pig iron.
From a distance, it looks no different from a long ax made of fine iron. It is no longer a glass weapon.
"It's so strange, meow..." Seglade hurriedly moved over to take a closer look. In fact, the weapon has not deteriorated. If you look closely at it, you can still see that it is slightly transparent under the black appearance.
It's just because the thick metallic luster on its surface covers everything up that it gives people this [opaque] illusion.
"That's good." Father Odin stroked the surface of the weapon with his hand with satisfaction: "The glass appearance of your Luna Steel weapons is really eye-catching. No matter where you go, as long as you wave it
This kind of glass weapon will definitely cause trouble for itself. After spraying it with dipterocarp, at least those who don't know can't see through it from a distance."
"Very good, meow." Seglade nodded. He finally understood what Father Odin meant. This dipterocarp is indeed a good thing.
"But what else does it do? Does it just make the weapon black and shiny?"
"Is dipterocarp effective? This is difficult to explain. Let me demonstrate it in practice." Father Odin scratched his head and took out another bottle from the cabinet on the side. The bottle seemed to contain some kind of powder.
A powder that glows faintly red. It seems to be full of magic.
"This is rosin powder infused with magic power." Dad poured a little powder into his hand: "To put it simply, it is a small prop that allows weapons to be temporarily enchanted with magic."
He spread the rosin powder evenly on the blade of the Luna Steel Changyue, and tapped it lightly with his finger. Snap! The powder adhering to the blade was instantly ignited, emitting a soft and stable firelight!
"It's unbelievable! It's so easy to enchant the weapon with fire, meow!" Seglade sighed.
"It's just a little gadget," Odin's father smiled contemptuously: "The materials for making rosin powder are very easy to get, but there are not many people in the world who know how to make it. If you want to learn, I will teach you in the future.
. But getting back to the topic------This kind of powder can actually be applied on any weapon, and it does not have to be used in conjunction with dipterocarp paint. However, on ordinary weapons, it lasts very long
It’s limited, probably only about half a minute. If you want the effect to last longer, dipterocarp paint plays an important role.”
"I still don't understand, meow..." Seglade looked at the burning Luna Steel ax in a daze.
"To put it simply, it is a phase shift technology." The old man waved his long ax gently and said, "When rosin powder is applied to an ordinary weapon, it will continue to burn until its magic power is exhausted. But in
In the case of dipterocarp coating, the rosin powder actually does not consume energy when burning, or it consumes very little magic power and can be ignored. Its energy is transferred to the dipterocarp coating, and it only burns when it hits
The moment it hits the target, it is released in one breath------This is very similar to the operating principle of your Luna Steel weapon."
Seglade glared: "In other words, as long as it doesn't hit the enemy, its enchanted state will continue forever, meow?"
"Yes, it's very useful, right?" Dad smiled coldly: "If there is dipterocarp paint on the weapon, you don't have to rush to attack the enemy within half a minute after applying the powder. You can be careful and only choose appropriate options.
It’s the right time to take action.”
Seglade nodded, thinking that this kind of paint is really great. Or maybe the method of temporarily enchanting weapons provided by his father is really great.
Before that, the young leopard man was still hesitating whether to enchant the Luna Steel weapon in his hand, or what kind of magic should be enchanted. After all, ordinary enchantments are one-time, and it is difficult to remove them once they are attached. If
He attached enchantments such as fire to the Luna Steel weapon. It would be very troublesome to change to other enchantments in the future. But now, you can simply apply rosin powder to temporarily enchant the weapon, and the types of rosin enchantments are
It seems that there are many kinds, which can be adapted according to the needs of the battle situation. The lack of duration of turpentine powder can also be made up for by dipterocarp. As long as no attack is made, the enchantment can continue almost indefinitely. This is what Seglade started from making Luna Steel.
What I have always dreamed of before getting a weapon! A weapon that can be enchanted in ever-changing ways!
"That's great, meow!" the Leopard Man young man said happily, taking out more Luna Steel weapons from his pocket and displaying them in front of his father: "Then let's do it quickly and coat all the Luna Steel weapons with borneol."
Sweet meow!"
"Wait a minute." Dad couldn't help but smile slyly, and his gray beard trembled funnyly with his smile: "Who said I would give you this precious dipterocarp for free?"
"Uh, you want money, meow?!"
"Of course. The materials of dipterocarp are all taken from dragons. There are very few people hunting dragons in modern times, so it is natural that the price of dipterocarp is high."
The young leopard man frowned: "How much does it cost, meow? I'll see if I can afford it, meow..."
"No, brat, I don't want your money." Father Odin smiled slyly again and revealed his true purpose: "The batch of Luna steel swords you made the day before yesterday were very popular. Half of them
They were all sold out within minutes. This time I want you to build another batch of Luna Steel weapons, or more accurately, a batch of Luna Steel shields."
"...Shield Meow?"
Dad made some gestures on the notes on the table: "Make twenty small shields, ten medium shields, and two large shields. This amount should be enough. Shields are much easier to make than bayonet swords, and it won't take you a lot of time."
In this way, I will teach you the secret recipe for making longyanxiang and turpentine powder, is it fair?"
Seglade scratched his head again and asked with doubt on his face: "Yes, yes...but daddy, you make swords and shields, why do you want such a large number of weapons? Make them."
This batch of weapons is enough to equip an entire army."
"It's just business, don't worry about it." Father Odin said: "I have prepared the materials for you. You can change your clothes and start making weapons right away."
"Okay... okay, meow." Seglade wondered for a moment, and was completely led by Father Odin. He had already completely forgotten the real purpose of coming to see his father today.
