He looks like he is in his eighties, his beard and hair are all white, but his movements are not slow at all, and he is full of energy.

Seems to be used to being scolded, the young man didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, this little brother came here from other places to ask you to forge knives..."

Eyes narrowed, the old man waved his hands, and his tone was not polite: "Forging knives? Get them decorations, so that they can go out and show off, and sell them for a big price? There are no doors!"

Seeing that this person was really not easy to talk to, Yang Yi's eyes flashed, and he said the words he had prepared before: "I accidentally got a piece of metal, it's a meteorite from the sky, it's extremely rare, and its density is much bigger than gold. Young... Since you don't want to refine weapons, then I'll go to the Devil's City and find Mr. Zhang Qingyuan, maybe he can do it!"

After speaking, he shook his head and was about to leave.

When a profession reaches its peak, it will inevitably generate great interest in related items, just like playing the piano. When you hear that the most expensive piano in the world is in front of you, you will definitely not be able to help but itch.

The person in front of him, since it is difficult to move in the normal way, let's just say that the metal is special, and see if he is tempted.

Coupled with the throwing of Zhang Qingyuan, there may be a turning point.

Sure enough, upon hearing his words, the old man frowned slightly: "Do you know Zhang Qingyuan?"

Yang Yi nodded, and took out the dagger he got from Zhang Xinyuan: "Master Chen should be able to recognize this weapon!"

Confused, the old man glanced at it, and immediately raised his eyebrows: "It is indeed his handwriting..."

As the top masters in the country, they can naturally recognize whether it is something forged by the other party.

This is similar to paintings and calligraphy. Even if there is no signature, professionals can tell whether it is authentic or not.

"This thing is so precious, that old guy Zhang Qingyuan can give it to you, it shows that your relationship is extraordinary..."

Throwing the dagger back, the old man no longer had the pride he had before, but looked over: "Show me the metal you mentioned!"

Zhang Qingyuan's weapon refining level is not inferior to his. If I really don't agree, let this go to the other party's side. Once I get a powerful weapon, wouldn't I miss the opportunity?

He is not so stupid!

Seeing that the other party had taken the bait, Yang Yi smiled slightly and handed the meteorite over.

The old man took it, and also felt his palm sink, his eyes showed surprise, then he took out the magnifying glass and special instruments, checked the boss for a while, and then let out a sigh of relief, saying: "This is indeed not something on the earth, at least I have learned forging for so many years, but I have never encountered it before. If I give it to Zhang Qingyuan...it must be a waste, I know his forging level! By the way...where did you get this thing?"

Yang Yi said: "I bought it from a grocery store. I don't know exactly where the other party came from!"

This is not a lie. Wang Yang said that this thing was obtained from the ancient tomb, but when he went to the tomb, he did not see the second piece. Whether it is true or not, the person is already dead, so there is no way to find out.

The old man said with emotion: "It's good luck that you can collect such things... What kind of weapon do you plan to forge?"

Yang Yi said: "For a two-inch blade, the width is about one finger. No shape is required, just sharp!"

Mind power is different from the physical body, and it is even more weird. It does not need to be forged to look like a dagger, nor does it need to be made into a short sword. As long as it is sharp enough, it can control the flight and explode with unparalleled power.

Hearing this request, the old man was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and his beard blew up in anger: "How can such a precious material be made into a blade?"

It has been more than 70 years since I learned forging, and it is the first time I have seen such a precious metal, making blades...it's too wasteful!

Yang Yi said with a smile: "No matter what is forged, it is the greatest respect to be able to use it in the true sense. It can't be forged, just keep it on the shelf!"

"This……"

Seeing that he came back with what he just said, the old man frowned.

Everyone who is good at casting hopes that the weapons they cast can be used in battle, instead of just sitting there to eat ashes.

Among the famous ancient weapons, Yuchang, Chunjun, Ganjiang, and Moxie, which one is not stained with blood and carries a poignant legend?I have never heard of it, and it has been placed on the shelf for people to watch, and it will become a famous sword.

However, in a society ruled by law now, the lethality of weapons is basically useless, and viewing has become the greatest use.

"Are you... a mutant?"

The old man looked over.

To become a leader in an industry, he is naturally not a fool, and his reaction is extremely fast.

If you want to use it, you must fight, and now... only this kind of person will do it.

Yang Yi nodded, and took out his identification card from his pocket: "Squadron leader of the action team, the purpose of forging weapons is to better kill illegal mutants, and I hope Mr. Chen can make it happen."

After carefully looking at the certificate, the old man Chen Nanyun didn't speak, but looked at the iron block in his hand again: "Let me see if this thing has plasticity, if not, everything will be in vain!"

For a metal to be forged into a weapon, many conditions are involved. Plasticity is the most important part. Without this characteristic, no matter how hard it is, it is useless. It is like diamond, which has a high hardness, but it cannot be forged into a weapon because Once heated to a certain temperature, it will be vaporized directly...

Knowing that the other party said this and agreed to help forging, Yang Yi was relieved.

The identity of the action team is really useful...at least it is used in the territory, and no one will give face.

Chen Nanyun didn't say any more, and pushed open a door.

Yang Yi followed. There was a furnace for forging and a low-temperature water tank for tempering. However, it was different from what he imagined. There was no coal, no hammers, but a series of machines.

Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Chen Nanyun explained: "The advent of the mechanical age, although it has a great impact on our profession and makes many people unemployed, it is not without any benefits. At least, we forging will no longer have to be done like before. Thanks for your hard work!"

In ancient times, it was recognized that there were three most difficult occupations, punting, blacksmithing, and selling tofu!

The so-called blacksmithing is the refining tool.

Accompanied by the stove all day, enduring the heat, like falling into purgatory, swinging a hammer for a lifetime, labor-intensive, dirty and tiring, not to mention, years of smoke and fire, the eyes can't stand it, many practitioners, age He died when he was young, and there are very few people who can live to his age.

With a sigh of emotion, Chen Nanyun turned his head and ordered: "Xiao Chao, turn on the electric arc furnace!"

"Yes!"

The young man who was watching the store came to a big box in the middle in two steps, pushed on the switch, and turned on the switch.

With a sound of "hum!", the temperature inside the glass window gradually increased and turned a little red, as if there were countless flames dancing inside.

On the outside monitor, a row of numbers kept jumping, from more than 20 before, it jumped to 500 in the blink of an eye, and it continued to increase.

"Is this the temperature?" Yang Yi asked.

"Ok!"

Chen Nanyun nodded, and introduced: "Before we forged, the coal we used, together with the blower, could only be heated to a thousand degrees at most, and it was difficult to melt steel. Now we use electricity! This is what I specially asked a friend from abroad to The vacuum electric arc furnace I ordered is the most suitable for refining!"

During the introduction, the temperature inside the furnace was getting higher and higher. Chen Nanyun put the meteorite in his hand in a groove, and then a mechanical arm emerged, sending the stone into the center of the furnace.

Yang Yi looked at the display screen, and with the roar of the machine, the temperature on it kept beating, breaking through 1000 degrees in the blink of an eye.

The meteorite is dark and does not seem to have changed in any way.

At [-] degrees, ordinary steel turns red, but this thing doesn't even change its color. No wonder Wang Yang couldn't succeed no matter what.

The machine roared and the temperature continued to increase.

"It is indeed much better than a coal stove..."

Yang Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

In the past, the coal stove was full of gas, and the heat wave was unbearable. Now all the smoke and flames are enclosed in the furnace body, and the heat is also discharged outside by special pipes. The room does not look too hot. hot.

Most importantly, the temperature is higher!

Soon, the number on the display jumped to 2000 degrees.

The meteorite is still dark, as if it is not afraid of flames at all.

"Such a high melting point?"

Chen Nanyun was not surprised but delighted.

The higher the melting point, the more powerful the weapon refined from this meteorite will be!Could it be that he could really create a peerless magic weapon that was unimaginable before!

If you really want to do this, it's worth it for a lifetime.

People with purer careers have stronger obsessions, like Yuzuru Hanyu, who has an almost distorted obsession with 4a, and would rather not have an Olympic gold medal but display it in competitions.

The same is true for people like Chen Nanyun and Zhang Qingyuan. Their greatest expectation is to forge a peerless weapon, even if they die for it, it is worth it!

Before, I didn’t dare to think about it. After all, it’s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and it’s useless to have technology without materials, but now... the meteorite in front of me is very likely to be the best material!

Fortunately, I didn't miss it, otherwise, I will regret it for the rest of my life!

After waiting for a while, the temperature rose to 3000 degrees visible to the naked eye, and the meteorite was still black, as if it would not melt at all.

But there is still a long way to go before melting.

It is said that real gold is not afraid of fire, but the melting point of gold is only 1064 degrees, which is [-] degrees, and the appearance has not changed, which is really scary!

Continue to push the switch, and soon, the words 4000 are displayed on the LCD screen, and the power of the electric arc furnace in front of you has also reached its limit.

"Grandpa, it doesn't seem to work, the temperature has already increased to the highest!"

Xiao Chao raised his eyebrows and shouted out.

Yang Yi saw that the switch of the machine was pushed to the end, that is to say, this electric arc furnace can only burn up to [-] degrees, and... the meteorite in front of him is still dark, and its appearance has not changed at all!

"This……"

Chen Nanyun also frowned, his face became unsightly.

Today's scientific laboratories can increase the temperature to tens of millions of degrees, but civilian machines can reach this temperature, far surpassing more than 95% of the equipment in the world.

It didn't melt at this temperature... The melting point of this meteorite is too high!

Is it necessary to rush to more than 5000 degrees?

Not to mention machines with such a high temperature, it is difficult to buy in China, even if there are, the ceramic mechanical arms can't bear it!

He obviously had the opportunity to break through himself and forge a further weapon, so that he would be famous forever, but he failed completely because he couldn't heat it up...

If you really want to do this, you will not be reconciled to death.

Chen Nanyun clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were a little anxious.

"Old Chen, what can I do?"

Also showing anxiety, Yang Yi couldn't help but look over.

Could it be that this time, like Wang Yang back then, he will return without success?

2 Forty Chapters Dragon Clothes

Squinting his eyes, Chen Nanyun pondered for a moment, and said, "Now there are two directions. First, increase the furnace temperature... This requires the purchase of a more powerful electric arc furnace, but it is difficult to buy this thing. It can be used without half a year to a year, it is impossible to complete."

Yang Yi was speechless.

After half a year, he must have broken through to the catastrophe level, and if he wants weapons, it will be of little use!

Chen Nanyun: "Second, lower the melting point of this stone so that it can melt at 4000 degrees!"

Seeing that the young man was puzzled, he explained: "You should know the catalyst in chemistry. It doesn't react with the object itself, but it can speed up the reaction process. There is also this kind of thing in the refining tool... as long as you can find it, it can also reduce the meteorite. melting point without damaging its structure..."

Yang Yi frowned: "This thing is not easy to find!"

Chen Nanyun nodded: "Yes! This meteorite has never been seen before, and I have never seen any historical records. There are hundreds of commonly used catalysts. It will take a very long time to experiment one by one. damage it, changing the structure."

Yang Yi: "Then there is no other way?"

Chen Nanyun: "I can only think of these two..."

At this moment, Xiaochao in front of the boiler interjected: "Grandpa, you said... Is it possible to increase the power of the arc to this furnace and make the temperature even higher?"

"Add arc?"

Chen Nanyun was taken aback, and smiled wryly: "The principle of the electric arc furnace is to transmit electric energy into the furnace through the electrodes, and then the electrodes interact with the furnace material to generate an electric arc to increase the temperature in the furnace, and finally the high temperature melts the ore and metals... the power of the arc Increase, it can increase the temperature, where can I find the arc? Lightning can be done, but you can’t move the furnace outside and wait for the thunder!”

"This……"

Thinking of something, Yang Yi's eyes lit up: "I have mutated the ability of thunder and lightning, I don't know if it will be useful!"

"Lightning?"

Chen Nanyun looked puzzled.

He didn't know much about mutants, and he had never seen a lightning mutant, so he didn't know what it would be like to show his power.

"That's right, it's my body that can release thunder!"

Yang Yi smiled slightly, holding the ball with both hands on his chest.

Crackling!

The next moment, from the fingertips of the ten fingers, one after another blue lightning surged out, and the powerful current instantly shattered the air, causing the whole room to smell of ozone.

At this time, the hairs all over his body were standing on end, and the electric lights in his pupils were constantly swimming, like a thundering dragon. Chen Nanyun and Xiao Chao took a look, and they all felt their scalps go numb, and their faces turned pale with fright.

Is this the mutant?

terrible!

call!
