Chapter 2373: 2373. Su''s Goals
?
"Hm?''"'' The sudden appearance of Su in his forge made the wandering cksmith look up.
While he would normally be focused on his work so much so that he would not even realize that the building fell down if that happened, this time he looked up. He could sense that Su was a lot more focused right now than what he was.
Call it intuition for those that were used to putting everything they had in their work.
"I have something I need to ask of you." She had been thinking about this for a while.
Su had put a lot of work in. She had helped at the crystal inds, been able to make some assistance for the new races, and now she had returned from another important job. But all that time she had noticed that many of those she had gathered were not properly equipped any longer.
"Everyone I work with is not ready to handle the threats and dangers we are going to be facing. We have too many inexperienced craftsmen making things. They aren''t able to use enough materials with higher qualities. The best items are being made for those that won''t even be sent out of the cities and towns we position them in."
This was something that stopped the wandering cksmith in his actions. He had been preparing a small blueprint for an idea that came to him. While it could be important to the next generation of floating ships, he knew that whatever it was could not be as valuable as what Su was bringing up.
He had also had a small idea of this problem. In the eyes of a master cksmith, the smallest errors in even the nicest looking armors for someone of average skill were highlighted. It was like looking at at someone making their first work.
"I want to be part of the venture to theva fields with the goal to bring back another mass of ores, mana crystals, and everything else we can get while there. If we can find extraordinary materials that are closer to the volcano, I will be the one to take the risk and go there." Her words did not show any sign of being held back by worry. Only drive.
"What do you need?" since the wandering cksmith knew that Su would not take this to him without a good reason, he asked the only thing that was necessary. Whatever it was he understood.
From making Su''s twin shields, repairing them, and even making new pairs for different situations, he had learned a lot about her. The way that su fought was preferably one that could protect people. She always held a small part of her back which she could release when using a more attack based style. That was her desire to make sure that those who meant harm could be halted for sure.
This quality of focusing on defense whenever necessary and only using attack when absolutely forced showed him that she deserved everything he had to offer as a craftsman. He knew that the shields he made were doing more than just being used to fight monsters or being show off. Some weapons he had made were just disy pieces and he hated that very much.
In his youth, he could recall making weapons and armors that were showed off and sent in to storage after whoever bought or owned them had be bored with showing them off. That was not at all his desire. He hated that. It made his very being shake with anger and disappointment.
What he made he made for a purpose. He pushed his skills to be the very best because he wanted to see the levels beyond the horizon for forging as a whole. He wanted to step well above and be more than he was today. And those that wielding what he made should have a true and pure reason for wielding them.
Su wielded everything to make the world a better ce for all people. Her life was just another piece of what she needed to stand as an absolute defender. Not many people could live that life and proof that they were worthy to be seen as more. Even the fact that she had been a human who became a true draconic guardian meant that she could supersede the limits of what she should be.
"I need you to allow me to be able to procure and store many of the things I find. I also need you to make sure that I can go and discover these things myself. I don''t need a team since the numbers are limited. Walker maye, but he can not be the one tasked with gathering everything. He will need to map out the area and focus on arger picture. I need your support for this."
It wasn''t simply a request for a shield or for armor to reset the extreme heat. Su wanted an item like Walker''s high spatial storage. She wanted a magical and highly crafted item to store a massive amount of materials she could gather within theva fields and even from the volcano if she were to go there.
"Extreme heat resistance. Extreme mana resistance. Space mana ability and flow. Several high quality mana gems. Spatial me alloy. Limited time. Blueprints are impossible. Rune carving format is experimental. Untouched research..."
The mumbling front he wandering cksmith as Su''s need and his curiosity took root was perfect. She could tell where his mind was bouncing to. How many topics he was touching on in his grand life of experience.
The wandering cksmith was not just one person in a way, he was many. Someone with such a massive amount of experience and surely more than just a human at this point had to be transcending to something else. If not, Su would im that he was blessed by some powerful ss user or higher being. Because the knowledge he had of each small phrase he mumbled could not be written in even a hundred books.
She did know that he was building. He was putting together the blueprint and assembling the things he had learned. The crux should have been the ability to make an alloy to handle spatial mana and be able to use the mes that were in the furnaces Walker helped make with him. These furnaces had unique mes that could be used to further enhance Walker''s eternal codex. Allow him the ability to better channel more unique manas through them. But he was limited by his own understanding and even the wandering cksmith was limited but he fact that he did not understand those mes just yet. Besides the fact that the mes were governed by unique elemental spirits.
There was also the fact that proper space runes had not been made. Meaning that to even make this, the wandering cksmith had to ensure that he was able to create them. He had to find a way using the elemental runes the same ways that the elemental rune teleportation formation used them, or pursue other methods. Right now, he was finding a way.
Suddenly, he started writing a list. Over thirty materials, metals, and even some odd herbs here and there were written. "Get them while I prepare." Su had been sent on an errand while the wandering cksmith started to clear the entire forge. Tossing tools and papers outside to make the entire room clear.
He was clearing it all to ensure that his process would be entirely isted. Not a single instance of other mana would break his focus. Not a single piece of the materials he forged would be tainted. He could even cleanse himself before. This was a means he rarely used since he had long taken steps above what a cksmith would need this action for. That was his skill.
This was experimental and challenging.
He did not even trust himself to make sure that he would seed without the utmost caution.
Making a spatial item had been possible before. Extremely rare, but possible. However, people who made them did not fully understand how and normally followed the same methods of passed down works. Mostly, it had been lost to everyone how to change that. It was only surfacing now as a potential for new research.
"You are a material too. No armor."
That caught Su off guard. If he was saying this, that meant that her mana and her attachment to whether it was forged would also be clear. She had heard of master craftsmen making bound items. But it was thought to be pointless since people outgrew them. Or it was only something down for celebratory events. It could alsoe at a cost if it failed.
"I understand. I will also have a few purification spells used on me in the cathedral before Ie back." Su had to ept the potential failures that would happen. But her mind was focused. She could help everyone survive the changing world. This was her goal right now and these were the first steps to that goal.
