Chapter 2972 ​​New Material

"Can you just pick it up and look at it?"

Some minerals cannot be directly contacted. Just in case, Luo Ji asked a question.

"Your Majesty, please."

Carl raised his hand and made a 'please' action.

After confirming that there was no problem, Luo Ji, who was standing in front of the tray, took the egg-sized mithril in his hand and observed it carefully.

The moment it was officially launched, Mithril was much lighter than Luo Ji had expected.

In terms of texture, Mithril does not have the kind of particularly cold and hard metal texture. The entire texture is relatively mild, and at the same time, the hardness does not seem to be high.

The layer of faint silver halo emanating from the surface reveals its extraordinaryness invisibly.

Compared with Mithril, which is a bit low-key, Starlight Crystal is really high-profile.

Luo Ji, who didn't know the strength of this special crystal, carefully picked up the star crystal with two fingers, and then tried to take aim, closing one eye, using one eye, at close range looked at the star crystal.

At that moment, Luo Ji clearly saw that within this crystal clear, radiant starlight crystal, there was actually a dazzling galaxy!

Countless stars flickered and intertwined in it, which formed the strange starlight on the surface of the starlight crystal.

Luo Ji had already clearly felt the extraordinary power of Starlight Crystal.

Putting down the star crystal, Luo Ji turned to look at Carl who was standing beside him.

"Tell me, this newly acquired magic material, which is better than the previous star sand?"

"If it is compared with Starlight Crystal, then there is no doubt that Starlight Crystal is definitely better. This should be a top-level spell material, but in contrast, this Starlight Crystal, the efficiency of producing a batch, compared with Star Sand, There is a full five times the time gap, and each time the output is very rare."

While speaking, Carl picked up one of the star crystals.

"For a star crystal like this, Xingchen Lake can produce no more than five pieces at a time. At present, it has produced two pieces, three pieces at a time, and five pieces at a time. If you want more reliable big data, It will take longer to conduct statistics, at least ten or twenty years, right?"

To be honest, their research has only come to fruition until now, and it has nothing to do with the slow production of starlight crystals.

This situation was really beyond Luo Ji's expectations.

Although he thought from the beginning that this star crystal might be very rare, he did not expect that the output would be so low.

It takes five times more time than Xingsha, but the number of outputs in one wave is very small.

"Then, if you use this starlight crystal to forge an elemental weapon, how much will it cost to forge an elemental weapon?"

"do not know."

Carl shrugged and gave an answer that surprised Luo Ji.

Then he immediately explained why.

"For now, this starlight crystal is too precious. If we want to use it formally, we may lose a lot in the initial trial process. Without His Majesty's approval, we dare not use it without authorization. I want to ask your Majesty for your opinion."

Hearing this, Luo Ji nodded knowingly.

"What about this mithril? This amount should be quite considerable, right?"

"Yes, relatively speaking, the output of refining mithril ore is quite considerable."

"How does this compare to Xingsha?"

In response to this question, Carl pondered for a while.

"Your Majesty, in a strict sense, Mithril and Star Sand, although they are both spell materials, are not of the same type. It is inappropriate to compare them together."

"Not the same type?"

The first time he heard such a statement, Luo Ji, who was standing there, could not help but frown, and then made a gesture towards Karl, indicating that he should continue talking.

"Your Majesty, in a strict sense, star sand has always been a material with a strengthening effect. For example, if a piece of elemental equipment is incorporated into star sand, the elemental conversion efficiency of that piece of elemental equipment will become higher. High, the power of the spell becomes stronger, and the number of castings also increases, but it has always been only a strengthening material, not the main material, so, can you understand, Your Majesty?"

"What is the main ingredient?"

Luo Ji could vaguely understand what Carl meant, but suddenly he couldn't tell.

"In fact, before the dwarf craftsmen forged elemental alloys, our Wanjie civilization had always lacked the main materials when making magic equipment."

This answer was really something that Luo Ji had not thought of at all.

"Then, those magic equipment in the early years..."

"Actually, the magic equipment in the early years made a lot of compromises because of insufficient materials. Using steel and star sand to smelt and forge star-patterned steel was also a move that had no choice."

"You mean, this mithril was originally supposed to be the main material to replace steel?"

"Not quite right."

Carl shook his head.

"Mithril is indeed the main material, but steel is actually needed, because mithril alone is not strong enough, and at the same time, the quantity is not so much, so according to the traditional craftsmanship of our elves, it is necessary to The mithril and steel are smelted, and the forged mithril steel is the main material for making magic equipment. As for whether to add strengthening materials like star sand during the forging process, it all depends on the conditions at that time, and this starlight Crystal is also a strengthening material, a strengthening material even higher than this star sand level."

"Then you should have tested this mithril steel, right? How does it compare to elemental alloys?"

The production of mithril is not low, so Carl and the others must have tested it. Luo Ji is still very interested in this result.

"It can only be said that each has its own advantages and disadvantages."

Having said that, Carl pondered for a while, as if he was organizing the language.

It is not difficult to understand the properties of Mithril alone. They only need to ask an elf craftsman on the opposite side to find out, but this is not what they want to test, but the various special alloys of Mithril and their Myriad Realms civilization. The fit and pros and cons, as well as the specific data, in order to confirm this intelligence, they need to conduct very tedious tests.

"The power contained in Mithril Steel is purer power that has been stripped of elemental attributes, so as long as it is matched with the corresponding magic crystal or magic core, and supplemented by the elf incantation, it can forge any elemental weapon of any attribute. Very versatile, but weapons forged from elemental alloys are different."

While speaking, Carl took a breath.

"Your Majesty, you should know that elemental alloys have properties. Therefore, a piece of fire elemental alloy can only forge fire elemental weapons. At the same time, some natural environments have more impact on elemental weapons than mithril weapons. Obviously, for example, in the sea, the power of fire element weapons will decrease, of course, there are also advantages, that is, its blessing of specific element effects will be stronger than Mithril weapons."

While speaking, Carl lifted the cloth on the other tray, and then presented a sword inlaid with a second-order wind element magic core to Luo Ji's eyes...
