119: Smelting special weapon, strange figure
“You won, you heart-piercing guy! Sister will smelt it for you, but smelting has a failure rate. The higher the Forging Master level, the lower the failure rate. I'm already a Six-Revolutions Forging Master, so you can rest assured about the success rate,” Autumn Leaf said through gritted teeth.
As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up a piece of equipment and began smelting.
[Smelting Target: Batian Staff]
[Level 120 Finished Exclusive Weapon, Smelt?]
[Yes] [No]
“Yes!”
[Smelting failed, equipment disappeared.]
“…”
She continued to pick up a robe.
[Smelting Target: Batian Robe]
[Level 120 Finished Exclusive Weapon, Start Smelting?]
[Yes] [No]
“Yes!”
[Smelting failed, equipment disappeared.]
Autumn Leaf’s pretty face instantly flushed red. She looked at Lin Ling with some embarrassment, only to find him already covered in black lines.
“Um… the success rate for Six-Revolutions seems… a tiny bit low. Do you still want to smelt?” Autumn Leaf asked awkwardly.
This slap in the face came too quickly.
She had just boasted, and then two consecutive attempts failed.
Lin Ling didn't speak. He recalled whether there was a smelting function in the Forging Master panel when he was in the cocoon-breaking state before.
He quickly confirmed that there shouldn't be.
He was a little helpless and could only nod, “Continue, I hope your luck is a bit better.”
Autumn Leaf let out an awkward laugh and quickly picked up a wristguard.
As she confirmed, the smelting system immediately responded.
[Smelting failed, equipment disappeared.]
At this moment, Autumn Leaf was almost in tears.
“I really didn't mean it, I've smelted before, it wasn't this hard.”
Seeing her eyes red, Lin Ling could only encourage her, “Come on, it's okay. Even if they all fail, I'll still teach you Enchantment Stone Purification.”
Hearing this, Autumn Leaf felt even worse.
This little brother is quite warm, but I'm so useless.
She took a deep breath, and her already magnificent chest once again became a bit more prominent.
[Smelting Target: Batian Wristguard (Right)]
“Yes!”
[Smelting failed, equipment disappeared.]
[Smelting Target: Batian Pants.]
[Smelting failed, equipment disappeared.]
[Smelting Target: Batian Boots]
[Level 120 Finished Exclusive Weapon, Smelt?]
[Yes] [No]
Autumn Leaf clenched her fists tightly.
“Yes!”
A golden light suddenly lit up.
[Smelting successful, obtained Silver Dragon Tendon * 1, Koi Scale * 20.]
“It worked.”
Autumn Leaf was as happy as a child at this moment, jumping in place for a few seconds before handing over all the obtained items to Lin Ling.
She continued to pick up a ring.
[Smelting Target: Batian Ring.]
“Yes!”
Perhaps her bad luck had been used up in advance, and the Goddess of Fortune finally favored Autumn Leaf again.
Another golden light lit up.
[Smelting successful, obtained Star Ore * 1, obtained Elk Essential Oil * 20.]
Autumn Leaf took advantage of this momentum and picked up the last item, the Batian Hood.
The golden light lit up again.
[Smelting successful, obtained Gold Thread Seahorse Skin * 1, Deep Sea Dragon Whale Whisker * 20.]
“I didn't fail my mission, three items succeeded.”
Autumn Leaf handed all the materials to Lin Ling. Although she was several years older than Lin Ling, she looked more like a little sister seeking praise.
Lin Ling put away the materials and immediately taught Autumn Leaf an inscription that could purify enchantment stone to 20%.
Autumn Leaf immediately tried it, and when she found that she could purify it to a 20% mana loss rate, she almost wanted to pounce on Lin Ling and kiss him.
But Lin Ling seemed to be prepared. Before she could make a move, he had already flashed away into the distance.
Successfully smelting three pieces of equipment was actually a very good harvest for him. The value of these materials was very high.
The three exclusive weapons yielded three common materials and three rare materials. The value of these items definitely exceeded one billion.
What made him most happy was that these materials were exactly what he could use to upgrade his Ling Tian Set right now.
He wasn't sure why his Level 60 Ling Tian Set used materials from someone else's Level 120 set.
But he knew that the more difficult the crafting conditions, the stronger the equipment's attributes.
From another perspective, this was a good thing.
Lin Ling walked towards the Ice Silkworm Cave. He didn't want to waste time here. Since the BOSS wasn't appearing, he would find a way to force it out.
But when he arrived at the cave entrance, he received a system prompt: Adventurers cannot actively enter the Ice Silkworm Cave.
This was very frustrating.
Time passed little by little.
The Icebound Forest became increasingly silent.
Night fell.
Before a bonfire, two figures waited quietly.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere gradually became a bit awkward.
“Autumn Leaf, I need some materials. Can you help me see if the Forging Master Guild can get them for me?”
Lin Ling suddenly spoke, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
He listed all the materials needed to upgrade the Ling Tian Set in the team channel.
“Some are available, and some, although not available, can still be obtained if we think of a way. But it will take some time. If you need them, I can help you gather them, but you also have to help me with something,” Autumn Leaf said, looking into Lin Ling's eyes.
Lin Ling's heart immediately filled with joy, “Tell me what you need help with.”
Autumn Leaf hesitated slightly, but then, thinking of the Qiu Family's situation, she gritted her teeth and said, “You said my guangyin pendant had a problem before?”
Lin Ling nodded, “Yes, your design concept is fine, but with your Six-Revolutions Forging Master level, it's difficult to make.”
“But the candidates for the grand competition can only be under 30 years old, and I'm already the highest-level Forging Master under 30 in the entire Qiu Family.
I heard that the Lin Family bought a design blueprint for a perfect item from abroad. If I can't make the guangyin pendant, I won't be able to win against the Lin Family,” Autumn Leaf said.
“I can indeed create the pendant from your blueprint, but simply helping me collect materials isn't enough to hire me to help you,” Lin Ling said with a smile.
Autumn Leaf's eyes lit up, “Are you serious? Aren't you not even a Two-Revolutions Forging Master?”
Lin Ling: “Anyway, I have a way. Believe it or not.”
Autumn Leaf bit her red lip lightly, “Then what else do you want? Do you want me to give myself to you?”
As soon as she spoke, she regretted it a little. Her mind must have been corrupted.
“The Forging Master Guild's laboratory will be freely open to me. If you can agree to that, I'll help you out once,” Lin Ling said.
As soon as these words left his mouth, some things in Autumn Leaf's mind quickly overlapped.
She raised her hand to cover her mouth, saying in disbelief, “You're the one who was making the Ling Tian Set in the laboratory during the day?”
Lin Ling smiled faintly and nodded slightly.
“I agree. You apply to join the Forging Master Guild, and seven days later, you represent my Qiu Family in the grand selection competition. From now on, you can use the Forging Master Guild laboratory however you want.”
“Deal!”
Lin Ling said with satisfaction.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head to look behind him.
Just now, he clearly felt a gaze peeking at him from behind.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, quickly searching in the darkness for the source of the hidden gaze.
A humanoid dark shadow flashed through the Icebound Forest, as if a child had run through the woods.
He looked again intently but found nothing.
This discovery immediately made the hairs on Lin Ling's body stand on end.
This was a dungeon world. Besides Ben Boha, whom he had killed, there shouldn't be a third living person here.
