“Long-short sword? Bull God, you mean Awry Blades? I didn’t think you would use such a complicated weapon,” Choba said in surprise.
“You know what’s an Awry Blade?” Wang Yu’s surprise was no less than Choba’s. Nowadays, the number of people who understood weapons were nowhere more than those who knew martial arts... Even those who practiced martial arts might not know such an unpopular weapon.
Choba said, “My grandfather told me about it.”
“Oh? Your grandfather knows martial arts?” Wang Yu asked out of curiosity. Although there were only four big families in the martial arts world with a long history of practice, there were still some traditional martial artists who insisted on passing down their skills.
“How could we understand such things? My grandfather made weapons for people but when it came to my dad, he only made farming equipment for people. Now that technology is so advanced, I can’t even make farming equipment so I can only cure my itch in the game.” Choba gave a bitter smile and his eyes were filled with regret.
“Sigh...” Wang Yu empathetically patted Choba’s shoulders as he understood the loss of inherited skills. How was martial arts any difference? In recent years, the country had been promoting the inheritance of traditional skill but with society progressing, unnecessary things were ultimately eliminated...
When they were eliminated, no one inherited them so no matter how many youths thought about them, they had already been lost or crowned as a relic... What a pity...
Martial arts families and forging families were related. Now that Martial Arts had become a legend, could weapons escape its fate?
Finishing their conversation, Choba squinted and took out a feather pen then seriously drew on the goat’s skin.
He was indeed in this line of work as normal people probably did not know what Awry Blades were but Choba expertly and quickly sketched a set of Awry Blades.
The long blade was thinner and its grip was not long but it bent inwards for the convenience of hooking onto weapons.
The short blade was like a fork. The last ring hole on the blade only had one ring to easily complement the longsword in picking and hooking...
Seeing Choba sketch, Wang Yu got emotional. Yes, this was the real Awry Blades, much better than the imitation he matched on his own.
The next moment, Choba finished the 3D sketch too. Wang Yu was surprised when he saw the two blade’s ring holes.
Choba designed these ring holes differently from the usual circular ones. These were in a plum flower shape and bent inwards a little. They did not only look good, but they were also designed strategically to be useful for hooking.
“I like this plum flower!” Wang Yu told Choba as he looked at the blueprint.
“Hehe, I came up with that.” Choba laughed and handed Wang Yu the blueprint, then asked him, “What else do you need?”
“Another shield please.” Wang Yu excitedly said after taking over the blueprint.
As the BOSS’s levels were higher, they had more range magic spells which made dodging tricky for Wang Yu. Hence, he needed a shield for his entire body.
“Ok!” Choba nodded and began sketching. He quickly drew a shield.
The shield Choba designed was not those shields Guardians used which were almost two metres tall. It was a circular shield with a diameter of less than one metre. Its smaller design was very suitable for agile jobs like Pugilists. Moreover, the shield’s edge was a round of sharp blades for not only defence but also for attack, something very useful.
“Looks good!”
Wang Yu took the shield’s blueprint and smiled widely. Honestly, ever since he started playing the game, Wang Yu had never felt so intimate to a weapon design.
He first placed all the ingredients and sacrificial offering into the operation column then put in the two blueprints. After some thought, Wang Yu put on the title of a “Divine Smith”, then clicked reforge.
“Please fill in the forger’s name or message!” When the forged weapon’s level exceeded gold, it would have its forger’s name carved on it for memory’s sake. Seems like Wang Yu’s weapon would not be below gold level.
“Choba 345, Iron Bull.” Wang Yu casually entered both their names.
The operation column began the forging. As Wang Yu’s ingredients and blueprints were of too high level, the system spent thirty seconds processing them.
After thirty seconds, a ray of purple light shone from Wang Yu’s table.
At the same time, a system notification appeared: Players “Choba 345”, “Iron Bull” cooperated to forge an ancient grade weapon “Martial Artist’s Regret”. Their names will forever be recorded in the annals.
The notification was sent three times into the sky over everyone. Not only those near Wang Yu, but even the players elsewhere were also stunned.
“F*ck, ancient grade weapon? Forged? I thought players could only forge up to obsidian grade?”
Indeed, players could only forge up to obsidian grade but Wang Yu reforged an original weapon so it was different.
“I know Iron Bull but who is Choba 345? Is there such a person amongst the four high-level Blacksmiths?” some people noticed Choba’s name beside Wang Yu’s.
“I don’t know... I’ve never heard of him.”
While everyone wondered who Choba was, Choba emotionally tugged Wang Yu’s sleeves and emotionally said, “Iron Bull, you included my name.”
Wang Yu said, “You designed the weapons so your name should be included. I only collected the materials...”
“I... I don’t know how to thank you...” Choba clutched his hands and teared up, not knowing what to say.
To Wang Yu, it was just adding a few words but to a casual player, Wang Yu’s act meant a lot to him...
Choba spent days making weapons knowing that it was tough to survive in this industry. As a professional Blacksmith, he did not have time to manage his business so studios earned all the money. Other than his daily expenses, he did not have much left. Professional players did this for money but Choba not only did not earn money, but he also had to fork out money for point cards...
However, all this just changed. Wang Yu’s casual act made Choba one of the forgers of the first-ever forged ancient grade weapon. Even the top four Blacksmiths could not compare to him, would he have to worry about money?
To anyone whose talent was not recognised, acknowledgement was way more important than money... Hence, Wang Yu’s acknowledgement which can bring Choba money meant a lot to him.
Wang Yu smiled, “There’s nothing to thank. You deserve it, even without me. Later go to Hans Inn and look for Fearless. Tell him that I asked you to look for him and he will bring you to complete the entry quest. I have already informed him.”
“Ok... Alright.” Choba nodded anxiously and said, “Fearless? That Fearless?”
Wang Yu broke out in a sweat, “Don’t worry, they are not as bad as you’ve heard... Just a little b*stard...”
“...” Choba was speechless for a while then said, “Alright, but can I see the weapon we forged?”
“Of course.” Wang Yu generously changed the weapon’s attribute settings to public.
