Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 1204
Chapter 1204: A Success
Lu Yun returned to Su Mo’s residence the next morning and gave Su Mo the materials as well as an Imperial Class crafting furnace.
He gave Su Mo the exact amount of materials for forging twenty Profound Axes, no more, no less.
Lu Yun earned 30 percent in profit.
The value of the ten Imperial Class treasures was quite high, while the materials were cheap. Lu Yun could have earned more than 60 percent profit if the crafting furnace wasn’t included.
Su Mo was aware of that, but he didn’t care about the money since he had a plan.
After receiving the materials, Su Mo entered the crafting room and prepared everything.
Su Mo was ambitious. He had never forged a Royal Class weapon, and now he wanted to forge a much higher level Imperial weapon.
Inside the crafting room.
A huge crafting furnace was placed at the center of the room with twenty portions of crafting materials laid next to it.
Su Mo sat on the ground with his legs crossed, looking dignified.
“Senior Ou Lianzi once told me that I have a supreme willpower talent and that I am a gifted craftsman. I hope his words are true!” Su Mo took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
He needed to go through the process in his head several times so that he would make as few mistakes as possible.
Su Mo had confidence. With his talented willpower, if he stuck to the steps recorded in the craftsmanship Legacy without making any mistake, he would successfully forge an Abyss Axe.
After a while, Su Mo opened his eyes and began to forge a Profound Ax.
Swish!
As he waved his hands, the furnace lid opened and dozens of materials flew into the crafting furnace.
He then closed the lid and started the fire.
Ferocious Dark Force of fire property was injected into the air vent and turned into flames.
Dozens of materials in the furnace calcined by the raging flames crackled continuously. Eventually, Su Mo began putting a certain amount of materials into the furnace every half hour.
After a short while, had Su Mo placed over a hundred materials in the furnace.
The forging process had to be monitored carefully. The temperature inside the furnace had to be precisely controlled or the whole process would fail.
What’s more, each material required a different forging temperature, which required the craftsman to have a strong control ability.
The duration and degree of heating had to be carefully controlled because even a small difference would lead to the failure of the whole process.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
After a series of sizzling sounds, Su Mo’s first attempt failed.
It was because one of the materials had overheated.
Phew!
Su Mo took a deep breath. He didn’t rush into the second attempt. Instead, he thought over the whole process to understand where it had gone wrong.
Failure was not frightening. What was frightening was not knowing the cause of the failure.
What he needed to do was to improve his skill step by step. He must not make the same mistake twice!
After one hour, Su Mo started to forge again after cleaning up the crafting furnace.
The second time was smoother than the first. He calcined over 360 materials.
However, because the temperature of the melting furnace was slightly lower when he was cooking the last two elements, the quality of the embryo solution failed to meet the requirements, and the process ended up a failure once more.
Su Mo rested for about an hour and reviewed all the mistakes he made before beginning to forge once again.
The third attempt: failed!
The fourth attempt: failed!
The 12th attempt: failed!
The 13th attempt: failed!
The 14th attempt: failed!
The 15th attempt: succeeded!
So Mo forged for three days and three nights straight and finally succeeded on the 15th attempt.
Phew!
Su Mo picked up the battleax that had already cooled down in the furnace and studied it carefully.
This was a short handle ax with a handle less than a meter long, but its head was as large as a small table top.
The whole ax was dark as ink, and its blade was blunt.
However, the ax was so heavy that Su Mo felt as if he was holding a small mountain in his hand instead of a weapon.
Its heaviness was the most significant feature because more than a hundred materials that were used in the forging process were heavy.
“Low quality!” Su Mo muttered. Although this was an Imperial Lower Class weapon, its quality was terrible and was probably the worst weapon of the Imperial Lower Class weapons.
However, this was still a precious Imperial Lower Class Weapon.
“Whatever!” Su Mo smiled. As long as he was capable of forging this weapon, he could join the Craftsman Union.
If he joined the Union, the experts in the Union could possibly help him deal with the two Honorables from the Sorcerer Tribe.
A moment later, Su Mo continued to forge axes. He didn’t want to waste the remaining five portions of materials.
Besides, he had succeeded only once and was still unfamiliar with the process. He needed to practice some more.
Five hours later, Su Mohad used up all of the crafting materials he had.
On his last five attempts, he only failed once, and he became more and more familiar with the forging process.
Without further delay, Su Mo left the room to find Steward Chai, ready to take the test.
He didn’t inform Qin Busi and went alone.
As far as Su Mo was concerned, he had to pass the test and become a craftsman in the Union as quickly as possible.
Ten miles from the Craftsman Union.
Inside a luxurious inn, Wu Fan and Wu Yin stood by the window looking at the Craftsman Union nearby.
“What’s happening? These two aborigines have been in the Craftsman Union for five days. Why haven’t they came out?”
Wu Fan said sullenly. He was anxious because he couldn’t use spiritual consciousness to look inside the Craftsman Union.
“Are they settled in the Union?” The expression on Wu Yin’s aged face was also gloomy.
If this were the case, they would be in trouble!
“Well, you should lead the disciples back to Heavenly Underworld Star while I go inside to take a look!” Wu Fan said after pondering.
They were here to kill Su Mo and Qin Busi. Their disciples who had survived the trial test in the Firmament World were hidden inside a Spatial Device that they carried.
They brought the disciples with them because the star where the Firmament World located was exceptionally far from the Heavenly Underworld Star. Without their guidance, it would take those disciples three to five years to return to their home star.
“Alright!” Wu Yin nodded. It had been a long time since the end of the trial test. The people of the tribe must be worried about them now.
However, they were afraid that the senior management of the tribe would be furious that they had lost over 900 geniuses during the test. The news would be a bombshell!
However, they couldn’t hide this news. Eventually, they had to come clean.
“Do whatever you need to do! Don’t let these two aborigines escape!” Wu Yin said.
“Don’t worry! They can’t escape from me!”
Wu Fan replied with confidence. He was an Honorable of the Martial Honored Realm, if these two aborigines got away, he wouldn’t deserve the title.
“En, and you’d better not fight with them in the Union!” Wu Yin advised. The Craftsman Union was too powerful to mess with.
Besides, they were just a side cluster of the Sorcerer Tribe. They were not as powerful as the main branch.
Having said that, Wu Yin disappeared from the room in a flash.
Wu Fan glanced at the Craftsman Union with a trace of murder. Then, he disappeared from the room as well.
