65 Piqued Interes (1/2)

Ding* Ding*

The old man hammered away at the metal. The soothing sound of the metal appeared as though the hammer is a bow and the metal a violin. Ye Qin and Wang Tao watched without moving or saying anything as the old man continued hammering down onto the metal

After a while, the old man stopped pounding the piece of metal and put it into the furnace to heat it up slightly before taking it out and hammering a few times to get the shape he wanted then threw it into an ice cold bucket to cool it down

Shizz* Shizz*

The old man wiped his sweat away as his muscular body shone with a powerful light. He then turned around to face the two brothers and stared at them deeply for a brief moment before taking off his gloves and shoving them into his pockets. ”So what do you think of my profession?” he asked

Thump*

Sitting down onto a trunk of wood, the old man stroked his white beard as he looked at the boys before him. ”It's quite nice, I can feel your passion as well as your blood, sweat and tears in your smithing.” Ye Qin replied

Wang Tao nodded, ”I can tell that you truly love your work.” he added. The old man continued stroking his beard before laughing out loud ”Hahahahahahaha, I see.”

”Well have a look around, I can tell the two of you appreciate smithing. If you come back, I'll let you in without taking a test.” the old man said before standing up to take out the already cooled metal

The two boys nodded as they walked around to look at the surrounding work. From the left to the right, the walls are filled with all kinds of weapons. From swords, to maces, bows and shields as well as pieces of armour. Even different types of guns and what seemed to be failed work were on display

Ye Qin looked at a specific piece that hung up on the wall, kept safely inside a glass container. What he saw is the diagram of a monster core with detailed writing all over and labeling. Next to that, a blueprint of a sword shaped like an ember with the monster core placed in the centre

Many things that Ye Qin didn't recognise were also written on the blueprint that explained their properties. Reading and taking in the information, Ye Qin felt glad that he learnt something new that would benefit him in the future

As for Wang Tao, he looked at the piece next to the sword that Ye Qin was studying. What he saw is a chest piece that looked like the eyes of a demon. According to the blueprints, the armour could change shape according to the wearer, not only that, a monster core could be integrated into the armour to make it more durable whilst being able to give the user elemental attacks added on top based on the core used

Naturally this too is a failed piece and couldn't be brought to light. Wang Tao thought to himself ”This is quite interesting, if such things could come to light, humanity will progress further and have another way of fighting the monsters.”

”Maybe I should join this peak, it piqued my interest plus I don't need to take a test to join… Though it won't help me get any stronger, well there's still another eight peaks to have a look at. I'll probably join whichever peak boss decided to join anyway.”
