Chapter 255 Elemental Metals
"Just walk down the path ahead first. It's too ambitious to think about becoming a master now ."
Mo Lan interrupted Lin Wo's thoughts.
“Although I have said it many times, I still want to remind you.
If you can be promoted to the fourth ring within a week, then it is best to decide on the route as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will have no direction and will not know how to work hard, which will waste a lot of time. "
"Well, I think I have a direction."
Lin Wo pointed at the fireball in Mo Lan's hand.
"At least there's some inspiration."
Mo Lan looked at the melted black iron stone and felt confused.
"Elemental metal?"
"It's related to elemental metals. It's a road that no one has taken, but I want to try it."
Mo Lan was quite happy to hear that.
“Then congratulations, it’s good to have a direction. Having a direction means there is meaning in hard work and there is the will to struggle.
As long as you keep moving forward in the direction you choose, the world will not let you down."
"Um."
"Let me first confirm whether this is elemental metal. By the way, do you know how to smelt it?"
Mo Lan remembered something and asked, but saw Lin Wo shaking his head and pointing at the fireball and speaking decisively.
"I think the things that are burned first are definitely not as good as the things that are left, so just burn them. If it doesn't work, it must be because the temperature is not right."
Mo Lan was silent.
"But what if the most precious thing has a lower melting point than other things? Who stipulated that precious things must have a high melting point and high resistance to fire?"
“It’s okay, I can sense that the gold element inside is still there, which means that if there is metal, the metal is still there.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter. I don't need it now. I'll talk about it when I need it. We still have a whole castle of black iron stone. Now we just need to refine the metal inside."
"I actually think what you said makes a lot of sense."
Mo Lan was speechless.
"Yeah, if you think it makes sense, then go ahead. I just tried it, and although it has melted, I still can't separate it in detail. I might as well just burn it."
Mo Lan stopped talking and just silently released the fire element in the fireball and extinguished it.
Then he rebuilt several spell structures in the spell slot, condensed the fire element, released the spell structure, and ignited the fireball again.
Although the previous fireball had a high temperature effect, it actually also had an explosion effect. It was the fireball technique that Mo Lan was preparing to use against the enemy. He had thought that the temperature was enough, but now it seems that he might as well make a fireball technique with only a high temperature effect.
This fireball spell abandons all the frills, and all the fire elements exert force in only one direction - temperature!
Lin Wo was startled the moment the fireball appeared.
This time the fireball was not the usual red, but yellowish-white, giving people a feeling of extremely high temperature at first glance.
The ball of liquid black iron began to boil the moment it was wrapped by the fireball, and wisps of black smoke rose upwards.
Mo Lan used his mental power to wrap up the black smoke and put it in a small glass bottle.
As Mo Lan accumulated power and condensed it, the liquid black iron stone rolled wildly, and puffs of black smoke rose up and were stored in a tank by Mo Lan.
Time passed slowly, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Mo Lan changed several fireballs in his hand for various reasons.
The frequency of black smoke rising is already very low, with only a wisp of smoke rising every few minutes.
As the impurities disappeared, the black iron stone liquid became smaller and smaller, and fine golden lines gradually appeared on the surface of the liquid, giving the liquid a more mysterious and noble color .
The temperature of the fireball in Mo Lan's hand has reached its limit. After dozens of minutes of this high temperature, the black-gold liquid still has not changed at all. The temperature that Mo Lan can reach at this moment is not enough to vaporize the black-gold liquid.
Mo Lan and Lin Wo used their mental power to sense the black and gold liquid, and then looked at each other in surprise.
It seemed that only pure gold element was left in this mass of black and gold liquid, and this little gold element was tightly combined together in a very strange and mysterious structure. Its element density was higher than anything Mo Lan had ever seen.
"I'm afraid we've really found a treasure this time."
Mo Lan murmured.
“Earl Red Maple is blind. This precious metal ore is used as an ordinary stone.
After being refined in this way, the value of this elemental metal is many times greater than that of the elemental stone.
Compared with stone, metal has too many advantages and can do so many things.
Stone tools will always be inferior to metal tools, if the energy channel rate of this black-veined metal is high.
Perhaps we can create true elemental weapons, transcendental weapons."
"No, this metal is the most wasteful to use in making weapons. A metal material with superior properties can do so many things and is too valuable."
Mo Lan said slowly.
"What shape do you want this lump of metal to take? I doubt I'll be able to melt it again once it solidifies.
The properties now are much higher than before when it was ore."
Lin Wo looked at the ball of black and gold liquid the size of his little finger and pondered for a moment.
"There's so little that we can't do anything with it. Let's just shape it into a long, thin stick that has the shapes of a circle, a triangle, a quadrilateral, and a strip. This will make it easier to test."
"good."
Mo Lan nodded, and immediately controlled the black and gold liquid to take shape, removed the fireball, cooled it down, and solidified it.
After solidifying, a thin metal stick about the length of a little finger appeared in front of the two people.
One end of the slender metal stick is cylindrical, the second section becomes a triangle, the third section becomes a square, and the fourth section becomes flat. The metal stick is black all over, with thin and long gold wire patterns interspersed in between, which gives people a very good feeling.
Using the Gale Technique to speed up the cooling, and after making sure the temperature had dropped, Mo Lan weighed it with his hand. It was light, beyond Mo Lan's imagination, and then he tried to introduce elements of different properties into it.
The other elements were directly blocked and not a single bit could pass through. There was no conductivity at all. But when the gold element was input, Mo Lan was instantly shocked by the fact that there was no blockage at all.
And the moment a trace of gold element was injected into it, the metal stick seemed to be activated and instantly became sharp.
"Huh, very strong. Maybe this metal is really suitable for use as a weapon. Once the gold element is injected into the metal, the edges and corners become sharp. There also seems to be other changes, but I can't see them."
Mo Lan said in surprise, and then handed the small black and gold metal stick to Lin Wo.
"Go back and measure the properties of this elemental metal and see what fields it can be applied to and where we can use it. Finally, give it a name and write me an analysis report."
"good."
Lin Wo nodded, and when he was about to leave, Mo Lan suddenly remembered something and called out to him again.
"There is one more thing. If you have time, go to the Eternal Blazing Sun and ask an expert to come over and see if we can build a heat-resistant blast furnace. This thing is more convenient than using magic to practice, and the temperature is higher. It will be useful."
"good."
Lin Wo nodded and left.
