Chapter 58 Final Assembly

The last thirty materials. Shi Feng didn’t dare to be careless, starting to be more gentle and careful.

A magical tool was something assembled from parts. The core component was only one of them. If the final assembly failed, it was still a failed product and all would be wasted.

In his previous life, Shi Feng had seen forging masters assemble magical tools, but the success rate was only around 30%. However, even so, there were still many players willing to find this forging master to assemble them, because the success rate of other forging masters was less than 20%. They might succeed only once in five attempts, and the biggest possibility was that they wouldn't succeed even once in five tries, making them want to cry.

Just assembling required five sets of parts.

And for three kinds of parts, each needed ten sets, which meant that to successfully create a magical tool, you needed at least fifty sets of raw materials, and if you were unlucky, it would be hundreds...

Even for expert players, it would take a considerable amount of time to gather hundreds of sets of raw materials, and the gold coins spent would be enough to leave them heavily in debt.

Because of this, magical tools were very rare in God's Domain. The people who could afford to use magical tools were either experts or tycoons.

Shi Feng had managed to equip himself with a hundred sets of materials, but had only made 3 core components so far, which was not enough for assembly. He needed to prepare at least 10 more core components to be on the safe side, after all, he was only an advanced forger and not a forging master.

Time passed slowly.

The first core component using Magic Energy Gold failed.

The second failed.

…

After failing four times in a row, Shi Feng had to give up using Magic Energy Gold. Magic Energy Gold was originally the best auxiliary material for making Dark-Gold and Epic items. Failing four times in a row made Shi Feng’s heart ache.

Finally, he succeeded once on the ninth attempt.

"As expected, the final magic rune engraving is the most important."

Shi Feng could clearly feel that the previous success was not a fluke, because the feeling he had when engraving the magic runes was very good, as if he had merged into it, and the previous few successes were about the same.

"A feeling of merging oneself into the core component?" Shi Feng couldn't help but ponder, not rushing to refine, "This feeling is somewhat similar to improving skill completion, integrating oneself into the environment to better improve skill completion."

Immediately, Shi Feng took out a jar of Hundred Fruit Brew from his backpack and gulped it down, then started crafting again, and this time he used Magic Energy Gold.

Hundred Fruit Brew was the best item for increasing compatibility.

Since the principle was similar to improving skill completion, using Hundred Fruit Brew would naturally allow him to better engrave the magic runes on the core component.

This time, Shi Feng refined the core component even faster.

In just five minutes, he had not only refined it, but the final magic rune engraving was completed in one go.

Because Shi Feng could clearly feel that the core component was like his own hands and feet, he had a very high level of control over the engraving.

System: Core component successfully crafted, forging proficiency increased by 3 points, experience points rewarded: 50,000.

"It really is like this." Shi Feng was extremely excited when he heard the system notification, "I really didn't expect Hundred Fruit Brew to be used like this."

Immediately, Shi Feng used up all the remaining materials in one go.

Out of the remaining twenty sets, he succeeded four times, three of which had Magic Energy Gold added. This success rate was already close to that of a forging master.

So, out of a hundred sets of materials, he made a total of 9 core components, 4 of which had Magic Energy Gold added. This was not far from the expected 10 core components. All that was left was the final assembly. If it succeeded, the first player-made magical tool in God's Domain would be born.

As the weapon that ended the era of gods and demons, the power of magical tools was self-evident. Although they would not increase any basic attributes, they could strengthen weapons, allowing the strengthened weapons to cause damage to gods and demons. This was how humans had weapons to fight against gods and demons.

Of course, the magical tool that Shi Feng obtained did not yet have such power, it was only Bronze-grade.

But even Bronze-grade could not be underestimated.

In God's Domain, as levels increased, monsters would become more and more powerful. Even Dark-Gold or Epic weapons would find it difficult to injure those powerful monsters' bodies, let alone severely injure them.

But after equipping a Bronze-grade magical tool, even Mithril weapons could cut through the tough skin and scales of these monsters, let alone Fine-Gold and Dark-Gold weapons.

Without a magical tool, the difficulty of defeating those powerful monsters would increase greatly.

Therefore, all the major guilds coveted magical tools. Even Bronze-grade design drawings could drive the top-tier guilds crazy.

Being able to obtain the design drawings for magical tools so early was a huge gain, because they could start manufacturing early, so they wouldn't have to start preparing for magical tools only when they encountered monsters they couldn't defeat. The pace of development would be much faster.

First assembly failed…

Second assembly failed…

Third assembly successful!

System: Bronze-grade magical tool successfully crafted, forging proficiency increased by 5 points, experience points rewarded: 100,000.

Shi Feng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the notification.

"No way, it succeeded on the third try." Shi Feng looked at the fist-sized metal ball in his hand. The black metal ball was radiant and the surging magic power was visible to the naked eye. "I wonder what the attributes are."

The enhancement attributes of a magical tool after it was made were random.

Although the abilities of the enhancement attributes varied in strength, the most basic function would not change, which was to make the weapon sharper, or rather, to coat the weapon with a layer of magic power blade. This magic power blade had a great weakening effect on the magic power reinforcement emitted by the monster's body, allowing the weapon to damage the monster's body. Otherwise, the body reinforced by magic power would be harder than diamond and could not be cut, let alone injured.

Magical Tool, Bronze-grade, can enhance a weapon to give it a primary weightless effect, and also has the ability to weaken 30% of magic power bodies.

"It's a pity, the weakening intensity is not bad, but the weightless effect is not very meaningful for one-handed weapons, but it's good for two-handed weapons." Shi Feng secretly regretted. The weight of both the Abyssal Blade and Purgatory Shadow were very suitable for him. If they became lighter, he would not be able to adapt, which would eventually lead to poor performance and a decrease in combat power.

Then Shi Feng started assembling magical tools again.

One… two… three…

Just when there were not many parts left for the magical tool, a pleasant notification finally sounded in his ears.

System: Bronze-grade magical tool successfully crafted, Magic Energy Gold effect triggered, forging proficiency increased by 5 points, experience points rewarded: 100,000.

Shi Feng was so excited when he heard the triggered mutation effect that he almost couldn't speak.

The original purpose of using Magic Energy Gold was to improve the success rate of making core components, and now triggering the effect was really unexpected.

Immediately, Shi Feng opened the attribute data of the magical tool. The mutated magical tool data was immediately presented in front of him.

"Dual attributes, this is too exaggerated." Shi Feng looked excited, completely unable to believe this was true.

A magical tool could only enhance one attribute. Even a higher-level Black-Iron magical tool was no exception, just the enhancement effect was better. But now the magical tool in Shi Feng's hand could enhance two attributes.
