Chapter 1995 Low-Quality Consumables
Elemental alloy is a new name for the convenience of naming after receiving the batch of indigenous dwarves and obtaining new metals.
To subdivide, it can also be divided into fire element alloys, earth element alloys and so on according to different properties.
At this time, the sword in Luo Ji's hand was undoubtedly made of fire element alloy, but it was obviously more than that.
"Report to Your Majesty, in addition to the fire element alloy, the material for forging this sword is also star sand."
Luo Ji was of course no stranger to star sand, the rare material of their Myriad Realms civilization, but at the same time, a bit of strangeness inevitably arose in his heart.
"Could it be that this elemental alloy was not originally a magic material? You still need to use star sand?"
In Luo Ji's impression, the biggest role of star sand is to change the properties of materials.
Ordinary metal can't hold mana, so it can't be used to forge magic weapons.
For this reason, only after integrating star sand and forging it into star-patterned steel can it be transformed into a magic material and obtain the corresponding characteristics.
But according to Luo Ji's expectations, this elemental alloy should have been a magic material in the first place.
For this question, the explanation seems to be a bit complicated. Carl organized his thoughts for a few minutes, and then slowly explained...
"Reporting to Your Majesty, elemental alloys can indeed be counted as magic materials, but at the same time they are not all."
Hearing this, Luo Ji didn't say a word, but raised his hand and motioned Carl to continue.
In this regard, Carl is not ambiguous, just listen to him continue to say...
"According to my personal understanding, this elemental alloy should be quenched, so that the elemental power in the magic crystal ore is integrated into the ordinary metal material, so that the characteristics of the ordinary metal material have changed. It sounds like the role of star sand is similar, but in fact, it is not."
"In simple terms, a pure elemental alloy is a low-quality consumable! It is like a magic crystal that has changed its shape, and some elemental power should still be lost during the smelting process. The element is not as good as a magic crystal."
As he spoke, Carl took out another thing he had brought with him this time, an old-fashioned flintlock gun.
In their Myriad Realms civilization, it is estimated that they will not be found. After all, the flintlock gun has been eliminated a long time ago.
And just as Luo Ji was thinking so, Karl, who had picked up the flintlock gun, had already spoken again...
"Your Majesty, please see, the barrel of this flintlock gun was forged by those dwarves using a fire element alloy."
Hearing this, Luo Ji subconsciously turned his attention to the barrel of the flintlock gun. Sure enough, if he looked carefully, he could still see that the barrel of the flintlock gun had a dark gleam of darkness. Red, but strangely, the color seems very light.
In the end, I don't know if I could see Luo Ji's thoughts, I just heard Carl speak...
"Your Majesty should have discovered that although the barrel of this flintlock gun is also made of fire element alloy, the color is very light, and it is not comparable to the sword I forged."
"In fact, it is true. This flintlock gun is considered a half magic weapon for the time being. Because the fire element alloy in which the barrel is cast is rich in fire element power, the bullet will be fired at the same time. With the blessing of a little fire element power, it will become stronger, but even so, the power of this flintlock gun is only about a quarter of that of Thunder Seven."
"By the way, I have also used it to forge spell weapons alone, and the actual effect is that it doesn't even reach half of the effect of first-order weapons."
Speaking of this, Carl couldn't help but curl his lips. In his opinion, the way the indigenous dwarves used elemental alloys was a complete waste of materials.
"Returning to the topic, the color of the barrel is so light because every time you shoot, it will consume the elemental power attached to this fire element alloy! I have already conducted a clear test on this point. When the hair gun was first delivered, the color was not so light."
Hearing this, Luo Ji's expression also changed. At the same time, he finally understood why Carl said that this elemental alloy is a low-quality consumable.
After that, Luo Ji couldn't help but ask...
"Carl, according to what you said, after the elemental power in this elemental alloy is exhausted, will it become a piece of scrap iron?"
In this regard, Carl nodded seriously.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have confirmed this with another flintlock."
This was really a flaw that Luo Ji didn't expect at first, and it also made him realize another thing.
"Then, Carl, you are in the elemental alloy, infused with star sand, in order to change its material again?"
Hearing this, Carl's eyes brightened a bit.
"That's right! In the process of blending into the star sand, I changed the material of this elemental alloy again! Please see this, Your Majesty."
While speaking, Carl took out another dark red metal ingot.
Luo Ji, who took the metal ingot, scrutinized it subconsciously, and then he quickly discovered that on the surface of this fire element alloy, there were actually star patterns that looked like stars. This was only a star pattern. The characteristics of steel!
"I call this fire element alloy smelted with star sand as flame star steel, and that sword is forged from this flame star steel!"
"If it is said that the previous fire element alloy is just a low-quality consumable, the power of the elements outside can't get in, and the power of the elements inside can't come out, it is blocked."
"Then after being melted into star sand and tempered into flame star-patterned steel, the power of the elements in this closed low-quality consumable has already begun to circulate, that is to say, it can now absorb the power of the elements continuously. , even if the internal elemental power is exhausted, it can be restored again, which is basically equivalent to a degraded version of the artificial magic core!"
This time, Luo Ji could be said to be completely shocked.
However, before he could calm down, Carl spoke again...
"Of course, you can also forge magic weapons by directly forging with flame star-patterned steel. If the power is limited, it will barely reach the first order, which is slightly worse in terms of the strength of the spell and the content of elemental power, but if you combine it with another one If the magic core or magic crystal has the same attributes, then this whole weapon can directly undergo qualitative changes!"
"Take this sword as an example, when it is inlaid with a fire magic crystal, it is equivalent to having two energy points that provide elemental power. At the same time, the characteristics of flame star steel can also make The corresponding elemental power flows, becoming more efficient and reducing unnecessary elemental consumption. In other words, a blow that originally required 30 percent of the elemental power to hit may now only require 10 percent of the elemental power to be used. done!"
