Fulilian: The Little Master Who Doesn't Understand Love

Chapter 53 Forging the Holy Sword

The old dwarf's eyes widened instantly. He took the bag of gems with trembling hands and carefully examined the quality of each gem.

There were few gems in his treasury that could compare with these.

It is truly worthy of being called the dragon’s treasure.

"Great, great!" He even said the word "great" three times excitedly. "This reward is absolutely enough!"

With these gems, all the materials and effort I spent are completely worth it.

"But I have one more request. I hope to select some weapons and equipment from your workshop."

The old dwarf was a little hesitant about Norn's request.

Seeing this, Norn continued, "This is enough to cover your material and labor costs, and even more, isn't it?"

The norn knew well the value of these magnificent gems to the dwarves.

He is not a person who is willing to suffer losses, otherwise why would he give the old dwarf a small bag of gems instead of several? He must have other purposes.

This action made Lord beside him nod secretly.

The determined Norn is gradually on the road to becoming king.

But Lord always seemed to feel that this sentence sounded familiar.

In the end, the old dwarf agreed to Norn's request.

At this time, Celie added coldly, "The rewards we offer are already generous enough. Don't let me see you playing tricks in the forging, like replacing the ore or something."

Invisible magical power began to gather around her, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

The old dwarf swallowed hard and waved his hand quickly, "Of course not! I swear on the honor of the dwarves that I will do my utmost to forge this holy sword!"

If the customer pays little, he will naturally not put in the effort to forge it.

But Lord and his group not only took out precious eternal ores and scales, they even took out so many gems as rewards.

The old dwarf will use all his energy to forge this holy sword for them.

He carefully put away the gem and dragon scales, then looked at Lord, wanting to say something but stopping himself. "However, to forge a holy sword capable of storing magic power, one more key item is needed."

"What is it?" Lord asked.

"A crystal that can store magic power."

"You don't have it?" Lord was a little puzzled.

"Not now. This stuff is only used when making magic props. I don't have any reserves at all."

The dwarves' forging techniques include the production of magic items, but this old dwarf mostly forges various weapons and equipment, and very few magic items.

Naturally, he would not specifically stockpile magic crystals. Besides, this thing is quite expensive. He could not store materials in the warehouse for something that he might not be able to forge even one piece in a year.

So if there is a need, we will wait until we have the materials before starting forging.

"You want me to go look for it?"

After all, I have paid so much for it, why do I have to find the materials myself? It makes me feel like the unlucky guy in a fantasy novel who asks others to make elixirs for him.

Not only do you have to prepare several materials and ask others to make pills for you, but you also have to prepare an additional reward regardless of success or failure.

It's just so miserable.

"We can wait, though. A dwarven merchant group will arrive in this city in about a year. We can buy magic crystals from them."

The old dwarf was also very embarrassed. He was missing only this material. The main reason was that he did not expect that the holy sword that the elf lady required to be forged should also have the function of storing magic power.

He'd never had this effect when forging weapons before. "How about removing the magic storage function? I can add some other skills for you guys instead?"

"No!" Celie refused directly. "This is the bottom line. I must be able to store magic power!"

The old dwarf wiped the sweat from his forehead. Facing the cold elf in front of him, he always felt frightened.

"I understand. How about I wait for the dwarven merchant group to arrive in a year and then forge it for you?"

Lord frowned. A year was too long.

Maybe this time is nothing for Celie, but Lord is not willing to wait that long.

Just when the atmosphere reached a stalemate, Som suddenly poked his head out from the depths of the workshop and said, "Look inside!"

He walked over quickly. He had taken away a large bag of ore from the dragon's lair, and now it was a good opportunity for the old dwarf in front of him to identify it.

A large pile of colorful ores was poured onto the ground by Som, and the old dwarf was shocked again.

"Is this sand-grain gold? It's harder than steel, the best weapon material, and it even has this huge magic crystal! No, it's so pure and a star-blue color. This is a top-grade product that can store vast amounts of magic power!"

Lord's expression finally softened a bit: "Now are the materials ready?"

In his heart, he just wanted to say thank you to the dragon.

Not only does he give money and materials, but even his blood and skin can be used to make magic books. He's really a great dragon!
"All right!" The old dwarf nodded repeatedly, but then looked troubled. "However, to activate the magic in the crystal, a magician needs to infuse it with magic."

A bolt of light instantly condensed from Celie's fingertips: "Did you do this on purpose?"

He said that there were not enough materials and that he needed a magician.

He had just boasted that a master blacksmith like himself could forge a holy sword, but in the end he still needed their help.

"No, no, no!" The old dwarf retreated hurriedly. "This is a requirement for forging weapons that can store magic power! This also applies to forging magic items."

Lord looked at Celie thoughtfully: "That is to say."

"Let's go together."

Seeing that the old dwarf had no intention of lying, Celie had to retract the light arrow from her fingertips.

"Row!"

As the only two magicians in the team, Lord naturally felt obliged to do so: "It seems that not only will we have to stay here for a while, but we even have work to do."

That night, everyone settled down in the Dwarf City.

There was no hotel or anything like that here, so they spent a lot of money to buy a house from a dwarf.

After all, they will be staying in this city for at least a month and must have a place to rest.

This made Lord curse in his heart again, these greedy guys.

Can't you learn from Som? He is also a dwarf, but he has none of the shortcomings of a dwarf. He only has a desire for glory.

Inside the room, Celie stood in front of the window, looking at the brightly lit forging workshop in the distance, wondering what she was thinking.

"What are you thinking about?" Lord came over and handed her a cup of hot tea.

Although the dwarves' textile craftsmanship is poor, it is at least better than adventuring in the wild.

Celie took the cup, and the warmth from her fingertips made her relax a little. "I was just thinking, once the holy sword is forged, you can use the magic power storage function to try to improve your magic power."

Lord was a little surprised: "No wonder you thought this holy sword was for me."
