Chapter 1630 1630. Successful Forging!

'Purified light gem

The purified light gem is a gem that has the ability to store light elemental mana that has been condensed to very high purity. The amount that it can store will be altered depending on the user, what other materials this gem is attached to, and the runes that attach to this gem.

This gem can not be used alone due to the high strain that would be placed on it while holding a high amount of purified mana. It can be reinforced better using natural light gems as a balance so that even greater amounts of condensed light elemental mana can be stored within.

Purified darkness gem…'

? The purified light and purified darkness gems that were made caused everyone to stand silent while watching the flames die down. The blacksmiths had taken whatever metals they had ready at the moment and heated them to begin forging. Small shields, a few pieces of armor, and even the odd sword or dagger were being made. But the mana gems that were being revealed to have been made were what stood out.

"That is true? You can store condensed and purified elemental mana in those gems? And there are also some natural light and dark gems that we will be ankle to pair with them?" Rise felt like she was not seeing the truth. The things that Walker had just said seemed surreal. She never imagined that this would be the quality that was in front of her.

"Listen, that's what those are and if you want more you can ask in a million years because I am done." Remey didn't even care for pleasantries. So what if this was a royal dragon she was talking to? She had been worked to the bone. She was out of mana and she could sense that her partner had remained within the spirit mark for the sole reason that all its mana was being drained this entire time.

"No, this is enough. We can hold on to these and use them when we have armors made for us. We can even add these to armors that we would wear in these dragonkin forms." Mordant was too happy to go against anything. He wanted to skip in to the future and see the multiple sets of armors that he would be wearing with these gems. He was even feeling that Shade was stirring because he had felt the draw of the purified darkness gem.

The fact that Shade even stirred was a big deal for Mordant. His partner had rested since the last time they exhausted a lot of mana. That meant there was a chance to gather more darkness elemental mana. To grow even more while they were in the open ocean where only a star's light could touch them at night.

"They are something to be proud of. All of us worked on something here. Alice is…well she is napping already so I will help her to her room. But I want to see these gems in action sooner or later too. But that will have to be after we get home. I doubt that either of you brought the armors you ordered with you. The wandering blacksmith works fast but not that fast." Walker gave a slight laugh as he took a wobbly step forward. He had used a significantly larger amount of mana and mental strength to control the forge flames and use multiple skills.

'The skill sea legs has been taken from the veteran sailor system. The user has spent the minimum time on the water in a ship to gain the skill sea legs.

Sea legs- passive

The user is naturally able to balance better in even the worst storms. All sailors or related systems will get this skill after spending different amounts of time on a ship in waters that are rough or calm. It is all dependent on the user and how comfortable they are with their body.'

Walker found it funny that he had gained such a random skill. But even though he was tired, he felt that his balance and walking became more stable at that moment. It was a small blessing that he could take with him as he helped carry Alice out of the forge.

Midnight had decided just to sleep where she was. The constant training she had just endured from the light and dark royal dragon was too intense. She had used the decaying flame breath and the light flame breath over and over again. The switching had changed her inner resistances and ability to gather elemental mana. It was a challenge not many dragons would have to go through but one that had made her much better when it came to using light and darkness elemental mana. She even felt that she might be able to fuse the two elemental manas in to a flame breath with a little more effort.

The only ones that were continuing their training were Onyx and Su. Onyx had found a good balance between the darkness and light elemental mana that challenged his level of control over both. This alone was something that many mages that could use multiple elemental manas would be incredibly jealous of.

This was because Onyx was learning to balance his own mana between the two opposing forces. Not only that but he was also learning to look deeper within himself to be able to live up to his best possible strength. Onyx had a deep desire to grow in to the ancient history of the abyssal and heavenly serpent species of monsters.

When I came to Su, she had been focused on enduring the pressure of multiple elemental manas and the heat of the forges. Without any defensive armor or accessories, the full heat of the forge had been hitting Su the entire time. This had gone on long enough to truly wear away on her body and mind.

The additional darkness and light elemental mana that were in condensed waves from the forging also had a large effect on her. She had to resist the effects that came with both elemental manas. This triple threat led Su to a tough impasse where she had to decide if she was being harmed or if she was actually still training.

This mentality could be found in many people who followed the guardian path. Training defensive skills or resistances was considered a very hard task. One that only those with tough minds could handle at the end of the day. If someone with a lower tier system had a stronger mind and was able to push themselves beyond what was normal for their resistances, then they would shine more than someone with a weaker mind. But that could be said for many people in many different positions.

The person that had done the least physical and nearly all mental work was Gil. He had been working on blueprints in the heat. The metals forged by the blacksmiths had been practiced on right in front of him. This was the ideal testing ground for how the metal bows would be created for dragonkin archers.

The complicated balance of strength and weight was what Gil became stuck on the most. The different elemental steels created through forging with alchemy flames were unique. They were also pure. But the issue that came with them was that they would still weigh more than a dragonkin could carry and fire accurately at all times.

This meant that the design had to be hollowed out and made with special supporting parts to properly fire an arrow and not break. This change was one that was often used in crossbows. Gil only had this knowledge to share between the dwarves because he had learned the designs and theories from the dwarven crossbowmen that had helped him alter the bow that Zephyr often rested in. if he didn't have this knowledge he would find himself like a lost child in the market.

The real breakthrough came unexpectedly. The blacksmiths that brought him the slightly heavier harpoon inspired arrows were clearly happy to do so. They had been unable to make arrows overall because they were not something often made from metals. But this design was something that united those that forged metals and archers who made arrows. To be able to connect two different crafting abilities was a blessing to any crafter.

The harpoon arrows were small but they had a hook barb that would stick in to prey easily. There was also a braided thin metal rope made of multiple metals to be able to handle the weight of what was hit with the harpoon arrows. This would allow the strong close combat fighters to take up the role of bringing in the prey caught with the arrows. It was an ideal creation for the entire journey through the ocean.
