The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 244 - 147 Lu Ran's First Time_1

During Lu Ran's time studying nutritional combinations and enriching his culinary art, he also kept up with his studies in the Forging Department.

Ordinarily, learning so much in such a short time would definitely be indigestible for the average person.

But Lu Ran was different; he was willing to spend money.

He bought a lot of Clear Spirit Fruit to temporarily boost his learning capabilities.

So, on his end, it was almost like pursuing culinary and forging studies in parallel.

At this point, in forging, Lu Ran had already got the hang of some basic theoretical knowledge.

After mastering the basics, Lu Ran quickly came up with some ideas.

He wanted to enchant the Icy Sky Great Sword with a blood-sucking attribute.

Fang Lan was developing poison and needed the blood of the Huge Diamond Dragon, the more, the better.

Although Mr. Husky could break the defenses of the Huge Diamond Dragon, causing it to bleed a bit, the amount of blood was too minimal.

And it was not easy to collect.

But if there were a weapon with a blood-sucking attribute, then after Lu Ran's attack, he could have a "Sword Bathed in Dragon Blood."

Problem solved.

Besides, there was another reason why Lu Ran came up with this idea.

The Legendary Secret Realm could only be cleared once, which was such a pity!

Lu Ran wanted to try to see if he could obtain something from the Diamond Dragon repeatedly.

Of course, if he went too far, Lu Ran worried that he might clear it by accident.

After all, the trial task of the Legendary Secret Realm was simply to "defeat the Diamond Dragon," not kill it.

If he had the ability to remove the BOSS's vital organs, there's a chance Infinite City would judge it as "defeat," which would be awkward.

But just some dragon blood should be no problem, right?

Clearly, just knocking off a few scales and getting a few drops of blood couldn't possibly be considered defeating it.

Then, he could exit after collecting a bottle of dragon blood, give up the challenge, and then re-enter to continue the challenge...

As long as the cost in Challenge Crystal Coins was zero, Lu Ran felt...

Well, the blood of a pure-bred High-Ranked King of the Dragon Clan wasn't exactly World's Rare, but it was quite precious nonetheless.

Most importantly, it came from a mutant like the Diamond Dragon. If he missed this opportunity, there would be no next time.

At this time, a weapon with blood-sucking characteristics was very important!

However, such a high-difficulty enchantment operation, although Lu Ran had already understood the principle, he really wasn't sure if he could do it himself.

So, Lu Ran decisively chose to seek help and summoned Master Lin, who had just finished teaching a class.

"To give weapons the trait of blood-sucking, you first need to use the rare resource 'Blood-Sucking Stone' as the main strengthening material..." @@novelbin@@

"What is it? Do you want my help, or do you want to do it yourself?" Master Lin looked at Lu Ran.

"I'll do it myself, but I'll need you to teach me, Master Lin."

Mr. Husky was struggling too much with breaking the defenses of the Huge Diamond Dragon, and it was too early to possess a blood-sucking weapon anyway.

Better to wait until Mr. Husky became stronger before proceeding.

After two days of learning the basics and cooking meals, Lu Ran was now eager to change his thoughts and study forging.

"Alright, since I'm also free next, why not start today? I'll take you through your first attempt at forging." Master Lin crossed his arms over his chest, an expectant look on his face.

After all, Lu Ran's Beast Training Technique was the Flame Spirit.

Once Lu Ran delved deeper into the path of forging, he was certain to become one of the world's top Forging Masters.

Then, he too could boast that Lu Ran was his apprentice.

"By the way, besides swords, what else do you want to forge?" asked Master Lin.

"Starting with a sword might be challenging."

"Perhaps we should start with something simpler."

"Ah? I'd also like a Crow Feather Bow," Lu Ran said.

It wasn't to increase the bond with the Dark Crow.

Purely because when the time came to apply poison, he'd need a ranged weapon.

"That..." Master Lin's mouth twitched: "Anything else?"

That wouldn't be easy either. The Forging Department had different specializations, such as tailoring... Bow-making was even more specialized.

"Another thing, a stele," Lu Ran said.

It was a gift to prepare for the Xuan Turtle's attempt to cosplay domination, to aid in its control over the nearby seas.

"A stele?" Master Lin said: "Let's start with that then, it has the lowest difficulty."

"If you have enough talent, within half a month, you'll be able to forge a weapon of rare quality." Master Lin said confidently, not because he believed in Lu Ran, but because he believed in the Flame Spirit!

"Half a month!" Lu Ran nodded, feeling that was acceptable.

Following that, Lu Ran began his first attempt at forging under Master Lin's guidance.

He used materials provided by Master Lin.

Lu Ran was one of those exceptionally special Forging Masters who almost didn't need to rely on external facilities and equipment.

The first step was melting the materials. After the Flame Spirit's possession, he mastered the control of Energy Release and could ignite fire on his own.

In terms of temperature control, with his foundation in firework skills in the culinary art, he also had almost no issues.

Moreover, the Flame Spirit could sense the optimal temperature for melting minerals, so Lu Ran completed this step with ease.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Lu Ran stood in place, and in front of him, the special liquid formed from the reaction between the core materials and the auxiliary materials floated in the flames, shimmering with light.

"Yes, yes, right on point," praised Master Lin upon seeing this scene.

Next, for the second step of shaping, he combined the techniques of Energy Shaping and Energy Coverage, directly manipulating the Flame Spirit to help the molten essence take shape. As long as the structure wasn't too complicated, he could directly shape it without the need for a mold.

At most, he would need to do some polishing afterward to perfect the details.

Under Lu Ran's control, the mass of mineral essence slowly took the shape of a stele within the flames.
