Chapter 1062: Insomnia
Seeing Jeno let people settle in the furnace village without his consent, Orn sighed imperceptibly.
He didn't say anything, and he didn't drive him away. Instead, he dragged a forbidden demon tree in front of him, first forged it with a blazing fire to become brittle, and then hammered it into slag.
The dull sound of crashing echoed throughout the furnace village, and before he knew it, he was surrounded by many admiring furnace households. They were not afraid of the heat emanating from his body in the slightest, even if the sweat evaporated salt crystals on his body, and even the blisters were burned by the flames, they had to see the divine techniques of the ancestor craftsman.
Orn wanted them to keep their distance, he didn't want to communicate with anyone, he just wanted to do what he was doing, and he didn't want anyone to get hurt by him. In fact, as long as these people don't interfere with his work, he doesn't mind his skills being learned and emulated.
Still, something upset Orn arose, and a man somehow came to disturb him, forcing him to distract himself from the social interactions he was not good at.
"Orn, I'd like you to help people craft a batch of weapons first, or teach the Furnace family how to craft weapons with forbidden magic stones. Next, we'll have to face Lisandro's Frost Guard, which she has sealed underneath the fortress, and we must break through to get access to it. ”
Seeing that it was Jeno, Orn didn't make any moves, just put a rather dissatisfied expression on his face.
"I'm still figuring out how to mix these things into the steel." He grunted and went on to work.
It's not a difficult task, and crafting weapons is what he does best. And his groping also needs a direction, and Jeno came just right.
With no added workload, Orn's mood improved slightly, but with what he knew about Jeno, this man wouldn't come to him just for one thing.
Jeno likes to throw everything at him.
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Jeno asked again.
"During this time, you will first practice with these forbidden demon trees in the furnace village to familiarize yourself with the characteristics. At that time, we will also melt and forge the refined Forbidden Demon Dust into molten iron in the Frost Guard Fortress near the top of the Howling Abyss, and then pour it directly. ”
When he heard that he was going to change the place for forging, he had not moved the land for thousands of years, and he finally couldn't ignore Jeno.
He turned around and said, "The underground of the fortress is occupied by that thing, I can't go beyond it to summon the power of earth fire, how can I melt so much molten iron?" ”
Looking at Orn's expression of "you kid is deliberately making things difficult for me", Jeno explained calmly:
"Do you want people to carry molten iron over there? Or are you going to dig a ditch to connect to the Frostguard Fortress? This is simply not realistic, the icy temperature will quickly cool the molten iron, so it can only be melted and used, which means that we must get as close as possible to the Howling Abyss, and it is best to refine the Forbidden Demon Tree into a high-concentration raw material before bringing it over. ”
According to Jeno's idea, Orn must have to smelt molten iron near the fortress. On the side of the couch, it is not allowed for others to snore, and Lisandro will most likely stop them from thinking like this, so this factor must be stabilized in order to do so.
"Do you have to capture the Frostguard Fortress? Don't ask Lisandro's opinion before making a decision? Moreover, the terrain of the Frostguard Fortress is notoriously easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”
Orn always felt that Jeno was using high-sounding reasons to drive him to help him take the Frostguard Fortress in order to satisfy his unknown ambitions. Because of the matter of the three sisters, he didn't trust the leader of the human race, the Fire Ruler, except for the simple and pragmatic furnace family.
In fact, Orn had the experience of talking to Lisandro and even helped her. So he thinks it's negotiable with Lisandro, so why not negotiate first and then act? If Lisandro had agreed to Jeno to help her reseal the Overseer, then war might have been avoided.
"Lisandro's attitude?" Jeno pondered, he thought that Lisandro would not be able to sit still for the first time, after all, she had seen what was going on here.
"Maybe we'll find out in a few days." Jeno said meaningfully.
In fact, if you think about it, how could Lisandro open the city gate generously to let the enemy enter her base, and expose the ugly reality that she was desperately trying to hide?
Like a murderer who has been on the run for many years, and suddenly someone asks her to tell the police where she killed and hid her body, will she have this kind of awareness?
For Jeno, Lisandro's thoughts didn't matter, and unless she was willing to compromise and let them stay in the fortress, they would definitely have to fight each other. What's more important is Orn's attitude, which can only be done if Orn is willing to go with him.
Hearing Jano's words, Orn didn't think much about it and didn't talk to him. If he could, he didn't want to get involved in mortal wars.
Just when he was about to drive Jeno away, he heard him say slowly, "By the way, have you tried to extract the rune power from the Forbidden Demon Tree?" ”
"I'm doing it, don't rush." Orn grunted, which sounded like "No, get out!" to Jeno. ". He figured that Orn's tolerance for him had reached its limit, and he walked away.
For the next few days, Jeno didn't bother Orn, so the pragmatic Orn began to do what he asked.
The army rests in the ruins of the Furnace Country, and Orn gathers the craftsmen to begin crafting the first weapons. He distributed the forbidden demon dust that he had purified with thousands of hammers to the furnace craftsmen, teaching them how to mix it into the forging of weapons to increase the hardness of their weapons and give them the ability to absorb magical power.
Under the work of thousands of craftsmen day and night, the furnace constantly releases dry smoke, the hot air is mixed with the pungent smell of soot, and the hammer is constantly pounding on the anvil, and the sound of intensive tempering echoes throughout the furnace village.
In this sultry and noisy environment, a restful night's sleep becomes a luxury.
With the exception of the blacksmiths, who sweat and sweat all the time, almost everyone needs Nunu's dream magic to escape the real world and fall asleep.
And tonight, Jeno is no exception to insomnia again.
"**a**, I have lived in this furnace for a long time, my ears have to be cocooned, it's hot and noisy! I don't know why those blacksmiths settled here. Jeno cursed in a beautiful Zuan dialect, and even though he lived on the top of the outermost mountain, he could still clearly hear Orn's thrashing and trembling on the ground.
He searched everywhere in the noisy night, and if he didn't find him, he wouldn't want to sleep soundly tonight.
