In Master Zaku's more than seventy-year career as a forger, what is most talked about is his exquisite casting method of weapons and armor and his skills in repairing enchanted sets. The Thieves Guild will always remember your immortal achievements, so in This monument was erected to commemorate.
"Huh?" Guan Heng thought about this and suddenly found a few lines of small words at the bottom of the tombstone: "My dear friend Zaku, although we are very different in age, it is my lifelong honor to get to know you. I have found the strange insect-type monster that you couldn’t forget before you died, at the end of the Grand Canyon of Monsters.”
"It's a pity that when I hurried back here, you had already passed away. Zaku, my friend, only you deserve to own this strange insect, so I used magic to put the insect into dormancy, and Buried under your tombstone with your best friends."
"However, insect-shaped monsters are also living creatures created by God. I don't want them to turn into decaying dust here after endless years, because it is too cruel to arbitrarily deprive a life of its right to survive."
"No matter how many years later, if someone is destined to find my message while sweeping the grave of my friend Zhagu, it means that the strange insects have been with my friend for a long enough time, and the day has come for them to see the light of day again. Please have the destiny to do so. People took this insect-shaped monster away and put it to good use. The above are the words of the half-elf Chakan."
"Is this a message from Chakan?!" Guan Heng was shocked when he saw this: "The footprints of this half-elf appraisal master are really everywhere. He and Zaku, the greatest forging master of the Thieves Guild, are actually close friends. "
Although Guan Heng and Chakan have never met, since Guan Heng set foot on the land of Ashton Continent, Chakan has benefited a lot from the inheritance of the black iron wood staff, the appraiser badge and the great appraisal technique. All thanks to Chakan.
"Now, I see Chakan's message here again..." Guan Heng stroked it gently: "It's like an invisible line pulling between me and him."
…
Half a minute later, Guan Heng dug a shallow pit in front of Master Zaku's tombstone. There were two things in it: a wooden box containing various small tools such as hammers and chisels. It looked like the one used by Master Zaku during his lifetime. The advanced tool that made Heinz salivate.
The other one was a hexahedron shining with metallic light. It was kneaded from a piece of clay. Guan Heng was no stranger to this thing.
This object was accidentally fused by Chakan when he was conducting alchemy experiments. It has a strange function, that is, it can repair the gaps and cracks in various precious metal props.
Any metal with cracks, as long as you lightly apply some gypsum powder on the cracked part, the place will be intact as before. However, it has not been officially named, nor has it been shown to the world. Looking for the whereabouts of the five main gods, they mysteriously disappeared with plaster.
Therefore, except for Chakan and Guan Heng, who inherited part of his inherited memories, no one knew this strange plaster at all.
Guan Heng looked at the strange gypsum hexahedron in his hand and shook it slightly, and found that there was a clanging sound inside. It was something rolling inside.
"Hmm... what exactly is inside here?" Guan Heng was a little curious. At this moment, he found an inconspicuous "paper corner" leaking out of the small wooden box containing Zhagu tools. Guan Heng twisted it with his fingers. Zhu gently pulled it out, "Plop!" It turned out to be a booklet stored in the mezzanine of the wooden box.
"Huh? It turns out these are Master Zaku's notes during his lifetime." Guan Heng casually opened it and read it, and suddenly found some very interesting things recorded on it.
Zhagu's notes were all about his experience in forging various utensils in his life. Guan Heng was not very interested in those, he just read them and took notes. However, the last few pages of the notes gave Guan Heng a sudden realization. a feeling of.
In his later years, Zaku read some ancient books and learned that there was a strange insect-shaped monster in the Grand Canyon of Warcraft. This kind of strange insect beast usually lives in a group of dozens. It has an unremarkable appearance and is no bigger than a grain of rice. It has six flexible claws. They are the smartest among the insect-type monsters. Their name is "The Foundry Worm".
The claws of the Founder Bug are extremely dexterous, and their heads have countless compound eyes. Their greatest interest is to repair things. For example, if there is a crack in a stone or a tree, the Founder Bug will swarm over and repair it in an instant. The strange crystals it spits out from its mouth fill the gaps in rocks or trees.
Since the Forge Worm is an omnivorous monster, it can eat meat, metal, trees or ores. Some undigested food residues become the Forge Worm's idle time, spitting it out to fill the gaps in objects. of crystals.
In ancient times, some forging masters, in order to repair the scars on some enchanted props or ordinary weapons and armor that were difficult to detect with the naked eye, captured and trained some "smith bugs" and asked them to help repair the damaged parts of weapons and armor.
There is no doubt that the Forger Bug is an excellent assistant to human forgers. Later, the Forger Bug domesticated by humans can not only repair tools, but can even help cast simple and easy weapons and armors. This result directly contributed to a large number of forgers. Craftsmen appear next to humans.
The Forge Worm is intelligent, has a high level of understanding, and is hard-working and capable. He can even continue working without rest or food for more than a month. Over the course of hundreds of years, it has become an indispensable treasure for the Forge Master, especially When repairing and manufacturing large quantities of armed defense equipment, the Forge Worms show their talents even more.
However, in a natural disaster that later occurred in the Grand Canyon of Warcraft, the habitat of the Caster Bug group was severely damaged. There was a lack of food for the young nymphs, and the reproductive rate was greatly reduced due to the break in the racial gene chain. Most of the wild The Forge Worm...is extinct.
The gradual extinction of wild caster bugs did not alarm people. Instead, they intensified their use of artificially raised caster bugs, as if they were sucking out their bones and marrow. Finally, more than thirty years after the extinction of wild caster bugs, finally A captive-bred foundry bug also died alone in the workshop.
People once again paid a heavy price for their short-sightedness, that is, allowing strange insect-shaped monsters such as the Forge Worm to be annihilated in their memories...
Zhagu, the master forger, read the information about the prosperity and decline of the Forge Worm from ancient books, and he couldn't help but sigh. He never forgot to go to the Grand Canyon of Warcraft to find the source of the Forge Worm, but he was always too weak and sick to make the long journey. , so the trip failed.
