Chapter 682 - 682. Molding


    The elder watched as Grey was distracted and proceeded to p him on the back of the head. "


    You always let your eyes wander. You need to have those runes done double time so I can get the me light silver melting. Don''t you dare think that you will get out of this." The elder knew all too well that grey was easily distracted by other things and required a strict atmosphere.


    Walker rxed and looked at the mes. The fore spirit also consensed its body again to hover around the mes and enjoy the heat they had created. "I didn''t expect to get a skill like this. I can use it to forge anywhere if I have the ambient fire and light elemental mana. Even better it lets me decide what elemental mana to add to the materials." Walker was fairly happy about this but realized something.


    "I would need more skills to take advantage of the forge orb. This is just a heat source to create and bring with me. If I want to forge I need to be able to do everything." Walker was starting to watch and learn that he couldn''t make full use of the skill he had learned.


    "Leader, that orb. It appears that you can make it anytime right? Do you think the wandering cksmith would be able to use it?" Su was spot on. She had already thought of the perfect situation and person for Walker to work with.


    "That''s perfect. I bet we can make all sorts of things with this. He does want us to travel with him to the mountains to do some cold snowy forging and such. I bet this will help him set up a forge anywhere he wants." Walker was thinking of this in simple terms but knew that such an adventure would need to wait until the party had rested themselves properly.


    "Alright. These runes are ready." Grey had speedily carved the necessary runes in to the core that Walker had provided. "We will add that flint stone in to the me light silver right? If it''s spread out evenly in small pieces it should help connect the fire elemental mana that should be connected to it. I was thinking of having a total of ten mana gems. Maybe I should add more though."


    "Ten? You want arge golem that is mimicking a dragon and you think ten is enough? I would say you need a system of forty at least. Then the golem can breathe fire and use other means to attack without running out of store mana immediately. Not to mention op[orate without a spirit in control. Ah, we will need to add some mana gathering runes to the frame." The elder was already nning the build but Grey was ahead of him.


    "I have the bones made of metals already. They are going to have twoyers of runes. One set of earth runes for strength then we can to theyers of mana gathering runes. They will focus on the fire and light elemental mana though." There was a slight change in the mana as the core began to pull at the elemental mana in the air.


    "Perfect, let''s add the casing to it." The elder moved to heat the me light silver in the forge. He wore some heavy gloved and added the metal to melt it. "These mes will do the job in no time. I will have this setting up soon."


    The elder moved and took the flint stone to another set of tools. In a quick movement, he had shattered the stone in to small pieces. But he didn''t stop there. He scooped the pieces in to a round metal bowl and began to grind them in to a powder.


    "What is that going to do?" Walker wasn''t sure how the stone would be used if it was just going to be a powder.


    "This will be mixed in to the molten metal. That will allow the small fire elemental crystals that make up the flint stone to fuse with the metal. It is more apt to say that the crystals are shards or pieces like salt. They are tiny and hard to damage. But can be mixed like an ingredient." Walker understood what the elder was getting at and watched as the elder demonstrated this by adding the powder to the molten me light silver.


    The mixture turned darker but still held the silvery shine of mes. "Gey, bring that orb and mold over. I need it to move to the next step." The elder yelled and Grey didn''t hesitate. The mold was rolled over and the orb ced within. In just a blink the elder was pouring the metal in to the mold and a molten metal epassed the core.


    "Now we wait. Once it is cooled we can carve more runes and connect the fire elemental mana crystals. This will be the finalized core. But we will need to start the spirit forging process while carving these runes. I can not use the spirit forging skill just yet. Ick the skill. But my master can." Grey looked to the elder and saw that he was being praised for knowing his limits.


    "I would say you are the closest of my apprentices. The only other is that human that wandered in here years ago. I give you another year or sooner if you dedicate more time to it." The elder may have been nice but he was true to what he said. He genuinely believed that if Grey focused he could obtain the spirit forging skill within a year or sooner.


    "Then I will need to work harder. I want to be making many more golems than I have. My ideas overflow and with this path being built, I need to walk it." Grey had found a new motivation. He would be able to guide his own apprentices but stand taller now.
