Chapter 153: Forge a Fire Ring!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Klein didn't recognize the cart the patriarch had pushed out. There was a hammer on it, as well as some iron-type items.
“What are you doing?” Klein couldn't help but ask.
“Heh heh, I can forge a prop that is exclusive to you,” the patriarch said with a smile, a hint of pride in his eyes.
Seeing Klein's confusion, the patriarch continued, “Our props are different from other props. You have to know that we Smurfs have lived for thousands of years. Furthermore, our earliest ancestors were craftsmen. We would spend our lives and research on how to create excellent props, and then pa.s.s down the results of our research. It was only until our generation that we had very mature craftsmanship skills.”
“Therefore, there's no problem with the quality of the items we forge. Furthermore, the quality of the items is much higher than all of your previous items. You can rest a.s.sured about this,” the patriarch said to Klein.
Klein nodded and quietly watched from the side.
The patriarch didn't say any more nonsense. He pushed the cart into an empty s.p.a.ce and took out the hammer. He held it in his hand, lit it up, and placed the items one after another.
The remaining members of the Smurf tribe watched from the side.
Generally speaking, anyone who could win the favor of the Smurfs would receive a tool that they had personally forged.
However, these tools were all forged by other Smurfs in the tribe.
Of course, these Smurfs definitely had extremely exquisite forging skills.
And now, the patriarch had personally forged a tool for Klein.
This truly touched and shocked the tribesmen!
Although they looked very thin and weak, they were already three to four hundred years old.
In these three to four hundred years, when had they ever seen the patriarch personally forge a prop for someone else?
The patriarch was the most powerful in forging a prop!
There was no doubt about that!
But it was precisely because of this that the Lord Patriarch had never personally forged a prop.
Even the other clansmen had never seen the patriarch personally forge a prop even though they had learned the skills to forge a prop from the patriarch.
“The Lord Patriarch is going to personally forge a prop… Oh my G.o.d, this Klein is too lucky.”
“Not only is Klein lucky, we're lucky too. You have to know, this is the first time we've seen the Lord Patriarch forge a prop!”
“We're really lucky to be able to follow him. This time, we must learn from the Lord Patriarch how to forge a prop. Who knows, our strength might increase rapidly after seeing it!”
The Smurfs who had followed them were naturally extremely excited. At the same time, they were extremely grateful to Klein.
They decided to properly repay Klein before he left!
The patriarch began forging.
Before forging, he asked Klein about his current needs for props.
Since he could only forge one item, Klein thought carefully and decided to forge a prop that could improve his fire elemental abilities.
The patriarch continuously rotated the hammer, and it struck the iron item heavily.
There were quite a few sparks.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound was very clear.
Klein was instantly mesmerized by it,
Seeing the patriarch forging, it was the first time Klein felt that forging could be so attractive.
Little Fox and Little Wind were also fascinated by it.
It was the first time they saw forging, and it was also the first time they had heard of it.
There was actually such an interesting thing in this world!
Thus, they kept watching.
The patriarch was very fast at blacksmithing.
To be more precise, he was getting faster and faster.
Seeing this, the other Smurfs were completely engrossed in it.
This technique, this strength, this skill… They were completely crushed.
They considered themselves to be very strong blacksmiths.
They had also produced many powerful weapons or items.
But just by looking at the process of the patriarch forging, they actually felt that all the iron they had forged over the years were useless!
Taking a deep breath, these Smurfs felt that they had received 10,000 points of shock!
Time pa.s.sed by minute by minute.
Finally, the patriarch completed the final strike.
A brand new ring appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
In the middle of the entire ring was a red crystal-like thing.
The rest was silver-white.
Under the illumination of the light through the gaps in the leaves, it reflected a dazzling light.
“This is the Fire Ring. I'm giving it to you in the hope that you can increase your strength. Don't worry, as long as you wear this ring, your strength will definitely experience a qualitative leap.”
The patriarch was very satisfied with the Fire Ring he had created.
He handed the Fire Ring to Klein.
Klein took the Fire Ring and could still feel the residual heat on it.
He wore it on the middle finger of his right hand.
In an instant, Klein felt a flame burning in his body.
This was a signal that the energy of the flame was increasing!
Klein was shocked. The power of the flame was actually so powerful!
It was at least three times more powerful than Klein's previous flame!
He thanked the patriarch and stayed there for a while before he planned to leave.
The patriarch and Klein thanked him a few more times.
“Thank you.”
The patriarch looked at Klein and said, “After leaving this catacomb, there are some other Elven catacombs not far away. They also like desserts very much. If you can satisfy them, they will also create powerful props for you.”
Klein silently remembered this point.
Then, the patriarch waved his hand and returned to the hole in the ancient tree.
The other Smurfs were responsible for escorting Klein away.
When they reached the entrance of the catacomb, the Smurfs took out an envelope and handed it to Klein.
The Smurf smiled and said, “We once saved an Elk Queen, and it agreed to meet one of our conditions. However, after we returned to the catacomb, we rarely went out because of the frequent disturbances outside. This is a keepsake. Because of you, we only saw the patriarch forge iron personally today and learned a lot! To thank you, we'll give you this condition. As long as you take this letter to the Elk Queen, it will fulfill one of your conditions.”
Klein took the envelope and was surprised by the sincerity of the Smurfs.
After leaving the catacomb, Klein continued his journey to the next catacomb.
The Elk Queen, an Elf who liked desserts just like the Smurfs, was enough for Klein to look forward to the rest of his journey.
Furthermore, Klein looked at the Flame Ring on his middle finger and felt extremely excited.
With this increase in strength, even the Cactus Monster King would probably be instantly killed by the flames.
Beside him, Little Fox and Little Wind were also extremely happy for Klein's increase in strength.
The man and two beasts continued to advance towards the next catacomb.
