Chapter 68 68. Melting Iron
"It can be done this way." Lodel found it very interesting, but he didn't know the consequences of losing the initiative.
Lovey didn't hold back. In the next few rounds, he sent out his cavalry to use a double chariot to kill the soldiers and went straight for the kill.
Lodel also wanted to use the King to eat up Lowe's cavalry, but of course it was impossible.
She had been killed! Unable to move, she was forced to admit defeat.
Lodel stared at the chessboard in silence.
Lovi spoke with a victorious attitude: "Dale, it seems that you are not very smart. You'd better be obedient and don't act on your own."
"Lovi, you can't use your despicable tricks on me a second time." Lodel said angrily.
"We agreed that if you lose three games, you have to behave yourself for a month. You only have one last chance." Lovey still concealed the smugness on his face, ready to defeat Lodel's arrogance in one fell swoop.
"Wait! I need to think about it again." Lodel suddenly calmed down.
The two losses were too fast, leaving her no room to fight back. If her chess skills didn't improve, the third game wouldn't end well.
Lovey's recent actions have completely overturned Lodel's previous preconceived impression of him.
This is a super cunning opponent!
If you are not careful, even the invincible female general will capsize.
"How long do you want to think?" After waiting for a few minutes, Lowe became a little impatient.
"Don't be so complacent. Wait a few days and try to win another game." Lodel said angrily.
"You should win against Misha first," Lowe said calmly.
Indeed, we should start with the easy and then move on to the difficult. Lodel remained calm and took the initiative to place the chess pieces: "Mixia, please don't hold back."
Mixia hummed softly: "I will definitely work hard."
The two sides are now opponents of the same level. Mixia has been watching the chess games of several people and has gained new insights. The moves are more inclined to skills.
Lodel is very aggressive and has an outstanding overall view. Sometimes he is clearly at a disadvantage, but he can somehow seize the opponent's flaws and turn defeat into victory.
"One to one."
Luo Wei drank the soy milk handed to him by Lan Lan and announced the scores. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something and looked at the window behind him.
Evelin sat on the magic carpet and flew in through the window without regard for etiquette: “Son, come and see if this is coke.”
She summoned a grayish-white stone from her bag. I heard it was poisonous, so she didn't touch it directly.
Luo Wei was not very clear either: "Is there any oil seeping out of your oven?"
“A lot.” Evelin said solemnly.
"I don't know if it's a finished product. If a lot of oil comes out, you must bake it dry thoroughly. Don't leave any moisture." Lowe gave a general description.
"The water inside was all dried up. Mossofi baked it for a long time."
"Then let's get Mosophie back first, and bring back the roasted charcoal as well."
Evelin shook the cloth bag in her hand: “I put all the roasted coke in it.”
Luo Wei suddenly remembered that this was a space bag. It looked small and couldn't hold many things, but it actually had a volume of several cubic meters.
I don't know what the principle is? Anyway, it's all magic. Evelyn took Lovi to the blacksmith shop and dumped all the coke in a corner: "This should be enough for a while, right?"
In fact, it didn't take too long. Lowe said ambiguously: "Almost."
"Mosophee will bring back another batch soon. Can we start the furnace first?" Evelyn asked anxiously.
"I don't know how to forge iron either!" Lowe spread his hands.
"I don't need you to forge iron. Just find a way to raise the fire and melt the iron." Evelyn couldn't wait any longer: "Forget it, I'll do it myself."
She pulled out a magic wand from her sleeve and flicked it to send the coke into the forge. Then she summoned a flame to ignite the coke.
The surface of the coke turned red, and Evelyn roughly threw the iron ore in: "How long will it take to melt?"
"I don't know." Lovey knew nothing about anything and just opened the window of the blacksmith shop to prevent the two from getting carbon monoxide poisoning.
When the coke burns, there is no smoke. Evelyn seemed to feel the temperature rising, and her eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Very good, very good, keep it up"
She kept throwing iron ore into the furnace until it was full.
Time passed in the tense waiting.
After all the coke changes color, the temperature continues to rise to new heights.
The iron ore began to show signs of melting, and the surface looked like a mass of mud.
Evelyn looked solemn, not daring to look away for a moment, and raised her wand towards the molten iron.
Drops of molten iron slowly floated into the air and gradually gathered into a liquid iron ball.
In an instant, the liquid iron ball changed and a large distiller took shape.
The volume is several times larger than Lowe's silver wine distiller.
Evelyn moved the iron wine distiller into the cold water. A white mist rose and bubbles rolled on the water surface.
The shape of the wine distiller solidifies.
"It's done!" Evelyn cheered like a girl.
With the experience gained from the first time, the second time became much easier. Evelyn filled the furnace with iron ore and called for the servants to bring cold water.
She worked tirelessly to make six wine distillers, and the coke slowly burned out.
Evelin raised her sleeve to wipe the sweat from her forehead and said to Lowe proudly, “Well, I’m awesome, right?”
Lovi looked at the different sized wine steamers and felt a headache. I wanted to calculate the conversion ratio of iron to coke, but forget it. When Mosuofei is forging iron in the future, tell him to pay attention.
There is also the problem of iron tools rusting easily, which cannot be solved for the time being.
Not to mention things like 304 stainless steel.
At most, he put forward the concept of an alloy, leaving it to later generations to study and explore.
At dusk, Mossoff returned panting and dragging a cart of coke. He was a little bit unbelievable when he learned that Evelyn had already refined the distilling furnace.
"Master, is the iron really melted?"
"Yeah, you did a good job." Lovey patted Mosophie's shoulder.
Mosophie turned his head to look at the setting sun and sighed softly: "Times have changed!"
The day when Coke appeared was unremarkable.
No one knows the significance of melting iron to human civilization. Lordelle held the dragon egg and found Evelyn and said, "Mother, can you give the dragon some magic power?"
"Of course no problem." Evelyn was in a good mood and casually input a large amount of magic power. She was much more generous than the stingy Lovey.
After the young dragon absorbed the magic power, it fell into a deep sleep.
Evelyn leaned over to take a look, with a look of great interest on her face: "Dale, I feel like this is a magic dragon, very rare."
"How does the magic dragon rank among the real dragons?"
"It's about average. It depends on training. A magic dragon without inheritance is very weak. It may not even be able to defeat a white dragon or a green dragon. A magic dragon with inheritance is quite powerful and has a very high upper limit."
