Because of the demon siege, the blacksmith shop has been closed and no longer accepts weapons customization tasks.
But the blacksmith did not stop working, but continued to forge iron, and the sound of clanking echoed in the streets.
A row of blacksmith furnaces was built on the street in front of the blacksmith shop, and blacksmiths from all over the city gathered here.
Their mission is to provide assistance to the blacksmith and allow him to increase the forging speed of weapons as much as possible.
For example, armor-piercing arrows are now made of alloy. After a little processing, the blacksmith is responsible for the final step.
Any piece of iron, as long as it is quenched by a blacksmith, will possess magical properties.
Before the advent of this transformation technology, the defenders used armor-piercing arrows made by blacksmiths to specifically hunt down demons approaching the Demon-Eating City.
The armor-breaking arrows made by the blacksmith are about one foot and three inches long, and are no different from the spears used by soldiers.
The surface of the armor-piercing arrow is covered with runes, and light flashes from time to time. You can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary product.
In fact, these armor-breaking arrows should be called magic-breaking arrows, and they have completely reached the level of spiritual soldiers.
Armor-piercing arrows are important military supplies and are specially guarded by the monks of the Zhenfu Division. Others dare not touch them at will.
Using this kind of armor-piercing arrow to kill monsters is really overkill. Even after killing monsters many times, the armor-piercing arrow is still intact.
After field testing, even ordinary soldiers can use it to pierce heavy armor.
In just one day, the city defenders knew one thing. Armor-piercing arrows were actually magical weapons that could only be encountered but not sought.
Some warriors don't have weapons at hand, so they want to use armor-piercing arrows as weapons, but they are not allowed at all.
Naturally, such a precious weapon cannot be wasted easily. Even the armor-piercing arrows fired must be recovered in time.
Moreover, during the recycling process, you will bear a lot of risks, and you will easily be attacked by demons.
Later, someone suggested that a batch of armor-piercing arrows of poor quality could be made, the kind that did not need to be recycled after being shot.
Actively requesting to reduce the quality of ordnance is outrageous and simply irresponsible to the defenders.
What is surprising is that this proposal was approved by all the city defenders, and no one objected at all.
They all had the same purpose, which was to take the opportunity to replace the original armor-piercing arrows and use them as their own weapons.
Especially warriors who don't have weapons at hand are like hungry wolves staring at fat meat and staring at the armor-piercing arrows in stock.
With the production equipment of disposable armor-piercing arrows, the armor-piercing arrows in stock were finally distributed, making the eager warriors ecstatic.
Due to the large number of armor-piercing arrows, all city defenders have an effective weapon in their hands.
It was this issuance of armor-piercing arrows that once again enhanced the strength of the defenders of Demon-Eating City, giving them the ability to truly fight against demons.
The human race's own strength and defense capabilities cannot compare with the demons. This is the main reason why the demons crush the human race.
The armor-piercing arrows used by the defenders could easily pierce the demon's body and cause fatal wounds to it.
However, if we remove the phantom formation and fight the demon head-on, we still won't be able to win the final victory.
In addition to weapon updates, the blacksmith shop has also launched another product, which is armor made of demon skin and bones and refined iron pieces.
This kind of armor has very strong defensive power, and the demon's sharp claws that easily cut the human body cannot destroy it at all.
There are also disadvantages, that is, the shock resistance is extremely poor, and the internal organs are easily injured.
But if it is paired with a protective talisman produced by the blacksmith shop, it can offset the impact of the demon's attack and completely make up for the shortcomings of the armor.
Due to various reasons, the output of this kind of armor is not high, and it can currently only be equipped to high-level warriors.
The warriors who defended the city knew that if it weren't for the special situation now, they would never have the chance to come into contact with this kind of treasure.
Because of the armor-piercing arrows and armor, everyone knew about the blacksmith shop and knew that there was a master ghost craftsman there.
In the hearts of the city defenders, the blacksmith shop also became a holy place, because it was where they could find what they needed most.
…
Inside the blacksmith shop, the flames flickered constantly, but the temperature was so low that it made your teeth chatter.
The blazing fire has turned into a dark green color, and the terrifying cold air is emanating from it.
The green flame was connected to the blacksmith's body, still circulating in his body, and then knocked out by the hammer.
It can be seen that the cold does not come from the flames, but from the blacksmith's body.
His body was originally like red magma, but now it has become as green as water, like a piece of flawless cold jade.
"Clang clang clang!"
The blacksmith's movements were quick and powerful, and the blanks flew up one by one automatically. After being beaten and quenched by him, they fell into the huge pool next to them.
Thousands of armor-piercing arrows piled up in the pool emitted a faint light, as if they were breathing.
"I can tell by your actions that you feel very uneasy right now."
Tang Zheng was sitting in front of the table, playing with a crystal clear metal armor piece and drawing runes on it.
"I'm just a little worried, afraid that this city will be occupied by demons. After all, this was once my home."
When the blacksmith spoke, the hammer in his hand did not stop, as if forging iron had become his instinct.
"The biggest difference between you and Liu Qing is that you have too many worries in your heart, so until now, your realm has not improved at all.
If you are greedy for the human world, then I can help you and let you reincarnate again."
Tang Zhen picked up another metal piece and rubbed it lightly with his fingers. The bluish-white metal immediately turned translucent.
After hearing Tang Zhen's words, the blacksmith's movement of swinging the hammer stagnated slightly, but soon returned to normal.
"Being a human being is too hard. I can't do whatever I want. I can't even work quietly.
The way I look now, although I am neither human nor ghost, is actually pretty good."
Tang Zhen knew the experience of the blacksmith and inherited the family's blacksmith shop. He wanted to restore the glory of his ancestors, but others coveted the secret skills passed down from his ancestors.
Forced to flee to Demon Eater City, he planned to open a blacksmith shop and return to his old business, but he was still being followed by his enemies.
The enemy secretly poisoned the blacksmith and took away his family secrets.
For the blacksmith, the world is extremely unfriendly and he really has no nostalgia at all.
But at this moment, because of the crisis in Demon Eater City, he was disturbed from maintaining a good cultivation state of mind.
Tang Zhen gave a warning to let the blacksmith understand his own problems and not let this matter affect his cultivation.
This is an experimental subject and cannot cause any problems.
"There are two things you can't let go of now. The first thing is to find the person who poisoned you back then.
I can tell you clearly that the enemy you have been obsessed with has been devoured by demons and no bones remain.
If you want revenge, I can help you capture the other party's soul and let you vent your resentment.
The righteous sect to which your enemy belongs has now rebelled and surrendered to the enemy, becoming the eagle dog of the evil alliance.
If you want revenge, just defeat him.
As for the second thing, naturally it is to defend the Demon Eater City from being occupied by demons and evil alliances.
You are actually afraid of the extinction of the human race. You have finally mastered the ancestral skills, but you have no chance to show them to the world.
Let me tell you clearly, as long as I am here, no one can destroy the Demon Eater City.
And besides this world, you have other places to show your skills and have the opportunity to let more monks know your name!"
Tang Zhen's tone was calm, but the content of his words was extremely domineering.
Even when facing the demon clan, the evil alliance, or even the black hands hiding behind the scenes, he would dare to say such words.
It's just because Tang Zhen has now repaired the hidden damage caused by General Wen Youshen, and at the same time absorbed the original power of the vortex lord.
Quietly, Tang Zhen was promoted to a senior general and became qualified to challenge the mastermind behind the scenes.
If you ask You Shen Jiang if he dares to appear again, Tang Zhen will definitely let him know what a terrible enemy he has provoked.
