Chapter 248: selections day (2) (1/2)

Not many knew that Jhonny had learnt a forging technique as a reward of a hidden quest , that technique gauranteed to produce epic rated assasins dagger item , for basic steel forging.

Jhonny could literally forge any number of times with steel and always come out with a epic rated assasins dagger , Jhonny could not forge a single item except steel , and he had no skills in forging any other item either.

Luck was a major part of forging for a blacksmith , as various factors determined the success of forging in a VR setting. Although the blacksmiths did adjust the hit and hit the hammer and anvil on the products , they were basically following a set pattern of hits.

The system showed them the exact spot to hit , however the power put in the hit and the precision was upto the forger.

What Jhonny did not know however was the fact that his trash luck , was a charm for deterring the opposition in a forging event. The system classified everyone competing against him in the forging event as opponents , and his heavy negetive stat affected their forging.

The brittle parts would break , while sometimes impurities would show up inside medals causing various disturbances lowering quality.

Jhonny was by no means the most talented blacksmith , however with his trash luck rubbing on everyone , this was the perfect event for him to showcase his real worth.

Tragedies kept occuring on table after table , as 60% of the blacksmiths could not even muster a product to keep for final evaluation.

While forging a dark gold item at this stage of them game was beyond impressive , everyone knew that the world stage needed epic rated items or above to compete.

At the end , the generals were deeply dissapointed at the performance of the blacksmithing department. It was hard to watch as trash quality bronze and silver artifacts were put up for evaluation.

The only saving grace of the event was sir Jhonny who forged a epic rated item , and Fatty Kalash who made a damaged epic item.

The system luckily still evaluated his item as epic and hence gave him the number two spot in overall evaluation.

Jhonny and Fatty Kalash had secured spots in the national team with this .

All eyes again went towards Ethan Grey , who had a calm look on his face ..... The True Elites were proving to become more and more unfathomable , every event seemed to be dominated by them.

It was just a guild of 3000 members or so , however it still had maximum representative spots in the national squad.

Even those who did not get selected , showed great potential from the guild , Tanks like cola and rhino , and wizards like Medivh , also performed spectacularly in their events.
