A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 38 Mageweave Cloth and Enchantments
It must be said that when Tony Stark gets serious, he is very efficient.

As usual, Li Wei was hiding in his Kamar-Taj residence, engrossed in leveling up his secondary profession, when he heard the news broadcast on television—a habit he carried over from his previous life.

Even if I don't watch TV, I usually leave it on when I'm home alone.

This makes it seem more popular.

As for the TV signal problem in Kamar-Taj—Karmar-Taj even has Wi-Fi, so why can't it have a TV signal?

Kamar-Taj is just a secluded retreat, not an isolation from the world. People there simply have less money in their pockets, rarely exceeding 200 rupees—yes, Nepalese rupees, which is about one dollar and fifty cents.

Yes, I'm talking about you, Wang Kaixuan.

That is, the sorcerer king in the movie.

During his time at Kamar-Taj, Levi had already found out his name and background. After all, both of them were of Chinese descent, making it much easier to get in touch with him than with Strange.

The other person's name is Wang Kaixuan, the same as the actor's name, except that the surname has changed from Huang to Wang.

And they are all from Hong Kong.

His father was none other than the Temple Master of Hong Kong, the Archmage Hamil—the same one that Strange initially mistook for the Ancient One in the movie Doctor Strange.

So even though he might not have two dollars in his pocket, he's a legitimate second-generation law student.

She holds a very high position in Kamar-Taj.

It's no wonder that in the original storyline, Strange was chosen as the Sorcerer Supreme five years after his disappearance; he had a strong following among the public.

Getting back to the main point, the news on television was none other than the news of personnel changes at the top of the Stark Group.

Former COO Obadiah Stane was taken away by the FBI at a board meeting on suspicion of stealing company property, selling company secrets, and illegally smuggling and selling weapons. The position of COO was taken over by Stark's special assistant, Pepper Potts!

As for the plot involving Obama's counterattack, there was absolutely no such thing.

After all, there's no Iron Man suit to restore Obama to his former glory.

If both parties were ordinary people, Obama's decades of management of Stark Industries would simply be no match for Tony, the true owner.

He had no choice but to obediently go to prison.

As for the closure of Stark Industries' weapons division, that did not happen.

Although Tony learned about his future fate from Levi.

But some things can only be truly understood through personal experience.

Therefore, Tony at this time was completely unable to empathize with his original self in this matter.

Therefore, there are no plans to close the weapons department.

Levi was not surprised by Tony's choice, and even welcomed it.

Because closing the weapons division will have a significant impact on Tony Stark and Stark Industries, but it won't have much of an impact on the rest of the world.

Stark Industries' weapons division mainly produces and sells conventional weapons, but they are technically and in terms of quality better than their competitors.

Even if Stark Industries stops selling these types of weapons, new weapons manufacturers like Hammer Industries will fill the gap.

Of course, there are still some differences for Li Wei.

At least if he needs modern weapons, he basically doesn't have to spend money.

And you don't have to worry about buying defective products like those from Hammer Industries' ex-wife.

Leaving his attention from the Stark Industries news and returning it to the workbench in front of him, Levi felt a slight excitement.

Through his own exploration.

He finally invented the magic weave cloth.

It turns out that making magic-weave cloth is not difficult. It only requires high-grade silk to be soaked in magic potion, which will produce faint magic patterns, hence the name magic-weave cloth.

This is why the magic-weave cloth in the game looks so much like silk. Because it is silk.

The only slightly troublesome thing is the potion needed to dye the mageweave cloth—a raw material that needs to be enchanted, soul dust.

Soul Dust can only be obtained by dismantling equipment of levels 26-35.

If it weren't for the fact that he had previously practiced tailoring and made a lot of equipment, and even managed to get a batch of high-quality firearms from Tony, which slightly improved Levi's enchantments, he wouldn't have been able to improve.

Furthermore, dismantling enchanted items has relatively low skill level requirements—dismantling level 26-35 equipment only requires 50 enchantment levels.

Otherwise, Li Wei really wouldn't have any soul dust.

However, when it comes to disassembling things, Li Wei can't help but think of the two guns that his elusive father, who was the one who kept this body at home, had collected.

That pistol requires 125 enchantments to dismantle, while the shotgun requires 75.

This is not normal.

According to Li Wei's previous tests, real-world equipment and weapons can be disassembled and broken down.

However, there will be no level display. Only the equipment he crafts will have a level display. But it's just a display; it doesn't show the level in green text indicating whether it's usable or red text indicating whether it's unusable, like in the game.

Instead, the font is white.

In other words, there are no usage requirements.

This is not surprising, because Li Wei only obtained a secondary profession, but did not obtain a normal combat profession in Azeroth, nor did he have a character level panel.

There are no levels or ranks in nature.

Furthermore, in the normal world, most equipment does not have class restrictions—for example, warriors in the game cannot equip wands.

But in the real world, it's impossible for a warrior not to be able to hold a magic wand in his hand.

Of course, being able to pick up a wand doesn't mean you can use it—because in the real world, a wand requires magic to activate.

Enchanting can be used to make wands; Levi has already tried it.

Fortunately, Li Wei's body possessed magical talent; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to use the Sling Ring and be allowed by the Ancient One to come to Kamar-Taj to learn magic.

Without magical talent, he might only be able to possess magic through glyphs.

The power of a basic wand is only so-so. After testing, it is about the same as a small-caliber pistol, but the rate of fire and the speed of the magic bullets are much slower than that of a gun.

Although it has an automatic "tracking" function, if the person being tracked reacts quickly enough, it is actually easy for them to actively use the surrounding objects to block the magic bullet.

So it's pretty useless.

However, in the real world, although equipment does not display a level, it does not prevent it from being dismantled.

The skill level required for dismantling can also be used to determine the item level in the game corresponding to this piece of equipment in the real world.

In other words, the two guns collected by Li Wei's father, the pistol with a value of 125, are already level 40-45 equipment.

The 75 skill points required for a shotgun correspond to an equipment level of 30-35.

On the surface, it doesn't seem like anything.

The key point is that the batch of high-quality firearms that Levi obtained from Stark Industries only requires a dismantling level of 25!

In other words, the high-quality firearms produced by the world's leading arms group are only equivalent to level 20-25 equipment in a game.

Moreover, these firearms were all relatively advanced M4 rifles of that era.

What about the two at home?

The pistol was a Smith & Wesson M29, and the shotgun was a Winchester M1887.

Without a doubt, both of these guns are legendary firearms.

But Li Wei really couldn't understand what made these two guns better than the M4!
Is it just because these two guns are old?
