Chapter 954: Chapter 352: The Road to Wealth, Market Price Fluctuations

Cao Xing nodded slightly, “I understand. Since breaking through to master level is difficult, there’s no need to force it. Just continue working at your current pace.”

Then he looked behind him.

“These two little guys are named Sale and Bodi. From now on, they’ll assist you here.”

Harold and Putana exchanged a glance, naturally noticing the two little ones Cao Xing brought.

For the request of their Lord, they absolutely could not refuse.

The dwarf blacksmith laughed heartily, “Little ones, the forging trade is very tough, can you endure it?”

“Not only must you endure the scorching high temperatures of the forging furnace every day, but also swing heavy iron hammers repeatedly until your arms ache and become numb without resting.”

“In addition, you cannot rest even after work; you must learn various knowledge from books to discern the traits and quality of materials.”

“Different ores have different hardness, toughness, and magic attributes. Only by accurately identifying them can you choose the most suitable materials during forging and create the finest equipment.”

Hearing this, the two young boys exchanged a glance and solemnly nodded: “Sir, we’re not afraid of hardship, we will surely endure!”

They knew this was the most important opportunity in their life to change their destiny!

Even if they die of exhaustion in the blacksmith shop, they must persist!

Harold didn’t speak and instead focused his gaze on the two children.

Sale and Bodi, after the initial shock and confusion, now also locked eyes with him.

From their determined gaze, Harold seemed to see himself as a child.

The same burning desire, the same persistence.

He nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll accept you.”

“From today on, I will be your master.”

“Remember, my name is Harold Iceberg.”

Upon hearing this, the two young boys’ faces instantly showed a look of surprise!

Then they simultaneously knelt down, paying homage to Harold.

This time, Cao Xing didn’t stop them.

Because in their view, becoming an apprentice essentially means fully following the master.

It’s equivalent to a ceremony of apprenticeship.

After the ceremony, they officially became blacksmith apprentices.

Of course, this is their identity within the territory.

To reflect this on their stat panel, they have to first master the skill [Basic Forging Mastery].

However, with their talent of [Artisan’s Enlightenment], which accelerates learning by 30%, getting started shouldn’t be difficult.

After the ceremony.

Harold also nodded slightly, “Alright, come to my side.” Thıs text ıs hosted at novęlfire.net

Sale and Bodi immediately got up from the ground and respectfully stood behind Harold and Putana.

The dwarf blacksmith looked at Cao Xing and solemnly said.

“Lord, please issue a new task. Should we continue crafting Nightmare Arrows or forge equipment?”

Having just become an expert-level blacksmith, he was eager to showcase his skills.

Cao Xing smiled and shook his head, “We can pause crafting the Nightmare Arrows.”

“This time, I obtained a batch of new materials. Have a look at the materials.”

After saying this, he took out all the tiger bones from saber-toothed tigers, along with their sword-teeth, and that leader-level saber-toothed tiger fur.

Suddenly, the ground was piled with various snow-white tiger bones!

These tiger bones, alongside the couple of sword-teeth, exuded an extremely fierce aura!

The two blacksmith apprentices on the side felt waves of powerful blood qi coming at them, making their already pale faces turn even paler like paper!

When the couple saw the bones and sword-teeth on the ground, their pupils suddenly shrank.

They could both see that the quality of these materials was extremely high!

Especially Harold.

His gaze was firmly locked onto the massive sword-teeth which were as long as thirty to forty centimeters!

“What an astonishing sword-teeth, I can even feel a piercing power from them.”

“The former owner of these sword-teeth must have been extremely powerful!”

Cao Xing exclaimed, “You’re right. This is from a saber-toothed tiger with sixth rank leader level strength, its sword-teeth contain a destructive power.”

Harold showed a look of realization, “I see, even such precious materials can be obtained, truly deserving of praise, Lord!”

After saying this, he couldn’t wait to squat down and started examining these various materials from the saber-toothed tiger!

There were a total of 10 sword-teeth, among which eight are of purple grade and two are of golden grade.

Due to the special nature of the materials, these sword-teeth contain the strongest power of the saber-toothed tiger.

When forged into equipment, there is a probability to enhance the quality.

That means the purple sword-teeth have a chance to be forged into golden equipment.

Golden quality sword-teeth have a chance to be forged into orange epic weapons.

After inspecting for a while, Harold praised, “Good, all are of high-quality tiger bones.”

“If these tiger bones are used to create light armor, it would have exceedingly high defensive power!”

“This many tiger bones are enough to forge over thirty sets of purple light armor.”

“And those leader-level tiger bones can forge five sets of golden quality light armor.”

Upon hearing this number, Cao Xing was taken aback.

Isn’t this just tailor-made for his Dragon Blood Warrior Corps?

Over thirty sets of purple light armor for the dragon blood warriors below.

Five sets of golden light armor can be given to Commander Bojie and the four leader-level dragon blood warriors below.

In this way, Dragon Blood Warriors, who specialize in destruction and combat, can greatly enhance their defensive power with these light armors!
