Chapter 1087 Using Monstrous Weapons In Forging
The moment he came close enough to be detected by their spirit senses, they stopped what they were doing, spread the news fast, and came to meet up with the legend.
William watched them gather up fast enough to block his path inside. He stopped in front of them, before deeply bowing.
"I know it was hard to stay here, watching your comrades fight the enemies bravely. But I assure you, what you did here isn't wasted, isn't worthless or less than their contributions out there."
His words landed, and everyone went speechless. They never expected the first thing William would speak of would be addressing such an issue. And by what he said, they knew they were right to trust him from the start.
"Let's see what are you going to do here," The one to speak up wasn't any of them, surprisingly it was Sloth. He came with lots of other masters, looking as if they ran all the way from the king's tent to here.
"You could have watched everything using spirit sense," William rolled his eyes when he saw all of them.
"It won't be like seeing you working in the flesh," Panther smiled, before adding, "It's not widely known, but I know the new gears and inventions in the Fox guild came originally from you. Not only that, I even heard the early batches were forged by you, and under your supervision and guidance, right?"
"I see we got moles in the guild then," William laughed, while joking about this, "let me pass then, I have to work for five days straight. Make sure monsters are away from here no matter what."
"The king has already ordered to build traps around the valleys, the mountains, and also lay down many forts and even build a wall here…" one of the masters said about the king's decisive plan to strengthen their hold here.
It was apparently clear that they'd take a long time in this place before getting out. And staying here exposed like this, without a single shred of defence, wasn't something nice at all.
So it was better to fortify this place, build defences and lay down traps, as long as they got time to do so.
As William walked into the forging place, masters parted ways, making space for him, enough to make what he wanted. He looked at the hot ovens, the ores that were still melting and waved to the masters around.
"Keep working, I only need ten ovens," he shouted, while pointing towards a spot in the heart of this place, "I'll work there. Deliver all you made over, stack them in batches according to type, and I'll do the rest."
"Ten ovens?!!" This was a crazy statement of his, but the old masters who watched his performance all this time got a glimpse of what he intended to do.
As he went towards the heart of this place, he took out his ten monstrous weapons. They were strong enough to fight bravely in any battle, but this wasn't just the sole use of them.
He could control them perfectly fine, and make them use his forging techniques, helping him do various tasks.
As he went there, he started taking out tons of materials. Any master having little knowledge in forging wouldn't recognise a single piece of these ores and materials. And those who came from Lara's city instantly recognised these.
"Do you want materials from our city? We have many of these," masters from Lara's city stepped up, and offered their help to him in such regard.
"Sure," he'd say no to more materials. As they took out their materials, he started to sort them according to their usage.
There were materials he didn't need, and he let Anjie return them all to the masters from Lara's city. They didn't accept it and insisted he'd take them all.
"As you wish," he didn't reject their generosity, ending up storing anything he didn't need.
"You work on these, melt them down," he started to point at his monstrous weapons, asking them to melt ores or start to move around with hammers, to familiarise themselves with these.
As he didn't have but three hammers, he decided to borrow the rest from others. He got high-grade hammers, as masters were all willing to help.
"You work on these, bring them when I say," he didn't actually need to speak to order them around, but it was sort of a habit now.
"Raise the temperature of fire! Pour your spirit power into it to blaze fiercer! This isn't like melting normal materials, but like melting something that's not meant to get affected by any heat…"
He kept giving his orders for almost three hours straight, losing himself in doing so. He just started this as a habit, but soon he began to put the future interest of the masters of the world watching him.
It was a golden and rare chance for them to learn about things that wouldn't be known by any in the world. So he kept telling his orders, while everyone listened attentively.
"Now!" he stood beside the anvil while waiting for the melted mix to finally get ready. To melt these ores, his monstrous weapons needed at least half a day of constant work, something that made everyone else quite speechless on how hard it was to do this.
"Hammer it!" There were three of his monstrous weapons working on melting down the ores. He also helped from the side whenever they needed such a thing. As for the rest, he left two to arrange materials, and take care of the already forgotten components, and the remaining five were now ready to hammer down the melted ores.
"Hammer it using your spirit power, hammer it as if you are fighting an enemy!" William kept shouting from time to time, while masters around gained more knowledge about this.
They took half a day to melt these ores, but hammering them took two days straight.
