Chapter 39 Crafting Knuckle Dusters
"So, little girl, what kind of weapon do you want to forge?"
Enzo, the blacksmith, looked Sovia up and down and offered his opinion:
"Young lady, your physique is not suitable for heavy weapons. In my opinion, short swords and daggers are the most suitable for you."
Upon hearing this, Sovia quickly waved her hand, took a step back, and gave her seat to the earth elemental.
Yue Feng had been preparing for this day for a long time.
As the rock sand inside his body slowly writhed, a small white and green talc emerged from his fingertip.
He then used a piece of soapstone to draw the outline of a brass knuckle on the table.
Fearing the blacksmith wouldn't understand, Yue Feng specially used rock sand to sculpt a rock knuckle duster on his right fist.
"Oh, so that's what you want to make."
Enzo's gaze remained fixed on Sovia, and only after seeing her nod repeatedly did he continue:
"It's not difficult."
Neither Yue Feng nor Enzo could understand what the other was saying.
The man and the blacksmith communicated for a long time in the blacksmith's shop, gesturing and pointing.
The final price was set at thirty silver coins.
This price includes the cost of trial and error.
Enzo had never made this type of weapon before, so he needed to make several iron samples in the forging workshop to familiarize himself with the forging process.
You can pick up the goods in five days.
Yue Feng has been in this world for about five or six months.
As an earth elementalist, he originally thought he would never need money in his life.
"It seems that embedding gemstones in the eyes and then removing them to exchange for money is indeed a reliable method. I need to save up more in the future."
And so, Yue Feng paid the deposit of 10 silver coins and left the blacksmith shop with Sovia.
"Haa~~ Mr. Earth Elemental, can I go back to sleep now?"
Sovia yawned heavily and asked.
Yue Feng saw the other person yawning repeatedly, shook his head, and refused:
"Sleep? Sleep what? Only useless people to the empire sleep!"
"How can an adventurer as outstanding as you sleep in? Let's go train!"
then.
Yue Feng grabbed Suoweiya's arm and ran straight out of Huangsui Town.
Sovia was weak and unable to resist the pull of the earth element, so she could only be dragged along.
Outside Huangsui Town.
"Come on, shoot me with your fire arrows. I want to test the damage tolerance of this earthen body."
Yuefeng chewed on the rocky sand road.
Knowing that Sovia couldn't understand the Tu language, he raised his hand and repeatedly snapped his fingers to signal her.
Fingertips rubbed together, sparks flying.
"Um......"
Sovia thought for a while before she understood what Mr. Earth Elemental wanted to express.
"Fire Arrow!"
Magic flowed into the oak staff, and a ball of flame rose from its tip, shooting straight toward the earth elemental.
"boom!"
Yue Feng neither dodged nor avoided the flames as they struck him, and the flames exploded with a deafening roar.
The surface of the rock and soil was scorched by the intense fire, rapidly drying, cracking, and rolling over, with a few pieces of stone mixed with sand falling to the ground.
I didn't feel anything at all; not even the status bar popped up.
Yue Feng ordered, "Continue!"
He did this because he had accidentally discovered the weakness of the earth element during his previous battle against the goblin Devor.
Logically, the Frostbolt shouldn't have caused him any damage.
After all, Yue Feng is made of earth and stone, so there's no reason for him to be afraid of a lump of ice.
At that time.
Yue Feng was indeed unharmed, but after taking the attack, he felt extremely uncomfortable and strange all over his body.
He had a vague premonition that if he were to be attacked by the ice arrows a few more times, his body would begin to break down.
Faced with something that defies common sense.
Yue Feng is determined to get to the bottom of this!
"Fire Arrow!"
Sovia swung her oak staff and fired a fourth flaming arrow.
"boom!"
Flames exploded on Yue Feng's body, only peeling off a few rock fragments.
Suddenly, a small patch of rock and sand on the surface of the body began to loosen and collapse inexplicably.
Ding.
Condition: Slightly damaged
"As expected! I'm just tough enough; I can't be completely immune to spell attacks!"
Yue Feng thought about it and agreed that it made sense.
He might be able to move freely in the burning inferno, but he cannot ignore the magical flames.
After all.
The key is not ordinary flames, but magical fire imbued with enchantment.
Just as ordinary cold air cannot harm him, but ice arrows imbued with magic can cause damage.
Of course, if he encounters a flame capable of melting his body, that would be a different story.
"Fortunately, most elemental damage is useless against me."
I approached it with a "let's give it a try" attitude.
Yue Feng made up his mind to have Sovia bombard him with fire arrows every day until her magic was exhausted.
That was just speculation before. Whether or not we can develop attribute resistance will only be known after we've been battling for a while longer.
Completely unaware of the situation, Sovia looked bewildered and said softly:
"Oh dear, Mr. Earth Elemental is injured. Well then, let's call it a day!"
As she spoke, she grabbed the Earth Element's arm, indicating that she wanted to go back to her aunt's house to sleep in.
Yue Feng remained silent, focusing instead on examining Sovia's attribute panel.
Ding.
[Name: Sovia Agraria (lv5)]
[Status]: Slightly low mana
"Isn't there still a huge amount of magic left? Keep casting!"
As soon as Yue Feng finished speaking, he instantly repaired the damage to the earthen and stone body.
Although repairing damaged parts is indeed very difficult, minor damage is almost equivalent to no injury at all.
"Waaah~ I want to sleep, Mr. Earth Elemental, please let me go home and sleep..."
Sovia puffed out her cheeks and said in a spoiled manner.
Just then, a familiar voice rang out from the gate of Huangsui Town.
"Sovya, are you diligently practicing your magic?"
Sovia's father, Aaron, was slowly driving the oxcart towards them.
"She's truly my daughter; she puts in so much effort in everything she does!"
"I have to go back to the village to harvest the wheat. I'll come back to pick you up in six or seven days."
After saying this, Aaron got into the oxcart and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the distance.
"Fire Arrow!"
"Again!"
"Fire Arrow!"
"Again!"
......
After a while, Sovia collapsed on the ground, exhausted, and fell into a deep sleep while sunbathing.
Yue Feng stared at her attribute panel.
"This stamina is terrible; she collapsed after only a short time."
He gently shook his head, not intending to wake the sleeping Sovia, and began to hone his martial arts skills alone.
The most urgent task now is to quickly level up my Charge and Clay Sculpture skills.
Once I get the brass knuckles in a few days, it really will be a case of the left fist dealing more damage and the right fist dealing more damage.
"If I have time in the future, I can try to learn an elbow strike technique."
Yue Feng muttered to himself.
After all, in close combat, elbow strikes are far more powerful, faster, and more lethal than punches, and they also save more energy.
"Miss Agraria! Let's do the guild quest together tomorrow!"
In the distance, Clancy, the captain of the Lark Squad, ran up and shouted.
Startled by the shout, Sovia sat bolt upright, her eyes still heavy with sleep, and mumbled:
"What...what delicious food should I make?"
"It's not food, it's an adventure quest. We got a pretty interesting quest from the guild today."
As soon as Krankie finished speaking, he immediately corrected himself and added:
"To be precise, it's a commission that Millie is very interested in."
"Overnight, a village was suddenly filled with zombies and skeletons!"
