Chapter 129 Magic Metal
Chapter 129 Magic Metal
It’s not that Liu Chi doesn’t know the enchantment process. This kind of knowledge has already been memorized thoroughly in his brain. In essence, further refining and alchemy, including potions, all involve magic.
The fundamental reason is that Liu Chi has no magic energy, and he has the will but not the ability.
"Uncle Ben, wait for me."
Liu Chi chose to squat in front of a piece of metal, took out paper and pen from the space ring, and began to write the spell on the paper.
Ben just thought it was funny at first, but after watching Liu Chi finish writing a small line, he suddenly widened his eyes, walked directly behind Liu Chi, half squatted down and looked at the spell on the paper.
Wow! He actually found a spell that he didn't understand. Ben looked at the back of Liu Chi's head in shock.
Who is this guy? How can he be so awesome?
Ben’s current state is equivalent to a primary school student encountering advanced mathematics. He can understand a little bit, but has no idea of the principles.
The paper which was slightly larger than ordinary A4 paper was soon filled with Liu Chi's writing. Liu Chi, who wanted to continue writing, stopped writing. After all, this first step was just an experiment.
Liu Chi stood up with a smile and handed the paper to Ben behind him.
"Uncle Ben, I'll leave it to you then."
Ben suppressed his shock and took the paper from Liuchi.
"Is that all?" Ben looked at the densely packed spells. Although he recognized almost all of the individual spells, he had no idea what effect they would have when combined together.
Liu Chi nodded and said, "Uncle Ben, you go ahead and do it. If possible, I would like to enchant the three metal blocks together to save everyone's time."
I felt that Liu Chi was fooling me. He clearly told me that he didn't need my time. Now, with so many densely packed spells, it felt like I couldn't even finish them in a month.
"Even if it is enchanted like this, it will take a lot of time. Little brother, aren't you making things difficult for me? You should know that I will help you only for Janet's sake."
"I understand, Uncle Ben, you can just start enchanting."
Liu Chi said with a smile that his spell had a chain effect and did not need to be engraved one by one.
"It's still a question whether your messed up spell can be engraved. Since you said so, I'll give it a try."
Although Ben said this, he was still thinking about this messy spell in his heart. Seeing that Liu Chi wrote it quite skillfully, Ben once fell into self-doubt, as if the spell written by Liu Chi was real.
No matter whether it is true or false, you will know after trying it, right?
Based on this principle, Ben immediately took out an elliptical enchanted furnace from the space ring. It was completely black, engraved with spells on the surface, one meter and a half high and one meter wide.
Ben injected his own magic element into the enchantment furnace. The spell on the surface emitted a lavender light, and the entire enchantment furnace floated up and slowly rotated along its own center point in the air.
Ben used magic elements to control the enchantment furnace, opened its cover, and threw the three pieces of metal that had just been refined into it according to Liu Chi's requirements.
Enchanting three metals at once? You are so careless! Ben laughed wildly in his heart. The reason why he followed Liu Chi's request was to make him realize his failure and then humiliate him severely.
Referring to the spells provided by Liu Chi, Ben used magic elements to draw them one by one in the enchantment furnace.
After drawing several spells in a row, Ben suddenly sneered. These spells were not even as good as ordinary spells and could not be engraved on metal at all.
"Little brother, your spell is not good. I don't think it has any intention of attaching. You didn't just spell it out randomly, did you? With your little knowledge, you're still pretending in front of me?"
"Uncle Ben is joking. Your willingness to help me is a great affirmation of me. Why don't you try again?"
"Okay then, let's do six more spells at the end."
"nine!"
Liu Chi looked at Ben and estimated that he only needed this much to activate the magic he had written with the spell.
"Okay! Then nine! I'm going to make you give up!"
Ben said with a smile, then turned serious again, deciding to finish these quickly so he could start his "revenge".
He used magic elements to make several spells in the enchantment furnace in a row, with an attitude of gloating. After Ben completed the eighth one, his face changed drastically. The original spell seemed to suddenly come to life and began to calculate on its own.
The subsequent spells on the paper began to appear in the enchantment furnace one by one, and Ben didn't even feel any magic energy consumption.
"What are you doing?!" Ben turned around in surprise and looked at Liu Chi who was smiling.
"Uncle Ben, are you ready? I told you I don't need your time, I just need your skills."
"You! Who are you? Are you the legendary holy weapon master?"
The young man in front of him was far beyond his understanding. He could only think higher than the master-level craftsman, that the next level up was the sacred weapon master.
"Not really, I just prefer research!"
Soon Liu Chi's smile changed, and Ben actually knelt down in front of him.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings!!!"
"Uncle Ben, please get up quickly!"
Liu Chi quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ben, but how could his strength compare to that of a craftsman who had been dealing with metal for years?
Ben knelt on the ground, motionless. He knew that this would be his last hope. He thought he was one of the best masters on the continent, but he didn't expect that he was just a frog in a well.
"If Master doesn't agree to my request, I will keep kneeling!"
It's over! I didn't expect this old man to be so stubborn. Liu Chi now understood what Janet said. His master and apprentice were complete rogues, addicted to alcohol and calculating others. They didn't look like masters at all, but their skills were fine.
Seeing Ben's firm attitude, Liu Chi had to reluctantly agree. Most people would be so amused that they would go crazy if such a master was willing to become his disciple.
Janet, who was standing by, had already noticed that something was wrong with the two of them. She didn't understand why Ben wanted to worship a person who couldn't use magic as his master.
"Well, Uncle Ben, you get up first. The Queen has been watching us since just now. I am so embarrassed."
"So, Master agrees to my request?"
"Yes, get up!"
Liu Chi saw Janet walking towards them through his sight.
Liu Chi helped Ben to his feet.
"What are you two doing?"
Janet asked, the two were acting very strangely.
Ben walked up to Janet and whispered in her ear.
"Where is your boyfriend from? Do you know that he is a holy weapon master?"
Janet's face flushed, and she was embarrassed, but she quickly realized,
"You said he was a sacerdotalist?"
Liu Chi heard the conversation between the two clearly. He did not choose to deny it. If he could use magic elements, he would definitely have the strength of a holy weapon master in refining weapons.
Similarly, when it comes to magic, Liu Chi is at least above the Grand Mage.
"Yes, I am a holy weapon master."
Janet's jaw dropped to the ground. She was naturally one of the people who knew best who Liu Chi was.
When Janet was young, she had a crush on Liu Chi's father, and she saw a lot of his shadow in Liu Chi, so after the Mu family got into trouble, Janet lost her appetite.
After hearing Liu Chi admit his identity with his own ears, Ben was as happy as a child. The thigh he had earned by being shameless was extremely thick.
"When did you become a sacrist?"
Liu Chi had already expected Janet to question him, so he started to pass the buck.
"I believe in Uncle Ben's judgment of people. If he says I am a sacramentalist, then I am a sacramentalist!"
After hearing Liu Chi's explanation, Janet and Ben both dropped their jaws in shock.
Seeing Janet looking at him in confusion, and seeing Liu Chi in front of him constantly winking at him, Ben's eyes darkened. He knew that Liu Chi must be trying to keep a low profile and making him a scapegoat.
"My little brother and I were just joking! Isn't this making Her Majesty the Queen very happy? Hehehe~hehe~!"
Janet looked at Liu Chi again and became more interested in him. Janet knew Ben's character very well. Even if he was to die, he would not kneel down.
But now, in order to amuse myself, this is obviously impossible.
"Well, I won't bother you anymore. You guys continue, and I'll stay by the side."
As she spoke, Janet took out a platinum armchair from her space ring and sat directly in front of the two of them.
After knowing what Liu Chi meant, Ben returned to his original attitude.
"Little brother, let's continue."
Liu Chi nodded.
"Thank you, Uncle Ben, for taking the time to help me."
"Alas! What are you talking about? Her Majesty the Queen's friends are my friends. It's not a big deal to help a friend. If I need a favor in the future, you should not refuse."
Liu Chi raised his eyebrows when he heard this. It turned out that this old man was setting a trap for himself in front of Janet. This was not acceptable.
"Uncle Ben is joking. You are a master, and I am just a first-class commoner. If you can't accomplish something, then I, a commoner, will be even more unable to accomplish it. I am afraid that I will waste your time."
After hearing Liu Chi's answer, Ben took a deep breath and understood why Liu Chi could become Janet's boyfriend. It was all because of his smooth talk.
Janet watched the two of them shirking responsibility and realized that there must be something strange between them, but because it was in her way, she didn't say it out loud.
Ben showed a helpless smile and turned his attention to the situation in the enchanting furnace.
When he wasn't paying attention, the spell reacted with the metal in the furnace.
After the engraving was completed, Ben immediately poured the metal in the enchanting furnace into the cooling pool nearby.
Soon, Ben came back with three pieces of magic metal.
"Here, this is the metal you asked for!"
Liu Chi couldn't wait to take the three pieces of magic metal and played with them in his hands.
Liu Chi nodded with satisfaction and handed the three pieces of metal back to Ben.
"I have something else to trouble you, Uncle Ben."
"Okay, okay!" Ben said excitedly. He would definitely serve this master well. It would definitely be no problem for him to ask for a few tricks when the time comes.
